He had gonethrough the Upper Hills of Afghanistan; hehad slept in the vaults of the high-binders underSan Francisco, and knew three of the eightsignals of the society; he could ask for foodand lodging intellegibly in nineteen languagesand dialects, including Basque and· f Finnish.But of the ingredients that make up a cocktailI knew far more than he did, and he attachedhimself to me at once. Since then I have hitupon him and lost track of him a dozen times.When I saw him last I said: '" Carl, where have you been? "'! Equador last.""Anything new? " Hedin shook his head .." Nature has only one mold for you littlepeople. There is nothing odd .under the' sun.I have been nine times around the world with.· my eyes open, and never saw anything worthmentioning."I' No women?"He shut his eyes. �'Bengale�e, Esquirnaux,· Provencal - white, yellow, red - indifferent,, bad, worse."" Has nothing ever interested you ?'"II' Much; but never surprised me."" Then if you were asked to name something· that had made your _ travels worth while, youwould keep silence? "He broke' off a bit of wafer and touched his·lips with it thoughtfully. _ "No," he muttered,,after a while, t" I should not. I should sayM iss Maher." After I had insisted, he wenton:" Miss Maher I met here in Chicago. Neitherof us moved in good society; I was a tramp· and she was a washerwoman, whenever shecould get anything to wash. The trouble withMiss Maher was that neither her father nor her,grandfather could read. Had they been able to read, they might have found those valuablebits of advice in the Bible and Shakespeareabout looking upon the wine when it is red,and putting an enemy in your mouth to stealaway your brains. Being Irish peasants, theyhad not violated the first advice at all, but onthe other hand they had not profited by the_ second. The result to Miss Maher was dis­astrous."I saw her first just outside a Canal street sa-loon, whose proprietor she was cursing flu­.ently. I believe he had just had her ejected."I su ppose she was nearly forty at the time, but· she, looked much older, of course. As it wascold, and I noticed in Miss Maher a certaininability to stand up, I managed to ingratiatemyself with her, and proposed that: I take her· home. She consented with surprising readi­ness and profanity, and I accompanied her toher place of residence-s-in a Canal 'street terie--rnent. 'I meant to take my leave when wegot there, but as Miss Maher's inability ex­tended, -to climbing stairs- unsupported, I as­sisted her up two flights." When we went inside I was surprised to seean old woman there. Hitherto I had supposed_ Miss Maher old, but at the sight of that womanI knew my.mistake. She sat in a wooden arm­chair with a ragged cushion on it, in the cor­ner furtherest from the window, and when wecame in she was mumbling to herself and pick-· ing flecks of plastering from the nail of herforefinger. Her arms were on her lap in frontof her, and her feet on a low wooden footstool.She was so small, and skinny, and ugly, she re-'minded me of a, Zulu witch-doctress I saw, once, except for one thing-the witch-doctresshad beady, little sparkling eyes, and this wo­man, when she turned her face up, showed thatshe was blind. She made no sign of interest,but went on mumbling to herself, and picking408 THE' UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYthe flakes of plastering from the nail of herforefinger. I saw that the wall beside her wasall furrowed with the marks where she hadplowed it up with that nail..• Miss Maher h�d been quiet as we camehome-I think the cold was too much for her.When she had lapsed into a chair, however,suddenly the remembrance of her wrongs cameupon her, and she began to sweas-again, in amethodical manner, accompanied by the kick­ing of her heels 'against the floor. I discreetly. retired, but not before I had seen the old wo­man leave off mumbling and picking at hernails, and shrink into herself still further. Itwas an odd sight. In all my journeyings Ithink I have never seen anything smaller, skin­nier, and more terrified than that old womanlooked."N aturally I did not expect to-meet Miss Ma­her again. But chance is an odd thing. Threedays later I was in the same neighborhood, andI saw a crowd around the door of Miss Maher'stenement. A carriage was backed up there.At first I suspected that some good person wasdoing the slums-offering to the poor, fornothing, the example of a well spent life. Isaw in a moment, however, that the carriagewas a hired cab. Now nobody who has to hirea cab ever goes slumming, so I withdrew mysupposition and waited for light. It came. Two.men, carrying something between them, andaccompanied by a Sister of Charity in a whitehood, sidled down the narrow stairs, and de­posited their burden in the carriage. I wasamazed to see that the burden was no otherthan the old woman who had shivered whenMiss Maher came home drunk. A volubleIrish lady who was connected with the neigh­borhood, gave me the explanation." 'Tis Kit Maher's mother," she said, pitying­ly. "Shure Kit comes home dhrunk so o-f-ftenthey're taken' the poor woman away for fearshe'll come to harrum. 'Tis little they know.Kit wud niver hurrut her. 