Eva's Story.

Have you heard of the story of Eva ? She has been the object of great out pouring of popular sympathy in Paris. Eva Kleacht is Russian girl who was lion tanner in circus which has lately been making the tour of the world. On the voyage from Bahia to Maufitus, the steamer was wrecked md most of the company was lost, but Eva and few others were picked up by an American sailing vessel and taken to New York. In that city the Russian Consul furnished her transportation to Paris where she expected to find employment. But she sought work in vain, and preferred, rather than live dishonorably, to give herself into the charge of the police as person without visible means of support. Now, vagrancy is punished severely in France; Eva was taken at her word and was sent to the 'Depot," where, after time she was transferred to St. Lazare, the prison tor women. A journalist who was pass ing through the court yard as she was about entering the prison van was struck with EvR's proud and noble air, and in- qulred her history. It was told him. He interested himself with other people in her behalf, and the result was that Fran conf, the director of the great circus bearing his name, went to the prison, offered her employment and proper po- sltlon and she was speedily released. She now appears nightly at the circus as 8 horse tanner, for it appears that her &C., complishments are varied. She says that she does not regret her course in any manner, and that she would have suffer- ed long Imprisonment rather than have anything but proper recognition from society. Her sturdy independence had made her quite heroine. What Q TO- nance might be written concerning her life, and how true it is that truth is stranger than fiction.

A Tramp Saves a Train.

The St. Louis Republican says A few days ago tramp boarded freight train on the St. Louis, Kansas City and Northern road, and started for St. Jo- seph, Mo. He was put off the train at Gower, and after the train moved off he started on for that city. He had pro- ceeded bat short distance when he d1s- covered a broken rail, which doubtless snapped in twain as the freight passed over it in safety. It was on high, dan gerous curve in the road, and, taking in the situation, the tramp remained to flag the first train to avert danger and the probable loss of life. The first train proved to be passenger train bound for St. Joseph. He Jagged it in time, and the train and it's load of human freight were saved. The tramp was taken aboard, and a large purse of money made up for him. He gave his name and place of residence as Sam B. Kilm, Re- publican City, Kansas.
