ATTACKED DY SMALL Pox, sHE Is LEFT TO DIE, WITH
NO COMPANION But A PARALYTIC MOTHER.
A case of singular hardship and suffering has
recently been brought to light in one OF Chi
cago's most beautiful suburbs. A young lady,
whose name is suppressed through feelings Of
delicacy was supporting herself and aged
mother by teaching music.
Going to the house of pupil in this city about
noon on day some three weeks ago, she either
failed to notice or heed smallpox warning on
tho building. Entering the house without
knocking, as her custom was she met a rather
gaudily dressed strange lady, who remarked to
her, This is no place for you" On asking why,
She was informed that there was q case Of small
poX in the house.
She felt sudden fantness and hastily left the
place In about two weeks the dreadful malady
struck her down.
Her mother being paralytic and never hav-
ing had the disease was afraid and unable to
minister to her wants, and she was neglected by
the neighbors for the same reason.
Her physician, being from the city, was not
IN the habit of visiting her every day, and the
mother WAS at times 80 paralytic that she could
not leave her chair or bed without assistance
The young lady, thus neglected, grew rapidly
worse, and one afternoon, her mother, not be-
ing able to move sitting with her back to the
sick chamber, heard the death gurgle of her
daughter.
She was unable to summon attendance, and
sat there alone with the dead during the long
night. She knew her daughter was dead but
was even unable to turn in her chair. And
when the neighbor found out the state Of affairs
the next day, grief had made the old lady deaf
more distressing case could not we'll be CON
cieved Of and 1t is reproach to the Intelligence
and humanity OF any neighborhood that would
allow such state Of affairs exist. Had the
young lady been promptly removed to the quar-
antine. she would doubtless now be alive and her
aged mother would have been spared from such
terrible mental suffering. -CistcdJo Tribune,

The Eating House Man.

When the train draws up at Stamford,
five minutes for refreshments, says the
Danbury MetOs, it Is easy to distinguish
the experienced traveller from the rest.
He has already got out on the platform,
and is either on tho bottom step, or
close enough to it. Just rs soon Us the
speed OF the train becomes less than he
can make, he springs OF, and dashes
madly for the saloon door, through 1t,
and up to the counter, giving his order
for coffee while moving, and snatching
up the right article the first time. He
knows Just how much time is required
to make five minutes, and when II is ex.
pired he Is out on the platform picking
his teeth, and talking about real estate,
Alas for the inexperienced traveller,
such is not his record. He is inside
the car when it stops, with twenty por-
sons ahead OF him. He jumps down on
the platform in time to see the mass
surgfng into the door, and then it sud.
denly strikes him that he may be too
late, and under this inspiration he
throws himself into the struggling gang.
He doesn't reach the table. He and
the other inexperienced travellers form
the outside line, and shout their orders
through the openings, and receive what
is handed them with thankfulness and
what dexterity they can muster. Such
a man will perspire and choke, and paw,
and jaw during the entire FIVE minutes,
and in that time may get down two
thirds Of q sandwich, one.third Of II
piece of custard pie, and more or less
Df coffee, and then get out OF the door
Just in time to catch hold OF the car
rail, and be pulled on by the brakeman.
And when he Inns reached his seat and
is scraping the rest Of that pic from his
boot, ind drawing cold mir into his
tlirOat to allay the pain Of the scald, he
will think upthings about the keeper OF
that restaurant that would make the
hair on q saw.horSe stand straight on

A Woman slays a Panther.

A Butchcrs, Match.

The most extraordinary match of tho
season was witnessed In Hoboken. N.
J., between Timothy o'Keete and Pat
rick Fitzgerald. The contestants were
butchers, and their relative merits for
skill aud expedition were to be decided
by the result Of sheep killing match.
At 3:l4 p. N. tho words one, two, three,
were given, Fitzgerald and o'Keefe
each seized sheep, whose throat had
already been cut by the attendants, and
began their manipulations. First there
was some work on the floor, which the
butchers call logging. because the cut
ting OF the skin on the legs is the prin.
cipal feature. The floor work compile
ted, the sleeps hind legs are tied
together, and II is hung on convenient
hook.
Fitzgerald hung up his fiitieth sheep
in two hours aud twCnty.seven minutes,
making an average Of two minutes and
forty seconds for each sheep. His OPP
ponent was eleven minutes behind, hav-
ing cut himself badly twice.

Working on n llnncho.

A young man WHO went West thus
reveals some of his unsatisfactory ex-
periences, in note to the editor of tue
Denver (Col.) Ncws: "Being out Of
workout not loafing-I thought l
would try the lnucho business, 80 /
walked four or Ave miles ont on the
Platte, and found rancho where there
are employed from twenty to twenty
five hands Mt 81 per day. Now, Mr..
Editor, I shall tell you facts-nothing
more-so here it goes. You are obliged
to get mp at 4 o'clock; get breakfast.
However, during bug time-potato
bugs-you get up ut 8 o'clock and
shake Paris green until breakfast-6
o'clock. You work until II o'clock and
get dinner-half hour incoming. Then
work until @ o'clock-supper--and, as
soon MS You swallow your supper, work
until 0 or 10o'clock tieing up vegetables
for market. All this for 81 day. Sun
days one-fourtll Of n day is allowed you
-25 cents-to work from 8 o'clock in
the afternoon to 0 o'clock at night.
Now, is this not enough to sicken a
poor mans hearth The food is enough,
but poor-no milk or butter allowed on
the table, and you sleep like hogs, in
an old barn and stable, full Of graybackf
and bedbugs. I like TO work, but was
obliged to give up. 1 hope some good
and kind.hearted ranchman will giyt
me work and home where / will mo-
have to work sixteen out Of the twenty
four hours for 81 per day"

In Deep, Cold Water.

We believe it is well.established
fact, says the Gold Hill Nctcs, that
tho bodies Of persons drowned in Lake
Tahoe have never been recovered, the
clear, cold waters OF the lake absolutely
refusing to give up their dead. This
circumstance, which at first thoughti
appears strange, is accounted for upon
the hypothesis that the waters at the
bottom OF the lake are so icy cold as
actually TO arrest decomposition and
consequent expansion Of dead body,
one Of the conditions under which
II would be exected TO return TO the
surface. Whether tho victims who
repose at the bottom OF the pei
lucid waters Of this iar.iamed lake tln.
dergo petrifaction, or are transformed
into mermen and mermaidS, is secret
which will never be known until they
come 10 the surface at the summons OF
GabriCl's trumpet. When the Sen Bird
was lost IN Lake Michigan in three hum
dred feet OF water two bodies oukot one
hundred lost only were rescued. When
Tie Lady Elgin was lost in eighty.siI
feet OF water only a few miles from the
frst disaster, every body out Of fouI
hundred and over was finally rescued.
