The Love that Lasts.

In an old history of Sussex county in
England, strange incident is noted,
which, it is supposed, suggested to Ten
nyson his poem of "Rizpah."
In 1892 two men, Howell and Rock,
robbed mail coach on 8 lonely road near
the village of Sboreham.
Howell was an old aud hardened vii
lain, but Willy Rock was q simple lad of
weak intellect, whom the rogue used as a
tool.
His old mother appealed Tor mercy for
him, but in vain. Both men were con.
victed and executed, and according to
the savage habit of the time, Willy
Rocks tody was hung from the gibbet
in chains over the spot where the crime
was committed.
Every night for years his mother came
to this place, sitting in she storm and
darkness beneath the skeleton, which
swung to and fro in the wind. When at
last separated and slowly fell, she gath
cred the bones of her SOD, one by one,
and when she had them all, secretly
buried them in cousecrated ground where
her own could lie beside them.
The warden of one of our State peni
tentiaries where criminals are confined
for long terms of years, and
perhaps for life, was asked if they are
as a rule visited regularly by their
friends.
"No," was the reply, "they are usually
men who have been scurge aud dis
grace to their families. 1t is a relief to
be rid of them. Their friends, their
wives, and even children make one or
two perfunctory visits at 6r't aud then
give them up. In the course of year
or two, as rule, they are as forgotten 50
if they were in their cofins, except BY
their mothers.
"Their mothers always come and keep
coming, and try to influence me in their
behalf. No matter how black dyed in
crime ruffisn may be, his mother will
know some good point to tell me of
him. She never wholly looses faith in
him
Whoever the reader of these words
may be, whatever the road of life he is
pursuing, it would be we'll for him 10
stop aud think of the one human being
who had faith in him when be was q
chiId-who has faith in him now.
Has she comfort and happiness in her
SOD?
Or must she like the other poor moth
or, gather some Of the poor fragments of
his poor and and wasted life out from the
darkness and the storm to hide them
from the sight of men?"

Cowboys Will Ride.

OMAHA, NEB., March 21.-The cow
boys of Nebraska are all excitement, pre-
pairing for their great dash to Chicago.
1t is to be the biggest event in the annals
of the COW. punchers, and it will not lose
any of its size between now and the 1st
of May. Three hundred of them are
going to enter the race, and when it is
one the rides of the German and Austrian
military officers last year will be COM
pletely out of sight.
The prize aggregate $4,000 in cash,
which has been raised by the ranch own.
ers along the North Platte. The frat
prize is $4,000, and the cowboy who rides
into the fair grounds at Chicago ahead
of the others will bave that sum for his
pains. The second arrival will get 49,.
600; the third and fourth 1000 each.
The air line distance from the'point IF
departure to the goal is 800 miles. On
the morning CT May lst, the sun will rise
on 300 cowboys, astride their mustangs
just starting on their long jurney. The
ponies will be branded, and every rider
and his mount will be photographed be-
fore the start, in different positions, for it
is condition of the race that the entire
race must be covered on the same horse;
and photographs of the man and animals
as they arrive in Chicago, will be taken
for veri6cation by comparison with the
originals. A gun will fire and the riders
will start. How many will drop off after
the first few days. ride is matter of con-
lecture, but the winners must necessarily
be careful OF their horses. Interviews
with some of the intending riders show
that the more conservative among them
intend to begin the journey deliberately,

forty miles day, saving their horses

15O miles or thereabouts, when the

Chicago is overrun with idle men

ment that the Worlds Fair would prove
to be an Eldorado for those seeking EN-
ployment has drawn thousands OF single
and married men to this city. They had
very little money, which they soon spent,
and now they are suffering.

So much was she upset by the mystery
of the thing that she wrote for her sister,
Miss Anna Belle Rippledeane, to come
aud lend her company when Mr.. Bald.
wins business took him from her. The
young lady, a sprightly miss of Is, was
told nothing of what had happened, and
to her bright, sunshiny nature the unhap.
py lady trusted to drive from her mind
the delusion which she was beginning to
believe was the cause of her seeing this
ghastly figure. But on the day after her
arrival Miss Anna Belle destroyed this
hope by remarking to her sister that she
had seen lady in white walking down
the hall just before her and asking where
she had gone.
Her sister put her off with some trivial
explanation, but the next day Miss Rip.
pledeane came to her and Mr.. Baldwin
saying that she had just seen woman
dressed in white enter her bedroom and
that, following her into the apartment,
she had been unable to find any trace of
her. She insisted on her sister and Mr..
Baldwin accompanying her to the room
to aid her in further search. Mr. Bald.
win was much put out at what he consid'
cred a hysterical creation of his wife's
heated imagination and charged her with
having impaired to her sister the hallu-'
cination. Mrs. Baldwin denied this aud
being upheld in her statement by her
sister, the gentleman began also to look
uneasy and amazed.
He went at once to Miss Rippledeane's
room and searched in vain for the in--
truder. He refused to believe that it was
the spirit of bis dead wife, though Mrs.
Baldwin testified in her plea for divorce
that on one occasion she heard her hus.
baud speaking to someone whom he
called Rosamond, and to whom he
addressed prayer to go away and leave
him in peace On entering the room
she found her husband alone, as far as
she could see, and he became angry when
she asked him to whom he spoke,
denying that be had been talking to any
one.
