A kind lady in Lewiston had a rare
pleasure the Other day. Finding by chance
girl of fifteen years, cripple from birth, who
had never seen any portion of the city, ex-
cent the little visible from the window Of her
humble home, she took her in her sleigh and
gave her an hours ride. 1t was the poor
GIRLS first introduction to the world, and
everything was new and strange. The Falls
excited her enthusiastic admiration, and the
crowds of sleighs and people on the streets
seemey to her like fairy creation.

A PHILADELPHIA VESSEL THE OLDEST
ALoAT.-The Truelove is the name OF the
name of the oldest vessel now afioat. She
was built in Philadelphia in 1894, and is con-
sequently LOG years old. The vessel was built
originally for the merchant trade, but during
the Revolution was used as privateer She
was captured by British war vessel in 1850,
and was purchased from the British govern
ment by parties in Hull, England, from which
port she now halls. She was employed in the
wine trade between Oporto and Hull until
1884, when she was employed in whaling. As
a whaler she has been exposed to many vicisi-
tudes. The Truelove in 1880, formed part OF
a fleet in Melville Bay, when twenty strong
vessels were almost lost and twelve Others
other were seriously injured by the ice. This
vessel, on account of her peculiar build, was
able to stand the ice much better than some
other and larger ones. When exposed to a
heavy squeeze between large masses oil ice
she would be raised to the surface, where sne
would remain until the pressure was reIleveu,
when she would again sink mo tne ma.e..
On one occasion this vessel lay on the icein IniS
manner for six weeks in MevIhe Day. lhe
Truelove has made eighty voyages 10 0reen-
land and Davis Strait. During all the time
that She has been engaged as whaler, she
has carried oil from some three or four hund-
rod wbalers, and besides this has been laden
with seals and other Arctic products. Since
1861 she has been employed in carrying ice
from Norway to the English market. She is
said to be as good as condition now as ever,
and is still hard at work.

A Terrible Sccnc-A Train Over a Thirty
Feet Embankment.

The accident to the Montreal express train
Saturday morning, at Putney, Vt, was the
most serious that ever occurred on the road
A passenger car, with fourteen passengers,
went through the bridge and dropped forty
feet to the water, which was some ten feet
deep, and filled with floating ice. The engine
passed the bridge and jumped from the track
down an embankment, the tender and bag
gage car going off on the other side, where
they took fire, and with the baggage were de-
stroyed. Eye witnesses describe the scene as
fearful, and the escape of the passengers as
almost miraculous. The car was almost SUBJ
merged, only the roof being visible, and to the
fact of the roof being torn off at one end, most
OF the passengers owe their escape, though
some got out through the windows.
A Frenchman and his wife, with child, a
few months old were among the passengers.
AT the time OF the accident the mother was
holding the little fellow wrapped in shawls
and pinned up into a bundle, in her arms, but
during the frightful fall lost her hold of 1t.
As the water rushed into the car the child
floated out and was rescued unframed by the
engineer. All of the passengers escaped, and
none sustained very serious injuries or broken
bones, although one or two were badly bruis-
ed and cut by the broken glass. Several had
their clothing almost entirely stripped of, and
all lost such valuablcs, watches, ETC., as they
had ON their persons. The baggage and
smoking cars, with all the baggage, were en-
tirely burned up.

The Trials of a Theatrical Manager.

A young author, fired with ambition to

manuscripts to the manager Of a well
known theatre. This manager was
good.natured gentleman, who did not like
to be too hard on tho unfortunate authors
whose worke he could not accept, so ho
always returned this particular young
gentleman's productions, with the assur-
anco that they really were not bad, but
that the subject was perhaps not quite 50

that the dialogue was scarcely telling
enough. At last the ambitious youth bo-
came suspicious that his plays were never

white paper and tied with red silk rib

each other In silence, with the full length Of the
room between US. The movement she had made

which she was capable. All use OF every other
faculty, bodily or mental, seemed to be merged

The sound Of my voice brought the life back 10
