A RIDE ON A MULE.

There Were two men In Company A
seventeenth regiment, Connecticut vol
unteers, thai were very intimate chums
They were Jim Hurlbut and Ed Malo
ney. Their intimacy resulted from 6
fight that thy had had while the regi
ment WAS stationed in Baltimore il
September, ,362. The captain, after sep
arating them, ordered them to load theil
knapsacks with bricks, and turned
them over t" the officer of the guard
with orders or them to march the guarC
line four hours as a punishment. They
were ever afterwards the firmest Of
friends.
Shortly al Il Maloney's release from
arrest. on Il count of his "raid on the
cOmmissary ut Brooks Station, 1868, he
was detailed Us Il teanster on the am
munition tran of the Eleventh corps. The
train was ,Iried at Stafford Court
House, SOM two miles from our camp
Ed got lon ne sometimes, and, obtain
ing permis~i a, would ride his wheel
mule to our camp to visit the boys OF
Company a. and especially his old chum
Hurlbnt. Or" day Jim was on the sick
list, and WIS lying in his bunk in hall
dressed con ,tion, only his shirt and
drawers on. 1t was about $50 D. m
and the ba; dion was forming on the
parade groul 4 for drill, when Ed rode
up to his teri on his mule, calling for
Jim. He go up and asked Maloney to
give him ride on his mule. Hell
throw you il. II minute; he knows when
n stranger mounts him." was Eds reply.
''Ill risk th,t," says Jim. Il won't 90
any further ian the end of our company
street and back"
So Ed discounted and Jim got in the
saddle. All rent well enough until the
mule got to lie intersection Of the COM
pany with Il battalion street, and find
ing that he Z d Il stranger on his back,
he took the hIt in his mouth, and, turn
ing his head toward the parade ground
and home, h" struck a full gallop in that
direction. jim got scared and lost his
footing in the stirrups, which tapped
against the sides of the mule, making
him more III manageable, and they came
tearing dow the battalion street at a
fearful rate. Presently we heard a shout
of whoa. wnoa," and, looking around,
saw Jim and the mule coming like mad,
and Jim holding on to the bride for
dear life, his hair standing on end, his
eyes like two peeled onions, and looking
scared out of his wits.
On came the mule. There was Just
room enough at the right of the line
for him to pass without running into
the woods, and among the stumps,
but he shot through like an express
train and on toward the camp of the
train. He had not gone far when he
gave a snort and elevated his heels, laid
back his ears and sent Jim flying over
his head alongside big stump, while
the mule went on to the train camp.
Hurlbut picked himself up and struck a
bee line for his tent, but he had to pass
in full view of the whole regiment on
his way, and he got a good salute as he
ran. Maloney had to walk back to the
train, and rs the company marched up
the street on its return from drill the
captain strurk his head in Jim's tent
and said to him, Say, Jim, the next
time you are sick take ride on mule!"

American Girls and Their Voices.

Mime. Fursch-Madi, a woman of many
talents, chief of which is pure soprano
voice, has settled down in this city aud
taken charge of the vocal department of
one of the city colleges.
Voice culture" she said TO me the
other day, lis difficult work There is
! no reason why America should not pro-
duce some really great singers. There
are many grand voices in America, but
American girls do not seem tc care to
become great singers. They do not like
to study.
If a girl is blessed by nature with a
voice, she must study hard to cultivate
it, not study spasmodically, but go at it
with determination and keep at it. OF
course she should begin right There is
right way and wrong way to begin,
and it does seem to me often that some
of our girls have poor advisers and poorer
teachers. a new method? Oh, dear
me-, no. There is only one method, and
that is first voice, and second, proper
cultivation and study. All the great
singers of the world know this to be
true. 1t is the only way to succeed. -

Money That Patti Has Earned.

That marvellous little diva, Adelina
Patti, is with us again. When l saw
her last time she had charming Titan
hair-hair in which there was sugges-
ton of autumnal sunset. Now they tell
me her hair is as dark as ravens wing.
What a pretty and gifted woman Patti
is! And to think of the money which
she has honestly earned with her sweet
voice. Not less than So 900 000, l should
say, including douceurs from the car OF
Russia and the kings and potentates Of
Europe Her Craig-y-Nos castle is a
royal palace. Of all the women that
have come and gone upon this earth not
one has ever earned so much money as
Adelina Patti, the daughter Of wan.
dering Italian minstrel. Queens and
favorites have been richer than she. but
the wealth was not of their getting.
When l last saw Patti it was in the
Hoffman House last year. | called by
invitation. She had been suffering from
cold and had not been singing fol
nearly week. She was gracious and
affable and vivacious, but in the midst
of the chatter-which had lasted for a
half hour-her devoted husband, Nico-

under the direction of her physicians
she was to take her evening draft and
retire She obeyed like dutiful child.

