From the N. Y. Evening Post.l
A mere girl;
One coarse curl
Falling on her shoulder;
Pale her cheek,
Her lips weak,
But her eyes were bolder.s
She no saint
Glaring paint
Daubed on every feature;
Gaudy dress
All could guess
A poor fallen creature. -
For no good
There she stood,
No one passing near her;
Space kept wide;
Dress aside,
Women seemed to fear her.
Carriage crashed,
Horses dashed,
There was wild confusion;
People cried,
Terrified
At the mad intrusion.
Mid the crowd,
Shrieking loud
In voice of terror,
A mother wild,
A little child,
Lost by some strange error.
All! twas there!
It's head bare,
Mid those whirling forces,
In the street,
Meath the feet
OF the maddened horses.
Though all heard,
No one stirred
Death would be.the winner!
One brave eye;
One sharp cry;
Twas the painted sinner!
Quicker then
Than the pen
COulQ TELL OF nail the DANGER,
She risked her life,
Mid that strife,
To save little stranger.
And I thought,
As l caught
A glimpse Of her pale features,
Mid the stains
Still remains
Some coed in those creatures;
And that we
Should not be
80 earger aye to shun them,
If we can
Greet the man
Whose wrong hath undone them

Re Yearned to be q Reporter.


he came up the four pair of
stairs Saturday morning, and as
soon as he had recovered his
breath he wanted to know if The
Free Press would like to engage
anotherreporter. Ke said he hadn't
had much experience, but he
said it in tone which was meant
to convey the idea that he knew
his business. He was tall and
thin, had on a plug hat which
looked as if it had been run over
by a drove of mules, his collar
had sweat through and his
bandana handkerchief was re-
markable for the many crew. sses
in it. His boots were red with
old age, and his pants were stuffed
into the tops. Nevertheless, his
face was one to command atten-
ton and his tones were respect
full. In reply he was told that
there was always room at the top
of the profession, just as Daniel
Webster told a young lawyer
once upon a time. He said he
thought four stories high was
about as near the top Of the pro-
fession as fellow could get, but
his joke was too old to laugh at.
He didn't want much pay, his
object being to identify himself
with some growing journal and
let the tleeting years bring him
wealth and laurels. He was
but nineteen years old and he had
plenty of time. He said he could
sit up three nights running,
ingratiate himself into the affec-
tions, of the police in one brief
hour, and he knew the fremen
and the captains Of the ferry boats
would love him on sight. He
could report any thing he said,
from a dog fight to regatta, and
he wrote tightening hand. He
was used to religious meetings,
knew all about medical Conven-
tions, and would 60 for woman
suffrage or became a Granger,
just as the paper desired. He
preferred, he said, to work all
day and night, but if the Office
had a rule requiring q man to
sleep three or four hours ont of the
twenty-four he would obey.
He promised much more, and
his tones grew more serious as he
talked. He was being consumed
by a burning ambition to weld a
lead pencil, and ice-water had no
effecton him. He was "up" in
grammar, posted on the poets, and
as for history, he could repeat
every important event from the
hour the boy stood on the burning
deck down to Eli Perkins fight

Unbeloved.
BY GERALD MASSEY

Like tree beside the river 81
Other life that runs from me,
Do lean me, murmnring ever
In my love s idOlatry.
And reach out hands of blessing,
And stretch ont hand OF prayer,
And, with passionate caressing,
Waste my life upon the air.
In my ears the syren river
Sings and smiles up in my face,
But forever and forever
Runs from my embrace. al0
Spring by spring the branches daily
Clothe themselves in tender flower;
And for her sweet sake as truly
All their fruit and fragrance shower;
But the stream with careless laughter,
Runs in merry beauty by,
And it leaves me, yearning after,
Lorn to weep, and lorn to die.
In my ears the syren river
Sings, and smiles upin my face;
But forever and forever
Runs from my embrace.
