Stealing a Ride.

William Martin, of Seuthington, tried to catch ride on a freight car leaving on the Canal road about 9:2O last evening. He jumped on the rear car, and it was supposed he was struck by the switch. Near the Web. ster street crossing the conductor found him on the platform moaning He was taken of the train, and police officers took the man to the hospital. He was not seriously injured, the principal injuries being on his legs below the knees. He will probably be discharged from the hospital in day or two.

CHEEKY CHEEK.

dren and Elopes With a
Prostitute.

One of the most cruel cases OF dc>crtio n
ever recorded i'm this city was reported this
morning AT police headquarters. Sew
eral DAYS ago teamster named Check,
who resided near the Scdalia brewery,
in the northern part of the city, deserted
his wife and three little children, and in
company with woman of doubtful charac-
ter, left the city, not leaving his family a
penny with which TO buy the necessaries
of lie.
The deserted wife. on learning of the
doings Of her husband, and being in bad
health, took Ia her bed, and is now living
at the point OF death.
The person who reported the matter to
the police did SO for the purpose of finding
out il the city could not do something for
the family of the inhuman brute, as they
are indeed, i'm sad condition, being out
of both provisions and fuel, and in need of
q doctor.
On investing the case il was found that
tho city could do nothing, a. the house in
which the family live is just outside of the
corporate limits. Neither could the city
physician attend To the wants of the sick
lady, nor any of the citv's charity fund
be expended for the purpose OF furnishing
them with provisions or fuel. Officer
Kelly called the county physicians attcn-
ton to the matter, and il Is thought that

The Old, Old Story.

He knew how Mentor and home
looked at this season Of the year. AS
he lay on his couch of suffering he saw
Gods sunlight bathing it with food
of golden beauty. He saw the vistas
in the green woods, the yellow fields
and the emerald uplands on the south
the elms and chesnuts around his
home that home itself, with its wealth
Of tender associations, its household
gods, his treasured books. He heard
the tones of wife and children, and
others near and dear; the words of
neighbors who honored and loved him !;
the neighing Of his horse; the lowing of
the cattle; the chippering of the birds
He loved his Mentor home. He had
gone forth into the worlds fierce con-
fict, and had won the laurel, but
when he felt the cold hand of the de.
stroyer, his old Mentor home came
hack To- him. How many like Garfield
are giving up their very lives in chase
for fame and power, only to find on
nearing the goal, the black chasm of
death before them. Garfeld's life is
but repetition OF other great mems
lives. The hand of the reaper fell. as it
