How a Dog's Life Was Saved.
A horrible 1 raged y was nearly enacted
the other day at Gibraltar, just when
the Himalaya wa about to weigh anchor

when a large octopus rose to the sur
face and gave chase, making greedy
grabs at it with arms quite two feet long
from end to end. When the enemy waa
about to close on its victim a sailor fresh
from foreign parts appeared on the
scene, and, dragging from his much
tattooed breast a rival pet in the shape
of a marmoset, sent it to the rescue in a
basket.
The little cieatnre, half cat and half
monkey, must have been acquainted
alike with ita duties and the English
language, for it did rot seize the octo
pus, but, lay in? hands on the dog, was
safely hauled up. to the distrust of the
enemy and j v of friends. Altogether
it was a pretty piece of byplay, when
tender hearts weie sobbing aoieox to

Policewomen.
few Tork Tuum.
One Mrs. Blake has recently written
a Jotter to a partially e-U emed con tem
porary railing attention to the sys
tem Hlc outrages on the sacred Dess of
Worfl aft hood whfeh constant: per
petratea by the police. When a drunken
woman is arrested, she is arretted by a
man ; dragged to a police station, where
she is confronted bv a sergeant, who is
also a man ; and- finally locked uu in a
cell which is frrt;t!enly !0 elsrse prox
imity to other cells occupied bv men.
From the moment thit the policeman
lays his hand, except in kindnes, on
the intoxicaved woman to the moment
when a ma culine jailer thrusts her into
a cell, the sacrpdness of her oman
hood is outraged. To remedy this pain
fill StrttH Of thiHtrSi f ra ftlak-o ...Ml.KA...
that a number of policewomen should
be appointed, whose business it should
be to take charge of women who arc ar
nsted, and to fee that the sac redness of
their womanhood is not outraged by
subjecting them to the gaze or handling
of policemen. This is a simple remedy,
and it will, of course, te immediately
adopted.
ThBugh Mrs. Blakb Uontehta herself
with demanding that policewomen shall
employed at police stations in order
to tafee charge of women who have been
arrested, it is obvious that policewomen
bhou'd also have the exclusive power to
arrest offenders of their own sex. If
(he sacred nees of woman must not Vw
outraged at a police station It ought flot
Id be Outraged in the street. We mflst,
therefore, hive a double and bisexual
police force. The policemen will arrest
ma'e offenders, and the policewomen
will arrest women, aod the arrest of axy
person by an officer oi another sex must
be declared unlawful. If women are
protected from policemen, men must be
proteoted from policewomen ; otherwise,
the mate drunkard Will be liable to have
the Sacredhrss of his ftaftbrjod .vjo'ated
by having a policewoman's band laid ofl
hw modest thoulder.
The adoption of this plan would re
quire the police authorities to double
the patrols. Every policeman, when
goine on doty, would be required to
give his arm to a policewoman and pa
trol his district in company with her.
O her wise, there would be a difficulty in
making prompt arrests. A policeman,
finding a drunken woman disturbing
the Peace, might respectfully request
Her to wait While he called a pollceWo
man to arrest her, but in all probability
she Would not Wait, and atter taunting
the officer with his inability to outrage
the sacred ness of her womanhood by
laying his hands upon ber, would retire
to another precinct, if, however, the
policeman and policewoman were to
hunt in couple they would not only be
able to arrest evil-dcers with prompt
ness and propriety, but they would ex
ercise an excellent influence on each
other. The policeman would have his
masculine nature purified and refined
by association With the policewoman,
nnd she would gain strength and firm
ness of character from him. Just as
Mrs. Beiva Lockwood has purified the
atmosphere of the bar by becoming a
laywer, woman, if admitted to the force,
would purify and ennoble it to that ex
tent that a policeman would exhibit the
modesty and sweetness of a young lady.

