Gilbert, aad X will tell yoa a secret
which has never been breathed to
mortal teas before. Twenty years
ago I painted the likstjeea of my only
daughter, tla piotare that yoa' see
before yoa. Cm was then ten years
of age i aha la now thirty, and still
with ma."
"May not this) be bar child this
model of mine T"
"Listen. At tha age of nineteen
my daughter, did ae many a good
girl baa done before her she mar
ried, witboat my knowledge, one
wbo was to m an entire atrangor,
and nearly ao to her. That bnaband
proved to be a villain, ' fcr in twi
years after, he forsook " ber. More
than tbta he took with him a dan?h
tor by tha name of Graoie. J he
blow nearly killed the mother, and
even time baa not healed the wound.
I have made evory effort to trace out
tha man, and recover our darling,
but iu vain. I gaiued such informa
tion, however, that I was sa'.iufiod be
had died miserablo in a distant town
and we have given the little Graoie
up an lost forevor. Now yott can
account for my agitation when I
first saw yottr painting,' can you
nott" " . ; ;
"I can divine your thoughts."
"What is the name of your mod
al?" . "I only know ber - aa Kotioj the
street singer."
"Yon know where she can bo
found r 4
"Yea." ,
"Let ns go for her at once.'
In .two boars after tho little beg
gar entered tho splendid saloon of
tho Byrd mansion. 8 he was bewild
ered, for ehe had never gazed upon
so much oleganoe before, except aa
she - had seen it from the streets,
through the closely curtained win
dows. Hor confidence was soon re
stored, however, and then she woa
conductod to tbo studio. .
As her eyes fell npon the pictnres,
she stood motionless for a tirao, and
thon said : "Why, you have painted
two pictures of me, instoad of one,
Mr. Gilbert"
"Yes would you not like a copy T"
"Oh, so much I" sheauswered, hor
eyes bocotniog brilliant . iu anticipa
tion. "Yoti shall hnvo ono of them.
Which do you prefer T ' .
"I'hin, I foel as if I conld lovo it 1"
and theyounsr crcaturo knelt bo
foro tho mother, while tears lillod
hor eyes.
Tuid was too inncft for the grand
father. He sunk into a eo.it aud
ooverod his face with his flucrorfl.
"What is your name T uked
Gilbert.
"Katie Courtney. I thought you
knew that before."
"Courtney was bis name," groan
ed tbe old man.
"Do you remember your pareuta f "
again asked Gilbert
"Only my father. Ho was not
very kmti. to rue, and uioa in l'iy
mouth several years ago.",. ,, , -
"And yon have been singing for
your bread since !"
"I wajp.''
"Well, if yon have to have the
picture, I want yoa to. siug ma a
song now. You will do so, will yoa
not r"
"Ob, yes, willingly."
She began one of ber wild strains,
and the dwelling was filled with
melody,- '
This hod not long continued be
fore tbe door of the study was open
ed, and a lady entered tbe room.
she was pale, and staggered as u
suffering from great weaknoaj. She
clutched tbe back of a chair for sup
port and then asked in a faint-voiou:
"Who is the singer t" '
To hare answered in words would
havo boen nsuless, however, for hor
eyes had fallen upon the face of the
ohildt and, with a dull shriek, the
mother fell fainting upon the lloor.
.In an instant. Katie, or Uracio, as
was her real name, was by her sido.
As she gazed npon tbe marble face,
she' exclaimed: "Oh, tula , is tho
Other pioturel" - ,
"Not my motnor I ya, ieu me, is
it my mother f"
"It is." .

because of injury , to the railroad
waa oora pelted to remain there nntil
tbe track waa temporarily repaired.
Then tbe eircoa atnrted , tor tha
next place of exhibition.- When
about eight miles out one cornor of
a bridge gave way, and three ear
containing animal rau off the track
and turned over into the mnd very
gently. Tbe first car contained
horses, the aeoond an elk and carnal,
the other three tho five elephants
The small animals wore easily liber 1
ated, but tho elephants were all in a
heap. To remove them tho car was
cut away, exposing the tops of the
nnwiuldy animal's back.
Then was exhibitud the intellU
genco which mails thuso half huiuau
brutou. They oboyod evory com
trand of tho. keeper, cmwliug' on
their knees, turning ou thoir side,
squirming liko eels, nnd assuming
more wondorful and novel positions
than were described ou the show
bill When ruloasol from thoir
perilous position thoro was not a
ota ton npon them, and no school
boy ever gave more i einphatio ex
pression of relief from oonllueraent
than did those elephants. They
trumpted, swayed back and forth and
did everything but talk. The re
maining diutanoe to tho city was
made overland, and a happier crew
never started on a march than were
those animals. The cool, breezy
atiuosphore and the bright moou
light wero all inspiring. ' As the
bridges wore gone, at each stream the
elophants took fresh enjoyutout - of
their liberty. At no timo were thoy
obstinate or disobedient, but seem
ed full) to realize thoir situation.
Ou arriving at Des Moines railway

