Widowed Domestics,

The mania for getting married which be-
sets 30 many domestic servants often re-
suits in their finding themselves either
widowed or deserted in the course of a few
years, with @ number Of young children to
provide for, says the London Globe. They
are generally both able and willing to re-
turn to Domestic service. but that way of
earning a living is barred to them by the
necessity of looking after their incum-
ORANGES at home. knowing of many such
cases, a benevolent gentleman down in
Lancashire proposes the establishment of
homes which would take charge of the chill
dren, the mothers contributing toward their
support i'll proportion to their own earnings.
The author of this scheme of relief believes
that it would be gratefully accepted by the
mothers ns a welcome change from the UNI
ceaslng cares which now make Uptheir daily
lives. At the same time it would benefit
society by increasing the number of women
servants, a want which becomes more
pressing every year. Az a further help
toward that object, it is proposed that all
the girls admitted into the homes should
be specially trained for domestic service in
1t several departments. This would enable
them to 90 out into the world at n compara-
lively early age, and to help their mothers
instead of taxing Their scanty resources.
Ihe main difficulty Of realizing the scheme
which certainly has n taking looks in
raising the funds. In the natare OF thinps.
the homes would not be wholly self sup
porting, even if expenses we're cut down in
all possible ways. it would be necessary.
therefore,, to supplement the income de-
rived from the mothers contributions by
subScrlDtions collected from the charitable
public, and one healtates to advocate an
other appeal to that necessarily solicited
quarter.

The Thrilling Story Told by a
Young English Lieutenant
Hunting for Glory.
Feasted by Pirates and Then Left
to Die a Slow and Hor-
rible Death.
Buried Up to Their Necks in the Sand
and Then Tortured-The Timely
Rescue by Coz NJ ulander Napier.

In 1873 l was a sub-lieutenant in the Brit
ish Royal navy, serving on her maiesty's
gunboat Ticker. commanded by First
Lieutenant, (now captain) Charles Napier.
We were cruising IN Chinese waters, keeping
our eyes open for a lot of Tartar pirates
who are the pests of those seas, and are
dreaded by all honest trading vessels. We
were lying at the mouth of the Ho-Tong, a
small river or creek emptying into the Pa
ciic, and Commander Napier had sent me,
with a boatswain named Joe Maxted and a
launch's crew of twelve men, up tho creek
to hunt for and, if poss bic. destroy tho
stronghold of a certain Tartar pirate who
had recently made himself particularly OBJ
noxious.
We got into tho creek and rowed up
about Ave miles without finding anything
or anybody, and without being molested
in any way whatever. Then I thought
we had gone far enough, but. be-
ing young and painting for glory,
! determined to re%connoitre a little
Maxtea and two men, and giving orders to
the men left in charge of the boat that if
we did not return in forty-;ight hours they
were to come i'll poarch of us, We started
upon what was undoubtedly a very fool
hardy trip.
The whole river bank on either side was a
dense jungle tor about half Il mile, break
ing into a belt OF pin forest and then into
the open. Hefe and there were narrow cut
ting3 down to the river side-the river was
ouly abont eighty feet wide. about the width
OF a fairlr wide street-and occasionally
one cnlno uron a tiny village with a clear
ing and small rice farms. The inhabitants
OF these villages, We suspected, all took a

Ticker Was endeayoring to SUPPRESS. but
on the present occasion it was the head man
OF u small tribe, which even attacked tho
village pirates themselves. that we were

An Aristocratic Market Gard ener.

Pretty nearly half England's nobility
has gone into trade of some sort. The
Duke Of Fife is turning his land into bank
stock. Lord Randolph Churchill is spe-
cial correspondent-and the name is legion
of those noble DANES who sell everything
from butter to bonnets-and not always
by proxy. Tue so famous Lady Brooks
runs shop ia connection with her eastern
charity work, where you can buy nearly
everything woman can put on from the
crown Of her head to the sole of her foot.
Her betters in birth and breeding help
themselves in lowlier ways.
One, the sister of the wife of the Duke
of Wellington and daughter Of a marquis
whose blood is of the best, lives just out
of London in rambling old house that
has half an acre of garden behind it, Small

good share Of her maintenance. She points
out her asparagus bed, crowded with ten
der shoots, and says: 'Is it not temptingi
but / cannot afford TO eat it. Every
stalk is engaged to Covent Garden market,
where it fetches enough money TO clothe
me and my girls. New York Sun.

A Graphic Writer.