Joe Parsons' Adventure.
Philadelphia Times.)
Joe Person f was a Baltimore boy. and
a little rough, bnt withal a good-hearted
fellow and a . brave soldier. He got
badly wounded at Antietam, and thus
laconically described the occurrence,
and what followed to some people who
visited the hospital :
"What is your name!"
"Joe Parson?."
"What is the matter?"
"Blind as a bat, sir; both eyes shot
out."
"At what battle ?"
"Antietam."
"How did it happen?"
"I was hit and knocked down, and had
to lie al) night on the battle-field. The
birht was renewed next dav. and I was
under fire. I could stand the pain, but
could not see. T wanted to see or tret
out of the fire. I waited and listened,
and presently heard a man groan near
me.
" 'Hello V says I.
" 'Hello yourself,' says he.
" 'Who be you?' says I.
" 'Who be you?' savs he.
" 'A Yankee,' savs I.
" 'Well, I'm a Rib,' asy he.
" 'What's the matter?" says t
" 'My leg's smashed,' says he.
" Tan yju walk?" says I.
" 'No,' ays he.
' 'Can 3 oa see V says T.
'Yes.' says he.
"'Well,' says f, 'you're a rebel,
but
I'll do tou a little favor.
"'What's that,' says ho.
" 'My eyes are shot out,' says I, 'and if
you'll show me the way, I'll carry 30a
out,' ssys I.
"'All rightl' -ayt he
" 'CrawJ over here,' says I ; and he
did.
" 'Now old Butternut,' says I, "get on
mv back;' and he dH.
" (i ) ahead,' savs be.
" 'Pint the way,' says I, 'for I can't
ees a ble-sed thing.'
" 'Straieht ahead,'" says be.
"The balis were a flyin a'l round,
and I tn t ted ofl and was soon out of
range.
' 'Bully for you,' says he, 'but you've
shook my leg almost ofl.'
" 'Take a drink,' sajs he, holaing up
his canteen, and I took a nip.
" -Now, let us go on aga n,' says h.
'kind ' slowly,' and I took bim up, and
he did the navigation and T did the
walkin'. After I bad carried bim nearly
a mile, and was near y dead, he said :
'Here we are; let me down.' Just then
a voice said: 'Hello, Biliy; where did
you get that Yank?
" 'Where are we? savs I.
" 'In the rebel camp, cf course,' says
he: and d n my buttons if that rebel
hadn't ridden me a mile straight into
the rebel camp. Next day McClellan's
army advanced and took tu both in, and
then we shook hai.ds and made it up;
but it waa a mean trick, don't you
think so?"

LESLEY AND IRENE.
BY MARY REED CEOWELL.
Such a look as was on Irene Iredell's
face such a piteous, hunted look in the
intensely beautiful gray eyes such
visible, desperate attempt at self-control,
lest Paine Alliger should understand
bow deeply his words had cot home.
But Pine Alliger saw the white
pitilul face, and the anguished eyes,
and the proud, compressed lipa that were
paler than he ever, had seen them
sweet, luscious lips he had kissed again
and again and rather enjoyed the
knowledge of ha influence over her.
She had been so proud at the first, so
reserved and unapproachable, that Al
liger had been immediately thrown
upon entirely new rescourc s in order
to form an acquaintance with her.
Then very gradually, as an icicle
slowly melts beneath the suddenly warm
rajs of spring-like winter-day son,
she had grown into something more than
an acquaintance, yet leas than a friend,
until by deg-ees it had grown to this
that Paine Alliger had come to be all
the world to her.
He had been an ardent, pers'stent
wooer. He had been just the oce man
who ever c uld have hoped to touch
Irene Ire-r-ells h art the flrt, the last,
the only one and ore j won, h r icy
hautt ur waa banish d forevtr towards
bim, and she unhesitatingly gave him
a'l the great love and adoration of which
only such natures as hers are capible.
There bad been one little, little month
of bieasedne s. in which it seemed toiler
so much of perfect content was com
press, a that it was hardly le-s than
dangerous to her after peace toaoc pt it.
And then, suddenly, sharply, just like a
flash of lightening from a sky apparet.t'y
free of storm, because the dark, r lliog
don Is only happen to be a little 1 eynnd
one's range of v sion just so start) irg'y
and unawares did it come to her Pa n't
Alliser's deft ct on.
For he had come, he had seen, h had
sworn to be conqueror, and be bad con
quered, thoroughly, wholly, nn reser
vedly ; and then the sweets pall-d oo bis
t ste.
H was a thoroughly selfish man, and
perhaps as handsome a man as ever ,
which two conditions so often go t
gether. He was thorough!? refined,
too, and so mercilessly crael in his
aesthetic tasUs. He wa nasterful
none other than a pr nee among his
fellows could h .ve toccbed Irene Ire
dell's heart and h had been eager
and devoted in his chase after this girl's
heart, more than was his wont.
Bat now he was tired of it. Once
won, his prise lost ita value, and this
haughty, perfect woman a pare
jewel, worthy the poese-aion of the best
tn the land was very quietly, In a very
gentlemanly way, discarded.
It was characteristic of the man that
he went to her and told her what a
thousand other men would have shrur k
from doing personally. Bat Paine Alli
ger wanted to ee bow she would look,

