were sally's clothes -Sally's own clothes,

The parson steered the lunatic and the

and sharply cross-examined her. Albeit
she was tough customer, the clergyman
piled her with the terrors OF the judgement
day, of the undying worm and the qpench-
less birthstone fre-until she wilted and
made an open confession. She had sever
al times worn these boys clothes on her
late masters business. In fact, he had
procured them for her. She had worn
them the last time on Sunday night, when
she delivered the note to young Carleton.
She wept violently when the parson said
he did not believe her story, and threaten
ed to have her arrested.

A SHATTERED IDOL.

While a Chicago suburban train was
Visiting in the depot last evening, o stout
looking individual turned to the only other
occupant of the car at the time-a gentle
a-an->and taking out cigar, politely in
Iuired:
4Haye yon any objection to my smols-
ing?"
ooh, no sir" was the reply, smoking
doesn't affect me-
''I'm very glad, remarked the stout par
ty, as he proceeded to hight his cigar, for
| feel just as though must have a little
smoke"
Just as the smoker was getting well to
work, and while the party present was still
admiring the gentlemans polite regard for
the comfort Of others, a cadaverous-look
ing man came in and dropped into seat
near by.
"Does my smoking annoy you?" asked
the stout man with great blandness, look
ing toward the newcomer.
1T does, sir, very much" vas the an
swer 'the fumes Of tobacco are very un-
pleasant and injurious to me-"
Did the smoker toss his cigar out ofthe
window, or retreat to the smoking car with
his tweed? ?" Not that any one knows Of.
He only stuck it back into his mouth and
pulled away the more fercely, as he re-
piled:
"Well, if you're SO particular, there's
plenty of room for YOU in the car ahead"
And this man, whom the first party held
as modest gentleman, would not quit his
putting until the car was filled, and the
conductor came along and told him that if
he didn't stop it, he'd get "kicked off the
train

when the gate was opened went in Ih
clerks, the Judge and everybody were as
tonished.
She was one of "the batch" which en-
tered the Black Maria. She served her
time, although friends offered to pay the
fine, and after that she was never seen
back of the town and was never again
brought in.
The officer who arrested Daisy Deane
stated one night that he had seen her IN
the early morning while on his way home,
on quiet street uptown, with that old
woman. He said, "You would hardly
know her, she was SO neatly and yet 50
poorly clad, and was SO tender with the
other;" and he expressed the belief that
the old woman had found her daughter.

DAISY DEANE.

Daisy Deane sat on one ofthe low bcrech-
es in the front row. Her pretty face was
rather flushed, and her bold, black eyes
had lost some oftheir brightness, for Daisy
Deane had been drunk the night before,
and had been locked up. One Of her
friends" /" however, had secured her release
for the night, under promise that she would
come to court and answer, and in keeping
with her promise she had come. Daisy
Deane was one Of the fallen, and was one
of the widest; but it was the first time she

the Judge.
The adrunks' and disturbances were
trotted out and trotted in again, and still
Daisy Deane looked on and seemed to see
nothing; until, at last, an old woman was
lied out-a woman with gray hair, wr1nkleo
face and hands, and shabby but neatly
matched clothes. She advanced in dazed
wav, and trembled as she stood before the
Judge.
Daisy Deane looked on her IN the same
absent manner she had looked on all tht
others, but she started, her face flushed
and sic leaned forward and gazed on tn
old woman with painful intensity; thel
I she sank back, dropped her eyes and low
!, cred her veil, but her face was still turne'

i, The old woman had been arrested as
vagrant.
The officer said he had watched her.
She had a habit Of coming back of tow
