A Csmsly Woman whe Was y Case Of
Nothing But Drunk.
As an EVENING WORLD reporter was passing
Forty-eighth street he saw q crowd collected
around something or other.
He pushed his way In, and saw o woman
lying fat on her back on the sidewalk. She
was q comely woman and her hands, which
were stretched out ut her side, were very
white. Her hat had fallen of and the
Bobby" had placed II on her breast. The
draggled, broken feather stood up in an anus
and had been shattered in a fight.
A policeman stood indifferently at the
woman's side. twirling his locust sand occa-
sionally hustling the crowd along.

What is the matter with the woman ?"
asked the reporter.
shes paraly zed, =" said the cop.
Why. did she have q fit here }"
She's drunk, dead drunkl" returned the
policeman, with some contempt. II got
her up as far as here from Forty-second
street, and here she dropped and can't stir.
She's q fne.looking woman, too" the officer
added, with that keen appreciation Of
police of the metropolis.
Are you going to take her of in an ambu-
lance ?" said the reporter.

What il the matter with the woman ?"
asked q lady on the outskirts of the crowd.

That's all only drunk" supplemented
the policeman with professional Indifference.

Opening her eyes, she looked yacantly

We laid her in the grave and planted lovely
flowers upon it. The sun may rise and set
and the flowers blossom and fade, the snow

Trade with q Margin.

The Street Dealer In Frankforts Has a
Trade with a Margin.
The hot-corn men, who were to be seen in
such great numbers around New York and
Brooklyn q few weeks ago, have disappeared
from sight as completely as if the earth had
opened and swallowed them up.
In their places another merchant has ar
rived, who bids fair to be a greater success in
business, If he can stand the cold weather,
than the poor hot corn man was.
Reference is a to the man who sells
Frankfort sausages. In many of the streets
little stands may be seen, stocked with o tull
supply of these juicy edibles.
There is q good profit in the business, too,
for o man who Is gifted with a good pair Of
lungs and whose stand Is on q busy street can
earn from $3.50 to $5 per night.
There is no chance of losing, except on
fuel. and as this is cheap 1t isn't worth men,
tioning.
The sausages cost about IA cents q pound,
rolls 80 cents a hundred, and q small amount
in addition is needed for salt, pepper and
mustard.
At five cents O sandwich, the restaurateur
realizes about 100 per cent. profit.

THE QUESTION OF DIVORCE.

The PIarisees also came unto him, tempting
him, and saying unto him, is it lawful for y
man to put away his wife for every cause
Matt. xix,s.
THIS question (as the word ''tempt" i'm
plies) was beset with many difficulties
1t had given rise to decided opposition of
opinion between the two most important
and hourishing Of the rabbihie schools
Hiilel with his school explained the Mosaic
Law in the sense that man might ''di-
vorce his wife for any disgust which he
felt towards her. even, as the celebrated
r.. Akiba venturcd to say, if lie saw any
other woman who pleased him more:
whereas the school Of Sliammai interpreted
it to mean that divorce could only take
place IN eases of scandalous unchastity.
In those corrupt days the vast majority
acted on the principle laid down by flillel.
While polfgamy had fallen into discredit,
they made a near approach to ii by the
ease with which they were able to dismiss
one wife and take another Even Josephns,
a Pharisee of the Pharisees, who on every
possible occasion prominently lays claim
and religions man, narrates, without the
shadow of an apology, that his first wife
had abandoned him, that he had divorced
the second after she had borne him three
children, and that he was then married TO

A Cg.ERGyMAN's ESTIMATE OF MRS
CLEVELAND.

Il observed three things about Mis-.
Cleveland, said a Philadelphia pastor,
who had just returned from the conference
of tie Evangelical Alliance in Washington
81 sat Just behind her during the closing
meeting Friday night, and | noticed. first
that the pretty brown bonnet was not one
of the prevalent four story basement
pattern: secondly, that the three diamond
rings, also mentioned in the newspaper de-
seriptions Of Mrs Cleveland s toilet, were
not worn upon the hand with which she
covered the brow during prayer time: aud
the Third fact / observed was that just
after Thane Mjier, the godly and eloquent
blind preacher Of Cincinnati, had conclud-
ed a most touching prayer for the guidance
and welfare Of The President and the help
meet whom God had given him, two
bright tears coursed slowly down the
cheeks OF the first lady in the land These
three observations Of mine convinced me
first. that MIS-. Cleveland was more
thoughtful of others than is the average
theater- goer; secondly. that she is less ford
of displaying her jewels than are many
ladies in my ewn congregation; thirdly,
that she is a woman of vastly more depth
of religious feeling than are many of those
whom it is my duty to pray for. =
