acts of his life and all the incidents that
he might have cause to regret, and, in
fact, in that snort time u panorama oi
his whole life passed in a rapid and dag
ing manner before his minu's eye, por-
traving its bright and dark s;deg. The
present had just been unfotded to his
view when the train struck the car and
his hand receiving a blow he fell to the
ground under the cars. AS good luck
would have it the car to which he had
been ~clinging was a foreign car and had
a high truck, otherwise he would have
been ground to pieces, as the truck
passed completely yer him.
All this time the hands who were
standing around were so Mortified that
they were unable to signal the engineer
to reverse, but now the engine was
stopped and a general rush was made
to where Mr.. Dean was lying, all expect
ing to see his mangled remains, instead
of which they saw him crawling out from
beneath the cars, and TO say they were
happily surprised is but mildly express
it.

MISCELLANEOUS Matters.

A man at Ogden, Utah, who brought a
suit for divorce against his wife because
she was a scold, explained to the court
a rather ingenious leans he had devised
TO silence her when she was ~quarrelsome
and by what he had been enabled to
live with her for ten years. He knew
that she had a perfect horror of rats,
and soon after their marriage he kept a
supply of them on hand. When her
temper got the better of her he would
let one out Of its cage into the room,
and it always silenced her.
During the late excavations undertake
enin the Roman Forum, there has been
found a pot containing 500 old Anglo
Saxon coins Of the time Of Pope Marin.
MS III, 1882 884). They are Of English
coinage and rare value, most OF them
showing heads of the English kings oil
the rerioj, and one having the head OF
an Archbishop Of Canterbury. The prob.
abilities are that the money belonged
to the Saxon school then In Rome. the
existence of which renders IL probable
that there were many Englishmen in
Rome In these days.

NEW TACO MA.
The Northwestern Terminus OF the
Northern Pacific Railroad.

The Northwestern Terminus OF h
Northern Pacific Railroad.
Tacoma, the terminus of the Northern
Pacific railroad, is far different in Its
surroundings and general features from
San Francisco, yet it claims much at en-
ton from eastern cousins, as we'll as from
Ca%lirornians and Oregonians. To most
people, the first view is one of disap'
pointment, folIowe d almost instantly by
the question, Can this be the terminus
of the Northern Pacific?" But such the
president and board of directors of this
road have affirmed it to be, whether for
ali time to come or only for the present,
is still q moOted question.
At the head of this great inland sea,
Puget Sound, lies q safe harbor, with
anchorage for ships. Overhanging it is
a deep bluff, 26O feet i'll height, upon
which Tacoma is built. The town is
reached by q steoply-grated roadway
leading from the waters edge. There
is Just roo enough along the shore for
Wharves and tracks for cars. Manid.
cent coal bunkers, built at a cost of 49,
ono, extend far into the Sound and large
saw mil S are also built IN piles, and
skirt the town. Bat the business por-
ton of our terminus is mainly built
above. l. is laid out apparently Oh a
grand scale, with broad streets well
graded. The houses rise tier above tier,
stretching far lack to the forest ofgiant
frs that serve as q background. Ten
years ago this was a vast wilderness. Now
it boasts of 1000 inhabitants. These are
mainly emplo, ed in the railroad and
car shops, the saw mills and the coal
bunkers. Most of the buildings are
wooden, and bear the" appearance of
being put up in a hurry. And, in fact,
they have. having tr pied in the last
three years. Some fine buildings have
been built recently, however, amsng
them a large bank and a railroad hotel,
the latter at a cost of Sl25, 600. A stone
church, the finest north OF San Francis
co, was finished two months ago.. 1t
was built by Charles Wright, one of the
Directors of the Northern Pacific, who
is styled here the Father OF Tacoma. 1t
is erected In memory of his wife and
daughter, lately deceased. The cost is
$4,000. 1t was made q free will gift to
the Episcopal Church. The same gen.
tleman is now building a girls school at
a cost of So, 900. This is entirely at his
own expense. A fine public school,
worth $20,n00 was opened recently.
There are also various private schools
and a number of churches. However,
1t is still an embryo city, but fortune
points to a promising future which even
the recent depression of N. 2. r. X.
stocks cannot annoy.
Standing oyer all is the grand old SEN
tinel Mt. Tacoma, stern in his mantle of
eternal snow, a magnificent feature in
the landscape. And far before our eyes
lies the blue waters of the Soun4. Ia
conn has many possibilities which time
certainly will realize.

