Juaaernaut Of the Rich.
Try r. i. Panel


San Francisco--Yo have all heard
how mean the rich were; how
they nailed their doors and windows
and refused admission to screaming
mothers whose babes afterwards died
in the cold rain at the parks of stricken
San Francisco. But l want to tell you
different tale.
On the first night of horror there
lived i'm little hut on Mission street
frail little woman who, for nights
and nights, had been attending Il sick
husband. BY o'clock the Mission re-
gion was in an uproar The wall of
fire was sweeping up the street. The
great thoroughfares roared with the
shouts of drivers, the shrieks of WONT
en-, the walls of children. Already
blazing shingles were pelting the roof
of the hut and the smoke and dust
came under the door in puffs.
A uniformed marine forced in the
door Get out!' he shouted. We're
going to dynamite this row of build
ingsy
Leave me. Save yourself. wife"
moaned the sick man on the cot For
answer, she bound him in the mattress
seized it by the corners. and dragged
him into the maelstrom of the side
walk. Block after block she dragged
him along. with the strength of mad
ness, but the crowd grew denser and
the sidewalk became clogged with eX-
hausted women and children Then she
dragged him into the street, but with
that her strength gave out and she
could but crouch on her knees beside
the bruised and writing body of her
husband. God or something kept the
grinding wheels and crushing hoofs
from her. but still up the street was
coming the great wall of raging flames.
The banks of smoke rolled over her.
The sparks showered upon the sick
man. Down a street to her right they
were shooting some cattle that had
broken loose from a pen and We're
trampling the human fugitives At
her left they were taking some women
from fallen shack and the poor Gre
atures ran or hobbled or craWled past
her. with bloody hands and faces.
Suddenly the woman on her knees
heard a loud "Honk! Honk!" and there
came creeping down upon her an auto
mobile, blood red in the glare of the

Gaping over the bodies the poor. The
rich himself guided the machine Be
side him sat child and on the rear
seat a woman. The body of the ma
chine was piled high with bric-a-brac,
costly rugs, fine porceiains, and satch
els.
The rich saw the poor on the mat
tress in the street and stopped. The
rich swept those precious things from
the machine, lifted husband, wife and
smoking mattress into their place and
resumed his flight.
A mile farther down toward the hills
the auto broke down. A woman stand
ing in the door of a mansion saw it,
Come right in. all of you" said the
rich woman, and they. are there now.
Today met the rich woman and the
woman of the hut on the street. The
rich carried a smoking ham, the other
a half-bag of potatoes. Dear hus-
band is doing nicely" said the little
woman, and locked in the eyes of the
other with look such as the cured

Heroic Treatment.
IBoston Herald. j


The late DR.. Gates b. Billiard, for
more than a generation the leading
physician at ST. Johnsbury, VT, did not
always rely upon drugs for cure. He
was of fine presence and heroic pro-
portions, and was a very picturesque
user of profane language when oc-
casIon made it expedient
Being called one night In the dead of
winter to the bedside of farmer who
had been suffering from an incessant
attack Of hiccoughs for three days and
was near death, he wrapped himself up
in his fur coat, pulled his fur hat down
over his face, leaving but little visible
besides his eyes and his whiskers, and
hurriedly drove away.
He dill not stop for preliminaries, but
entered the house and without word
passed into the sick room. Before the
invalid knew he was there he jumped
Oh the bed, grabbed him by the throat,
and, raising him from his pillow by the
neck, exclaimed: Oh you! want
you!'
The man not only survived heart
disease, but never hiccoughed again.
