A store, table, bed, two or three
ohftirs—a borne in which a weak woman
was battling with sickness and poverty,
only asking for the bare necessities of
hie, and yet finding the battle going
against her more and more as the days
passed on^. On this night there was not
a monthfol in that house to eat A
hungry mouse could not have picked up
crust or crumb. The last bit of bread
had teen given to the child at dusk,
and now as it wailed out the mother
clasped her hands and gasped :
"If he awakes and cries for bread

Weill What then? It was only'
M
square to the river with ita cold, dark
current She could say to the angels
in Hesven: "It wss either t£i
starvation,” and they wonTd not
her too harshly.
As she eat there with beating heart
and anzions fears, the dim light making
queer shadows dance about the room, a
low, fierce growl made her heart stand
still. The door had not swung open,
and yet a gannt wolf had fonnd ita way
into the room. It stood there with
blood-shot eyes looking into ’best —itm
red tongue lolling from ita month sad
flecks of foam falling to the floor. Its
shaggy fur was stained and discolored—
its yellow fangs dashing and grinding—
a spectacle to have made a hunter’s heart
beat like a caged bird.
It was the Wolf of Starvation—tbe
fierce brute which never tires—which is
ever on the hunt for the helpless and
weak—which growls with delight sa tbe
wails of despair and hanger reach ita
eafs. It has scented ita prey from afar,
and ita fangs were sharpened to rend
and tear and devour.
For a moment the mother's heart
stood still and she gasped for breath.
Then, as she realized the horror of the
situation, she rose up and cried out:
"You have oomo to drink the blood of
my child t I’ll fight yon to the death 1”
Bhe had no weapon bat the thin
hands whieh had toiled and ached for
long years—no hopes but those born of
a mother’s love and affection for her off
spring, but she sprung at the gaunt,
strong beast and the battle begun. De
spair gave her strength—love steeled
her heart The beast retreated with
fierce growls as she sprang forward *o
dutch him, and as she stood in the cen
tre of the room she became a magnet
round whioh he circled.
Now he ftlowly circles to the right, his
red eyes watching her bony fingers, as
they nervously worked, and every hair
on bis bock standing np in anger. She
turns slowly, always looking straight
into his eyes—ready to clutch at his
throat when he springs. Now he halts
and glares at her, growling, sniffing—
flinging the flecks of foam to the right
and laft and grinding those horrible
langa. Now he drcles to the left—
cringing, skulking, crawling like a ser
pent-watching to find her off her guard.
\ The child u aroused by the patter of
the beaat’s feet and the labored breath
ing of the mother, and he aita up a silent
witness of the aoenc. His face is whiter
than snow—his eyes are big with terror
—his heart chokes him.
Now the beast springa. With a cry
of rage and triumph he springs full st
his prey, and the woman's hands dutch
his throat Thov weave to and fro. Thev
■tagger 4his way and that His ydlow
fangs graze her flesh and draw blood,
and the foam- flecks are stained crimson.
The child looks on with a fascination
born of horror. Ha bean the dash of
teeth as the jaws meet—he notes the
fury of the vengeful eyee—his young
heart seems to be stabbed at the sight
of the mother's grim despair.
Such a battle I ttuen a prize if the
gaunt, hungry beast suooeeds—snob a
victory if the strength of a fainting, de
spairing woman holds ont to save tbe life
of her child. With s cry to Heaven for
aid she calls up all her strength for onv
great effort and hurls the beast across
the room. He is back again in a mo
ment, and now he circles to the right-
now to the left—now !”
A step on the stain ! The beast halts
in his circling, his enra work nervously,
and as the steps come nearer his growl
changes to a whine and he dinka into
the darkness—away into space. The
door is thrown open and Charity steps
within, food in her basket an^kind
words upon her lips.
The battle is ended.—M. Quad.
Att—H M dM Bsllmi Prto«s to
Private advices from Turkestan stats
that tha Grand Duka Nicholas, fading
unhappy in his place of confinement, at
tempted to flee to India on horseback
but was overtaken and ^brought back.
The Grand Duke Nicholas was tha bad
boy of the Russian imperid family. Ha
has been severs! times in disgrace be
fore, and it wss on account of one of his
escapades and his supposed.leaning to
ward nihilist doctrines thst he
wss exiled. He was a nephew of
the late Czar, and was born in 1881.
One night in the winter of 1871 there
was s brilliant masked ball st the opera
boose of Bt. Feteraburg. Among the
company present was an American girl
of extraordinary beanty, scarcely out of
hex teens, yet a widow. Among the
company, also masked, wss tbe Grand
Duke. The couple became acquainted.
The Prince was fascinated, and the re-
spit was. that they were never parted
afterward for two years and s half. The
Grand Duke was, after this sdv«ntor%
banished to the Caucasus.
In the lonely life of tbe steppes tha
exiled Prince looked about him for some
one .to love. Fair ladies iffere naktndly
scarce, but the Grand Duka ultimately
settled his affection upon the exceed-,
ihgly beautiful daughter of the Police
Master Micliaeloff, and married her.
When the marriage was solemnised thrf
Prince sent an humble and penftfent
letter to the late Csar, entreating his
sanction for the unequal match. It was
refused with anger, and the Czar, as
s^pufftffttlent^fb^' the offenoey -ordered
the young Nicholas to join the expedi
tion to the Amopr district fox'the ex
ploration of Central Asia.
Meantime the beautiful daughter of
the Police Master determined to take
tho business in her own hands, travelled
to St. Petersburg, managed to get sn
interview with the Czar and entreated
him to give his sanction to the marriage
of his nephew* The imperial kinsman
oonld not openly yield, bnt.'before the
young lady departed for her hojne he
ireated her Countess of Orenburg. This
was taken as a proof thst her appeal had
made a favorable impression, upon him,
and when he died the Grand Dnka was
tempted to ask Alexander IIL to let him
return to the capital The request .was
refused with scorn. ‘
After this, the Grand Dnke was al
lowed to return to 81 Petersburg society
and imperial favor. He took a promi
nent part in the Ruaso-Turkish war and
received several distinguished marks of
honor from the Czar. Boon after the
latter was assassinated he again fell into
disgrace, and on April 5, 1881, was ar
rested in the village of Bublinv, on the
nilway to Moscow, and interned in a
castle near St. Petersburg. He was
suspected of political intrigues in favor
of his father, and of furthering Nihilistic
plots to this end.
He was subsequently sentenced to im
prisonment for life and wss confined for
some time in the fortress of Dunaberg.
Six months later his sentence was com
muted to banishment to Tnrkiatan,
where ho has been for the last two years.
Ho was given some employment in di
reeling the building of a canal in Turkis-
tan. Last July be was placed under
arrest for a short time for . interfering
with the duties of the Governor of the
province.

