The Drunkard's Children.

Alas how often are the children of the
drunkard trained in sin! How unspeak-
ably touching was a case which occurred
in Lambeth the other day! A married
woman of t~wenty-six and her child were
taken up for stealing drinking glasses
from a tavern; and, in court, the little
child ran toward her father, who, burst
ing into tears, said that he worked
hard, but all in vain; his wife drank all
his earnings, and brought him into debt
right and left. Even if they be not
trained to sin, how fearful is the lot of
the drunkard's children from the fatal
faint in the blood, the awful hereditary
craving for alcohol, which either drives
them into the same terrible destruction
as their parents, perpetuating the crimes
and miseries CT the world, or else in
wolves the necessity of a lifelong help
less struggle, lest the wild beasts of
temptation should leap out before them,
and hurl them down with its fatal
spring-a struggle noble, indeed, and
heroic, and requiring az much virtue
and resolution as would make a dozen
ordinary saints, but one which makes
life one awful and continuous martyr
dom, almost from the cradle even to the
grave. CANON FARRAR.

"Iwant them for baby" she ventured

"What does baby want of 1owers"
"Nothing; she's dead" and the little
face went down with tears in the big,
dark eyes.
The clerk slipped in white roses,
more yellow, and more green, and when
the girl looked up q pretty wreath was

Utilizing the Ugly Pug.

A young lady whose father is one of
the wealthy men of Philadelphia, went
abroad last summer in company with
two relatives. They sailed from Phila-
delphia and returned thither. They
allowed their general baggage to be in
spected without protest. The young
lady carried a diminu,ive pug dog in
her arms. The animal was particularly
ill-natured and vicious, but the young
lady appeared to be very fond of her
brute and carried him in her arms MI
the time. He wore a blanket and had
O collar around his neck.
I got close enough to see that the
blanket was a mass of expensive lace
tackled on to the blanket, to enable her
to avoid duty on it, and that the collar
was literally studded with diamonds.
What could we do3 If we had held
the dog there would have been a great
howl over the indignity, and the girls
father had influence enough to have US
all discharged. We consequently al

blanket and his 100000 collar, to pass
free Of duty.

HE LOSES HIS LAWSUIT.
A Reminfsccnce Of n Terrible Fire In
which 100 Persons Persisted.

A letter from Milwaukee, Wis, says :
In the County I curt Judge Mann made
Il decision sustaining the demurrer made
by the Newhall House Stock Company
in the damage suit of John Gilbert
Donohue, and the case is now thrown
out Of court and ut an end. This ac-
ton is the last act in the terrible
tragedy of the burning of the Newhall
House three years ago, when 100 people
lost their lives. A few hours before the
fire there was a merry party in one of
the rooms on the fifth floor. John Gil
bert, the actor, whose real name is
Donohue, who was a member of Minnie
Palmer's company, then playing in Mil
waukee, had been married the day be-
fore to a beautiful girl in Chicago
named Gertrude Sutton. The actor
and his bride hurried back to Milwau-
kee to join his company. During the
performance on the night of the fire the
bride. sat in a box. and after the curtain
had dropped on the last act there was
a midnight wedding supper, attended
by a host of theatrical friends, at the
Newhall House. The merry party did
not break up until nearly 8 o'clock in
the morning.
An hour later Mrs. Gilbert was lying
dead, with many others, on the side,
walk, near the hotel. Her husband,
MANNED and bleeding, was being cared
for near by, his life almost extinct He
was taken to a hotel, and for days lin
gered between life and death, and con-
stantly moaning and asking for his
young bride. Mrs. Gilbert was taken
with the unidentified dead to the
oNrc,, Hor ro1fhar ~ IN Hfs1pro,
kee, and the scene was a heartrcnding
one when she visited the morgue to
search for her child. The bodies were
sible to identify them. Mrs. Sutton
could not find her daughters body I'M
til John r. Rodgers, who went to the
morgue with Mrs. Sutton, identified the
body by the underclothcs, which bore
the initials of Miss Sutton.
In time John Gilbert recovered. It
was weeks before he was told of the
fate of his bride. A few months after
the fire he brought suit for $40, coo
damages against the owners Of the
house, asserting that they were criminal
IL negligent in the care of their guests.
The suit dragged along until the other
day, when a technical point was de-
cidcd against Gilbert, and the case was
thrown out of court.
J. F. Antisdel, the lessee of the hotel,
left Milwaukee soon after the fire. He
is now keeping n small hotel in Michi,
gan. The site of the hotel remained in
ruins until n few months ago, when it
was purchased by a life insurance com
pans, and OF it n grand edifice is now
going up that will cost almost a 81, 900,
600. Gilbert has married again and has
played once or twice in Milwaukee since
that dreadful night.

simply made a short cut across the semi

vict on the bushes M than a hundred

credible to those who have never seen
it. l cannot explain what it Is that the
flying man, clad and shod as a hundred
others, fed on the same food, chained
daily to the same chain, and sleeping in
the same hunks at nights imparts to a
yielding twig touched by lis clothes so
that it attracts a hound fifty yards
away. But it certainly does just that
The last test was now coming. We
were moving toward n squad of ~convicts
at work in a cotton field. We had
sent the fugitive convict through
this squad. We had then made them
walk in a double circle around him.
They then crossed and recrossed his
tracks, many of them wearing exactly
such shoes as he wore. One hour later
the hounds struck this point. There
was not an i%nstant's pause. There was
no deviation, no let up in the pace.
Through the labyrinth of tracks the
hounds went, as swallows through the
air, hurrying inexorably on the one
track they had chosen.
The end was now near. The convict
having run his race, was seen leaning
against a tree and watching the hounds
plunging toward him. "Won't he
climb the treeW I asked. "No; the
hounds arc trained to simply bay the
convicts when they come up with them.
Otherwise the convicts would kill
them" BY this time the hounds had
sighted him. They halted about twenty
yards away from the tree against which
he stood and baycd him ~furiously.
Pretty music they made, and not deeper

n 'possum tree. Mr.. Williams called
them off, and the convict came forward.
''Dem puppies is dom mighty we'll,

swung by on his way to the stockade.
These dogs are not bloodhounds. I
doubt if there is a bloodhound in
Georgia. though two are reported near
Gainesville, descended from a pair
owned by Col. jeff johnson in the days
of slavery. The Oldtown dogs arc fox
hounds of the Rcdbone breed, trained
for several generations to hunt men.
They are never tempted by other game.
They are neither fierce nor powerful,
and are relied IN solely to trail the con
vict and lead his pursuers to his lair.
