Gertie.

Boys OF ten or twelve, seen on the street,
appear heartless and without sympathy, and
yet you wrong them. Among the houses
on Clinton street is one which has missed
many apane Of glass in its windows. Rags
and papers are used to keep the cold air
out, or it may blow in and whistle through
the desolate rooms without let or hinder
ance. A girl of ten, whose life had been
one long period of hunger, pain and I'M
happiness, was taken sick one day in
March, and people passing by could see
her lying on a miserable bed near one Of
the windows. 1t was curious that auy of
the boys coming or going should have
stopped to think or care about it, but they
did. One of them, feeling sad at sight
of the sufferers pale face, handed an
orange Though n broken pane, saw it
clasped by slender white fingers, and then
ran away. He told other boys, and by
and by there wasn't day that some lad
didn't halt at the window TO pass in fruit
and flowers. Mono of them knew the
family or ever spoke to the girl, and so
they gave her the name of Gertie and
without marbles, and the other
Things which belong to boyhoood
sports, that their pennies might buy an
Gertie, and their anxiety for her to get
well was fully as great as the doctors or
mothers. Whatever present they had they
handed it through the broken pane, waited
for her to reach up, and never fingered
longer than 10 hear soft "thank you
from her lips. Days went by, but the boys
did not grow weary, nor did they miss q
day. 1t was romance and charity so well
combined that it gladdened their hearts and
made them fond Of each other. Yesterday
morning lads hand. holding a sweet
flower and big orange, went up TO the win
dow. No white fingers touched his as
they grasped the offering. He waited a
moment, and then with beating heart look
ed through into the room. The bed had
been taken away. On table lay pine
| coffin, and on the coffin was a bunch of
faded flowers which had been handed
through the window the day before. Dealt,
had been there, and the boys no longer had
q mission.
You might not have seen the boy hiding
in doorway and wiping tears from his
eyes. He was there, however, and when
asked the cause OF his sorrow he sobbed
out the whole sad romance IN four words.

Municipal Elections in Indiana

The republicans of Indianapolis, Ind =,
carried the city election there, Tuesday, by
over 1000 majority, electing II out of 10
councilmen, Notwithstanding the sudden
redistricting of the city by the old demo-
cratic council, last week. Both parties
were well organized and the election
warmly contested. Disturbances Of u mi.
nor character took place in several wards
during the day and after the closing of the
polls serious fight commenced near the
9th ward voting place, which continued
northward on Illinois street to the vicinity
OF the Grand and Bates hotels, where it
assumed the character of riot, lasting 20
or 80 minutes, during which time pistols,
clubs and bricks were freely used, result
ing In the killing one and probably fatal
injuring of two colored men. There are,
at present, eight wounded persons at the
surgical institute, and several other blacks
and whites are known to have been taken
to their homes, more or less hurt. II is
impossible, from the many conflicting ac-
counts, to give the immediate cause OF the
fight. No further trouble is apprehended.
Dispatches from various points In the state
show mostly republican gains.

How England Breaks Her Treaty
Obligations.

Official information has been received
that on Saturday last Lord Derby, at a
called session of the council, submitted the
last note Of the state department Of the
United States, stating the views of Presi-
dent Grant in the Winsow extrsdtion
case. The council, after full con.idera-
ton of this important question, unanimous
ly decided to adhere TO the original posi-
ton taken. Lord Derby was authorized
to communicate this fact TO Sir Edward
Thornton, British Minister here, with in
structions to inform Secretary Fish that
unless the United States indicated some
change of policy or n desire TO introduce
additional facts, Winslow would be dis
charged. Our government shows no dis
position to modify Its position, but de-
mands the extradtion Of Winslow under
the Ashburton treaty. When The final ac-
tion of the British government Is officially
known here, the president will communi-
cate it to congress, accompanied by all the
papers bearing on the case.
