A RAILROAD DISASTER.
The "Weat Bond Passenger Train Badly
-' -. pcmoraliud.
.". Train No. 1, west bound passenger from
here, met'with an accident near Cates'
mill that just escaped being a very dis
astrous one. It was almost a miracle
that a large number of people were not
killed ' instead of being shook up as
proved to be the case. The train was
in charge of Conductor E. B. Cowman,
with Mr. Curtis as engineer. The loco
motive was one of the heavy eight-wheel
sixty-ton machines and it was its heavy
weight on the short curves that caused
the accident. As the train was nearing
Cates' mill the forward wheels of the
engine left the track on a curve, causing
a spreading of the rails: ' The baggage
car followed and toppled over on' top of
a short bridge and the tourist car fol
lowed and likewise went over on its side.
Next came the first-class chair car and
plunged into it badly demoralizing the
tourist car. The front car contained a
large number of Italian emigrants and
among them mostly was the damage
done. Some, seven were badly but pot
dangerously hurt, while quite a number
were - more or less wounded and
cut by falling glass' and being bumped
against chair backs, but as far as heard
from no one was killed.
Quite a number of railroad men were
aboard and were badly shook up .but not
seriously injured. In the tourist car a
lady and little girl were in the front end
and when the crash came were covered
with flying glass and other articles. For
a few moments it looked as if they both
must be killed, but when they were re
moved from the debris it was' found
their injuries were not severe and they
both walked back to the sleeper where
they were cared for by the kind people
on board. There were . many . narrow
escapes and it is extremely fortunate
that fire did not break out and burn up
more or less of the train.
The accident occurred about 2 p. ni.
yesterday. Dr. Doane of this city im
mediately went to the sufferers. A re
lief train from Portland, Dr. Beaevn in
charge, and assisted by Dr. Logan of this
place who was in Portland at the time,
came up at once arriving at the scene of
the wreck about 5 o'clock. The injured
were taken to the hospitals of Portland
where they will have the best of care.
The wreck was got out of the way and
the track cleared about 12 o'clock last
night and trains are moving all right to
day." ..-..
Cates' mill where the accident occurred
is about 45 miles west of The Dalles, and
is between Wyeth's Station and the
Cascades.
Conductor Cowman had one of his
hands badly cut by the falling glass, but
considered himself fortunate in escaping
so well. , - . '
The accident seems to have been caus
ed by the excessive length and weight
of the engine, which was too long for
the abrupt curves on the road, making
it very easy to spread the rails. The
train was a heavy one, moving twelve cars
in it. It would seem as if the path of
safety lies in smaller engines and lighter
trains.

Thoughts oi Wash In a; ton and Lincoln.
The fact that those who have lived
before us have,, in the face of poverty and
discouragements, striven and worked and
won praises and encomium from their
fellow-men. is cause for encouragement
to everyone who is just at the threshold
of life. :-
This month, though the shortest in
the;year, brings the birthdays pf two
men whose lives' have had w'tpre influence
in the history of our country than others,
that of George Washington and Abraham
Lincoln. George made good use of his'
school opportunities when a boy. He
was industrious, accurate and obedient.
; Had it not been for this latter trait in
his character we might never have had
him to lead our armies in the war for
our country's freedom. He obeyed his
mother and did not go into the British
navy.- - '
Washington was born itito the best
society the country afforded at that early
period and his life was worthy of his
birth. Lincoln's early life in the beech
woods of Indiana was very different.
His thirst for knowledge as a means of
rising in the world was innate in him.
His studies were his delight.
Do you know when Lincoln's birthday
comes? , The twelfth of February; he
was just as true and brave a boy as
Washington was, and loved his mother
just as devotedly. He had no rich and
influential friends as Washington had ;
his home in Kentucky was a very poor
one, but even as a child he showed those
traits which won for him, as a man, the
title of "Honest Abe." I wish you
would all read the story of his boyhood,
and see what a true, loving, noble fellow
he was. I can never read the story . of
his mother's death and his walking' so
many weary mile afterward to have a
minister come and preach the funeral
sermon, without crying.
Do . you know that the first speech
Lincoln ever made was a temperance
address? It was, and a . grand oriev
Next week we will give you parts of it.
He never would drink even winej nor
have it in his house. When he was
nominated for president and a committee'
of great men were coming to his house
in Springfield to notify him of it, his
friends thought it would not be polite for
him not to have any wine to offer -the
committee, so1 they bought some ' and
brought it to the house. But Lincoln
would not touch it ; he thanked his
friendfe for their kindness, but sent for
pure, cold water, in which he drank to.

What tbe Children Should be Taught.
Me. Editor : Our wise Miss Willard,
with her usual "prudent forecast . and
judicious planning has urged a school
house on every hill top and a national
flag on every school-house. '
Why? That the questioning minds of
childhood may learn the value of Ameri
can institutions and the great principles
that insure their perpetuity. Believing
it the duty of our American schools to
instruct our youth in the grand and
broad truth of our national constitution,
"That all men are created equal; that
they are endowed by their Creator with
certain inalienable rights ; that among
them are life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness."
That in each little heart should be
rooted the great thoughts of our noblest
statesman, "That if we would preserve
the anion the people must be educated,
not simply in reading, writing and
arithmetic, but in American politics
and economy and in that higher thought
that American laws and institutions rest
on God's laws and their careful observ
ance." ' ...';'
They must be taught the freedom
symbolized by the national flag, is hot
license to practice selfishness, lawless
ness, anarchy, socialism and vice but on
the contrary frugality, industry, patriot
ism and virtue.
That every child should prepare him
self for any position of trust in the gift of
the nation and an intelligent use of all
the privileges of a citizen of America.
The local W. C. T. U. is thinking of
securing a flag for our public schools
some time in the near future for we de
sire our little ones to take rank with the
foremost of the nation in patriotism, in
telligence and virtue. " " .

Nobody's Business.
"It's nobody's business . but mine ; I
hurt no one but myself,'' said one Alfred
Dana, when . reproved for intemperate
habits. -
- Was it nobody's business? What -of
the lad of fourteen employed in the
same store, who began to smoke cigars
just because "Alf. Dana did,'.' and a few
months later drank his first glass 'of
liquor at the request of the same friend?
Was it nobody's business when this lad
continued to accept the proffered drinks,
until an insatiable thirst fastened upon
him, and bound him in the destroyer's
grasp? Alfred had been . strong but he
is weak. Was it nob idy'a business that
at twenty -five this same young man died
a sad death, with drink the cause of it ;
and his mother, an accomplished and
lovely woman, was bending in awful
agony of soul above the pale dead face?
Was no one hurt but Alfred Dana?
It is true of liquor drinking that it
loves company. Therein lies its great

'with its appointments for sociability.
There is not a drinker moderate or im
moderate, but has an influence in lead
ing some other soul toward destruction.

business." Royal Rood.
