It Is not a pleasant story that I am going to tell, bat It Is a truo sue, and I ttll It Because there Is a warning in It. When Arthur Wlnfleld secures! the position of station-agent and telegraph operator at the little station of Wned- vllle, In one of our Western States, very one who knew him was glad of It, and his friends a id he was starting out In a career that would bo a successful one. He wis amMtloas, energetic, prompt and attentive to business, and hla mental qualifications were un usually good. He had been the beet scholar at the village school, and had always showed a disposition to make the most of himself. Here was an opening fur him In the direction te which his likes and i awl (nation most strongly urged him, and those who knew him all agreed that If any boy weald be likely to succeed, that boy was Arthur Winfleld. The station was at ne side of the town, away from the business part of It, and It was not often, except at such times aa trains ware expected n, that the nboyV pollocted there But one afternoon sever! boys of the rougher class gathered In the waiting-room and fell to having what they called a "good time" there. Cigars and whisky were circulated freely, and soon some of the boys were so much under the influence of the lltjqer they bad taken that tkey became nggrraivs and nytaf them selves into Arthur's aftoe, which was partitioned eft from one eorner of the waiting-room. He pushed aside hi book as they came, and said, pleasantly : "Good-afternoon, boys." "Shake r said the leader of the Invading party, patting oat bis hand, 'You see, we fellers have beta di patin' 'bout yon. Some on 'em said you were stuck up let t big, yv know an' bettern us : an4 1 said I didn't b'v ve It, an' ul tbeea fellers -didn't ye, boys t An' they dared us in to ask yon out 8sJd yot wouldn't ceme, 'cause ye dida't think we was good 'noogh for ye to 'sociato with, an' n let o such trump ery. We know better, don't we, fellers 9 Come out go' gat 'qualnted. Good fellers, them, when ye got used to 'era. Kinder rough outside, but the right kind of m'leria! inside." Arthur healttted. He did not want to jo out among them. Neither did be want to have the Impression go out that be felt himself hotter tm they were. He know they ware net fit associates for blm, but they would not appreciate the reasons by which his decision was made on this score, and to refuse to maketheir ar quafctaoce wee to oflfcmd them and strengthen the belief that he frit "above them." So be accepted tholr Invitation, and went out of the office with bis visitors. In the waiting-room he was introduced in bluff, good-natured fashion, to the "other fellers," and, anxious to make friends with, be tried to adapt himself to their ways, and show tbem he did not feel him self "too gcod to 'soelate with 'em.'i "I my, cap, I guess wo were kind, er mistaken In ye," mid one of the young men. "S'posen we take a drink, hopln' for a better 'qualn tance." He draw a bottle, partly full of whisky, from hi pocket, a h spoke, and held it out te Arthur. "I thank you, but I do not drink," mid Arthur. "No ? Well, I didn't s'poee ye did, much, from the looks of ye," responded the other. "But this Is jest for the mke of friendship, ye know. Don't want to git ye drank, do we, feller ? hut It's cast' miry out here to drink with f itks when ye git qoaloted with 'em, an' 'twouldn't be treatlo' each other fair not to, would It beys f "Of course not," chorused all of the "boys." Arthur hesitated. He bad never drank liquor. He had boom taught to fear ft. He knew that he ought to my No, resolutely, and the words came to his lips Just as one -of the young men, who saw his hesitation, said, In an undertone, to hi companions-. "He's 'raid to drink." Arthur heard the whisper, snd the No he was about to utter was unspok en. Afraid ! Did they take him for a coward ? Was he afraid of one drink of liquor ? N t he ! He would show them that he wsf not to be dared, and he took the bottle and put it to bis hps, and swallowed the draught which brought life-long mis ery and remorse to bis soul. If ha bad been re illy brave he would have mid No,' and sank to it, for to de so he knew was right Ms Mil .mjJeVJ Banal ALBANY, OREGON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1882. And to no what we know is right ts always a proof of bravery, while to do what we know la not right, Is cowardice. Let others think as they will, tod Judge your actions ly what ever standard they nave mt up for themselves If you know the right, and