Samp Which Bings in thk Wind.—
About twenty miles south of Stillwater,
Cal, on Band Springs Flat, at the foot
of the mountain, there is a heap of sand
about one hundred feet high and nearly
a mile acrosq, whieh sings in the wind
and is constantly changing. It is thrown
by the wind, which there has a circular
motion, into a vast round wall with a
hollow in the centre half s mile across,
which goes two-thirds of the way to the
bottom. It ii steep and hard to climb
to the trip, sad on the inside is even
more steep, so steep that no one has
ever dared to go down, for fear that the
loose sand would slide down and bury
them up. There are similar dunes on
the Sandwich Islands, on the Hebrides,
and on the Atlantic Coast.

Here are two receipts for waffles; one
tor those whioh can be mads and baked
at onoe, and the other for those which
are rained with yeast, and consequently
require several hours in their prepara
tion. Number 1: 1 quart of sifted flour,
s pint of sweet milk, if it is possible to
have this part cream it will be .a great
;improvement, if not add a tablespoonful
of melted butter. Best two eggs very
ight, salt to your taste; s teaspoonful
of baking powder should be mixed with
the flour. The batter when done should
be a little stifffer than tor griddle cokes.
These should be baked st once. Num
ber 2 : one quart of flour, one pint of
sweet milk, two eggs, tittle melted but
ter, half s teacupful of yeast, or if the
compressed yeast is used, s fourth of a
cake will be sufficient When light bake
immediately. If the yeast U fresh these
will be ready to bake in two hours after
they are mixed.
A way to utilize cold buckwheat cakes
has been discovered by an ingenious
woman. Drop a lump of butter in a
frying pan, pnt the cakes in, let them
brown on both sides, pour a little milk
over them, and send them hot to the
table, and they make an entree that' is
astonishingly good.
- A quickly made dessert is this : Make
a batter as for common griddle cakes,
then add an egg, and some fruit, either
stewed or canned berries, drain the
juice from them, and stir them into the
batter; fry iu s little lard and serve
with pudding sauce.
A new way to make filling for layer
cakes is to chop half a pound of
blanched almonds, half s cup of raisins,
and a small piece of citron very fine,
sprinkle powdered sugar over them, let
them stand well mixed for an honr,
then put between the layers of any rich
cake. .

