Nowlet me take your ticket and cheek, then we'll have this oar." Dorothy turned to gob ber littbo astalud where it Wino tucked In the corner of the met, safely, as they thought, but, to her dismay, le was gone. They looked under the Beata and raised the cushiona, all to no purpose; 10 woe gone, and with it her ticket, the chalk for her trunk, her money and all her precious things. The conduotor sew it all instantly. 'While he had left her sound asleep to attend to some duties, a thief had come and robbed her. Poor little Dorothy! Instead of the caress of het dear auntie, as ahe had dreamed, it was the rough touch of some wicked person that bad awakened her. The conductor took her tremblin little bend in his and told her, as plainly and simply as he could, what had happened, and ea the ready tears begat. to fall and the sobs came thick and fast, he put his Wrong arra Abut her and said: "Now, my dear little girl, yon meet be very brave, and we'll see what can be done. Let me think," he said, looking away for a moment. "Ah, I have it I" be exclaimed, and, taking her hand, he led her from the car. They went up a long flight of marble start into a large waiting -room filled with tired,Itravel-worn people where the bright lights almost blinded the tear-filled eyes of Dorothy, as she clung to the hand of the only frieed she seemed to have. For the moment she had forgotten "the Friend that atioketh closer than a brother." But he had not forgotten her and, althongh she did not know it, he was very near her even then in her distress. "Is Mrs. D3.wson here V' asked the con- ductor of a porter. "Yea, SA," replied the man of color, "1 tink she be. I seen her a few moments ago. There she be, soh," pointing to an elderly lady who was moving about quietly among the waiting throng. "Good evening, Mrs. Demon," Bad the conductor, approaching .her and leading little Dorothy by the hand. I think I have some one here who needs your help." Inc few words he told her Darothy's story. It was just such a etory as moved Mrs. Daw- son's kind heart to its very depths. " Why, you poor darling," she exclaimed, stooping down and putting her motherly a -ms around the little girl, "what a shame! Bat never feta, well make it all right and see that you get home safely,too." As Dorethy looked at her sympathetic face she gained confidence and courage and began to wipe away her team. "That's right," mad Mrs..Dawson, "be a brave little girl, and it will all be made right." Then she bade her friend, the conductor, good-bye and "are Dawson led her away. Dorothy looked up 'shyly at this new friend, wondering who she was and how she hap- pened to be there and as she did so she saw 1% blue ribbon fastened to her dress, on which were the lateen, Y. W. C. A. a She did nob know what they meant, unless they were the initials of the lady's name, which she thought rather queer; but Chicago was a strange place, and she did not know but ib was a =atom among the ladies there. Mo. Damien saw the inquiry in her face and said. with a smile: "Do you want to know who I am? Well, I am called the "Strangers' Friend," and I ,am sent here by some kind ladies who want to help people who Come to this big city and haven't any friends, or in trouble, just like yon. It is too late for you to take the train tehight, so I am going to hike you to a nice home which these mime ladies keep for the people they help. In the morning you shall start on your way mean." A alert ride in the street -care brought them to the home and, after a warm nipper the poo; tired little girl was pet to bed by kind Mrs. Damen* herself, and aeon forgot her troublea in raison, in the merlin Mrs. Deevison told her that o lady whom she knew was going to New York that afternoon, and had prondeed to take care of her on the way awl to see her safely in her mother's, Arms; and another lady had bought her a now ticket, so ahe • Peal We no fear- It was eurprising how Itilheltawiane 00414 have done so much in so 0040 8, time, but ehe was a woman of re. makable energy and when, elle undertook to do a thing she wally eucceedea.

