indispensable to have long CATERS for the

THE AMERICAN PLLMSOLL.
[Chicago Tribune Aug 81

Our .Plimsoll was named Sidney S. Bur-
ton. He lived in Cleveland, O. Like all
intelligent persons, he read the daily pa.
pers. He noticed striking similarity
in the details Of steamboat accidents on
the Mississippi and Ohio. One boat
might be burned, and another snagged,
and another exploded, but the disaster
always happeAed in some lonely spot, the
shattered hull always sank IN deep wate",
and the missing boat was always heav-
lily insured. Burton read this and pom
dered upon it. He decided that here was
an abuse to right, but he did not see his
way clear to the Fighting of it. He was
only private citizen, without any influ-
ence beyond that possessed by every hon
est man. While he was hesitating, the
famous boat, Martha Washington, burn

possibility that investigation might reveal

men went to the scene of the wreck.
Their graphing irons soon located the
site Of the half burned hull. Down went
the divers, and up came the boxes of
silks, and laces, and wines, and other
costly things, which had been insured at
Cincinnati. When they were opened,

gladly gave themselves into the hands of

A long trial followed. The man supposed

Broderick's murder, like the outcast

and Burton, having done his work,
stepped quietly back into oblivion. His

Yesterday an old couple from Canada

catching him by the coat-tails she slung
him :'kewhop" against stall, and then
taking him by the collar, she said:

UNDRESSED BY MACHINERY.
Jackson (Michiganl Patruit.l

Monday night Mr., A. D. Cornell. a
miller employed in the Etna mills, met
with serious accident, and one that only
his strength and presence of mind pre-:
vented from being tragedy. About mid
night some gearing in the extreme peak
OF the mill began to creak, and Mr.. Cor.
nell went up to oil it. 1t was in low
part Of the room, we'll under the caves,
and in applying the oil he was obliged to
reach over shaft. While STOPPING down
a Key on the shaft became caught in the
breast Of his shirt. and about the time he
was through his job had taken up all
slack, and held him down and was draw.
ing him still tighter. He was thrown
over the shaft, his light went ont, and
then he cody braced himself, and let the
shaft slowly tear off'his clothing by strips,
and tire undressing operation was not
delicately performed either. 1t would
not 90 tor him to struggle much, as on
either side was gearing in within few
inches OF him that seemed waiting to seize
on member and draw him into its de.
structive embrace. Gradually his clothes
parted company with him, causing
severe pain by the roughness of their
taking off, and at last he felt that he was
no longer in the tolls. Slowly he drew
himself back, and wiping the heavy drops
from his brow, brought out there by the
agonizlng strain of body and mind during
the trying ordeal, he started to grope his
way down stairs, for he knew that cries
OF help would be unavailing and would
not be heard below. On hands and knees
he made his way, narrowly missing fall
ing to the floor below, his outstretched
hand going over the aperature, warning
him of the danger and at the same time
serving to tell him where he was. He
crawled around under shafting and
around posts, feeling his way along till
he reached the head Of the stairs, when
he staggered to his feet and got down to
the ground floor and appeared to his fell
low workmen, pale and trembling. clad
in the light and airy costume of shirt
collar and the waistband of his pants.
His first remark was: "Well, boys. I've
stopped that squeaking.' Explanations
were soon made, and he was sent home.
DIR. Mclaughlin was called in and found
that he had dislocated his shoulder, and
the inside of his breast and arm were de-
nuded of the skin and badly infamed by
contact with the revolving shaft. These,
with the shock. were the only injuries re.
| ceived and were soon dressed and he was
put to bed to recuperate. Last night he
was feeling much better. So tightly
were his clothes woven round the shaft
that it was found necessary to shut down
the mill to remove them. They look as
though they had gone through thresh.
ing machine, so shredded and tattered
are they. 1t was narrow escape from
lasting injury, perhaps death, and Mr.
Cornell escaped cheaply.

HOW PARENTS SHOULD GOVERN
~ THEIR CHILDREN

Parents may err as we'll as children,
Too much austerity or too much familiar.
ity are equally destructive to a proper
government Of children. One who fnl]v
comprehends the duties and responsible
ties. of father is particular never to de.
scend to that gross familiarity with his
children because they are his children
which always undermines in the child S
heart the respect and Difference due a
father, nor upon the other hand be so
cold and distant as to excite dread and
fear in their minds, so that should he I'M
expectedly come upon them in their inno-
cent and childish sports they would sud.
denly stop ami look up confused, like Gull
prlts overtaken in the very acts of their
wickedness.
A father should study the disposition
and temperament of each child and watch
with the deepest and tenderest interest
the development Of their minds and char
acters, giving here bend to the growing
twlg and there prop to the dropping
vine. A mild and gentle reproof in words
will, IN the majority Of cases, be al! that
is sufficient to produce reformation. I
have seen parents who would, in order to
correct some minor fault, storm awav at
a child IN manner calculated to friehten
it into obedience.
''He who checks child with terror.
Stops its play and stills its song,
Not alone commits an error,
But greveus moral wrOng'
''Would you stop the flowing river,
Thinking it would cease to flow
Onward must it flow forever,
Better teach it where to po''
Among CHI ldren there are two very op.
posite incentives to do right-love or
fear-love so deep: so true for parents as
to lead them to do right in order
to merit and receive their approval, or
fear Of personal chastisement so great as
to lead them to do wrong, trusting to
their chances of escape by the utterance
Of unblushing falschoods.
have little hope for child who is
actuated in doing right by any such mo;
tive as fear. and no patience with pa
rent who attempts to govern his or her
children by any such means.
The truth is, the rod belongs to the
dark ages, and the best regulated fami.
lies have long since banished it from
their homes. Teach your children to do
right because it is right, and principles of
honesty and truthfulness will be i'm
planted in their young hearts which time
can never efface. If you rule by fear,
your children will be early taught to lie
and conceal their faults from you, and
will be apt to grow up men and women,
retaining these bad traits as long as they
live. Parents, try moral suasion and
never use the lash, the rod, the switch or
the slipper.
Would that I could reach the hearts
Of parents in this city and convince them
of their error in trying to make their
children do right from fear of the lash.
" ould that l could save the dear little
ones the pain and modification incident
to such unreasonable belief on the part OF
parents. Could do this, should feel
that I had accomplished great and good
work in my day and generation which
would show itself in all time to come by