'Tis Kit has thegood hear-it." They were taking her to theSisters of St. Mary, the Irish lady informed me.An' what was Kit doin'? Sure Kit was lyin'dhrunk upstairs.,. I went away ten thousand miles, and when Icame back it was a year later, and I was nolonger a tramp" One /night I came into my hotel late, and almost fell over a scrubbingbrush in the lobby. The woman who was at­tached to it looked up. and I recognized MissMaher-e-sober, I asked her if her name wasMaher, and she responded that it was. Then,for I was curious, I recalled myself to her, andasked her if her mother was still with the Sis­ters of St. Mary. No, Miss Maher said. shehad come back. Had they brought her back?I asked.' 'No, it appeared she had run away.Why had she ru�' away? Because the Sistersrefused to let her scratch the plastering, withthe nail of her forefinger. When she per­sisted, they had bound her hands with rags.So one day she had slipped into the streets andreturned to her tenement. But, I asked, didnot the Sisters appear to reclaim her? Theytried, responded Miss Maher. That was allshe vouchsafed me; she turned once more toher scrubbing." It was a year later again when I went with afriend of mine who does good in an amateurway, to a place on the West Side, where theydo good professionally. This place is called asettlement, I believe. I found it to be in theimmediate vicinity of Miss Maher's tenement,and the fancy seized me to ask the head of thesettlement if she had ever heard of Miss Maher.She said, in a surprised way, that she had, andasked, it she was not intruding, what I knew ofMiss Maher? I told her (in an expurgatedway), and inquired how Miss Maher stood atpresent. The head then finished the story forme."It was an odd thing," she said. "The Maherwoman was one of the most notorious charac­ters in the district. There was no harm in her;but she would drink, and when she drank sheswore horribly. She actually seemed fond of 'her mother; took care of 'her much more de­cently than you would expect. But her motherused to be terrified when Catherine came homein one of her spells, and they kept getting morefrequent, and finally we thought it would bebest to take the old lady 'away somewhere.But, as you say, she ran away from there-e-ofcourse not for the reason you say. It was be­cause she wasn't used to a regular life. It istrue the Sisters did bind her hands, but that hadnothing to do with it. We went to get herback; but the daughter declined to give her up,and we couldn't take her, of course, without_ • _ • , __ """ (lL, � '" :.� • __ \ ... _ R'" .. _ l" • .. •• :� ..... : �,... .. _''__''�7'-'':'" ... , .;.. _ .. �.. .,\ ....� .._. � ._. . �_<_ .... -_ .. >. .... �• 'r I _.

Itwas' an extraordinary case; I never knew an­other like it. It even puzzled our trainednurse. She confessed. to me that she wouldhave thought it impossible. For a long timewe thought it couldn't last, but it seemed wewere mistaken. The woman took to scrubbingand we got her odd jobs at washing. She used, to come around here every morning too, to geta cup of hot coffee. She was frightfully hag­gard for a while, but gradually she began tolook better. I used to go over occasionally tosee her mother, and the old woman was reallysurprisingly contented. I tried to convinceher that she would be better off with the Sisters,but she shivered so that I stopped. She satthere all day long, picking away at the .plaster­ing, till-""Till what?" said 1."She died, finally. She was very old-c-ninetyI should think. Her daughter had saved somemoney to bury her with, and she went out tosee an undertaker. Then-""Well, then?" I wondered."I think wh en she felt the strain was gone,her old appetite ca,me back on her suddenly,and she couldn't resist it. She had the moneyill her hand, and so-she spent it.""Yes?" said 1."She became very much intoxicated, I be­lieve. Very much intoxicated. She was notfit at all to take care of herself. She startedhome, and as she was crossing the street therewas an accident. A truck ran her down. For­tunate ly she was killed instantly.""My story has a sad ending," said 1."I don't know," said the head, "whether Ishould say that. We buried them together. Ithink, after all, that was what they would havewished."On last Monday morning Professor GeorgeAdam Smith addressed the Junior CollegeChapel. He took as the subject of his dis­course "The Pardon of Sin." Professor Smithshowed how the subject of sin and the pardonof it, is the foundation principle of the Chris­tian religion. Only a Tramp."So you are going to leave, are you Thomas?"My mother was talking, and the person ad­dressed was a bright looking young negro.Tom's occupation was that ofa butter and eggmerchant. "Yes 'm, you see its dis way. Mahmud der 's sick down deah in Pittsburg, an' shewants me to come home. So I'se gwine, I'spects about-a-Monday." I was standing near,sprinkling the lawn. "How are you going?" Iasked. "I doan know. Guess I'll bum my wayon a freight.""Well, be careful, Tom," I said, "and don'tget hurt.""I wouldn't that-a-way, only mah mudder'sso sick," he replied, half regretfully. "Good­bye," said 1. "Take good care of yourself.""Thank