NEW YORK CLOTHING house. Point PIgosont n Vo y

looking up the case they learned
Of the talk about the new appren,
tice. The letter from Ohio was
opened and found to be a pathetic
congratulation and hope that Mr..
and Mrs. Hammond would be hap.
py.
Saturday was sidney's last day
in the West Side car.shops. The
police had interviewed q young
man who had roomed with him for
a few weeks, and he told a strange
story. During all that time the
suspected lad had been the last to
retire and always extinguished the
light before retiring. The two oc.
cupied seperate couches, and the
second lad was ready to swear that
10 all that time be never once
awoke up in the morning without
finding Hammond up and dressed
and ready to leave The room. This,
taken with the other rumors, led
the police to take charge Of the boy,
aud since Sunday night the people
about the boarding house have seen
nothingof him. The story as Civ.
en- above was told the police by
Miss Hammond herself. 1t is said
that the girl is not under arrest,
but that the police have simply
taken her in charge, and have com.
municated with her parents in
Ohio, and that she will certainly
return to them.
Every one who knew her as "sid.
ney Hammond" and several who
have been on quite intimate terms
with her, are loud in their praise
ofthe girl in boys clothes. II is
asserted that she is a person Of
great natural strength Of character,
and that she has passed through
her strange adventures with unsul.
lied reputation.

In Boy's AtIIre.

Chicago Tribune.
The romantic three.year mas
qucrade, in male attire, ofa girl o.
fifteen has just come to light here
In the summer of 1882 Sylvia
Hammond, the daughter Of a we'll
to.do farmer near Springfield, Ohio
after having been corrected by her
mother for some fault, bought a
suit Of boys clothing, donned ii
and ran away from home. AT Ma.
rion, Ohio, she adopted the name Of
Sidney Hammond, and hired out tC
keep tally at a railroad gravel pit
Eight months later she went tc
Canton and obtained asituation on
a dairy farm. Within a short time
she was promoted to a driver Of a
supply wagon. She was also ad.
mitted TO the house as one of the
family. A daughter of the house
became attached to her, and, fol
fear that the attachment would re-
suit in detection, "sydney" quilted
the place and came to Chicago.
She brought letters Of recommen.
dation from the pastor of the church
and Superintendent of the Sunday.
school, which che had regularly at.
tended, to the Young Mems Chris.
tian Association here. Through
their inauence'a situation in the
West Side street car barns was
procured. For five moaths she has
watered horses and led them back
and forth between the cars and the
barn. During the last few weeks
Superintendent Lake gave her a
place in the company's paint
shops, furnished her with cloth.
ing, and rendered her other help.
Recently the suspicious of sever.
al persons were excited. The boy
was often seen crying, and other
little incidents excited comment
among the other painters. II was
often remarked that "when Ham.
mond had his coat of and his trous.
ers in his boots he looked like a
woman" All this would have led
to no startling discovery had NOT
the dairyman's daughter in Ohio,
who had learned sidney's address,
begun writing 10 him. Thinking
to ettle this troublesome feature Of
her adventure, the pretended lad
wrote her that he was married,
and about the same time changed
her clearinghouse. He left in.
structions to have his mail sent TO
the new boarding place, but soon
afterward, when a letter came 10
the old place, it was not sent to
Sidney, but was given to Foreman
franklin Of the paint shop, where
the lad was at work. The boy
heard that the foreman had q let.
ter for him and asked for it,
franklin, who had heard the talk
about the boy, but did not think
that there was anything in it, said
jokingly that he had letter for
Mrs. Hammond, and, showing Sid.
uey the envelope, asked il il was
for "him." Hisevident embarrass.
ment and confusion set Mr.. Frank.
lin TO thinking, and before be had
reached any conclusion the lad
made complaint that twenty dol
lars had been stolen from bis room
just after pay day. The complaint
was taken 70 the police, and In

