THE SAINT PAUL . DAILY ; GLOBE: SUNDAY MORNING. AUGUST 7, 1887 .-TWENTY PAGES. 20 LIFE IN A BIG BREWERY. The Abnormal Appetites of Workmen Who Toil in the Great Vats and in the Troughs. . . Enormous Quantities of Beer Consumed and Liberal Lunches Served Every Few Hours Daily. Some Drink the Beer to Keep Cool and Others to Keep Warm— Some Curious Statistics. IXGS George Ar- nold in semi-hum- orous fashion: "Here, With my beer, Isit, While golden mo- ments flit." Between the an- itiquarian doctors land the prohibi- tionists the argu- ment is still ad- vanced that beer drinking in any form is detri- mental to health, and that if the brew- eries can be suppressed (and bad whisky made marketable through •\u25a0blind pigs"") the world will be all the better. In the face of this is published an account of an employe of a New York brewery, who. enjoying perfect health, drank for fifteen years 100 glasses of beer a day. The gluttony of such a life is not to be commented 'upon, nor a moral to be found in it to adorn a person's tale. Beer drinkers in St. Paul, who know something of its effects through ex- perience,- say that the feat of drinking 100 glasses of beer iii twenty-four hours is not impossible. Billy Hamm remarks. though, "Such a man is not wanted about a brewery," and A. Yoeig, Sr., commented: "A man who could do that i- not a man." _ visit to any one of the dozen large breweries of St Paul— Stahl- niann's. Yoerg's, Hanim's or Bau- holzer's—will bring about some in- teresting discoveries as to the manual work done in tlieir cellars and caves and the amount of individual beer- drinking within their walls. No 100- --glasses-a-dav drinker would be found, and if he "existed in this section the brewers insist that they would not em- plovbim. Charles Froebei, whose ac- quaintance with breweries, East and West, is extensive, says that only in the Fast does this practice of heavy drinking on the part of brewery em- ployes exist. In the Western localities it is discontinued, though the men are allowed reasonable amounts of the bev- erage gratis. The character of the work performed in breweries is believed to necessitate extensive beer-drinking. Take, for in- WASHING KEGS. stance, the thorough cleansing that the kegs and huge vats must receive. Great tanks of water, surrounded by "wash- ermen tossing kegs about as if they were balls. The contact with the water and the coldness of the" interior of the brewery chills the blood of the men to the marrow. They drink beer there to keep warm. Strange, is it not, that in cellars whose temperature is kept as low as 302 above, half-clad men. stream- ing with perspiration' drink beer to keep warm. In the malt kiln, though; these August days, the heat is frightful. It is a furnace without visible tire, and maintaining a temperature of over 100 - . In there, every two or three hours, the men shovel the malt over, for the same reason that a farmer turns his hay in the meadow. In there the word per- spire is never used. It is always sweat. The men working in this firey oven drink beer to keep cool, and with great success, paradoxical as ibis may seem with previous statements. The yard men of the breweries are not permitted to drink beer unstintedly as those who work inside. Their fresh air work is not supposed to demand so much liquid encouragement. The largest breweries FREE BAR. keep bars at which their men drink free, and favored customers also. In many instances this bar is free to the employes alone, and to others a saloon. Investigation in St. Paul reveals some very fair instances of heavy beer-drink- ing! A ease was found in Heinricfa Hiltner, who claims an average of thirty glasses of beer per day. A keg is sup- posed to contain 120 glasses. In a week Heiuricb drank, therefore, about a keg and a half. This is an average reached by the employes of Hamm's brewery, who drink from thirty to forty glasses" a day. These are not wine glasses either. Assuming that twenty men do this daily at that establishment, it disposes of from 600 to 800 glasses i.i twenty-four hours, or in six days a round 4,000. Bart Miller, who has worked several years in malt kilns, claims to have drank twenty-live glasses of beer daily, but never more. He is a picture of "health, round and ruddy, but couldn't run 600 feet without dropping dead. "It makes me short- winded."