A MANS Life Ruined by Forgetting
This Important Fact.


San Francisco Examiner.
There goes man whose life wns
ruined by forgetting the simple character
or said prominent railrosd man yes
tprday, pointing to ragged, besotted
man stumbling along the street, unmiad'
full OF the rain.
He was train dispatcher on the
Ohio e. Mississippi railroad once, having
worked up to that position from messel-
ger boy in the telegraph Office. Que
Sunday no had only two trims on his
division, an express train westward
buuai and fast stock train running
east. The day was warm and sultry, and
Bin, for that wss his name, had bard
work to keep awake. BE knew that 40
soon as he made the meeting point for
the two trains he could d9za, ard he i'm
patiently awaited the time. When the
trains were close enough together for
MIN to figure a meeting point he
sent M order 10 the passenger
train to meet END pass tho stock train
al a little station called Willow Valley,
fixing tbs time at 1850. To the stock
train he sent All order :het it could have
until 1.26 to make WILLOW Valley for the
passenger. Fee tho mistaken He forgot
the U, and hence gave the stock train 80
minutes more than he should, Bill saw
his mistake 10 minutes alter be made it,
but there beicg no Telegraph station be-
tween the points where the trains were
given the orders or 1t the meeting point
he could do nothing to rectity il. He
Rent for the superintendent and ordered
out the wreosing crew, then sat ut the
hey, pale as destb, the cold ptrsp iration
running down his face in streams, await
ing news OF the collision.
1T came. Tie passenger srlin reached
Willow Valley on time, waited the re-
qlired 80 minutes under the time oGTd
rules fos tho freight train and then
pulled cut. Three minutes later tue two
ira'na met on cntye, both running a. q
tiRh rate of spaea. Fourteen lives were
lUH. in tine collision, besides 100000
worth OF properly destroyed. BIZ re.

asserting that the more those men who for
merly would have made books devote them
selves to journalism, the more will the great
art Of literature prosper, and the more mon
umental works will be produced. whether
the tendency OF journalism to absorb men OF
literary faculty will or will not prove detrl-
mental to the creation OF works OF apidlnG
beauty and value, is an extremely compile
Gated question, not to be settled prIor',
but whose solution must be left to the next
age. Our own opinion, based on the analogy

Mr.. MoRLEYs We believe that scores
OF English lawyers, had not their tai
ents been devoted to winning tho pc
cunlary prizes OF the bur, might nave
written jurlstic treatises fully equal
to those Of JOHN AUSTIN and HENRY SUM

likely to prefer to the plaudits OF posterity
the attainment OF IN adequate ana hohora-

families. We do not think that the gratiii-
cation of this preference through Journalism
Is often compatible with tho production OF

that not only SoUTHBY but CoLERlDdE, not
to mention Sir EDWIN ARNOLD, combined

Liuuor for Leaisla tors.

The Hon. THOMAS BRACKET REED did
| something that has long needed to be done
| when he issued an order last week prOnlDlt-
| ing the sale OF liquor in the House rcstau-
rant. An unlicensed rum shop in the Capt.
tol was not a pleasing spectacle, and both
| Prohibtionsts and anti-Prohibitlonists
should applaud Mr.. REEDS order. 1t Is
true that the only immediate result OF the
order was that members Of the House went
to the Senate restaurant to get drink, but
1t is not Mr.. REEDS fault il the Senate res
taurant continues to sell rum. The Senate
restaurant Is kent by Maine man, and
many gibes have been thrown at Mr.. REED
on that account, the wags INSISTING that ne
was shutting off tho House bar so as to
benefit the Maine man at the other END OF
the Capitol The Hon. WILLIAM PITT FRYE
is the person to look after liquor selling IN
the Senate restaurant, and 1t Is his duty to
endeavor to have the Senate bar closed at
whatever cost to the pockets oil his con-
stituent, its keeper.
But it seems that even Mr.. REEDS virtue
Is not as Roman as has been supposed. Ihls
account OF his paper backedness comes from
despatch to the Ne,1 Haven Register:
Speaker REED has bent under the pressure OF tndig
nation that his order closing the House bar has raised
It has been discovered that the Speaker hlmse daily
goes into the in the basement washes his
midday lunch down with pOtAtons OF beer ana lie has
informed OF it, He states that his order only
Affects the standing the bar and drinking and docs
not apply to persons sitting down at tables ana ieSur
ing in either beer whskey twill thus be seen that
tho Speaker introducing the newfanged Boston law
compelling persons to sit at tables in barrooms"
We can hardly believe that Mr. REEDS
great temperance crusade would end so
tamely in day or two. Yet he is goodly
man and a portly, and his weight forbids
his lingering at bar. Can 1t be possible
that for his own personal convenience he has
adopted the cracker with your-cocktail plan,
and brought the Boston system OF soaking
into use In the House restaurant? If he has
been guilty OF conniving at this humbug, we
hope that his friends, the Prohibitionists. will
make things lively for him In his district
next fall. To allow the sale of liquor at
tables, and, nominally, with food. in the
House restaurant, is to authorize the keep
ing Of a saloon without the bar. 1t is not
the bar, Mr.. REEDS prohibition friends will
tell him, that constitutes liquor saloon. 1t
is the sale OF liquor The sale of liquor in
the House restaurant ought to be stopped
But it Is piece of sneaking subterfugc, en-
tirely uncharacterlstic and unworthy of
Tom REED, to stop the sale OF liquoy over
the bar and allow it over the table. That
sort Of reform may do for Boston, but the
rest Of the country can't be bamboo2led by
it. Mr. REED should try again.

