LIE Sueur Sentinel: Two little girls
the writer and others saw lying on a
bed in New Ulm on August 18th. the
next day after the Sioux Indian out
break at New Ulm, with their heads
cut and SOULS partly broken. who had
been left half dead by the Indians and
were afterward rescued by whites, are
now married women living at New Ulm
and one of them entertained on Satur-
day some of the heroic defenders of
that town at the time mentioned. The
girls were but little more than infants
then.
The foregoing no doubt refers to Mrs.
Jos. Gales and Mrs. Wenzel Schotzko,
the latter of the Union Hotel.

The improvements that the Chicago
& Northwestern Company are making
in their line between Mankato and
Mankato junction, and in their yards
at Mankato, have given rise to rumor
that the company will extend their line
from Mankato to this city. and thereby
make a saving of five miles aud avoid
the snow drifts that cause so much
trouble and expense each winter. This
is an old story oft repeated, and the
improvements now making in and a.
bout Mankato are no doubt a matter of
necessity.

while many Of our people are yet snug.
" tucked away in their little beds. the
song of the threshing machines in

hope to enjoy this pleasure without GO

The lost Daughter.

'All these are under two years. SAID
the matron Of the founding hospital,
as she looked complacently around on
the goodly array of babies of all sizes
and complexions ranged on either side
of the long nursery.
There were babies plump and rosy
and good natured, as all babies should
be, and pale, puny little creatures, who
looked as if they We're already disgust
ed with the life upon which they had
entered; black, blue and grav-cycd
babies with eyes of very little color at
all.
1t would seem that the lady address
ed, and who was deslrous of obta lining
one for adoption, would find no diff
Guilty in suiting herself; but either she
did not see what she was in search o1
or was too bewilder ed by so many rlva'
claims to be able to make any choice
Here is a fine boy, said the matron
pausing in front of a black-eyel fellow
who sat on the knee of his nurse, suck
ing his fat thumb.
Yes, but want a girl, blonde
Something like this
As the matron glanced at the photo
graph the visitor handed her, which
was that of lovely child of not more
than two summers, she uttered an ex
clamaton of surprise.
1t is the picture of my little girl.
said the lady, her eyes filling witt
tears, who died IL few weeks ago, an,
whose place I wish to fill, if such ;
thing is possible
We have girl in the hospital ware
who resembles this picture SO strongly
that | should think it was taken for her
Both parents are dead, and so far as
can learn, there is no one to claim her.
The speaker led the way to cheer
ful, sunny room, where on one Of tho
cots a beautiful little child was sleep
ing. The resemblance to the picture
was very strong. and to the bereaved
mother it seemed like revelation from
Heaven.
Lillian, darling Lillian" she cried
bending over her.
The child must have been dreaming
of its mother, for the fringed lids flew
open, revealing eyes blue and wondrous
ly bright, while the little arms went NJ
with an eager tlutterlng
'Mother.'

child. Have you forgotten your twin
sisters, who bore the same name, aud
who was declared by the family for
marrying beneath her, as they call it?
She was my wife and the mother Of
your Lillian; for have not come to
disturb the relation that has SO long
existed between you, but to see that she
is not defrauded of womans dearest
right-th right to wed the man who
has not only won her heart, but is wor-
thy Of it. There is many millionaire
who is not as rich in all that consti-
tutcs truo manhood as Charles Hor-
low. My gentle Lillian was nearly
rt-broken by the harsh degree which
separated her from her early friends
Give not the child the same bitter ex-
perience, bnt let her 60 to the man of
her choice with your blessings as we'll
as mine
That the blessing Of her adopted par.
ents followed Lillian to her new life
and her happy home we may be sure.
Mr.. Haven is very happy in the happi-
ness Of his long.lost daughter, who Of
ten declares that she has two rapas,
and she does not know which she loves
best.

THE MARCH, or THE CHILDREN

List to the sound of the drumming
Gavly the children are coming!
Sweet as the smile Of fairy;
Fresh as the blossoms they carry;
Pride of the parents who love them;
Pure as the azure above them;
Free AS the winds that carcss them;
Bright as the sunbeams that bless then,
List to the voice echoes ringing,
Swcctcr thnn birds they are singing:
Thoughts that to virtue invite them
We'd unto airs that delight them;
Truths that their future will cherish,
Soul-plantcd, never to perish.
Only ln senses completcr
Heavens choicest music were swcttcr.
Virtue unconscious, and pretty,
Walks through the streets Of the city,
Sec the gay bannerets flying!
Muttors and titles undying;
Truths, dearly halowcl and olucn,
Braided in strands that are golden;
Words for the spirits desiring;
Sentences swectly inspiring.
When, in voice of carcssing,
Christ gave the children His blessing,
Twas not for one generation,
But for each epoch and nation,
So through the present it fingers,
Shed from His bountiful fingers;
So unto these it is given
Types of the angels in heaven.

4 MYSTERY

Oh, little flower upon her grave,
wonder if you know
How true and tender was the heart
That turned to dust below?
Oh, can it be the heart is dust
That used to love me so?
Sweet heart and truest, hid away
Beneath the grassy mold,
Though time has crumbled you to dust
The love you knew Of old
Is waiting for the Spring to break
With longing all untold.
The strange and happy Spring of I5caver
When you will live again,
As violcts wake in April days
Beneath the warm, sweet rain,
Oh, arc you sleeping, tender heart,
While seasons wax and wancf
Oh, sleeping heart-oh, heart of dust
cannot comprehend!
l only know that you are true
With love that will not end
Though grass and daisies over ycu
A thousand Summers bend.
So sleep, dear heart, or turn to dust;
Some day the love Of old
In the new life Of Cots sweet spring
It's blossoms will unfold
And then, oh, true and tender heart,
Thy mystery will be told.

She is my own child, was the

had compassion on my loneliness and

Mr.. Howard looked gravely and ten.

Sixteen years ago yesterday, as it
stands upon the records Of Il certain Or
rhan asylum IN distant country, a
lady, young, fair and wealthy, went
there fer the purpose of obtaining a
chill to take the place Of one she had
Just lost. In one Of these wards was a
lovely child, whose parents had both
been killed, as was supposed, in a rail
way disaster, and who so strongly re-
semble,l her lost darling that her heart
went out to it at the first glance.
She took it away with hcr, giving it
her chill's place and name, and her
husband, who was absent al the time,
has never once suspected that it was
not the little one he kissed at parting,
and over whose grave the grass has
been growing tor many year.

A LITTLE HERO,

A sad story Of Il French drummer-
boy is told at Heidelburgh in connec-
ton with the last siege of that city.
The Austrains we're i'll possession OF
the place, and the only means Of at
tacklng them was by crossing the old
bridge over the river Neckar. But the
defenders were we'll prepared for the
attack they placed their cannon i'll
such position that it covered the
bridge and its approaches. The French
planted Their cannon on the opposite
side Of the river, and kept up terri.
Bile fire, but were utterly y unable to dis
lodge the Austrians from their end Of
the bridge. The attackers were deter
mined to take the city, but had no 9TH
cr means of doing so than by crossing
the bridge, and that was swept by the
guns Of their opponents. They made
repeated charges from their side; but
each time they advanced they were
moved down by the Austrian artillery
or repulsed at the point Of the bayonet.
The French band advanced as far as
the centre Of the bridge, exciting the
soldiery with their martial strains, but
were compelled to retreat with the re-
treating men. Again and again the
musicians advanced and retreated with
their comrades, until at last little
drummer buy disdsining flight, mount

although his fellow bandsmen fled with
the soldiers, stood ground manfullv,
