A Peculiar Railway Accident.

Talking about peculiar railway accidents"
said Mr. Ward, of the Allen Paper Car Wheel
company, II want to tell you of an accident
which happened up in Wisconsin some years
ago. 1t was on the st. Paul road, too. Now,
/ wasn't there and didn't see the wreck, but a
man whom | know to be truthful was, and
he told me all about it. A passenger train
was running along ore day when the conduc-
tor, who was sitting next window, happened
to glance out, and he started up with a cry
of amaZement
MY Godl there's locomotive in the ditch.
"Just then he noticed that the speed of his
train was sackened, and gently came TO a STOP
The conductor looked ahead and saw that
there was no engine on his train. He ran
back and saw that the locomotive in the ditch
was the one that had few moments before
been pulling his train. 1t had jumped the
track, broken its couplings, and gone into
the ditch without making SO much as a jar
1t had cleared the track SO completely that
the train had passed by it. This is explained
in this way: The moment the engine left the
rails it was under full steam and momentum
As it broke from the baggage car next to it
it shot ahead with fearful force. At the same
instant the air brakes were set by the rupture
OF the pipecoupling, and the trains speed be-
done, but don't believe that such thing
ever occurred before or will ever occur again u

A notable building in many ways is the
structure erected in New York for the uses
Of the Young w omen's Christian association
The Y. w. c. A. was planned in 1871 on the
principle of the young mems association of
the same character. Its object is the spiritual
and temporal advancement Of women. For
the first there is Bible class with men,
bership of 1000 A large hall is provided
in the center of the building for musical and
literary entertainments The applicant for
admission to the institution or for relief must
undergo rigid examination in order to shut
out imposters If she is found worthy of
help her wants are provided for as follows:
If stranger in the city seeking home the
association keeps a list of several hundred
boarding houses known to be proper, either
by personal investigation or by reputation,
to which they recommend her. If the appli-
cant is servant they have regular "in-
telligence" office. In needlework they have
three classes, so that a girl may become pro-
ficient in this necessary adjunct to a house
hold. For expert needleworkers they either
provide position or work Ladies leave their
orders for needlework and have it executed
A speciality is made of children's garments
Last year there were 3,O6S garments of this
kind made, the receipts for this department
amounting to $4,000. There are also classes
in writing, book keeping, arithmetic, phonog-
raphy and typewriting, while for those with
genius for art, technical design and music
teachers of well known reputation are pro-
yided. There is also library in the building
containing 10000 volumes.

TO MY WIFE.

Lucy, don't you hear the voices, gentle voices in
the air.
Like the waving of pinon, like the painting of
Like song of singers dead,
Like dream of beauty fled,
When we cannot quite remember what the angel
vision said?
Oh, the voices Of the Yesterdays! Times mel
anCholy choir.
With the twilight singing minor and the dawn-
With the clouds Of glory round
And their Draws with garlands bound,
And million golden minutes strewn like grain
upon the ground.
All they must be up the river, and it cannot be
dream,
And is waiting to your ears
What your list'ning spirit hears,
Till the past grows dim and DINNER through the
mist of many years.
And little form in white seems to rise beyond
the rain,
And little hand to beckon and little voice
To your heart a moment pressed,
Then away to be guest
And to sing among the angels in the Garden Of
the best.
For the little infant spirit that brighter angel
A darker angel challenged at the threshold of
the door,
And he bade it back again,
As returns morning rain
TO the heaven DER the mountain and the glory
DER the main.
In his arms the angel clasped her, and as she
turned and smiled,
He crowned you there, the mother of a sinless
angel child.
All, the beauty that she wore,
Borne so sweetly on before,
Just to learn the heaven for welcome to the
bright and blessed shore.
But, Lucy, twill be by and by, when Junes have
followed June,
And many a sad December night has played
solemn tune
When the snow upon your hair
Forgets to melt and linger there,
And form so frail and faded trembles in the old
armchair.
Then here's my hand, my dearest, Wen travel
on together
In days both clear and cloudy, in rude and rainy
weather,
Till the winter at the last
Shall the shadows eastward cast
And our lives and love together shall be blended
in the Past.