An ExpKRiHnrr.—Iu a letter to the.
London Times a eentleman states that
experiments made with a view to inves
tigating the scattering of shot have con
vinced him that with an ordinary gun
and ammnnition there is much more
scattering than people imagine; and to
this fact he attributes many shooting
casualties. For t^us reason he publishes
the result of his experiments, with the
hope that persons who use firearms will
be more careful in the matter,

did not exist even as a village. The
present site of the city was an old wom-
ont plantation with a surrounding
mountain wilderness. Not s dollar of
capital was invested in the development
of its vast storehouse of hidden treas
ures. Now ail is changed. Over $20,-
100,000 capital is invested in the coal
and iron district of which Birmingham
is tbe centre. Ita population—abont
16,000— is increasing, and the city is
growing rapidly.
Stay There.—An eccentric farmer
living in Ohio had a flock of sheep that
bad not been shorn for six yean. The
wool has grown over their eyes and
is so long that it drags on the ground.
On being asked why he did not shear
his sheep, Mr. Sellers replied, “God
pat the wool on their backs to stay there
and keep them warm, and I do not pro
pose to interfere.” The flock is a great
curiosity, and people come from miles
around to see them. Mr. Sellers never
shaves, oats his hair or finger nails.
In Bacrahcnto, Gal., a bather nad a

old gentleman came into court be saw
that there would be difficulty in securing
s conviction, and asked the Court that
the proceedings be dismissed, and paid
the costa. Tbe old gentleman and the
defendant left the court-room together.
As soon as they reached the ridowslk
the old man collared the youth and gave
him s terrible thrashing. Wh« he
thought the boy had enough he gave
him a parting kick, stepped back into the
court-room and said: “Judge you wit
nessed the business; how much is it
worth ?” The Judge replied thst he
thought $10 would be the right figure.
The old gentleman paid the coin and
walked briskly off to his work.
POOLH, WHO WAS HANGED IN Dublin,
is probably the last man who will have
to pay the penalty for oomplioity in the
Phoenix Park murders. His connection
with the tragedy was something like
ODonnell’s; he helped to kill Kenney,
who wss suspected of having given in
formation to the Police about the assas
sination of Cavendish and Burke. We
have yet to learn the fate of the other
Informers who betrayed their associates
in the Phoenix Park affair. The British
colonies refused them a landing, and at
last accounts the English Government
had net found an asylum for them. Then
came the excitement, about the killing of
Carey, and under cover of that, they
have managed to disappear. The hang
ing of O’DonRell and Poole adds to their
chances of'a long life, wherever they
maybe.
The question of bubnixo coal in wet
jr dry state is still being discussed in
the English journals, s large amoant of
>oth theory and practical information
being set forth. One writer says that,
although it is generally conceded to be
true that wet bituminous ooal will hot
produce as large a quantity of steam in a
boiler as dry ooal, there are few figures
to substantiate this. The raaulta of a
series of tests, msd#normtly with much
are, are regarded aa having consider
able weight in the determination of the
points involved. It appeared that a
mass of washed slack holding eighteen
per o«Di of water and nine and nine-
tenths per oenk of ask, evaporated five
and seven-tenths pounds of water per
pound of fuel, while the nine ooal, with
only three per cent of water, mads from
eight to eighth and five-ten tha pounds
of steam; making due allowance for
moisture by reducing to a standard .of
like quantities of coal free from mois
ture, a direct lorn of fourteen per bent,

WRECKED BY OPIUM.
"I wish that I knew of some way of
fateakteg myself of taking CfMm. I
would be willing to go to jail—to do
anything, to short, eo that I could be
plnoed to oouflasment until I had n
chance to oura myself of thk terrible
habit. I never shell be able to do so if
I am left to myself." These words were
addressed to a correspondent by a man
giving his name aa George Johnson,
who acknowledged that ha waa a con
firmed opium eater. His appearance
was a startling one. Hk face had the
aspeot of a haggard corpse, hk eyes
were hollow and sunken, but glittered
with a half-maniacal fire, while a ragged
growth of short black beard and long
tangled hair added to hk wretched ap
pearance. Hk clothing waa old and
dilapidated; a ragged coat waa buttoned
np to hk chin to. hide a coarse, dirty
shirt, and a straw hat, with a pair of
brogan shoes, completed s costume that
would answer equally well for a tramp
or a footpad. Yet there was an air of
refinement that clting to him with all
hk rags, and hk hands, though soiled
and hardened, were slender and delicate.
“I am a perfect slave to opium,” he
continued, “and I would hesitate at
nothing to procure the drug when the
desire for it k pn me. I will lie or
steal I heard a friend say onoe”—here
he paused and looked signifloantly at'
the reporter—“that he would kill a man
if necessary to get morphine, and I
wouldn’t blame him. I have fallanfrom
a respectable station down to what you
see me, and there is no telling how
much lower I will get unless I have
help. The amount of morphine I can
take has not, I suppose, ever been
equalled. One time I^ook ninety grains,
and it did not injure me. I think by
gradually increasing the dose I oonld
take twice as much without danger.
When I can’t get enough morphine to
do me any good I take crude opium or
chloroform. I know you will hardly
believe me when I say that in one night
I used a pound of chemioaled pure
chloroform by inhalation, yet it k a
foci I have gone for three or four days
at s time without eating, in order to buy
morphine or opium with the little money
1 had. I am only twenty-seven, but I
began using it when 1 was but twenty-
two. At thst time I was s deacon in a
Christian church; I never drank, swore
or gambled. I wae then the owner of s
retail drag store in Hickman, where I
remained all through the yellow fever
epidemic. Out of s population of 1,200
200 died, among them eight doctors,
bnt I came out of it healthier than ever.
When the habit took firm hold on me I
commenced going down hill I lost my
property — lost my health, my friends
and my self-respect. I believe the
knowledge of it hastened my father’s
death; it has beggared me, estranged
the girl to whom I wy to be married,
and it will prove my death. It hangs
over me like the blackest of nighti
it has taken possession of my
waking thought, and usurped every
dream of night. The horror of my situ
ation has benumbed every faculty but
that of dread, and every day I grow
more keenly alive to my awful condition.

