FOR WANT OF BREATH.

A poor city babe lay dying one day
On n ragged and dirty cot
Lay quietly gasping its life away
In a basement squalid aud hot;
o Godl for a sniff of cool, sweet air
Just one for the child and its mother;
For the heart that blceds so helplessly there
And the babe that must lie there and smother.
The farmers boy Is a cheerful sight
AS he sits on the floor in the sun:
How he doubles his fist In mimic might
How lusty his grief and funl
Oh full Of life all day is the breeze
From the fields of the farmer coming.
For It dallied awhile mid leafy trees
And awhile where bees were humming.
The isherman's boy Is At play CO the sand
How sturdy and plump be grows!
There Is strength in the grip OF his chubby hand.
And his lips are red rs rose.
OH sweet are the breezes born at sea
And Graded In white foam flowers
Sweetly cool when waves arc like grass on a lea,
Cool and keen when a tempest lowers
The babe Ga the tenement house Is dead
With none but its mother TO weep.
Then lay it TO rest In that narrow bed
Where the sleepers breathe not IN their sleep.
OH breezes that wander at viii Away,
If ashore or where sea scud is lying.
There are thousands of poor city babes today
That are smothering fainting. dying

DIED FROM A FLOGGING.
How Charles Schultz Kept His wife
Covered with Bruises.
New York Specially

Emclia Schultz, who was i'm life del
atc.looking little woman, lay dead last
night at No. Eldridgc street, and her
husband, Charles, sullcn, stolid, mid
dle-agcd tailor of powerful build, was u
prisoner at Essex market charged with
her murder. The story of the crime be-
gins with the marriage of this couple
about six years ago. Each had been
married before aud each had three
children. schultz did well ut his bus
iness and his domestic relations were
pleasant for two years after the marriage.
Then the husband began to display such
an ungovernablc temper that tile wife
was driven to drink and the children
were Obliged to leave home and went to
live with relatives. Schultz remon-
strated with his wife for drinking, and
when that failed began abusing her.
Schultz became enragcd at his wife
about "a week ago, because she was slow
in waiting on him, and picking up
knotted rope he beat her with II until
she sank insensiblc to the floor. When
she regained consciousness she was
compelled to take TO her bed Sunday
last found her growing worse and Or.
Haupt was called in. He pronounced
her In "a dying condition and notified
the police, who in turn notified Coroner
Levy.
In small room on the ground floor,
separated from the tailor shop by n
small partition, the coroner found the
unconscious woman on little cot, Her
head was bandaged up, both eyes were
blackened and hei face, hands and arms
covered with bruises. Her body was
also covered with bruises made by the
rope. About the waist was u belt of
bruises that looked like black band.
Nothing could be learned from the d wing
woman, SO the coroner turned to her
young daughter, Minnie. who was the
nurse. She said she had seen Schultz
beat her mother repeatedly, and that
relatives had endcavorcd unsuccessfully
to get the husband and wife to separate.
The neighbors told the coroner of the
mans brutal treatment of his wife, and
some admitted that they had seen the
husband beat her when she was drunk
The coroner placed warrant for the
husbands $ arrest IN the hands of Captain
Cassidy, and 1t was served upon him
while at breakfast yesterday In q restau-
rant. A few hours later the woman
denied that he had assaulted his wife
and stated that she had fallen downstairs
while drunk.
Al Essex Market schultze's wife's
brother, Albert Maher, Of No. lO6 East
Third street, and her brother-in.law
Louis ]. Zettler,- appeared against the
, prisoner. The latter said that he had
not seen Mrs. Schultz since her marriage
without blackened eye or bruised
face. After brief hearing Schultz was
remanded to await the action OF the
coroner.
