Bridal and Burial Bells.

a New York exchange makes the fol-
lowing sensible remarks to which We in
vite the attention of all our American
girls:
Several circles of New York society
have been shocked the past week by the
sudden and unexpected deaths of brides
of less than year. Mrs. Rives, who
was Miss Fellows, ond who was mar
ried less than a year ago at st. Thomas
Church, attended reception given on
Friday week by her mother-in-law, and
two days after was dead, having been
sick but an hour. Mrs. Rutherford
Stuyvesant, married less than year, has
also died suddenly. the same thing
recently happened in Boston, when a
wife of less than twelve months, who
was about to become mother, suddenly
died. Such events as these are very
distressing, and OF more than ordinary
import. 1t becOmes all young married
women and men to seek for their signifi-
canoe. Why should young wives die so
suddenly, even before they have put off
their bridal robes! 1t is fact that the
fashionable American girl, the tender
uOtHOusC pistHI VI Jul SiSdt SillSs. IL
unable to bear the strain put upon her
constitution by the changed conditions
in life which the married state imposes :?
Is she prudent under certain clrcum-
stances, in keeping up her round of gay
social entertainments? Of being out
late, eating at al! hours, dancing, and
dressing in the unhealthy fashion of the
day? The American girl of the period
is not as robust and healthy as her
predecessors were; the girl in New York
fashionable life has much to contend
with, and if she Overtaxes her vitality
the thread of life may suddenly snap in
twain. Parents, physicians, and hus-
bands, have a duty to perform in this mat
ter which is imperative. Wealthy peO-
pie are not free from the laws OF life,
any more than poor folks, and they must
obey them, or suffer the consequences.
1t seems dreadful pity that SO many
Young wives should be led to the altar
only to find the bier within the brief
period of year. The burial bells fol-
low all too closely the wedding chimes!

The Indian Girls mt Carlisle.

The Carlisle school is national in.
stitution, occupying the United States
Barracks at Carlisle, Pa, military post
which dates from the revolution, and will
garrison 1000 men. The buildings have
been bat partially used by the soldiers
stationed there, and are now prOpiti-
Ously utilized in a work which thor
Oughly pursued must relieve the army
of its only labOrs and perils. There are
now 154 Indian youths at Carlisle bal
racks, nearly all fetched there in OctO-
Der from the West by Captain Pratt.
There could be accommodated 500 if
there were funds enough to bring them
there and take care of them; and there
are score or SO teachers, mostly young
women, who have something to give up
in entering upon such a task. There
are about forty girls at Carlisle. and
what is said of them in little paper
printed at the school is 50 interesting
that we quote a little Of it: "YOu
could hardly find as many girls in any
school or of any color that would get
along with each other 80 amicably.
Only one is married, Sarah Mathew,
daughter of Spotted Tail and wife of
Chas. TacKett, an interpreter. Their
hearts are very tender and easily worked
upon, and few days ago when We
| went to the rOOOm of a kiOwa girl who
had that day heard of the death of her
father, we found two Sioux girls sitting
with her, and showing by their faces
that they felt very sorry for her in her
great trouble OF course the Indian
girls are brought up to labor; once, when
we were talking to them through the in
terpreter, we asked them if they wanted
to learn to sew, sweep. clean, etc. in
"the white mans way" Nearly every
girl made ready reply, but one
brought out her answer with so much
force that we inquired particularly
what she said, and the answer was, "she
says she do want to learn AWFUL bad"
The delight the little girls take in learn
ing anything new, and their great de-
sire to excel the larger girls, is remark
able. Not many days ago several of the
little girls, without a suggestion from
any one, took it upon themselves to mend
the stockings of the large girls, who were
at work in the dining-rOOm, and, con-
sidering their age and experience, they
were well mended. And so it is with
everything they undertake, and the
half has not been told, and can't be-"

Hereditary IS Genius"

That the son of a man, who, when he
is not breaking into shops and houses, is
in the State prison, and of a woman,
who, at the age of three, was convicted
of theft and had lived among criminals
ever since, who was the daughter of a
woman that kept disorderly house and
drove her daughter into the streets to
steal-that the offspring of such parents
should have lived a life of crime is as
natural as that night should succeed
day. He is but fourteen years old, and,
on being at his mothers request arrested
and brought into a New York police
court in the hope of saving him, cried in
loud and impudent tone, that woman
is thief and a shoplifter, and wants to
get rid of me-" She said she had Law
ished money upon him, sending him to
three different Canadian colleges, but he
always came back to New York, fire.
quenting low saloons and consorting
with desperate characters. She obtained
q good situation for him in a second
hand furniture store, but whel the pro-
prietor, q woman, threatened to dismiss
him for bad conduct, he seized carving
knife, and, at the point of it, made her
write out q recommendation of good
character, to the effect that he had been
q steady, honest lad. When his mother
stopped speaking he began abusing her
again, and said she was always trying to
get rid of him. Twice he came from
Montreal to Detroit to find her, but she
had lett for New Orleans, leaving him
only IS to get back to New York with ;
and At another time she put him out of
the house. He confessed he was never
happy in school. The tutors made it
unpleasant for him. When the magis-
trate remanded him to prison he cried
90 that he had him brought back to zee
what the matter was; whereupon he be-
gan abusing his mother again. His
mother is named Lyons, and is we'll
known in various cities as an expert
shop!ifter.

ancient blue cloak tightly round him, he
struck his iron-tipped staff two or three
times on the flags of the hall, to intimate
TO the members of his household that it
was time TO be off.
They came gathering down stairs and

Polheim was landowner on small scale

The eldest Of these two laborers, tall,
rosy-cheeked. fair haired, blue eyed fellow
named Karl, had shown signs of late of
being "a bit soft" about Fraulein Nal

though he was kind master he had a
squires pride, and would have kicked
Karl straightway out of his house if he
had suspected Malchen. of cherishing him
any regard. At least this is what he had
once said to Karl with more bluntness
than prudence, for worldly wisdom would,
perhaps, have suggested that he should
begin by turning off Karl before Malchen
sentiments toward him had ripened into
affection.
