A row and free fight took place
in Ebenezer Methodist church,
Weldon, on the 21st over a mar-
that was to take place at
the close of the services. The
father and brothers of the young
ladies objecting to the marriage
and forced their way to the groom
and then fight began. The
sheriff who tried to prevent the
disturbance was knocked down,
men piled upon each other in the
aisle and women screamed. When
quiet was restored the couple
were married by a justice instead
of by two clergymen as intended.
The disgraceful affair broke
a revival which was being held in
the church.
DEBTS OF HONOR.
Debts of honor, so called, are
those unknown to the law and
cannot be collected by legal
process. Among them are debts
contracted at the gambling table
or in other forms of betting, and
the security is simply that of in
obligation
of the same kind. Whatever the
law regard as contrary to public
policy comes under tin's bead, the
law declining to assist in corrupt-
the people by legitimatizing
such transactions. In European
countries the debts which Have
only moral instead of legal
are more numerous than in
this country. A series of reports
from United States consuls on this
feature of the laws of foreign
countries has been recently pub-
in answer to a circular
from the National Board of Trade-
This circular asked the consuls to
collect evidence as to what debts
are not by law in the
various countries and to state how
they are generally paid. The an-
reveal some interesting lo-
cal customs.
The general summary shows
that though debts of honor are
outside the legal pale they are
usually paid in full, the penalty
for refusing payment being that
delinquent debtor is
ed by the clubs and other
which provide the means
for contracting the obligations.
This appears to follow the gen-
rule, for in all parts of the
world such debts are ordinarily
paid, even though debtor is
execution proof and refuses to
pay what the law would otherwise
compel him to pay. In Sweden
bills are debts of honor,
as they also are in Austria, while
in the latter country a lawyer's fee
that reaches the amount of the
property in litigation has no stand-
in court. China has a long
schedule of debts of honor, among
them being services rendered by
physicians, dentists, priests, for
tune-tellers, clairvoyants and
and moneys loaned at rates
exceeding the legal rate of inter-
est- It is regarded as a disgrace
to be a or to supply a
drunkard with liquor, so that
drinking debts are extremely rare-
On this point the consul at
says that when such debts do ex-
the creditor is both ashamed
and afraid to acknowledge the
fact, and, as a natural consequence
to take any steps toward the en-
of his rights. In both
Germany and France a man may
be sued for a drinking debt- Few
European bankrupts ever pay in
full, perhaps because those who
can do so do not fail in business.
Bankruptcy does not relieve the
Russian debtor, who must pay
whenever he is able to do so. In
Russia and Greece debts never
outlaw. In France outlawed debts
are seldom paid. In Belgium, of
six hundred and twenty bankrupts
in a period of ten years only
twelve were rehabilitated-
Though in many European
countries the winner of a bet can-
not enforce collection in the courts
there are some exceptions to the
rule. In Italy, the Netherlands,
Russia and Spain the laws en-
force the payment of bets made
on athletic contests, such as foot-
ball, cricket, racing, etc., the ex-
being evidently made to
encourage the athletic sports to
which the youth do not take very
kindly. The moral seems to be
from all this, the less law there is
in some instances to compel the
payment of an obligation the
more scrupulous debtor is to
discharge it. There are few in-
stances where gambling debts and
others outside the protection of
the law are not promptly met if it
is within the power of the debtor.
It is this that preserves the
occupation, since if bid debt-
ors were not held by something
outside the law itself the debts
would never be paid, and
would not pay those who
win. It is a peculiar state of
fairs which shows men more will-
to pay such debts than they
are to pay those recognized by
the Journal.

by Lightning.
During the year 1891 two
and five lives were lost we
know in the United States, east
of the Rocky mountains, directly
through the action of lightning.
How many were lost indirectly, and
how many cases there were of shat-
health and more or less per-
injury, we can only surmise.
The financial loss duo directly to
lightning was certainly not below
one and a half million dollars. To
get at something like a commercial
estimate of the damage done by
lightning in the past few years, in
this country, I have made use of the
Chronicle fire tables for the six
years 1885-1890, and find that some
twenty-two hundred and twenty-
three fires, or 1.3 per cent, of the
whole number, were caused by
lightning, and the total was
i, or 1.25 per cent, of the
whole amount lost by fire. During
1892 we have a record of two
and ninety-two lives lost. The
damage may be estimated at as high
a figure as in 1891. These losses are
the more appalling when we recall
that the year is virtually Less than
six months. Over ninety-five per
cent, of the casualties due to light-
occur between the months
April and September. It is there-
fore quite pertinent at this time to
discuss the question whether or not

October is a famous month for fires,
made so from the fact that as cold
comes on people start fires in stoves
and fire places that have been out of
use for several months without
to see if everything about them is
safe. Proper care in this particular
night save many conflagrations.
It strikes us that if the Town
would put a good sized tiling at

would last for years and need no re-
pairing.

About Personal Items.
The older the Reflector gets the
stronger it grows in the belief that there
is something very much alike in people
the world over. used to think that
possibly no other paper had just
circumstances to contend with that we
did, an-1 that our people must be a little
different from people elsewhere. Time
and time again in its history has it met
with complaint that this item or that
item did not appear in the
column, and many times we have ex-
plained that in no instance was the
to blame, as he was always glad
to print such items when they came to
his knowledge. We wondered why this
was so, that people not make the
slightest effort to bring an arrival or de-
to the attention of the editor,
and yet complain when such I not
pear in being even so
as to take offense at the
omission. But we have learned that all
papers have about this same trouble,
and that people at one place are just
like they are everywhere else.

subject recently appeared in the

those people and their friends often-

they have been ignored for some reason
and think the editor has a spite against
them. Now this editor has his hands

he sat at the receipt of custom. He has
no lime to meet trains or stand on
street corners and watch for strange
faces. He gets his information largely
from friends who are kind enough to
tell him about things. you