The Philadelphie "Record" says:—e. male physicians aro hemming a wonderiully numerous clam It is estimated that they number nearly 3,000 in the United State., or about 1 to every 33 doctors of the other SST. There aro in Philadelphia nearly 100 women physiolans'of which 01 are allopaths and 18 homeopaths, with about a dozen or more epecialiste. About onehmarter of these are married, etiveral of them to physi. clans with whom they have become co. work:ire. Some of them have princely in- comes. Few women adopt aphysician's career with the idea of gain primarily, yet mi their fees are by no eans nconsiderable Many of them become selasupporting as soon as they quit college walls, and tho number of throne who are not earning their own broad and butter at the end of their second post -graduation year are very small. There are several women doctors in Boston, • and several more in New York, the yearly income of each of whom averages from $20,. 000 to $25,000. The aigheat figure reached in this city is something less than 616,000; but many other women earn handsome re- muneration. Their fees per visit are me- aly below those of their brethren—"wo- men are not so grasping as the men" as one femaleyraotitioner phrased it—yet they are not insignificant. Certain leading women practitioners often charge $10 or even $15 per visit. An aver- age of the annual income from fees of seven- ty-six graduates of the Pennsylvania Wo- men's Medical College, taken eight years ago, was $2,907.30. 'As women's practice has largely increased since that time the average now would be considerably higher. Fifty-four reported their annual receipts to be between $1.000 and $4,000, and seven reoeived over $5,000, four of them reaching a figure above $15,000. Only ten of the aeventysix admitted that their earnings fell short of $1,000. Big Nose and Month. A clever woman was recently asked who should be made president of a certain associa- tion of whioh great things were expected. "1 cannot name her,'' she said, "but choose B01110 one with.a big nose and a big mouth." There may be no Klieg worth a row of pine in this, but none the less it is true that many of the ruling men and women of pow- er have had large features. This is espec- ially so in the literary world. At a literary gathering anywhere big noses or big mouths, or both, will be noticeable. The mime traits are observable at a spiritual seance. At the °pencil of women in Washington the nests of the women were in the aggregate moue - mental. It is the same at a meeting of So- rosis. Mies Frances Willard has a big nose and a good-sized mouth. Mrs. jells 'Ward Howe has a big month but very fine and sympathetic. George Eliet's noee lacked nothing in size. It really looks as if the big.nosed, wide-mouthed people had the beet of it in life, at least, from the putilic point of view. The fashion of matching the ,bonnet or hat with the costume, while it still prevails, is not considered absolutely essential ; but the bead -gear should be inkeeping with the costume.

An old hunter who had scoured the Big Horn, and southern spurs of those monstrous piles from child. hood once disoovered far in the depths and beyond an almost impassible rooky barrier a beautiful basin, wherein was one poor old stallion and twelve fine, beautiful mares. This old fallow, not able to hold hie own against the younger and stronger males on the plains, had Bought ont this retreat and enticed a family of twelve to go with him. He was in clover, so to speak, keeping his family intact without feat of molestation, as the entranoe to this horse Eden wan evident. ly known to none of his rivalo. He never left the stronghold and never allowed any of his mates to wander away. Had , he chosen 3 home on the plans his family would no doubt have been stolen from him one by one King Milan's Dread. Oae of the reasons which induced King Milan to yield to the pressure brought to bear upon him, ape to relinquish his throne, was a dread of assassination. The pre- cautions which he took seem almost in. credible. There were double doors, plated with iron, to the room in which he slept, and a powerful mastiff kept watch at the foot of his bed, while a loaded revolver lay ready at his side. His breakfast in private consisted principally of caufs a lo en, and toasted bread, wnile his coffee was made in his presseence with a spirit lamp. Brown bread biscuits of English 'manufacture and tinned meats ( opened by his own hand), formed his lunch, and when dining it was always obeervecl that he keenly noted who was partaking of the seine di& as that to which he helped himself, and denied with hie food until he saw it was eaten freely by others. In 'public, and when wearing his State uniform, the king looked much 'stouter than when in plebeian costume, and this was caused by a light snit of proteotive men, whioh he invariable donned before leaving the palaoe. He was extremely par- ticular about his attendants, and nervously anxious to secure their good -will by lavish preeents. The maid of Mme. Christios was the recipient of some naunifioent gifts, and the confidential valet who watched over the amorous pair during their private intervienve reaped a rich harvest as the reward of his disdetion.

GAINESVILLE, Tex., April 29.—A strange discovery has been male here by a French mannamed Somme, in the northwestern district of this county. Having occasion to sink a well, he seleoted a spot in a valley, near a ravine of great length, and which, during heavy rains is transformed into a raging torrent, depositing in the valley limestone, gravel, mud and other debris. After reaching a depth of four feet and while in a formation of limestone and gravel that had continued almost uninterruptedly from the surface down, Mr. Somma came upon the vertebral and ribs of an animal. The ribs were about the size of a small pig's and rapidly tapered. Carefully unearthing the bones toward the , tapering end, Mr. Somme Ewen came to rattles, which when counted numbered seventeen, the largest measuring six inches across. Attracted by the strange find, the neighbors gathered and the work of unearthing the monster was proeeouted with vigor. After laying bare nineteen feet of the remains of the monster, imagine their cowiternation at finding the ekeleton of a man in the stomaoh of the eke laton a the snake. The remains of the man and serpent so far as the serpent has been exhumed are as perfect as when first denud- ed of flute and were doubtless oovered by time and gravel soon after death. Neat the act of desperation, and there can be no bones; of the Mau's right hand is a rude doubt whatever that his suicide was that of stone hatchet, which a local geologist of a man out of his senses.

