PitIable specimens of Humanity.

One of the most pitiable sights imagin-
able is that of man who has become
addicted to the morphine habit. But to
see woman in the same predicameRt
seems far worse. This morning two
such individuals, woman and a man,
were wandering about our streets and
told their tale of woe to several citizens.
They claim they are on their way
to Pendleton from Portland, having
walked all the way and having nothing TO
eat for several days were about starved.
1t is said they looked it too.
This fearful habit seems to So numb
the senses that they care little what
they tell, nor whether it be true, so that
it " as hard to discover whether they
were stating facts or not. But the
sympathy of many was elected, and one
gentleman FASTENED home to procure
something tor. them to eat. They said
they were stopping in the old brick
building at the foot of Washington
etreet; but when provisions were taken
to them they were no where to be found.
1t was the intention to provide means
to send them on their way While it
seems unjust that law-abiding, upright
citizens should be compelled to help
along characters of this kind, humanity
demands it and we instinctively do so,
not stopping to question.
