A WOMAN ON A SPREE.
Rapidity with Which Il Wife Succumbed
In, rs,,Ir

Rapidity with Which Wife Succumbed
to Drink.
An instance of the astonishing rapidity
with which q reckless young woman can
sink to the depths of degradation and
wretchedness came TO the attention of the
Gerry society agents the other day. Agent
Deubert found dirty, ragged young
woman of twenty-five walking the streets
of New York with three-months-old baby
in her arms. The woman he knew 10 be q
confirmed drunkard and vagrant Her
name was Kate Clark.
Eight years ago Kate Clark was sober,
respectable, good looking young woman,
the wife of Thomas Clark, an industrious
iron molder, working at Cornell's Iron
foundry. In a few months after that time
she began to drink, and in less than two
years she was @ drunkard. In 1887 the
society agents found the Clarks in a
wretched hole. One of their children was
taken to the hospital, where it died. The
mother went to the island for six months,
but when she got out she was worse than
ever.
In the meantime Thomas, the husband,
kept steadily at his work, giving his disso-
lutte wife nearly all his wages.
Several weeks ago he reported to Agent
Deubert that his wife had abandoned him
entirely.
'It amt her 1 want" he said, wiping
tear away with hard, grimy fist. TITS
the baby"
When the agent found that the woman
was wandering the streets with baby he
started to look for her. When she was
found it was on West Twenty-siXth street.
For weeks she had walked the streets with
the baby, getting drunk when she could
beg enough money and sleeping in door
ways or bacl, alleys. 1t was wonder
that the baby had survived it. AS it was,
the child was half dead.
Thomas Clark in the meantime had been
living at 555 West Twenty-sixth street, in
two bare rooms, in which there was no fur
niture except u filthy mattress.
When Kate Clark was arraigned in JEFF
ferson Market police court Justice White
sent her to the island for six months. Her
baby goes with her.

Lucky mt Gambling.

According to a report in the New York
Sun curious scene occurred the other
evening in the cafe Of the Manhattan club.
A young gentleman worth a million or
two and fond of games of chance strolled
in about midnight and challenged one of
the gentlemen in the cafe to match cents
for 81 900 side. This diversion between
the two lasted until about $4,000 had
changed hands, the wealthy young gentle
man being the winner. He then joined
the group at table and suggested that
they all match cents for each others
watches.
In half an hour the young millionaire
had watches tucked in all his pockets with
the chains dangling from them The next
proposition was that they should match
for the coats on their backs, and in forty
minutes the young millionaire had the
coats of his opponents piled in a chair be-
side him. To end the evenings sport he
proposed that they should match for waist.
coats. Luck followed the young million
aire throughout, and the waistcoats were
soon piled on top of the coats beside him.
His opponents, in shirts and trousers, de-
clared that they had had enough sport
after that. The young millionaire ordered
a couple of magnums for the party and
graciously handed back the watches and
clothin- He tucked the check for the
money won, though, in his wallet.

and started her. She was still in good
health. She gave one frisk of her tail, and
then, filled with "reminiscences of Mr..
