Number Ninety-nine stood pulling and blowing off steam at the water tank of a little wayside station— a beauty and marvel of brass and iron and steel; strong beyond simile, makplay of the hundred coal cant it drew swiftly along, with its eye piercing the darkness as a noonday sun, with its breath of fleecy steam and of volcanic tire, ami John Ijtthrop stood with hand upon whistle and throttle waiting the signal to "go ahead." John Lathrop peejied out of the cab window into the biting cold and sleet burdened air — thinking- of the hard winter — the almost starvation prices to which wages had been reduced, and than aU. of his humble home and bright eyed little boy of half a dozen years, who was then dreaming that "papa" would be home to breakfast and spend the Sunday with them. "It's hard to be poor," he eakl, the icy frost from his heavy beard and mustache, "and it does seem as if the company might be a little more liberal after the way they worked us and piled up stamps during Uie centennial. But— "John, here's a tramp," sang out the fireman from the iutedor of the water tank. "That's nothing new /' was the answer. "They were plenty all summer as black berrien. " "But the poor fellow's half starved and frozen, and begs so hard for a ride."

"Ride? Humph! And get sent up {or thirty days if any of the big guns of the road find it out?" The light from the open furnace door shone fuU upon the face of the tramp as be stepped from the desolate, icy tank where be had paused to gain something of shelter even if little warmth. A rapid sign passed between him and the engineer, and the Utter continued: "Come aboard. Ill take the chances. 1 don't think the conductor will give 1 me away, and mighty clear of the brakemen showing their faces more than they can possibly help such a night 1 as this. Anyhow, I'm not going to I leave a fellow being to starve or freeze 1 to death, for all the railroad companies this side of Canada. Blessed if I do! Come aboard, old fellow. " The tramp obeyed the summons, and i his scanty pinched -up face told how i sadly be was in need of warmth and ' food. The roaring furnace quickly i supplied the one and the dmner pails < of the engineer and fireman the other, i though they would have to fast till I morning and would sadly miss their i hot coffee. Two shrieks of the whistle, a tug at the lever, ami Ninety-nine started and I shot away with the long train following i behind like an immense black serpent, I over air line, around curves, through tdnoel and a areas bridges. Then John > Lathrbp had lima to mora closely sen*- » Unite and talk to his unpaying paitten- i gar. The mystic sign that liad passed > between them tokl brotherhood and « saved the way to his thinking wall of 1 him. i "You aren't used to tramping, and > hain't been very long at it?" said John, i quietly at the rapid manner I la which the supper of himself and < fireman was dtnappearing. I "Not much, Cully," replied the < tramp, pausing with a biscuit in one I hand and the half-picked leg of a turkey in the other, to answer. a "Cully?" repeated John, eyeing him a still mora sharply. "You are a show- c man?" I |' W as, and another few days like the i "sat and I could play walking Mete* c to perfection," and be g anoed up at « the engineer with a pair of the blackest h eyas, and s tmem marked with resolution i "^W Stt&r ' John 1 "Bar and trapeze " ' ji lis did Ml appear to hare Una to i

