a Lady Householder.

Ida V. Wilkins. the lady horse-deal-
err of Idaho. is described as a quiet,
self-possessed young woman, neither
masculine in appearance nor eccentric
in manner" Much Of her time is nee
essarily spent in galloping over the
prairies. When she finds herd to
suit her she makes her bargain after
which she rides home and her father
and brothers attend to the remaining
details. She has no desire to pose either
as a cattle queen" or heroine. She
likes her business and she also likes to
make money out of it. She is treated
with the greatest respect by the rail
road men and the cattle dealers with
whom she transacts BUSH ess, and her
Judgment on a horse is considered val.

music. Of which she IS very fond.

How Wide Awake Was started.

The story of how the Wide Awake
was founded is a pretty little one.
Nine miles out of Battle Creek, in
Michigan, there We're two girls who
lived on farm and who had longings
after editorships. They did not imme-
diately rush into literature with poems
and plays and the like: perhaps they
had some premonitory sympathy with
editors, but they sewed and saved their
money for half dozen years. Then
they bought small farm and cultivated
it themselves, doing hard, rough work
They wrote occasionally, and their con-
tributiOns were favorably received by
the papers and magazines. When their
farm had yielded them a sufficiently
large amount of capital to start mag
azine, and their literary success seemed
assured from the favor with which
their contributions were received, they
issued the Wide Awake. 1t was a dozen
years fromthe time of their youthful
planning. One of the young women,
Ella Farman, continues the magazine

MRS. ROSS WAS HOSTILE.
She Cleaned Out a Man and HIS Wife
Who Objected to Her Music.

Quite a good deal of excitement was
created Yesterday by the report that an
other one OF the jail prisoners had es-
capped. 1t all happened in about this
wise: Some two weeks g q woman
who calls herself Mrs. Ross and Marshall
and what ever else comes into her mind,
had a racket with one of her Sixteenth
street neighbors named johnson. 1t is
said that johnson and his wife we're sub
iected to the disturbance that eminated
from the mysterious woman's domicile.
She. so they charged, would have been
much more courteous, on general princi-
pies, if she had taken a two or three
years course at the ~jagomania institute.
She was capable OF getting up an imita-
ton of anything that pleased her fancy.
She would below like a calf, crow like a
cock, or utter those soft, sweet tones of
the boot owl with remarkable ease.
This was all well enough for those who
we're inclined to hold the muse IN fond
dalliance, but johnson and bis other halt
were not SO inclined. They showed their
dislike of the music" coming from the
woman's quarters, but the most agreeable
and civil answer they received from their
tormentor was a very loud. cool, but not
very well collected answer Of "RatsI'
johnson and his wife finally became des-
perate. being disturbed in their sleep. and
proceeded 10 90 over and expostulate
with the woman. She did them up
strictly according to "Queensbury rules"

free for all fight took place and when the
clouds of war had cleared away johnson
hobbled out with a great pet In the shape
of a large, juicy black eye, and his faith
full spouse came tumbling after completely
knocked out, as were also four of her
front teeth. As soon as they were able
they swore out a warrant for the bellicose
woman. and yesterday afternoon Deputy
Sheriff Wilkes made the arrest. She
wanted to go to the post Office and while
the officer did not take her arm she
started out to steal a good sized march
upon him, and consequently she caused
him to chase her a block and a half. She
was finally placed in Jail and will have a
hearing this afternoon before Judge Lee.

what caused the report that a prisoner

Said the man at a bookstore: 1.-THE
other day a customer came in and asked
for Whittier's prose works, and a young
man who was present laughed when the
customer had gone out. l asked him why,
and he said hat the man was one Of
many who thought that because Whit
tier wrote poetry he must have written
prose. Then it was my turn to laugh
But l am of the opinion that there are
many like the young man who laughed.
Whittier is al essayist, and his essays
are in volumes as numerous as those of
his poems. In 1881 think it was about
that year-he wrote a stirring pamphlet
entitled Justice and Expediency.' The
same was a discussion Of the slavery
question. When the Antislavery party
or society was formed in Philadelphia he
was one Of the delegates, and he wrote an
account of the proceedings of that soci-
ETY. which is still quoted. | call to mind
