Curing Thacksray of Stage Fright

That the inexperienced actor should
tremble nightly and exhibit all the symp.
toms of nervous terror before going on the
stage is regarded by those versed In hislrionic
matters as promising token of
coming triumph; but that the
same rule holds good of public readers and
reciters might perhaps have been doubted
were 1t not that Miss Kemble vouches for the
fact that William Makepeace Thackaray him
self, on the occasion Of his first delivery OF
lectures on "The Four Georges" was despite
bis great reputation and undoubted genius,
absolutely unnamed by fear his audience.
This accomplished lady happened to look in
al Willis Rooms just before the hour fixed
for Thackerays reading, and to her surprise
she found the eminent satirist standing .sIike
forlorn, disconsolate giant" in the middle
Of the room, staring about him. "He held
my hand like scared child" writes Miss
Fannie Kemble, "crying, 'Oh, don't leave
me! am sick at my stomach with frightp
But said I, 'Thackaray, you must not stand
here. Your audierce are beginning to come
in,'" and so saying Miss Kemble kindly led
him out into the retiring room adjoining the
lecture hall. The novelist had LEFT the
manuscript Of his lecture on the reading
desk, and Miss Kemble volunteered to recov-
er II for him, and in 30 doing scattered the
leaves all about the floor. In the greatest
confusion and distress she took tho wreck Of
his manuscript back to Thackeray, thinking
that she had done some irreparable injury.
The real kindness Of heart Of "Mr. Tit
marsh" showed itself at once. "My dear

MISS MILDLY MORGAN.
The Famous Live Stock Reporter in st.
Paul.
Minneupolis Tribune.

Most newspaper readers have heard Of Miss
MILDLY Morgan, the live stock reporter of the
New York Times who, when she came into
New York seeking employment on news
paper and being told there was only enc
place to be had-that Of stock yard reporter
--resolutely took up the work and made q
great success Of 1t. Miss Morgan has for q
few weeks been travelling in the southwest
ern and western stock regions and yesterday
arrived In st. Paul on her way to the Vel
lowstone country to inquire into the cattle
business of Montana. At the Northern Pa
cifc Offices, whore she called on business re-
lating to her trip, she appeared something
like the humorous idea Of . strong. minded
woman in dress and manner, but bright as
we'll IS energetic and earnest. She appears
from . short conversation, to be almost en-
thusiastic in pursuit Of the knowledge she Is
seeking, but withal practical aud methodical.
She will 60 ~ far west on the Northern Pa

She will astonish the cattle men she meets,

FORTUNATE FANAriCIsM.
Why Arsbi Failed to Cut or the Fresh =
Water supply.

Nep York Tribune.
The special correspondent Of the London
Telegraph tells the following story about
Arab, and declares that It IL authentic !:
When Arabi had constructed the big dam
across the canal at Tsi-el-Kebir which was 10
complete the Arabian stronghold, II was con-
sidered absolutely necessary to obtain the
approval Of holy Bedouin recluse. Arabi
conducted the sage everywhere; showed him
the Christian, on whom he invoked . curse;
led him over his works, displayed his army,
and demanded blessing on his arms. When
they came around to the wonderful dam the
saint frowned ominously and cried:
"What, my son, is this?"
"Holy father" replied the rebel chieitsin,
sqhis 10 to cut OF all tho water supply from
the odious enemy"
"This may not be-" retorted the recluse,
sternly; "knew that the hateful Christian,
though lsmentably benighted and besotted,
and grievously arrogant to boot, is, after all,
m erring child Of Allah. Water 10 given for
all creatures, He hiss right to water like
the rest. Open way thst at least some Of
the precious stream may moisten his parchsd
throat"
And actually It was found, on arrival at
Tstel-Kebir that, reluctantly enough, no
doubt, Arab had ebeyed the sage's mandate.
Through the center Of the dam IN opening
had been made, abost six feet wide, by way
Of which the muddy stream was percolating
slowly. The English had found the wator
seanty and foul, but, thanks to the Bedouin
sage, the supply was not totally cut of.

A Feminine Trait.
Quiz.


A mans foes are those Of his own house,
hold, and the keenest enemies Of women are
women themselves. No one can inflict such
humiliation on q woman rs . woman can
when she chooses, for If the art of high
handed suubbing belongs to men, that of
subtle wounding is peculiarly feminine, and
Is practiced by the best bred of the sex.
Women are always more or less antagonis-
tic to each other. They are gregarious In
fashion and cumulative in follies, but they
cannot combine; they never support their
weak sisters; they shrink from those who
are stronger than the average, and il they
would speak the truth boldly, they would
confess to radical contempt for each others
intellect, which, perhaps, Is the real reason
why the sect of the ''emancipated" COM
mands so small following. Half a dozen
men advocating emancipation" doctrines
would do more toward leavening the whole
bulk of womankind than any number Of
first class women. Where they do stand by
each other II Is from instructive OF personal
affection, rather than from class solidarity.
and this is one ofthe most striking distinc-
tions of sex. aud one cause, among others,
why men have the upper hand, and why
they are able TO keep 1t.