spare to make lengthy replies — only uttered the briefest |*oesiblc between mouthful*; and noticing thin. Id* questioner tstused until he had finished his almost wolf -like meal and theu resumed. "1 used to kick up my heels and strut over Uie sawdust ouce myself." "You?" "Yea, but I gave it up years agohad a ltftle set-to with a tiger, and got nearly chawed up. And you don't look as if you Itad fared much better. Here's a pipe — smoke and spin your yarn. Well, 1 did the flying-trapeze and ail that sort of thing in the G and Transcontinental and Ever • so - many -other-thing-circus. Humbug was a belter name, as it turned out for us. Yet I reckon we might have got our pay if it had been a success. B\it we had a liard time of it. The public didn't appreciate— horses gave out, w agous broke down, the 'premiere equestrienne' ran away with 'Bones' or the sideshow, funds run low, the great polar beat wanted his ice, became disgusted and turned up his toes; the zebra pamcd in hi* checks, and the result was that we became flat-broken, and had to leave our baggage and take the tramp iu order to get home." "Been there myself,' • said John Lathrop becoming deeply interested. "Then 1 needn't tell you what sort of a time I have had footing it, stealing rides and begging for something to eat. " "Bad enough iu summer," growled John. — "But now? Talk of the North polo. Whew! I thought I would freeze to death in tluit old tank with the water dripping and freezing around me; and if you hadn't takeu care of me, guess I'd have thrown inyself under the cars and put an eud to the thing. What's the use of fighting hard times and bud luck forever?" "Well cheer up. You're all right now — that is, to the end of my run. Then you shall go home with me and recruit a bit, and it'll go hard if I can't manage to get you a free ride with some of the boys to the end of the road. It's against all orders, but John laitlirop's got a heart iu hbu and won't let any one suffer if he can help it— not much." His presence attested the truth of his wonl*. He was tall, broad shouldered and deep chested, and his face told of "goodness" in every feature, and bis maimer, if bluff, was hearty. In the physical the stranger was his opposite. Yet his frame was strongly knit and hi* muscles trained by severe and long continued exercise until they stood out as whipcords, strictly obeyed his will and were revealed by every line about the mouth. "I don't know," be said, looking at the engineer thankfully, "how 1 am ever to pay yon. My life you certainly saved, and it may be I can do you a good turn some day. If Che chance comes you can depeud upon my doiug it, for I'm not one to forget a favor." "I believe it. But don't think of my giving you a ride and a bite. It's no more titan any man that wasn't a brute would have duue and who knows but either I or my bov, when he grows up, may want a lift of Uie same kind." "Your boy?" "Yes, the brightest, cutest little chap you ever saw. I'll show him to you to-morrow. Yes, and my wife, too— just the prettiest, dearest little woman tlial ever walked in two shoes." Number Ninety-nine was running smoothly and steadily along. It was Sunday morning, and there was nothing in the way— no up train to pas* until John Lathrop would uncouple his iron steed and put him iu the grout round stable to rest, and be cleaned, for twenty-four hours. So, while the fireman kept his eyes ahead, John 1aLhrop seated himself, and, keeping watch on the steam gunge end his eyes, open told of h» early life under canvas, hfav present home happiness, and the eyed, blithe hearted ones thai were waiting there to welcome him. "The life of an engineer," he said, 'has its ups and downs the same as any other, and is full of danger, and a sharp lookout, a strong hand and quick decision. I know one is never safe, and my Jennie often talks of what narrow escapes I've had, and shivers as she thinks how others have killed running over this very road." "Why don't you give it up?" "Well, there's nn excitement about 1 like aud i he pay is certain, though it aren't what it ought to lie, considering the risks we have to run and how we ever carry* our lives in our hands, an one might say. Keep a sharp lookout, Jack." (To the fireman.) "Iremember well running over this very same section oh such a night as this, three years ago, aud going smash through the culvert over the Big Stony, and breaking things generally. Engine, tender and half a dozen oars were stove and piled up together, my fireman killed, and I was dragged out front under the wreck, pretty badly scalded and used up. But my time hadn't come yet, and I was soon on the read again and—" "Something on the track I Looks like somebody waving a lantern, hut the sleet is so thick 1 can't rightly make it out," shouted the fireman. John lathrop sprang to his post, made the whistle shriek like an imprisoned and tortured fiend, reversed the engine and whistled on brake*. But trained eye instantly «tw ittkt it would be of no use— that he conk! not check the headway of- the heavy train time to avert running over the object, be it what it nugt, for the track

a y that eacajie was impossible. Besides, ii they were upon the "something upon * the track" before they were aware of d it, having just rounded a sharp curve, t- "There is my home," gasped John 1 Athrop, pointing out Into the glooui. J "The Big Stony is just ahead, and— Oh, ihy God! if the culvert should have given way, and my boy have come to - give me warning!" t "Your home— your boy?" echoed the t tnunp." "Great Heaven! yes," and the struutr r man became uuuerved and robbed of all decision. 1 "It is a boy!" shouted the fireman. - "Aud may God have mercy upon him, - I believe it is your Johu!" i The piuMmger ^paid nothing, but a I wild determination Hashed from his t eyes as he arose, climbing out along i the side of the mounter engine — a Jug- - gemaut immense enough to have r- crushed hundreds at a time beneath it* » ponderous wheel. Then the midday — , like ftuitbeatns of the head -light streamr ed out and made all plain to hiin. de1 spite the thick sleet and darkness. 1 He saw (and a shiver other than that l produced by the cold istssed through • him) a boy standing directly aheud in i the deep cut, waving a lantern, whose blood red globe shone like an evil eye. - though still at a little distance, he seemed directly under foot aud about t to be dragged down and devoured, r "He saved my life," mattered the ' tnunp fretn ltetweeu his tightly set I teeth, "and I will do as much for him, if I can. Anyway, I'll try, and I . haven't anybody to mourn for me if I » do go under." r His resolution was a desperate one, I and must be carried out without the i delay of a single moment, if at all. He 1 swung himself down upon the pilot, « twisted his feet witliiq the iron hare, 1 and extended his body ahead as rigid as if carved from oak, and stretched his hands still in advance. It was a trying situation, one reI quiring the greatest courage— a position no one unused to feat* of strength > within the arena could have sustained ) at all. But he did, aud bravely, aud the engine rolled on nearer and nearer, and the boy, suddenly becoming aware of his danger and the hu|>oefitibiliiy at his escape, sank down upon the ties, i and his scream of mortal agony rung I out louder titan the jarring of tue wheels or the hissing of the steam: i "Father! father! save u»e. Oh, save i me!" Save luin? John I-athrop was kneeling on the floor of the cab, with his hands raised in prayer, his face white as snow, and working in the most terrible torture. The fireman had taken his place at the lever, throttle and whistle and the eugiue plunged with increased speed upon a down grade cruahiug Into atoms all that dare o\>poee it* wi\y. k It was upou— over the boy! No, > heaven be praised, the arms of the : tnunp had grasjied, lifted and dragged him u|ion the pilot and to safety before touched by the fire-breathing monster; k and when it paused, quivering upon k the very brink of the crippled culvert, 1 John l^athrop was holding his brave > hoy iu his arms, hugging hint to his heart, and crying over him as a w oinan. In the morn of a clear Sabbath, No. Nineiv-nine rolled into the station; and when John l*throp told his wife how their boy Itad been saved, and she . sprang to the stranger and kissed him from the impulse of her mother's bean, there was no jealous frown upon his brow. i i

