"Oh carry me back,” not to ol4 Vlrgray—
but to tboaconM of. my yoath. I met aaold
friend la Atlanta the other day, and before we
knew it we were talking of oar youthful
frolics, when tho rozy bluah of Ufa was upon
as and the world was bright and bountiful and
we bad great expectations of still happier days
to come. Bat they never, never
came, and now it Is a sweet, though
tad consolation to let memory
back and for a time refresh ns with the pleas
ures that will nover return. What a pity,
what a pity that yoath does not realize her
own enjoyments. Wo look upon oar children
ts they ploy and frolio around ns, and rejoice
In tbelr innocent pleasures, and It grieves us
to think, yea, to know, that there Is trouble In
store for them all. I wish that we could avert
it, but we cannot, and tho best we eon do Is to
prepare them for it as gently and os tenderly as
we can. "By and by my boy I will loavo
yon, and you will miss mo, and and then yon
will have to light tho battle of ltfo alone, and
not have mo to lean upon. Yon will miss my
love and counsel and my companionship, and
then the world will seem cold and lonely for
awhile until yon get usod to It. I want to live
toa good old ago for yonr sake, my boy, so that
yon may have st least one friend when trouble
comes." This Is all I any, and I do not lay It
often to my children, for It saddens them, and
a big lamp gets In my throat, and I changa
the subject quickly to drive the cloud away.

Woll, that la so, oxoctly so. Of conreo tho
boys will miss a great many good things that
happen every dsy and eveyy night m Atlanta,
but there Is time enough—time enough for all
thst. They will go to town once or twice in

homes and firesides. "Stag to mo

of course, but one day afterwards I ventured
to remark that her effort reminded me of a boy
trying to play a tone on a spilt goose qnlll. I
■aid that to get even, for ono timo when I was
oat on the piazza tad tried to zing "Bockod la
the Cradle of tho Deep," »ho asked the chil
dren whether their pa was singing or snor

It dwell.” If I can't make It, I lave It and it
seema to me that I con poos away more aweotly

The preochert tell ns thst all these shows
are linral and wo should not attend them or
n encouragement. T—
to temptation and vll
tlte for better things, and
food and fine clothes and too
much company. There are many
things that lead onr frail bodins ‘Into tempta
tions that are not within thomselres sinful.
The time was, I remember, when cards were
andertheban.andso was the fiddle and a
id a ring, or a breastpin, or
hair, or upon the bonnet, when
a preacher could qot dress os Bam Jones does
now, or own a photon or let hta boy sport on a
Shetland pony. It is not tho nan wit tho
abuse of privileges and pleas
ures that make* them sinful *nd
I sm not phltanthopist enough to forego *11
worldly pleuuren to please the preachers. If
others choose to make a cacrifi ael say may the
Lord bless yon and comfort you. The open
or th* play of Hamlet or Macbeth or She
Stoops to Conquer may shock the piety and
devotion of some, bnt they are refining and
grateful pleasure to mo. I have hoard preach
ers tell inimitable anecdotes and I enjoyed
them. Jaot so I enjoy the wit of the endman
In n negro minstrel show. Bat now comm the
iMson of life, for there U a lesson tn every
thing. The yonth of thla age indulge too much
In rack things. In onr cities they wont to go
every night, and moat all who ean do go. I
overheard a gentleman asy the other night: "I
see ladles here who have not paid their wash-
fug bills for a month.’’ The troth is thst peo
ple get into a habit of going and they can’t
stay sway. With many it Is their chief Joy
for they are miserable at homo. Let homo be
made happy snd neither parent! nor children
will leave it often for any kind of a show. It
is not the theatre thst is the sin, bat it la some
other sin that takas them there to escape from
misery or ennui for a time. Too much plo or
too much ice cream or too mnch tobacco
or too much fine dressing or too
much vbltlng or too much 'scolding and
fretting st homo ore all sins, and Just so Is too
ranch decoration at shows and the theatre.
The sin comes In Jnst where we abuse the
gifts of God, whether It be trine or tobacco or
cards or the dance. I see that a maa has de
nounced Bam Small with exceeding bitterness
for smoking, and Bam replied that If anybody
could show him that smoking cigarettes had
ever kept a seal out of heaven ho would quit.
That wsa a very poor renly to a very malig

do know that tho use of tobacco by boys is on

that ever ftthermakes. The example of one
great and good man lost* a long time, and to
my opinion there Is many a Methodist preach,

Lovick Pearce did. The old man used wine
and tobacco habitually but he never abused
them. He lived far noar a century and la*
bored in season and out of season and nobody

