An old woman wearing a blaek bonnet,
a Warm sli:iwl and a pair of gold eye
glasses was a passenger on one of the
trains from Huflalo to New York recent
ly. She had come through from the
west, and the nervous way in which she
gathered her bundles around her and the
number of iieslions she asked all showed
that she was not accustomed to travel
ing. When the train boy came through
with his assortment of books she confided
to liiiu the fact that i-he was going to
New York to see her son, and that she
had Dot seen him for over a year. She
grew talkative aud said :
"My son Albert's a great preacher. lie

he couldn't get away this summer, but
he wanted to see me, and he sent for mo
to come on. Ho preaches in a big church
there, and he has got a line family grow

So she prattled on. The trainboy
listened to her attentively and succeeded
iu selling her a copy of "The Quick and

was a Methodist religious book. When
he left her she began to read it, calmly

LIFE'S MOVJMJ PANORAMA
ILLUSTRATED IN A NEH
YORK STEET SCENE.
A living picture of life's moving pau-
nratna was presented at llroadway ami
Twenty third street lust week. It was
a processiou formed by chance, but the
utmost deliberation could not have made
it tell a plainer ttury of life.
First came a wugou piled high with

tortuous ways of this world.
Then followed a pony cart carrying
two laughing boys advanced ouly f:,r
enough in the great high way of life to
realize that there was roses in tlu path
but not to know of the thorns.
Behind the boys iu u dogcart dawn
by a high stepping cob, were two youths
on tho threshold of manhood. One wore
on the lapel of his coat a college pin on
a bit of blue ribbon, tho other a pin ol
different design on a yellow knot ol silk.
They wcro engaged in earnest couvc lsa

colored theater poster representing
young womau who was advertised to ap
pear on some stage.
A clanging gong was close behind, and
a cable car crowded with impatient busi
ness men was hurrying its load to their
posts to make the daily utart io the wild
race for money.
Next a handsome pair of horsis, a
stylish carriage, coachman and footman
on the box, and in the carriage a rotund,
red-faced man, past middle ugc, and be
side him a richly arrayed woman trying
to appear to be on the sunny side ol
that middle line. Prosperity was writ
ten on every part of the equipage.
Then came an ash cart, and its dust,
borne on the wind, reached and annoyed
tho occupants of tho cariiage. The
driver walked at his horse's head, bowed,
but not with years, und his face bore the
marks of toil, that had extended over
his life since early youth.
Close behind the ash earl, with bluek
horses, black plumes and a solemn visugid
driver, came a hearse. New Y'ork Herald.

(M. tjii.ul iu lletioit Free Tress.)
1 stood leaning up against tin awning
post in Hester street, watching the pov
erty (if a summer's evening the poverty,
despair and desperation of the east side
as it surged back and forth of hundreds
of men aud women when n little hand
sifd) stole into mine, und I looked down
to find a girl of M staiidiug beside inc.
She was bare headed, bare-looted, ragged
aod unkempt a fair specimen of scores
of children on the block. I smoked my
cigar a long minute, and looked down at
her before she said:
"Come up and sec him."
"Who?" I asked.
"Daddy."
"Where is he?"
"Fifth fl ior up over there," poiuting
to a tenemeut across the street.
"Is he sick?"
"Awful bad."
She did not let go of my hand as we
crossed the street, nor yet us we pushed
our way through the chattering men and
women on the sleps und dodged the cry
ing children sprawled out iu the hall.
Up the steep flights of stairs wo went,
side by side, neither of us sayiog a word
until we reached the fifth floor. I had
to stop there for breath, aud she clasped
my hand more lightly as she said:
"Can you tell when a nun's going to
die?"
"I guess so."
She opened the door to a single rooui,
iu which was u miserable old stove, a deal
table, two chairs and a wretched bed. It
was lighted by the cheapest of lamps, and
a blind man could have told that the
place was the abode of poverty aud de
spair. On the bed lay a man, whose
ghostly face, shining eyes and thin hands
told the nature of the disease ut a glance.
He looked at uie curiously as I turned
up the flam.-of the lamp and sat down
at his bedside.
' He's come to see you, daddy," said
the little girl as she took one of his
hands in both of hers.
' Doctor?" he queried.
"No."
"Charity?"
"I shall be glad to help you."
"It's too late!" he whispered. "I've
been ailing lor months and mouths. I've
been lyina; right here for weeks und
weeks, huiigrri'ig. starving and suffering.
Tho end has finally come, uuil you ale
too late!"
"Has no on- given you aid?" I asked.
"I've had the crusts they throw to
d ig-!" he bitterly replied. "If they'd
given me work six mouths ago I'd have
been all right. I traniied up aud down
and ucross, iu r.iiu uud storm, but there
wis no work for uie. What's a man
more or h ss in the world? Who iu
New York eaies whether a man is ill or
well?'
"I'll bring a doctor and then see if 1
can't get yoj iuto a hospital "
"It's days too late!" he replied.
"We'd been all right, daddy, if they'd
giveu us a show, wouldn't we?" said the
girl as she gave him Water in it broken
teacup.
"Aye! Meg," he replied in a stronger
voice, "All wo wanted was work-
show to earn our bread a ehaucc to live
with others! But we couldn't get it.
We've Wen driveu from spot Io spot
evicted threatened ground into the
mud of the streets. It was cold aud
storm aud starvation which brought this
Oil me, and the end will come in a day
or two more.
"Aud are you two all alone?'' I asked
"Jest daddy and m," replied the girl.
" The rest are dead, aud I thank (led
for it!" whispered the in an. "I wish
Meg was going with me!"
"What will beeoine of her?"
"Dou't you kuoA? ' be luirly shoutid
as he lilte I hiini Il io gel ti le tter Io, k
at me. "She'll b thrown nut l,i wander
the streets to find liiendi iiinong the

but for Meg -but i thinking wbut will
become of her!"
"Dou't I ret, , id ly -J ml ti.l about
me!" wliisperel the child as she pallid
his head "I'll find a place to wmk. I
shan't turn out hid. I'm goiu' to To
up tub,! a giol wmi in like in iimns
was."
I wauled to s.iy encouraging words to
her, but tln-y would nut come. Of what
use to hold out hope tn a mm in ihe
shadow of death? In ilio five years I
had knocked about the east Bide I had
seeu a hundred just such cases of woe
aud wretchedness aud despair. The girl
went down to the street with me to
bring back food. She said never a word
to mc as she took my hand und we do
acended Ihe stairs. When wo were in
the atreet she asked:
"Will daddy gel over it?"
"No, dear; he may die any hour."
I filled a basket with food at the gro
cer's aod accompanied her back Io the
door of Ihe tenement.
;'It's awlul good of you!" she said as
she received the basket. i
"I'm glad to help yon, little one. I
only wish I could do more."
"Shall you come ngaiii?''
"Yes, in a day or two."
It was four days before I climbed the
stairs again. The room which I had
visited was now occupied by another fain-
i'y-
"There was a sick man here," I said
to the woman who answered my knock.
"Yes, but he's dead and btiiied," she
replied.
"And Ihe little girl the sick man's
daughter?"
"Meg why, she jumped into the rivei
after they took her father away!"
That was all. Not a sigh not a word
of regret not a whi'per of pity. Down
on the other floors they had seeo a cuflin
carried in und out had heard the sobs
of a child us she followed it had per
haps lowered their voices for a moment
in the presence of death. The dead had
been carried to a pauper's gravo the
living had walked down to the river
out to the end of the wharf and with
ucver a pause and never a look around
nur a word she had leaped into Ihe water
and gone to join h, r dead!"
