HE WANTED TO DIE.
Probably Il Woman at the Bottom
of the Trouble.

Charles Rackham, resident of Ogden,
attempted suicide late on Wednesday
evening. At about 1L3O, says the Herald,
Or. A. S. Condor was summoned to
Mr.. Charles Rackham's place on the
Bench. On arriving there, the doctor
found Rackham in an almost hopeless
condition from the effects of dose OF
laudanum, administered by his own
hand, evidently with the intention of
shnffilng OFT this mortal coil. The
deadly drug, half an ounce of which
had been taken, had almost completed
its work. and antidotes and the use of
the stomach pump wOuld have been in
effectual. HypOdermic injections of
bel,adonna were reSOrted to-. and in a
short time the patient showed signs of
life. Following this his clothing was
stripped off, and he was whipped for
some time with little switches, which
had the effect of arouSing him consider
ably. He was also tumbled and thrown
around in manner which appeared
terribly cruel, nevertheless 1t was an
effectIal treatment. Rackham has
been kept on the move ever since. in or
der to prevent Sleep and it IS thought
be will recover.
1t is said that woman is in some
way the cause OF the trouble, but we
should think that when he fully recov-
erS consciousness he will come TO the
conclusion that it is better TO wait for
his proper time of departure, than TO
hasten it by unnatural means. The
effect of the switches he will feel for
long time, and it is to be hoped his ex-
perience viii prove to him a valuable
lesson.

grand cinch" on everybody. Through
its operations the traveller or shipper is
cuffed by one road and when in his
anger he turns to the other for
relief he is kicked. If he doesn't
like the entertainment all he has to do
is grit his teeth and bear it. Speaking
generally, the pool" is wonderful ar
rangement, and as wicked in its con-
ception and operations as it is wonder
full. The man who devised 1t was a
greater enemy to his fellow men than
the highwayman.
However, this is of the pool in the alb
stract. There are exceptions to all other
rules, and we trust also to the operation
of pools. The local railways have
formed pool, the particulars of which,
as far as they are obtainable, being
stated in another part of The HERALD
this morning. As to this particular
pool at this particular time THE HERALD
cannot say that it objects. Time must
decide whether or not the operations
will prove beneficial or otherwise
to the country covered by the
pooling arrangement. 1t is possible
to manage and operate the system in a
way that will prove beneficial rather
than injurious to the community. Our
greatest evils since the advent of the Sc
condroadhaye come fromthe uncertainty
as to rates, the roads themselves as well
as the public being timid through doubt
and want of confdenca. 1t is no herit
that the companies have been afraid Of
each other, and if each has not thought
the other was taking advantage of it,
we are mistaken in our reading; and
also if favors and "baits" have not been
conferred and thrown out, we are in
error and our local railroad managers
are peculiar and exceptional in their
compositions and make up. What the
pool should do in the way of benefiting
the public, is to establish perfect conf
dence on the part of all that no one is
getting an advantage, but that all are
receiving the same treatment. While
the pool continues there will at least be
fixity OF rates, which is of great i'm
portance to the business public, and
indirectly to the entire community.
The country can better afford to pay
high rates and have them stable,
than lower ones that f1uctuate and are
attended with doubt They threatened
lessening of the accommodation is mat
ter that need cause no worry. 1t is to
the interest of the roads, pool or no
pool, to run all the trains that the pub
lie want and are willing to pay for.
Under all these circumstances THE
HERALD is inclined to believe the pool
will not be injurious to the community.
1t certainly will not be if charges are
not increased beyond reason. As to
this we will have to wait.

A SOCIETY MATTER.