mind, and be contented to live the re
mainder of my life in a maniac’s cell, if

Adjutant General Townsend, of the
0. S. Army, in his anecdotes of the civil
war gives us the following: “General
Townsend was st General Scott’s head
quarters when the dispatches came in
announcing the rout of the Union forces
in the first battle of Bull Run. In re
gard to the movement, by the way,
which ended so disastrously, the author
says that McDowell’s plans were ap
proved in detail by the President and
his cabinet, and by General Boott and
hk staff. Among others to whom they
were submitted, General Fremont was
especially asked by the President if he
perceived any objection, or could sug
gest any improvement; not a word of
criticism, however, was forthcoming
from any source, and the tmlocky pro
gramme was unanimously saaotkmsd in
all its features.
"Amid the panic and confusion that
followed the defeat, General Boott was
at all events, it seems, unwavering as s
rock. When reports were brought him
that the rebels wore advancing unop
posed on Washington, and would soon
be on the Long Bridge, the old soldier
would calmly lock on the informant and
reply: 'It is impossible, sir! We srs
npw tasting the first fruits of a war, and
learning what a panic is. We mnst be
prepared for all kinds of rumors. Why,
sir, we shall soon hear that Jefferson
Dark has crossed tbe Long Bridge st the

tramping our citizens under foot 1 He
hss no brigade of elephants; he cannot
by any possibility get a brigade of ele
phants.’ But though Boott kept hk
head, hardly anybody else did, and ‘for
a tune,’ according to the author, ‘there
k little doubt that had a squad of men
mounted on black horses (the Virginia
troop of 'Black Horse’ had been a bug
bear for some weeks) appeared on tha
Long Bridge or in the streets of the
city, there would have been a stampede
worthy of a flock of sheep,’"

After awhile the stimulants ojmmenced to
disagree with my stomach, my weariness in
creased, and I was compelled to resort to
other means to find relief. If a physician it
.suffering be invariably calls another ptysi
clan to prescribe for him, as be cannot see

cian and he advised me to try a little ebeml-
cal food, ora bottle of hypepboeohrtea I
took two or three bottles of ine chemT
cd food with no apparent benefit My
lawdtude and indisi’osition seenicd to
increase, ray food distreawd me. I suffered
from neuralgic pains in different parts of my
body, my mmoles became sore, my bowels
were constipated, and my prospects for recov
ery were not very flattering. I stated my
case toan ther physician, and be advi-ed roe
to take five to ten drops of Magende's solution
of morphine, two or three ti ne* a day. for the
weakness and distress in my stomach, and a
bins pill every other night to relieve the con
stipation. The morphine produced such a
deathly nausea that 1 coul 1 not take it, and
tbe bine pill failed to relieve my consti; ation.
In this condition I | assed nearly a year,
wholly unfit for businese, while tbe e.Tort to
think was irksome and painful. My blood
became impoverished, and I suffered from
incapacity with an appalling sense of misery
and general apprehension of coming evil I
passed sleepless pights and was troubled with
irregular action of the heart, a constantly
feveridi condit.on and tbe most excruciating
tortures in my stomach, living for days on
rice water and gruel, and, indeed, the digee-
tire ium tions seenie i to be entirely destroyed.
It was natural that while in this condition
i should become hypoehondrical and fearful
suggestions of self-destruction occasionally
presented themselves. I experienced on in-
latiai-le desire for sleep, but on retiring
would lie awake for a long time tormented
with trouble 1 reflections, and when at lost I
