A large crowd was assembled in front
of the Station House at two O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. Inquiry devel-
oped that some officers had taken Chi
naman and native boy inside 1t APP
pears the boy found some money in the
ruins of store burned down during the
late "unpleasantness. The aforesaid
to-wit Chinaman who does up his hair
at the back similar to the ladies, but
shaves off his bangs, this Chinaman, who
comes from race whose history ante
dates the oldest traditions of common
nations by about two thousand years,
yes, this Celestial whose tongue wears
out the organs of speech, and whose
written characters renders man color
blind, did, with malice prepense, con
trary to the peace and dignity of this
Kingdom, and in defiance of all inter
national law, assault, thump, whack
and "smiffligate" that boy ''too
muchee." The boy soon emerged
from the Station House and the
crowd whooped for Joy. 1t is pre-
sumed he had the money, too, as he
was followed by an admiring train, who
urged him to hire hall, run for the
Legislature, etc., etc. The retinue
will stick to him while the coin lasts.

Having thus spoker Peter rose and
prepared for going out. His wife knew
very well his intended destination. He
was going TO the tavern, where he would
he sure to meet some of his wet-day
cronies and where he would drink more
or less. Thus far Peter had not been
in the habit of drinking to inebriation,
but the habit was growing upon him.
Stop minute, Peter she said.

Peter had curiosity and he waited.
Susan left the kitchen, and when she
returned she had on her hood and shawl,
with an umbrella in her hand.
'Sakes alive! Susan, where are We 60
ing?
Il am going with you, Peter; you are
going to the tavern, and l will keep you
company
Peter stared.
Goodness, gracious! Susan, what are
ye thinking of?'
1t is lonesome here without you,
Peter, and if there is comfort to be had
at the tavern, why may | not enjoy it
with you? At all events am going
'SusanP
Don't worry, Peter; 1 won't say a
word in the presence of your cronies TO
hurt your feelings. Wen only enjoy

Peter was not entirely oblivious. He
felt the reproof. He took of his hat
and hung it upon a peg. Then he
scratched his head and said: :Ni1f
Il declare, Susan, that is pretty con-
siderable smart lecture delivered at short
notice. Don't let's say no more. Just
YOU take off your hood and shawl and
I'll stay at home
Susan went away and removed her
outer garments, and Peter got his ham,
mer and nails and went to work, and
before noon he had fiXed weather-strip
upon the dor, had fixed the pump and
the mop, had frightened the chamber
windows, besides having done various
other little things that were needful.
And in the afternoon, spurred up by the
accomplishments of the morning, he
sought work on his own account.
And when night came he felt better
and happier than he had felt before in a
long time. And the good influence did
not fade with the day. That proved the
turning-point of life. Thenceforward
Peter Doldrum went on improving until
he became thrifty and self reliant man.

She didn't show the least disposition
to jump out of the car window, but all
of sudden he grabbed her by the paw.
She grabbed back. Then he leaned
over at an angle of forty-ive degrees,
and she fell toward him. 1t was a very
uncomfortable position, but they main
tanned it with scarcely any change for
hours. Her hat got skewed around al
most hinside before, but she could not
release her clutch for fear he'd go
through the roof. His collar wllted and
his necktie worked around under his
ear, but if he'd let go her paw she'd
think he was mad.

whisper, doesn't it seem funny?'
IL can't realize it," she answered, as
she raked one of her back hairpins
across his nose
"All mine%'
"Yes, lovey."
Never get mad?"
Never, sweety."

folded up the paper, picked up his grip,
and changed to seat across the aisle.
As he sat down a motherly-looking

"Are they married?"

And can nothing be done TO stop it?"

For two or three minutes the newly

There was another interval of silence,
during which she tried to remember
whether they were engaged the week
before her father gave Henry the boot
or whether 1t was the next Sunday.

A Cruel Wrong.
BY GUINEyERE.

GLOW glorious, Lora. If there is one
thing on earth above another that can
lift me into the realms of ecstacy it is
tenor voice, a clear, musical, tenor
voice like this-what is his naine?
Grace Garland refers to her pink
tinted programn.e-"ah! yes, this
Raynor Saville's. So handsome. too, |
wonder you can watch and listen with
that cold, impassiye countenance. Have
you no soul? Does beauty and melody
combined exercise no influence upon"
"Grace, cease your rhapsodies," says
Lora Erskine, with faint, sweet smile.
IL am not without appreciation, but
this man is no wonder, and-I have
seen him, heard him before"
~ hat! you know him, then? You
must have met him, for this is his first
public appearance. hear it was with
reluctance he consented to haYe his
name added to the list of those who for
the sake of charity, display themselves
on this auspicious occasion. What
did"
"Hush, he comes again." whispers
Lora.
There is burst of applause, and all
eyes turn upon that graceful, manly
form standing in the enhancing radi-
ance of the footllghts, with the proud,
dark head and perfect face upon which
is look almost melancholy.
1t is not that Raynur Saville appears
sad or depressed. You would not sus-
pect secret sorrow at his heart nor
shadow upon his life, but there are some
faces that wear a faint, vague pathos
that is fascinating beyond brilliancy, and
his was one of these.
His voice rings out in the plaintive
notes OF a Scotch lovc-song, and his
dark, dreamy eyes gaze out over the sea
of faces and rest upon the face of Lora
| Erskine.
She is sitting with that faint Indifferent
smile on her lips, but as across that
space their eyes meet, a strange look
flashes into her own, and her gloved
hands clinch upon he programme.
The next moment the song ceases,
the singer is gone, and a tall woman IN
salmon pink and black is dashing her
fingers over the keys of the piano forle
that occupies the center of the stage.
What pity Raynor Saville did not
choose professional life" said a little
blonde, sitting behind Lora; Though,
for that matter, it is not too late now
he cannot be more than twenty
seven"
81 believe he has no taste for public
life" answers her companion. "And
his wife"
''Ah, he is married?"
Yes; there is his wife-next to that
woman wearing that hideous green
bOnnet-see?"
Lora waits a moment, then turns
her head slowly, discovers the objection
able head-dress, and draws her breath
hard as her eyes fall upon that fair
blonde face just beyond-a face so pure
and guileless 1t might have been painted
on canvas and titled St. Cecilia. The
eyes are blue as a summer sky, shadow.
less and frank as a child's.
"a pretty little thing-one of those
sweet, lovable creatures to be petted
and trusted" says the voice be-
hind.
What causes the scarlet lips of Lora
Erskine to curve at this instant in a
sneer that fades into that faint, cold
smile again?
You diL not like the rendition OF
