That which killed ARENAS Ward.

ARENAS Ward, anxious to buy back the
family homestead in which to shelter the
old age of his widowed mother, discovered
that he could never do it by making jokes,
unless he could sell them over and over
again. So he tried comic featuring. The
first night the experiment was failure:
A violent storm of snow, sleet and wind
thinned the audience--in Clinton Hall,
New York---to such degree that the lee
turer lost thirty dollars by the enterprise.
A tour in New England, however, had
better results. He lectured hundred
NIGHTS. by which he cleared nearly eight
thousand dollars, and he was soon able to
establish his mother in the comfortable
home Ia which he was born.
thought ought not to conclude this
article without letting the reader know
why this bright and genial spirit is no
longer here to add to the worlds harm
less amusement. Well, this was the Pea
son. Whenever he lectured, whether in
New England, California or London.
there was sure to be knot of young fell
lows to gather round him, and go home
with him to his hotel, order supper, and
spend half the night in telling stories and
singing songs. To any man this will
be fatal in time, bat when the nightly ca /
rouse follows an evenings performance
before an audience, and is succeeded by a |
railroad Journey the next day. the waste of
vitality is fearfully rapid. Five years of
such life finished poor Charles Browne.
He died in London in 1867 aged SO years |
and he now lies buried at the home of his
childhood in Maine.
He was not deep drinker He was not
a man of strong appetites. TWAS the nights
wasted in cenvivalty which his system
needed for sleep, that sent him to his grave
forty years before his time. For men of his
profession and cast of character. for all
editors, literary men and artists, there is
only one safety--teetotalism. He should
have taken the advice Of stage driver on
the Plains, to whom he once offered some
whiskey and | commend it strongly to
the countless hosts who see this paper
every week II don't dtink. won't drink,
And / don't like to see anybody else drink
I'm ofthe opinion of these mountains
keep your top cool. They've got snow. and
I've got brains; that's all the difference.
