The North .4merican remarks: A
Brooklyn woman has just recovered
a thousand dollars from q tavern
keeper by way of damages for the
leg her husband broke while the
worse for liquor. If every wife whose
husband is manned by rum would,
wherever the law permits, pursue a
similar course, the cause of temper
ance would be greatly helped. The
man who will sell liquor to drunken
customer ought to be made to bear
the consequences
The remark Of the North .7merican
viii be heartily approved OF, but there
is another side to the question that
has not been considered, and that is
the question of the responsibility Of
the man himself that got drunk.
How would it do to sue him and fine
him a thousand dollars for getting
drunk and breaking his leg. The or
thodox church teaches that a man
himself is to be held responsible for
his own acts; he cannot shift them
upon some other person

DECORATION DAY was more generally
observed on the 30th than ever be
fore, the Grand Army Posts being
the nucleus around which all other
movements for the occasion centered.
While there Was not large turnout
of citizens IL procession. outside of
the circle of Post membership, and
secret society membership, there was
an immense outpouring of children,
boys and girls, which is certain in
dication that the parents desire that
the memory of the citizen soldier
that fell in defense of popular gov
ernment-a government of equality
of all before the law-shall be kept
fresh and green as long as they know
how to SO perpetuate it.
Long after the members of all the
Posts have been called away to meet
their comrades in the future world,
the boys and girls that participated
In the ceremonies of Decoration day
will be active men and women In the
affairs of everyday life, and they will
tell of it to those that succeed their
day and generation.
The memory of the citizen soldier
of the Republic is safely enshrined
in the hearts of the children of the
North, and will be kept fresh and
green for sixty years to come.
Three great wars, that of 1776,

over loaded slight commotion on the
boat, said by some to have been caused
by the playful pranks of q number O

q volume of water foot or two in deptt
poured in upon the lower deck, which
was crowded with passengers. Instant
ly the crowd on both docks rushed t.
the opposite side, and their weight, to-
gether with that CT the water shipped
by the boat, caused lurch from tb,
opposite direction. Then it was tha,
the disaster occurred. The side of tht
boat sank in the water to the depth o.
one or two feet, and while the crowd
on the lower deck were struggling to
save themselves from slipping down in
to the river, the stanchious supporting
the upper decks suddenly gave way
and the whole structure, with Its load
of human beings, came down on those
who we're below, crushing them on the
deck and rendering escape Impossible
The scene that followed cannot be de-
scribed.
The boat continued to settle on its
side deeper INTO the water, taking will
it many of the passengers who wert
stunned by the fall of the upper deck,
and we're therefore unable to helt
themselves.
As soon as possible help was secured
and the work Of recovered bodies from
the river and from the wreck was pro.

on q steamboat that came to the rescue
as fast IS they were brought up, and
then taken to the shore, where the task
Of Identification began. The accident
occurred At abort a quarter past six,
and 1t was midnight before the bodies,
so far recovered, we're brought back to

Here most heartrending scene en-
saed The bodies, as fast as they we're
transferred from the steamer, were laid
out IN rows on the grass by the river
side, all ia their holiday attire, and
with the aid Of torches the faces we're
eagerly scanned by hundreds of suxious
friends. When the water was let off by
removal Of the plasL-boards sesrch was
continued for those under the lower

brought to the surface, making shout