/ Suu.rn Urwakar.ta. In East Fifty-eeveuth street. New l ork, is a large and liandsouie brown atone house, furnished like a private dwelling, ami caUed the Christian Home, for women who suffer from an inordinate use of intoxicating liquors or narcotic poisons, and who are not strong em. ugh to break up the habit without medical aid. Dr. and Mrs. A. P. Meylert are in charge. The late William E. Dodge gave the building to the association, and stipulated tiiat only women who could give reference* of good moral character should be aiirnUted The institution is sustained by Uie gift* of charitable people, aud patient* are not required to pay for support and treatineut unless they are knowu to be able to do so. Dr. Meylert said: "In the two mouUu' existent "f the institution we have had here for treatment many Christian women and women who move in the best known circtoi of society, aud it was for the benefit of such a* they Uiat the Home was started Do not imagine, though, that such women come here of their own accord. Their friends get their consent to be brought here. Of course such conwot is not easily obtained, for Utev will not acknowledge that thev are drunkards even to their dearest friend*. Thev differ from men in this respect. Their friends come to nte, however, and ask me to receive Uie inebriate wheu she goes on her next spree, for after her spree she is willing to go anywhere to get relief. There are exceptions to this rule. Here is one." Dr. Meylert turned to his desk and picked up a letter in the hand writing of a woman. "1 cannot give vou her name." he routinucd. "She is one of Uie most prominent and talented aclreoww in the city." The letter, which Dr. Meylert read aloud, intuiting the mimes in the reading, said that the actress Itad coucluded to go alone to some place where she could be watched and treated medically. She had just recovered from what her manager believed to be a serious sickness, hut it was simply a solitary debauch. The manager had not the faintest suspicion of toe cause of her sickness, for he Itad just signed with her for a new engagement. She had found herself unable to get rid of her "unfortunate trouble, " her "cures. " site added: "1 am williug to endure anything, suffer anything, to conquer this appetite. 1 had sunk into a low des|>ondeucy before resolving to seek help. 1 have lost confidence In myself. An irresistible power lias hold of me. " "Now, that woman lias dipsomania," said the physician, as he fokled the letter. "She has periodical fit* of insanity, and it is utterly impossible for her to reform by her own strength of will. She has tried twice to commit suicide, and was prevented by ber maid. She would get liquor when she craves it, even if, as Jefferson says in *Rip Van W ink le/ she had to cut off her leg to get it. But this nopr woutan i> franker thau any I ever knew. Most women patient* deny that they dnnk at all. riws litem with questions aud they will grant you with heatuuou that they lake a glma* of wine at dinner, or that, teeluig ill or faint in the street, they went to a drug store and asked for something, which unexpectedly proved to be gin. But they did not know what lite drug clerk was preparing— certain - l> not . 1 u fact, we cannot believe what the women say. We are guided by their friend*' statement*.

