Mrs. Pete Amsterdam of Harlem is one
of the most philanthropic ladies on Man
haitian island. She is always hunting up
distressed people in order to comfort them,
and it often happens that her kind atten-
tions are not properly appreciated.
Not long since she visited an unfortunate
on the rocks near One Hundred and Six
teenth street. The woman's head was tied
up, and her eye was blackened, and she had
one arm in sling.
II hear" said Mrs Pete Amsterdam,
that your brutal husband beats you, and
/ have called to see if we can not have him
punished"
You are mistaken, madam; my husband
never beats me. We have lived together
15 years, and he has never beaten me yet, !"
and the woman adjusted her arm in the
sling.
Il am SO glad to hear that am mis-
taken," replied the female philanthropist.
No" continued the woman sadly, put
ting the bandage over the eye, she has new
er struck me a blow yet. He has kicked
me in dozen different places 40 different
times; he has taken me by my two ears
and bumped my head on the floor or on
the corner of the mantelpiece; he has poured
hot water down my back, pulled out my
hair by the handful, and he has stuck pins
in me; he feeds his dog in my new Sunday
bonnet, but he has never yet beat me, and

The visitor then withdrew without say

through an interpreter that the scouts

1t was strange fate that took Davy
Crockett to martyrdom in the Alamo
Around him mustered four acquaintance

an ex-pirate of the gulf, an Indian, ro-
mantle young bee hunter who was to die in
battle singing of the girl he had left behind
(Kate of Nacogdoches) and gambler whom
he had reformed by a caustic eXhortation
to redeem his vile past by noble death.
In the old mission house of the Alamo
Travis beleaguered few We're praying for
requirements, and Crockett's arrival
through the Mexican lines was hailed as a
godsend. One morning during the bonn
bardment, with his unerring "Betsy"-the
rifle that was his pride-he shot down one
after another five Mexican gunners before
they could apply the match, and their com
rades abandoned the piece in terror. Again
with the bee hunter and two others he
sailed out of the fort to rescue the pirate
who was returning with message from a
distant fortress and bad been cut Off by 20
MeXicans.
The rescue party was speedily surrounded.
Crockett, clubbing his rifle, cried out, "Go
aheadP' and dashed into the enemy. They
cut their way back to the fort, leaving eight
dead Mexicans to mark their pathway, but
the pirate and bee hunter got their death
wounds in the struggle, Crockett lived to
fight heroically in resisting the massacre
that followed the surrender and was cut
down by a dozen Mexican sabers as he
sprang like panther at the throat Of Santa
Anna, who ordered the fendish butchery.
