I'LL LUCK.

Neither philosophy, religion nor CON-
nonsense have been able to beat down
the notion that there is such thing as
fatality. 1t is easy enough to say that
each one of us works out his own for
tune, whether for good or evil, that for
every result there is cause which one
can find by diligent search into all the
conditions, and that, in the strict sense
of the word, there is no such thing as
good luck or bad luck.
1t is probable that we should find, if
we should take half dozen examples of
each kind, and should have it in our
power to investigate all the opportuni-
ties, surroundings and accidents of each
one making up the sum total of life, that
all these cases would present about an
equal average of opportunity, and yeri-
fication of Shakspeare's lines
"Thero is a tide in the affairs of men;
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to
iOibuncJ 6Ic
For example, two men, both poor, start
out in life with equal advantages. One,
thrifty, self-denying and long-sighted,
boards up his little earnings till they ac-
cumulate to respectable sum. Sud-
denly the opportunity comes when by an
investment the prudent man finds the
chance to begin career of swift-grow-
ing prosperity. In the other case. our
typical man is careless, lavish in spend
ing money, and intent only on the pres
ent To him, too, opportunity comes,
but he is unable to grasp the chance held
out to him and it slips by. In both these
cases opportunity is the same, but the
power and resources of the men differ,
and this makes all the distinction be-
tween success and failure. A competent
analysis, probably, would result in such
conclusion in every case where there
could be obtained sufficiently large

EDS. JOURNAL.-Since last writing
we have been made to feel the power
and fury of the elements. Last Satur-
day about noon the light rain then fall
ing was suddenly changed into a ter
rife storm. the like of which never
visited us before, the water literally
falling in sheets. Soon every little ra-
vine was full to overlooking and their
waters uniting in the valley that leads
into town from the Range Line
road, perfect torrent was hurled up
on the village, keeping the course cut
by the flood that caused so much loss
and death last year on July I'd, carry
inc on its turbulent surface trees, some
80 feet long, logs, ETC., and picking up
and moving rocks weighing two and
three tons. When this flood struck
the bridges it crushed them like pipe
stems. Soon the water had risen so as
to be overlooking the town two or
three feet in many parts. The water
tore up the new plank wall that had
been put in in front of the school
house and hurled it many feet into the
air, also cut within six feet of Mr.. Ira
Carpenter house, cut under Mr.. Hull's
furniture store and DR.. Burrough' S
dwelling house. Chas. Barton's har-
ness shop must have gone with the
flood had it not been for the unremit-
ting work of those present. There
was no loss of life, but if this storm
had come in the night it would nave
been little short of Il miracle if no
lives had been lost. r.