are true to It, you are a here. Unaccustomed to liquor, the draught bo bad taken flew to bis bra I u rapidly, and In a few minutes hefhegan to tool Its bewildering ef fect A dick of the telegraph luatrument announced a message, aad he left he boys to sttead to it It was this s "stave the two o'clock train wslt there until a special panes" Thorn was a two o'clock train and ton o'clock train ; the two o'clock, a paasenger, the evening, one a freight. Bewildered by the liquor he had drank, be made a terrible mistake, and wrote down ion Instead of ,, thus making the massage apply to the night-freight, Instead ol the af terooea pasaengar-traln, which was near at band. When the whistle sounded, be want nut to the platform as usual, but be was so dared by the liquor thst the conductor and expreasvagent not Iced It, aad made the remark to each other that "young Wlnfleld seemed to be a si f drunk." "Any dispatch for me V as ed the conductor. "No, air," answered Arthur, while all the hissing of the engine' escap ing steam mom ad concentrated in bis brain. The train went en bearing Its frejf bf pf human jifg to n swift and terrible death. About two milos from Weodvllle, the rend swept around a curve. Both sldee of It were hidden from each other by a chilL At this carve the two trains met Suddenly the monsters of the Iron limb and breath q (ra cob fronted each other. Thorn was a wild, awfu eraeh, and beyond that death I Thirty men, women and children were killed In that disaster thirty souls sent, without a moment's warn log, into the other world I And It came about by Arthur Wlnleld's taking that one first drink of liquor that bad set bis brain on fire. The operator who mot the telegram declared that he bad made It two not ten o'clock, In IUa dispatch, Op orators oa the lino betwoon the point of Its transmission and its reception whom instruments were, nt that, time, connected with the main line, had heard the message go ever the wire, and they testified that it bad been sent correctly. The mistake bad boon made by Arthur Winftekf, It was clearly proved. He Is a young man, in years, but hie hair Is white, and there are Unas la bis tace that makes It the face ef aa u4 roan, Itogaorse Is always with him. He calls himself a murderer, and ha toils himself and all tboee who will listen to hla story, that all this misery came about because be waa not brave enough to my "No," sod refuse the first drink nf liquor. van nrrcsiRR si lt irr We clip the following, in reference to Butcher suicide, from the Benton loader. It gent to confirm our Idea, that he actually eommlttood the deed : He received a letter en Friday ev ening from the Clerk of Monroe school district, that the school which they had Intended for blm to teach, was given to another. Tbs school r. Butcher bad depended upon for financial help In in the coming trial. After Ibis news the first word then heard to escape his Hps, which point- ed to a suicidal mind, theee words were spoken to Mr. Lang worthy, of Curvallis, stating that he was tired of the world. Friday nlrht he went out to Mr. Lewi', where he had been working In the harvest field and res mrined over sight Sat'irday morning be started for Albany, via Soap Creek. He took dinner at Mrs. Vance's and remarked to Mrs. Vance, while In conversation about his trouble, that be bad about made up bis mind to kill himself. He went from there ever to Mr. Bialey's, and, In conversation with Mr. Risley. be stated several times that he thought of taking hla ewn life, and thought of drowning, and stated ho waa ted Mr. Ridley to walk with him a ways. He crossed the ferry at Albany about two o'clock p. u and started up the hill on the Albany side and when about half way up the hill, gaaed around over tho river, re turned picked up his satchel and want up town Children in Austria will hereafter be ol..ged to attend ssbool for eight years.

A lawsuit at Aadover, Vt, involves indirectly the right of a public schsol teaohei to read the Bible in school. Farmer Hazelton didn't want his chil dren to hear the Scriptures, and so th prudential committees arranged with them to have devotional exu-cises a fsw minutes before school opeuod each morning, attendance being optional with the pupils. Hazelton informed the committee of his intention to stop the religious exerclms entirely. With that end in view be instructed hi chil dren to attend them, and to get up and leave during the reading without the consent of the teacher. This was done, and the children were ex polled.

