THE PRESIDENTS OPPORTUNITY.
Nashville Republican.

President Arthur knows that every
body else disccrns that the future OF
his party is in doubt, and that in any
event its future healthfulness is con-
tingcnt upon certain "reforms within
the party" and the question with him
is, therefore, how to shape these op-
posing elements so that his own sue
cess will be assured. He is face to
face with Il very hard problem. If he
gives it up, content to retire at the
end of Gartield's term, with the un-
earned honor of having occupied the
position another mans power has by
an accident thrown into his lap, there
will be no further. interest attached to
Mr. Arthur in the South, for he will
in that case enjoy the remainder of
the term in his own sOciable way, and
let politics take care of themselves; /;
but if Mr.. Arthur is Of mind to go
into this coming fray, he must develop
craftsmanship without loss of time
People are rapidly dividing upon non
partisan questions, not in the South
alone, but at the North and South.

Two Accidents.

james Cunningham, about fifty
years of age aud married, was in Ridg-
way last Saturday night engaged in
celebrating the occasion. He imbibed
rather more than was good for him.
AND In state not far removed from
1ntoXicatiOn he started for Whistle
town, four miles west of Ridgway,
afoot and alone A few rods above the
mill at Whistletown is bridge across
the mill pond. In attempting to cross
this bridge James missed his footing
and fell into the water ON the lower
side of the bridge. The time was
about nine o'clock at night. Men at
the boarding house heard some one
crying for help. The night was dark
so that when the men who answered
the call went to the assistance of the
man in the water they were power
less to render any assistance. The
water where the man went down was
six or eight feet deep. In the morn
ing the. body was recovered and a man
dispatched to Ridgway to notify Cor
oner Williams.
Dalquest, Sweed blacksmith, was
found on the floor of Wheeler's barn,
by tho party who went to get the horse
and saddle to go and notify the coroner
of Cunningham's death. Dalquest
has a wife and large family at Kane
He had been employed but few days
as blacksmith at Whistletown, and
1t has been his custom to sleep on the
lower floor of Wheelers barn. This
night it seemed he had got into the
haymow to sleep, falling from there to
the floor below, a distance of fourteen
feet striking on the frontal bone. Death
was undoubtedly almost instantaneous.
This man had not been drinking, and
was perfectly sober at the time of the
accident. His age was about forty
years.
Sunday morning Coroner Williams
went to Whistletown and held an in
quest on each of the unfortunate men.
The jury rendered a verdict in each
case in accordance with the facts as we
have stated them.

and fine looking gentleman passed us
on the street.
"Nyho is he?" | asked.
Ellis name is Hill, his home is in a

Doctor. "Sevcral years ago Hill's
father died, leaving to him and two
elder brothers considerable property.
This son was the prodigal and soon
wasted his share by dissipation. His
brothers, respectable men, were SO
ashamed of this mans conduct they
offered him 1000 if he would leave
and promise to never return. Hill
took the money and gave the promise
and went to Leadville, Col. After
looking around for few days lie fell
in with an old miner, who proposed
that the twain go prospecting. They
went and soon Struck it rich Hill
sold his share for $4,000, came back
to W, paid his brothers the S 900,
declaring that thereby he was absolved
from his promise TO not return, aband-

money in good securities, and is now
enjoying life as only the truly lucky

That Terrible Motler.i Law.

a "brilliantn newspaper humorist
wrote mean, sarcastic mother-in-law
paragraph and then went home and
found his wife seriously i'll. "Send

woman. And mother came. That
terrible female yclept " mother-in-law
paragraphist. For several days the
sick wife hovered on the unknowable,
and that doting MOI mean that
monster, the paragraphist's bete noire,
prosecuted her son-in~law most shame
fully. ..l
She assumed the management Of his
house, and cruelty permitted him to
lie abed mornings, while she built the
fires and cooked his matutinal meal.
She made his life wormwood and gall
by setting before him an appetizing
dinner; and in the evening at the
supper table she added insult to injury
by rendering him dainty and palatable
dishes, all prepared by her own
fiendish hands. Aud during the in
tervals she narrowed up his soul by
administering to his sick wife. She
plunged him into gloom and despair,
and filled his brain with thoughts Of
suicide, by sewing buttons Oh his shirts.
What refined cruelty!
The terrible, ,uncomplaining mother
in-law, with loving hands and sweet
and comforting words, albeit often
with fearful eyes and desponding heart,
nursed her first born back to life, and
saved her outraged son-in-law eight
dollars a week nurse hire.
What heartlessness!
Yes, after many sleepless nights and
anxious; weary hours, that cruel, tired
out mother, saw the light of health
once more beam in her daughters eyes,
and the roses come back to her cheeks;
and during all these nights the news
paper humOrist was obliged to remain
under the roof that sheltered an ogre
his mother-in-law.
1t was terrible!
But her hour of triumph came at
last. The mother kissed her weeping
daughter good-by, and returned to her
home, and the paragraphist was free
man again. And the next day, in the
eXhuberance OF his JOY he wrote and
printed the following paragraph:

Brakeman Killed.


Charles Stewart, aged about % years,
employed as a brakeman on Conductor
Donovan's freight train, was instantly
killed at st. Marys on Sunday morn
ing, at 2.25 o'clock. It's not positively
known how the accident happened.
1t is believed, however, that the un-
fortunate young man was standing on
the platforms of two cars when the
train was coupled, and in doing so the
coupling broke, causing him to fall
down between the cars. Several cars
passed over his breast killing him
Instantly. He has been employed on
the road about six weeks. His remains
were brought to this place on Sunday
and placed in charge of Undertaken
Beck, and on Monday they were
forwarded to his friends at Harrisburg,
for burial.