Sensible Won en-.


Sociaized education does not necessarily

all professional men be personally charm

they all are not. A girl may be a sound

critic, faultless grammarian, yet be want

clear observation, ready sympathy and no.
BILE self-control which makes companion
able wife and valuable mother. Nor is
unprofessional and unspecialized instruc-
ton necessarily synonymous with ldleness
and ignorance; while good, all-round
education is likely to prove more servicea-
BILE in the home and in society than one or
two supreme accomplishments. Many OF
us make the mistake of confOunding edu
cation with requirements, and OF running
together mental development and intellect
nal specialization. The women of whom
we are most proud of in our history were
not remarkable for special intellectual ac-
ouirements so much as for genial charac-
ter and the harmonious working of will
and morality. The Lady Fanshawes and
Elizabeth Frys, the Mary Carpenters and
Florence Nightingales, whose names are
practically immortal, were not noted for
their learning but they were none the less
women whose mark in history is indeli-

years. However, the barbed wire fence pat
ent has run out, and Wilson plainly has
gouged him WELL
Moen owns a beautiful residence in Worces-
ter, and is highly respected citizen. He re-
fused to pay the $l0O, 600. hence the law suit,
which he has won at the first trial But the
law, instead of clearing up the matter, has
only deepened the mystery. What did Moen
pay Wilson SO much money for! However
weak Mr.. Levi Wilson's whiskers are, his
power of keeping a secret is sufficiently
strong. Moen denies there was any secret at
all worth speaking of, and declares it was a
case of pure blackmail. But why, then, did
he pay this shrewd young man $350,O00!
So far, the affair shows that secrets can be
kept, even in our age Of the world, in spite
of newspapers and detectives. One surmise
is that there was woman story in the re-
spectacle Mr.. Moen's case, and that he
wouldn't have had it get out for all the
world. Innocent citizens of the first water
have been trapped by atrociously wicked
women before now, even when the citizen
was 60 years old and no handsomer than Mr.
Moen.
But on the other hand, Wilson says, in the
statement made to his lawyer, that Moen
told me to dress the other man well, and
give him everything he wanted, at his ex-
pense." According to this, it was man
who was in the case. Wilson claimed only
to be the agent for this other man, and says
the sums of money were got for him. Moen
again vowed that there was no other man,
and that Wilson spent the money "his own
self "

Mr. Mcneil is an official in the Knights of
Labor organization and is besides connected
with the statistical department of the Massa-
chusetts labor bureau. 1t is odd how per-
sistently that word "labor' keeps popping up,
so that there is no avoiding it. The word
necessitates a repetition in writing that
would not be tolerated a moment in elegant
composition. Just so. before the subject is
done with, the cause it represents win force
itself upon the notice of circles that have
deemed themselves quite too elegant to listen
to it.
George E. Mcneil is well qualified to write
a book on the question of the day. He was
born in Andover. Mass. His father was the
neighbor of and co-worker for freedom to the
slave with John G. Whittier in the old days
of rotten egging and dead eating Aboli-
tionists.
AS boy George Mcneil worked in the
woolen factories of Andover. Then he
learned the shoemaker's trade. Questions of
workingmen's rights and duties were familiar
to him from an early age. The great factory
strike of 1851 took place while he worked In
the woolen mill He afterward became a
high officer in the Sons Of Temperance, and
a member of the Eight Hour league. He
was president Of the Eight Hour league for
eight years. He has worked as faithfully as
the original founders of the Knights Of Labor
for the education and enlightenment of work
ingmen, establishing numerous schools and
evening classes for them. 1t would take too
much space to name all the labor Organiza-
tions which he has founded or been con-
nected with He is man of electric energy
and iron strength, both of which have been
spent ceaselessly He has been mechanic,
speaker, writer and editor, showing that
when a man is harmoniously developed he
can do almost everything, and do it well.
But one of the best of Mr.. McNeil's achieve
ments is the writing of his book on the his
tory of the labor movement.
The book is a work of over 600 pages, illus
trated with portraits of founders and leaders

