He went down to the breakfast table

reproaches in her eyes, but she did not
scold him. She wanted to inform him

that you came very near killing us all

as he felt his hot forehead.
"Well, you did. You knocked over
the baby's cradle. Then you blew
out the gas and we were nearly as.
phyxiated. What do you think Of
that"
Her husband is usually a resourceful
man, but the fumes OF many cocktails
taken the night before somewhat cloud
ed his intellect. He made Il grand
brace and tried to look pathetic.

alton burst through his foggy brain,

was recently broken by singing. The
man who did it had deep, full voice.
He set the glass on the table, stood be-

as though in search of note. When
he settled on one rather high the glass
shook visibly. The note was repeated,
sung as loudly as possible, and finally
the glass shivered and crashed into bits.

crew force has ever had to per-
form in this vicinity was the restoration
of traffic on the Pennsylvania Railroad
after the Johnstown flood in 1891, The
railroad was swept away by the burst
ing of the South Fork dam. Bridges
We're destroyed, trains and tracks were
carried some distance from the road
bed and the debris from the flood cover
ed everything In sight. In just eleven
days from the time Of the disaster the
Pennsylvania wrecking forces had put
everything in good working order. They
built 5000 lineal feet OF trestle work,
from Is to So feet in height, and laid
$4,000 lineal feet of main railroad track,
exclusive of 5000 sdings, with their
switches and connections.
The work required heavy grading and
the removal of the debris brought down
with the torrent was an immense un-
dertaking alone. This wrecking force
rebuilt the telegraph lines and connect
ed them with the regular offices. To do
this work and get the line of eemmuni-
cation open required the stringing of
eighty-five miles of wires. A water
tank and pumping station We're install
led and large number OF deralled cars
We're retracked. Several heavy engines
were recovered and on their own wheels
hauled to the company shops at Altoo-
ma for repairs. Besides the genera OF

AZ track foremen. line foremen, 4S
linemen and $50 track laborers.
The total force employed in clearing
up this fearful devastation consisted of
thirty-nin officers and 1,l96 men. NO
wreck on that line has compared In mag
nitude with the one mentioned, but
many smaller ones have occurred that
obstructed the traffic of the road FOR
short time. A train loaded with grain for
export was recently wrecked above
Johnstown, and to speedily clear the
track for the movement OF the business
of the road, the cars, with their con-
tents, were sent fire to and gotten out
of the way Of the trains. The wreck
occurred at a point where the cars
could not be tumbled over the bank and
their contents reloaded and the quicker
and cheaper way was to consume the
obstruction.
Ordinarily great care is taken to save
the contents of the cars, and watch
man, who Is generally one OF the rail-
road companys detectives, is station
ed at the wreck to prevent any OF the
becoming the prey OF
thieves. Goods that are not damaged
by the wreck are forwarded to the con-
signee and delivery made In case they
show signs of the experience they nave
had, claim Is made by the consignee

ABOUT A NEW ITALIAN POET.

| Ada Negri and Her Humble Beginnings.
| 1t is only few years, uot more than
! six, / believe. since young poetess
flashed like a new star on the literary
! world of Italy. This girl, hardly out of
her teens unknown, humble, virtuous,
the mistress of a school in one of the
far northern Italian villages which even
the wheels Of tram had not reached,
without any editorial flourish of trum-
pets, without powerful patronage, with
out benevolent and interested friends
with only a bundle of leaves sewn to-
gether in white volume, has succeeded
in gaining a literary triumph, not in
her own country alone, but throughout
the greater part of Europe. In every
corner of Italy, indeed, voices are raised
in wonder and praise at the supreme
power of the poems-their strength and
beauty-that have had their birth in
the heart and brain of the schoolmis-
tress of Motta- Visconti.
Ada Nesri is the daughter of poor
laborer. one who worked in the mines.
and her mother was a weaver of wool,
who, though often weary and always
feeble, worked incessantly in a manu-
factory. bearing up braVely against
circumstances because she was working
for her daughter, who wished to study.
The poor toler in the wool factory,
guided simply by maternal instinct,
and by the Judgment Of the mistress of
the asylum where her little daughter
was sent for two years, saw in her shild
a genius and a courage far above the
common. She gave her the opportunity
of studying in the normal school of
Lodi, while she Wore out her own exist
ence in the wool factory to secure for
Ada a happy future. The loving
mother remained at her daily toll with
this object, alternating her arduous
work with enforced rest in the wards
of the hospital, where she as at one
time laid up for Il months, among
those who were received within lis
walls becaused threatened with con-
sumption.
At the age of Is Ada was summoned
to teach in the college for girls at
Cologne. where she was lodged, and
where she received every month 20 lire.
Here she remained a year, when she
was appointed to the post of mistress at
Motta- Visconti. For seven years she
taught by day and wrote her lyrics of
love ard sorrow and sympathy by
night. So she lived and toiled for seven
years, when al last the hour of justice
struck, and the tardy reward came in
sudden recognition and fame-The

MARKETING WITH A DIME.

| Ten cehts is a small fund with which
to do days marketing for a family of
three, but there are families on the
east side who make a dime purchase
food enough for twenty-four hours.
Friday is market day on the east side,
and if you want to see marketing that
is marketing, with keen competition and
close dealing, with the cent as meas
ure of value, go on that day into the
Essex and Hester-streets district-the
most populous in the world-where
small shops abound and push cart ped
dlers congregate, and you will see a
sight to be witnessed at no other place
on earth.
I went with a Rivington-street house
keeper into an Essex street butcher
shop, and saw her spend at least five
minutes in purchasing half pound Of
corned beef, for which she paid four
cents. 1t was good, full weight, and
she insisted that bit Of meat no larger
than the nickel she handed the butcher
should be put on the scale after 1t was
down.
She was marketing for Sunday for
her family of three persons. Corned
beef hash was evidently in her mind,
for she went to cart in the street and
bought pound of potatoes, for which
she paid one cent and had most des-
perate argument as to the size of the
last one, put on the scale for good
weight. She had her way, and the
dealer said something about a woman
She had spent half of her ten cents,
and next purchased from sidewalk
stand one pound of black bread, cut
from loaf that weighed about ten
pounds, and paid two cents for it.
Then she went to another cart and
bought half a pound of white beans for
q cent, and three-quarters of pound of
corn meal for another cent She had
one cent left, and that went for four
somewhat ancient looking tomatoes
Her dime was gone, and she disap-
peared in the throng with her purchases
and threaded her way to rear tene-
ment in Rivington street,-New York
