PAST ALL DISM0NOR, "

A combination of circumstances led
me become frequent passenger, in the
sumner of IS, on steamboat leav-
ing the wharves of New York, whose
destination was Boston. A person who
has been fortunate enough to make this
journey in favorable weather, need not
be told that the trip is delightful par
ticularly SO if it be made in one of
those floating palaces" belonging to
the ''Fall River Line.''
On one of these occasions, just before
the boat started, q pretty girl, of per-
haps II or l8, stepped aboard, inquired
for the Steward, and secured state
room, saying she was going through to
Boston. Her manner was easy and
self.possessed; yet a certain
audacious sauciness in her splendid
brown eyes, the jaunty way in
which she wore her Turkish hat, her
independent air, and nameless sugges-
tion of mischief which appeared to lurk
In every movement, arrested the OBJ
servers attention, and seemed to indi-
cate that she was proficient beyond her
ears in the worlds knowledge; that
er tutelage, to say the least, had par.
taken more of lenience than Of prudence.
Her dress was rich, and exquisitely be-
coming, but no attempt at conspicuous
ornament. Her hair was Of the same
rich brown color as her eyes, and fell
down to her waist, resting as lovely on
her fair young shoulders as if each sep
arate hair were endowed with electric
life.
From the moment the vessel started
she was the target Of universal atten-
tion. The ladies eyed. her very mar
rowly, and criticised her dress and man.
ner with that merciless severity known
only to the gentler sex. The gentle
men cast sly glances Of admiration from
beneath their hats and behind their
newspapers; and the gravest If them
looked more amiable at the sight. of her
bright eyes and childish countenance.
AS we swept out into the Sound, she
came on deck, where most of the gentle
men and several ladies were congregat-
ed, and directed fusillade Of small
conversation At the captain, addressing
nun IN tone of reckless levity, and
with familiarity which startled the
LADIES' and amused the gentlemen and
otherwise conducting herself in man.
ner which left no doubt as to her social
status. In less than ten minutes, every
LADY on board was her avowed enemy.
and not at all afraid to let it be known

way, regardless of smiles or frowns. m.

The Ghost i'm Hamlet.

The ghost of the elder Hamlet in
marble-this is the audacious work of
Thomas R. Gould, the Boston sculptor,
and the Advertiser thus wildly de-
scribes it
It is called-or rather we should say
it is-the "Ghost in Hamlet and it
consists Of a head, bearded, helmeted
and plumed, chiselled in high relief on
a sunk oval set into a square. To rep.
resent spirit in marble-the idea
seems at first preposterous. And if
one could stop to analyzc his impress
sions Of this ghost, the first would
probably be one Of quick appreciation
of the artistic instinct which suggested
the form Of Mr.. Gould's work, form
which, when thus suggested, the mind
At once perceives to be the only one
possible to the sculptor's success with
such subject.
But such = thought will come, if at
all, late and not early. The first feeling
will be 4 mixture Of awe and wonder.
Here is shadow in marble, yet dis
tinct personality Of keen and varied e.
preston. 1t is spirit striving to be-
come IN apparition and showing the
strain of the endeayor. The eyes not
only transfix the attention-terrible,
far-away eyes, which have looked upon
the unutterable secrets of the ''prison-
house. of souls; eyes full of the name
less anguish of expiation, yet terrible
in their demand for Vengeance upon the
living. .
As one looks longer the piteousnes
of the whole expression. grows, especi.
ely again in the wonderful eyes; the
oountenance, grim and ''perturbed." as
it is, is seen to be 'tmore in sorrow than
in anger,'' and even the dread frowu
seems tempered by the love and longing
which led the father to seek his onlV
son. In every line and aspect the head
is most majestic and kingly, and by
some subtle skill, the effect Of paleness,
IS required by the text of Shakespeare,
seems to be impaired to the wasted
cheeks. Viewed from different points
these various expressions become by
turns conspicuous. -

face is more grievous and wasted, be-

Four little pictures, that was all,

To me lonely woman still
Who would have been his wife.
Out of his mothers feeble hand
Itook them one BY one,

Told by the faithful sun.
''This one'-she rubbed it with her
My eyes can scarcely see,
'Twas taken when he was boy,
"A dear good boy to mer'
A round and rosy little face.
With awkward, frightened stare,
And sturdy, nervouSschool boy hand,
Clutched tightly on chair.
And this was in his college days,
When he went courting you"

And near the picture drew.

The careless wind tossed hair,
The very knotting of the tie
loved to see him wear.
When browner shone these locks of

When life no dim December knew,
Only the merry May
I laid it with silent sigh,
Softly upon her knee,
Remembering how my stubborn pride
Had parted him from me.
How bitter pain had followed fast,
Repentance all toe late
For him, in time, a loveless wife;
For me lonely fate!
''And this" she said, twas the best of

But-part Of it was gone;

A bearded mouth. a stefrer face
That used to smile on me-,
A stalwart figure fnll of grace
Beside this could see.
The outlines of a woman's dress,
Along the mimic floor;
A blot, large as woman's hand,
The shoulder plainly bore.
A blotch that cam. SO near the heart

With gun and cap and hasty lines

Nor sunshine find to add line,
Nor shadow darken more.

Then whispered low prayer,

BABIES DONE TO Death.
Children Born I'm Sin and Killed for
Gatn-"Leaves from the Record of
a Private Hospital.
From the n. Y. World.1

The death of baby, not month
old, who had been put out to board in
the hands of Mrs. Kate Kilbride, of
SOY West Nineteenth street, in a small
way "baby farmer" has drawn gen.
eral attention to the fate which young
children born in vice, or what usually
amounts to the same thing, the lowest
stratum Of society, may meet at any
time through neglect or an intent posi-.
lively murderous: An illegitimate
child is born in this city about every
hour, and the fate of little Charley.
whose inquest was held last Sunday,
may be, and often is, the fate of any
one of them. His story never would
have drawn the least attention but for an
informality in the death certificate, and
after an inquest, which showed that the
child was starved to death, it was found
that nobody was legally to blame in the
matter. Each and all concerned in the
child's death stand lust where they did
before, barring little publicity which
the flaw in the certificate has caused.
There seems to be no manner of doubt
that cases more or less like this, where
minor bits of form and detail are at
tended to, are all the time slipping
through the meshes Of the Health Board
without even coroner's inquest to de-
eide in q judicial and authoritative
manner that nobody was at fault after
all.
1t is scarcely worth while in this case
to 60 over the whole story of the way
by which a young girl of seventeen found
that sin had brought on her path the
dark shadow Of coming motherhood.
1t is a very old story and a very sad
story.
Kate Kilbride, 4 large-armed Irish
woman, with expansive motherhood as
the prominent characteristic of her
form, and, it is fair. to conclude, Of her
nature as well, took charge. of the child
for $3.50 week. What the parting
was between mother and child no one
cared enough even to remember.
Says Mrs. Kilbride: "Mrs. Dorian
she sent for me, and she says, says she,
Take this baby, Mrs. Kilbride,' and
looks at him, and he had q sore breast
and sore mouth, and I was Altered
