WHAT TO DO IN TROUBLE.

Don't try to quench sorrow in
rum or narcotics. If you begin this
you must keep right on with it till it
leads you to ruin; or, if you pause
you must add physical pain and
the consciousness of degradation to
the sorrow you seek to escape. OF
all wretched men, his condition is
the most pitilul who having sought
to drown his grief in drink, awakes
from his dcbauch with shattered
nerves, aching head, and depressed
mind, to face the same trouble
again. That which was at first
painful to contemplate will, after
drink, seem unbcarablc. Ten to
one the fatal drink will be again
and again sought, till its victim
sinks hopeless, pitiful wreck.
Work is your true remedy. II
misfortune hits you hard, hit you
something else hard; pitch into
something with will. There's
nothing like good, solid, absorbing,
cXhausting work to cure trouble.
II YOU have met with losses, Won
don't want to lie awake thinking
about them. You want sweet,
calm, sound sleep, and to eat your
dinner with appetite. If you say
you don't feel like work, and go a
loaiinG all day to tell to Tom, Dick,
and Harry the story Of your woes,
you'll lie awake and keep your wife
awake by your tossings, spoil her
temper and your own breakfast the
next morning, and begin tomorrow
feeling ten times worse than you do
today.
There are some great troubles
that only time heals, and perhaps
some that can never be healed at
all; but all can be helped by.
the great panacea, work. Try it.
you who are afflicted. 1t is not a
patent medicine. 1t has proved its
efficacy since first Adam and Eve

Recently in Il county town in New
jersey, there took place a sad tu.
neral. A young man Of noble form
and rare natural gifts was buried.
He was o graduate of Harvard Uni.
versity, and also Of the law-school
at that place, lie had graduated
with distinction, and was consider
ed one Of the most brilliant young
men ever reared in that part Of the
Estate. He seemed to have almost
every element Of power. But-hc.
was the slave Of the cup; and such
a slave! He had been known to
drink two quarts Of whiskey and
two bottles Of champagne while
dressing. Great efforts were made
to save him. An indulgent father
and loving mother entreated. hosts
Of friends, who were expecting so
much Of him, cxpostulated Men
who had not sense enough to see
chat 10 drink at all is damnation,
thought he WAS drinking rather too
much. Radical temperance men,
whose motto is "tastc not, touch
mot" gathered around him, and got
him to join their band. He seem
ed a new man. He opened a law
office, and prospects frightened
lie lcctured on temperance to
crowded audiences OF people, who
were delighted with his eloqucncc.

presence Of his mother when drunk.
There he died. He was buried on
the 29th of December, amid falling
rain and hail-as if the skies were
weeping too. The minister gently
intimated that somebody was re-
.sponsiblc for the death Of the young
man. That was true enough. His
blood is spattered about on many
garments. All the people in that
community, save those who are do
ing what they can to bring about
entire prohibition, have that mans
blood upon them. Those who tempt
ed him to drink, and sold him drink,
and drank with him, will appear in
the Judgment with his blood drip

the thundcr-bolt Of vengeance shall
be launched from the hands of JUS

murderers. STAND ASIDE!

A SLAP AT CAxpss. We take the fol-
lowing extract from letter to the Will
mingtou Commercial. supposed to have
been written by Rev. Il. W. TODD:
"A careful observer, who spends few
days at this popular resort will be likely
to reach the conclusion that very few per-
sons visit the camp through any higher
motives than those arising out Of desire
for season Of recreation and social en-.
joyment. Perhaps tho holding Of the
meeting can be justified even il these be
the controlling motives therefor. But il
the accomplishment Of n spiritual good be
tho object, it is the judgment Of many that
it would be largely subscrved by tempo
Jary discontinnancc Of tho meeting for a.
bout five years. until all the young folks
.. present contemplating courtship and
msrrisge be matrilpopislly disposed of !;
then il is thought. With little care, the
boys aud girls Of to-day might be taught
tbat they cannot with propriety moaopolize
tbc whole Of the encampnent and Of the
timc for The purpose Of eour'stip."

O'Brien-Arrcst or the Assailants.
The death OF Michael Mackie, at $50 West Thirty
ninth street, from the effects of alleged vic.
lcnce, has already been briefly reported In
the HERALD. 1t was yesterday learned that
during the intense political excitement which
prevailed throughout the city ON Monday
evening Mackie, being o warm adherent
OF O'Brien Tor Mayor, was shouting the name of
his favorite candidate in the street near his resi-
dence. This seemed to displease Jchn MichaeIs,
COOPER living at 219 West Twenty.ninth
street, and Frederick Fitzer, living in Forty-1rst
street, near Tenth avenue, who made an assault on
Michaels knocked Mackie down with q
fiat blow, after which both himself and
NitZer stamped on the breast and abdomen
Of their victim, besides kicking him in the side.
The assailants then, as charged, placed Mackie
under a cart that stood by, and lett him there
stored to consciousness Macke crawled out and
went home.
Tuesday morning Mackie was able to and did go
OUT ana vote Tor Mr.. 0'Brien, alter which he re-
turned home and took his bed and did not leave
again. The injured man grew worse and died on
Thursday.
Coroner Young has the case In charge and will
make an investigation early next week In the
meantime Deputy Coroner Marsh will make post
mortem on the body, and thus to certainty, as
certain the cause OF death. 1t Is thought some of
deceaseds ribs may have been fractured, and II Is
possible he sustained rupture OF some OF the in
ternal organs
Both Mchaes and NitZer have been arrested by
the twentieth precinct police, and arc detained
awaiting the result OF an investigation.

The sixty-fifth meeting of the New York Liberal
Club was held last evening at the rooms of the
club, Plimpton Hall, the occasion being the reading
Of paper by Mr.. Wallace p. Groom, editor of the
New York Mercantile Journal on "Cur-
rency" The attendance was fair, and the
lecturer was listened to with evident at
tention. After some Introductory remarks
he proceeded to say that our legal tender notes
are the best currency in the world, although they
are imperfect, not being full legal tender and
being non-convertble into government bonds. To
Camor, therefore, as thousands of people are
doing for q return to specie payments, was en-
