Do,oa B,eaks.-There are a class Of men
in the world who are always getting into
trouble. No matter where they are or how
situated in life they are always in Difficult,
ty-apparently always on the alert after troub-
lie. The moment they are at peace with the
rest of mankind they are at oddS-ends with
themselves. A very disagrecable element in
mans nature, surely. We have our quota
of such ,aca in this community. Every few
days we have the proof of it. 1t was only
the other evening that young man Of bonn
bast and selfassurance came near losing his
life, and, what was perhaps worse than that,
destroying considerable property, by having
the existence Of this element strongly exem-
plitied in his nature. When the train came
in on Monday evening this young man was
at the depot, aid, wishing to get nts trouble,
he volunteered his services to run car of
lumber down to GooDnuE's Lumber Yard
Foolishly enough the offer was accepted, and
young man mounted the car, received good
start from the iron horse, and away he sped
toward the river at q fearful rate. As he
passed the Yard the cry was raised " down
brakes" but young man wanted to get into
trouble, and he didn't q down brakes" On
he went toward the roaring waters of the Co.
dar, and evidently there was nothing between
him and death. and smashedup cars, but
bunting post and small car. On he came
watched the needless youth, feeling assured
that the next moment all would be dashed to
destruction. OF a sudden sense Of danger
came over the youth and he grappled the
brake and struggled with it vigorously. But
too late. Blunt came the loaded car against
the little car at the end OF the track,
which shot up the bunting post like rocket.
Blunt again--crash went the post. But mi
raculously it was sufficient for the task and
there, on the brink Of destruction all came to
. halt. 1t is remarkable that the car with
its breaksman were not percipita,cd into the
river. The post which was very heavy one,
framed in, was wrenched from its position,
and bent to an angle Of forty.five degrees
As it was no serious damage was DONE
Young man thinks he will not volunteer as
brakesman again. We advise him not to,
and furthermore we advise him to mind his
own business and keep out of trouble.
