short distance above the house the track
passes over stream at point where a
cascade makes loud enough noise to
drown that made by an approaching
train. just beyond the road turns
sharply. 1t was here that the milk train,
bound for Bridgeport. came suddenly
upon them around the curve. Owing to
the falling waters, they had not heard
its approach. The engineer whistled for
brakes, but his train was upon the party

quick as lightning, caught up the little
girl aud threw her down the embank-
ment on the right side Of the track Then
he seized the boy and hurled him down
the other side. II was too late for him
to save himself. The engine struck him
and threw him against telegraph pole.
One leg was cut completely off and his
ribs on the left side were driven through
his heart and lungs. He died in few
moments. The children were overcome
by fright and unable to move. 1t was at
first supposed they had been killed also,
but upon examination it was found they
were only slightly bruised. Mrs Muir
ply was rendered almost crazy with
grief by the accident.

REASONS FOR AN ATTRACTIVE
TOWN

Every one who has visited Evanston,
thirteen miles north of Chicago, on
the lake shore. speaks of it with ad-
miration. It's neat dwellings, hand
some churches, we'll kept yards and
surroundings, do not fail to attract the
favorable notice of visitors. The Sc
cret of all this thrift and neatness is
explained in few words. Evanston is
a temperance town. The charter of
the Northwestern University, located
there at the beginning of the town,
wisely il terdicted the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors within four miles of
that institution. The exclusion of in
toXicants, together with its literary ad-
vantages, were the reason for drawing
together population Of culture and
refinement, surprising towns where
intoxicating liquors are not under
like restraint. Suppose it were posi-
BILE for the people of Evanston to set
aside lis protecting law against intoxi-
cants and license twenty or thirty
liquor saloons, how long would Evans
ton maintain its reputation for peace
and quietness? How long before di
lapidated sidewalks would incom-
mode the pedestrian? How long be-
fore profane street brawlers would be
met, and loafers seen standing on the
corners, waiting to be invited by some
like fellow to 60 and take a drink ? |
What Evanston is now, rendering it a |
desirable town for residence, and for
the rearing family, scores of other
towns in the west of like size in popu-
lation might become, if they would |
but effectually shut out the producing
cause of crime and degradation.

SOMERS.

Several showers have fallen during
the past week, which will have a ten
dency to revive pastures to a limited
extent.
The ground is still too hard for plow-
ing. Some have finished cutting corn,
others have not yet commenced.
The woods are beginning to assume
the usual gorgeous autumn tints-
colors that any painter might envy,
but could not duplicate.
Miss Ray Ozanne was the guest of
Mr.. S. Barnes last week; also Mrs. I.
Hole, of Deerfield, Ills.
Miss Anna Yule is still very i'll, not
being able to sit up.
Mr.. James Flett, Jr., of Iowa, is on
visit at his fathers and exchanging
smiles with his friends generally.
Mr.. George Mitchell, of Minnesota,
and once a resident Of this town, is
here enjoying himself with his numer-
Gus relatives and acquaintance.
Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Pye have gone

CIVIL SERVICE

Eleven years have now ELAPSED
since the business of constructing A

gress last winter framed rules for its
governance. and its work was pro-
nounced complete. The latest n ews
from Washington is to the effect that
civil service is not in working order.
and that the Commissioners having it
In charge are at sea, and know not
what to do with it. Congress failed to
provide how promotions in office
should be made, and the result is, that
the heads of Departments are filling
up all the higher-salaried vacancies
from the lower ranks, so when Con.
greSs next winter prescribes the meth
cd for making promotions, there will
be no vacancies to fill. All new COM
ers who hereafter obtain situations
will be obliged to take the leayings
and low-priced places. As it is a COM
mon remark in Washington, that
" clerks never resign and seldom de-
it will offer but poor encouragement
hereafter, for men or women, to seek
clerkships at Washington. E. O.l

PRESIDENTIAL.

Each of the Republican candidates
mentioned the past few months APP
pears to hold about the same, without
any apparent gain or loss. President
Arthur, however, is an exception to
this; the fact cannot be concealed that
his chances for denomination have
improved. All the Republican state
conventions that have been held have
passed resolutions highly compliment
airy to him. New York, Ohio and
Massachusetts conventions have
spoken in his praise. His admins
tration is kindly mentioned by leading
Republican presses in yarious states
No great reliance, however, can be
placed ON these expressions of good
will; they do not indicate Arthur as
the first choice.

while the Rev. Elder Arthur. Chester A.
Arthur's father, was pastor of the church.
When he came west he settled in the town
Of Wheatland, now Randall, Kenosha county,
in 1912, and there remained up to the pres
emit time.
There were no churches on the frontier
at that time, and his armor of religion
became little dimmed. But after few
years, churches were organized, and there

its way into cities and towns of less

interested people to determine.