Looking Death in the Eye.

Mr.. VIII Dean, a brak eman on the
Baltimore and Ohio Road, had q hair

yesterday about noon at Benwood. He

had some switching to do. When the
accident occurred he was walking back

to an agent at Port Jervis to hold the
East hound train when it arrived there
until ne heard from the Superintendent.
The latter then told the engineer OF his
train to go ahead, and they would run
on telegraph signals. The engineer re;
fused to take the risk. superintendent
Minot ordered the engineer off the en-
CINE and grasped the lever himself. He
ran the train, teIegraphing orders ahead
at each station. The ~east-bouud train
reached Port Jervis and was run to Otis
vile, twelve miles eastward, while the
west bound train was making its way
westward at the same time On telegraph,
ic signals. At Otisyille the ast-ooqnd
train took the switch, and the !other
train passed it, reaching Port Jergis on
time. This was the end of the old sys-
tenn Ct runn1ng trains, and was the origin
of telegraphic signals in running rail-
road trains.

The First Train Run BY Tel
graph.

New York Times.
The year 1850 marked an era in rail-
road management, not only in this
country but in the world, for In that
year 1t was successfully demonstrated
that trains need not be run blindly
from station to station, but shat the tele-
graph could be madn the means OF di-
rectiug them on their way. Up to that
time IL was the rule of trains going west
on the Erie TO run to regular stopping
places, whore they took the switch un-
til the train running against them,
from the West should pass, and vice
versa, as locality made necessary. The
train in the switch could not 20 on until
the opposite train passed and con-
seguently delays Of hours duration
we're common. One day In 1850, when
Charles Minot was superintendent of
the road, q passenger train from New
York reached Turner's Station, where
II was to wait for an Eastern bound train
20 arrive on its time. superintendent
Minot was ON the train. He tele-
graphed to Port Jervis. and learned
shat the train had not reached that place
yet. Then tho idea struck hIFn that he
could run both Of the trains by the
telegraph and SAVE hours Of delay to
the Weet-bound train. He telekraDhed

 Mrs. Laura Rawson has filed on and will improve the quarter section of land lying between the school house and new town. This includes all of the park lying south of new town and west of the slaughter house of P. B. BraLnen X Co.
 Several prominent citizens advc cate the propriety of calling public meet ing and appointing committee to investigate chimneys and ventila,ors and take necessary steps to protect the town from fire. While in an un- incorporated town there is probably no law to compel compliance with such an arrangement, yet cur people are public s irited in all things for general good, and if meeting was called no doubt it would result bene- ticially.

 About two o'clock yesterday after noon blaze was discovered issuing from the roof of the Flagstaff hotel. The town was warned, perhaps for the first time, with the startling cry of fire!

WHITMAN CoLLEaE.-From the report
of President Anderson of Whitman Col
lege, located at Walla walla. w. T.. We
learn that there has been but little sick
ness among the students during the
year. On the whole the conduct Of the
students has been all that could be ex
pected. In the previous wear some came
who did not wish to study, and soon
found that they were III the wrong
place, but during the past year nearly
many of them had attended all through
the year. The financial condition was
referred to. Ten thousand dollars has
been secured toward endowment and
meeting present wants by Rev. Gushing
Ellis. ID. d.. and probably 5000 more
will be secured by him before he re-
turns. Mrs. N. I. Cobleieh has gone
East to raise money for Ladies'
Boarding Hall, and is succeeding finely
in that enterprise, 80 that IL is hoped
mer. The new building put mp since
the close of last year will be paid for by
the citizens of Walla Walla and vicini-
ty. Tho building is an ornament as
we'll as a greatly needed blessing.
There have been l2l students ia attend
ance during part or all Of the year.
