sEDATIvE INFLUENCE OF THE SCANDAL ON Or
AN sTRBPERoUs FEMALE.

AN sTRBPERoUs FEMALE
Friday evening n woman about thirty years
old was arrested in the Western district for
disturbing the peace, and the event almost dis
tricted her,although she had seen the inside of
Il cell before. She began bowling and weeping
as soon as she was locked up, and Bijah, the
lhnltor OF the Ninth avenue station, felt his
heart getting tender. He offered her harvest
apple, but she merely stopped long enough to
see what 1T was, and then went on crying QUIT
II am dying. know am"
lie bcsought her to live for the sake Of her
husband, who is away on the lakes, but she
said she would be cold in death before NOR
ming If not set at liberty. He showed her the
almanac and tried to induce her to peruse it
and settle her mind, but she tried to pull his
hair through the bars and raised her voice un-
til 1t could be heard two blocks away. He be-
gan reading the almanac out loud but she
crowned his voice and he had to give it up
Then he went ont and bought some peppermint
drops and handed to her, saying that it was a
burning shame to arrest lady like her for
merely hitting another woman on the ear with
q shovel. She was quiet for a few minutes and
then broke out again, and the roof of the sta
ton seemed to be raising up. Bijah offered
her pound OF gum drops, a new bonnet a
black silk dress, house and lot and $50 900 in
bonds if she would only quiet but she danced
up and down and yelled:
"Lemme eout or | shall di-ah'
He locked all the doors and sat down on the
front steps to exaust herself, but after an hour
and ten minutes, there being no cessation, he
ran in with an AZ on his shoulder and threat
ened to cut her head right of if she didn't
stop.
Il WON'T wont! WON'T" she shouted, dan
cling up and down, and taking fesh start He
drummed on the coal scuttle TO drown her voice
but the voice drowned the scuttle. He put
the hose on the pen stock and dthreatenedto
drown her. but she shut her eyes and pitched
her voice on n new key. The old man was in
despair. The men up stairs couldn't sleep, and
the people out OF doors thought a panther had
been Gagged. As the officer rubbed his bald
head and looked around his eye lighted on an
old paper, and his smile extended from ear to
ear. He carried it in, turned up the gas and
shouted
Have you read the Beecher scandal YETI"
Read what!' she exclaimed. suddenly cea-
sing to scream.
'"Ihe Beecher-Tilton matter" he continued

about"
Nowhere is itS' she asked, and he passed..
III the paper. telling her that il she would ID
good he'd hunt up the rest of the statement
IN another paper. and from that moment until
daylight the women never uttered word, ex-
cept once when she asked if there weren't
seven on eight more papers with statements
in.

Carl Rosa and PArepa, ,antipodal as they were

DIFFERENT MINDS,

Some murmur when their sky is clear
And wholly brought to view.
Ii one small speck of dark appear.
In their great heaven of blue,
And some with thankful love are filed.

Ono ray Of Gods coed mercy gild
The darkness of their night.
In palaces are hearts that ask,
In discontent and pride,
Why life Is such q weaS task,
And all good things denied;
And hearts. in poorest huts admire.
How love has. in their aid
tLove that not even seems to tire)