Improved Treatment of D,phtheria.

In com mmunication to the Chicago Medi-
cal Journal, DR.. Magill describes method
Of treating diphtheria, from which he has re-
ceived better results than from any other.
He uses an ordinary hose, from three to five
feet long and about one inch In diameter.
One end Of this Is placed over the spout of .
common teakettle, into which has been put
half gallon of water and half an ounce of
carbolic acid; the kettle is then placed on
the stove over good fire, and when the wa
ter reaches the boiling point, the free end Of
the hose Is carried under q. blanket thrown
over the patients head. The room must be
closed. In short time the patient will per-
spire freely. II presevered In At short inter-
walls, the breathing becomes softer, and pres
emily, after succession Of quick, expulsive
efforts, the patient throws of a coat or tube
Of false membrane. The acid vspor seems
to prevent reformation Of exndations. Aico-
hol and suiphate Of qninine are used in con-
function with the acid, for their supporting
properties

POETRY.
FALLING LEAVES,

Where the welcome snow-drop peeping
Whispered Spring awakes from sleeping,
Where the primrose, maiden pure,
Nestled mid her leaves secure;
Where tho violet, sweet and shy,
Biossomed meath kindred sky;
Where the fush Of summer noon
Brooded DER the rose Of June;
Where, in the golden autumn weather,
Fruit and flowers grouped together,
Rich in royal Natures dress
Glowed in lavish loveliness;
Everywhere In dale and wood,
Der blighted bloom and withered bud,
While the gray cloud DER them grieves,
Gather fast the falling leaves.
Where young pulses sprang to life;
Where the bold will dared the strife;
Where sweet first love, trembling, ,sh rinking,
Present, Past, and Future linking,
Wrapt two hearts In fairy dreams;
Where true ssuPs nsble schemes
Scared to happy thoughts Of giving
To the poor and lowly living;
Where in the dazzling distance she
In fancy richest boons bestowing,
Luring youth DER gulf and bar,
Farnes proud shrine shone fair and far;
While Fate looks on, and Time bereaves,
Hopes fall as falling leaves.
Yet meath each russet rustling heap,
Roots form fast, and blossoms sleep,
Sheltered in the kindly mold,
From the bitter, biting cold,
All the flowers we prize SO we'll,
Hide till April breaks the spell,
And calls them forth to glen and plain,
To prank the joyous earth again.
SO, oh weary heart and head,
Mourning for the changed or dead,
Trust and wait. Our Master rhyme
Says, "My faith is large in time;"
To some benignant purpose yet
Work wrong and loss and grief and fret,
Patience her perfect end achieves;
Trust In the life beneath the leaves.
All the Year Round.

TWO RICH WIDOWS.
T5o Wealth Of the Reflects Of T. Stewart
... and Commodore Vanderbilt. ..
Neso York Letter.

Nep York Letter.
Mrs. A. T. Stewart, who Is the richest
widow In the Union, Is q native Of this city,
and was born in humble life. Her brother,
the late Charles Clinch, considered himself
fortunate to get place In the Custom House
whree he gradually became an expert, and was
retained longer than any other official. She
married Stewart while he was keeping
petty retail store, and they began house
keeping under very humble circumstances.
When Stewart got up in the world one Of tho
indications was found In the fact that he and
his wife took board at the Astor House,
which then was the finest hotel in the city.
Mrs. Stewart now occupies the grandsst pri-.
vate mansion, with but one exception, In
America, which, during her visit to Saratoga,
is in the care Of family Of trusty servants.
The apartments for the latter are more ele-
CANT than anything the Stewards had during
the first ten years Of their married life.
Mrs. Stewart has for many years been
member of St. Marks church, but she was
kept on such . short allowance by her hus-
band that she could not assist In any Of the
benevolent operations Of the society. Her
parsimony At last became proverbIsl, but It
Is now evident that It was solely due to the
hard. hearted husband. {, Since his death she
has shown some libsrality, though BY no
means to that extent which might have been
expected. Mrs. Stewards, property Is esti-
mated at SIC, 900 900, not including tha pal
ace she occupies, which cost 81 Goo 900.
The taxes on the building were last year
$1,000, and this year may be q tri6e less.
Mrs. Stewards pastor (Rylance) recently
visited England, Of which, country he Is .
native. He could there mention the remark
able fact that . lady in his congregation was
engaged In building cathedral as 1 nonu-
ment for her husband. Such things hsye
