ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN MILES OF

manufacture, Mason q Hamlin have reached
No. 10000. Arranged in a line these would
reach 113 miles, or would fence the railroad

popularity OF American organs, but it illus

FOURTH LITTLE GIRL.

Around the corner there fiercely flew
A savage dog of yellow hue,
That fixed his teeth in the tabby cat,
That put her paw on the old gray rat,
That out of dark hole popped his head,
And crept along with cautious tread
And a cruel look, where the grass was thick,
To quietly pounce on the peeping chick,
That, standing on its tiny feet,
Was crying for a crumb to eat
On beautiful summer morning.

little he came down the ladder, while the
men each devoted one arm to pulling and
the other to keeping in readiness to stab
him or pound the lite out of him if he
came too sudden, and if the gun missed
fire. When about half way down the
ladder he made spring and darted into
his travelling crate, where he was imme-
diately secured. The captors were a
grateful and proud body of men when
they realized the danger was over. and
the arms of the man with the gun were
fairly stiffened by holding the weapon so
long in one position. Outside people

Slave Selling in Tangier.
TRAFFIC IN HUMAN BEINGS CARRIED On
OPENLY in the AFRICAN CITY.

Sunday, learned, was the day on which
these human chattels were generally disposed
of: so on the first Sunday after my arrival in
Tangier | went for a walk, and presently
found mvself in the crowded little market.
Just ahead Of my conductor was tall, tur-
baned Arab, with fine face and long gray
beard. whom recognized as one of the auc-
tioneers who patrol the High street of Tan
gier carrying pieces of calico. horse trappings,
knives, or other articles on their arms. and
crying the price at which they are offered to
the public. He was moving stolidly along
through the crowd Of market people, who
were all too busy to spare so much as
glance at him. My guide pointed to him.

| demanded. Viola, monsieur, viola!' he
repeated, pointing again to the auctioneer,
and then | saw walking YEARLY behind him,
pausing when he paused, moving on when he
advanced. looking with eyes of pathetic
apathy upon the busy throng around her.

with uncovered face, clad in a single scanty
garment of white cotton. She was black,
but not uncomely, and she had evidently
been carefully prepared in the bath for the
ordeal of this morning.
There she stood, alone in the crowd, friend
less, detected, travel-worn, hardly to be dis
tinguished in appearance from the others
girls around her. and yet deprived of the first
of all the rights which our human nature
claims for itself-a slave without even the
commonest of the privileges of humanity.
The little girl looked up with dull curiosity
visible on her features when she observed nv
European dress. Then she looked away with
the same sad face of hopeless detection. l
asked her price. "Thrty-five dollars (seven
pounds). was the answer. Seven pounds as
the price for this little bit of humanity , She
had been brought from Soudsn, the auctioneer
told me. She had been captured there by a
slave dealer, who carried her TO Mogador
and passed her on to another dealer, by whom
she had been taken by Tangier- She was a
pagan, absolutely ignorant. but she was

he turned away disappointed, finding that no