* he comments. At Yoorg's the men get about fifteen glasses daily, and all look hale and hearty. None of the men arc exceptionally fat. the severe sweating they are con- stantly subjected to draining the beer out of them before much of it is ab- sorbed into the blood. Henry Vosberg, a West shier, thinks that he is the champion among the beer-drinkers there, with a record of thirty glasses a day. He weighs in the neighborhood of 210 pounds and cannot stoop over with ease. Indeed, it would be dangerous to do so. These fat beer-drinkers are slippery as eeis. else they could never worm into and out of the big vats to cleanse them as they do. The flesh gives un- der pressure, large wrinkles and depressions form on the skin, and 10, the fat man has rivalled t h c small boy's feat of a ling through a knot- hole. As a rule, the larger a brewery it the more beer its employes get to drink. Just how much they get, except in the few places here they give cheeks lot all they drink, is bard to ascertain. In breweries the size of Stahlmann's, Drewrv's or Bruggeman's— or in Minne- apolis/those of Orth'and N'oerenberg's —the average of a man per day runs from twenty to thirty-live glasses. The beer thus consumed foots up in a month, ' for the brewery, from ten to sixty bar- rels. The continuous cold in one por- tion of the brewery, and the continuous heat in another part. seem to make this < amount of drink absolutely necessary tor the men. A few instances of this: Edward Daulhy, a brewery employe for two years oast; worked at teaming previous to this. Never drank over three glasses a : day then, now drinks twenty-five to thirty every day: weighs 195, and is strong. His comrade in arms. John Shaller, drinks thirty glass- es a day while at work: drinks nothing after working hours has no taste for it except when laboring under the ex- tremes of heat or cold. Henry Hosted j drinks twenty glasses of beer a day. and has done so since a boy: has worked in a brewery all his life: strong and healthy. The men have ferocious appe- tite- under this kind of work, and the beer seems to increase their desire for food. In many of the breweries of the smaller order, aside from their three meals a day. only two lunches are served, one about '/in the morning and another at 3in the afternoon. In other breweries, where the work is great, as many as four or five lunches are served. These consist ordinarily of the German diet—potato salads, rye bread, cheese, sausages and the like. The old hand at the business finds no difficulty in con- suming, besides his thirty glasses of beer, from four to five pounds of food, and he only feels comfortable then. The life is abnormal, and not the best by any means, hot the men leading it have a singular lack of pale cheeks, dys- peptic stomachs and weak hint's. Their amount of gray matter is not excessive, it is true. nor could it be under such discipline; but none of them die young nor for lack of animal matter. I In closing the pertinent question is sug- gested: "And if they drink beer what are they drinking?" These statistical surmises will answer that. In consum- ing seventy-five barrels of Minnesota ! beer they would absorb also 200 odd i bushels 'of malt and 85 pounds of hops, 1 a proportion frequently used. Or, if they were very heavy consumers of the ' beverage, in GUOodd barrels they would find 1.700 bushels of malt. i.-too pounds of hops. 1,100 pounds of cerealia, 10.000 j pounds of rice and 600 pounds of starch. ; That ought to make a man swell. A i little Irish moss i. sight be added to this to clear the lager before sale, but . good beer does not usually need that. One more array of figures for the end. If the beer "drinking portion of St Paul absorbs about 1. .00 kegs of beer to-day- it is highly probable that it has got lie- side that in the bargain 3,000 bushels of malt. 1,800 pounds of hops and 14,400 pounds of rice. All of which goes to prove that beer is beer, and you don't always know what you are getting. : ccc* A CHILIAN* "SHE." IsMora De Consi-io, the Monte C.isto ofSouth America. San Francisco Examiner. A flashily dressed young man of me- dium height with a large diamond in his shirt bosom, stepped off the barken- tine Aldavia a few days ago when it arrived from chili. There was some- thing so sharp and shrewd in his appear- ance "that the attention of an Examiner i representative was attracted to him. ••That is Mr. Jenkins, the grand sec- retary to the richest woman in South America— Isidore de Consino commonly known as the Monte Cristo of South America,** said an officer of the j vessel. "bo you would like to know something , of the madame,". observed Mr. Jenkins, stroking his mustache on being intro- j duced. .. "Well, there is lots to tell you. 1 could talk about her possessions and her eccentricities for a week and the subject would not be half exhausted. It is