A Needed Resolution.

Rev William r. Huntington of
New York said recently that it was
more dangerous TO be a railway brake
man than to be a murderer, and proved
his assertion with statistics showing that
one murderer in seyenty-three was
hanged, whereas one brakeman in thirty
was killed.
Discussing this startling fact the 9TH
er day, DIR. Huntington said that the
widespread spirit of selfshness was no
doubt responsible.
I'VE incline" he said, ito put our
selves too far ahead of other people. We
could all make no better New Year
resolution than to be less selfish. AS it is,
we are too much like the art student.
There was, you know, poor Yer
mont art student who shared a studio
bedroom with a journalist from Wiscon-
sin.
The Vermonter went out one morning
to do the marketing, and brought home
two chops He laid them on the table
ana the cat leaped up and devoured one
Hang it, he said to his Wisconsin
friend, the cat has eaten your chop -

Mr.. III. l.. Watkins, who has
been in charge of Garter Halr'
since its purchase by Mr.. Eben
Richards. and who has made many
friends in Clarke, sends the Cou-
RIER the following:
Urgent business makes it neces-
sary that | leave the neigh
borhood without having an oppor-
tunity of saying goodbye toanyone,
consequently | have to take this
means for so doing. 1t is with
many regrets that my business de-
mands that | move to another por-
tIon of the State, for ] have formed
a friendship for Clarke and many
of its good people which will last
me all though life. | wish to eX-
press my appreciation of the many
acts of kindness shown me while
here, and at the same time state
that notwithstanding the fact that
| have lived in a number of places
in various States, i have never
moved from one of them with as
many regrets as | have at leaving
here"
We feel sure that the CoURIEB
will voice the sentiment of every
one of Mr.. Watkins friends when
we say that the regret is mutual.
and express the hope that his path
through life may lead through
pleasant places.
