HOME FOR YOUNG WoMEN.-The ladies who
have interested themselves in the establish
ment of ''Home for Young Women" in Port
land, say the plan is to provide a comfortable
and cheap boarding house, for any and all
young women of good character, dependent on
their own resources, who come for employ
lnent, suited to women as such. In this Home
strangers will find friends ready to give them
information in regard to employment, advice
in cases of difficulty, introduction to Christian
society and places of worship, influences in a
word, favorable to their happiness and sue
cess.
1t is project if well conducted may work
much good and relieve parents and friends of
much anxiety, and their daughters coming to
the city, from much annoyance and many NOR
al dangers, not to mention the exorbitant
charges often made by those who furnish such
a temporary home.

The men who slept in the room with him, say
he rose at half past three o'clock, filled his pipe
and smoked it; then went back to bed. When
they arose they found him dead in bed. Coron-
er Hall was called, but thought an inquest was
unnecessary. The physician who was called
was uncertain whether death was the result of
congestion of the brain or heart disease. Grady

comes from the gloom to denote that they are
alive, and the friends settle down in the pain
full conclusion that they shall see them no more

storm has swept them off, and no one was
left to unfold the mystery. Mr. ID. was much
respected by all who knew him, and his loss is

A REMARKABLE ESCAPE Satur-
day afternoon last as the freight train on
the Chicago Il W. Railway coming from
the north, was nearing the depot in this
city, the engineer deserted a man short
distance ahead, walking leisurely along the
track in the same direction as the train.
The bell was rHng and the Ell gineer whistled
vigorously for brakes, but the man paid no
attention to the signals. The distance was
too short to stop the train before reaching
him and the man was struck by the cow
catcher and thrown into the ditch on the
side CT the road. AS. soon as possible the
train was stopped and the man picked up
and carried into the depot where he receiv-
ed medi cal attention from Doctor Spald-
ing, who had been summoned. Strange to
say he sus tanned no injury beyond an ugly
flesh wound on the head, and a badly skin
ned nose neither of them of a ser ous nature
The engineer ofthe train considers it the most
remarkable escape from death, or at least
permanent injury, th at ever came under his
observation. AT one time he supposed the
man would be Instantly killed as the ira in
was running at the rate of about Ten miles
an hour when he was struck.
