nent Upon Becoming Abandoned Wom
enA Noble Action.
Last Friday two line longing soung
ladles dres.ed very becomingly but not
gaudily rang the door hell of No. 310
Koutn Concho street which It a well
known house or lll-rame. and asked to
see the lady of tho house Sadie Itay.
They aemanueu a private interview
with her. and It being accorded they
made known their business. They stat-
ed they were not titters by blood but
were tbe step-daughter and adopted
daughter of a wealthy stockman who I.
now ab.cnt In the north disposing of a
shipment of cattle. They elated they
lived In the First ward but would not
tell their names or address. They had
not been treated right at home and
were tired or it ana wanted to begin in
this bouse the llfo of shame which had
always seemed .0 fascinating to
them and for which they had al
ways pineii auuougu claiming mac
they had never even taken the llrst
step In thla direction. If their father
came back one of tbem would be put
mmeuiaieiy in tne convent anu ne was
xnected to return in elulit dava. They
did not have much time in which to get
away irom nome.
Miss Ray Informed thorn that they
could not possibly enter her house un-
der these olrcum.ianeea. She would not
ncouraee them or hold out any Induce
ment to them and advl.ed tbem to go
borne and bear any kind of treatment In
preierence to entering upon a ine 01 .in
and misery. She would not encouraee
girl to become prostitute. and turned
mem away.
The young women left rather disap-
pointed but one of them returned the
next day and made a second application
itn tne tame 111 success.
A note making tbe same reque.t wna
sent by tho girl to Carrie Ander-
son at No. ITM Han Saba street and
met with a relu.nl becau.o of the
danger Involved of trouble with the
girl' family.
inese young women nave not yet
secured npartmenta In any of the bawdy
bouses of the city and It I. hoped they
will not. A keeper of a hou.e of illfanie
can not be to careful with such would-
be customer a. tbe.e. The misery en-
lauen upon ine ueginuer anu meir
families by such a step I. not fully
realized by them. Let them ask any
woman who ha. been a few year. In the
toil of thla sinful oareer and they will
shudder and fall back with affright at
the prospect of misery exposed. The
conscientious keeper of No. Illil not
alone deserve prai.e for her refusal to
these girls but she deserves the thanks
of all parents brothers and sister. In
tin. community ror ner nouie action in
tbe Interest of morality and society.
The Cruel Little Mouae.
Once upon a time there waa a great
lion and tbe fame of that Hon waa
abroad from one end of the land to tbe
other. He had a oomnanlon whom he
treated kindly but like a true friend
sometime reproved It ror it. laulta. Une
day tbe lion waa cauirht In a net. The
little mouse came along and Instead of
being like another good mouse and
easing Its benefactor It reviled and bit

poor little mouse now irienaiess lieu in
terror and did not atop until It reached
a village. There It waa trapped and be-
came cnt.-meat but the Hon roamed It.
