Y. Times. “Turn the brake when you pull up that trot- ter,” savagely shouted a weather-beaten driver to much younger man who was handling the ribbons over a Bleecker-street car horse, “or you'll cost Jake Sharp about a million dollars.” ‘The car was just turning into 9th avenue from 28d stfect, and an old man with a basket fall of fish had just escaped being trodden upon by the spacious feet of the trotter. The weather-beaten driver was the instructor of the bore a striking the reception portance of hig position, was far from feeling satistled with hig lot in life. Tne Teporter wes led to take this view of the vete. ran’s feelings through: borly chat with him by the open window. As the TS entered and dropped their fares in the box the young man zlanced wistfully at the nickels as they rattled inst the glass slide. The vete- ran observed the longing glances of the young man_ at the box, and Temarked, “No, ‘taint no use tryin’ *ere'racket. A lot of ‘em ‘ere dutiers got at itsome weeks ago, or dere “bouts. You never kin teil when dat *ere Jake Sharp is‘round. He's asharp un by fame as well as by natur’, and don’t ot fergit it.

I tell yer, young feller, yer want to keep yer eye peeled fer dat "ere Jake Sharp. He goes ’round disguised in atl netinalities. He's likely as not to come in some time dressed up like a old woman.” The young driver laughed, until the veteran pulled out his tobacco-box-like watch, and said, “Behind time four minutes.” The car was just entering Bleecker street, and three young ladies began to flourish their parasols as signals for the driver to stop his horse. The young man reached over the horse until he was able to strike the beast on the ears with a whip, and shouting, “Get ‘long, yer old crow-bate or I'll knock the nose off of: 8 he gave the horse sev- eral sharp whacks. The animal started for all he was worth, the three-young ladies were panic-stricken, and the veteran’s eyes seemed to flash fire. He selzed the reins from the young man and turned the brake so quickly that the car frame trembled as though stricken with the ague. Before the next cross street was reached the veteran had the agitated horse under con- trol. Then he turned in s mournful way to the yoane man, and said: “I say young feller, yer better co down to the Brizhton Beach track and ask Bill Engeman fer a job. Yer can never drive de trotters on de Bleecker street road. Some of dese trotters has got de heart disease, and dey can't stand no such excitement as yer would give ’em.” The young man pleaded that he had endeavored to increase the speed of the horse, owing to the fact that they were four minutes behind time. The veteran shook his head, and said that his old gray hairs would be brought in sorrow to the graye by the conduct of “young fellers” who wanted to be drivers and who were placed under his instruction. Coming down Crosby street, the veteran’s heart grew lighter ashe heard the strains of music from Harry Hill’s theater, and he gave the reins to the Y pe man again, with the somewhat doubtful precautionary remark: “Now, don’t ran overall the Italyuns in this ere street.” At Prince street a man of unsteady gait boarded the car and handed the driver a silver half-coltar with a hole in it, and waited for his change. The new driver first bit the coin and then discovered the hole. He handed back the coin and indignantly said: “Don’t try any of yer counterfeiting games on me; do you hear me?” The passenger staggered as he let zo the strap, and began to respond ina manner that alarmed all the other passengers. He threatened the young driver's life, and declared that he would sue the whole road for slander. At length the veteran came to the rescue, and said to the passenger: “ Don't get excited, Mister, this driver isa fresh young feller, and don’t know the ways of the road. yer 50 cents. We-h'aint got change to- night. Yer can pay whens yon come this way to-morrow. It’s allright, Take yer seat.” The passenger dropped into a seat, and taking a cigar from his pocket handed it to the veteran, who sald to the new driver. ‘You'll bankrupt dis ere road, young feller. That man’s a presi- dent ofa bank, and yer oughter know a gentle- man whe» yer see one.” At Fulton ferry the yeteran ssid to the new driver, ‘Take my advice and go to fish peddling. *“Dis ain’t in yer line. It takes a gentleman to be a driver on de Bleecker-street line.” Then'the young man tried to argue the matter with the starter, and was ordered away by a pelice officer. ‘The vet- eran started his horse, and shouted back to the young man. “I'll tell Jake-Sharp all about yer— yerno good.” Thus an: aspirant for honore on the front platform of a Bleecker-street car was crushed. } Women and Religion. From the Boston Courier, i The moral and religious degeneracy of the times is a feature so marked tliat even the most easual observer is unable to overlook it. The fragments of old forms and creeds mark every step of modern progress. until one sometimes is tempted to ask if the world is to be left wholly without formulated beliet of any sort. On the one hand are to be met negations, unbelief, ag- nosticism, and frequently on the other a con- straction of ancient creeds that is practically an abrogation and a denial. To propose a remedy for this epidemic of un- belief is beyond the wisdom of any man, and nothing short of time can effect a cure. It is not impossible, however, to discern some of the causes that have produced this state ot things. Perhaps most effective among them is the development or what we are accustomed to call “the woman question;” in other words, the turning of the attention and thoughts of women into new and broader channels. In modern civ- ilization the existence of a religion depends upon the faith and fidelity of women. Left to men the church would become either a system of moral ethics or an organization striving for tem- poral power through its ‘hold upon epiritual instincts. The religious element is essentially a teminine attribute, and religious systems as dis- tinguished from moral philosophers have been the outgrowth of the minds of women or of men whose character was modified by asceticism. In our day women have largely abandoned re- ligious for social ethics; not upon faith but upon knowledge has their attention been cen- tered, and the inevitable result has followed. A nation learns its faith by the fireside or not at all. It is one of the issues which women must fairly face, whether the benefits they can confer upon the world by a public or semi public career will compensate for the loss society sustains in the resulting neglect ofgheir office as religious In- structors to the race. There is, it seems to us, no more weighty consideration than this con- nected with the tangled problem of the condi- tion of the sex to-day. We believe fully in woman’s right to decide the question for ee self, but we believe attempts to evade it, to be as dishonest and cowardly as they will ultimate- ly be futiie. Of course we would not claim that the unset- tled state of religious thought to-day is wholly owing to the cause indicated. The broadening of modern thought in all directions, the won- derfal development of knowledge, the rapidity of nineteenth century life, all are important fac- tors in the case. We do believe, however, that no element entering into the problem is so im- portant as the position and intention of women; and while we repeat that we acknowledge their perfect right to decide for themselves where they will stand in this respect, we also insist that they owe it to men, ta-society and to them- selves not to evade or ignore so important an issue. te 14 history it is, ‘M& Oscar Wilde, ised te Riatod sitet Wegner ke Eames ‘[SeLE fs BUT ONE GENUINE TSU RIBER: WORK, A BIG TUMBLE IN WHITE PINE LUMBER. ‘We positively expect to open inthe carty Fall.
