chimneys began to fall all around and
the noise for minute or so was deaten-
ing. Occasionally I could hear the
shrieks Of women above the din, and
soon people began to rush into the streets
in their night clothes. They were ter

but as soon as the shock passed away the
men in the party regained their nerve al

highly excited state and would not re-

The TACT that no one was killed and

It is great pity that the case Of every
drunken woman that comes before the
different charitable and philanthropic
associations of New Orleans to say nothing
of the police courte, could not be referred to
the Woman's Christian Temperance Union
for kind treatment, good influence, SYM
pathy and settlement Every good, moral
woman, Of whatever station in life, exerts
over certain circle an immense influence
for good. and when such woman, in a
wise, kind and sisterly way, reaches out to
save or protect one Of her own sex, the
work never goes wholly unrewarded. 1t has
been said by experts who ought to know the
truth that the most irrevocable and hope
less human object is a woman who drinks.
Then the more need to protect sucha woman
from her own vice. and to rescue her chill,
dren from its consequences. Incorporate
women frequent the shy neighoorhoods Of
great city. They are pariahs even there,
hooted at by boys and men, and stunned by
other women. No one helps them or gives
them chance, and the only recognition of
them is when they are arrested and sent to
Jail for ten days. Not long since there was
reported at meeting Of the Society for the
Prevention Of Cruelty to Children the case
Of drunken mother found in gin shop,
while her five little children were huidied
on a door step during a dreadful rain.
Finally the Oldest girl succeeded in coaxing
the wretched, reeling woman into the street
and to the poor place they called home.
Here, indeed, was case for the temperance
union or the splendid Catholic TOTAL
Abstinence Society. AS for the Woman's
Temperance Union. its strength and in
fuence lie largely in the list Of its members.
In matters Of morality what good women
think speedily becomes public opinion, and
the ladies who compose this union could not
possibly do better than to pledge them
selves Individually to bring in each list Of
twelve new signers of the pledge. The
twelve should be women, and each one ct
the twelve should also pleige herself to

DANGER TO HARD DRINKERS.

A really terrible danger to hard drinkers
seems to be becoming rapidly more an more
prevalent. 1t is congestion OF the lungs,
says the Washington Post. Unless an au-
topsy Is made the victim Of this disease is
frequently thought to have died from heart
disease, the outward symptoms being not
unlike. But q post mo-tem examination re-
veals the truth.
One day recently two men, one white, the
other colored, died this silent, insidioas death,
but few hours apart. The white mau came
home late, very drunk, and either fell dead
on thefoor or lay on the floor in drunken
slumber with his clothes on, and died as he
slept. The circumstances Of tbs colored
mans death were almost identical. In each
case post mortem examination was made
by Deputy Corone-: Schae6er, and both
deaths were found to haye been from coa-
gestion of the lungs. r.5G
The heart, stimulated beyond its capacity
by hard drinking, weakens as the effects Of
the stimuIant wear Of, and at last bs:onss
unable to pump the blood. The stagnaat
blood coagulates, and the victim Is smoth-
cred. r....
All this ray come from Other causes mo-
tably when the hearts action Is checke by
excessive cold. But extreme continual al

Oil Calming Turbulent Waves.

The German sailboat Julio Theodore
met with terrible weather near Cape
Horn. Both wind and waves were so
violent as to make the vessel nearly un.
manageable. The captain determined to
use oil, although previous experiments
with it had failed to give very good re-
suits. He had tried all the patent in
struments for giving out oil, but none OF
them had acted satisfactorily. So he
tried another way. He had the pipes OF
the closets in the fore part of the vessel
stopped up with oakum and then filed
the closets with oil, which percolated
slowly through the oakum and reached
the surface of the water slowly and in
very small quantities at time. The ef-
feet thus produced was almost milacu-
lous. Turbulent as the. sea was all
around, it was so quiet in the immediate
vicinity of the bark that hardly any seas
broke over the vessel and hut little water
was shlpped.-Chicago Herald.

The Chinese quarter, consisting OF
wooden shanties, was not injured and the
inhabitants in very few places left their
beds. One Cbinamau thought the anti
Mongolian agitators were after him and
ran out to seek protection from a police
man. When he found that merely an earth
quake was taking place he went back to
bed.
1t was an earthquake disting uished by
the loudness of the noises that accom-
panied it. sulphurous flames burst from
assures in the ground and this strength
ened the impressi that the shock was
of internal origin. Two or three slight
shocks, which did little serious damage
but were not felt without distrust by the
people, occurred on subsequent days.
Twenty or more towns and villages IN
the State were damaged. San Francisco
was slightly shaken.
The towns of Dixon and Winters suf-
fered most severely, after Vacavllle. AT
Dixon fire broke out in Brown & Cole
mans grocery through the ignlting
of a can of matches which fell on
the floor, Fires were very rare, how
ever. At the hour when the shock came
there were not many lighted lamps.
John Dugau's dry goods store was trst
badly damaged, and then the wall OF the
Masonic Temple fell on it. A fire fol-
lowed, and the services of the Fire De-
partment we're needed. The remainder
of the Masonic Temple was pulled
down.
The new Baptist Chapel in this place
was ruined. Of John Kempfkes saloon
nothing but o wall was left. Thus 1t
will be seen, says Western philosopher,
that there was no discrimination.

