4 Father Sacrifices His Sous Life to
Save \ Passenger Train. 4,


A most notable and wonderful instance
of devotion to duty was shown by the
bridgeman on the Newark and New Jersey
Railroad yesterday-indeed, a devotion
that seems unnatural, for the man in qucs-
ton sacrificed his sons life. to save the
lives of others. ,.... :. ..''...
James Decker, the man in question, is
employed to opon and close tho drawbridge
on the Passaic river. Yesterday morning,
Decker, ~ uanal was employed upon tho
bridge, accompanied by his son, lad Of
ten years. Some vessels requiring to go
up the stream the bridge was opened by
pecker2 and the boats permitted to pass
through. F."
There was not much time to spare In
closing tho bridge, train being due there
tnrn. 1o% s .ble and wSay within
yards of it, proper position Decker heard
the shrill whistle of tho locomotive on its
way to the Jersey depot. At almost the
Same moment he hoard q cry for help COM
ing from beneath tho bridge, and looking
down into the water he observed with hor.
ror, that his son had fallen into the river
and WAS struggling for life. He could
easily have jumped down into tho water
and saved his boy, but tho train was COM
ing on at a rapid pace and the bridge was
still open, and to save his sen WAS to in.
sure the destruction of tho train.
Parental love is strong, and it was strong
in Decker; tho first impulse Of the fathe,
was to leave tho train to its fate and save
tho boy, but the devotion to duty oyercame
parental affection, and he instantly deter.
mined to save the train by closing the
bridge. The draw was arranged with all
the speed possible, and then Decker rush
ed to tho assistance of his child, but it was
too late, for the boy had sunk, to be seen nc
moro alive. He .o',t.;nad assistance: md W
few minutes recovered the body Of the
poor little ono Great indeed was tho
hthor's griof although he did not regret
the decision that ended his sons life. This
is an event almost without parallel, and
seems quito as improbable as are many O.
the scenes described in the yellow-covereG
literature of tho day. There are few Deck
ers in the world. His action was so thor
oughly unselfish, SO noble, as to appear
not only improbable, but unnatural. -Nea

Aqnatic-An Opinion by by one or the
()xfOrlIS

Frank William, member Of the Oxford
GROW, writes to tho London Times, kindly
explaining why the Harvards were not
worse beaten, As follows:
"leeluctant NJ am to take any notice of
what may appear in the papers after a boat
race, and especially ono in which have
myself been engaged, l cannot allow tho
letters which Sir Aubury Paul las address.
ed to tho Times aud other papers to pass
without some explanation. Ho writes to
say that the Oxford crew won Inst
Friday by length and thrce-quarters,
instead of four, ascommonly reported. Now,
rs nearly all the newspaper accounts give
the distance at four lengths, this appears
a direct contradiction, and it il this con-
tradiction which wish to explain. Sir
Aubrey Paul was chosen by tho Harvard
crew Az judge at the finish Of tho race, than
whom nm sure a moro upright Judge
could hot be found, and what 10 states
believe to be correct However,. wish to
explain how we came to DO only a length
ond thrce quarters ahead ut tho finish,
which, from my position In bow of the boat
l think am competent to do. just by the
ship at 1Iortlake We we're as near
al could Judge, four or five lengthu in
front; but hero row-boat (Which has been
mentioned as throwing us out of our
courso) caused us to lose about length.
We of course expected, as We started a Ger
tain distance above the Aqueduct, to row
al equal distance above the ship: but after
rowing about that distance, and finding we
had not yet reached the Judge, We began
to think whether the fag-boat might not
have been forgotten. / myself loked round,
and could see nothing Of it; We even called
to some people in boat to know where it
was, and they said thoy could not sec it; SO
we padded on and eventually came to it, SO
far on that We kept on grunlbling and talk
Mr.. Marlborough. i vote We stop, for I am
not going to row much further All this
time We wore rowing leisurely as the race
was safe; but the Harvard men were still
rowing on hard with that pluck and deter
mination with which they rowed all through
tho race. and it may therefore be readily
conceived that they had gained on us con-
siderably, and the fiat of the judge is
doubtless correct. have tried to explain
this apparent anomoly to the best Of my
ability, because have heard many people
debating about it, and no doubt bets we're
made as to tho distance we should win by;
but I hope people understand that we did not
row the race to win them money, and that
as tho crew had not one fartlling Mt stake,
it was to some extent immaterial how much
they won by. Apologizing for intruding
80 much upon your space, which T. should
not have done had it not occurred to me
that no one else would offer any explana-
ton, and that tho next thing we might
hear from some one would' DO that we
should have been rel'assed in a few hun
dred yards" ,,z:,.-,e:,:, .,..
