CHICAGO, May 4.-The b. Il o. freight

to headquarters at Baltimore, and the men
will wait for an answer until Friday. The
sentiment Is against a strike. The Michigan
Central men resolved to wait until Wednes-
day for n definite reply to their demands.
This action was taken after the local agent
had informed them that the company was
not prepared to give an answer but was
willing TO pay rs much as other roads.
The Illinois Central freight handlers
listened to an address from General Super
intendent jeffrey last evening, in which he
said it was impracticable for the road to
grant eight hours, for It's freight business
could not be done In that time. The men
conferred few minutes and decided to
quit work which they did. They express
determination to stay out until they have
secured their demands.

A FEMALE SURGEON.
Extraordinary Career OF Mime. DIR, Ribart
in Egypt and Cochin China.


The death is announced in Cochin China
of Nine. DR.. Ribart, female surgeon of
remarkable skill, and whose career was
very extraordinary-an experience that no
other woman has ever had. Beginning rs
waitress in little drinking shop of the
Quarter Latin of Paris, she passed while
still very young through the usual expert
ence of a Persian grisette, and became con-
nected with q medical student who fire.
quented the shop. Her instinct was ire
sistible.
No sooner did she come in contact with
his books and instruments than she fell
upon them and literally deyoured the
knowledge they contained. She awaited
herself of his teachings, too, and drew from
him everything he learned, so that by the
time she reached the age OF 70 she pre-
sented herself for examination Is surgeon,
and passed the ordeal brilliantly and tri-
umphantly. She soon recognized the field
that Law open to her in the Egyptian ha-
rems, to which male surgeons were not adj
mitted, and where women suffered unspeak-
able tortures for lack Of proper attendance.
At Cairo she speedily established large
practice, and had every prospect OF doing
well, but her habits of dissipation had been
formed early-had become rooted and were
uncomfortable. She plunged into incon-
ceivable debauches, such as would not have
been possible anywhere else, and the his
tory of her life there would not be admit
ted to the pages of even clroniQue scan
daleuse.
Her career of vice finally ended in an
Egyptian mad-house and her sutferings in
that horrible place were as great as her
| excuses had been. After six months of
this severe but salutary regimen she recov-
cred her mind but never forgave her
heartless and disreputable Levantine
| friends who hastily thrust her out of sight
and mind into the horrors of an insane
asylum.
Her career in Egypt was over. She cauld
not return to Europe, and nothing was left
her but the French possessions in Asia.
| She made her way out to the French col
ony in Cochin China. Here her talents
and beauty, which, despite the life she had
! led in Egypt and her sufierings in the mad
| house, had never failed, won her instant
recognition, and she was in great demand
among women.
The old queen mother at Anam had
been blind for years, and hailed with de-
| light the prospect Of relief held out to her
| by the French physician. Nine. ldbart
died suddenly the day before the operation
was performed, the result, as supposed, of
the strains upon her health which her
| Egyptian experiences had entailed. She
| was still young and had prospects of re-
deeming the past, for her talents in her
difficult profession were great and I'M
doubted. Probably no European woman
ever knew so much of the inner life of the
harem in the East and its dark side as this
ex-grisette.-N. T. World.

Stranger than Fiction.

A singular occurrence, says the Nevada
City Herald, happened in the family of A.
Isoard, of this city, last night. The family
were seated around the supper table, all
being present except Maxine, the boy art
list, who had not yet returned from his les
son. Presently he came into the dining
room in rather hasty manner, and took
his seat at the table without speaking to
anyone. Mr.. isoard noticed Maximes be-
hayior, as not exactly in keeping with his
usually polite and courteous demeanor, and
in pleasant, but reproving way. said,
Good evening, Maxine" The boy felt
that he was reproved and replied good
naturally, excusing himself. One of his
brothers spoke up and said, jokingly,
Max, don't you know that papa is going
to leave us?" Are you, PAP" said Max
ime, stopping in his meal and leaning over
toward his father. Yes, my son." said
the flther, wishing to help the other boy to
carry out his joke " am going to France.
| have received letter telling me that my
brother is dead, and left great deal of
money, and l am going for my share of it. /"
After conversing in this line few min
utes, Maxime's anxiety was relieved by
telling him it was only joke.
Immediately after supper Mr.. Isoard
started down town to his place of business.
Upon entering his store, he was met by his
brother-in-law, Mr.. Michel, who handed
him letter bearing the postmark of his
native place in France. He glanced at the
address, saw that it was not i'll the hand
writing of his brother, but in the hand
writing of a sister who was living with
him, and exclaimed, My brother is dead"
1t was true. The letter informed him that
his brother had died at his home on the
18th of August.
The news was altogether unexpected by
him. He had not heard that his brother
was sick, and had no reason to think of his
death. The last letter received from him
informed him that he was in his usual
health except that he was suffering slight
" from rheumatism.
