Rev. ]. L. Boyd, the pew M. E. pastor,
had narrow escape from death at the
depot when he arrived in this city last
Saturday. He stepped from the K. & w.
train and not seeing the incoming
Burlington train was just in the act of
crossing the track in front of it when
conductor Mike Carey saw him and
pulled him from in front of the engine.
1t was very close call and frightened
those who witnessed the narrow escape.

r. I. Hewitt, of Grand River, died
at the Cottage hospital in Creston
Monday evening about o'clock, where
he had been for the past five weeks for
treatment for cancer, submitting to
third operation week before his
death. His remains were taken to

with her husband, and his death comes

expected at any moment. The many
friends of the family extend their

How Would You Vote. Reader7

How Would You Vote, Rcaderf
The New York Sun, always fertile in
interesting problems, has propounded a
new ono for the people of thisc ountry in
relation to the terrible devastation in-
lictcd by the cruptions of Nosuvius.
pompci the city which was buried y
an eruption Of Nesuvius nearly nineteen
centuries ago, is one of the most price
less possessions Of mankind, says the Sun,
in laying down its proposition. The de-
struction OF every town around Nesuvius,
apart from any loss Of human life, would
be regarded throughout the civilized
world as disaster incomparably less
serious than the obliteration of Pompeii
as it exists today.
And then comes the problem. Suppose
a stream Of lava which would otherwise
overwhelm the remains of Pompeii and
bury them forever, could be avertcd by
the involuntary sacrifice of a single life
lot us say that Of an obscure mortally
diseased, disreputable, worthless person
inhabiting Tore dell Annunziata; and
suppose the question as to whether the
lava should swallow up Pompeii or this
single individual was to be decided by
secret ballot Of all the educated Christians
on earth. Would the majority of the
educated Christians Of the world, each
voting honestly his preference and know
ing that the character OF his vote would
never be disclosed, decree the destruction
OF what is left Of Pompeii or the extinction
Of this one worthless lie in Tore dell
Annunziata ?"
At first thought tho answer would be:
Let the one human life go and Pompei 3
priceless relics be saved. But then would
come reflection, followed by the most pro-
nounced disinclination to be in any man
nor responsible for the taking OF human
life, no matter what public benefits might
attend the execution. Next would come
hesitation, followed, doubtless, by the
unanimous verdict that Pompeii should
be sacrificed sooner than one Of us should
assume the responsibility of taking a
human life.
No doubt there arc many who, in the
face of such a stern condition, would will
lingly lay down their own lives for the
salvation Of Pompeii But to save Pom
pei at the price of murder would be
another matter.

The city of Philadelphia is now occu-
pied in a discussion ~ to where to place
the blame for failure TO prosecute the
rascals who, in the guiso of performing
contracts for public work, have robbed
the city Of millions of dollars.
The crusade was precipitated by Mayor
Weaver, who engaged James Gay Gordon
as his private counsel The latter pro-
cured a great mass of evidence against
the faithless contractors, but there have
been no prosecutions and no efforts TO
enforce restitution. Now, Mr.. Gordon
has severed his connection with the mayor
and proceedings are at a standstill.
The question under discussion is: Who
is TO blame for this situation The mayor
and Gordon, or District Attorney Bell ?
Well, the only thing to be said on this
point is that the people of Philadelphia
elect a district attorney to prosecute
offenders against the law If the city
has been plundered, and Mr.. Gordon an
able lawyer, has found evidence sufficient
20 warrant prosecution, why was it that
the district attorney failed to take
the steps that Mr.. Gordon has taken, and
procure the evidence that Mr. Gordon
claims Is have secured2
With a faithful and conscientious man
in the Office of district attorney there
should have been no occasion, no pretext
even, for Mayor Weaver securing private
counsel in the matter Of detecting public
thievery in Philadelphia and bringing
the offenders TO justice.
1t would seem therefore, that It is ii
order for District Attorney Bell to vim
dictate himself,