The Richest Woman In the World.

The richest woman in the world-such
sh, has long been acknowledged-is
Dona Isadora Cousino, sometimes known
as the "Cresus of South America" Her
various homes are in and near Santiago
in Chile. She traces her ancestors back
to the days of the Spanish conquest. She
has been a widow for about ten years !;
but even during her husbands lifetime
she managed her own property, worth
many millions, which came from her an
cestral estates.
The Cousino estate-now representing
the property of Ter late husband, as well
as her own, with the increments due to
her executive ability, which is said to be
greater even than were her husbands,
consists of millions of money in bank,
of cattle and sheep, of coal mines, of
copper and silver mines, of iron steam
ships, of real estate in the cities of San
tiago and Valparaiso, of smelling works,
of railroads and farming lands.
From her coal mines alone Sonora
Cousino is said to have an income OF
$50; 900 month, or 1850, 900 a year.
This income from one form of wealth
alone represents a branch of her estate
which should be considered, at fair
capitalization of its income, to amount
to $25, 900, 900. The extent of her coal
mine property, however, is known only
to herself; but whereas it costs only
81. .35 ton to mine her coal, she readily
realizes for it $3.50 ton. Her own fleet
of eight iron steamships carries her coal
end ore to market.
She owns every house in the town Of
Lota, which has 1000 inhabitants, also
nine-tenths of the houses in the mining
town of Soronel. The town of Lota is
her favorite residence. There she has a
magnificent mansion in the centre Of the
finest private park in the world. 1t is
supplied with all the luxuries that un-
told wealth can procure, brought to her
very doors from the ports of Europe,
Asia and Africa by her own steamships.
She has another park and palace about
an hours drive from Santiago on the
finest plantation in Chile.
Her vineyard at Macul has upon it a
single cellar 500 feet long by 100 wide,
which is kept constantly full of wine,
and supplies the markets of all Chile.
She has another large estate about
thirty miles from Santiago, also great
town house in that city built mostly of
red cedar brought from California. This
house is decorated by Partisan artists; it
is said, by those who have seen it, to be
finer than any residence in New York
City.

THE PARTING AT THE GATE.
BY JOHN DE WITT.

When the train is almost going,
And you hurry lest you re late,
have you ever watched O parting,
Someone parting at the gate?
You can scarce suppress your laughter
Such q feeling some create,
While at times q tear will glisten
At some parting at the gate.
There's the old maid with the bundles,
Who will prate, and pirate, and prate,
Who will ask the gateman questions,
While she makes the rest all wait,
Till you see his brows contracting,
In his eyes CLEAN OF hate,
As he hurries up her parting,
While she hustles through the gate.
There's the mother with the glasses,
Who'll get left as sure as fate,
Just arriving with her daughter
The last minute at the gate.
And the matron with the children;
Let us count them. There are eight;
She hos little time for parting.
She must get them through the gatss
There's doctor and lawyer,
Coming near in deep debate,
Who express regret at parting
In q manner most sedate,
Then q school-boy with his satchel,
And schoolgirl with her slate;
Bee them wave q CHEEKY parting
To some friends without the gate.
There's the gay commercial travlers
With O look that seems to state,
I'm the owner OF this railroad;
Milage takes him through the gate'
While maiden, dainty fairy,
Whom he watches through the gate'
Smiles very pleasant parting
Back Of mother at the gate.
Then two actors playing heavies
Come with Henry Irving gait,
From tho way they keep yawning
should say they'd sat up late.
And they look around in anger
When they find that they must wait
On the man who has the tickets
That will pass them through the gate.
Then Q shy and bsshful daughter
Comes with father bald Of pate,
And looks back tender parting
At the lover at the gate,
While the newly married couple,
Looking most affectionate,
Clasp their hands and kiss at parting,
AS they hnger at the gate.
Then nm old decrepit father,
On whom years have laid their weight,
Totters up, the while q leaning
On the son so tall and straight.
And be looks so fondly at him;
Will that boy prove an tngratef
And forget that loving father,
And the parting at the gateP
Then q wife who takes journey,
How she hates to separate
From that husband, tender, loving,
Who has been unfortunate.
How the heavy circles gather
Meath those eyes with fear dlate.
All | she has q fearful parting.
Calling -Mizpah" through the gate.
And the thought comes sadly to me,
Thinking Of our future state,
VIII we have to part with loved ones
As we stand without the gate?
Not with Jesus, blessed Savior,
Ahl the Masters love is great,
Hand in hand well travel with him;
he will pass Us through the gate.