a rather curious thing that she was not discovered long since. She is known ; all along the South American coast and is almost a queen over the people. In j fact, there is no one who disputes her in any thing she says or does, and she revels in the luxuries that her enormous wealth can surround her with. About fiftyyears have passed since she was born, and, though few women have dis- | sipated as she has. she is well preserved, and goes out and has her nice little time the same as ever. ••No. she is not fair. Her features are coarse, like a servant .gill's, but she has had many lovers. ••She has a partiality for the French, anil a few years ago. when a gentleman . from Prance happened around, she in- variably invited him and fell in love with him. In late years her sons have been watching her and using their ef- forts to keep her from scandal, which she falls into very easily. "The society people of the city re- peat.'div avow that they will never visit ; her again, but her receptions are so elegant and rich that they never fail to attend when the) receive an invitation. "Isitlora is a native of Chili and a widow of the late Luis de Consino, a gentleman of French origin. She claims to have Castilian blood in her veins. ami most probably she has. She is the] owner of about four-fifths of tin- coal mines of Lota, a small seaport in the southern part of Chili, the inhabitants of which are entirely dependent for their livelihood upon the mines, and be- sides this she lias the controlling inter- est in the Cmupania Esplotadora de Car- bon de Lota i Coronet. These mines supply all vessels of the Pacific Steam Navigation compan. with coal. and also all steamers pi ing on the Southwest coast "At Lota she has removed what was a handsome building and is rebuilding a ! palace to eclipse anything in South America. Its cost will be more than §2,000,000. The palace will be situated in the most beautiful park country, a veritable Eden, where it will be sur- . rounded by the most magnificent trees j and plants* that money can procure. In I j Santiago, the capital of Chili, she has a residence that for grandeur has few* : ) equals. It is situated ii' a garden of five acres teeming with tropical plants and birds. -Her stables contain fifty or more thoroughbred English racers. The madame was the first patroness of horse- racing in Chili. Her turnouts are equal to those of any princess. "Isidore care- little for money. Her income is enormous, but she manages to spend about as much. In 1885 her brother died. In her bereavement she made donations to hospitals, churches, convents, etc, to the amount of .000,000, She was left §8,000,000 by him. Included in her estate was a handsome residence on one of the principal streets of Santi- ago. The dwelling was built and owned for a time l>\ a former Califoruian, Don , I Enrique Meiggs" who had all the mate- i rial and workmen brought from the ; States. - ••She has three daughters. The. eld- est is twenty-one and the youngest is ; twelve years of age. The second is sev- enteen," and the prettiest, Isidora has ; much trouble with them. Recently a , young lieutenant fell in love with the . i seventeen-year-old. and her mother saw I lit to remove her to a convent. The - others have since been placed where the * ; beguilements of man cannot reach - them."' _ -«__> ' Snakes in Arkansas. i An Tpte'resting scene was witnessed i recently in the round-house of the Frisco :' ! railway at Chester, Ark. Within the l ! round-bouse are ash-pits used in clean- > ! ing ashes from engines. In one of : these pits was discovered a large snake . of the moccasin species, measuring I three feet ten inches in length, and > about six inches in circumference, and i ! was lying apparently asleep. When i ! aroused from its strange bed it showed 5 | light, and was speedily killed. It . I proved to be a female snake, and upon - closer examination found it bore young. . Proceeding to cut the snake open s thirty young ones were taken out, s varying from six to ten inches in c length. They wen- full of life, and c darted at the sticks held toward them s and crawled hither and thither in their B endeavor to get away. It was at last t decided to kill them. Alter a few had 2* been killed it seemed the rest knew :- what was going on, for they seemed to y double their exertions in trying to es- b cape by crawling up the walls of- the t pit, and some by trying to crawl under s the cinders. *!