An Afflicted Woman.

Electa Miller of Low Hampton, N. Y,
daughter Of the late VIM. S. Miller, whose
death appeared in late issue of THE GLOBE
has been and is sorely afflicted. She was
married several years ago to man by the
name of Smith, but for some cause their
married life was one of incessant discord.
They lived together few years, then sep
Grated, she taking her little girl an only
child, and returned to her parental home,
and soon after obtained bill from her hus-
band. Since that time she has not seen
what might be called a day of health.
In April 1867 she suffered severe attack
of inflammatory rheumatism, which in
course of time drew her limbs and hands
out of shape. She consulted physicians
and tried many remedies but to no avail.
In the spring of 1879 she visited New York
and Long Island hoping to derive some ben
fit from the sea breezes, but it was without
avail. She returned home in the fall with
out any decided improvement but gradu-
ally grew worse until she was unable to
help herself in the least.
Last November che was taken with feal-
full pains and swelling in her limbs; in q
short time her face commenced swelling,
and to break out with sores which COM
pletely covered her head and face SO that
they had at one time the appearance of raw
and at another time of baked beef, which
was fcafful sight to behold. In the mean
time sores came out on her hands and other
"a IF har hOdu Tho rhuainianc
nounced it erysipeas. Before the sores
could be checked they had eaten into the
skin and flesh to the depth of one-fourth of
an inch which has disfgured her face 60
much 30 as not to have the slightest re-
semblance of her former visage her lips
are eaten off so as to show her teeth, and
the end of her nose is also gone, and her
head which was once covered with long
beautiful hair is now entirely bare. The
sores have nearly healed, but sharp pierre
ing pains continue to dart through her
frame, which can be compared to nothing
but the agonies of death. Hers is deplor-
able condition, words cannot describe her
situation. She is confined to her bed
where she has lain for six long dreary
| months unable to move herself only as she
is moved by some one.
or the many who have visited her in her
last sickness, without an exception, have
pronounced her dismal sight. 1t seems
impossible that human being could live
through such Affections. Her daughter
who is now young lady of 20 has taken
nearly the whole care of her, for ten years.
She has deprived herself of many pleasures
which other girls of her age have enjoyed
tor the sake of taking care of her afflicted
mother. For the last six months she has
had the full charge of her, and given heI
such care as only loving and dutiful child
can bestow upon parent. 10.

Castaways Of the Pacific,

SOME time in May last Rear Admiral
Reynolds, of the United States navy,
heard at Yokohama that there were
number Of shipwrecked persons sup
posed to be on some island near Dampier
Straits, in lat. 0.34 S. and Ion. 1902 E.
1t appears that the whaling barque Agate,
which was in that vicinity in February
last, was boarded by natives from the
islands of Ballanta, King William, and
other islands, and the Captain of the
barque was informed by one of the chiefs
that on an island to the northward there
were sixteen white men and one woman.
The information was communicated IN
broken English, and was hardly intelli-
gible. In the direction in which the
chief pointed lay the islands of Carmen,
Iona, and Maglen, and it was impossi-
BILE to tell how far off the shipwrecked
ton, Admiral Reynolds dispatched the
steamer Alert to search for the castaways
among the islands about Dampier Straits.
A San Francisco dispatch now states that
the schooner G. S. Stevens had arrived at
that port, and reported having fallen in
with the barque Panic, of New Bedford,
on the I'd of March, the Captain of which
signaled that he had ON board the crew
and passengers of the schooner Urania,
wrecked on the Island of Lokin (?). The
discovery of these unfortunate people is
most extraordinary, considering that the
Urania has been missing since Deem
Der, 1875. 1t appears that the Urania
sailed from Kodish, Alaska Territory, on
the Goth of December, 1875, for San
Francisco, since which time nothing has
been seen or heard of her. She had then
on board, beside her crew, Mr. Sheeran,
the United States Collector at Alaska,
Capt. Lee and his wife, and others, max
ing a total of sixteen men and one
woman, which is exactly the number
given TO the Captain of the Agate by the
chief of the Islands of Ballanta in Feb
ruary.

Legal COurtesies.