A new use for the frog has been dis.
covered. A medical correspondent OF
the London Lancet says that, finding
the treatment of granulating wounds by
skin grating is in country practice
liable to fall into disuse, through the
unwillingness of patients to part with
the little bit of skin necessary, he has
lately been induced to try experiments
with other substances as substitute
for human gratis. As the outcome of
these experiments, he finds that bits of
skin from decapitated frog make gratis
which admirably answer all purposes,
forming source of supply always at
hand in the country, except during the
winter months, and being easily applied
on account Of their uniformity in thick
ness, and necessitating no pain to suf-
fering humanity. The skin of single
frog yields gratis for an enormous ex.
tent of surface, and preserves its vital
ity so long that, if the patient is at
distance, the portion of skin required
can be carried by the surgeon in his
pocket for an hour or more without in
jury, provided it is wrapped in water
proef tissue to prevent drying.

sent number Of Puck shows the lately
arrived birds in a dolorous condition, clad
in wooden aud chest protectors, and sit
ting woefGlly around a kitchen siove. close
to which they hold up their claws for
warmth. The funny picture is very time
~ and fitting in such Seasons as this. It
sometimes seems hard to say, so far rs
the weather is concerned, whether it is
May or December. 1t seems rs if some
body had found the Northern Passage and
left the door open. Day after day, and
night after night h eleaden skies and cold
stormy winds return, night irosts are not
unusual, until now, in the latter part of
May, people are still keeping up fires and
wearing their winter clothing. Il is n
common tendency to think that every
winter or summer is unparalleled for
something, when an o~yerhauling of the
records would show it b be nothing re-
markable; and If some such examination

AT TIE Congress Of Churches in
Hartford, Conn. the subject Of discussion,
last Thursday, was "The attitude of the
secular pres in America toward religion.
DR.. GLADDEN., of Columbus, o., read an
interesting paper on this subject, closing
it with a censure of the influences which
he said the counting rooms exercise over
the editorial rooms Of newspapers To
enforce this %censure, he said. News
papers generally are owned by men whose
principal purpose is to mako money out
Of them, and hssein lies their weakness
as instruments of righteousness In
this the reverend gentleman gave express
sion to mere cant. Neither newspapers
nor pulpits can live on wind. The clergy
man has to look out for his salary, and
the newspaper publisher has to look out
t5r his advertisements and subscription
list Dry goods stores and livery stlbles
are owned by men whose principal object
is TO make money out Of them, and not
especially to make them Instruments Of
righteousness. Cases have been known
in which even preachers have left one
field Of labor for another where the salary
was higher, but where the chances Of
being Instruments Of righteousness
were not so numerous and the necessity
for righteous fundamentally was less nr-
gent The dollar viii lead even a clergy
man from one path Of duty to another.
That the counting room debases the
character Of a newspaper, lessons its in
huence and renders its power less in its
natural and chosen field of usefulness. is
not true, any more than a statement
would lie true t the effect that plentiful
and wholesome food impairs a clergy
man spiritual gifs and weakens the ex-
%altation Of his faith.

AFTER the most remarkable contest
ever known in the history Of this country,
Gen. John A.. Logan was yesterday re-
elected to the United States Senate from
Illinois. He received the l03 votes
necessary to elect, the whole strength of
his party. Before the result Of the ballot
was declared his opponents, who had
voted for Judge Tree, made an effort, by
changing their votes TO Fargell, to draw
of Republican votes sufficient to elect that
gentleman. But that scheme failed, as a
number Of Democrats threatened to
change their vote to Logan if their friends
should persist in pushing Farwell. One
Of the leading Democrats. Mr.. Barry,
sayin publicly hat if any Republican
was to be elected it should be John A.
Logan, and he thereupon changed his
vote to Logan. This settled the matter,
and the speaker finally announced the
election Of Logan.

IT IS the Republican Chicago Herald
that makes this point-whieh is worth
remembering:
"When the federal Offices were used as
spoils Of the party in power a tic like that
which recently existed at Springfield
would have been broken in short order by
peddling out offices to some weakened
member or members Of the party not ir
possession ofthe patronage. Nh. Glove
land, however. has persistently refused to
interfere in the Illinois contest, and the
result has been that the Democratic man
ayers have had nothing to give or to
promise, and they have been in that re-
spect as helpless as their adversaries.
Those Republican papers that have been
trying to make It appear that the change
of postmasters at Chicago was made for
the purpose Of aiding Mr.. Morrison in his