__ above was witnessed :. by a dozen people or so. including some i, of our most prominent citizens. . ' A LONE MAIDEN. * Crazed by Love and Confined in a ||f***pS Narrow Cell. The Family of Her Lover Object to an Alliance. A sad-faced man, with a full beard, was whitewashing the walls of a new house in Liberty street, Bergoline ave- nue, Union Hill. N. J., yesterday after- noon, when a reporter poshed in the half-open door and asked if Otto Biegler lived there. The man looked up from his labor and said "yes," and at the same moment his wife, a short, stout woman with a florid XNIIArPV ADELINE. face, came out of a room off the hall and asked what was wanted. Both spoke in a dialect of German that is not fre- quent, and an interpreter was neces- sary. . \u0084 , While the reporter was gone to fetch one. the husband and wife held a con- sultation, and when the Journal man returned the object of his visit was fully understood, and without f urtherexplan- ation be was led into the interior of the dwelling. The first door pushed open by Biegler revealed a small, narrow room with a bed, and from that the party passed into a second similarly furnished. Then a sight presented itself such is rarely seen by civilized people- Before the reporter and his com- panions had time to observe the awful change in the disposition of the apart- ADELINE CAGE. ments. the poor old father, with tears in his eves, pointed to the end of the room. There was a wooden gate, new, as if just come from the makers, handy, and fashioned with all the art and care pos- sible in such a fixture. It was a curious sight in such a place, but horrible when one approaches it. Behind it on the ground was the nude and emaciated figure of a young woman, apparently in- sensible to all about. She sat upon a heap of sawdust, rags scattered' till around, her hair hanging over her head and shoulders, a miser- able, abject, forlorn creature, bereft of reason and dead to all but misery and seclusion. The head of the mother's bed, for that unfortunate girl was the daughter of the house, was close against the wall in which the gate was set. and from the gate to the side of the bed was a rope meant to give Mrs. Ziegler control of the cell at all hours of the day and night. The woman's apron covered her face as she stood beside her husband while the strangers were examining the piti- ful -.-cue. The pen or cell in which she was con- fined was an extension or sort of back room on the ground Boor, and there seated on the sawdust Adeline reclined, her back against the rear wall, appar- ently unconscious of what was passing. Her long hair half veiled her face and fell trembling over her shoulders, and her naked limbs were crossed at the feet. The wretched father's tears fell fast and the mother sobbed aloud. Through the bails and in the bedrooms younger children played, loud and joyful in the vigor .of fresh, untrammelled life. ••1 have done the best 1 could," said Otto, when the interpreter arrived. "My darling child has been like this only two months, and 1 have been hoping every day to see her recover, She has gone on' from bad to worse, and 1 was com- pelled to make the inclosure you saw to keep her. "1 applied to the authorities here to get her into an asylum, but they would not take her because 1 was not a year in the country. 1 think the causeof my child's trouble was a love affair in the old country. "The young man was id' a good family and his patents would not listen to the proposition of an alliance with a poor man's child. 1 tried to reason with my girl, but it was no use. She grew mel- ancholy, and we had to leave the coun- try. ••she was a beautiful gill, as lovely as the sunshine on a lake, and gentle and kindly, but one day after we came here' about two months ago, she became suddenly violent and 1 bad to tie her to a -take m the garden while the mother did the housework. "Then she tore her clothes and went on from bad to worse until 1 tried to get her into an asylum. They would not take her and! was obliged to do the best I could under the circumstances with a breaking heart. ""she will keep nothing on her. We try to cover her, but the moment she feels clothes about her she tears them off. It is a most distressing case, and we hope that something will be done to help us. B^ "We give her food, and often she will throw it back at us and mock and de- ride us as if we were hateful in her sight. HHB ••You can imagine how we go to sleep at night with the poor creature almost I beside us. unable to understand a thing ! but her own wretchedness." ; The bouse in which the Bieglers live I is in a densely populated neighborhood, j but the people, being all hard-working ! and much occupied, knew nothing of j the case of the love-lorn Adeline.