you, suh, ah will," and with that heclosed the gate and was gone.I intended to go to New York shortly, andwas busy making my' preparations. Partly foradventure and partly to save money, I decidedto go through on a cattle train,. and had mademy arrangements to leave on the followingMonday. rAt 3 o'clock on Monday', the long trainloaded with horses and cattle passed out of theUnion Stock Yards, and we were 'off. I wasseated in the cupola of the caboose when theconductor came in."Say, George," he yelled to his brakeman ashe went to his locker.t'There are half a hundred'hoboes' on to-day." Then turning to me headded: "We have to be pretty strict about fir­ing them off. The road has inspectors to watchfor them at. Hobart, and if arty are found on thetrain, we get a reprimand!'He drew a pistol out of his locker, examinedr it carefully, and put it in his hip pocket. Ilooked at him in surprise."I suppose it is loaded with blanks?" I said."Blanks!" the conductor echoed, "Not much."He held up a cartridge for me to look at. "Imust say, though," he added "that I nevershoot at a man unless he shows fight."The train rolled on down througH GrandCrossing, Hammond and East Chicago, untilat last we drew near to a little town a few mileswest of Hobart and stopped. It was just duskand bid fair to be a beautiful night. The tree­toads were chirruping merrily in the woods onone side of the track and on the other lay farm'-I grasped the railing, the train gave a sud­den start, Tom's form faded. out of my sightand "passed into my dreams forever."'·BRUNO,NIAN."410 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYhouses quiet and restful in the gathering shade.,I got out of the caboose and looked around, Isaw nothing but a long line of cars, and inthedistance a dark speck which was the engine,"Come on, George," said the conductor, and heand the rear brakeman started up the track.Just as they came to the rear car I heard ascuffle and two hard-looking men stepped out.They had been riding on the "bumpers" all theway from Chicago. At l{early every couplingthey threw out someone until by the time theyhad reached the front of the train there weretwenty-five or thirty men lined? up along thetrack. The conductor was standing near theengine with pistol in hand, ready to shoot anyman who should try to jump on again. Carafter car passed him and he eagerly scrutinizedeach coupling. I had entered the caboose,thinking that none of the men would try toclimb on, when I heard two sharp shots. I ranto the door, and got there just as the conduc­tor swung on to the platform."Well," he gasped, "I guess that nigger won'ttry to jump again. I hit him I know.""Did he .get off ? " I asked."I think so," said the conductor."If he didn'the'll fall off; for I shot twice." I shudderedand sat down on the platform step The trainwas not going very rapidly, and I noticed a lit­tle red line of blood running between the railsand darkening the white sand.I called the conductor 's attention to it."George," he said, "go up two cars, and if thatnigger is still holding on, kick him off."The rear brakeman went up ahead. In a fewminutes I heard a loud yell, then a groan. Thetrain continued to move slowly ahead.I was watching the track, hardly daringto take my eyes off, and yet at the sametime dreading the sight of a m airried form.Slowly the caboose .crept along. Suddenly adark form seemed to roll out from under thewheels. Its cap 'had tumbled off and had fallendown the bank. The body had dropped fromthe bumpers across the track and had been lit­erally cut in two by the wheels. The face wasturned upward, the eyes were. already settlinginto the stony star of death. Something seemedstrangely familiar to me about the clothing andthe hat. I looked again. Good heavens! Itwas Tom!IIII Dr. Amos W. Patten.It is with pleasure that. the WEEKLY presentsthis week an excellent likeness of Dr. Patten,pastor of the Hyde Park M. E. Church at Fif­ty-fourth and Washington ave. The Doctoris well and most favorably known to manyUniversity people who listen to his sermons.Quite recently the trustees of NorthwesternUniversity established a new professorship of" Biblical Instruction ". and invited Dr. Pattento become the incumbent. He has accepted,and will enter upon his duties with the fall se­mester. Dr. Patten is an alumnus of N orth­western University and also of Garrett BiblicalInstitute. Since graduation he has spent twoyears abroad in the Leipsic and Berlin univer­sities, doing special work in history, arch.eol­ogy and biblical criticism, besides traveling ex­tensively in Egypt and Syria. He· has beenprominently before the church in the last year- by his revision of the great work of the lateDr. Chas. W. Bennett - "Christian Archa-ol­ogy." The new chair, providing as it does forextended courses in the English Bible and inbiblical archseology, is one of great import­ance in the estimation of the church at large.We understand that this chair will also becomea center for the religious life of the university.For this work, as well as that of instructor, Dr.Patten is thoroughly qualified by scholarshipand character.Dr. James Harrington Boyd was entertainedby William B.