THEY had a very interesting trial at
the United States Land Office in Los
Angeles the other day, the case being
Ketchum Us. The State of California,
with Messrs. Gould s. Blanchard as at
torneys for plaintiff, and Judge Widney
for defense. Mr. Gould called Ketchum
and asked: "What became of Lach-
enais?" Witness" He was hanged by
Judge Widney and some other persons"
Judge Widney quickly arose and drew a
pistol from his pocket, and, holding the
muzzle down, addressed Ketchum sub
stantially as follows: " You say muir
dered man! You lie, you perjured
villain was in the county courtroom
trying case at the time Lachenais was
hanged and knew nothing whatever about
it. If you and your crowd are armed to
assassinate or murder me, draw your
pistols and go on" Mr.. Gould" We
are not armed" Judge Widney-"Then
| will put away my weapon, as will not
use it on an unarmed man" The case
then proceeded without interruption I'M
til the noon adjournment, when Judge
Widney asked Mr.. Gould if his party in.
tended coming armed or unarmed in the
afternoon, as he would be governed en-
tirely by their actions. He said he only
wanted fair show, but did not intend
that anyone should get the drop on him.
Mr.. Gould made no definite promise.

Cost Of Transportation Before the Rail-
road.

THAT there was need for new methods
of accommodation, the increasing
population made every day more appar-
emit In 1884 the cost of transportation
from Philadelphia to Erie is stated to
have been $249 ton, the method being
by pack-horses principally, which were
driven in lines of ten or twelve, each
horse being tied to the tail of the one
preceding, so that the train was under
the management of a single driver. Each
horse carried pack weighing about 300
pounds. In 1899 the first saw-mill in
Ohio was built by the New England Ohio
Company, about sixteen miles from
Marietta, on Wolf Creek, about a mile
above its junction with the Muskingum.
The crank for this mill was made in New
Haven, Conn, and weighed $50 pounds.
1t was carried by pack-horses over the
mountains to the Youghiogheny River,
at SimrePs Ferry, and thence shipped by
water to Marietta. This same year the
first wagon-load of goods is said to have
been transported by the southern route,
through Virginia, from Hagerstown, Md,
to Brownsville, Pa, whence, by the
Monongahela, water communication was
had with the Ohio River. A train of
four horses could take Il ton from Hagers-
town and return in a little less than
month, the distance being 140 miles, at a
charge of three dollars hundred-weight,
or sixty dollars a ton.
The operations on the lakes during the
war of 1912 called attention again to the
cost of transportation, and IN 1918 the
House directed the Secretaries of War
and of the Treasury to report at the next
session list of the internal improve
ments in progress, and plans for aiding
them by appropriations. In the discus
sion upon this motion it was stated that
the expense for the transportation of
each barrel of flour to Detroit was not
less than sixty dollars, while for every
pound of ammunition and other material
it was not less than fifty cents.-Eda0ard

THE PASTORS RETERIE.

THE pastor sits in his easy chair,
With the Bible upon his knee.
From gold to purple the clouds in the west
Are changing momently:
The shadows lie in the valleys below,
And hide in the curtains fold;
And the page grows dim whereon he reads:
" remember the days OF old"
Not clear nor dark" as the Scripture saith,
The pastors memories are:
No day that was gone was shadowless,
No night was without its star;
But mingled bitter and sweet hath been
The portion of his cup:
THE hand that in love hath smitten, he saith,
In love hath bound US UP.
Fleet flies his thought over many field
OF stubble and snow and bloom,
And now it trips through festival,
And now il halts at a tomb:
Young faces smile in his reverie
or those that are young no more,
And voices are heard that only come
With the winds from far-oh shore.
He thinks of the day when first. with fear
And faltering lips. he stood
To speak in the sacred place the Word
To the waiting multitude;
He walks again to the house of God,
With the voice of Joy and praise.
With many whose feet long time have pressed
Heavens safe and blessed ways.
He enters again the homes of toll,
And joins in the homely chat;
He stands in the shop of the artisan;
He sits. where the Master sat.
At the poor mans fire and the rich mans feast.
But who to-day are the poor.
And who are the rich: Ask Him who keeps
The treasures that ever endure.
Once more the green and the grove resound
With the merry children din;
He hears their shout at the Christmas tide,
When Santa Claus stalks in.
Once more he lists while the camp fire roars
On the distant mountain side.
Or, proving aposteship, plies the brook
Where the fierce young troutlings hide.
And now he beholds the wedding train
To the altar slowly move
And the solemn words are said that seal
The sacrament Of love.
Anon at the font he meets once more
The tremulOus youthful pair,
With white-robed cherub growing response
To the QOnsecrating prayer.
BY the couch of pain he kneels again;
Again. the thin hand lies
Cold in his palm while the last far look
Steals into the Steadfast eyes:
And now the burden Of hearts that break
Lies heavy upon his own
The widows woe and the orphans cry
And the desolate mothers moan.
So blithe and glad. so heavy and sad
Are the days that are no more,
So mournfully sweet are the sounds that float
With the wind from far-off shore.
For the pastor has learned what meaneth the wor
That is given him to keep
Rejoice with them that do rejoice,
And weep with them that weep
1t is not in vain that ne has trod
This lonely and toilsome way
1t is not in vain that ne has wrought
In the vineyard all the day;
For the soul that gives is the soul that lives,
Aud bearing anothers load
Doth tighten your own. and shorten the way,
And brighten the homeward road