To Help Women in the Country.

A Michigan woman, much interested
in the fresh air work, suggests that city
women engaged in this work should in
vite the country mothers who have en-
tertained children at their homes to visit
in the city homes few days in the Win
ter. These farmers wives, who take in
the city waits at time when summer
work presses hardest and summer heat
is most oppressive, need change Of
scene almost as much as do the mothers
and children in the tenements, and for
lack of change and rest it is said that
farmers wives form large per cent. Of
the inmates Of insane asylums. It is not
the hard work, but want of companion
ship, the isolation from books, music,
lectures, the theater, the desolation of
intellectual starvation.
In some Of the western towns move
ment is on foot to establish clubs among
the country women, where it is believed
higher mental development is possible
than in the city, because no other form
of recreation will distract attention.
The plan is to divide each county into
sections and organize a woman's club in
each section. These country clubs will
cooperate with those in the cities for
the interchange of ideas and the forming
of friendships mutually beneficial.-N

A Leap Year Proposition.


AS leap year is upon US the moment
GUS question, Shall women propose? con-
fronts us in various newspaper columns,
with its usual four yearly regularity.
Conservative people will of course
pooh pooh the idea, and the more frivo-
lous laugh at the same. Some of our
radical, would be social innovators will
be advocates, and others will illuminate
their varied denunciations.
Considered in the abstract we do not
see why woman should not express her
natural preferences as freely as a man
In regard to the opposite sex. Indeed,
she seems to be free to do so in every
other respect but that of love and mar
rage. And yet is not this the most i'm
portant of all earthly relations to the
human race as society is at present or
gained?
Mere reasoning aside, however, other
considerations enter into our estimates
of propriety. Here we have sentiment,
which so largely makes up the sum of
womanly opinions on most subjects out
side of bread and breathing.
As the majority of people think now.
and as they will probably continue to
think for many years to come. there are
certain moral and social questions
wherein old time precedent will doubt
less continue to rule, The realm of
courtship and marriage still lies fully
within these prescribed limits.
In this affair it has from time iInme-
,rlDr,ai bpen her lnailpCa bile and alto
gether charming privilege to be the one
who should be sought, wooed and Won
Whether this be abstractly right or
wrong it is so ingrained in the very
nature of society at large that the iso-
lated kicks which are here and there
made have so far produced little or no
efect.-Yankee Blade.

Emancipated from Boarding Houses


Some young women of this city have
tried new experiment in housekeeping
with eminent success, and there is no
reason why other young women who are
earning their own livelihood should not
follow their example with great benefit
to themselves. The ladies had been board
ing. and they agreed that this sort of life
was unsatisfactory. The monotony of
boarding house life became uncomfortable
They resolved to break loose and estab-
lish ''menage of their own" A nice
house was obtained in one of the most
''eligible" streets of the city.
The servant was an immigrant, for it
was part of the experiment to instruct
their help in their own way, The ladies
take turns in ordering the next days din
der in certain understood limits. so that
the longings of each individual for beef
steak and onions, corned beef and cab
bage, or beef a la mode. or any other spe-
cial dish could be gratifed. They also
take turns in the management of the
house. They live in entire harmony;
they are at peace with the cook; they
have ample time to attend to their sever
al vacations and for occasional amuse-
me1ts, and they save enough from their
former board expenses to pay for their
summer holidays.-Albany journal.

BANGOR, September 26.-Humphrey
Nichols of East Corinth, who was beat
en- and robbed Friday night, since he
was once before assaulted and robbed
has always kept club and long knife in
his room. Friday night he heard noise
in the room adjoining his. He had a
suspicion that it was made by thief and
he quickly arose, turned the key in the
door and began to dress himself. He
then picked up his club and opened the
door. To his great surprise he saw re-
volver pointing straight toward him. He
did not lose his courage and struck the
man with his club. At the same time he
hit the revolver so that only slight
wound was made in his scalp. The rob
Der then pushed him on the bed and be-
gan to beat him in terrible manner
with a club. Mr. Nichols succeeded In
wrenching the club from the man S
hands and the fellow then fled. Mr..
Nichols managed to crawl to the room OF
his housekeeper and inform her OF what
had taken place. They did not make
any cutlery to alarm the neighbors, and
it was not until E. G. Nichols and Detec-
tive Hartman arrived that Mr.. Nichols's
wounds were dressed. There are ten
wounds on his head. Detective Hartman
found bullet from the revolver lodged
in the wall