htw she would act, bear what a Wtmld
say, when he told ber, in his caressing,
pityios, rsitemt way, how his heart
bad ruled his bead, hw her rare sweet
ness and charming inflame bad ssade
bim forget his duty, his honor; how,
anguieLlul as it was to him, how agoniz
ing to her, he felt it was none 'the less
bis dear dnty to go away f rm her for
e.Ter anr return to the one who had a
prijr claim Upon hfm-tbe fair woman
who, although she would take his name,
could sever touch his heart aa she had
done.
It was in some such stra;n as thia that
?te fbolre te her. watch ins averv shade
of change on br beatttifsl face, seeing
the almcet awful cofltrri! the forced upon
herself, and, rather than otherwise, en
joying it
Then, when he had finished, she
looked np to him with a steady, anguish,
fnl lorfV--!th a piteous, heart-broken
look in her eyes, a white despair in her
face cuch a look as one hi'gb t tnw
upon a dear, dead face, over which the
cssV-i.ud is to be forever closed the
next relentlefis t&ontant.
" It must be as vou 83?.-" aha said.
broktnly Irene Iredell, the haughiir
woman he ever bad seen in all his varied
experience. "It bas always been as vou
said with me, and if it is my fate to be
left like ibie"
Then, as if hr old pride rebelled
against the outcry of Iter Women's
scorned love, she sharply hesitated,
compressing ber line till it tsemea to
Alliger, as be stood watching every ex
pression, every gesture, every shade of
paling color, as a physician watches the
ominous change on a dying man's coun
tenance, that she never could part them
again.
But that old pride struggled oat in
one swift, brief protest, and the com
pressed Hps cfpened in obedience.
"Perhaps I should be grateful to know
this now. When you go back to the
other woman, I wish you joy of her."
But the sweet face was more dismayed
and despairing than the voice was sax
cast c) or the manner haughty.
Then he Went away, with gentle, pity
ing adieux, when Irene would far rather
be bad been even rough and crael, so
that she might have retained some
memory of him that hurt her.
But it was part of his consummate
plan that she should only re men ber
i im as he desired to be remembered;
and when he got himself ont of the
boose, on the road to the depot, on bis
way back to Liesley May, somehow
somehow he did not eni- y bis triumph
for which be had neglected all other
things; Eomehow there was a sarra tic
echo in his ear as he thought of it
" the othef Woman ; I wish yon joy of
ber! '
Lesley May " the other woman "
bonny and fair as a blue-bell, with her
pale gold hair flowing down her 'boul
ders front the Grecian fillet of pallid
blueribb m she always wore her pansy
blue eyes shining, her rosebud mouth
waiting for Paine AUiger's ki-ses of
greeting, and Paine Alliger watching
her, as the carriage drove up to the cot
tagegatefaDd thinking brw remarkably
pretty and eirlish she was how daintily
fr sh and charming.
A sea-breeze was blustering, stirring
her shining hair, swaying her blue lawn
skirt, and bringing a faint carnation to
her cheeks, that deepened aa Alliger
sprang down from the carriage and
went np to her the first time in six
months she had seen him.
"I did so want you, Paine," she said,
half eagerly, half in tender ftp oof,
after they had gone into tbe parlor
large, high-ceiled, matting-floored, with
lace drapery floating in the breeze.
"And how do yon suppose it bas been
with me, my aweet, all these weary,
stupid weeks, with only your dear let
ters to relieve the monotony of dry-as
dust business?"
Her head was nestled contentedly on
his shoulders, his arm close around ber
WalSt.
"And is it all done, Paine all over
with thia horrid business that has kept
you buried in a wretched little town so
long?-'
A carious sensation thrilled bim at
her question.
"AU done with, my darling forever
done ' A re you glad 7"
And, between her w rapturous answer
and his question, Irene Iredell's pale,
splendid face, with its passionate, trop
ical eyes, glided like an accusing ghost
Aft r thatwell, Paine A I linger son
dered what had come Over bim. All
the bright, ardent summer-time he
lingered at tbe seaside in L-sh y's com
psn'y. She was bright, bonny, witc' -ing
aa ever, and devoted to him; Lut
It fretted him, angered him at first,
lo find that be could not get rid of Irene
Iredell's face. It haunted bim as a
dream will haunt a dreamer. He
seemed to have no power over bis will
and imagination tu thrust tbe remem
brance of her from him.
Gradually he grew to c mrar.n ; hrr
queenly ways w th Lesley's kittenish
ones. Gradually he came to an appre
ciation of tbe exqu site reli-a there bad
been in winning such perfect treasure
of passion as were deep bidden in her
heart.
And, in contradistinction, Lesley's
ever-ready, ever-demonstrative affe -tion,
that, curious enough, stemed
somehow to pall upon him.
While, three months before, he had
told himself that, Irene Iredell's love,
safely won, largely bestowed even witb
ber delicious way of reserve, a'to palled
upon him.
Alliger was thoroughly nn1 appy. He
had played with fire, thinking be bore
the charm that would prevent tbe
scorching; and Irene wss certainly be
ing revenged; while that one powder
flash of a speech she had irade ' That
other woman; I wish vou joy of her!"
ranked deep and hurtful.
Jyof her! Lesley May, whom he
bad first wooed with just each ardent
wooing ss he wss so capable of. wom
be bad utterly thrown over in his mind,
and heart, and faith, while pursuing
cold Irene, for whom he bad in torn
cruelly thrown Irene over, then goo
back to her.
It was like a return to plain r, frugal
sauas of milk and porridge, after the
epicure bas dined oa rarest dishes, most j
toothsome da n ties, sp cisst relishes, in- ,
toxical ing wines and a nothing had
ever before pa' led ut on bim, as nothing ;
bad ever fallen fist and stale to bim.
this return to bis firs faith, his pledged
word, bsrassed him.
Bo much that, in a desperation new to -f
him, be declared to Lesley he most be
ofl from tbe Iotns-sting life st tbe sea- j
shore sad back to business at least, i
partially. And then she had pouted,
and scolded, and cried all in vain to de- j
tain him, sue let him go with kisses,
and urgent beaeechings for return.
While be promised yes. and went as
directly tn Irene Insdstt's bona, mm