THE DANIEL BOYS.
The Potter People Declare Jack Daniel to Bar*

Dog-Thief-The Murder of Wm. Potter
-Part Played by Widow Blppay.
Little Bock, Ark., February 83.—[8pecl*l.]
Jackeon It. Notes, of Cedar Glades,having read
the recent story of Jock Daniel, tho Yell county
murderer, new a fugitive fromjastteeia Jack-
son county, Georgia, givu the following story
concerning the same events:
The autumn of 1881 found this put of tho
country in perfect peace and harmony. Tbo
appearance of Jack Daniel, who stated that
be was looking out * locality upon which
he wonld plant hta family an soon as he cou''
go to Saline and convey it here, changed all
anarchy. He rede aronnd through
the country an a shaft wagon, polled by an
old horse. He selected a place on Cedar Sack
branch, which to about fear mtles’in length,
the valley of which to about* half mile in
width containing no land of fertilo apperunae,
and in a mountainous desert, which to thirty
miles in length and ten wide, peaaesstug fine
range for horse*, tattle, hogs, etc. The bounds
of this desert were daily crossed by the stock
of the farmers who live near it. Jack soon re
turned to Saline connty ahd immediately
came back to Cedar Buck, accompanied by A.
M. Bsntsay and the Widow Blppy, They set
about the Improvement of claims. Jack erec
ted a rail pen which served him os a dwelling.
Abont the some time one Blacker, a rosldont
of Montgomery county, come and built n li
hot on the source of tho branch, and i
his family into it
DR. EMORY PUT OUT OP THE WAY.
In July, 1883, Dr. Emory moved near I
claim. Jack sought means by which he might
remove Dr. Emory, claiming that the doctor
was interfering with hta chum. Daniel wrote
Dr. Emory a note, stating If he did not pay
him one hundred dollars for the elaim that
he wonld shoot an onneo ball through him be
fore sunset and (too stated that he would kill
Mr. Potter because he believed him
to be concerned In tho matter. Jack made
turtle halt of Dr. Emory's only milk oow, Jnst
after tho threat Dr, Emory did not remain
long, bnt moved away in October following. It
seems that Daniel and Blocker soon became
Intimate friends and seemed to be comfortably
situated In regard to their aflkln. The au
tumn of of 1888 witnessed the appearance of
Bud Daniel (Jack’s brother Jim), who set up*
very scanty abode near Jack’* residence. Tire
three men soon became Independent of the «ut-
rounding settlements as though they were mil.
lionairos. '
CONCERNING THK CLAUS OP THE COUNTRY.
Tha citizens of Yell connty zzk leave to con.
tradict the out lawn concerning dans |or
clique* in this section. They boldly assert thst
no clan hat ever been known to exist In their
midst nve the outlaw clan. They atao ny
thst if any citizen con be foand in thte
country who will tezti* " '
tho existence of* clan
clzn, that he ohall have s one hundreddoltar

COMMENCEMENT Of TROUBLE.
In tbs winter of 1888 the people found that
their stock was being nightly stolen. William

Daniel’s lot. The thieves hod been for some
time running meat wagons to tho Hot Springs
market, but were not suspected of stealing lk
Intense excitement raged through tho coun

hog thieves, snd only met with deflanco and
insult. They woald not give up tho he
visitors returned to their homc& went
ond time, secured and brought their own home,
leaving thp thieves In great anger.
THE ASSASSINATION OF I'OTTER.
This led to tho assassination of William Pot
ter, who wu ono of tho owners of the
stolen preporty. He wu always
industrious!!:! providing sustentnea for hta
ftmlly, which wu almost suffering from pov
erty. Mr. Potter wu a man of honest toll, de
pendent upon hta dally labor, and a man la
whom all of hta neighbor! placed implicit eon-
fidenco. Ono bright April morning, In 1883,
Mr. Potter caught his horse and went to hta
field u usual. He know that Jock Daniel hod
malice against him beaaaae of the Emory elan,
•nd tha stolen property, and a slight sltla of
Jealousy which arose between them tn winter
of 1881, because of tho Widow Hippy.
About 10 o’clock *. m., the desperadoes ar
posted at the side of Mr. Potter's field, uoret.
ed themselves In ambush, and when Hr. Pot
ter come near the fence they ordered him to
come ont. Tho deceased told them that he
wonted to go to the house and see hta wife snd
children.
"Yon shall never «eo them again)’’ said the
outlaws; snd u Mr. Potter started to crow tho
fence the fire of two gun* wu heard, and cne
tall entered Potter, pierced him through, and
Ufe wu soon extinct.
Immediately after tho Are of the guns, Pot
ter began screaming from the tho sting of
death, and to hta assistance ran hta wife snd
eldcat daughter. As Min Hooey ran to her dy
ing bther, she heard the assasolns running
across tbo creek which ran near the field.
