Good Luck.

Key. A. r.. Lawrence gave some good
advice, that is worth repeating, to the
graduating class Of the Newton High
School. II hope,'' he said, "none Of
you belong to that most unfortunate
class who imagine themselves lifted
above the necessity Of effort; who think
that their family position, or their faith
er's wealth, or a little money of their
own, is going to bring the world to
them, and that the oyster is quietly COM
ing to open itself for them when they
are ready to eat it. The oyster is a
great deal more likely to swallow them. "
A classmate said to me. when We were
leaving college together, "Well, good
by, now, gooa-by; we will meet again
on the floor Of the Senate chamber at
Washington
We have never met there yet, and the
chances are growing small that We ever
shall. Nor has it been altogether my
fault. The world swallowed him up
after commencement, and nothing has
ever been heard of him from that day to
this.
In this struggling life there is no place
for "lucky" men. The prizes are for
the workers. "Why are you in such
haste ?" said one the other day to a man
who has made his mark in the world.
"Why not wait and see what will turn
up?"
"Turn up!" he replied, II never
knew anything to turn up for me in this
world unless I turned it up!"
He who trusts to good luck to bring
the world round to hum just when he
gets ready for it, will find himself like
the clown in Horace, waiting on the
bank for the stream to flow by, that he
may pass over without wetting his feet.

or three months before English wheats are in
condition favorable for threshing. This and
the disappointing nature of the yield have
made holders confident Of an immediate ad-
vance. The market closed Friday firm with
an advance OF shilling per quarter on Mon
days rates. The leading provincial markets
were very firm at the close, partly in, conse
quence of the demand for saving, and there
was all advance in some instances of two
shillings per quarter. Trade, though firm at
the enhanced rates, was not active., Though
actual imports are smaller the large millers,
aware OF the large available extaneous supply,
confine their operations to present needs. On
Friday, foreign s.old, red winters and fine
whites advanced q shilling per. qudter and
other sorts 6pcncc to 10 pence. Maize and

Miss Jewett the Victor.
There was an immense crowd of peo-
pie at the race track in Louisville, Ky, on
the afternoon of Oct 9th to witness the reg
ular events and twenty mile race between
Miss Emma Jewett, OF Minpesota,e and Miss
Minnie Pnneo, of Greedy, Col. Each lady
had string of eight horses for the contest.
Miss Pinneo took the lead, both in running
and changing horses from the start, and in
the eighth mile was fully three -fourths of a
mile ahead. On the eleventh mile Miss Jew
EFT began to gain, and at the half: mile pole,
on the eleventh, Miss Pinneo's saddle turned
whicn caused her to step. This gave Miss
levitt some advantages and the race be-
came vasy exciting, the audience rising to
Its feet and applauding as Miss Jewett
gained ground. On the thirteenth mile Miss
Jewett passed Miss Pinne9 at the three quar-.
ter pole, but on the sixteenth mile Miss Pin.
neo regained the lead. On the seventeenth
mile Miss Jewetts horse tagged badly, but re
mount gave her better horse, and she closed
the gap rapidly. On the eighteenth mile
Miss levitt passed the stand without chang
ing horses, as che had done twice before, and
again passed Miss Pinneo at the three. quarter
pole OF the eighteenth mile and came under
the string several lengths ahead. The nine.
teenth mile was finished with Mics Jewett ii,
the lead. In the twentieth mile Miss Jewett
widened the distance between her and Miss
Pinneo, and won the race by a. quarter. of a
mile In 46 minutes and II seconds. Miss Pm
neo changed horses nineteen times, while
Miss Jewett changed but seventeen times.

DeplOrable Accident.