She noticed the young girl lied to a ' stake in the sun and notified Recorder I Schlieeher that a ease of gross cruelty ' was in existence in Liberty street. The recorder caused an examination to be made, and the unhappy facts in j the case were brought to light as they ! are now presented in the Journal. j A gentleman, who declined to give his I name, but who is well known on Union hill, and is called the "Baron"" by his associates, was of the opinion that Ade- line Biegler was of unsound mind long before she came to America.

LIFE IN A BIG BREWERY.The Abnormal Appetites of Workmen

Who Toil in the Great Vats andin the Troughs.

. .Enormous Quantities of Beer Consumed

and LiberalLunches Served EveryFew Hours Daily.

Some Drink the Beer to Keep Cool andOthers to Keep Warm— Some

Curious Statistics.

IXGS George Ar-nold in semi-hum-orous fashion:

"Here,With my beer,Isit,

While golden mo-ments flit."

Between the an-itiquarian doctorsland the prohibi-

tionists the argu-

ment is still ad-vanced that beerdrinking in anyform is detri-

mental to health, and that if the brew-

eries can be suppressed (and bad whiskymade marketable through •\u25a0blind pigs"")the world willbe all the better. In theface of this is published an account ofan employe of a New York brewery,

who. enjoying perfect health, drank forfifteen years 100 glasses of beer a day.The gluttony of such a life is not to becommented 'upon, nor a moral to befound in it to adorn a person's tale.Beer drinkers in St. Paul, who knowsomething of its effects through ex-perience,- say that the feat ofdrinking100 glasses of beer iii twenty-four hoursis not impossible. BillyHamm remarks.though, "Such a man is not wantedabout a brewery," and A. Yoeig, Sr.,commented: "A man who could dothat i- not a man."_ visit to any one of the dozenlarge breweries of St Paul— Stahl-niann's. Yoerg's, Hanim's or Bau-holzer's—will bring about some in-teresting discoveries as to the manualwork done in tlieir cellars and cavesand the amount of individual beer-drinking within their walls. No 100---glasses-a-dav drinker would be found,

and if he "existed in this section thebrewers insist that they would not em-plovbim. Charles Froebei, whose ac-quaintance with breweries, East andWest, is extensive, says that only inthe Fast does this practice of heavydrinking on the part of brewery em-ployes exist. In the Western localitiesit is discontinued, though the men areallowed reasonable amounts of the bev-erage gratis.

The character of the work performedin breweries is believed to necessitateextensive beer-drinking. Take, for in-

WASHING KEGS.stance, the thorough cleansing that thekegs and huge vats must receive. Greattanks of water, surrounded by "wash-ermen tossing kegs about as if theywere balls. The contact with the waterand the coldness of the" interior of thebrewery chills the blood of the men tothe marrow. They drink beer there tokeep warm. Strange, is it not, that incellars whose temperature is kept aslow as 302 above, half-clad men. stream-ing with perspiration' drinkbeer tokeepwarm. In the malt kiln, though; theseAugust days, the heat is frightful. Itis a furnace without visible tire, andmaintaining a temperature of over 100 - .In there, every two or three hours, themen shovel the malt over, for the samereason that a farmer turns his hay inthe meadow. In there the word per-spire is never used. It is always sweat.The men working in this firey ovendrink beer to keep cool, and with greatsuccess, paradoxical as ibis may seemwith previous statements. The yardmen of the breweries are not permittedto drink beer unstintedly as those whowork inside. Their fresh air work isnot supposed to demand so much liquidencouragement. The largest breweries

FREE BAR.

keep bars at which their men drinkfree, and favored customers also. Inmany instances this bar is free to theemployes alone, and to others a saloon.Investigation in St. Paul reveals somevery fair instances of heavy beer-drink-ing! A ease was found in HeinricfaHiltner, who claims an average of thirtyglasses of beer per day. A keg is sup-posed to contain 120 glasses. In a weekHeiuricb drank, therefore, about a keg

and a half. This is an averagereached by the employes of Hamm'sbrewery, who drink from thirty to fortyglasses" a day. These are not wineglasses either. Assuming that twentymen do this daily at that establishment,it disposes offrom 600 to 800 glasses i.itwenty-four hours, or in six days around 4,000. Bart Miller, who hasworked several years in malt kilns,claims to have drank twenty-live glasses