Many people no doubt will be shocked
at the idea that any one should wish to
witness the sufferings Of their fellow crea-
lures. Yet there are numerous reporters
whose strong point is being able to write p
thrilling description Of a terrible calamity,
say railway collision, a colliery explo-
sion, or some other equally appalling catas-
trophe. For example, there is a clever
pressman on one Of our important dailies
who does his best work on such occasions.
l do not say he positively revels in the
work, but a long experience in such mat
ters has hardened his nerves and blunted
his feelings. He will write an account of
a great accident in so graphic manner
that his readers will almost recoil with
horror from the awful scene he has de-
picted, while he himself will 60 through

Tn tn. Grand Canal. yepice.

Nowhere else in the wide world is there
such sight. A double row OF creamy
white palaces tiled in red and topped with
quaint chimneys. Overhanging balconies
of marble bursting with flowers, with gay
awnings above and streaming shadows be-
low. Two lines of narrow quays crowded
with people flashing bright bits Of color in
the blazing sun. Swarms of gondolas,
barcos and lesser water spiders darting in
and out. Lazy, red sailed luggers melon
loaded with crinkled green shadows crawl

end over the glistening highway, beaded
with people, curves the beautiful bridge
an ivory arch against n turquoise sky.

He began his political career at very
early age, acting as secretary OF the State
Constitutional Convention OF Illinois In
1862 He served a term In the State Leg
islature In 1s71-72 and was elected to the
Forty-fourth Congress. He has since
been reelected eight times. and is now
serving his seventeenth consecutive year
In the House.
His hold upon his constituency Is very
strong, his majority ranging from 5000 to
10000 In total poll OF $1,000 votes.
Mr.. Springer is an interesting figure In
the House In personal appearance he Is
tall. broad-shouldered and muscular. His
hair Is decidedly gray, as Is his thick,
square-cut beard. His eye is blue with a
Quzzcal twinkle that indicates his keen
appreciation OF humor. His manners arc
most agreeable, and there Is not more
popular man In the House.
In dress he is noticeable for extreme
neatness. and his fondness for flowers is
proverblal. He never appears In the
House without red rose or pink In his
buttonhole.
Mr.. Springer's work In committee has
been noticeable for remarkable industry
and application. AS Chairman OF the
Committee on Territories In the Fiftieth
Congress he gathered an immense amount
OF valuable data, subsequently utilized In
the debate which resulted In the admis-
sion OF several new States. He Ia one OF
the most faithful members In the House,
rarely being absent from his seat during
the sessions. He is one Of the party whips
on the floor and can be counted upon In
every emergency to do more than his
share OF hard work In getting the Demo-
Gratis together on any proposition.

The Uowery.

The Bowery is something less than n
mile in length. 1t reaches from Chatham
square to the little wedge in front OF the
Cooper Union at Eighth street which splits
it in twain, sending one-half up town TO be
the great Third avenue and one-half close
beside it to be the Fourth avenue. 1t has
the width Of both these wide avenues to-
gether. It's width varies, as becomes an
ancient thoroughfsre, but think 1t aver
ages more than 10o feet from house line to
house line, sixty-fve feet being the road
way. II you are stranger, and walk down
the Bowery in the daytime without n
guide, you will be apt to notice nothing
more particular about IL than that it is an
enormous, crowded, noisy street OF retail
shops, lodging houses and museums.
Any old New Yorker will show you some
very old and respectable shops-notably a
grocer's, bakers and shop for the sup
ply OF firemen's goods-which were estab-
lished there in the days of other genera
tions. But these are not so interesting TO
a stranger as the many little stores that
give distinct character to the street. Ex-
cept in the main street Of Havre, / never
saw so many shops for the sale Of jeweiry
ms there are on the Bowery. Most of them
display new, cheap and hashy ornaments;
half dozen are what are called pawn
brokers' sales shops, or shops for the sale
OF unredeemed pledges; one Is mart for
duplicated presents received by persons on
their wedding days or on anniversary oc-
casions.-Julian Ralph in Century.

House Numbering In Alaska.

'"This system Of numbering your streets
by commencing every block with new
hundred" declared a guest at the Girard
house TO n Philadelphia friend, sis an ad-
mirable plan, but the Indians OF Alaska
have the most novel system OF house num-
bering on the entire continent. When
was in Sitka / was inexprcssibly anus ID
during my stroll along the water front. 1t
is along that that these Indians have built
their houses. Being half civilized they are
imbued with a laudable desire to emulate
their white cousins, but being only thus
half civilized their application OF their half
way notion OF numbering their houses is "A
most laughable affair
''They have evidently appreciated the
fact that the house numbers should grow
larger as they progress, but the regular
increase Of numerals seems 10 have been
battling 10 their untutored minds. The
first house we noticed started In an indeh-
mite way with the number 900, the second
was CO., the third go. the fourth 900, the
fifth LOIS, and so on. The jumps yere
most erratic, an undenisble merit, now

houses we had reached some number away
