MARRIED "A MISSIONARY.
From Fashionable s"ciety to the
Salvation Army.

New York Press.
Rev. Frederick 81. Northrop and wife
started from Brooklyn last week for
India to engage in. missionary work,
after having spent couple of years
quietly at their home in Wisconsin.
Mrs. Northrop was once the acknowl-
edged belle of Belolt, Wis, and was
wealthy in her own right. When the
Salvation army craze reached the West
she disposed of her jewely and dresses,
and, turning her property into funds,
devoted it, together with herself, to the
cause.
She came to Brooklyn, donned the
uniform of the Salvationists, and la
bored in the slums of the two cities.
She became identified with the Wom-
ans Refuge department, and night after
night, protected from the insults of loaf
erS and drunken men by her uniform
only, she went into the vileSt spots of
vice to beseech unfOrtunateS of her sex
&c forSake life of sin.
Her work was said to be eminently
successful, but the continual midnight
tours told upon her health, and she was
obliged TO give up and return to her old
home. Here she was wooed and won by
young minister, and last fall they
were married.
The Salyatlonists look upon Mrs.
NorthrOp as one woman among thou
sand, and hold that if there were more
of her caliber there would be less neces-
sity for evapgeiists. One of the cap
tainS remarked at a recent meeting that
there are now fifteen girls that she
knew of personally who had been
picked from the slums by Mrs. North
rOp, and who were now leading lives of
responsibility. ave can scarcely think
of her as Mrs. Northrop. We knew her
as Nina Alcan,' she said, land we
shall always remember her as one of
the best and purest, and one of the
most patient girls on EARTH"

What a repulSive-lO looking creature he is,
with his dull mean eountenance, his SLOUGH
ing hat and defiant gait. and the corners of
his mouth stained with tobacco! OF all the
forms of human depravity, there are few
more painful to contemplate than this. A
robber may show some courage and tact;
at least he has purpose in his wickedness.
The rowdy is without object or scheme. an
aimless, wanton, unmitigated fool.
You never see the rowdy alone. He is
too empty and trivial person to find re-
sources IN himself. He likes to be with
noisy crowd of his own kind on corner on
Sunday afternoons, where he can amuSe
himself by staring at ladies going to church.
and hOOting at well-behaved people.
1t is delightful to hear a group of nice
people go singing by in the evening; but
there is no music in this noXiOus character.
The highest flight of his genius is to cut
two sticks and initiate very imperfectly
Brother Bones of the minstrel band. If
ever the rowdy feels the STRINGS of ambi.
ton within him, it is to be an lend man"
of an Ethiopian troupe. But such posi-
ton is far above his talents. An end man
must take pains; must obey his superior
officer; must work in harmony with others.
and according to a prearranged plan. If
the rOwdy could do these things, he were
rOwdy no more.
In 1861. the war came upon us, and every
young man. North and South, was put
upon his mettle and tested. Thousands of
these rOwdies went to the field. We hap
pened to see a whole regiment of them
starting from New York to join the army
on the Potomac, and every spectator might
have thought from their appearance that
they would march to the Gulf of Mexico
without stopping. They proved to be
worthless as soldiers; valiant in charging
upon hen-coOps and pig pens; but in the
field. in the presence of the enemy, the first
to run and the last to rally.
A rOwdy is simply the spoiled child" of
poverty and ignorance. A rich mans son
who is so unfortunate as to inherit dull
mind and low prOpensities, which his par.
ents have not known how to correct. falls
into disgrace, but does not become rOwdy.
A poor mans son of the same calibre. I'M
trained. untaught, INDUCED. becomes a
rOwdy. and after a youth of brawling,
riotous disobedience. develops into tramp
or criminal. Advance.

For The Mirror.
Golden Thoughts.
The test of your Christian character
should be that you are joy-bearing angel
to the world.
The true spirit of industry lies in doing
we'll what we ought to do, yet do not like
to do.
A good substitute for talent, is genius for
hard work. The constantly busy people
accomplish wonders.
If you would hit the mark. you must aim
little above it. Every arrow that flies
feels the attraction of earth.
1t is mistake to suppose that men sue
coed through success; they much Oftener
succeed through failure.
A mans usefulness depends far more on
the kindness of his daily temper. than on
great and glorious deeds that shall attract
the admiration of the world.
A person is always better for having been
once happy, so that if you make another
happy now, you make him so. twenty years
hence, through the memory of it.
And the heart that is soonest awake to the flowers
Is always the arst to be touched by the thorns.

They took young blacksmith for forging.
And he said he would forge no more:
But when they had got him to prison,
He made strong bolt for the door.
He escaped and fled to the country.
And when in the forest alone,
He killed two robins by singing,
Thus killing two birds with ones tone.

There is a good deal in Ribbins' conclu-

AN EQUESTKIENNE SOAKED.
An Episode in the Riding Experiences
of St. Paul Girl.

An Episode in the Riding Experiences
of a St. Paul Girl.
A well known young lady of this city re-
Gently met with an accident which has Oc-
casioned her much annoyance by reason of
the good-natured rallying of her friends.
1t would hardly be fair to mention the
lady's name. but her acquaintance will
readily recognize her by her personal
charms, her bright. winning ways and her
many accomplishments, among the latter
being that of horseback riding, in which
she is an expert. She never lacks for es-
corts in her rides about the country, and a
few days since she and male companion
also well known in the city-rode out to
one of the lakes beyond the northern
bOundaryi0f the city.
While riding along the beach the gentle
man suggested that it would be good play
to allow the horses to drink, and acting on
the suggestion they rode into the water
until it nearly reached the stirrupS Of their
saddles. 1t was warm day, they had been
riding fast, and the cool water was very
grateful to, the beasts. The horse which
the young lady was riding, after enjoying
the situation for some minutes, seemed to
reason that, if simply to have his legs sub
merged were so pleasurable, il would be
much more so 10 put his whole anatomy
under water.
Acting on this idea he proceeded to lay
down, entirely regardless of his fair bur-
den. There was feminine scream, q
splash, masculine ejaculation, another
splash, and then the gentleman was wad-
ing to the shore carrying the dripping form
of his companion in his arms. Several
spectators who had arrived on the scene
say that it took the gentleman an unreal
sonably long time to reach terra firma, but
he finally succeeded in landing his burden.
Now the young lady declares she will
never. never ride into the water again, but
she probably does not mean it, while tho
young man acts as though he would give
weeks salary to have the accident occur
over again.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.
