Not soft and featherly as in the morning, but in those sharp, dry flakes that cut like shot. The wind was high too, piling the &now in long shifting drifts in the cross streets and alleys, blocking the way. How it whistled around the corners, tearing and tugging at tiles and paling. It seemed alive I with fiendish delight, howling and i shrieking in the wayfarer's ear. Few, 1 however, were exposed to its fury, the streets were almost deserted. An occasional belated straggler flounder­ ing along through the drifts was all. No matter how meager, there was too much cheer and warmth indoors to tempt many beyond their own thres­ hold this night. She crept in from the street and crouched under the steps of a stone front to escape the cold. The wind | was less biting here and the snow as j yet had not penetrated its deepest I corners. Here was a heap of leaves j and litter, swept together by the j Wind from the street. She drew her stockingless feet beneath her scanty | robes and sank baclc into the shadows, j She was safo here at least, till some j sharp eyed watchman espied her and made her "move on." The rich glow of gaslight from dimmed windows shimmered on the snow before her; happy childish voices ar:d merry music sounded within. As she listened awhile, a full sweet voice struck up those sad soul sick words; "Home, Sweet Home." Spellbound she listened. Home? Her old Home? She hadn't thought of it for months. What mockery it was to her. What was it to her any­ how, where was her home? Nowhere in the wide world was a place that »he could call "home." And she wrapped herself closer in her rags and tried to shut the home sick mel­ ody from her ears. She knew what want and suffering was, she knew what sin was; her face told that She knew wha*> it was to be spurned by all mankind, to have even the children shun her a«id point the finger of shame. She had seen ; brave those she had brushed by on the' street draw their robes closer about them and shudder as if contaminated by her contact. Lower and lower she had sunk, further and further away from Virtue and God, until now she had reached the lowest ebb. House­ less and friendless; a wanderer j>n such a night as this; in a land too where men's hearts are open w.dest and the svinpathy of their fellow- beings deepest. Pitiful ,indeed are those who can call no man "friend." After a while a* Nhe crouched there a dreamy stupor crept over her. A strange, delicious Warmth tingled through her veins, a swift burst of heavenly music sounded near. It is no longer winter, Jbut balmy spring. In place of the howling of the storm was singing birds and murmuring water. The narrow walls of her refuge stretched away, she was in wide green fields and shaded lanes. Why, what is this? How familiar everything looks! Can it be that she is back again to the old place? Surely, for here are all the same old landmarks. Ye9, there was that old maple--the one over the spring by the roadside, its trunk all gashed and name carved. Hers among the rest and just beneath it carved in the same boyish hand was another--but it doesn't matter; she has no right to think of that now. Where is he now, she wonders and does he ever remember her? Does he ever think of his boyish love, oL the golden, happy days agone? es he ever pause in the rounds of TUBest VattrpoT !n the WORLD!

TOWER, Boston, Maes. A PLUCKY 0PERAT0B. The following sounds well whether it is truth or romance: Miss Ransom was the telegraph operator and sta­ tion agent on a little road called the Columbia and Port Deposit division of the Pennsylvania line. This road hugged the banks of the Susquehanna River from end to end, and there wasn't a spot on the entire division on forty miles that wasn't almost sure death to leave the rails. Wrecks occurred on an average of once a week and were always followed by severe fatalities. The station she was located at was near immense limestone quarries wherein some half a hundred Italians were emploved. About 100 feet above the station was a 100-foot trestle spanning a small stream at ordinary tithes, but on the day referred to by the Washington Star it was greatly swollen and very swift as it emptied into the river at that point. A blast had just been fired of unusual force and an im­ mense rock landed directly on the trestle, tearing it apart in the center, the swift water washing away the debris and leaving a gap in the rails of about twenty-live feet. The river was very high at that point* and the small boats that were handy could not be propelled against the swift current. The nearest bridge on the little stream over which the trestle was stretched was some three miles distant. Miss Ransom saw the mis­ chief done by the rock and immedi­ ately rushed out and told the Super- intendent of the Italian gang to send a man or go himself around the wreck and stop a train that was due from the North in about half an hour. The Superintendent was an Italian, with a smattering of English, but who failed entirely to see the gravity of the situation. The only wire that ran along the road had been broken with the trestle, so that no communi­ cation with the North could be had. Miss Ransom tried to tell the Italian the true situation, but he only smiled, and with a shrug of his shoulders and a grimace walked back into the quarry and resumed his overseeing. Miss Ranson hesitated but a min­ ute toaikifany one in the crowd could swim, and receiving a negative an­ swer, decided, with the aid of a plank, to try crossing the river. The Ital ians iu their impetuous way tried to persuade her not to attempt the swollen waters, but with the decision of a true heroine who realized the danger the oncoming train \va6 in,she cautiously pushed the plank into the water and with a quick movement followed it The brave girl had en­ tered the water soma distance above the broken trestle in the hope of gaining the opposite shore some dis­ tance before that point should be reached, as to be carried out into the river meant almost certain death. The Italians encouraged her with shouts of praise, but endeavor as she would to work her way out of the current in mid-stream but little head­ way was made. Down the stream girl was carried with a swiftness that told plainer than words that her struggles were fruit­ less. As she neared the broken tres­ tle inch by inch she worked the plank over toward the northern side, and as she was within a few feet of the structure she abandoned the plank and struck out with one forlorn hope of reaching it unaided. Her fore­ sight and strength proved stanch qualifications. As she was .being carried by the projecting splintered trestle Miss Ransom gave one last long sweep of her arms and was en­ abled to grasp a heavy piece of tim­ ber. Slowly and laboriously the heroine worked her way out of the water and up through the trestle, as her strength commenced to show signs of waning, and finally reached the top. For only a few seconds did she hesitate to gasp her breath and regain strength when the noise of the coming train could be heard and a few seconds later dashed into view. The wild gesticulations of the brave girl caught the attention of the engineer almost instantly, the brakes were applied and the train brought to a standstill right on the curve in sight of the broken trestle. Without a quiver in her voice Miss Ransom told the en­ gineer of the mishap and in a mat­ ter-of-fact way, without any embel­ lishments, related her experience in trying to prevent the train ffom go­ ing through the broken trestle into the river. The dozen or so passen­ gers on the train were dumbfounded by the girls matter-of-fact bravery, and crowded around her and almost bis uneventful life to wonder where the erring one is?

