Her Lost Father.
Youth’s Companion.
A “burning mine” is always one
of the terrible contingencies in the
hard life of the men tvho dig our
coal for U3. A Pennsylvania pape
relates this heart-rending incident of
the Midlothian Mine horror last win
ter. After the mouth of the burning
mine had been kept open as long as
possible. Supt. Dodds mounted a
coal car, and addressing the wailing
throng of women and children -a
round him, said:
“My poor friends, it grieves me to
have to state to you that for the pre
sent our search for the bodies of
those you know and loved will have
to be abandoned. You know what
fire in a coal mine means, and it
may take months of watching to sub
due it. We will close the pit now.”
The speaker’s voice quivered with
emotion. When he finished a beau
tiful little girl of fourteen years, An
nie Crowder, the only daughter of
one of the victims, uttered a pierc
ing scream and rushed to the mouth
of the pit, crying,—
Ob, do not leave my dear papa to
burn there. Let me go into the cage
and gs down after him. Let me save
him.
The strong arms of the miners
held her back as the fragile thing
tried to make her way to the cage,
and more than one blackened lace
was made blacker as the band went
up to wipe away the tears. Men
sobbed aloud and turned away to con
ceal their emotion. The little girl,
finding her progress barred, swooned
at the mouth of the pit.
anguish. The husband comes home
worn out with the pressure of busi^
ness, and feeling irritable with the
world in general; but when he enters
the cozy sitting-room, and sees the
blaze of the bright fire, his slippers
placed by.loving hands in readiness
and meets his wife’s smiling face, he
succumbs at once to the soothing in
fluences which act as the balm of
Gilead to his wounded spirits, that
are wearied with combating the
stern realities of life. The rough
.school-boy flies in a rage from tAe
taunts of his companions to find so
lace in his mother’s smile. The lit
tle one, full of grief with its own
largo trouble, finds a haven of rest
on its mother’s bosom. And so one
might go on with instance after in--
stance of the influence a sweet, mind
ed woman has in the social life with
which she is connected.
Moral Courage.
Band of Hope.
In every school the difference is
clearly marked between the boy who
has the moral courage and the boy
who is mere pulp. The one knows how
10 say “No.” .Tne other is so afraid
of being thought “verdant” that he
soon kills everything pure and fresh
and manly in his character, and dries
up into a premature hardness of
heart.
Five'lads wJro gathered in a room
at a boarding school, and four of
them engaged in a game of cards,
which was expressly forbidden by the
rules. One of the players was call
ed out. The three said to the quiet
lad, who was busy at something
else ;
‘•Come and take a hand with us.
It is too bad to have the game br ok
en up.”
“I do not know one card from an
other.”
“That makes no difference,” ex,,
claimed the players. “We’ll show
you. Come along.”
Now that was a tuining point iii
that boy’s life.
He nobly said;
‘•My father does not wish roe to
play cards, and I will not disobey
him.”
That sentence settled the maRer
and settled his position among his
associates. He was tha boy who
could say “No,” .and henceforth his
victories were made sure and easy.
I well remember the pressure brought
to bear in a college upon every ^/oung
roan to join in a wine drink or to
take a hand in some contraband
amusement. Some timber got well
seasoned. Some of the other sort
got well rotted through with sensual
ity and vice. The Nehomiahs at
college have been Nehemiahs ever
since. The boy was the father of
the man.

Women’s Influence on So
cial Life.
St, James Magazine-
Men as a rule, are easily attracted
by a.beautiful face^but it is an inter
nal beauty of character by which a
woman can exert the greatest amount
of influence, A iroe-minded man,
though at first enamored by the glare
of porsenal beauty, will soon feel the
hollowness . of its charms when, he
discovers the lack of beauty in mind
Inestimably , great is the influence
that a sweet-minded woman may
wield over those around her. It is
to her that friends would come in
seasons of sorrow and sickness for
help and comfort. One soothing
touch of her kindly hand would work
wonders in the feverish child. A few
words let fall from her lips in the
ear of a sorrowing si*ter, would do
much to rai.se the load of grief that
is bowing its victim down to. dust in
Must Di’ink or Die,
When the use of alcoholic liquors
reaches a point where a man must
“drink or die,” it is a sure sign that
he will soon dri'uk and die. The
terrible power which the appetite for
intoxicants has over its slaves is vi
vidly illustrated in the following in
cident:
One wintry afternoon a trembling
man entered a tavern in New Hamp
shire carrying a small package of
clothing. Going to the bar he said:
“Landlord, I am burning. Give
me a good g’ass of gm.”
