Creditable.

This story is told by resident OF
Maryland, who vouches for its genu.
ineness:
During the last session of Congress
two young ladies endeavored to gain
access to the Senate gallery. The
equity old doorkeepr told them that
every seat was filled and the only
chance was to see some Senator they
knew and get card which would ad.
init them to the private gallery.
But we don't know single Sena-

dies.
Then that Is to your credit, young
ladies'. Walk right in. 1t is not often
we see such ladies around the Capt.

But what am 7?
An infant crying in the night;
An infant crying for a light

And with no language but cry
Just as the child wakes in the night
and, feeling the blackness huge and
empty about him, cries out into the
gloom for companionship and love. and
the father comes and takes the child
in his arms and, with confident voice,
soothes away the childish fears, so Of
tentimcs we children of earth feel the
darkness of life Cypress our souls and
cry out for the strong arms of heav-
enly Father. Why should we be
ashamed to acknowledge this hunger
ashamed to acknowledge the hunger of
the body? How. especially in the
midst of trouble, the heart hungers for
its Father. When the clods fall upon
the coffin lid, how the soul cries, "My
GOd-my God" How, when the clouds
Of adversely gather dense-when the
cherished ambitions of lifetime prove
futile; when the fortune which was to
make the years of old age bright takes
to itself wings how, when the familiar
| friend lifts up his heel against one
the heart cries out. "Oh, God-my
God" And even in the sunshine and
the joy of life, when everything seems
to be bright and beautiful and full of
promise of future joy, there will come
moments when 1t all seems empty and
meaningless and the soul cries out for
| God.
Ny memory goes back to my own
young manhood, and recall day that
was more than usually beautiful, when
stood alone by the sea. l had every
reason to be happy. had found my
place in the world; had q work to do
and the future seemed full of promise.
My health was perfect, and had not
been disappointed, even in my boyish
dreams. And yet / recall the awful
loneliness and emptiness Of the hour
/ had but to walk mile to be well
coined by true and tried friends. But
l stood there lonely and homesick.
There flashed into my mind the dreary
words:
U we poor children OF nothing, alone on
this lonely shore,
Born of a brainless nature who knew not
that which she bore.
And | remember that threw myself
on the grass there with the sunshine
all over Inc and birds singing about
me, with everything apparently, to-
make me happy, in the depth of my
loneliness l felt like child who had
lost its mother. What more did Il

Pundita Ramabai.

That new woman of India, Pundita
Ramabai, deplores the spread of the so
called Hindoo philosophy among the
women of America. She says if they
really knew what it means they would
spurn it as degrading and demoraliz-
ing. Ramabai certainly knows, for she
studied it till she became a pundita.
She next came to America and In Phil
adelphia acquired the learning freeborn
American women are permitted to get
Then Miss Ramabai FASTENED back to
her own land to help the hapless fe-
male sex there. To enable her better
to do this she studied medicine in the
United States. Her labors are espe-
cially among the despised, hopelessly
outcast widows Of India.
At Poona, India, the pundita main
tains a school for girls, and in this
school are 800 child widows. In India,
the pundita tells us, there are about
10000 child widows, some of them no
more than four years old. A widow OF
any age in India is accursed, social
outcast so long as she lives. 1t Is con-
sidered, indeed, that she has no Dusl-
ness to be living still on earth when
her husband may be needing her to
cook for him and wait on him in heav-
en-. The only decent, respectable thing
for her to do under the circumstances
is to die, so she can go and be the
slave of her lord and master in heaven.

Woman That Wanted to Pay Santo
Domingo's Debts Wants Damages.

NEW YORK, March 21.-Mrs. Ella
Rawls Reader, the beautiful young
woman, who failed to negotiate a deal
to relieve the debts of the distresse
republic of Santo Domingo because OF
the sudden interference of the United
States, spent a busy day today with
her attorneys. Just what the next
step will be in the case Mrs. Reader
does not know.
After a conference with H. John Del
ahanty, her chief counsel, Mrs. Reader
was asked if she proposed any action
against William Nelson Cromwell for
breach of confidence. she said:
81 surely do not know. How can ]
procure it?'
1T has been intimated that Sir
Thomas Upton is interested in some OF
your ventures" asked the reporter.
Friend of Sir Thomas Upton.
Nov 1 remember where 1 saw you
before" said Mrs. Reader. 1T was
on Sir Thomas Liptons yacht. But
really Sir Thomas is not interested in
my company.
L have many friends in England and
they are interested with me. Please
say that Sir Thomas is not a business
associate of mine.''
rs it true that you had some con-
nection with the Panama uprising, and
were you interested in bringing ii
about?"
NO; 1 nave never been interested in
Panama. 1 have a mining proposition
in Peru
"Then you are not certain whether
you will bring action against Mr.
Cromwell?'
Wanted to Be Rich.
Mr. Cromwell is rich and powerful
man." replied Mrs. Reader. Il thought
was going to be rich, too with my
Santo Domingo proposition, but il
seems otherwise and 1 am still poor
Counsel for Mrs. Reader declined to
permit her to talk further and the
interview was closed.
Mrs. Reader wore dark blue tailor
made gown and a Lack hat.
William Nelson Cromwell mas issued
a statement in which he emphatical-
ly declares that he does not know Mr.
or Mrs. Reader and has now or never
has had an interest with them in re-
gard to Santo Domingo contracts
Il have had no understanding with
Mr.. or Mrs. Reader, respecting any
Santo Domingo NATTER he declared
I do not know Mrs. Reader. I have

ferred with any of the officials of the

OLD GLORY ON
 FACE MOUNTAIN

From the point of the nose on Face mountain there flies an American flag. old Glory was planted firmly upon that highest point of the most unique of the rugged mountains that surround Skag' way, Sunday, by J. N. Gearhart and Robert Sheldon, two of the most agile of Skagway's mountain climbers.
 It was DO light task to scale the $500 feet from the shores of Lynn canal to the top of Face mountain. It took eight hours of hard work to accomplish the feat and 1t was done only on the second attempt. Two weeks ago Rob ert Sheldon and Clyde Talbot made an attemp, to place the flag where 1t now flies, but they started on the wrong trail and failed to make their objective point.
 Only few people have made the as- cent the full heighth of Face mountain and this IS the first time a fla : ever perched upon it's topmost peak,