almost hating the thoucht of Laavlew

on the topen Mutfnt Washington, one

after Lesley's fuptumas greetings.
' Don't psss me by this way, Irene,

the id est of bow-., nd detained her by
laying his bend on her arm.
She looked tip st him, haughty,
angry, yet he could dot fail to see the
pale, set look on her beam it al face.
" This ia unwarrantable, Mr. AlUgsr.
Remove your band."
The same exquiri'e voice, whose con
tralto tones set every nerve in rebellion
against his fate.
"Can you not understand ? You shall
understand, Irene, that I have regretted
that I ever allowed anything, say one,
to some between us. I loved you when
I gave you up. I have loved yoo every
moment since. I have been to your
borne, wherever I thought you might be.
I tn corns to you now, Irene, Irene I to
tell you no other Woman can, or shall
cfrase between us! Irene 1"
Re smiled fsiutiy.
" You are woman," he said faintly.
" No, she does not know," be went on,
passion creeping to his votes again;
" but she will know. I dare say I de
serve to be thiown over by you, but
Lesley May shall never be my wife, not
even if you persist in your cruelty to us
both ; for you love me you do love me
and your heart bears me witnessof it.
I will not marry Lesley May, because I
do not love her. You will uot listen to
me. and you do love me."
A little shiver ran over her. Hia
words were so masterful, as of old, and1
his influence over her had always been
powerful. But she only smiled coldly,
and bowed and passed, and left Alliger
as no woman bad ever succeedd7 la
making bim feel before.
And, five minutes after he bad taken
himself away from the spot whirr Irene
bad left him, Lesley May crept slowly
up from, beside the bugs upturned surf
boat, where sbe had been sitting, think
ing, reading aad dreaming sweet
dreams, until the sudden sound of her
lover's voice had startled her, and
"Typhoid malignant typhoid," Doc
tor Merselis said, very gravely to Mrs,
Fales. " No doubt caused by impure
water, imperfect drainage. Hhe will
need strictest care strictest care ; and
even then "
Irene lifted her calm, lovely fsoe to
his.
" Is there Sanger that Miss May will
die?"
" Typhoids are always uncertain, my
dear Miss Iredell, and in a measure in
fectious; but I think, with proper pre
caution, vou need not be personally
alarmed"
She silenced him with one of ber im
perious looks.
" I am not afraid, sir. I intend to
offer my services as Miss May's nurse, if
she is redly in danger, and needs intelli
gent care. I am used to sickness."
Nor had persuasions nor reproofs any
effect upon her. She quietly went ber
way, and took up her post at Lesley
May's bedside ; end then, and only then,
in the girl's ravings, did slie learn tbe
woe, tbe anguish, tost was st the bot
tom of tbe terrible illness.
And as Paine Alliger had almost
killed ber once, so now soother life
hung in the b dance on bis account.
While be, in such dismay and despair
as be never dreamed he could suffer,
passed his wretched dsys and nights, all
bis thoughts centered on that sick-room,
where the two women who loved bim
were faee to face with Axrael.
Aad then, one day, ibe news went

And sgsin, as he tried In vsin to real

seemed to bim that no such punishment
bad erer come to mortal man before ;

nary mortal h would undoubtedly have
used language bordering on the profane.
He did not ; perhaps be was unable to

He rushed borne witb that deasicsted

"Here, dear, bow do you like it?
Tbought I would rive you a specimen