The savings bankstation is. open once a week, however, and theplay ground and public library stations areopen the whole day every day in the week.But the most important work of the summer isto get women and children of our neighbor­hood out in the country or the parks.Through the kindness of friends, the Settle­ment has the use of a farm house for the sum­mer, and thus is enabled to take out 'differentgroups of mothers, children and young peoplefor a ,week of fresh air in the beautiful countryof the Fox Lake district. The farm house isnear Antioch, on the Wisconsin central rail­road, about fifty-five miles from the city. Wehave named it the "Happy Hour Cottage."Means have been furnished for the transporta­tion of guests, for their food, and for the com­fortable furnishing of the farm house.· MissCaroline Blum, one of our residents, is in chargefor the summer: She is assisted by Mrs. Thos;. Clendenning of the University.This week three mothers and nine childrenare enjoying the country, and different familiesand groups have_ been selected to fill up thetime for the summer.The Woodlawn Women's Club are giving apicnic every Saturday during the summer tothe children of our neighborhood. Betweentwenty and thirty start off each Saturday morn­ing in charge of one of the presidents and meetsome of the ladies of the club at Jackson orWashington Parks.Mrs. Helen R. Jordan, teacher inthe asylumfor the blind at Jacksonville, is residing at theSettlement for the summer, and, her time ,isgiven to the play ground. She talks to themothers arid children, reads to them, and di­rects games of various sorts. About 5 o'clockin the afterrioorr finds the largest crowd on theplay .ground, when over a hundred children areenjoying to the fullest extent the few vacantlots on Gross avenue.' 'That for which the Settlement has workedfor two years is at last to be realized. The lotsfor the public bath have at last been purchasedand the building will soon be begun. Theselots are just where we wanted them-on Gross avenue, opposite the Settlement lots, or whereour new building will be" when we have one.The flats which we occupy for our settlementhome have been cleaned, papered and calci­mined during the past month.Several have applied in the past week for in­structions in French. We hope some studentwill volunteer to take 'such a class, and willcome over to us soon to make arrangements.A cordial invitation is extended to all stu­dents to come over to see the Settlement.We shall be glad to meet and talk with anywho may come.Prof. George Adam Smith spoke at vesperslast Sunday.At vespers next Sunday, Professor Burtonwill speak on "The Personal Religion of Christ." /'I:.IIiChild Study Congress.Much interest is just now being shown in thestudy of children by societies in various partsof the country. Last Friday two or three meet­ings were held in Chicago by delegates of theIllinois and National Hebart Societies. InKent Theatre, Dr. W. L. Christopher was todeliver the chief address, but he was unable tobe/present. Fred Smedley, of the Universityof Chicago, and Dr. Collin Scott, of ChicagoNormal School, discussed the subject, "Testsof Children in the Chicago Schools," wh ich Dr.Christopher was to have introduced. Bothspeakers, although placed at a disadvantage bythe absence of the leader, gave clear, logicaltalJ<s on the purpose of the work.By means of charts andstatistics, Miss Mar­garet McIntyre of the Chicago Normal Schooldiscussed the subject of "Experience with De­fectives." She called special attention to thephysical deformities that arise from the badlyarranged seats and desks in our public schools."Corrective Work," by Miss Caroline Crawford,also of the Chicago, Norma! School, was a feat­ure of the evening's program,The Graduate Club will give a reception onFriday evening to the graduate students of theUniversity, and the professors giving graduatework. The event will be the largest affair ofits kind ever given at the University. Prof.George Adam Smith and Dr. Harper will delivershort addresses."their classrooms in an hour. Hence, they mayhave neglected to' use the -proper amount ofeffort to be entertaining. Their lack of inter­est soon became contagious, and the result wehave seen. On the other hand, the studentsmay have been first at fault.There is a rule of life, -bom of experience,which teaches that when one gets somethingfor nothing he is generally pay�ng more thanit is worth. Division Lectures being