RumOrs of bad management in the re-
ceiving hospital were rife, but positive
proof was wanting. Annie Laurie" s"
for such Vas the name Miss Sweet had
chosen, decided to test the matter. She
dressed herself up in shabby gentee
clothes, and going into crowded street
fell in a voluntary fit. She was duly
picked up and carted OFF to the receiving
hospital. She says the treatment effectu-
ally cured her Of fits for the future. The
papers were all filed with pathetic de-
scriptions of the poor and friendless maid
en- who had fallen in the street and lodged
in the hospital When the reporters
called to get the case she could not sup
press laughter, and had to feign hyster-
les in order to conceal her shamming.
When the stately matrOn remarked,
"Thare is reporther and we must kaps
him away from the facts or he viii be
afther making column of it, so he
will" she had TO summon her wits to
keep straight face She was made to
drink hot mustard decoction to re-
move the poison which the wise doctor
declared she had taken with suicidal in
tent. Her recovery followed in due
time, and after her release a reporter for
a rival paper sought her home 10 inter
view her about her hospital experience.
In the interview she posed as the friend
of poor Annie Myers VINO had been in
the hospital.
The story she gave that reporter un-
folded tale whose highest breath made
each particular hair stand on end like
quills upon the fretful porcupine,' as it
were, and awakened such interest in
the poor girl that she was flooded
with letters Of sympathy and gifts Of
money and clothing from kind hearted
women. But when her story was printed
a sensation was aroused. The governor
of the state telegraphed to have the doc
tor dismissed pending investigation, and
when the investigation was made he
was bounced for brutality.
Next she obtained letters and passports,
and went to visit the leper island Of
Molokai, in the Hawaiian group. Here
she was the first and only woman who
ever set foot on that accursed land ex-
cept some half dozen Sisters of Mercy,
whose lives are spent there SIS nurses TO
the suffering 200 lepers upon whose life
the sun Of hope has forever set. Here
she found no startling episode. Only
sorrow, deep and dark. gathered around
the victims of the vile disorder. But
her story of the place was 8 graphic and
palmetto recital.
After returning from the lepers' col
ony she resumed the every day work of
society editor and reporter. Her last
adventure was n joining the Salvation
Army. and in hsllelujah bonnet she
went to the jail with sn sT1nfal Of War
CTys and tambourine. Sac peddled
War Crys TO the prisoners and took
notes while the captains shouted and
prayed. snd Ter story was good one.

efit?"-Other Items.
The Ohio State Journal in answering

of $229, ,020.37 was paid for relief during the
year.
Utah has thirteen lodges with a total
membership of rs. And there are seven
encampments, three r. D. lodges and one
canton.
John E. Cowden, of fAmesbury, Mass, said
to be the oldest Odd Fellow in the United
States, died recently, aged 50 years. He
joined the order in Philadelphia in 1881
A lodge may donate to brother who is

RunninP Away.

when was q child, " writes lady who
IS noted for her placidity of disposition and
her capacity of endurance, II had notori-
ously hot temper. As soon as my mother
saw one of the fits coming on she used to
say gently, Perhaps you had better run
away a little while, dear Then l would
take my sled or my little garden hoe, ac-
cording TO the season, dash out of doors,
and stay there until the evil spirit had
passed by.
1--WE kept up that little habit, my
mother and l. entered the young ladies'
seminary OF our town, and there l worked
very hard, but, unlike many of the girls,
did not break down. Whenever my mother
noticed that my forehead was beginning to
tie itself up in knot over my books she
would say: Run away for an hour, daugh-
ter. The sunshine is very bright, and I
want you to 90 out and soak yourself in
it
"Of course I didn't always want to go,
but mother could he firm as well as in
dulgeDt, and the result was that I did a
great deal OF running away, either to bed
or into the open air. The other girls kept
themselves awake on coffee in order to
study late at night, and some of them did
outstrip me in book knowledge Still, l

I'm their campaigns against Algiers the
French were surprised to see their camels,

"A camel generally drinks once in three

reservoir can De opened, and ten or fifteen
