They were StreWn about the SetteeS and
carpeted decks Of the steamer.
Eearly on Monday morning the cap
tain Of the Cepheus discovered that he
required coal and water, and could not
get to Fire Island without them. He
, almly steamed up to the quarantine
tetty and made fast alongside and sent
word shortly after 4 to wake the health
officer up.
After a hurried conference with DR..
FERGUSON and Mr.. Wall, DR.. Jenkin,
decided to water and G al her at his own
dock. This was done, and at about II

Fire Island. The trip was again a
roungh one, but there was more than
the elements to be met.
Thelr ~. arts Were Hard.
A storm had been brewing around
Babylon and Islip since the first rumor
Of Fire Island icing turned into a quar-
Rntine station had been heard. Tho
Babylonians and their near neighbors
cared not for the sufferings of their fell
low-countrymen and women: they did
not care II they died of cholera. starved
or were drowned; all they thought OF
was the totally improbable proposition
Of their being attacked by the pesti-
lence, owing to the p~ropinquity Of a
humber OF ladies, gentlemen and chill
llren who never hal cholera in their
midst, who had lived for u fortnight on
board a plague-stricken ship without be,

their own homes.

Of the Cepheus he would have landed

Gays imprisonment for the act.
Upon his return to the city In tho
evening Governor Flower proceeded inn
mediately TO make arrangements for
having the injunction against occupying
Fire Island removed.
It was suggested 70 Gov. Flower that
the naval reserve should be called out
to dispense the riotous bay men ct Fire
Island, and to do patrol duty In New
York bar end the Great South bay.

Fort Worth Gets the Rock Island.

FORT WORTH, Jan. 4.-For several
weeks it has been generally known that
the great Chicago, Rock Island and
Pacific railroad system, the southern
terminus of which is now mt Minco, in
the Indian Territory, would extend its
line into Texas. Almost before the fact
was known the engineers were in the
field and at work running line to Red
river While it was known that the road
would build into Texas, it was not posi-
lively known what its route would be,
although the character of the country
was such that the most practical route
would bring the Rock Island to Fort
Worth. All these things looked as if the
Rock Island people meant business, and
yesterday the news was received here
that the Rock Island was coming to Fort
Worth. The good news was received in
letter by Mayor Smith from proni-
nent banker in st. Louis, who wrote
that he had seen contract duly signed
up for the steel and rails for the extern
sion of the Chicago, Rock Island and
Pacific road from Minco, in the Indian
Territory, to Fort Worth.

1t was warm, sultry night, and the
mosquitoes were buzzing about in the
humid air. The stars seemed blurred
and mildewed, and the leaves scarcely
rustled. In the faint flicker of the
library lamp sat two men looking fond
ly upon two glasses of white wine,
awaiting impatiently the moment at
which the ice should get them some
where near zero.
Finally the host said:

now; help yourself"
And the other replied, in preoccu
pied way:

Thereupon the guest, with a broad,

THE admission of a woman to the

by Miss Emily Faithful as a distinct
advance from the attitude of the union,
some years ago, when the employment
of women printers was objected to in
the strongest way by this same London
society. The fact, however, that women
now command in London the same
wages at the printers case that men
demand, has put quite different as
pect on the case. This renders women
who do not work under the regular
rates eligible to the society.--N. Y

THE TRAINED NURSE.
Her Apprenticeship In Hospitals Is Ger
tainly Very Trying.

Her Apprenticeship In Hospitals Is Ger
tainly Very Trying.
What mass of contradictions is one
single slender woman. Frightened at
a mouse, she yet dares to face mad
man. Almost in histories over mild
eyed COW, she will with greatest forti-
tude pass the still watches of the night
by the bedside of one who is consumed
by fever that may momentarily at
tack her. Womans sympathy and ten
derness are almost divine, and never
are they better exemplifed than in the
white-capped, ,low-voiced Sister of Mercy
who comes to our homes in times of
sickness and is known us the trained
nurse.
How dett the hand, how soft the
tread, and we look on and wonder at
the capable manner of woman who
still may have the trusting innocence
Of childhood in her tender eyes or may
betray the lines and furrows of care,
betokening tempestuous buffeting
with life's trials Whether she be young
or old, does it ever occur to us to inn
agine where she received the appren-
ticeship that makes her the efficient
woman we so much admire.
Long before the pleasant task OF
nursing in comfortable homes is
reached, the rigorous schooling in the
hospital, and the course OF medicine
must be thoroughly instilled, and it is
in this particular that the pluck and
sticl1-to-it-iveness of these frail women
is most especially surprising. They
have no choice of patients, old and
young, poor and dirty as a rule, sane or
raving with delirium-is matters not,
they one and all are part of the great
lesson to be learned. Yet is it not sur
prising that during these days of trial
many do not back out and let their
woman's nerves get the better of their
merciful desires?
Especially remarkable is this when
the almshouse calls them TO duty there
to soothe the brow of some drunken
pauper, TO dress the wounds of va
grant imbccile or assidiously wait on
the lowest of the low wasting away
with hasty consumption. Yet there
comes never q murmur from these will
ing martyrs, many of whom are women
of advanced confinement whose dainty
hands have never touched aught to soil
them, yet which in their chosen pro-
fession must come in contact with that
which is revolving even to the thoughts,
Women are mysteries that are past find
ing out, and the greatest riddle, yet
withal one of the most attractive, be-
cause SO utterly contradictory, is the
one that comes to us in sickness under
the garb of that human blessing known
as the trained nurse.
