Prc-ailing Woman.

It is interesting to note the trades
and professions into which women are
more and more finding their way as a
matter of course. An up town stamp
agency of thepostoffice has recently come
into the care of young woman, and
in poHteness, promptness and care she
is happy contrast to the man that pre-
ce6ed her. Some small telegraph Offices
in various parts Of the town are in the
care of women, and the faces behind the
instruments are usually Of kind to
make one glad that women have taken
to telegraphy.

ticket office on the New York Central's s
Harlem division has been put in care of
a young woman, who already has a
nodding acquaintance with half the pa
irons of the Office. She occupies her lei
sure with novels and poetry and is an
object of interest to all that come and
go at the station.

Catherine Drexel.

A woman of much business ability is
Catherine Drexel, now nun. AS a
young woman she had control Of great
fortune, and, what is more, she spent
it after her own fashion, which, for the
most part, was in the way Of philan-
thropy. She is fervent Catholic, and
much Of her wealth went to found and
support missions among the negroes in
the south, in whom as southern wom-
an she felt an interest. 1t was through
this work that she herself was led to be-
come nun. 1t was not to be expected
that such woman would immerse her.
self in subordinate place in some OBJ
soure convent. Instead she used her
standing and influence to secure permis-
sion to establish new order of nuns of
which she was to be head. She had her
way. She retained full control of her
own money. She followed her own
plans with regard to her order and
spent her money in furtherance of them.
The new order, of which Miss Drexel is
superioress, is now fully established,
and the fact is duo to her fine business
qualities. Brooklyn Citizen.

CRUSHED BY A CABLE CAR
A. C. BUTLER RUN OVER ON
SPRING STREET,
he Stopped Whom the. Bell Sounded
and Was Caught by the
Dummy-His Injuries
Are Serions.

The list OF accidents at the corner of
Spring and First streets caused by cable
cars was swelled last night.
A. G. Butler. a laborer, residing at 1888
East Fifth street. was knocked down
aud run over by a cable Car as he was
crossing First street going south.
The injuries he received are very
serious and may cause his death.
Butler was standing still when the
dummy struck him. His own state
ment is that he heard some one call to
him. and just as he stopped and was
about to turn to see who had called the
Car struck him.
The gripman states that he saw But
ler walking across the track and rung
the bell violently to warn him of dan
ger and that instead of keeping on
across the track he stopped short and
the car was upon him before the breaks
could be applied or the grip loosened.
The gripman and those who witnessed
the accident are of the opinion that But
ler was perfectly sober when the acci-
dent occurred.
The front guard OF the dummy passed
over Buffers body and the dummy had
to be lifted before he could be gotten
from under the car. At the police sta
tien DR.. Bryant attended the man.
He wss bruised considerably about the
head. his breast bruised and cut in a
horrible manner. and one rib on the LETT
side broken. The most serious injury
was to the left leg, which was broken
above the knes joint, the knee cap dis
placed and deep, broad cash cut below
the knee.
The man just gave his name as Smith,
and requested that the matter be kept
from reporters. In his pockets were
several letters addressed to William
Williams, 12l1 Devisidora street, San
Francieco, but there seems to be no
doubt as to his identity as A. G. Butler.
N. A. Lynch. the gripman OF the car,
and Joseph Ancell, the conductor, we're
arrested but allowed to go on their own
recognizance.
If the statements of the gripman and
several bystsnders are true no blame
whatever can attach to the gripmsn.
The cable company requires its gripmsn
to secure . firm hold on the rope in
turning this corner, 60 that the utmost
speed which the cars can attain is at
talnsd on this curve. It has always
been considered a dangerous place end
the company. as we'll as the city council,
has been requested to regulate the
matter.

They Are Found to Be of Little Prac-
tical Effect.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-The trans
formation OF the dynamite cruiser Ve-
suvius into a torpedo boat, which was
delayed in order to profit by the expert
ment now making with the dynamite
guns at Sandy Hook, will at once proceed
according to the original plan. Captain
Sampson, chief of the ordnance bureau.
who personally witnessed the Sandy
Hook tests, has returned hers, and
while satisfied the dynamite game, as
they are mounted on the train and ele-
waiting carriages, are all that the inven-
tors claim, still he has been confirmed
in his belief that they are not suitable for
use on ships. The drawbacks to such
use are the great weight of the guns and
compressors, and the valuable space
occupied, the short range OF the weap.
ons, and the impossibliity OF aiming
themswithout turning the whole ship;
besides the ordnance bureau has been
meeting great success in It's Efforts to
develop the use OF nigh explosive shells
in ordinary rifle guns. It has already
accomplished the projection OF six-inch
shell, charged with high explosive at
q speed OF 1400 feet per second over a
distance of four miles, and if the l2.inch
rife performs as we'll with 200 pound
charge OF dynamite and its superior
accuracy and long range, it will be much
more efficient for ship use than any
other form OF gun.

THE FAMILY GOAT.
An Unappreciatcd MILK Producer Whose
Forage Is Cheap.


Forage Is Cheap.
The goat as a milk producer is hardly
appreciated in this country. But in the
old world the family goat is only less
esteemed than tho family COW. The milk
is considered better than that from Jer-
sey cows for culinary purposes.
There is moreover, one great advan-
tage in goat keeping over cows. 1t is
this-that a COW usually provides a
much larger quantity of milk than can
be utilized in its natural state in the
household, the consequence being that
either portion must be converted into
butter so many times week. necessitat-
ing labor which is not always profitable
and frequently unsatisfactory in its re.
suits, or some Of the milk has to be sold,
entailing other inconveniences
With goat, on the contrary, this
difficulty can never arise. A good speci-
men will generally provide a small
household with enough milk for general
use during eight months of the year.
Were the plan once started no doubt
many American village dwellers who
cannot afford to keep COW would find
that milk goat would answer the pur-
pose fairly well.
Goats will consume leaves and rough
forage that cows will not touch, and
they are sure to get a good living Sc
long as any digestible material is with
in their reach. &c. @. Hills in Massa.
