A Fighting Angel of Mercy.

Chicago News: A pretty woman attired
in sealskins and diamonds, belaboring a
bowling expressman with heavy whip
was sight that attracted hundreds of
spectators to the intersection of Wabash
avenue and Adams street the other day.
few moments before the horsewhipping
began the expressman was driving
poor, broken down horse east on Adams
street. His wagon was heavily loaded
with household goods two or three stoves
and a number of trunks being among the
stuff. The load was also too great for
the starved looking horse to haul, and
the driver was curSing the poor brute
and belaboring it with a heavy whip at
every step. A number of citizens called
to MIN to stop when near Wabash ave-
nue., and for reply he turned the whip
about and used the handle on the jaded
beast. AT this point a handsome, styl-
,shly dressed woman ran into the street
and called on the brutal driver to stop.
He paid no attention and as his whip
descended once more she seized il and
pulled it from his grasp. He jumped from
his wagon with a curse and number
of men rushed into the street to interfere.
The young woman, who afterward gave
her name as Miss Warner. pushed them
aside and with flashing eyes and flushed
cheeks commenced to belabor the express
man over the head with the butt end of
the whip. Once, twice, three times it FELL
and the blood spurted from deep cuts
IN his face. Still she did not desist, and

THE OLD, OLD STORY.

They met last night at a crowded hall,
1t was ten years since they parted:
They both remembered that anguished
time
When they thought they were broken
hearted.
'You haven't changed in the least" he
said.
AS he noted the gray in her hair.
And the rouge that took the place of the
blush
On her cheek that had been so fair.
"Nor your' she answered, with a smile,
AS she wondered how she ever
Could have cared for man so common
She could understand it neveri
And they talked to each other a little
while,
And both were intensely bored,
And he thanked the fates for his sweet
young wife,
And she for her present lord.

women lost in effectiveness during the
recent campaign through their lack of

have felt the want of competent leaders

October, Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton
proclaimed her faith in the cause of free
silver, and announced her intentions of
organizing New York women of like
mind to do work similar TO that in which
the Republican women have been en-

THE HARVEST.

IT'S a blessed toll from the teeming soil
To garner nations bread.
Let the farmers sing at their harvesting,
For by them tho world is fed.
Though banks may fail and in ruins gale
Every Spectator reel,
The fruitful sod is the bank of God,
And its wealth 10 knave can steal.
When the rain and sun their good work have
done
In the grainfelds far and wide,
Lo, the reaper bands with armed hands
Through the topping harvests glide,
And the swaths of gold from the cradles rolled
Gild the soil by the scythes laid bare
AS ridges of mist by the sunlight kissed
Gid the broader fields Of air.
The binders 1.-THE who follow the scythe
For the treasures it crops and leaves
As with laugh and song they hurry along
Leave wake of yellow sheayes,
But the happiest scene is the last ween,
When over the yielding loan,
The last load Is borne from the fields close
shorn,
For then is the Harvest Home
Oh, were the lord Of acres broad
With the strength my land to till,
I'd follow the pillow with a beaded brow
And renounce the "gray goose quill"
For of fields Of thought, though with patience
wrought,
The harvest oft is spurned,
But the seeded field with solid yield
Pays for every furrow turned.