The landlord pointed to a line of
chalk marks and said.
“John, you see the old score—not
another drop till that is paid.”
The poor wretch glared fiercely at
the man behind the bar.
‘•Landlord, you don’t mean that.
You have got my farm, you have got
my horses, you. have got my tools.
All that I have got in this world is
in this little bundle of clothes.
Please, landlord, give me for them
one glass of gm.”
“I don’t want your old clothes,”
calmly answered the man. “Pay the
old score first.”
The drunkard staggered back. A
•gentleman then said:
‘•What will you give me for-fen-
ough to buy two glasses of giu. I
see you have a good pair of boots on
your feet Will you give me your
boots for tbe ten cents
The miserable wretch hesitated
for a moment, then said;
“Stranger, if I give you the boots,
I must go out in the snow barefoot
ed. If I give you the boots I must
fieeze to death; if I don’t give them
to you I shall burn to death. Stran
ger, it is harder to burn than to
freeze to death; give me the gin you
may have the boots,”
He sat down and began te draw
them off. The gentleman did not,
ho'wever, intend to take them, but he
was testing the strength of the ter
rible appetite. Others were looking
on and they said the man should have
his gin. T'ney supplied him liberal
ly, and he drank all he could and
took all the rest way. When night
came ha drank the last drop, and he
went to sleep in a barn. Tbe frost
king came and took the poor man in
his arms. The next nwrning he was
found in the barn frozen to death.
Doing the Sourli Justice.
THE PLAIN SPOKEN MICHiaAN POLI
TICIAN WHO IS AEBAID TO LOSE.
HJS GRIP.
Detroit Free Press, ,
In Charleston I met a Michigand--
er who has served two terms in the
Michigan Legislature, held a Feder
al office of some prominence in the
State, and been famous as a politici
an in the Republican party. After
we had walked around for an hour I
asked;
“Now, then, ■what do you think of
these people!^ You have seen them
with their coats off, and can-judge
them as they are.”
‘•I tell you I’m ashamed of my
self!” was the reply. “When I think
of bo-rf wo have lied about them
and their institutions I am ashamed
to look them in the face.”
“Have they treated you well?”
“Splendidly.”
“And they knew you were from
the North.®”
“Yes.”
“And that you were a strong Re
publican.®”
‘•Yes.”
‘•And what do you think of the
darky?”
“D—h him, d—n him!” was his
hearty exclamation. “Wa wouldn’t
stand ihe half from him that the
South does. He is lazy, shiftless^
thievish, and a general nuisance.
I’ve talked with a score of ’em, and
they are as ignorant as our horses.
They vote my ticket, but they can’t
tell me why. They have no reason,
no argument, no principle, and so
little sense that I wonder bow ibey
get through the week.”
“When you return home you’ll do
tha South justice?”
•“How?”
“Why, you’ll talk to your party
members just as you have talked to
me?”
‘•N—0, I can’t do that,” he an
swered. “If I should go back and
tell ’em exactly how things are I’d—■
I’d—”
“You’d lose your grip?”
“Exactly.
“And to keep your grip you must
continue to lie about, abuse, and ma
lign the people who have taken you
to their dinner tables and shown you
every possible kindness and oourte-
s\ ! You must continue to claim that
they don’t give the black man a fair
show when you know better! You
must continue to call ’em rebels,
when you see every Federal law
obeyed, and everybody contented and
happy! Colonel, politics is nasty
business.”
“Cuss politics!” he growled, as he
left me at the corner.