And the little vine-covered stoop with father's easy chair, and the wide door-stone, white with the scattered bloom of the cherry trees, and there in the door a swoet-faced woman with that winsome, cheery smile as if ready to greet the flock of children that came trooping up the lane from the little school house at the foot of the hilL "Mother! Mother!" she cried, stretching out her hands--but they struck only the bare stone walls, and her dream was over. Then she lay there and thought--the first time perhaps for months Time after time she had drowned her senses in rum to stop thinking.

Such an instance is the oase of Ariosto, who might be supposed to know something at least of the truth of history, but whqse once fa­ mous poem, "Orlando Furioso," is a tis­ sue of historical absurdities from be­ ginning to end. Charlemagne and his peers are joined by Edward I., of En- ?land; Richard, Earl of Warwick; larence, and the Dukes of York and Gloucester. Cannons are employed hundreds of years before the timo of Monk Schwartz. In one place Prester John, who lived 400 years after Charle­ magne. and Constantino the Great, who died five centuries before him, are introduced and hold familiar con­ verse with the great Charles, while in another Salad in and Edward the Con­ fessor are joined by the Black Prince. But there is no need to go back to for­ gotten poems, or imaginative works known by name only, to find illustra­ tions of the momemtary forgetfulness, ignorance or caielessness of authors. Byron speaks of the thousands of Xerxes' ships, whereas the Persian king had only 1,200 at first, and 400 were destroyed by a storm before the memorable naval review mentioned bY tne poer, off the Island of Iolanus, so that only 800 actually participated. But Byron was far from faultless in matters of history and geography, or he would not have made Teos one of the islands of Greece, whereas it is a seaport in Asia Minor. Mcore falls into a grave error in the lines describ­ ing the sunflower turning to the sun. whereas the sunflower dee3 nothing of the kind, as may be seen by anyone Who cares to make the necessary ob­ servations. Nor is Tennyson free from the faults common to most authors. In most of his romances he followed the version given by Mallory in his "His­ tory of Prince Arthur," but made in­ numerable variations, most of which were in all probability mere slips of memory.--Globe-Democrat. When a Woman Faints. If there is anything amusing about a fainting spell it is the conduct of the men called upon tp witness it or lend their assistance in reviving the luckless woman who succumbs. A few Sundays ago, at the Cathedral at Louisville, a pretty girl fainted up in tho organ loft. As soon as it was seen that she was prostrated by the closeness of the air, the terrified men in the choir huddled together and stared helplessly at the chief actor in the drama The women, however, were equal to the occasion. They supported the tottering girl to a bench, placed her on it, and began or­ dering the men around like generals on a field of battle. In five minutes one young fellow had been dispatched for a glass of water, another for ice, smelling salts, and whisky, while the remaining gallants sat by and gave their sympathy. Hardly liad this lit­ tle sceno ended before a young girl seated near the sanctaary was seen to gasp and turn pale and look oxtremely unhappy. The crowd was so great that it was impossible to take her down the aisle, so an usher was pressed into service and carried her down the sanct­ uary to the sacristy beyond. The young lady was conscious enough to walk, and the usher hurried her away as if nervously apprehensive that she ; would faint outright, and he would be ! obliged to put his arm around her. I "You don't know how awful It is to try and carry an insensible woman," groan­ ed one of the ushers. "They are twice as heavy as usual, and . feel like a sack of meal. You can always tell, though, when they are beginning t ) grt all right, for the first thing they want to knjw is if their hats are on straight." nil May Interest Ton* Stuftenis, Teachers (male or female), Clergymen and others in need of change of employment, should not fall to v rite to R.

