There is nothing-no, nothing
innocent or good, that dies and is
forgotten; let us hold 20 that faith,
or none. An infant, prattIing
child dying in the cradle will live
again in the better thoughts of
those that loved it, and play its
part through them in redeeming
actions of the world, though it's
body be burned to ashesor drowned
in the deep sea.-Dickens.

HELPING THE SCALPERS.
A Young Man Caught Copying a
Railroad Dispatch.


Shortly after O'Clock yesterday after
noon, slight ripple of excitement was
caused at the Wolfskill depot of the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company, by
the arrest of youth named P. J. Dodge,
under somewhat suspicious circum-
stances. He was caught in the act of
copying private circular from Assistant
Superintendent Muir to the conductors
employed by the company, warning them
to take up scalper's tickets. To obtain
access to this document he had, in the
absence of Mr.. Muir, entered his office,
but the com pany's detective, Will Smith,
noticed him acting in a suspicious mai :
ner, and, watching him closely, pounced
upon him while he was engaged in copy
ing the contents of the circular. A
telephone message was responded to by
Chief of Police Glass in person, and the
youth was taken up to the Police Sta
tion.
Instead of being locked up, however,
he was taken into the Chiefs private
office and after about an hours interview
with that gentleman, released with a
warning. He stated that he vas en-
ployed by the Santa Fe Railroad Com
pany as night inspector Of cars; but it
is believed that he ia paid by a certain
firm of ecalpers to keep them "posted"
as to the inside affairs at the railroad
headquarters. This supposition is based
upon the fact that he was copying q
private circular referring to them, and in
all probability is a correct one.

About 100 years ago man named

flute, and the dog moved towards
him as though glad to see him. 4.

Words of Wisdom.
nan is born for love.


Woman is born for love.
Think well before taking action.
Live to explain thy doctrine by
thy life,
Happiness is not perfected until it
is shared.
The tender, humble, broken heart
is the best thank offering.
He who wisely uses his wealth
need not leave it for his tombstone.
Do the truth you know, and you
shall learn the truth you need to
know.
The sight of a mans money is Oft
time the antidote for the order of
very bad character.
The most delicate, the most sensi.
BILE of all pleasures, consists in pro-
noting the pleasures of others.
A woman may be ugly, ill-shaped,
wicked, ignorant, silly and stupid.
but hardly ever ridiculous.
Do not wait for extraordinary OPP
portunities for good actions, but
make use of common situations.
But the path of the just, as a shi-
ming light, goeth forward, and in
creaseth even to perfect day. The
way of the wicked is darksome; they
know not where they fall.
The things which thy eyes have
seen utter not hastily in a quarrel,
lest afterward thou mayst not be
able to make amends, when thou
hast dishonored thy friend.
No one can ask honestly or hope
fully to be delivered from temptation
unless he has himself honestly and
firmly determined to do the best he
can to keep out of it.
