MUSCULAR SHOP GIRLS.
YOUNG WOMEN WHO ARE HANDY
WITH THEIR FISTS.
They Practice Daily in the store's Base
ment-One Expert Knocked An
other Out and Then tainted.

The men with immense neckties and
small muscles, who ornament Spring
street in the afternoon and ogle the girls
as they pass by are notified to stee,
clear of certain young women who work
in large retail dry goods store on
Spring street.
Whether their actions of late are de-
signed with view to take the law in
their own hands az far as the mashers
go, or not, the fact remains that the
boys would not be in it if one of these
muscular girls should take it into her
head to resent particularly bold stare
or signif cant wink.
In some way the girls who work in the
establishment have procured a set of
boxing gloves. There are quite num-
Der OF young women employed in the
store, and they found quiet nook in
the basement, where q number OF lively
fights have taken place at odd times.
More than one of the pretty darlings
have acquired proficiency in the noble
art of self-defense, and the way they
punch each others heads is said to be
q sight worth more than seat
at the coming Sullivan-C Corbett fight.
They have picked up the usual slang
phrases which are expressive of the
ring, and the bouts between the girls
have been conducted with such secrecy
that it was only by solemn oath as to
the source of his information that
HERALD reporter was given tip about
the matter.
! One Of the girls i quite friend Of
Solly Smith, who distinguished himself
In San Francisco two days ago. She
was very much wrought up about the
pending fight, and while in that condi-
tion, and in the lull between q little
mill between herself and demi- brunette
said that if Solly didn't whip Hawkins,
when he came home she would punch
his head for him herself.
The girls have to steal away to the
basement for their amusement, and
can't speak very loud for fear of being
found out, but when q particularly Wig
orous thump in the ribs is given or
taken the feminine chorus which arises
is said to beggar description. One pretty
blonde who has been the admiration Of
numerous mashers on the streets for
long time, actually knocked out one OF
the girls not long since by vicious up
percut. She was so frightened bv her
success that she tainted, and said after
wards that nothing could ever induce
her to put on the gloves again.

HELoDERMA HoRRIDAM.

Dr.. Goodfellow Of Tucson Bitten by Ono
Recently.
DR.. Goodfellow was severely bitten by
Gila monster at Tucson on Saturday
last. He was playing with the reptile,
when it took hold of one of his fingers
in its teeth and bit through the flesh.
The doctor did not anticipate any seri-
ous trouble, but his anticipations were
not we'll founded. He has been laid up
ever since, but is reported much better
today and will attend to business again
tomorrow.
This instance again goes to prove that
the bite of the Heloderma horridam is
venomous, syndicate newspaper writers
who have never seen one to the contrary
notwithstanding.

l overlooked short dialogue between
a twelve-year-old boy and his father
recently that had some significance,
and which can be verified by an OBJ
servant citizen who chooses to take
notice.
Say, pop, wouldn't you like to be a
cop?"
"Why, HarryP" asked the father in
surprise.
"Well, cops can steal and not get ar
rested, and other people can't" replied
Harry.
"Whoever told you thatp" inquired
the father.
"0h, know 1t myself; see them.
They 60 to the Eytalyans and they
snatch handful of roast chestnuts and
put them in their pocket behind; then
they take apples and bananas and or

"Aaron has not written 70 me for
long time, = said Jane, with tears in her
eyes. ''Oh, Olive, | shall be glad now
when you are gone to London. You will
see him, and ask him why he neglects
old friends" Ig.
"You shall know everything, Jane"
Olive answered. "Only keep brave
heart, dear. don't think Aaron will
be reserved with me. The sight of an
Eastmeon face will thaw the ice that
has gathered round his heart"
"God grant 1t may be sol' Jane
sighed. "But have thought lately
that my old dream would never come
true. have thought that perhaps I
was not meant for Aaron, nor Aaron
for me. Maybe should not make
him happy If we were married; am
easily depressed, and should feel Just
as he felt; all his moods would be
mine"
Olive was silent for moment.
Through all her anxiety to insure James
happiness, there had sometimes flashed
such thoughts as these. A stronger,
more self-confdent woman might have
led Aaron out of his gloom by the force
Of her will. But Jane, gentle and tim
orous, could only sit beside him in the
shadow of his own fears. And yet how
well she loved himl How impossible Il
seemed for her to go on living without
him!
1--WE must have patience, Jane" she
said at last, in her sweet voice. ''I
suppose" she added, with a suddeI
smile, "that you never give though
to your first loverP You have quit,

THREE BRAVE WOMEN.
Hardships which the Faith OF Christian
Missionaries Endured.

Hardships which the Faith OF Christian
Missionaries Endured.
Three women recently footed IL from
the Indian ocean, over two hundred
miles, TO Mashonaland. They were
members of an Episcopal order, and
were trained nurses sent out TO take
charge Of the hospital which has been
started in that new country. The
bishop Of Mashonaland expected that
provision would be made TO carry these
young women in hammocks into the
interior, but the force of porters was
unexpectedly small and the women
said they would endeavor TO walk.
With extraordinary courage they set
out on the journey. There was no
wagon road and for much Of the way
no paths were found. The party suf-
fered terribly at times from thirst.
At night the bush was always alive
with lions, hyenas, buffaloes, leopards
and other animals.
The grass often exceeded twelve feet
in height for miles and miles, and
some days the little caravan marched
through incessant rain. They suffered
severely from the desertion of theil
porters, and Of tho thirty-two carrier
with whom they started out only foul
remained at the end Of the journey
The women had no tents TO deep in
and altogether they made tbeljournel
under conditions which would hav'
tried the strength and courage OF th'
stoutest men.
They safely reached their hestina
tion, however, and they are the frs
white women 10 have made such
journey into the interior Of Africa, tn
others travelling either on stedmboat
or being carried either on hatmock
or chairs. -Philadelphia Record