FIVE ACRES A FARM.

Fl. A. Taylor, U. s. Consul to Mar
settles, France, recently delivered an
address before the st. Croix Agricul-
tural Society in this State. In relation
to the farmers in France, Mr.. Taylor
said they seldom occupied farms of
more than five acres, and on these
farms they live, raise families and save
money. To accomplish this requires
the most strict economy, thorough and
intelligent culture of the soil. 1t
would surprise an American farmer to
see what five acres of rich and careful
ly cultivated ground can produce. Of
course it is not expected our American
farmers will narrow their limits to-
five acres, nor would that be expedient:
but it is suggested far less number
of acres, with undertakings and fer
tilization of the soil, would be better
economy than the working of large
farms. In respect to the methods of
farming Mr.. Taylor says:
| am sure that many of our farm.
ers would profit by adopting some of
the methods prevalent in older coun.
tries. There would be less waste.
more fertilizing. and generally more
thorough culture. Why, among the
farmers of Europe nothing is thrown
away; the land is fertilized to the
highest point of productiveness; every
available foot is occupied; where there
is room for seed to grow one is plant
ed, and no weeds are allowed to choke
the grain or cumber the ground"

FORGIVENESS OF SIN.

1t has generally been understood by
those outside of the Catholic church
that forgiveness of sin is power
committed to the priests, and is a doc
trine of the church. Bishop Ryan, at
a conference of Catholic priests in
Baltimore, recently preacheda sermon.
maintaining that the priests have not
the power toforgive sin. He declares,
The Catholic had to do all that the
non-Catholic had to do-repent before
God and promise amendment; make
restitution, and then submit to the adj
ditional humiliation of going to con.
fession, and after the confession his
whole life had to be in perpetual recol-
lection of his past disloyalty to his
God"

THE FOOD WE EAT.

Most people in this country are low
ers of meat; in some families it is re-
garded as indispensable at least once
a day, and in many twice or more. It
is alleged that much Of the meat sold
in the market, especially in the large
cities, comes from crippled, wounded,
feverish and unhealthy animals. These
meats, when dressed and put into mar
ket, appear the same as sound meats,
and cannot be detected by ordinary
buyers. The Chicago and st. Louis
papers complain that large quantities
of meat are daily sold in those cities
which has the appearance of sound
ness to the common observer, but
which if the condition of the animal
were known before slaughtering, the
meat would be regarded with repug-
nance. The best medical advisers say
chat the meat of crippled and I'M
sound animal is injurious to the
health of the eater, and must inevita.

ENJOYMENTS FOR THOSE NOT
RICH.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE CHICAGO
JOURNAL.
Many who are not rich are often dis
contented and envious, and act as
though the rich had monopoly of all
the enjoyments of the world. They
seem paralyzed in the presence of rich
and fashionable people, and when near
them fail to take pleasure in the things
which they themselves possess.
Those who are not rich can enjoy
equally with the rich: the pure air of
heaven; the sunlight; the clear water
of spring, river, lake or ocean, which
they can drink. look upon or battle in;
food, good wheat or corn bread, beef,
mutton or other meats, tea, coffee,
chocolate; music, by cultivating the
voice and attending concerts at many
times, as in parks, and those given all
over the countryaby Theodore Thomas,
which are open to the people almost
free, at churches and cathedrals, Sun
day schools. etc.; reading from news
papers, public libraries; lectures, at
halls where course of lectures by
eminent men and women are arr anged
for by lecture associations at moderate
rates, at churches, political meetings,
etc.; clothing, warm underwear for
winter of flannel, which can be bought
by any one willing to work and earn
living, plain, ready-made clothing for
boys and men, and plain clothing for
women and girls, not expensive, if I'M
necessary display is avoided; rubber
goods to keep off dampness and rain
also cheap; ventilationand cleanliness,
which can be secured by those who
are not rich, but Industrious, as well
as by the rich; sleep, with healthy and