The Philadelphia papers tell of the
institution in that city of suit in the
progress and result of which society will
be deeply interested. One evening last
month Miss Mabel Hearne, young
lady OF good reputation and bewitching
manners, attended ball given by a
fashionable society; her dress was of
black velvet, cut after the style of the
LONDON court dress, very low-necked
back and front. and exposing GOO d v
proportion of the fair wearer's magni-
ficent bust. When the first set was
called Miss Hearne, having Invested
herself of her wraps, went on the floor.
leaning upon the arm of a well-known
society young man, whereupon n
director OF the ball stepped up and
quietly informed her that she
must leave the floor, as her dress was
entirely too decolette for the modest
eyes OF the good people present. Had
Miss Mabel's escort been cut after the
pattern OF the average young man, and
MISS Mabel been young lady of the
ordinary style, that director would have
required some assistance to get out of
the hall, and it might have been neces-
sary to sweep him up before removing
him, while Miss Hearne amused her
self and the company by either scream
ing or fainting while the scrimmage
was in progress. BUTT seems that the
lady aid her gallant were not familiar
with the ways OF society west of the
Quaker City; they retired from
The ballroom, and the next day Miss
Hearne brought suit against the
director for $4,000 damages. When
the trial comes on the interest will be-
gin, and the verdict will be of vast i'm
portance to the social world.
1t has often been alleged that ladies,
dresses were too short, some asserting
that the unnecessary abbreviation ex-
listed at the bottom and others that it
was to be found at the top; in the case.
of "Adamless Eden" and female min.
strel troupes we believe the society yer.
dict IS that the apparel is too short at
both ends. But the law has never. to
our knowledge, been called upon to saw
just how much of her neck. shoulders
and adjacent territory a beautiful
woman may expose without offend
ing decency and good taste.
All classes of people will readily admit
that the line should be drawn some
where, and it is hoped the Philadelphia
judge and jury will be able to determine
the point between modesty and vulgar
ity, when people viii know just how
much or how little to expect when they
attend fashionable balls.
Meantime we hope Miss Hearne has
informed her escort that she viii in
future dispense with his services when
going into society.

THE POOL.

THE HERALD had hoped that the UNI
popular arrangement known as the
pool would never strike the Utah
railroads. We hoped this because we
are for the people and the pool is against
the people. 1t is an arrangement in
vented by railroad managers few years
ago, forsAe purpose of depriving the
public of'fhe benefits of competition ,n

was brought out for the purpose. of

a sPUNKY PREACHER.

Rev. f. J.. Hubbard, pastor of the Bran
DIVINE NJ. f. Church, this city. is a man
weighing probably about $50 pounds ayoir-
dupois, 80 per cent. of which is pure back
bone. Some time ago we made mention
of his reading a remonstrance from his pull
pit against a certain liquor seller of that
village. Said liquor seller made two or
three attempts to get a license renewed,
but was as often defeated by the remon-
strances sent in by the people. Becoming
ineensed he determined to make another
attempt and swore dire vengeance against
the preacher. and went so far as to enter
the church to watch who signed the re-
monstrance. He declared he never inter-
fered with their id religion" and he
wanted his license and was going to have
it. He sent word to the preacher that he
wanted to see him, Ono doubt for a pugil-
istic encounter), but the preacher sent
word back that he could lick him either
with tongue, pen, fist or boot" The rum
seller did not get his license and here the
matter stands. Oh for 10. 900 Hubbards in

..FOT WOULD YOU TAKEe"

She was ready for bed and lay on my arm,
In her little frilled cap so fine,
With her golden hair falling out at the edge.
Ill a circle of noon sunshine.
And / hummed the old tune of ''Banbury
Cross
And .Three Men who put out to Sea-"
When she sleepily said, as she closed her blue
eyes,
"Papa, fot would You take for NEE
And answered, "a dollar, dear little heart, y
And she slept baby weary with play,
And / held her warm in my love strong arms
And rocked her and rocked away.
o., the dollar meant all the world to me-,
The land, the sea and the sky,
The lowest depths of the owest place,
The highest of all that's high.
The cities with streets and palaces,
Their pictures and stores of art,
/ would not take for one low, soft throb,
Of my little ones loving heart.
Not all the gold that was ever found
In the busy Notwithstanding past,
Would take for one smile of my darling's face,
Did 1 know 1t must be the last.
So / rocked my baby and rocked away,
And | felt such a sweet content,
For the words of the song expressed to me
more
Than they ever before had meant.
And the night crept ON and slept and dreamed
Ofthings far too glad to be,
And l Weakened with lips saying close in my
ear,
"Papa, fot would you take for me-"