I once thought that 1 would never be guilty of using slang, hut I hsve found out by experience that it is aa ay to get in th habit of It as it i for Hoodlums to smoke cigsrettes. One might as wall attempt to make one hundred cents out of trad dollar to try to evsdo lb use of slang a hen surrounded by it It is all very well to tail of moral sum ins; but it is no sign ol a lack of will tor a dock to be drifted down stream when the current is too swift for it to stem. We can see thst there is considerable truth in this when we observe the number of really excellent people who pollute their lau guag with t hi bad habit. Now, there is good old Mrs. ay, a purer woman never lived; bqt in talking with bar five mjuutoa you might eonut at least a score of mixed expressions; and that warm blooded sou of hers, who is such favoitte of bis Saaday rknool teacher, generally give vent to slangy expraasion at a rate which oold discount th patter of the feat of a race hoc a. On would hard I v think thst Miss Fastidious eould so far forget herself m to say "you bet," yet it is fact, aad I have heard much more ob jectionable expressions ooze from be tween her lips. The truth is we are becoming so used to it that wo hardly notice it any more than we do the rain during he winter month. It ia just saturating ua through. We wish ws eould ssy that it stopped with th younger "fry," but, alas, it doosn't Gray hairs do not stop it -ty more than a locked door kep joy from the preset ve dish. We have some magnificent old people in A'bany, bat every last all of tbm, will embellish their language with crooked expres sions. n,teu our miaisters. our sutdea. are far fiosa exemplary in this respect, and to bear oar, or an pcraoo, any "yon net" in answer to a serious ques tion is, to sr It least" decidedly ridic ulous, much mwe so thn to hears tramp speak in refined language. Have yon ever thought why you taruiah your word with, s!ang, Be cause other laseulo around you dot You are going to lay it to association, Ss . . a , ors you. Well, 1 think to a certain extent, yon are right, aa I have already intimated, but when yon come to th bottom fact nd face the truth you will find that this habit sttacbes itself te many because their vocabuUry of good, expressive fingliah words, is so terribly small that they cannot make themselves understood without resort ing to it It Is just the same with wwe w n a sweanug. wnen i near man send ing forth a Willawstts river of oaths I always my it is because he haa only a' Senium Ditch dictionary ia his brain. It is a difficult tbing to make soms people believe that slang is st least a first cour in ol swearing. In fact you cannot do it They consider them selves virtuous, and while they look with abhorrence upon the Ukiug of the Cieator'a name in vain, and very Cotrectly too, they will e'efile their tonga with exressions which com very close to the blue tint. You know this to be a (act Kou can't squirm around it because you do it yourself. Th only wsy is to sdmit that you are wrong, and reform yourself. It is in this as it is in drinking. Tsking beer leads to whisky. As eemNtred to each ether your slang is about the earns aa the beer; it is sure to grow on you, and If you srs young and of the sterner sex tea to one the first thing you know it will just naturally slip off into an oath. If w pretend to be above the latter we ought to be ashsmod of ourselves very time we give vent to a slangy ex pression, and for my part I am. I have said tbat it is almost impossi ble for a pron to keep out of the htbit when completely surrounded by it The thing for ns to do is to break down the surroundings, and by work ing together improve ourselves if noth ing more. The using of slang ia not refined, it is not gentlemanly nor lady like; if it was it would be taught in our schools, our Sunday school teachers would encourage it, our publio speak era would resort to it and you wonld hear it in the pulpit and in the school room. I believe you will admit that it is wronir snd will consent to olace it w among the bad habits which need re forming. Our social life ia th best part of ua, and we ought to be aa par- tirtiiiar in it as in our business habits. Tho English education Department has just published a circular in which it lay down th principle in instruc tion in English thst ss a general rule, but especially in the lower stan dards, the examiner should be careful rather to ask for tho meaning of abort sentences and phrases than to require explanations of single words by deSni tions or synonyms.
