The Derelict

1t is a drab and grim retreat to
which the hopheads stray; and
Evelyn, orce fair and sweet, went
there the other day; once, like a
queen upon throne, she ruled
the giddy gang; and now, a
drug besotted crone, she goes
to this shebang. Once, where
the bright lights used to glow she
fooled with gilded vice, and all she
knew or cared to know was joy
at any price. And foolish damsels
envied her as on her way she sped,
and longed to flaunt their silk and
fur and paint the landscape red. And
where roof gardens were alight, |
rose, rebuking sin, and roofing
strongly for the right, and roasting
Evelyn. For no rebuke of mine she
cared, though couched in words sub
lime, and all the decalogue she
dared to have red-hot time. She
had her red-hot time for years, she
said to care, "Aroint!' and now in
misery and tears, she seeks the hop
head joint. Once she was beauti-
full and fair, and had a wondrous
charm, and for her smile benign
and rare man would trade farm.
But pleasure was the only thing for
which by day she schemed. and
pleasure was the sceptred king Of
whom by night she dreamed. And
pleasure brought her to the door
of yonder drab retreat, where hop
heads sit upon the floor and breathe
the name of Pete.

RIDE ON REAL HORSE
TREAT TO ORPHANS

Additional Christmas joy was
brought to the forty-two little girls
of the Washington City Orphan Asy-
| lum, 14th and r streets northwest.
today when six gentle horses walk ed
into the playground of the institution
and invited the small guests to hop
aboard for rides.
Timidity overcame many of the
children, who had never ridden or
even been asked to ride on a live
horse, but after a few who remem-
bered the visit of the horses last year
| had broken the ice by jumping at the
opportunity more than an hour was
spent i'll riding around the large en-
closure.
In a number of cases, the horses
were turned loose from their groorls
and realizing the precious burdens on
their backs, carried the little girls
with much care. Several girls be-
came extraordinarily enthusiastic
over the fact they were on a walk
| ing horse and loudly expressed wishes
didn't relish the idea of being perch
ed way up on the horses back and
screamed disapproval when she was
| lifted to this position. She was soon
shown that joy rather than fear
! would be the only result and by the
| time she hade made the round, was
| converted to horseback riding along
with the rest.
The horses were sent to the or
phanage by the Potomac Riding Acad-
emy for the purpose of entertaining
the children and instilling love for
the fast diminishing animal
