~ YOUNG NoTHER'S BLICHTED LIFE.
From the New York C;rsnb4rp

lfron the New York Graplfc.l
"''e Italian woman, with a.child in her
arms, buried through the gate of The Roose-
Veitstreet ferry house last evening. aud 4 mo-
ment later was scarcely discerniblc in thu dark
shadow Of the corner in which she sought shell
ter. She was lily clad, and the major portion
OF the thia, bright colored shawl that covered
her head and shoulders was wrapped lovingly
about the babe In her arms. Her drcss of cal.
leo was worn, faded and patched in places un-
I'll theosiginal pattern was little more than q
patch itself; yet there were no tattered ends.
no rags The child nestled close to the mother
and babbled in . subdued manner, scarcely au-
diblc few feet away. When the boat eniered
the slip the mother was the first to no on
board. Welldressed gen and women, and
children clothed In garments of rich, warm
texture, nAled the cabins, and the little italian
woman atlraeted no attention, but remained
crouchcd IN the further corner Of the fosward
cabin, probably unseen by more than the two
or three parsons Immediately surrounding her.
Hardly bad the boat left the slip when tho
chatter incident to q public conveyance was
arrested BY the singing Of the first lines Of the
ballad " Kathleen Mavourneen." A moment
later men ceased reading their papers and lis
tened. AL eyes were turned to the insignia
cant figure in the dark corner. When the
last words had been sung Q perfect storm Of
applause was given, and In return the woman
sang one Of her own native airs, ballad
plaintive and touching, of one whose home and
friends were far away, while she, the child
widow mournfully called ON the sea to give
back her dead. Her voice was maryelo1sly
sweet and clear, and the afr, rendered as Il
was with subdued stress, was very effective.
Several women sobbed aloud, while there vero
not lew men present who coughed suspici-
ment, using their hanalkerchiefs very energcti-
cally. That woman left the cabin richer BY
score OF dollars, for as she glided through the
cabin with o0tstrctched palm bank notes and
loose change were pressed into her hand in
lieu Of the pennies usually cast to mendicants,
for she was but beggar. She related her
history subsequently, 10 gentleman who in
quired into her life. She was educated for a
public singer in her native city, Genoa. Her
lathcr was ehorister of q popular chu.
Four years ago she fell In love with an Aneyi-
AN who was visiting Genoa. Her father op-
posed the attentions of the tourist, who, he
said, was dissipated. It was the old story
from that point. She fed with her lover, and
: few months later he deserted her. Byselling
her jewelry she paid an emigrant passage to
New York. Her baby was born on boari ship.
she searched the streets for the man she be-
loved her husband till she had no hope left.
Even if she found him, he might repuisc her.
Her baby was sick, and In devoting herself to
is care she had lost her work. Now she was
! beggar. No, she would not give her name;
her friends should never know her fate
