WIT AND WISDOM.

seek the good OF other men, says
Lord Bacon, .'but be not in bondage to
their faces or fancies.'
The silent pressure of the hand is
often of more vital good than whole
volume of good counsel.
i have seldom seen much ostenta-
ton and much learning met together.
The sun, rising and declining makes
long shadows, and at midday, when he
is highest, none at all. HUI.
Men and women make sad mis-
takes about their own symptoms-tak-
ing their vague, uneasy longings, some
times for genius, sometimes for re-
ligion, and, oftener still, for a mighty
love.

in money-and mean for the sake OF
getting money riches-that he finds out
how little comfort and pleasure and
how few real friends money will bring
him. N. Q. Picayune.

There is difference between en-
ergy, force and vigor. Energy is con-
nected with the idea of acting, force
with that of capability, and vigor with
that of health. Energy lies only in
the mind, while force and vigor are the
property of either body or mind.

How many bitter thoughts does the

A Fight with Train Men and Their Subse-
quent Capture After Creating Reign OF
lerror-One Killed.
pR1HGFIELD, Mass, Nov. 1S.-A gang
of tramps boarded local freight train
Yesterday on the Boston & Albany rail-
road, between this city and Indian Or
chard. When the train stopped at Indian
Orchard station they were put off. While
the switching was going on they attempt
ed to board the train again, and brisk
fight ensued. The train hands beat the
men off with coupling pins, and the
rutfians retallated by throwing stones
until the train got out of reach. They
then terrorized the community, and help
was summoned from this city. A special
train was made up with force of police
men on board.
The tramps were met just west of In
dian Orchard station, and the officers
gave chase, each singing out man.
Six were captured in this way, and sew
enth was shot and killed. The shooting
was probably accidental, as City Marshal
Clune, who did the shooting, drew his re-
volver to frighten the man. The dead
man is supposed to be bank burglar.
He had nearly thirty dollars on his per-
son, and looked like man unaccustomec
to hard work or tramping. He was fairly
dressed, five feet nine inches high, and
weighed 10 pounds. A letter from New
York City, dated in October and begin
ming "Dear Brother" was found in his
pocket and on various articles were the
names: 'John McMean," august Son
neberg. Ft Wayne, Ind.;" also the ad-
dress, "No. 10 High street."

IMPENDING STRIKE.

A Reduction Of Wages ON the c., b. Z q.
to BE Followed ny . Tle-Up.
DKs MoINEs, Iowa, Sept. 2O.-The mad
dest men that have been seen in this city
for long time are the engineers, firemen,
brakemen and conductors of the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy railway to-day. A
few months ago the employees asked for an
advance and they expected that their de-
mands would be granted, but to-day they
were amazed when they received the new
schedule to find that instead Of an advance
they are reduced in their wages, ranging
from S to SIS . month. A brakeman told
. reporter that they were upon the eve Of
one of the worst strikes in the history Of
the road; that IL would be an equal to the
strike Of 1877. He said that not man on
the entire line would accept . reduction in
wages and that when the first of the month
comes all hands arc expected to quit wsrk
and tie the road up. Tho reason for the re.
duction In wages IL not known to the men,
but . number Of them attribute IL to the
fact that the company has lost 30 much
over their last strike that they are not able
70 pay present wages.

WHEAT STOLEN.

Bold Thefts Of Commlsslon Man In Min
Deapolls.
AINNEAPoLIs, MIMI, Sept. Nv. q.
Hanley, we'll known commission dealer
and . member Of the hrm Of Peterson &
Hanley, was arrested about midnight ON .
warrant charging him with stealing 5000
bushels Of wheat from the Minneapolis
Union elevator in Southeast Minneapolis.
The elevator company II said TO have dis
covered that about $1,000 bushels Of
wheat have been stolen BY overload
ing cars. The cars leaving the ele-
vators were to have contained 500
bushels each. II is now positively
known that they were overloaded and that
to the extent Of SO, 100 and sometimes $50
bushels. Hanley had been d. G. Moakes
& Co.'S cashier and bookkeeper. A rather
singular coincidence in connection with
this affair IL the unexpected suspension Of
d. c. Moakes & Co., grain dealers, which
firm made an assignment yesterday when
. large amount Of its paper went to pro-
test. Others suspected Of completely are
well known wheat men and the announce
ment Of their names would cause . pro-
found sensation. By advice Of his attor-
ney Hanley refused to talk.

THE WABASH WRECK.

Suspicion That the Late Wreck Was the
Work Of Enemies Of the Burlington.
ST. LOUIS, Sept. H.-It 10 now believed
that the wreck on the Wabash Western
Wednesday night was the work Of parties
who had some grudge against the road,
and that it was intended for Burlington
train. The special train of Superintend-
emit Magee, Of the Wabash Western, re-
turning from the wreck yesterday came
near sharing . like fate. It was being
backed in, running about fifteen miles an
hour, when, at Huntley's crossing, near
this city. it struck an obstruction and the
occupants of the car received q severe
shaking up. The train was stopped and
run back and an investigation showed
that heavy beam II inches square and 10
feet long had been pried into . cattle
guard and braced against the ground,
pointing west. The timber had struck the
brake beam between the forward truck
and caboose and then the axle of the
trucks, and would have dsrailed and
wrecked the train but for the fact that the
trsstle work Of tho cattle guard gave way.
A searching investigation win be made.

Letter From Major Barttelot Concsrning
the nl-Fsted Relief Expedition.
LONDON, Sept 20.-Major Barttelot in
his letter to the Emin relief committee UNI
der date of June 4, just previous to the
starting Of the expedition complained that
Tippoo lib had broken faith; that he
had promised to bring 800 men and had
brought only 400; and that he showed .
decided objection to the affair and opposed
the expedition, particularly insisting upon
tightening the ammunition. The loss Of
stores resulting from Tippoo's action and
from the fact that only half the expected
number Of carriers were supplied was most
serious. Barttelot speaks we'll of all the
European officers concerned. Tippoo lib
had furnished an influential headsman for
the expedition in whom Barttelot ap-
peared to have confidence. The expedi-
ton was largely composed Of Manyemas.
Barttelot said that to the best of his knowl.
edge Stanley was not dead, but that he
could not get any news from him; that he
intended TO take the same route, and II he
should fail to hear Of Stanley to press on
to Wadelai and ask Emin to Join him in
the search.
"Tippoo Tib," he said, "has not the re-
hottest intention Of helping US any more,
but to withdraw now would be pusillani-
nous, and will therefore proceed to the
best OF my ability"
