there alone, experimenting her farm
and improving it, and when one day
the stage brought pale-faced young
attorney to Big Bow, he found a
plump, rosy.cheeked Dakota girl
and homestead worth $4,000 wait
ing to receive him. He is now the
leading lawyer and one of the
wealthiest men of the state, and he
owes it all to his wife. Every man
for 200 miles around is in love with
that woman, and would crawl on
his hands and knees through briar

she possesses privileges which are
her birthright.
She will be "enthroned in the en-
pire of the Affections" and the "su-
premacy of her sex in the produc-
ton of better breed of human be-

be the owner other person and prop

its impress for good on the ages.
Her chief ambition will be to secure
noble fatherhood for her children
that they may be well born, and so
to live that all who know her will

The Quality Of Mercy.

Chicago Inter Ocean.
1t was a supremely sad and some
what disgraceful story that report
er of the Inter Ocean yesterday told
to it's readers concerning the treat
ment of a woman in woman's sor-
est time of trouble.
A woman-a girl woman-wo-
man enough to be a mother, girl
enough to be in need of mothers

touch girl enough, too, alas, to be
sadly in need of strong fathers or
"A strong brothers. hand to smite the
scoundrel who had betrayed her
was found in an alley in the city, in
the stress and pain of maternity.
"Home she had n0ne". The base
father of her about to be base-born
child doubtless had a comfortable
home. He, most likely, was at the
theatr, or at the club; perhaps, even
he was at church sociable, or per.
haps he was bidding his pure sister
or his silver-haired mother Good
night" at the time when his victim
was 'groaning the unutterable groan'
in sinking alley. The betrayer
seldom lies sick in an alley: that form
of punishment generally falls on the
betrayed. Heaven is just, but its
Justice sometimes moves tardily.

Advancement of Woman.

Boston Times.
During the past decade woman's
progress has been wonderful.
While man has refrigerated, woman
has advanced. Though called the
weaker vessel" she is constantly
exhibiting strength of character
and an ability to endure suffering,
both physical and mental, which
man is stranger to. One of the
most encouraging evidences of ad-
vancement is found in the fact that
she is casting off the mask of con-
ventionality which has hedged her
divinity, and enlightened individual
judgment is taking it's place. The
coming woman will be none the less
sweet, loving creature, the happy

SONG OF THE TEMPER.

Toll on, oh. poverty's daughter,
Nor flush with shame at my call /;
There are none to praise if You
conquer,
And none to weep if you fall.
You may work till your head grows
dizzy
With the whirring needles din;
But hunger will still pursue you,
And your soul grow faint within.
You may toll till the long, long
morning,
Through the day to the dusty
noon,
Through the light till the morrow's
dawning
You will come to me full soon.
The river and ! wait ever
We have waited through all the
years.
And the daughters of poverty never
To our songs can close their ears.
Though you vow wnen life seems
brightest
That you never my call will heed,
Grim want will still pursue you;
You will bend like the wind-struck
reed.
am the old-time' MolOch,
And the young are still my prey
And this is the fire they kindle
In the nineteenth century way.
Then work for little longer,
To win for another gold
Each day my clutches grow strong
Some day it will surely hold.
-Ninette M. Lowater.

st. Louis Globe Democrat.
"The pluckiest man | ever saw
was woman" said Tom 0 Farrell,
of Fargo, as he brought his rich
Irish brogue and big black pipe over
to the crowd of story-tellers that
had pre.empted corner in the Lin.
dell hotel rOtunda. "With the first
big rush to Dakota came pale-faced
young Boston school-marm, who
looked as though she had one dainty
foot in the grave and the other on
the verge. She took up claim,
and the boys saw that she got the
finest piece o land in the county.
Then we set to work and built her
house. Every mothers son OF us
proposed to her before we got the
roof on. She was just the sweetest
little blossom that ever set fire to
the masculine pulse, and she had a
way of speaking to every man that
led him to believe that he was all the
world and part of Coney. Island to
her. After we got the house built,
she got up little supper for us
seven great, rough bears, all of us
clear gone Well, sir, after she'd
ted us and made much of us, and
thanked us in her sweet way for her
cozy little home, she told us she was
already engaged to poor devil of
law student back in New England,
who was working his way through
college. We all felt pretty blue,
but we swore we'd look out for her
till her dude won his spurs, and we
did We broke land for her, plant
ed and harvested her crops, and she
repaid IFS by gathering us about her
evenings and reading to us and
singing old home songs that seemed
to us holier anthems than ever rolled
through the marble aisles of grand

o1WOMAN'S DEPARTMENTS


However, the timely policemen
and the timely ambulance took the
suffering woman to the gate OF
Mercy Hospital. To the gate only.
She was not to experience that
! quality of Mercy. We make no
comment. All the beds Of the hos
pital may have been full it may have
been contrary to the hospitals rules
to admit an unwedded mother with
in it's gates it may be that Mercy
Hospital has no obstetric ward. We
merely record the tact that this wo-
man was turned away from it's
gates. Michael Reese Hospital al
so refused to admit her. Again we
make no comment. We simply re-
cord the fact that this woman, whose
pitiful condition would have gained
the sympathetic attention of the fe-
male inmates of an Esquimau igloo,
was refused entrance to two hOspi-
tails in Chicago.
St. Luke's Hospital gave her shell
ter, but it was too late. The girl
had become mother without the aid
of doctor, midwife, or nurse. The
plying stars alone beheld her ago
ny, her uncouched child had all the
surrounding air for it's first coverlet.
Something is wrong when such a
thing can happen to the greatest and
richest city of the West. The we'd
ded or unwedded condition of des
titute woman approaching maternity
is a matter for after consideration.
Her present condition demands aid.
The mercy of hospitals sustained by
public taxes or by voluntary gifts OF
the people should be like the rain
of heaven that falls alike upon the
just and the unjust. 1t may be part
of the necessary economy of public
charity that certain hospitals shall
be closed permanently to maternal
cases of all sorts; we can imagine
such necessity. But if it be thus,
it should be the duty of every police
man, and especially of every ambu-
lance driver, to know what institu-
tions are opened and what are closed
to such cases as the one under notice.
The public also should know this.
The scandal of such All eveut as that
narrated by our reporter should not
be repeated in Chicago.

ance, on the 10th instant Of the seventy fifth

A Young Widow Charged With Opening q
Letter That Did Not Belong to Her.
Mrs. Lena Davis. young widow residing at
No. 467 g street northwest was arrested last
evening by Deputy Joyce Of the marshals
office on q warrant issued by United States
Commissioner Mills, charging her with violat-
ing the postal regulations by opening a special
delivery letter addressed by NJ. ]. Scannell at
Canton, n. Y. to Rosena Dye. a white girl en-
ployed in the house. This morning Mrs Davis
was taken before the Commissioner and after
a hearing gave bail for the action of the grand
jury. 1t is alleged that Mrs. Davis is engaged
to be married to Mr.. Scannell. who has boarded
at the house for year. Miss Dye has been a
servant there for month or two. Mr. Scam
nell went home to vote and wrote to the girl,
and Mrs. Davis, recognizing the handwriting,
opened the letter, but she claims that it was by
mistake. 1t was testified that when the post
office people went to see Mrs. Davis in relation
to the letter she admitted that she had it and
