That was enough for Dawson. The
words of Domingo Joe's pretended song
came to his ears as death knell. He
turned pale, then red, threw down his
cards and said: Take it all. squeal."
As Reddy raked down the whole pile
he threw glance around the circle of
pale and silent spectators, and sang as
though the words of Domingo Joe just
reached his ears:
And the other fell in, too boys,
And the other fell in there, too.

Nurses For the Poor.

The general public Is perhaps not aware of
q quiet work of bene6cence which has gone
on In New Haven for more than year among
the sick poor. 1t often happens that for one
reason or another II ia necessary to keep q
sick wife, husband or child in the family
home. however wretohed that may be, and
the emergency that presents itself under these
circumstances Is the greatest need for skilful
nursing combined with the greatest difficulty
In securing 10. This difficulty has lately been
met and overcome by the training school for
nurses, which moro than q year ago set apart
an experienced nurse for the work Of nursing
the poor In their own homes free of charge.
No one who has not seen the working of this
system can appreciate the comfort which has
In this way been brought into the midst of
poverty and suffering. The nurse has gone
a. true missionary to mind and body and as
Q sort of board of health besides, looking after
cleanliness and ventilation, nursing, cooking,
sweeping. and day after day Frightening
dreary hearts and homes. Men, women and
children have been cared for in this way in
the more than Eve hundred visits made by
these nurses, for which no pay has been re-
ceived. Shall this work 60 ont It rests with
the public to say yes, for the heavy demands
Of the hospital and illness among the nurses
have, during the past year, prevented the su-
perintendent from answering calls to over
two hundred paying cases, which calls afford
school. The treasurer IL without the funds
needed for the ordinary running expenses,
and the missionary nurse has been with.
drawn. If anyone will lend hand in this
emergency Mrs. George E. Day, 1875 College
street, Will gladly receive contributions.

SHIELDS FOUND GUILTY.

Tho Jury out over Three Hours-Tne
Prisoner Breaks Down Completely
Hc Will He Sentenced To-Day.
The arguments in the case OF the state
against Thomas Shields, who is charged with
granddaughter, were made yesterday. State
Attorney Doolittle, after opening for the
prosecution, was followed by Attorney Case,
who made one of his characteristic appeals
In behalf of Shields. He assailed the Con-
solidated road and the State for trying, as he
said to convict an innocent man to prison,
when the facts of the prosecution were only
theoretical. He pictured the accused as
poor laborer, and asked the jury If they real
ly could, In their hearts, fined him guilty
when there was nothing to prove the charge.
State Attorney Doolittle closed the argu-
ments. He spoke vehemently, and he placed
no credence on the testimony of the laborers
under Shields, who said they left the track
In good condition before the train came
along. He said that the evidence on the part
of the defence that six trains had passed over
this particular spot without accident was
conclusive that there was negligence, and the
man to blame for 1t was Shields; for right
after Shields and his gang of men went to
work of the frog the very next train that
followed was derailed, because the work had
not been properly done. There was negli-
gencs on Shields' part. 1t was also his neg
ligence that the first train was not tagged.
Judge Torrance gave his charge at three
O'Clock, and at 3:15 the jury retired.
It was Eve O'Clock when the jury returned
and asked that portion of the testimony be
read over. Attorney Case was willing, but
State Attorney Doolittle objected, on the
ground that 1t would establish bad prece-
dent. The foreman Of the jury then asked
that portion of the judges charge be read
again, which was done. Then the question
was asked His Honor whether man after
having done his work properly as he sup
posed, could be found guilty. His Honor
answered that If the man had done his work
In good faith and supposed 1t to be all
right, that he could not be found guilty.
The Jury then retired again.
It was thirteen minutes of seven when the
jury came In. Everyone In the court room
expected that there would be disagreement.
When the foreman announced the verdict as
guilty, those in the room gave sudden start.
Shields heard the verdict pronounced and
then broke down completely. Judge Tor
rance will sentence him this morning. He
went to Jail last night, as his father was not
present to get his bond renewed. The maxi
mum penalty is ten years in prison.

The Life and Charities OF Mrs. Moses
TAYLOR who II worth s4s.oOo,Ooe.

lFrom the Brooklyn Eagle.l
Meyer has there been such universal church
going in New York as during the present Sea-
son. I saw lady Ia black step out of hand
some mourning carriage In front OF St Thorn
as'chureh last Wednesday afternoon, and some
who, with Mrs. w. q. Vanderbilt, shares the
honor of being the richest widow in America.
She 10 q member Of the Presbyterian church,
but is subject to no bigotriss and finds plea
sure in occasional attendance upon Lenten
services in Episcopal churches. Church go-
ing il one of her favorite pursuits ct all
times, and down at Long Branch she has .
ministers to her spiritual needs during her
sojourn. The chapel cost her 81, 900, is at
tended by quite large congregation OF the
local Presbyterian and is the centre through
which she distributes her many besutiful and
lavish charities. 1t was q great surprise to her
upon her husbands death to find herself 20
rich woman, for he never talked to her about
his business, and though she knew he was
q wealthy man..shs had formed no calculation
as to the amount he was worth; no one, in
deed, not even his executors, had credited Cd
Taylor with more than half . dozen millions
at the most, and the surprise of the latter was
great on the appointed day when they and
the widow went to open the doors OF the par.
ticularly solid vault which the old man had
built into the wall of his Office.
"The innermost compartment was large
enough to hold certificates OF stock and the
| like securities without folding. There was q
great stack of these papers lying neatly on
top of each other, unwrinkled and increased
They represented Taylors investment rail
roads, banks, insurance companies, deeds Of
real estate and every sort of sound financial
venture. The widow did not comprehend
the meaning of this great pile of documents
but the executors looked at each other with
pleased significance and set about making an
inventory, jottlng down figures on the back
of q card and announcing 1t in awed tones
| to the widow when this pleasing task was
done that she was the sole possessor of for
tune amounting to $40, 000, 900. She bore II
with that meek and gentle resignation Of
which even the worst Of Us would be capable
under similar circumstances, and many I'M
fortunates have since had reason to be CRATE
full that this great sum fell into such discreet
and charitable hands. Mrs. Vanderbilt Is al
80 faithful church goer, having pews II
several different churches one Of her favoritt
places of worship being old Trinity.
