There are no doubt greater cruelties inflicted
oninsaSe persons outside of asylums than within
their walls. Two instances of such cruel treat
mentofpatients in charge of private persons, ex-
tending over term of many years, have recently
come to light in Pennsylvania. There is the
less reason for this inhumanity because the
State provides hospitals where all such persons
can receive humane and proper treatment. The
PENNSYLVANIA State Board of Charities asks to
be informed of such cases by persons having
knowledge of them, that it may take steps to
investigate them. 1t is a request that should
meet with attention. Persons having knowledge
of such cases in other States should also take
steps 70 inform the proper authorities.

The Ladies' Pride.
Mrs. L. K. Williamsen's New Millinery

Mrs. L. e. Williamsen's New Millinery
Bazaar.
Saturday night will long be remembered
as a gala night, in the neighborhood of
Commercial Avenue and Eighth Street,
it being the opening of Mrs.
L. E. Williamson's handsome mil
linery establishment. Several weeks ago,
Mrs. Williamson rented the whole build
ing formerly occupied by Taber Bros, and
at great expense has had the entire
building handsomely fitted up and decora-
ted, the papering was done by B. F. Blake,
and is certainly credit to that gentleman.
The large show windows have been furn-
ished with elegant French plate glass, in
one piece, costing one hundred dollars each,
and the shelving, counters and show cases
are neat and attractive. The floors, up
stairs and down, are covered with elegant
Brussels aud Tapestry carpets; the upper
floor is divided into parlors, bedrooms and
dining hall. The window-hsngings, furnl-
ture, ETC., being characteristic throughout,
showing both cultivated taste and a
lavish hand in expenditure.
The stock consisting of millinery, dress
goods and notions, is large and varied;
common school hats, in different grades up
to the most elegant and expensive Partisan
bonnets; delicate laces, as fine as spiders
web; French embroideries, real lace
fichues, bright-hued plumes and ribbons
and fine jewelry combined to make
fairy scene on Saturday night, which was
enhanced with sweet music within and a
voluntary serenade without, from brass
band
As we roamed through the spacious apart
ments viewing the brightly Illuminated
bazaar, with it's bevy of handsome lady at
tendants, and crowds of gentlemen
as well as lady visitors, we could not but
commend its mistress for her untiring de.
votion to business, in spite Of many draw
backs, and her indomitabe courage and
ambition starting as she did with only her
brain and two hands as capitol

being scared while enroute for home by
a passing train on the s.. Louis and Cairo
road, ran away and tore things up pretty
much before coming to a stand again. The
man was thrown IRON the wagon and stun

hours. When he revived he didn't know
anything at all about the runaway; but
fortunately wasn't hurt.
Sunday morning the St. Louis and
Cairo train bound ran into herd of
cattle near Beech Ridge and seriously in
jured several of them. Two fine steers,
which belonged to a negro named jim Ed
wards, since died. Edwards feels the loss
very severely, for the steers were his prin'
cipal stock-intrads in the working of
small patch of ground; and he does not en-
terrain any hope of receiving pay for his
cattle from the railroad company, for, he
says, "dey nebber pays nothin' fur what
dey kills up in de country"
We are assured by Barton's Free
Press, which, after having giving ample
proof of its return into the heart of the
Republican camp by partaking heartily
of protracted feast of which that large,
black carnivorous bird, belonging to the
family Corvida and sub-family Corvin@,
commonly called "Crow," formed the lead
ing dish, has again come to be regarded as
sort Of political hymn book for the
"loyl" laymen and mouthpece for the
"machine" of the Republican party of this
district, that "Capt. Thomas will formally
enter the field next Thursday" and that
"the race will then become interesting"
In order that the race may be VERY inter.
esting, we should like to have a series of
joint discussions between the rival candi-
dates; and we would advise the Free Press
to give its champion good grooming pre-
paratory to the contest.
Sunday white man came here from
Charleston, Mo-, accompanied by his wife
and child, the latter about six months old.
After wandering about a while the hus-
band deserted the wife, leaving her on
Commercial Avenue without a cent of
money, no food and no personal effects that
she could dispose of it to obtain any. The
poor woman applied to Chief Myers in her
distress, and he saw that she and the child
we're temporarily provided for Yesterday
the man (whose name, the way, is John
S. Linsey), was arrested and brought into
court upon the charge of desertion, but as
the wife was not particularly anxious to have
the recreant husband punished for desert
ing her,-seemed, in fact, to be rather in
clined to be rid of him entirely-he was
given a chance to make his escape. He
took advantage of the chance, and, under
the impression that the officers would soon
be in hot pursuit, and that he would be
severely punished, he scampered up Rail-
road Street at lively rate. The Chief
took up collection for the woman and
got enough. money to purchase a ticket to
Dexter, Mo-, where her father Jas. Made
vile, lives, and to leave her $2.65 over in
cash.

The Holy Cross.

Only those who have travelled in the
Rocky Mountains can have full con-
ception of their magniicence. Only by
beholding them can the full extent of
their splendor be realized. We need
not 90 to Europe to behold some of the
greatest works of creation, for in our
own land are wonders which rival in
grandeur the glories of the Alps.
The Alps and the Rockies are, of
course, not really rivals. Each has its
own points of beauty and sublimity,
and the sight of the one can only in
crease the desire of the visitor to behold
the other.
But those who have seen the Garden
of the Gods, the Royal George, Veta
Pass, Toltec Gorge, Williams, Platte,
and other canons in Colorado, may be
pardoned if they think that they have
looked upon the perfection Of mountain
splendor.
The progress made by railroads
during the last three years has rendered
accessible many points of interest and
beauty that could be reached before
only by long and wearisome journeys
on horseback and in wagons.
One of the most remarkable points
in Northwestern Colorado is the Mount
of the Holy Cross, about which little
has been written. This mountain is
nearly three miles high, very rugged
and barren. Away up above the great
gray rocks, above the lofty pines, amid
the barren powders, the Holy Cross
lies outlined, on summer days, beneath
the blue sky. The mountain derives its
name from this cross which is formed
by the deep snow lying in two depres-
sions nearly at the summit of the mount
ain; these depressions, or gulches, are
so formed by nature that they cross
each other at right angles. They are
very deep, and become filled with snow
during the winter months. In the sum-
mer the snow melts from around the
gulches, and leaves the great white
cross distinctly revealed against the
gray rocks.
Under the light of full moon, in
which all the splendors of the mount
ain are enhanced, the Holy Cross lies
cleaning in its snowy purity, and
awakens in the beholder's heart
thoughts of that blood stained cross on
Mount Calvary upon which our Saviour
died. Even the rough class of men
found in this newly settled part of Colo
RADIO regard the Holy Cross with kind
of awe, and | have heard of devout
Catholics bowling themselves in rever-.
ence before it.
The cross is not visible in the winter,
when the whole summit of the mount
ain lies buried under many feet of snow.
1t is, indeed, a singular work of nature,
and well worth the long ride you must
take to either of the points from which
the finest views of the cross are to be
had. YOUTHS Companion.