of beer daily, but never more. He is apicture of "health, round and ruddy,but couldn't run 600 feet withoutdropping dead. "It makes me short-winded."* he comments. At Yoorg's themen get about fifteen glasses daily,and all look hale and hearty.None of the men arc exceptionallyfat. the severe sweating they are con-stantly subjected to draining the beerout of them before much of it is ab-sorbed into the blood. Henry Vosberg,a West shier, thinks that he is thechampion among the beer-drinkersthere, with a record of thirty glasses aday. He weighs in the neighborhood of210 pounds and cannot stoop over withease. Indeed, it would be dangerous todo so. These fat beer-drinkers are

slippery as eeis.

else they couldnever worm intoand out of thebig vats tocleanse them asthey do. Theflesh gives un-der pressure,large wrinklesand depressionsform on theskin, and 10, thefat man hasrivalled t h csmall boy's featof a lingthrough a knot-

hole. As a rule, the larger a breweryit the more beer its employes get todrink. Just how much they get, exceptin the few places here they give cheekslot all they drink, is bard to ascertain.In breweries the size of Stahlmann's,

Drewrv's or Bruggeman's— or in Minne-apolis/those of Orth'and N'oerenberg's—the average of a man per day runsfrom twenty to thirty-live glasses. Thebeer thus consumed foots up in a month, 'for the brewery, from ten to sixty bar-rels. The continuous cold in one por-tion of the brewery, and the continuousheat in another part. seem to make this <amount of drink absolutely necessarytor the men. A few instances of this:Edward Daulhy, a brewery employefor two years oast; worked at teamingprevious to this. Never drank overthree glasses a : day then, now drinkstwenty-five to thirty every day: weighs195, and is strong. His comrade inarms. John Shaller, drinks thirty glass-es a day while at work: drinks nothingafter working hours has no taste for itexcept when laboring under the ex-tremes ofheat or cold. Henry Hosted jdrinks twenty glasses of beer a day. andhas done so since a boy: has worked ina brewery all his life: strong andhealthy. The men have ferocious appe-tite- under this kind of work, and thebeer seems to increase their desire forfood. In many of the breweries ofthesmaller order, aside from their threemeals a day. only two lunches areserved, one about '/in the morning andanother at 3in the afternoon. In otherbreweries, where the work is great, asmany as four or five lunches are served.These consist ordinarily of the Germandiet—potato salads, rye bread, cheese,sausages and the like. The old hand atthe business finds no difficulty in con-suming, besides his thirty glasses ofbeer, from four to five pounds of food,and he only feels comfortable then.The life is abnormal, and not the bestby any means, hot the men leading ithave a singular lack of pale cheeks, dys-peptic stomachs and weak hint's. Theiramount of gray matter is not excessive,it is true. nor could it beunder such discipline; but none of themdie young nor for lack of animal matter.

I Inclosing the pertinent question is sug-gested: "And if they drink beer whatare they drinking?" These statisticalsurmises will answer that. In consum-ing seventy-five barrels of Minnesota

! beer they would absorb also 200 oddi bushels 'of malt and 85 pounds ofhops,1 a proportion frequently used. Or, ifthey were very heavy consumers of the

' beverage, in GUOodd barrels they wouldfind 1.700 bushels of malt. i.-too poundsof hops. 1,100 pounds of cerealia, 10.000 jpounds of rice and 600 pounds of starch. ;

That ought to make a man swell. A i

little Irish moss i.sight be added to thisto clear the lager before sale, but . goodbeer does not usually need that. Onemore array of figures for the end. Ifthe beer "drinking portion of St Paulabsorbs about 1. .00 kegs of beer to-day-it is highly probable that it has got lie-side that in the bargain 3,000 bushels ofmalt. 1,800 pounds of hops and 14,400pounds of rice. All of which goes toprove that beer is beer, and you don'talways know what you are getting.

A CHILIAN* "SHE."

IsMora De Consi-io, the Monte

C.isto ofSouth America.San Francisco Examiner.