"A Boston lady ot great wealth wrote to me recently describing at length the 1 symptoms of 'her lady frieod.' and asked if the lady could be received a* a » paiient. 1 learned that ahe wits the partem herselt. You woukl be astonn , ded if I should mention the names of some well-known women in society who have been to Uie institution for treatment for inebnety. Their identity has been so carefully concealed that not one of the thirty ot more office is of the association knew they were recovering from their excesses her*-. I ant the only one outside of the families of the pattern* who knows theu names. Thev couic here looking frightfully, and after a treatment of a few weeks you woukl not recognize them. The doors are kept locked inside and outside, of course, for if Uie patient! could go out they would go straight to Uie nearewt liquor store. No, they do not ask me tor liquor. They know they won't got Uuo. But when they com* to me aud beg for relief from Um> pain in their sto m*ch>- mind you, not on# was ever known to admit that the pain is simply a craving for alcohol— 1 never turn , them away, but prescribe beef extract or rich milk, and when they are unabiv > to sleep from the craving for liquor 1 , give them sedative*. In two or three , week* they begin to mend, and Uieir , appetites are eiMi-mou*. Many on their , arrival have not eaten any solid food | fo» three weeks.

Why, \ Uiat electrical haitery on the table would j fell an oi to the floor when it* strongest current Is used: but a delicate traim*{/ i intoxicated woman will stand it and" , ask for mors.

The gentleman ordered wine, and was greatly surprised when she refused iL I, She Itad never refused it before He . did not know that she wa* a patient in . an inebriate asylum, and lie was kept in ignorance. He finished his win* • alone." "How do women acquire the habit?!' * y Often to drown a great sorrow. One 1 of my patient* in good ctrcum stances, and never known to take any stimulant , stronger than tea or coffee, was called , to ber kitchon one day by the shriek* of I her little girl. The little one's clothing . had caught fire from an exploded latnp, aud the child wa* burned to death bd- , fore the mother's eyes while she *r*a . unable to save it. JShe took brandy to . relieve the shock to Iter feeling*, wnd l continued drinking it to exewis. Ttfat t was thirteen year* ago. and site said to tne the other day: *My child burning . alive is always before me, eveu now after all these years. I tiave not been . able to endure iL My only safely now , la not to touch a drop. After the first glaa* I keep on aud drink u> tnseiisibil- \ Ity.' She has not touched a urop in r four month*, and I believe she will be . cured. "Another lady lost her only qou sodi denly, and wa* so overwhelmed with \ grief that she could not rest day or ■ night. Morphine wan given h>|*odermically. That was several year* ago. She visited the Home recently, and there i* scarcely a spot on lier' body which has not u hypodermic syringe •car. She doe* not want to be curea, i but her friend* have sent her. "There is one cause for drunkenness or opium-eating among women more common ifian many sujipose. I m**an disease and pain. The wonder to me is that more women who suffer greatly are not ruined by alcohol. It is a btosing to them that they never tried it aud found temporary relief, for, when the habit is fixed they find it impossible to shake it off. I hare in mind now a beautiful woman who was noted for al that ought to become a woman. Her husband was several year* ago a prominent tnau iu New York, but now Ik- ha* given up everything to wait on her. More than ten years ago she was given chloradmc by ber physician toreliere pain, aud the taste aud the effect were so grateful that she lias continued to use the drug until her life lias liecotne a harden to her. "Drinking is a frightfully prevateut vice among wealthy women, who are frequently 'not at home' to caller*. With these women the drinking habit is concealed from friends for years and even from persous in the household. I know society women who dnnk and who succeed in keeping the knowledge of the fact eveu from their husbands, but 1 can't conceive how they manage it. They hare the cunning of the evil one. Ttiev do not send for a physician to relieve them of their torture after a spree as f man does. They go off into a room alone and quietly wait until they feel better. The amount of liquor that some such worneu will driuk without getting drunk is amazing. 1 know a married woman who, when she craves liquor, will drink a large glass of clear wmaky without wmking. Theu ahe will lie down aud sleep off the effects. This practice would not tiave been discovered but for her increasing the doses gradually, until one night she got roaring drunk, tore the lace cj rutins, and banged the furniture around the room. Many women get drunk at night, as many men do, and wrake up sober in the middle of the forenoon. "Sometimes I have curious experiences. One night a Qureanger , from a family whose name you woukl recognize if I should mention it, called uie to the bedside of the mother of the (amity. The husband and the children were cry ing around the bed when I arrived. They believed the woman was dying , and they had been trying to arouse ber (or a last good-by. She was nearly dead, but from mulling but alcoholism. I said nothing to the family, but gave tite woman the proper remedies, and to this day the family almost worship me for raising the wife and mother from the brink of the grave, bhe does not reveal the truth, and of course I do •ot" .