Faultless but SOulless,

A correspondent asks Bill Nye what he
thinks of his composition, specimens of which
he sends him, and the humorist answers: in
the first place, your style of composition is
like the present style Of dress among men. 1t
is absolutely correct, and, therefore, it is alb
solutely like that of nine men out of every
ten we meet. Your style of writing has a
mustache on it, wears three-button cut
away of some Scotch mixture, carries cane
and wears straight, stand-up collar and
scarf. 1t is SO correct and SO exactly in con-
formity with the prevailing style of COM
position, and your thoughts are expressed SO
thoroughly like other peoples methods of
dressing up their sentences and sand paper
ing the soul out of what they say, that 1 hon
estly think you would succeed better by try
ing to subsist upon the quick sales and small
profits which the drug trade insures."

But Mr.. Romeis, who, in the meantime, had
settled in Toledo, O., was not satisfied with
business success alone He studied pub
lie affairs, and in 1874 his fitness to
serve the people was recognized by his
fellow citizens, who made him an alder
man. By 1879 he had become mayor,
and he held that Office until 1884, admins
tering the city's affairs with prudence and
discretion. During his third term as mayor
he was nominated for congress by the Re-
publicans against Hon. Frank Hurd, the
eminent free trader. The fight was spirited
one but Romeis won, as he did this year
when nominated for a second term. despite
his opponents talents, adroitness and po-
litical experience. Romeis' majority this
year was ! ,4S6.
Mr. Romeis' career should encourage poor
young men, for it shows that in this broad
land of ours any one who has talents and de-
termination may win prize i'll the great
tournament we call human life.

Opium in Insanity.

misunderstanding with England was speedily

Arthurs next important office was that OF
collector of the port Of New York. To this
day in that city his administration OF the
office is spoken Of as model one. 1t would
have gladdened the hearts of the civil service
reformers if they had existed at that time.
He made no changes at all except for cause,
and removals during his term were only 81
Der cent of the force per year as against %
per cent in the time of his predecessor. Pro-
motions were made by regular system OF
advancement from lower to higher grades.
When nominated for the vice presidency
he held no office except chairman of the state
republican committee Of New York. He
was a warm partisan and warm friend,
and this led to all the trouble which culmi-
mated in the assassination of Garfield But
after that tragic event, whatever could have
been said of him before, his behavior was

Republican member from New Jersey, whose
term is about to expire.
Mr.. Dohahue is young man with a beard
less face. He was born in Wales in 1859, but
of Irish parentage. When 10 years old he
came to America, settling in Paterson. Two
years later he began to earn his own living,
working first in a jute factory, then in silk
factory, and then as compositor on Rev. j. J.
Currans Weekly Times. For two summers he
has been employed by the bureau of statistics
of labor and industries as enumeration. He is
a Knight of Labor, and for four years has
done much to further the order in Paterson.
The majority given him over Brown on the
first count was 73. The Republican majority
in the district last year was 72O.

WOMAN RECEIVING A LETTER.

She took the letter in her hand,
The envelope she keenly scanned; 4
The address several times she read.
Il wonder who it's FROM she said; -
II know the writing very well, ~
But whose it is cannot tell"
With curiosity she burned,
And straightway to the postmark turned.
The postmark, that will end the doubt
Twas blurred; she could not make it out.
A dark cloud Ger her visage stole,
And keenest anguish wrung her soul.
The address she again pcrused,
who can have written it:'' she unused.
She could not with the problem cope,
And SO she broke the envelope.
Her last resource, she mad no better
And then she knew who wrote the letter.
