The spawn or charity.
[Chicago Tribune,


There is no city which in proportion to tho
means of its liberal citz MS does more for tho
dependent classes than Chicago. One of tho
consequences is that the more done tie more
there is TO do. the more helped the more there
will be to help. The recipients of all this
charity grow by what they feed on. Tie
more dispensaries the city establishes the
more patients appear - get medicines and
attendance The more hospitals the more
cases of Iirurable and chronic diseases dis
cover thenS lives for treatment The moro
orphan asyiums the greater the flock OF the
fntherl,~s. The more "homa," of one kind
and another for old men, old women, errinS
this and errinS that, the more OF tho home
les, and errns are there to fill them
These facts, which could be culled from tho
experience of every one who officially or pri-
vately has undertaken to lend hand to allie
vate tho suffering that 81 distleSses the hut
name, are of deep significance. They Illus
trate the forces thai are tending to an un-
wholesome growth Of our cities. The great
est burdens OF charity which fall on Chicago
do not come from within itself. 1t is not the
deposit OF its own enarvated and disnteSrat-
ing elements that furnishes it with the social
slit. All the country around Chicago for
hun llr,ls of miles dumps its resitunm here.
Til, IS not peculiar to Chicago. 1t is so in all
large ctios--LonIon, Paris, Berlin, New
York, Boston, cincinnat-as it was OF old in
the case of Rome. But ii is startling to find
this phenomenon of o.d civilizations so soon
manifesting itself with the sharp edge it has
begun to exhibit in this new country.

Story OF a Fancy Head"

Pardon the telling Of an incident from
private life, which is certainly droll enough
to be worth repeating, certain gentleman,
whose fortune has been made in railroad
stocks whose name is familiar all over tho
country, and who has snowy establishment
not ten miles from Boston, took unto himself
to console the loneliness of a brief widow
erLood a second wife, one of Chicagos fair
daus shtels. Mrs. A., u lady Of the neighbor-
hood, went to call upon the bride, and in
LAPSE Of the rather dragging conversation
made some casual remark upon an oil paint
ing of female head hanging upon the par
lor wall. as it u portrait of one Of your
husbands family" she asked. II seem to see
faint likeness" "Well, not exactly one OF
his family" the hostess r.plied. at was
picture of his first wife once, but it wasn't @
very good likeness, 50 we had the eyen
changed AMI feather put in the hair, and
keep it for fancy head"

RAILROAD TRAVEL IN AFRICA.
Sketch NV Guy dc Maupnssant or
July Trip from Algiers to Oran.

Translated for N. @. Times Democratl
1t is one days journey by rail from Alg1er'
to Oran. First ono traverses the paln on
Mitidj dja-fortile, shady, populous. ms ls
always shown to the stranger i'll proof OF INC
fecunlity of our great colonial possession
Certainly Mitidja and La kabylie nre twc
splendid regions. La Kabyle is now more
thckly settled than is the Pas-de-Calais, and
Mitidja will ere long be in the same prosper
ous condition.
The train rolls on the cultivated plains
gradually disappear; the land becomes naked
and red-the veritabe African land. The
horizon widcns-a sterile and burning holi-
zon. We follow the immense valley OF CheIir,
shut in between desolate, gray and sun
scorchcd mountains-without one tree, With
out one blade of grass From place to place
tho mountain-lnc lowers and opens, as II
only the better to betray the hideous misery
of soil devoured by the sun. An
ilnmeasurable level stretches unbrokenly
away, the almost invisible line OF lofty
ranges lost in vapors Aud here and thero
on the barren crcsts above tho valley there
are occasionally to be seen big white things
quito roand-that look like enormous eggs
laid there by giant birds. Those ore mara
bouts built for the glory of Allah.
In the harsh yellow plain clump OF trees
Is occasionally visible; and one sees men
standing there-s,lnburnt Europeans, very
tall--who watch the fleeing trnn: and hard
by number of little tents, that look liko
bed of big mushrooms, whence bearded SOL
dicrs come ont to look at us. This is an aSri-
cultural settlement protected by troops of the
line.
rta,t t,,t nfcl, at w.
dery-looking land, one scos very far away
SO far away that ono can just barely distln-
guish it--a sort of smoke a light cluut that
appears Mt once TO rise toward tho SKY and
nevertheless to rush over tho ground. 1t is
only a horsman at full gallop;-the hoofs OF
his steed stir up the fine and burning sand;
and each of those far off moving clouds now
visible indicates the presence Of rider,
whose white buruous ut last becomes visible.
We stop at Oran for dinner.
Oran is n real European city, commercial
c;ty-rather spanish than French, and not
particularly Interesting. One meets many
han lsome girls in it's strc"ts--lVory SAinnei.
black-cyei, and with admirably white teeth.
When the weather is very clear, it is said you
can see in the far horizon tho coast-llnc OF
SpaLi--thCir country.
No sooner have YOU set foot upon this Afrl'
can soil than q strange desire comes upon
you--a desire to so farther much farther,
into the unknown south.
The heat is intolclnbr. 1t is impossible to
lay ones hand upon any metallic object,
even inside tho railway car. The water IN
the gourds scorches ones mouth when one
tries to drink; AMI tho air that rushee IN
through the window socln- lilio the breath OF
n furnace. At Orlcansyie the Thermometer
in tho railway station marks upwa.rd OF
ninety degrees in the siale.

Sunday in Chillu;.hla i, hol lay, a time
OF rest and amusement. The shops are open

stantly filed with sroliny or lounging peo-

daring the day the bells of that tine-staine'l,

that his peace is made AMI that the rest ct
the day is his to enjoy. If there is q bull
