Her Prolific Power.
In her own estimation, while the Hidden
Hand" was regarded with much favor, Mrs.
SCuthworth thought more of .Ishmael,"
story that is partly true. The character
Ishmael was a portrait of a well-known
man who became famous, and who was at
first woefully poor and forsaken. The de-
seription was SO well drawn that the indi-
v:dual was recognized, and though the
authoress never told whom she had in
mind. many people wrote to her in regard
to the person.
Up to few years ago. when Mrs. South
worth ceased her incessant labors, she had
the distinction of having produce ed IS many
novels as the years she had lived. She then
had q total of Saventy-three novels, forty
four of which were published in book FORM
and the remainder serials in the Ledger.
At the present time there are two unpub-
l;shed manuscripts of hers at Prospect Cot
tage. One was completed a few years ago,
and is named IAN Incarnate Fiend." The
other was more recently completed, the
authorsss being able to work but a short
time each day on 1t. The title Of the second
manuscript is IAN Angel Unawares" The
first-named is said to be a freer novel
than any ever written by Mrs Southworth,
Most of her previous stories were SO con-
structed as to please the tastes of the read
ers of the Ledger, but IAN Incarnate
Fiend'' is said to be without any embar-
rassment of style.
Potent AS an Educator.
Many of her books have been successfully
dramatized and "The Hidden Hand was
played in three London theaters at the
same time with profitable results For
thirty years she continued contributor for

A Hero at Home.

From the Topeka Capital.
Not all the heroes were at Santiago. One
of them came forward recently in Topeka
when the Santa Fe railroad found it nee
essary to reduce the force employed in the
freight department
Among those who were to Be discharged
was a man with wife and half dozen
children, and his salary was the family's'
only income. Lines appeared in his face
as the expiration of his term of service
drew near and his eyes told a story of
suffering and despair.
Dean Waters, fellow-employe, saw all
this. 1t made him sick at heart and his
folks saw that something was the matter,
but he kept his thoughts to himself For
a week he watched the other workman suf-
fer in silence, and at night he could not
sleep for thinking of the hardships in store
for this mans wife and little ones. Then
he made a resolve. Going to the head Of
ths department, he said:
IF l resign my position, will you keep
Mr.: Blank?"
Yes replied the head Of the depart
ment.
Accept my resignation" said Waters,
and he left the room without another word
