In one of the characterization tracts
written by H. d. Dudgeon, we read
that Jenner, the originator of vaccina
tion, practiced the art upon his own
son, first with swine-pox when he was
a year and a half old, and later with
other viruses. The son was always del.
ioate in health, had defective under
standing, and died when about twenty
one years old with pulmonary consump-
ton. 1t is also stated that King
George III and the Commons granted
Jenner 100000 after he had given
them the positive assurance that all
who subjected themselves to vaccina-
tion should be perfectly secure from
death by small-pox.-Dr. Foote's
Monthly.

Far up the pure white heights of womanhood
She stood in starry light serene and calm;
A lily on her breast, and in her eyes
Adeep, sweet peace; in sun and bloom and
balm,
Her pathway stretched across the cloudless
day
80 Love, she smiled, 'you led my feet this
way"
II.
Low down in bitter dusk, in starless night,
A woman with red rose in her hair,
Told the wan moments off in bitterness,
Dazed with the depths of her own dun
dispair,
Along her pathway shown no beacon-ray--
80 Love-" she cried, 'you led my feet this
way"

A Mob on the Ball Grounds.
From the Philadelphia Times


A mob of noisy rOughs from Kensing-
ton were so enraged at some of the de
cisions given by Mr. Butler, umpire of
the game of base ball between the Ath-
1etic and St. Louis mines yesterday af-
ternoon, that they created riot after
: the game and threatened to kill the UNI
pire. When the game ended the hood
luIns rushed over toward Butler.
The players, however, surrounded
and escorted him to the dressing room.
The mob followed, hooting, yelling and
throwing sticks and stones. Mr. But
ler and his friends did not dare to come
out. They remained there an hour or
two and the roughs waited for them
The umpire aud his friends finally
pushed their way through the crowd,
but the struggle was so severe that Mr..
Butler took refuge in the house Of Mr..
Stewart, Custom House official, who
lives near by, where he took supper.
The mob meantime, crowded the pave
ment and invited him to come out and
sing songs for them, rumor having it
that he had at one time been an opera
singer W hereas he is an old BALI player
and the present manager of the Union
Square " Lights o'London' company.
In the struggle to reach d carriag" Ball
Player Latham was severely hurt and
the drivers lips were badly r't by "A
flying brickbat. The umpire reached
the Continental Hotel uninjur"d.

RUNS DOiMgs.

Yesterday afternouu William Iianar
Il young man, was arrested by ulficei
Green, on complaint of Mrs. Elizabeth
Russell. 1t seems that Hamer married
the complainant sFep-daughter, but for
some time he has been so disSipated
that he has failed to contribute to the
support of her and her child.
They became several months in ar
rears with their rent, and upon the wife
finding that the landlord was about to
execute on them, she had thom removed
to place of safety yesterday morning,
during the absence of her husband.
She then took her child and went to
the house of her step-lnother. When
the husband returned and found the
house empty, and his wife gone, he
went to Mrs. Russell's and demanded
the child. She told him the child was
all right, when he cursed her and struck
her, and she sent for an officer and had
him arrested
At the hearing this morning John said
that it was a family quarrel that had
been going on ever since he has been
married. He admitted being drunk
yesterday, and said he did not know
was done. The Judge imposed fine of
Us and costs and held him in 500 bail
to keep the peace.
Michael Gallagher plead guilty to be-
ing drunk, and was fined 30 cents and
costs.

THIRD EDITION,
The Mem she Girls Like.

The Boston girl likes man of mind,
whose name is in the magazines. Pro
lessor is the title she adores and she
rather despises money. She admires
lean men with thin features, who live
on Graham waters, and eschew tea and
coffee. And she prefers eyeglasses to
the brightest eyes. If her admirer
takes her to lectures so darkly deep
that she cannot understand word of
them, she is entirely happy and asks
NO more amusement.
The Philadelphia girl requires of the
gentleman she respects ANY warmer
feeling she thinks vulgar-that he shall
never touch beer, nor smoke cigars ;
that he shall attend church regularly,
and be socially "well known" Her
greatest happiness is in taking tea with
his ancient aunts and uncles, who en-
tertain her with genealogies longer than
chose of Genesis. And she thanks fate
chat they have been brought together,
If she discovers that his mothers hus-
hands Observation-Disclosures was a
forty third cousin to William Penn
The Virginia girl admires gentle
manly man," who wears a large mus
t2che and rides well. She requires
great courtesy and many compliments,
and immense Difference to "the ladies. "
And he must be of Il first family. TIC
De perfect, he must also be a colonel.
The Cincinnati belle adOres, of all
things, a man with a voice, who is good
at making stump speech. and expects
10 be Congressman. If he can hold

coast, and takes her to hear all the
prima-donpas who come to town, she
will say eyes" when he pops the ques.
ton. She rather likes him to he man
of the people, if he is capable of making
his own way in the world.
The Colorado belle likes stout man,
not very young, with loud voice, a
high color, and talent for getting on
She does not object to whisky and
cigars, if he only owns plenty of mining
stock. She never asks about his grand
father, but she expects him to be gene
rOus ; and her idea of a t, ken of atftc-
tiOn is diamond-the bigger the better.
The New York belle at present makes
the young "dude" her ideal. She likes
b have the square shoulders and the
dash and imprudence all to herself
She does not demand pity, virtue or ac-
complishmentS of her ideal-neither
genius nor business talent. She simply
desires him to be the undonbted heir to
somebody's millions, and able to assure
her lifetime of utter idleness. Her
ideal used to be a count, or marquis,
from that vague whereabouts, " Eu-
rDpe," but he has turned out badly so
often that he has gone out of fashion.

Tie Water Commissioners,

The regular weekly meeting of the
Water Commission was held last even
ing, with President Paynter in the
chair. No business was transacted,
and after an informal exchange of opin,
ion on the situation, they adjourned. -
The members seemed very hopeful of a
solution of their difficulties through
the stand taken, by their direction, by
Water Conn. ission Auditor Ball, and
even ventured to smile srnole as they
thought how they had outwitted Coun-
ell. They probably changed their
minds this morning, when they aScer-
tanned that the money to pay the en-
ployeeS, and keep the department run
ming had BEEN obtained outside of the
Union National Bank. The Commits
sion and Boss" Mclntire may have
still greater cause for elongated counte-
nancrs after the next meeting Of City
Council.