free, stu­dents came to regard them as nuisances, andmade it a point to express their disapproval.This unappreciative audience reacted on thespeaker, and thus the lectures began to belooked upon with disfavor by both studentsand faculty.The beginning of the Spring Quarter, how­ever, saw a change of policy; The plan of hav- 'ing the five upper divisions meet together hasproved to be a marked improvement over theold method, as is shown by the increased inter­est on the part of the audience as well as onthe part of the lecturer. The unprecedentedsight of students taking notes at a DivisionLecture is fast becoming common, and goes toshow that they appreciate the fact that, con­trary to the general rule, the University isreally giving them something for nothing.'Moreover, it is a greater incentive to the lec­turer ,to prepare something worth hearing foran appreciative audience of almost the entireJunior College than for small sections of it whofelt that they were conferring a favor on himby listening. Again, since there are not somany of the lectures, they can all be given bythe very best men in the University-men whoare not only thinkers, but speakers as well.In short, it is becoming apparent that theDivision Lecture problem is rapidly nearing asatisfactory solution, and if it must still beclassed as an experiment, it is certainly one ofsuch a no-vel kind that it is enjoyable even tothe material. There is only one drawback tobe seen _ at present-that there is a possible412 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYtt'be '\llnt"erstt� of (tbtcago llUleekl\2.E'DIlTORIAL BOARD.JAMES M.

Hence, as in all experi­ments, a vast amount of material had to beused up before permanent results could be pro­duced. But in this case the material happenedto be human, and naturally objected to beingconsumed for the benefit of posterity.. It is a question whether the material or theexperimenters were primarily responsible forthe former unpopularity of these lectures. Itwas natural that the professors who dehveredthem should not relish being' required to dis­cuss entertainingly in twenty- minutes, before asmall and compulsory audience, the large re­lations. between studies and life, when theywere not required to do nearly so much inCasparWhitney THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY 413chance that the Division Lecture may becomeso success I ul an institution that the authoritieswill think it their duty to hold examinationson it, in order to invest it with the proper dig­nity as a part of a great educational system.Let us live in the hope that the Division Lec­ture will not become too much of a success.Caspar Whitney, in Harper'sWeekly, Saturday, July I, says:"The week of Pennsylvania's visitto Chicago furnished the pleas-antest incidents of the season'ssport in- the West, and a most refreshing con­trast to the disappointments of the track cam­pionships a fortnight before. One would havethought, when Pennsylvania batted out a vic­tory in the last game, that she was playing be­fore a home crowd, so generous was the ap­plause. It was a gratifying exhibition of sports­manship, and, let us confess with a blush, it didseem foreign to the real business of collegebase ball �s presently played. ,"It is singular, but human,that the same men,so zealous in sportsmanly greeting to Pennsyl­vania, should have yet on their lips the bitterestdenunciations of Michigan, a nearer and morelogical rival, and one of really equal sportsman­ship. Michigan and Illinois have already beenranked above Chicago, and no adequate rea­son was furnished by the Pennsylvania seriesto alter the standing of middle western collegeAgain ..nines."We are glad to be noticed once more by ou rold friend, Caspar Whitney, but this time in anunusual manner. Are we to accept all thisflattery as coming in good faith? Or, in an­other article on western athl�tics by the easternauthority, is it possible we may be dealt a blowin the back? We also fail to see in what lightMichigan is a more logical rival than the Quak­ers,but then that must be a mere personal matterbetween Caspar Whitney and the Pennsylvaniaschool.Casper Whitney and ourselves ta ke just a little different view of things. We are on goodterms with Pennsylvania, and he evidently isnot. He is friendly with Michigan, and we arenot. So what wonder is there if we are not infavor of Michigan's tactics in athletics.ATHLETICS.Stagg will lose one of his valuable trackmen, D. E.