Long Island town. Not being at homo when
the messenger called he. did not have oppor-
by some means or other, got tho idea that It
was the mans wife that had died. When he
ly to the afflicted husband aud eynipathized
deeply with him il the loss OF his wife. The
clergyman noticed several times. however
little uneasy and he was almost horrified
once TO Think that he perceived somo OF them
trying hard to repress u smile. When the GAS
ket was opened and permission given to view
the remains. the preacher stepped forward and
1T was an old gentleman. and. he soon

Tho Humpug OF Theosopbv.

The exposure Of the imposture OF Nine.
| BLAvATsKY does not seem to lessen at all
| the prosperity OF her humbug religion.
The last annual report OF the Theosophical
Society tells us that fifteen additional
branches have been formed in this country
during the year. They are chiefly In towns
on the Pacific coast, where the clap-trap
philosophy ls Furnishing more especially at
the moment. The total number of branches
is now thirty-six, and they are organized in
nearly all the great towns of the Northern
States; but at the South the humbug has
gained no hold except at st. Louis, where
there are said to be two societies.
The number Of new members admitted
during the year WAS 1873. and there was one
expulsion, DR.. ELLIOTT CoUEs OF Washing
ton. He Is man Of scientific reputation,
who showed up the lying and trlckery of the
BLAvATsKY woman after having been one Of
her dupes for several years. With her closer
intimates she seems to make little attempt
to conceal her real character as charlatan,
and her hearty contempt for their folly
In taking her seriously Her long sue
cess in keeping up the humbug is. there
fore, all the more astonishing. Whether
her principal disciple, Col. OLcoTT, Is also
playing fraudulent part. it Is hard
to say He seems to be very much In ear
nest, and as she seems to despise him thor
oughly and undisguisedly, laughing at his
antics, 1t Is perhaps presumable that he is
honest and sincere In his credulity. He
treats the snuffy old woman as a verltable
seeress, and reads her mystical writings
with apparent and probably real veneration,
though she has described him to her old
confederate Nine. CoULoMB, as muff OF
the first water. DR.. COUEs is OF very diff
ferent stuff. and he did not hesitate to banter
her ON the success of her trickery. He
seems to have seen through her at an early
day. and the wonder is that man OF his
standing remained In her crowd so long.
Yet among her followers are some people
OF rather more than usual intelligence, and
at ono time there WAS quite a theosophical
craze In Boston itself. We Observe too, that
among the officers Of English branches are
two women of title, and the President OF the
Blavatsky Lodge ID Mrs. ANNIE BRsAET,
who has turned from complete infideity to
rank credulity, accepting the hodge podge
OF theoSoDhy as divine revelation, though
the humbug OF 1t was exposed to the light
before she took 1t up.
Nine. BLAvATsKY has the assurance to
write to her American dupes that her char
latanism is prospering moro than ever,
financially and otherwise. She addresses
them from sick chamber, to which she Is
confined by a mortal disease and yet she
persists in her determination to keep the
imposture going until the. end. She is
an old woman OF wonderful will power
and of unquestionable intellectual ability.
What the motive Of her course is, We
