TIE TRUE GENTIE.N.1N.

When pressed beneath misfortunc's hand
And troubles at his door shall stand,
However great his need,
His faith and hope will nc'cr depart,
And patience prove him to the heart
A gentleman indeed.
And if position, wealth and flmo
UDile to honor his good name
Among h fellow mar,
With loving heart and liberal hand
Amidst the needy he will stand,
The noble gentleman.
TO raise the fallen, help the weak,
Distress and sickness he will seek,
Nor grudgingly he gives
lie loves to scatter good around,
And in Gods scrvicealways found,
a gentleman he lives.
And when the shades of death draw near
He meets the darkness without fear
No vain regrets no sighS;
He hears his Saviour say, "Wcl, done ~
He goes to wear the crown he won-
\ gentleman he dies

Miss Jennie Frost, OF Council Bluffs
Iowa, who had marvellous escape
from the train that WAS wrecked on
the Rock Island railroad last week
relates that one woman heroically res
cued her six children and then went
to the aid Of other sufferers, while an
other lady was terribly exercised over
the loss Of her satchel, and could
think Of nothing else. One lady, who
was in agony from a broken wrist
and compound fracture Of one Of
her legs, would not consent to have
morphine injected into her arm be-
cause she feared it might hurt her. -
Another lady who was severely in
iured was offered n glass OF brandy
but refused to swallow it, stating that
she was strict temperance woman
and meant to stand BY ber principles
even if she died in the attempt. A
little child clung to window sill ant
kept her head above the surging wa.
ters until she was saved. A little
girl lay for hours with only her face
out of water, the corpse of q large
man being stretched across her little
body. 1t was supposed that she toe
was dead, but man who was "chop,
ping out the wounded thought he
saw the little ones lips tremble. She
was taken out, covered with blood
her little stocking; as red as if they
had been dyed, and in few hours
she was as lively as cricket, asking
if anybody had seen her doll.

consignment he had just received
from America, found an insect new to
him among the grain, and still alive.
The insect was at once subjected to
miscropic examination, and there is
no doubt it is a veritable Colorado.
Fortunately the models and engrav-

part of the country have made its ap-

Yes, ma am.

A MEAN MAN.-Some gentlemen
were talking about meanness, yester
day, writes ELI Perkins, when one
said he knew a man on Lexington St.
who was the meanest man in New
York.
How mean is that . I asked.
why, Eli, he said, he is SO mean
that he keeps a five cent piece with a
string tied to it to give to beggars
and when their backs are turned he
jerks it out of their pockets
why, this man is so confounded
mean, con ntinued the gentleman, that
he gave his children three cents apiece
every night for going to bed without
their supper, but during the night,
when they were asleep, he went up
stairs, took the money out of their
clothes and then whipped them in the
morning for losing it
Does he do anything else?'
Yes, the other day | dined with
him and l noticed the poor little SER
want girl whistled all the way up the
stairs with the desert, and, when l
asked the mean old scamp what made
her whistle so happy, he said :
why, | keep her whistling so she
can t eat the raisins out of the cake.

, The New York Sun says: A result
of the enforcement of prohibition of
whiskey in the extensive shoe-manu-
featuring town of Brockton, Mass,
has been the development of large
number of clubs where young and
old can meet in secret and drink in.
toxicating beverages. The manner of
evading the law is this; Several per.
sons sign what purport to be the con-
stitution and bylaws Of a CLUB organ
lied for social enjoyment. Each men,
ber is provided with ticket, on
which there are numbers ranging
from one to twenty, and also with a
key, on the payment Of $l.l5. The
fractional amount represents what
was paid to have the key made, and
the 81 is the initiation fee. a jani-
tor is hired. Members are allowed to
take in friend, and when drinks are
called for the member has to present
his ticket to the janitor, who punches
as many holes in it as will correspond
with the punches consumed. 1t might
be thought the janitor was a bar keep
err; but that is not his title in the
club. All the tickets are called in
once week, and then there is gen
eral settlement. Eeach member is as
sessed in proportion to what he gets.
1t is virtually a means by which a
bar can be kept and barkeeper
paid for his services. Some Of the
club rooms have been fitted up very
handsomely. Many young men have
been induced to DIN these clubs, and
consequently to drink liquor, who
would probably never have done the
latter under other circumstances.
