railroad officials for making such strong
opposition TO the street railroad.
The Weapons of Warfare
were those usually resorted to by mobs.
The employees OF the New York, New
Haven and Hartford had stones, picks,
axes, shovels ana sticks, while the towns
people used shotguns. revolvers and pretty
nearly every other conceivable method OF
defense.
Deputy Sheriff Cushman, veteran
officer of 20 years. approached the mob
before hostilities began and very inn
prcssiyely commanded the people to dis
perse in the name OF the commonwealth.
They would not obey, and the selectmen
then rushed TO the telephone Office and
telephoned TO Brockton for assistance.
Mayor Keith, who is member OF the
governors council. was in Boston. SO the
much desired assistance of the shoe city
bluecoats could not be procured.
Governor Russell was then called mp
and made aware OF the facts. He eagerly
inquired into the extent of the riot, and
asked the selectmcn If they had exerted
every effort to
oueu the Disturbance.
The town fathers replied that they had,
and asked that drastic measures be taken.
They asked his excellency IL he could
not send Company l, M. V. NJ, from
Brockton, but the governor did not think
it was necessary The governor then no
titled Chief Wade Of the state police Of
the affair, and ordered him to go to the
scene of the riot at once, with such force
of men as was necessary.
4. This was about 3 o'lock. when the bat
tie was raging the hercest, and the chief,
accompanied by Officers White, Moore,
Mullen, Bardwell, Halstrick, Griffin,
Plunkett, Rhodes aud Pratt, was, in less
than an hour, upon the scene of the fray.
They were armed to the teeth and would
not have dealt with the mob very
leniently. When they arrived the battle
was over, and decision by Judge Bond
of the superior court made the big corpo-
ration giveway.

A College Joke.

AS good an example as can be given of the jokes played on new students is the ancient "Pempe" of Winchester college. On the first appearance of a boy in the school a companion will ask him with a kindly air if he has book called 'Pempe Moron Proteron" Greek for "Send the fool farther'), without which it will be impossible to properly get through his work. Of course he will say "No," and then he will be sent on wild goo~a chase from one boy to another in the hopes of obtaining copy. The game is kept up with great spirit until the older boys are tired of the fun, and then the green lad is referred to one of the mas- ters, who, instead of giving him vol- tune, as he expects, ends his trouble by explaining to him the joke of "Pempe."

SELF SACRIFICE.
Without Justffiable Motive It Becomes .
 Sentimental yagary.

Without Justifable Motive It Becomes .
 Sentimental yagary.
 Young Lanyan, the midshipman, wi.o went down with Admiral Tryon on tic Victoria, was sentimental lad You had better jump" cried the admiral te the boy.
 ''Fd rather stay with you" was the midshipman's reply.
 The boys loyalty to the admiral was pathetic, but 1t was barren display of affection The admiral was right. The lad ought to have jumped and made resolute effort to save his life. The ad- miral had weighty reasons for preferring to stay at his post. The midshipman's life was flung away from sheer excess of sentiment.
 Equally wasteful and unjustifable was the zeal of New Jersey workman, who listened to lady's frantic appeal for the rescue of her dog, which was founder ing in pond. She fancied that her pet was ;n extreme danger. The workman plunged into the water and swan out to the dog. There he was suddenly attacked with cramp and was drowned before the lady's eyes. The dog swan ashore and parked from the bank at the rescuer, whose intentions had been misunder- stood. It was more than foolish for man to risk his life for hysterical lady's pet dog.
 Another workman in Brooklyn played better part. A cry of Horse run away!' was raised while he was chattir :, with friend. A frightened horse was tearing up the street with wagon be- hind him, but no driver. Directly ia his track was baby carriage with sleeping child. The nurse, who had been wheeling the carriage across the street, had been frightened by the outcries of bystanders, and deserting her charge had fled to the sidewalk.
 The workman did not hesitate. Spring ing forward, he caught the animal by the bridle and stopped the horse barely in time to save the child's life. The horse, revolting against capture, reared and made a plunge for liberty. The bri- dle broke in the workman's hands, and he fell under the horses feet. In mo- ment he was trampled to death.
 This workman had wife and children dependent upon him. He undertook a most hazardous feat in attempting to stop the horse by the bridle ends in front of the baby carriage. But although he lost his life and brought calamity upon his household he exhibited singular un- selfshness and fortitude. The sight of the sleeping child exposed to horrible death set his warm heart beating, and generously and impulsively he did the only thing that could have been done for the child's ,scue.
 That was better than useless sacrifice of life for puppy. It was nobler than voluntary suicide with the admiral, who feared q court marshals probable brand of murderer more than he feared death. Unless self sacrifice have adequate mo- tive and justification for the risks, it be- comes a sentimental yagary involving senseless waste of life Youths Com panion.

The Thrifty Japanese.

What is the reason that Japan has no poverty problem? One reason is proba- bly, to be found in the land system, which has given to every worker hold ing and encouraged him to supply his wants by his own labor. There is. too, in Japan a curious absence of ostenta- tious luxury.
 The habits of living are in all classes much the same, and the rich do not out shine the poor by carriages, palaces and jewelry. The rich spend their money on curios, which, if these are costly, is limit ed, and the most popular agitation is against the big European houses which ministers build for themselves. Wealthis thus not absorbed and is more ready for investment in remunerative labor. The last reason which occurs to the mind of a traveller with comparatively few oppor- tunities for forming opinions is the equality of manners in all classes. Rich and poor are alike courteous.

 The governor lets his child go to the common school and sit next to the child of the casual laborer, certain that his child will pick up no bad manners and get no contamination in thought or in person. This equality enables rich and poor to meet as friends, and gifts car pass without degradation.
