From the N. Y. Star.
HOW YOUNG GIRLS ARE
RUINED.

THE PERSISTENT EFFORTS OF BAY
ARD STREET PRocURER THwARTED.
Yesterday a young girl, who told
jude Walsh of Brooklyn that her
name was Mary Hubbard, that she was
16 years old, and belonged in Florida,
Orange County, N. Y, was commit
ted to the Raymond Street Jail for ten
days ON the charge of intoxication.-
The girl was arrested by one of Capt.
Crafts men in the Second Precinct, on
Tuesday night, while drunk. She was
prepossessing in appearance and wei!
dressed. When Mary was brought in
to court procurer from Bayard street
stood ready to pay her fine. For the
purpose of allowing the police time to
communicate with Mary's parents, the
Judge committed her to Jail. The girl
was brought back on writ, and the
Judge was forced to accept the pay
ment of fine. Capt. Crafts again ar
rested her on the charge of prostitu-
ton, and the disgusted procurer saw
her committed to Jail to await exami-
nation without being able to secure
her release. If Capt. Crafts had had
the authority he would have arrested
the procurer.
To Superintendent of Police Camp
bell the girl said that she ran away
from school and found employment in
factory at Paterson, N. J. After
working there a few weeks she, in
company with another girl, visited
New York City. She made the ac-
quaihtance of strange young man,
and was led into Bayard street den
where her ruin was accomplished. AZ
ter two weeks stay in the den she
made her escape and fed to Paterson,
where she again obtained work in the
factory. She had been work only
few days, when the keeper of the Bay
ard street den discovered her where
abouts, and induced her with four 9TH
er girls to go with him to his place in
New York City. All of the girls be-
came prostitutes. Mary said that she
visited Brooklyn in company with the
mistress of the den, and they both got
drunk. The Superintendent directed
Capt. Graf to do all in his power to
secure the girls retention until her
parents were communicated with.

VALUE OF IRON.

-FOUR CENTS AN AVERAGE RATE
RANGE OF PRICES OF IRON FOR
NINETEEN CONSECUTIVE YEARS.
Pittsburg Dispatch.
The Iron Age has been led to make
some Investigations relative to the
price of merchant iron at the two CEN
philadelphia and Pittsburg-in
order 10 ascertain what has been the
average ofprices for number of years.
We are aware that such figures must
be used with extreme caution, and that
any reductions made from them wi |
be at best only indications. There are
many circumstances and considers- =
tions that existed in these years that
must be known to give the figures
their exact value as indications. The
years 1855-73 have been chosen, as they
seem to constitute naVural period !;
1866 marks the beginning of a period
when merchant iron went below three
and half cents, or $78.40 per ton,
which price has been assumed as about
the average limit of the advance just
made 1873 marks the beginning of a
similar period, SO that this space of
nineteen years fills out a complete cy-
Gle of prices. We also have complete
date of prices for these years.
According to the very complete ta-
bles Of bar iron in Philadelphia pub
lished in the report of the s cretary of
the American Iron and Steel associa-
tion during the first eight of the nine
teen years, 1855. 1878, the average price
of iron for the whole year was below
81 cents per pound, or $7S.40, though
at some dates the selling price was
above this. For the last eleven years
of this period it was above 81 cents.
The average price for the first eight
years was S66.46, for the last eleven
years, S94.36.

THE Ponca Indians had ninety six

Portable houses to live in, instituted
schools and built school honses. They
were industrious, thrifty and were
rapidly acquiring civilized habits. BY
a barefaced and outrageous swindle,
their lands were taken from them,
their property destroyed, and against
their wish and in flagrant violation of
their treaty rights, they were driven
away into barren aud malarious res

perished miserably from exposure and
starvation. Only q miserable rem

to raise cattle, horses, pigs-all kinds
of stock that we would build houses

We kept our word we built houses,

A WOMAN WHO HAS NOT WALK.
ED EOR TEN YEARS RUNS AWAY
Mrs. George Chenell, of Claire, who
has been an invalid for many years
and bed ridden all the time, disap.
peared from her home Saturday about
midnight. She left a note to her hus-
band stating what she proposed to do,
and making certain bequests. The
strangest part of the whole affair is
that Mrs. ChenelI has not walked a
step for the past ten years. As soon
as her departure was discovered, ac-
tive and thorough search began, and
by noon Sunday the excitement ran
very high. Many thought she had
drowned herself in the river, and its
bottom was dragged with graphing
rocks. Some limited at foul play, and
the husband, all this time frantic
with grief, was by force prevented
from destroying himself The search
still continued, and every nook and
corner in the town and adjacent woods
were visited by anxious and excited
crowds, to discover the whereabouts
OF the unfortunate woman. About
four p. M, she was found in the back
part of Mr.. Carlton's lot, about a
quarter of mile from home, lying
down, secreted as well as she could be
by the tall weeds and bushes. Here
she must have remained fifteen or six.
teen hours, with only a bed quilt as a
covering and protection from the win
ter's blasts. She ia minus one slipper
and otherwise very thinIy clad, but
was living and partly conscious, and
at last accounts was doing well.-[DA-
