A WRECK.

Marietta Mason was drunk again yesterda
morning. That is, she was charged with beinI
drunk; and further, with disturbing the peac
of the Second Municipal Police Court, anc
on these charges Marietta Mason was locked
up.
The turnkey did not seem to like the bust
ness, and he was very gentle with her, and
led her upstairs, and put her in a cell as fal
away as possible from the cell in which
drunks and disturbances are usually con-
fined.
He fumbled with the lock and it took him
some moments to get the key in and get the
door well fastened, and then he looked in the
barred window and smiled encouragingly-if if
such thing is possible for a turnkey under
circumstances of the kind - on Marietta
Mason, who was crouching down in the
corner, nearest the window, and gazing fixed
ly in the corner farthest from the window and
the darkest in the cell.
The turnkey had just reached the Office and
had hung up hi key, when a scream echoed
through the yard and broke into the Office,
and the turnkey murmuring commisseratngly,
'tshe is at it again" went into the yard and
looked up to the cell which held Marietta
Mason.
He saw her standing at the window still
gazing into the dark corner and waving and
beating off something she alone saw, shrek
ing all the while. The turnkey turned and
looked apprehensively in the direction of the
courtroom, in which people were shaking
their heads and smiling, and whispering
another drunk. 'His Honor" sho we'd that
he was annoyed and the court officers
looked at him inquiringly and expec,anty, |
but the clerk whispered something to him |
and he shook his head, and the order to put
the drunk in the dark CELL which the turn |
key had supposed would come, did not issue, |
and the turnkey left the yard and went into |
the station and apologetically remarked to the |
clerk:
81 know I ought to do it, but d-n me
If will till the order comes This is the third |
time this week she's been locked up; they
don't give her show. "Poor Mrs. Mason"
and he moved as far away from the door
opening into the yard as the space of the
Office would allow. He leaned against the
wall and while "poor Mrs. Mason" was
crowding in the corner, and sbrieking, and
beating of the fancied demons, he told the
clerk, and the sergeant, and the others in the
office, what he knew of her.
He said: "It is wreck, gentlemen; a
wreck that has drifted into this station many
times before. That woman up there, gentle
men, who is shrieking with the horrors, was
once lady. aye, it is hard to believe, but it
is fact. she was q lady. She was we'll off
too, and real pretty; you can tell by looking
1t her even now that she was pretty; it is not
all gone yet.
"Hcr husband was doing well, but he took {

not we turnkeys do. He went from the first ,,
drink down, and went pretty rapid too, and !

forced from him, and then she started down,

At one Of the stations on the plains
east Of Cheyenne. while the other passen-
gers were taking their meal, We strayed
away 10 breathe the invigorating air, and
were attracted by common housekeeping
arrangement not far from our train. The
horse aud COW were grazing at a little
distance from the empty wagon, from
which the top had been removed and
converted into house. Upon miniature
cOokiDg-stove the lady Of the mansion,
rosy-cheeked young woman, was preparing
the dinner, while the husband was engag-
ed in an employment, the practice Of
which would not have suggested itself to
us-beating into fat slabs the tin cans
that he had picked up ON his journey
These, he said, were for the purpose of
covering his roof when he built a house
somewhere. Somewhere? And where is
that ?" We asked. "Well, now, mister,
he replied, ''you are too much for me
there. Isuppose We must stop somewhere
by and by, but the farther we go the less
We want to go. ike to keep going thi:
way my wife likes it, and the baby in
there seems to like it, for she grows like

ways have plenty to eat, and so we dom
see the use of stopping. One of thes'
days, | suppose, We shall get to tn

membership in the National Grange, ell
eible 10 Office, but not to vote Also
prevents officers Of the National Grange
from voting, unless they are masters OF
State oranges, or wives OF masters Oh
State granges. Italso restores all former
member Of the National Grange to hon
orary membership, eligible to Office, but
not entitled to vote.
;. The effect Of this will be to require
district or county oranges to have just
the same number and style OF ofncers,
as a subordinate, State or National
Grange.
6. The effect Of this will be to require
the district or county oranges TO hold
their elections annually at such time as
they may determine.
! Z. The effect Of this would be that ths
terms Of Office in the National Grange
would be tive years instead of three years,
as now.
s. The effect Of this would be TO allow
the National Grange TO meet biennially
inlead Of annually, if they 50 determine.
8. The effect of this is too obvious to
need explanation. 1t is simply allowing
the States 10 do what the National
Grange has heretofore reserved to itsell
the right to do. Fix the fees for mem
bership.
: 10. The effect Of this is to make uni

IL. The effect Of this is similar TO tina
Of No. 8. Only this applies to dues, and
