AN HOUR OF HORROR.

The Chastity Corpse Found in the Back.
Yard of a Literary Mans DOmicile.
1t was close upon the hour of mid.
night.
A man sat alone in an upper room in
a tumble-down tenement; a man whose
face showed by its furrowed brow,
gIaring eyes and pallid lips the effects
of terrible mental struggle going on
within him.
Before him were several pages of
manuscript, and his nervous hand con-
vulsively clutching a pen, was rapidly
adding to them.
Close to his right hand and FIRE.
quently touched by it as he piled his
pen was a cleaning, glittering object
of ivory, silver and steel-a loaded re-
volver.
The window beside him was open,
and through it the cool breeze entered
and famed his fevered brow. The
night without was calm and placid.
Nature was lovely, bathed in the light
of the summer moon; but the man was
oblivious to the beauties of the night.
He glanced at the clock now and then,
and observing the long hand climbing
up the incline toward the figure twelve,
he redoubled his labor at his manu-
script.
Anon he glanced at the revolver on
the desk beside him. He touched its
ivory handle as if faltering in his reso-
ton, and then went on with his writing.
Harki
What sound is that that is borne upon
the breeze of the summer nightP A
long, low wall, like the cry Of woman
in mortal anguish.
The man started like a guilty soul,
dashed the dews of perspiration from
his clammy brow, and uttered an inco-
herent exclamation.
Againl Again, that moaning, I'M
canny cry!
The man heard it and groaned aloud.
He dashed aside the last page of his
manuscript, and glanced again at the
clock The hands marked the hour of
midnight. He grasped the revolver
with a resolute air and exclaimed
through his clenched teeth:
cit must be dOner'
And going to the window, he fired

scattering sound in the back yard, and
next day a gray cat was found dead
close to the wood-shed. The might

- something especially rare and de-
hclous.
This the signore had done, and one
of the servants had prepared it accord
ing to his directions in a little French
tin, which he always carried in his
travelling case, and served it in cup
OF the willow pattern Indian china,
which was the common breakfast SER
vice. The signore had drank it, leav-
only drop or two in the cup, which
my mother saved. The package, too,
was laid aside, and the paper on which
was the superscription. A similar pack
age had been left at Mrs. Van Colts
without any address, and Lily's SER
wants had used it as matter of course,
supposing it came in the customary
way from the grocer, but the curious
fact that the servants were all English
people and cared only for tea, saved
them from drinking it. Mr.. Van Colt,
too, had dined early, having business
in Communipaw, so that Lily was real
ly the only sufferer. Both packages
were examined by a chemist, and
found to contain a large quantity
of arsenic-sO much, indeed, that
it had OvershOt the mark, and not
done its insidiOus but more deadly work.
"And now you will expect to hear
some startling details, but l have none
to give YOU. The victims of this afro
cious attempt both recovered. SignOr
Bolacca left the cOuntry-with what
impression 1 leave you to imagine.

termination to my tale, but then 1t
would not be truth, and l am not
Hawthorne. But can you not imagine
for yourself the fearful condition of
that woman mind? 1t was no impulse
of an outraged love that impelled the
deed. 1t was jealousy, revenge and
wounded vanity. Had she killed her
victims there could have been no more
murder in her heart than was there
already. That she did not was due to
the clumsiness of failure, not to her
intention. And how cool she must
have been, and how disappointed-bu
no, let US believe that the tidal wave
of repentance and sorrow had set in by
the time she knew her plot had failed,
and that for the rest of her life she
made atonement in a thousand deeds of

forgiveness. There are tragic ele-
ments, you see, beneath these quite
| commonplace lives of ours"

a Famous Rurmese FamiIv.

Ex-King Thebaw's famous hairy
family. which he long kept jealousy
at Mandalay, are to visit Europe for
exhibition. The family have been re-
nowned in Burmese history for many
years and the present members, a
mother and son, form the fourth gem
Grafton known. The mother, Maphon,
is sixty-three, quite blind and usually
sits motionless on a platform, Occa-
sionally tanning herself and speaking
in a low, sweet voice. She was seen
and described by Colonel Yule when
on mission to the Court of Ava in
1855. Save her hands and feet, she is
covered with long, soft hair, like her
son, Mo-po-sin, who is covered even to
the drums of his ears. the hair in some
places being five inches long. MO-po-
sin is of medium height, with pale
brown skin, and is fairly friendly,
having been partly educated, and mar
ried to a maid-of-honor. Neither he
nor his mother has either canine teeth
or grinders.-N 7. EUening Post.
