The Quiet Quakeress.

fhiladelphiA fress-
The tales recently published In the
PYsss of the heroic conduct Of ladies
when in danger from robbers, remind me
Of the courage of quiet old Quaker
lady, In Burlington, of which heard
years ago. She and younger sister lived
together In one of the pleasantest streets
Of that little city, no one occupying the
house but themselves and their one
servant. The two ladies had spent
IN evening with O neighbor, and
returning to their home before 10
o'clock, one of them passed into the
kitchen to give some directions to the
maid servant there, while the elder sister,
lighting her candle, proceeded directly
to her bedroom upstairs. Opening the
large clothea-press there to put her bonnet
IN itA gocustumBd piacs, phe thought
she saw something more than usual
in the far corner of the oapscious closet,
and taking the light in her hand she at
once began to investigate. Parting the
garments that hung upon the pegs she
found herself confronted by man, who
had concealed himself among their ample
folds. "Why what in the world lie thee
doing there ?" inquired the surprised, but
not at all terrified, old lady, and as the
intruder, apparently as much astonished
by her GOODNESS as abe by his presence,
made no reply, she continued "Thee
knows thee has no business ia my closet
among my gowns. Come right out, this
very minute, aud go down stair, and out
of the house, and never let me see thy
face here again. The man, seemingly
nonpluased by her fearlessness, meekly
obeyed without word, and abe lighted
him down stairs, admcnishing him all
the way, and finally fastening the front
door OF the house behind him as calmly
as IL closing II upon friend.

BERNIE, june 2l.---The Bundesrath, in
reply to inquiries made by the National
Roth denies that there are any grounds
for the complaints made by foreign
powers that Socialists are allowed too
much freedom in Switzerland. II declares
that Switzerland will always fulfill her
international obligations, but holds that
the duty to watch the intrigues of reVo-
lutionists does not devolys upon Switzer-
land exclusively on account OF her
neutrality, but is incumbent upon every
state It says the negotiations between
Switzerland and powers will continue,
and ends by giving assurance that the
Bundesfath will properly safeguard the
dignity and interests of the country and
will not consent to divide its authority
over the residents Of Switzerland and

SIcux CRY, IA, June 2l.--This city
was visited by destructive storm Of wind
and rain yesterday. The wind blew at
the rate OF so miles an hour and the rain
fell In torrents. A section of the viaduot
of the new cable line on jackson street
was washed out and filed with mud.
The new pontoon bridge sustained heavy
loss. The heavy northwest wind COM
bined with rushing waters snapped the
cables holding two sections OF the draw

carried out. Sixty boats were carried ont
and soon broke apart. Huge piles of
drift wood are stacked against the up

will amannt to several Thousand dollars

AT Riverside Park several houses were

A letter from Florence says that the

NJ, 4. Hammond MaEon's Mephlstoph-
eles, from Faust" MIR. Mason is Bos-
ton man and pupil of Bouguereau aud
Tony Robert Fleury, and is consequently
most ardent advocate Of the French
school of painting. In early winter he
took studio in Florence, receiving no
one but his model, as he was anxious 70
see what he could do unassisted by the
criticism Of fellow artists. No one knew
the subject he had chosen until his cards
were issued for a reception at Villa Troll
lope to see Mephistopheles; and although
people had known he had been very much
occupied all winter, yet they were UMPIRE
pared for the magnitude Of his work. We
found his satanic majesty IS dark as the
Bible paints him. He was represented
as standing In the portals OF the inierna!
regions, with the glow of its fires all
through and about him: his white teeth
shone; his arms were triumphantly
crossed upon his breast and he stood as
if saying, Here am at your calllD He
looked fierce, heartless, defiant and vim
dictive, and in size was Q giant. The
picture was suitably framed in ebony,
with dash OF guilt. The many Bog

the size of the painting when say that

the salon, the frame having to be brought
in in sections in order to get IL into the
house. In the evening q strong light
from O reflector was thrown upon the
picture and number of the young peo-
pie danced. The motion OF the floor
caused the canvass OF the picture to
trembls and gave Mephistopheles the ap-
pearauce of shaking with hearty laugh
