AT about o'clock this morning Ger
man, named John Watski employed at the
coal dump. at Gable. Mercer Co. was dis
covered dead on the track. 1t seems that
his companion had just started an empty
car down the incline track when he dis
covered that it was not entirely emptied
and that breaks on the other cars were not
set; he called to Watski to bring him a
shovel, and at the same time set the
break. and stopped the::car and also set the
breaks on the other cars to prevent them
following.Athe empty car when he should
let it GO. After cleaning out the car he
let go the breaks and rode down to the
dump. On looking for Watski he discov-
cred him lying Oh the track between the
rails, about half way between the dump
and the other cars. He called to him
three times, supposing he was fooling, but
on going to him found him dead.
There was bruise on
his head and several of his ribs were
broken, the wheels of the car not having
touched the body. 1t is supposed that he
started to help his companion set the
breaks on the other cars, and that he fell,
striking his head. knocking him senseIess,
and that his ribs were broken by the lower
irons of the break, when the car passed
over him. However, there were no others
present, and only these facts were brought
out at the inquest.
The deceased was an unmarried man,
and is not known to have any relatives in
this country.

To the Editor Of the Argus:
Although the ideas expressed in this

with the ideas sat forth in The ARGUS,
nevertheless you may not object to give it
space in your columns.
G, r. Windley said AN idea that can

/ wish to inquire how far this temper
ance revival is in accordance, LIST with
Christianity; End with Morality; 3rd with
reason; 4th with experience, This blend
ing Of Christianity with total abstinence,
seems peculiar to this age; never since
the turning of water to wine and useing
wine as religious rite. and to those ad-
vised to take wine and to whom it was
said that wine maketh glad
the heart, not from that age
unto the present, has it been held that alb
stinence of wine is imperative on Christians
if abstinence is strictly held to be impera-
tive it would unchristianixe our forefathers
the partaking of wine is not so much for.
hidden as it is enjoined.
End - 10 morality the holding that
moderate drinking is moral crime is per.
nicious; it makes men to be considered by
others and sometimes by themselves (which
is equally bad) to be moral criminals when
they are not SO, the partaking of vine and
beer is not moral wrong per Sc. but about
excessive drinking there is no dispute.
Total abstinence is predicated upon the
argument that man has not the power of
self control; the very best way to weaken
the faculty is to deny its existence; to vio-
late what we believe moral law is as bad
as breaking the moral law itself as far as
our consciousness is concerned; we should
live under sense of goodness and not
under o consciousness of guilt. To stamp
all our little Injuries and amusements as
criminal is bad ethics,
Ii is not always the best way to meet
extremes by extremes, even fin some cases
it does work well.
5rd-ln reason we are no more bound to
forego drinking because some donot respect
moderation than we are bound to forego in
marrying because some do not respect the
msrriage tie; TIE best example in temp sr-
ance is he that avoids intemperance, and
is living example that man can control
himself, acting out the part of wisdom in
being temperate in all things"
4th-ln the matter of experience the
beer drinkers have some experience as well
as the tetotallers, and the general verdict
is that moderate drinking of beer and
wine so far from being hurtfull is bene-
fetal to health, as good if not better than
tea and coffee: moderate drinking does not
usually pass to excessive drinking, the ten
dency of the natural appitite is not toward
the morbid, the few exceptional cases to
the contrary Notwithstanding. JIG.
