| To rake the Lives OIL hfE Two
Children, browns Herself in a
kCistern-A sad Comment upon the
Relentless Tax Collector.
st. LOUIS, December l3.-At al early
hour this morning the body OF Mrs.
Mary Bremen, a highly respected and
wel-known widow lady, who lived near
| the corner of Eighteenth and OFsllOn
streets, was discovered in cistern To-
Gated upon the premises. The sttendsn.
| circumstances o. her death are rs follows:
She is the owner of the house 10 which
she, with her two children, has resided
up to the present time, but the house
stands upon leased ground, upon which
she WAS liable for for the taxes. She told
neighbor yesterday that she had just
returned from the collector Office, where
she had informed those in charge that
she found it utterly impossible to raise
the amount necessary to pay her taxes,
and that she had begged for further time,
which had been denied her, and that
rather than be turned out homeless upon
the world with her two children, che
would kill them and herself, and she in
timated that she had the Ratchet with
which to do it.
Then the neighbor endeavored 10
pscify her, but without avail. One Of
her neighbors met her out in the yard
this morning al five o'clock, and Mrs.
Brennan informed her that she had spent
wretched night, being unable 70 sleep
10 consequence Of the impending doom
which seemed to hover over her. Mrs.
Brennan returned 10 the house and be-
gan sweeping the room, and while so do
ing said TO her little son, a lad OF eleven
years, Il wish | was where your father
is, and l shall soon be there" Shortly sf-
terward she procured Iope, and placed
1t around the neck Of her girl, six years
old, with the evident intention of strang-
ling her, but the boy succeeded IN re-
leasing his sister, and the poor mother
hadn't the courage 10 repeat the attempt
upon the life OF toe little innocent.
Shortly after that Mrs. Brennan left
the room, and was gone some time when
the son started out TO look for her, bat
could not find her. Subsequently one Of
the neighbors went 10 the cIstern 10 get
a bucket OF water, when, 70 her horror
and dlsmay, she discovered the body in
the cistern. help was speedily sum
moned, but life was extinct long before
the body was taken OFT.
Officer Kicker was called IN, and has
tened 20 remove the curbstone from
around the clstern, and finally succeeded,
with the aid OF the neighbors, in hosting
out the body. Later in the Day, upon
examining the single room occupied by
Mrs. Brennan and her two children,
Ratchet was found ID The bed, with which
It had been the evident determin alton OF
the poor woman 70 slay her children,
that they might not be left 10 buffet the
storms OF life alone, but her courage must
have failed her, and she decided 10 kill
herself but let them live. The Ratchet
had been carefully secreted beneath the
bed-clolhes, and bsd probably been
placed there during the night, after she
had re!eEted from her desperate purpose.

Public Balls,

A lady, who feels deeply upon the sub
iect, has called cur attention to the num-
Der OF public balls given from time to
time in this city, and bewails the un-
healthy influence exercised by them.
These balls are increasing in number,
and, we regret to say, in their vicious Ell
fects. Some of them are low, ana
few of them are pure. In the opinion OF
our lady friend, there is nothing that the
law permits that creates similar AMOUNT
of immortality, as these promiscuous pub
lie balls. How many fathers and moth
ers are heavy hearted because their sons
and daughters will persist in attending
this species of amusement We tear
that the number is much too large. We
do not propose to enter into an elaborate
dissertation on this subject but shall pre-
sent the factsot the case in few simple
words. Young girls between the ages
of fifteen and twenty attend the so-cslied
balls very frequently without the knowl-
edge of their parents and almost always
without their tree consent. They mingle
with young men OF whom they Know
almost nothing, who are half intoxicated
and wholly immoral and such contact
cannot fail to lessen their seif.respect
and modesty Young men who are
comparatively free from thesG
faults, by association with "tast
persons Of their own and the op-
poslte sex, are soon brought to
think that this lcentious and mad
debauchery is "seeing life and that they
are making "men' OF themselves. Let
them 90 oDl The majority of them will
add their names to the long list OF sots
gamblers and low besstly semblances Of
humanity that fill the jsils and Potter's
fields. So much for the men. What OF
the women2 Ask the poor wretch that
starts up in your path st midnight from
some back alley or. foul cellar, that ques'
ton, and she will answer, if she tells the
truth, by pointing to herself. Agsin We
say, let US do away with low public balls

Senator Kcrnan's Opinion.

In the Democratic caucus Tuesday
night Senator Herman, IN the course OF a
vigorous appeal TO his party friends not
to sustain Conklipg, expressed grave ap-
prehensions that if ConklIng beat the
President the prestige OF so great vic
tory would soIidify about him the Repub-
lican party in New York State, and
mike it we'll nigh impossible for the
Democrats to wrest the State from his
hands; while on the other hand, defeat
Tor Conkling in this fight means the
downfall of his power in New York, aUd
the Generalization and disintegrstion OF
the Republican party in that State. Not
a few Democrats were governed by Mr..
Kernan's wishes in the matter holding
il was safer for Democrat TO take the
advice Of Democrat rather than OF the
Republican Senator in the matter.