not easily done, as ordinary curs are
too low. fcomo wear finally found

The Curse of Strong Drink. .
An exchange truthfully remarks
that the appetita for strong drink in
man - baa spoiled , the lifo of more
women mined more hopes for thorn
brought to them more eorrow,
shame and hardship than all other
evil. The country numbers ten, nay
hundreds of thousands of woman
who are widows to-day nnd sit iu
hopeless weeds, becauso thoir hue
bands have been slain by strong
drink. . Thero are i hundred of
thousands of homes Mattered Over
the land in which women livo livas
of torture going through a)l the
ahaugos of aufforing that lie between
the extremes of fear and dispair, bo
oatise . those whom they love, love
strong drink better than the women
they h ive sworn to love.' '
1 here aro women by thousands
who dread to hear at tho door the
step that once filled tbem with pleas
ure, bocause that stop has learned to
reel under the influeuoo of seductive
poison. There are women groauiag
with pain while we write these
words, from bruUos nnd bratalites
inflicted by husbauJd nude mad by
drink.
There can be no exaggeration in
any statement in regard to this mat
ter, because no human imagination
oan create anything worse than
truth, and no pen is capable of por
traying tbe troth.

Mary Walkor, mot yesterday for tho
first time in several months. They
shook hands, embraced and shed
tears ovor the reflection i "What

At last tho first session of tho Forty-fourth
Congress has adjourned
and, like tho grass-hopper that invad
od tho west, after devastating tho
country, they have departed to their
habitat homes. This Comjrom will
bo leinombored ni undoubtedly the
weakest that over nssombled at the
National Capital. It will live in his
tory ns tho dospoiler instead of tho
promoter of tho country s intorests.
After a stormy and turbnleut session
of over eight months it ha adjourn
ed without iillonling the least relief
to the prostrated business of the
opuntry. While on tho other hand
it has loft our commercial affairs iu
a more embarrassed condition thnn
they wore in whan Congress assem
bled iu December last.
The Codfodorates and Democrats
having a majority in tha House,
great reforms were promised, alboit
little was os poo ted t nud in this they
have not disappointed tbe expecta
tions of tbe thinking pooplo of the
country. The boasted saving of
910,000.009 iu appropriations has
dwindled to ou amount less than was
saved under the proceeding Repub
lican O ogress, as in almost evory in
stance it will bo obligatory upon tbe
. . . i t r , , .
noxc session to pass uumnuiuiy uuis
to moke up the deficit In their zeal
to cat down tho espensos and ' mako
a show before tho "dear people,"
headed by Sam. Randall, they have
torn about like so many ma'd bulls
in a china shop, starting bare and
there indiscriminately, until, thoy
havo eripplod tho ,eluoienoy of tho
civil service, and so clog .rod tha ma
chinery that it is with ditliculty tho
ordinary busiuoss of the eon n try can
bo performed m soma of tho Depart
ments. In this embtrraHSod condi
tion they havo left tho Governmont,
and this is tha feast of reform to
which tho Republicans who voted in
Democratic Congressmen are invited
to sit down. Hero is food for reduc
tion . . . i ... , i .
In point of weakness this house
has beeu without a parallel. .. Know
ing the depressed state of the coun
try it brought forth no remedy aud
suggested no plan by which business
might be revived aud onttdeuoe re
established i but on the contrary re
pealed the clause in the resumption
act, which specified a time for the re
sumption or specie payment i tons
adding farther uncertainty to our
already uncertain monetary system.
This piece of folly woe done at tbe
command of both 1 ildea and Hen
dricks, and tbe bidding of the Ht
Louis Convention, i Verily, "the ox
knoweth his owner and the ass bia

iuirolasses. These . work could be
proseouted cheaper now tnan at any
timu alnca the war. and perhaps
cheaper thanth Government will

Those work include the repair of
