THE EDUCATION OF EXPERIENCE,

THE EDUCATION OF EXPERIENCE.
Several weeks ago, we received
letter from an old boyhood compan-
ion, enclosing one addressed to him
from young man about twenty-five
years of age. This young man,
whom for convenience we will call
Charles, was at the date Of his letter,
the head of a good business in a
large town in Missouri, and any one
reading his letter, would infer at
once, that he was young man of
the highest promise. In fact, the
general tone of the letter gives the
reader the impression of a dignified,
manly and Independent young fel-
low. He says, and we happen to
know that he speaks the truth, that
from the age of ten years, he has
been making his own living, and
helping to support his mother and
sisters, while other more highly fa-
vored boys were daily attending
school, Charles was hard at work,
and freely devoting his scant earn
ings to the support of his mother and
his two sisters, one "a young widow
with one or two children. Knowing
these facts in his history, we cannot
read his letter, almost faultless in
penmanship, spelling, grammar, and
expressive as it is, without wonder
ing how, or when, he achieved such
undeniable evidences Of, at least, a
good English education. One would
think, that boy, hard at work from
the age of ten to manhood, would
write, If he could write at all, in a
style far beneath that in which this
letter is written. IN fact, regular
scholastic education could not have
done more for him, than it is evident
he has done for himself. 1t is plain
that he has been educated, not only
in the education obtained at schools,
but also in the real duties of life.
Without saying so, in SO many words,
any one who reads this letter can see
that Charles looks upon his life as a
trust for the benefit Of others.

WE are in receipt of a very inter-
esting letter from Mr.. G. L. Hearn,
of Sandy Bayou, who is travelling
through North. west Arkansas, look
ing at the country; but the crowded
state of our columns compel its sac
riiice to the W. basket. Mr.. H. ex-
presses himself as delighted with
portions of the country traversed by
him, and we greatly fear Mississippi

osCEoLA ARKANSAS SATURDAY OCTOBER g. 1888

Few, very few, comparatively, could
be seen on the road of Duty, but it
must be admitted, many were COM
ing back, and taking the other road,
and some young men in a bad humor
were very profane, and damned the
people for not keeping the road in
better condition and making it more
pleasant for men who wanted to en-
ploy their talents in the Temple Of
Honor and Success. "The road is
marked free to all" said young
man in the tone of one who had been
injured, "but nobody will travel it
long but lot of poor devils who
have to work their way. BY Gad,"
said he, mopping his face with his
handkerchief, "by gad, such road
may do for mules and dray horses,
but it won't do for a race-horse like
me;" and then the race-horse went
into the saloon On the other road,
called for cocktail, drank it, and
then poured out his sorrows into the
sympathetic bosom of the bartender.
Charles hearing all this, with heavy
sigh, which bursted button off his
vest, took farewell look at the
other road, and took the road of
Duty, with what results, we have
herein seen.

as though there had never been building
standing in that portion, while In other
sections the remains of house show the
terrible destructive force of the wind.
As soon as the cyclone had passed and
the people in the more favored portion
of the CITY began to learn OF the damage
they went at once to the lower town to
render what assistance they could, many
working all night The dead from the
debris and the wounded were conveyed
to Buekshot, at the Winona House. Dr.

While all knew the destruction
had been fearful, no idea of it could be
obtained until the next morning, when its
horrors were appalling to behold. Com
mencing at the j. r. Cook house on the
| ST. Paul road which was entirely demOl-
ished. the cyclone next took Leland's res
| idence and barn and out buildings, not
leaving a stick standing. Thence it
swept through the lower town. From
the appearance of the ground it seems
as though terrific flood had swept over
this section In many places where
there had been residence, scarcely a
board was left on the premises. The
grass is filed with dirt and sand, as if a
muddy stream had passed oyeril Early
on Wednesday morning an organized
movement was made to care for the
\ wounded. Committees were appointed

aid, and the total losses foot up about
$40O, 600 Ten business blocks were
unroofed, $50 houses with their contents
were demolished, and 200 houses damag.
ed The Court House and Round House
were unroofed. John W. Cole, a pro
minent business man and owning foul
mills, was picked up and hurled to the
ground breaking every bone.
Eight ladies were taken into the coun-
try by friends before the names were
known and fourteen others are still un
claimed, making in all twenty-six killed

wounded are children who are severely
