A NOBLE Acr.-The Milwaukee News
of last week records as follows one of the
bravest and noblest acts ever performed by
a railroad engineer:
On Wednesday last, as the train on the
La Crosse Railroad was coming east, and
when about mile east of Cambria, the en-
gineer saw little boy about five years
old on the track. He Immediately whistl-
ed to ''brake," and reversed the engine, but
as it was on down grade, he soon found
he could not stop the train, which when
the child was first seen, was under full
motion. The engineer stationed himself
on the forepart of the locomotive, and
watching his chance, jumped ahead of the
engine snatching the boy from the track,
and thus saved his life. The train passed
on some distance before it stopped. The
name of the engineer is L. T. Meade, who
deserves unequaled praise for his noble act.
There are few men that possess the courage
and the nerve to perform such feat. But
he is rewarded, for the pleasure to such a
man of having saved the life of 'fsome ones
little boy" is infinite. Take it altogether,
is the best and noblest act of engineering
that we lave heard of.

Renfs Goming Down.

The hard times are tu,nbling down rents
as well as other things. Good tenants are
now at premium in this city. A number
of landlords, in view of the falling off in
business of their tenants, and the financial
pressure bearing upon the trading and
producing classes, have voluntarily reduced
their rents, some one-third. 1t is out of
the question to expect that tenants can
pay the prices charged last spring without
great sacrifice. 1t is pressing the life's
blood out of business men to force them
to continue the enormous rentals exact
ed last May, when tenants supposed
that money would be plenty and times
prosperous. Nor is it morally right or
just to employ legal coersion 10 squeeze out
of them these exorbitant demands. ~
Vacant rooms and stores can now be had
from 25 to SO PEE cent cheaper than was
asked six months ago. One instance came
under our observation this week, of store
room in a fine block located on Sotth Wa
ter str. ct being rented for $4,000, for
which the owner demanded $4,000 last
spring. Rents must come down to level
with the profits of trade Chicago Isfb-
une.

AFFECTING INcIDENTs.-The editor of
the New York Independent, in the leading
article of that paper of last week, says;
"a friend of ours was called upon the
other day for assistance, by the wife Of a
mechanic, saddler, who had work enough
at this season of the year, with ample wa
ges, but who was now entilely out of en-
ployment. The gentleman offered to give
the husband work, for day at least, in
his own cellar, splitting wood, piling coal,
DC. But the man had pawned his last
coat for trltte-as well as his watch, and
>all his turnlture-and must borrow another
before he could come. The next day be
came, in the genleman's absence, and
worked till afternoon; when, lust as he
was leaving the house, he asked the do
mestics to give him some bread, if thew
had any, as he had eaten nothing till then
all day, Another friend of ours was COM
PEELED the other day to dismiss nine of the
men employed by him in manufacturing a
certain article. Said be, 81 dismissed all
the unmarried ones, and shall retain the
Others as long as can. But it was pitiful
to see the suspence and fear of those men as
l went up to pay them last Saturday night.
Their faces actually whitened before me,
in the evening light; they could not look
me IN the face, fearing / should say had
10 more work for them"

Coles Account of his Escape.

Hiram Cole, charged with wife poison
ing, is indignant at the statement of officer
Pomeroy touching his escape from him
and Rich at the Jarvis House, Chicago,
and pronounces it essentially false" in a
communication to the Chardon Democrat.
He denies the breaking of the axle, upset.
ting of the omnibus, and firing of pistols,
as stated by Pomeroy, and declares that
there was nothing extraordinary about his
escape whatever. Cole says.
Arriving at the Depot, We went into the
Jarvis House. l arose from my seat be-
side Mr.. Rich and walked to the door; saw
Mr.. Pomeroy, at the same time, in the
Bar Room; (do not know what he was do
ing.) l walked out on to the sidewalk,
paused moment and then walked away.
l looked around and saw Mr.. Pomeroy go
around the corner; soon saw him again
pass within three rods of me in company
with Rich. Did not notice that Mr.. Rich's
leg was broken, as be was walking very
fast at the time.
walked on until l came to building
partly completed; walked in and went up
stairs, and looked out of the window; saw
men that seemed to be looking around af-
ter something.
About five o'clock in the afternoon, l
walked out Of the city, and took the cars
about nine miles from Chicago, at ten
o'clock in the evening. Saw Mr.. Smart, a
police officer, who, in company with Mr.
Williams, was after me. He passed near
me several times IN the cars.
On arriving at Joliet got off from the
cars. Did not see Mr.. Williams on that
train, but have since learned that he was
there. The third day from this, l again
took the cars, and arrived at St. Louis at
twelve o'clock at night, where l immedi-
ately obtained situation as clerk in
store on Market street.
Cole evidently attributes his escape to a
special Providence. for after asserting his
innocence he says-"the same Spirit which
led me forth from the custody of Messrs.
Rich and Pomeroy, will stand by me in
the day of trial, and triumphantly deliver
me-" The "iaw and testimony" will doubt
less decide Coles case when submitted to
a Geauga jury.

An Affecting Scene..A Br0ther,s
Iova.. A SisfeH3s Shame

4
A friend relates 10 us an affecting Incl:
dent which occurred al Xenia on Wednes-
day. Amongst the passengers in the train
from Cleveland, was young man of per-
haps twenty, and lady some few years
his senior. The gentleman was plainly
clad, but the girl was dressed IN the ex-
treme of fashion, and rouged beyond even
brazen wantonness. 1t was frequently OBJ
served by the passengers that the young
man appeared to be earnestly remonstra-
ting with the girl, and seemed to be deep
ly affected. At Xenia, both left the cars,
and it was apparent that the course of each
lay in different directions-the man to this
city, and the girl to the West. As the
cars were about starting, the young man
kissed her hasty good bye, and both
hurst into tears. The conductor, seeing
that there was some deep grief at heart,
invited the gentleman to seat in the bag
gage cal, as more secluded from the gaze
Of the crowd. aAny where said be, only
come with me. l must speak to some one,
or my heart will break" Er
After becoming little Gained, he said:
"That lady and myself were raised togeth-
er; with moss for carpets, acorns for cups
and saucers, and pebbles for walks, We
played in childhood. She was few years
older than myself, but we were inseperable.
She grew up to womanhood, was married,
then separated from her husband and
sought the city, and became wanton,
heartless disgraced eourtezan. STEPPED in
sin as she is, shameless as she may be, /
could not but kiss her goodbye, for she is,
my sister! She has already hurried a lor
ing mother to the grave, and brought dis
grace upon her brothers and sisters. But
while she acknowledges it all, and sheds
tears of apparent contrition and regret, no
remonstrance can change her course. She
has just been home to make us visit, but
has left again for her residence in the city,
TO drown in the wanton's life the remem-
brance of what she was and what she might
have been. Do you blame me, then"
tarning to the sympathizing conductor,
"for weeping as do, over one SO loved
and fallen?" 1t was no tale of felton,
1t was painful truth. Fallen, disgraced,
and shameless, she still shared brothers
love, who would win her back to virtues
path at any sacrifice. A brief career of
pleasure, and we shall find the erring sister
amongst the daily ha5itues of the Police
Court and prison.-C Cincinnati Gazette.