The two went oat shooting together accent. yarded by Coune Joseph, Hoye, ; 'but the Priam) soon lab the perty,atei when Prince Philip returned to the Sabine eh found the Crowe Prince in the company a Mile. Marls—the young lady for whom he had an attachment. Zhe girl had run away eaCat HER 310THEIt'S ROUSE ha Vicena, and was reeking it tearful appeal to the Crown Prince not to deierb her. Paine Philip ()Moberg tried hard to per. suede him to return to Vienna and attend a court) dinner, but he refused ; so Prince Philip went pack to Vienna atone, leaving Merle — still at the Sables'. The girl then made Another appeal to the Prince not to forsake her, end he was obliged to tell her of the peremptory ordere whioh ha had received from his father. Upon this Marie—turned away, and, un. seen by tho Prince, swallowed the contents of it paper full of etrycluolao powder. The violent poison took &pose immediate effect, math° unfortunate girl rolled on the floor nearing piercing screams. Tho Prince's valet came to the rescue and was frantical. ly told to run and fetch a doctor; but before he could leave the house on this errand he was called back and rcquirea to give assie taw/win Mario—on a bed. She died in convuleions &bone half an hour after- ward. The Crowe, Prince, in his terror and consternation, probably made up hie mind at that time thee he would commit sucide; bub after the first OUTBURST OE HIS GRIER was over he grew calm, ana ordered hie valet to say nothing of wbat had occurred. Marie—was covered with a white sheet, and the Prince, taking some &were from a of a gun, but we were on the alert this time, vase, scattered them over the shroud. He and tbree bullets pierced him and laid him low. Then the old one and her youtig, came along. We shot Iwo them, wounding the big one, and she turned on no. Este.brook was caught and hie coat torn off. Turning to flee, inn TIGER CAUGHT RIR then went into another room to dine with Count Joseph Hoyos, and the valet natur- ally supposed that the two would concert means of informing Marie—'s friends of her death. So he remained silent) as he had been ordered. The Crown Prince ate littlest dinner, but drank feverishly, and several times left the room to go and look all Marie --hi body and to write lettere' After dinner a cabman who had driven the Prince to Meyerling and had put up his horses in the stalks of a neighhoring -villa, was Intl -educed into the dining room to sing comic songs before Count Hoyos. The Crown Prince entered the rooin occasionally, bat was too agitated to sit down and he complained of headaohe. Yet he was that the COMA and the cab- man should separate'and he kept these strange guests up till three in the morning. Count Hoyos then went to bad and the coachman left the house. The Prince's valet was also told to go to bed, but EMIG UNNEAST he went and lay down in his clothes. Drop. ping off to sleep, however, he only ammo at about half past seven in the morning, when Prince Philip of Coburg returned from Vienna. The valet went to inform his master of Prince Philip's arrival and found him sit- ting half dressed on the side of his bed. • The Crown Prinoe gave orders to prepare the guns for shooting, and the valet went to do this, but returning in about twenty minutes heard a shot, and rushing to the Prince's door found it looked. Prince Philip and Countlloyosweresummonned. The door WAS broken open, and the Crown Prince was then wen lying dead on the bed, beside the Hatless figure of Marie---. It had taken the Prince nearly twelve hours after Marla. --'s death to nerve himself to this by the left hand and put her teeth through it and crushed it. The kittens weighing about 100 pounds apiece, would not run, and advanced to ad in the fight. A rifle ball from one of us crippled one and laid the other low, and on we rushed, firing all the while, to the aid of Estebrook. Some say we missed the brute. We bad to fire with the greatest] care to keep from hitting the hunter, and ie sieemed to me it was fully five minutes before we planted a fatal hall in her. " Estabrook was so badly maimed by the teeth of the tiger that he has never recovered from it. His hand was so torn that two of his fingers hung by shreds of flesh, and his arm above the wrist) was also lacerated. This was the doziest call I ever had with any wild animals. Bear and deer and other kinds of game on the borders I have killed in large numbers, but there is nothing on the frontier now that is so vicious as this tiger. Estabrook is now at San Bernardino, laid up from his tiger fight." Mr. Gladetone's estimate of Dante, ex- pressed after a paper read by the Bishop of Riponat (the Dake of Westminster's house, contained this: "I wish to bear testimony with the Bishop, as far as language can to the degree of magnitude and the importaece of his works, which can hardly be possible to exaggerate upon. Dante has, 0 place ab- solutely alone in the whole compass of what is called literature, and I do not think thab ,there is any writer who can compete with Dante in what I oall educated power. In my opinion, tne study of Dante is a very serious matter, entailing a serious responsi- bility. Every thinking person who gives himself to that study cannot, during the Andy, but feel profoundly its effects, for many are the lessons whioh the poems of Dante convey to humanity."
