DoRRlS' SHOE STRINGS.

On Doris feet
Are the smallest Of twos,
But surely some elf
Has enchanted her shoes,
For, wherever we 20,
Walk, row or ride,
In church or at tennis,
Her shoes come united.
At times IL Is trying,
But what can do
When poor Doris murmurs.
"Oh. bother that shoem
So down | must flop
In the dust and dirt
To tie up the shoe
OF that dear little flirt.
These precious girl tyrantsl
We cannot rebel,
For even their ribbons
Are filed with their spell.
Since old fashioned aprons
No longer they use,
They tic n poor man
To the strings Of their shoes.

From the Boston Transcript.
A reading OF a line Of Browning's

Society, was offered, in all honesty,
the other day, by a young gentle
man reading aloud TO a young lady
at her request-need say she was

icated his "Men and Women" to
his wife.

standing and unquestionabiy ac-
cepting it, not a refined implement

of the dressing-table. Nothing
can ever make that line aa.ain, for
that young women, fit int a poets
dream. Nor will he eversbe asked
to read Browning to her more.

DUE TO REVENGE
Buck Tong Kills Lee Sing on a
Pacific Steamer.
A HIGHLANDER MURDERER
Brother of the Victim Swears to Have
Tho Assassin's Biood--Prisoner to
He Taken to San FrancIsco.

News comes from Yokohoma that the
recent murder on the steamer City of
Picking by Chinese was highlander
assassination for revenge. Buck Tong,
the murderer, was found two days after
the vessel sailed from San Francisco in
the ladies' cabin. He was ordered out
by the cabin boy, but refused to 20 and
stabbed the lad. He also slashed the
chief engineer, but not seriously. Then
he ran forward, and in passing Lee
Sing, Chinese passenger, he lunged
his knife like sword, cutting through
windpipe and jugular and nearly sever
Ing the head from the body. The poor
Chinese fell to the deck, blood squirting
from his wounds, and was dead in few
minutes. The murderer was caught and
ironed.
At first it was supposed that he had
been crazed by opium smoking, but wit
nesses said that he shouted when he
stabbed Lee, snow l have got you."
Buck also admitted that Lee had swim
died him out of 81 900 in San Francisco.
The authorities at Yokohoma believe
Buck was put on board at San Francisco
by highlander society to kill Lee. He
Is very tough looking coolie and when
the steamer reached Yokohoma he
showed his ferocity.
The American consul general and on
GERS of the steamer went on board the
Picking to take Bucks testimony. He
was handcuffed and In a cabin. When
the party entered he suddenly sprang
like wild beast on the chief officer and
hit him on the head with a sharp piece
of an earthen vessel that he had broken
for this purpose. Then he tried to bat
ter out his own brains, but did not sue
coed. The chief officer was badly hurt.
Members of the ships crew don't think
Buck is insane, as he was quiet before
he committed the second crime. He
will be returned to San Francisco on
the steamer Picking, but the officers
fear that he will never reach there
alive, as a brother of Lee Is on board
and has sworn to have his blood.

THIS MAN NEEDS HELP NOW.
PitffuI Tale of the Sorrows Under Which
Man Is Bowed.

CHICAGO, May 12.-William Cherst-
man, of 309 Fulton street, Is in seri.
Gus difficulty owing TO destituion and
sickness and death in his family. With
his wife and three children Cherstman
lived In single room In a lodging
house at that number and despite the
fact that he was out OF employment
lived happily up to last Monday. AT
that time his s-year-old daughter was
taxed Ill, and health officers who dag
nosed the case said that she had small
pox and the child was removed to the
pesthouse. The next day his 6-year-
old daughter was taken i'll with typhoid
fever, and died after two days sick
ness. Cherstman had no money to
bury the child, and without money
unable to secure the services of an
undertaken, although several were APP
piled to. The body of the child lay on
little table In the corner of the room.
Modification had already set in and
the other occupants of the lodging
house were greatly alarmed, fearing
contagion. They visited Cherstman in
body and requested the body to be
removed, threatening unless it were to
throw 1t into the street. As last re-
sort he visited the health office late In
the evening apd requested the assis-
lance of the officials. They referred
him to the county hospital authorities,
saying that dead wagon would be
sent to his house. The county hospital
authorities said they could not handle
the body, owing to the contagious
nature of the disease which had caused
death.
Cherstman returned to his home
heart broken TO watch beside the little
corpse and protect it from the ruth
less hands of his neighbors.