A flashily dressed young man of me-dium height with a large diamond inhis shirt bosom, stepped off the barken-tine Aldavia a few days ago when itarrived from chili. There was some-thing so sharp and shrewd in his appear-ance "that the attention of an Examiner

i representative was attracted to him.••That is Mr. Jenkins, the grand sec-

retary to the richest woman in SouthAmerica— Isidore de Consino —commonly known as the Monte Cristoof South America,** said an officer ofthe jvessel.

"bo you would like toknow something ,

of the madame,". observed Mr. Jenkins,stroking his mustache on being intro- jduced. .. "Well, there is lots to tell you.1 could talk about her possessions andher eccentricities for a week and thesubject would not be half exhausted. Itis a rather curious thing that she wasnot discovered long since. She is known ;

A sad-faced man, with a full beard,was whitewashing the walls of a newhouse in Liberty street, Bergoline ave-nue, Union Hill. N. J., yesterday after-noon, when a reporter poshed in thehalf-open door and asked ifOtto Bieglerlived there. The man looked up fromhis labor and said "yes," and atthe same moment his wife, ashort, stout woman with a florid

While the reporter was gone to fetchone. the husband and wife held a con-sultation, and when the Journal manreturned the object of his visitwas fullyunderstood, and without furtherexplan-ation be was led into the interior of thedwelling.

The first door pushed open by Bieglerrevealed a small, narrow room with abed, and from that the party passedinto a second similarly furnished. Thena sight presented itself such is rarelyseen by civilized people-

ments. the poor old father, with tears inhis eves, pointed to the end of the room.

There was a wooden gate, new, as ifjust come from the makers, handy, andfashioned with all the art and care pos-sible in such a fixture. Itwas a curioussight in such a place, but horrible whenone approaches it. Behind it on theground was the nude and emaciatedfigure of a young woman, apparently in-sensible to all about.

She sat upon a heap of sawdust, ragsscattered' till around, her hair hangingover her head and shoulders, a miser-able, abject, forlorn creature, bereft ofreason and dead to all but misery andseclusion.

The head of the mother's bed, forthat unfortunate girl was the daughterof the house, was close against the wallin which the gate was set. and from thegate to the side of the bed was a ropemeant to give Mrs. Ziegler control ofthe cell at all hours ofthe day and night.

The woman's apron covered her faceas she stood beside her husband whilethe strangers were examining the piti-ful -.-cue.

The pen or cell in which she was con-fined was an extension or sort of backroom on the ground Boor, and thereseated on the sawdust Adeline reclined,her back against the rear wall, appar-ently unconscious of what was passing.Her long hair half veiled her face andfell trembling over her shoulders,and her naked limbs were crossed atthe feet.

The wretched father's tears fell fastand the mother sobbed aloud. Through

the bails and in the bedrooms youngerchildren played, loud and joyfulin thevigor.of fresh, untrammelled life.

••1 have done the best 1 could," saidOtto, when the interpreter arrived. "Mydarling child has been like this only twomonths, and 1 have been hoping everyday to see her recover, She has goneon'from bad to worse, and 1 was com-pelled to make the inclosure you saw tokeep her.

"1 applied to the authorities here toget her into an asylum, but they wouldnot take her because 1 was not a year inthe country. 1 think the causeof mychild's trouble was a love affair in theold country.

"The young man was id' a good familyand his patents would not listen to theproposition of an alliance with a poorman's child. 1 tried to reason with mygirl, but it was no use. She grew mel-ancholy, and we had to leave the coun-try.

••she was a beautiful gill, as lovelyas the sunshine on a lake, and gentleand kindly, but one day after we camehere' about two months ago, she becamesuddenly violent and 1 bad to tie her toa -take m the garden while the motherdid the housework.

"Then she tore her clothes and wenton from bad to worse until 1 tried to gether into an asylum. They would nottake her and! was obliged to do thebest Icould under the circumstanceswith a breaking heart.

""she willkeep nothing on her. Wetry to cover her, but the moment shefeels clothes about her she tears themoff. It is a most distressing case, andwe hope that something will be done tohelp us. B^

"We give her food, and often she willthrow it back at us and mock and de-ride us as if we were hateful in hersight. HHB
