Mother Dies

The fate of man resembles the fate
of nature; it is similarly dependent on
natural laws and obeys, without ex-
ception, the same stringent and mex
orable necessity which governs all that
exists. It lies in the nature of every
living thing to die. No n has ever
escaped that law. Death is the surest
calculation that can be made. It is the
keystone to every individual existence
-. !. The natural laws are rude, unbend-
ing powers that have neither morals
nor heart -. where the thunderbolt is
attracted there it will strike. The path
of the cyclone is strewn with the dead
and the dying. The remorseless earth
quake blots out the lives of thousands.
Other thousands perish through fire
or flood-regardless of supplications to
the unknown to stay the hand of death.
Birth, change and decay follows each
other in such rapid succession that we
have scarce time to look about us before
We are dropped into eternity -. . the
inevitable end that awaits every pioneer

Havre old-timer who claims to have
been in this country before Lewis and
Clark has to do with the origin OF the
Little Rocky mountains.
His explanation of what has hereto
fore been presumed a geological up
heaval, is as follows:
When engaged in ranching in north
ern Montana during the early days, his
creek on the Missouri and his stable
and corrals on Milk river where Malta
Is now located. During a winter OF
heavy snow while going to the stable
one morning before breakfast he In
advertently got off the trail, stepped
into a pile of gravel and got a rock IN
boot, removed the stone and tossed it
to one side. While returning from the
stable 20 minutes later, after having
cared for his stock, the same thing hap
pened again.
Not wishing to break a new trail in
the deep snow, he followed the path he
had made three times daily during the
winter and almost every time he made
the trip picked up a rock in his boot.
He kept removing them and tossing
them aside, and when the snow went
off in the spring there were the Little
Rockies blocking his trail. After that
he just jumped over them going to and
from the barn and from then on was
bothered neither by the deep snow nor
stone bruises on his feet.
If you can beat that one you are
eligible to enter. There is no entry fee.

The debt that the world owes to
the great preacher, who left

SETTLED TODAY
Jerome Opas Met Death in
Fall on Stairway Of

Attorneys announced today that

No announcement OF disclosure Of
the amount involved IN the settle

The suit was entered by the

according to allegations died i'm.
mediately after sustaining q fall,
caused by faulty stairs at property
at sos Bank street, which Is owned
by the defendant company. 1t Is al

friends at 006 Bank street, In des-
cending the front stairs fell, frac-

from the stairs, according to the
claim, and this dangerous condition
caused the man to fall. Attorney

Economic Aspect of Drinking

upon her for the service and the
help that q wife and mother should
give. Every economic loss through
drink is to some degree q moral
and social loss as well.
There has been an aged-old de-
bate between those who say that
drink causes poverty. and those who
contend that poverty causes drink.
Both claims are true.
The writer Of Proverbs observed
long ago that both the drunkard
and the glutton are In the way Of
poverty; that q man who is lazy and
incompetent, of weak and bad hab-
It's, will reap the result OF this In
eniciency. The writer Of Proverbs
put It very pointedly. "Drowsiness
will clothe o man with rags"
Over against this lazy. inefficient.

Ing type Of humanity Is the type OF
the faithful servant, whose faith
fulness does not depend upon the
presence or absence Of his master,
but who Is inherently loyal and true
I In the performance Of his task.

Of man who seeks stimulation and
intoxication through indulgence In
that which Tobs him Of his will and
sanity Is the man who finds the
deeper satisfactions In the more
abundant life that Jesus gives.

In 1885, this city had IS less acc!-
dents, six less persons killed and 81
less persons injured than IN 1885.
Last years totals were COL accidents.
~ persons killed, 40 persons In
jured. The totals for 1885 were 64e
accidents, 20 killed, and SIG injured.
DanbuTy Second
The figures include all accidents
reported TO the state department OF
motor vehicles. Danbury ranked
next 70 Waterbury In accident re-
duction, having n less accidents IN
1895 than In 1895. Third honors
went to Rockville, with Is less &C
cidents than In the previous year.
While this city's accident total
was being lowered, accidents In
creased In number in the other large
cities Of the state. Hartford, New
Haven, Bridgeport, New Britain and
Stamford all had more accidents
last year than the year before.
During 1896 an active safety CAM
paign was carried on here by the
Waterbury Citizens Traflc Safety
Committee. The committee Is now
q permanent organization.
The twenty-one incorporated mu-
inequalities Of Connecticut play an
important part in the statewide
traffic accident problem. Tabulation
Of the role palyed by these cities IN
1895 shows that well over nifty (S0)
per cent Of the trafilc accident total
for the state Is charged against
these communities which, presuul-
