WORKHOUSE JULIET.
DAILY MAKES LOVE TO YOUNG WORKMAN ACROSS THE ROAD. Westminster Guardians have on their hands a troublesome and romantic young woman,(_ an inmate of the workhouse, whose infatuation for a young workman is causing them some concern'. The workman is engaged on a job at a house opposite the workhouse, and ' every day the, young, woman takes up her position at a window, and makes : lore to him ini a most persistent manner. ' Nothing that the matron can' say. or do lias' any effect on the infatuated girl, who has threatened that if she is ' "not allowed to continue her .lovefmakipgishe will commit suicide by throwing herself from her window. The guardians have agreed to allow Miss Hayman, a member of the Board, to take charge of the young woman, and, by finding a situation for her out- ? side the “house,”' place- her in surif: roundings where, it is hoped, she will forget her Romeo. Should this change prove unsuccessful, the guardians intend to send the lovesick maid to Canada.