A f>la®orery Which Made the Proprietor's Hair Curl. Herman Stone, the pawnbroker and jeweler, who has a plaoe on Jackson street, near the corner of Fourth street, was looking over a quantity of unre­ deemed pledges the other day, when he fouud something which made his hair fairly stand on end. About a year ago a young man called at the store of Mr. Stone, and said he desired to borrow some money from the office on some personal property. The property con­ sisted of a valise, an overcoat, a suit of clothing and a gold watch. The amount loaned on the goods was $45, and the man who secured the loan said that he would call in the course of a few days and redeem the property. The goods were placed in the vault and had re­ mained there undisturbed ever sinoe. When the musty old sachel was taken out of the vault yesterday it was found to be in the same condition as it was at the timo it was placed in the room for safe keeping. The clothing had been made into a separate package. The valise was broken open, and inside wa» found a red leather Delt consider­ ably the worse for wear. The belt was taken out, and in handling it was no- tioed that it was very heavy and had little pockets along the side. Mr. Stone took the fcelt out into the front room of the store and opened the pockets. Out rolled-gold pieces--double eagles--to the number of thirty-four. They were as bright and shiny as tho day they were taken from the mint, and they looked as though they had just been taken from the bank. The coins were all pf the same date, 1WK). The money legally belongs to the finder unless some person from whom it was taken, as it was apparently stolen, proves his property.--St. Paul Globe. The Rarest Plants. The question which are the rarest plants on earth admits of two answers --as to rarity in distribution and as to rarity in the numerical sense. There are some plants which grow in one small spot and nowhere else. Such are the Kerguelan cabbage, which is found only on Kerguehtn island, a remote island in 45 degrees south latitude and 65 degrees east lon­ gitude in the South Pacific, the species of harebjli which grows only on Mt. Parnassus, and a yam which is found only on the Pyrenees. The palm of numerical rarity is di­ vided among two hybrid orchids--art­ ificially produced crosses--laelia bella and laelia sadina, of each of which only one specimen exists, a unique flower* called odontoglossum vecillarium, ex­ hibited at the last exhibition of the Horticultural society in Temple Gar­ dens, and a tiny Japanese plant, over­ weighted with the pretentious name schizocodon soldanelloides, which was brought from Japan about two years ago bv Capt. Torrens. So far as is known it is the only one in existence. The Art of Praying. If prayer is worth using at all, and great numbers of intelligent people are convinced that it is, it is worth using with tho utmost intelligence and the highest attainable skill, writes Edward S. Martin, in the North American Review. The kind of prayer in which the petitioner asks for every­ thing he can think of, in the hope that some of his supplications may reach the mark, is as much out of date as those doses affected by doctors of the last generation, in which a lot of drugs were mixed, not for their combined ef­ fect, but in the hope that the right one might be among them, and might find its way to the right spot in the pa­ tient. Perhaps clumsy doctors do that way still. Not so the masters of medi­ cine. Their diagnoses make plain to them what they want to do; tnen, if they use a drug at all, it is sent to ac­ complish that particular purpose. So, in this enlightened generation the prayers of the great prayer-masters should be rifle-shots sent by an under­ stood force at an ascertained mark. Whether they hit or miss should de­ pend upon comprehensible conditions. If a savage fires at the moon with a rifle he may be surprised at not hit­ ting it; but a man who understands rifles is not surprised. He knows what may be expected of them. So it would seem it should be possible to under­ stand prayer. Mrs. Cleveland's Howekeephtg. The mistress of the White House has little trouble in housekeeping, for all the servants are under control of the steward. On him devolves the duty of {ireparing a.bill of fare and of market-ng; then he sees that the other domes­ tics are fulfilling their duties properly. Over the kitchen, two housemaids, butler and assistant laundry-woman and stable servants, he has tne entire supervision, and if he wishes to dis­ charge help he gives his reason and c miplaiut to the mistress of the house, who acts as she thinks best. All of the servants, except the cook and the coachman, are paid for out of the President's salary, and as there are about 1 en in all, the item is no small one. For running expenses--such as repairs--the government allows a cer­ tain sum each year. Dialect Literature. The dialect of the magazines la gen­ erally the worst possible misspelling, with very little approach to the pro­ nunciation which ft is supposed to in­ dicate. Apparently the hardest thin# for a writer to learn is that dialect if not bad spelling. Half the Irish dia­ lect is even worse. The trouble is that the writers have, as a rule, picked up their dialect from ether writers and know nothing of the genuine article. If they weuld go to nature there would be a marked improvement in this respect. --Globe-Democrat.

A new kind of paint is announced, which, it is claimed, possesses in a peculiar degree the properties of pre­ serving metal from rust, and is unaf­ fected by either heat or cold. When applied to sheet it on it is found that the coating is not affected by warm water or steam, nor is it at all in­ fluenced by the action of acid and alkaline liquids, ammonia gas, hy­ drochloric acid gas and sulphuretted hydrogen gas. The principal ingred­ ient in this paint is a silicate of iron which is found in the neighborhood of natural deposits of granite which have become decomposed by contact with the air. • j LITTLE BROTHER--Grown folks I don't know as much as they think : thev do.