On the afternoon of Oct. 6, J. F. Beard,
master Of the car repairs of the Sioux City
railroad in the yards of that company at St.
Paul, Minn., had his left leg horribly crushed
by being run over by railroad car.
The following are the particulars:
At the time of the accident he
was on the trestlc work, about 100 yards above
elevator A., examining car which had de-
fective drawhead. he had got down to meas.
ure so,ne bolts under The car, and was in
position which brought his left leg across the
rail and in front Of the truck. While thus en-
gagged some cars We're being switched over
upon the same track unperceived by him.
These cars came down against the one under
which Mr.. Beard was working with such force
as to force one wheel Of the truck over his left
leg near the body, badly crushing the bones,
and lacerating the flesh to considerable ex-
tent. Some OF the other workmen near by
who saw the accident ran to his aid, and
friendly hands bore him to the small building
at the lower end of the company's freight
house, where he was soon attended by Drs.
Murphy, Hand, and Davenport, who found his
condition very serious, the nervous system
having sustained an unusually severe and
prostrating shock. He was taken to st. JOS
eph's Hospital and his recovery is hardly
probable. He is over fifty years old.

THE SKATING RINK,

The Brilliant Masquerade Last2 Evening,
The Broadway street skating rink was ablaze
with light last evening and vocal with the
laughter of several hundred pleasure seekers.
The occasion was the first grand skating mas
querade of the season and the rink was crowd
ed with the devotees'of this most healthful
and exhierating of winter exercises.
The ice was in perfect condition, presenting
an unflawed surface to the polished steel of the
skaters, and by the aid of the electric lights.
by which the rink was brilliantly illuminate,
the grace Of form and motion could have been
studied to perfection. The masks were endless
in variety and most of the costumes were pic
turesque and attractive.
Considering the number in attendance the
mistakes were few, but to the unbiased be-
holder they were highly edifying. One exquis-
lite who prides himself on symmetry of form
and gracefuluess of motion had the misfortune
to measure his length upon the ice in full view
of the lady upon whom he is said to be par
ticularly soft. He picked himself up quite
chop-fallen, but as these things are painful to
dwell upon the details of the circumstance
may be passed over in silence.
The music was furnished By the Great Union
band. to the strains of which fair lady and
gallant executed in graceful motions tie intri-
Gated mazes of the waltz.
The occasion was highly enjoyable but a
word might be said against the pernicious
practice of mothers allowing frail young girls
to frequent an outdoor resort attired in al
most summer clothing sacrificing comfort and
imperilling their health for the sake of out
ward appearance.

RAILROAD AMALGAMATION.
Rumors Which Amount to Nothing blu
Create Suspicious.

Rumors Which Amount to Nothing but
Create Suspicious.
The GLOBE, yesterday morning, chronicled
the reported consolidation of the st. Paul
& Sioux City and Chicago, st. Paul & Min
neapolis roads. Our morning contemporary
INDUCED in furious head lines on the SUBJ
ject, and a column of swash, the substance
of which was that ''the Sioux City shops
will be built IS though nothing had hap
pened," and positive denial from President
Drake, of the Sioux City road, that any
such consolidation had taken place.
Interviews of GLOBE reporters With officials
of the roads in this city failed to elicit any
information and hence our space was not
wasted in a bogus "spread." The first tan
gib!e information seems to come FROM the
following New York special to the Chicago
Times:
In addition to the exceptional advance in
certain stocks q particularly interesting move
ment is going in St. Paul & Sioux City
stock Il transpircs that a pool headed by
David BOWS has been quietly buying up the
stock in the interest of the Chicago & North
western road. 1t is expected that the exten-
sion of this road from Sioux City to
Omaha will soon be completed, and then the
Northwestern road intends to monopoliZe the
freight which it brings for shipment to St.Paul
and Omaha. 1t is said that the pool has now
got enough stock to control the road under its
manipulations. The common stock has just
risen from 81 to 431s, and the preferred closed
strong to-day at s. The st. Paul Sioux
City also owns by purchase the Omaha & Ne
hraska, Covington & Black Hills and Hudson
& River Falls and Is about to issue new stock
TO cover the purchases and to form cons,li-
dated road.
From such information as the GLOBE is
able TO gather we are inclined to believe that
there is too much truth in the above state
ment, and we are not without apprehension
that the sequel will prove that st. Paul no
longer controls the St. Paul & Sioux City
road. AS to future effects and policies it is
useless to speculate until something more
definite is made public. The mysterious
moves we fear are not healthy.
The stock report in the financial column
mentions rumors OF these consultations,
but says railroad men in New York know
nothing of them "Where ignorance is
bliss rs folly to be wise.'