Fraud Practiced Under the Bankrupt
Law.

The New York Eceaing Post gives the
following illustration of what may be
done to defraud creditors under the Bank
rupt law by dishonest men willing to
swindle and commit perjury:
A merchant bought $4,000 Of goods
on credit, and soon after had himself put
in bankruptcy by friend, SO he would
have TO pay nothing for a release; pro.
cured friend to be made assignee, who
had the stock appraised at 5000, which
another friend bought in at fifty cents
on the dollar, and transferred to the orig.
inal merchant on the very day he re-
ceived his discharge, thus securing goods
worth $l2, 900 for $2,50O. When one of
his creditors, purchasing at his store,
asked reduction on the article, giving
as reason that he had lost so much
money by him, the debtor exclaimed:
DO you think / was such a fool as to
60 into bankruptcy for your beneft," II
will be asked: How can such things be
and not come to the notice Of the officers
of the court? The proceedings were
regular and the court relies upon the
oaths made before Il. Even in the case
of the bankrupt who has no desire TO de.

ings are so enormous that, as the law
student said: 1.-THE aim Of bankruptcy
seems to be TO make an equitable divis-
ion of the assets between the officers of
the court and the members of the bar"

Suggestions to House-Builders.

First, let your cellars be large, we'll ven
tilated and lined with stone or cemented
above the level of the ground. The breath
of life in furnace-heated houses depends
literally on the air of the cellar, unless
there be a fue for fresh air extending from
the furnace out-ofdoors (never the case in
cheap, snowy houses). The air of the
whole house is sucked through this narrow
and often unclean apartment, the care of
which is usually intrusted to ignorant
servants. We have spoken in a previous
number of the malaria engendered by
massing quantities of vegetables in the
cellars as is the practice in farm-houses
during the winter. The lining of stone or
cement not only prevents dampness, but is
absolutely necessary in streets though
which the sewers pass, as protection from
rats. Terriers, ferrets, traps or poison are
feeble defenses against the legions which
swarm in nightly from a neighboring cul.
vert. Next to the celler comes the
kitchen, which should be large, airy and
sunny. To take no higher ground, con,
venienees in this department are polite
investment which pays a full interest ol
capital, especially to the housekeeper who
does not live in large city. Stationary
tubs, closets beneath the dressers for -four
dry groceries, spices, etc. will be likely tc
tempt into her household better class ot
servants, and when she is forced to turr
cook and baker herself, will take half the
burden from her weary hands. An addi
ton to comfort much neglected by builder:
is the lighting of stair-ways, closets, pan
tries. We have in our minds eye a modest
little house, in closely built neighborhoOG
of dark dwellings, which gives you sunny
cheerful welcome in every corner: a result
produced not only by windows wherever {
window is practicable, but by a sl1y-light o
plate glass which sends down sunshine
through three floors of closets, halls anc
pantries. A mistake made also, which re
solves itself into a question of humanity, i.
the placing the servants chambers on the
top of the house, be that three or seven
stories above the kitchen. Passing along &
city street at night one cannot look up al
the dim lights burning in these far skyey
attics without groan of compassion for the
wearied wretches dragging themselves tC
their beds up yonder after the days hare
