Here Leon B~ailey"broke of his explanation
most abruptly, his courtroom eloquence for
saking him; for. confronting him in all her
naughty, imperiouS loveliness, stood Vivian
Grant, daughter of the ex-senator, whose
magnificent residence was the pride OF Lyn-
brooke.
He began to stammer forth some excuse
while inviting her in, but she cut him short
by saying:
Never mind an explanation of your mis-
hap. 1 came on business for my father, who

She did not even glance again at his be-
grimed face, but abruptly left the Office
and returned to the street.
at is no wonder that the servants at the
Grant Mansion dub Miss Vivian Queen
Lofty She is almost supercilious in her
hauteur. Yet she is the only woman 1 ever
met with whom it were possible for me to fall
in Lowell"
Ex-senator Grant was a man of command
ing presence. His hair and beard were pre-
maturely white; and, as Leon Bailey was
ushered into his presence, the young man
noted a haggard and hollow appearance of his
clients cheeks and eyes, which seemed to in
dictate intense mental suffering.
The interview that ensued explained the
ex-SenAtor's agitation.
The evening world., 1888-08-15

A financial crisis. combined with ill-con-
sidered Investments. had swept away his en-
tire fortune.
He placed the whole matter in the hands of
Bailey, vaguely hoping that the latter would
suggest some way of extricating him from
his difficulty. But the young man, thor
oughly versed in law tactics, could not offer
the slightest hope.
Can you suggest nothing-not even an
artihce-by which the crash may he ayerted
for the present I'asked MIR. Grant huskily.

The ex-senator flung out one hand with q
gesture of intense anguish,
Do not speak of her-my proud. queenly
girl, who has never known what it is to have
an ungranted wish" he cried.
The young lawyer turned away, and his
heart was filed with pity for VIVIAN Grant,
proud and imperious though she was.
At he was on the point Of leaving Ihesman-
sion he met her face TO face.
But, somewhat to his chagrin, she swept
past him in her stately fashion, without even
a sign of recognition.

A tenant Of 421 East Forty-eighth street
came to The EVENING WORLD Office Wednes-
day and made a special request for the physi-
clan to call and see his little child. He said
the child had been. and was still, very sick.
He was not able to employ a physician and
did not know what to do. He feared his
child would die.

physician went to the house. he found the
mother sitting by the window in a scant,ly
furnished room holding her boy Willie, who
is two years old, in her lap. The poor child
was in sore need of medical aid. For several
weeks he has had intestinal trouble, and oil
the time without treatment. growing worse
from day to day. Assistance anne just in the
nick of time. and now, with judicious treat
ment and the delightful, cool weather we are
having, the child will probably soon get we'll.
The father is a brass-moulder, but is out of
work Mt the present, making times pretty
hard with him, with his eight children to
support, mostly all too small TO earn any
thing.
His eldest daughter, sixteen years old,
is working to help her father and mother
along.
The mother told the doctor she had been
very sick n few months ago, since which
time she can't remember anything longer

doctor, to call to her assistance the memory

Two of her little boys came In the house
while the doctor was there. They looked
healthy enough. They almost live down by
the river, their mother says. They are as
brown AS Indians. There is no.ittle superficial
sunburn they are tanned to the bones.
This neighborhood Is full of great, high

A number of houses containing the poorest

been able to assimilate its food properly.
The mother was compelled to deprive it of
its nourishment when 1t was but q few weeks
old. food milk costs money. 30 the neces-
sity arose to give it food which it could not
digest. Not blessed with a vigoi Gus consti-
tuition to start with, and with its little stom-
ach almost worn ont trying to take care of
food of which it Is not capable, the suffering
baby has rather poor chances for life. K
supply of artificial food, which suited the
case exactly, was presented to the mother for
her child.

He had proceeded scarce q dozen PAGES.

of a pistol, followed by q piercing, terrified
scream.
The sounds came from the Grant mansion.
Leon Bailey bounded into the house past
the Mortified domestics, who had congregated
ut the entrance TO the library.
The ex-senator was a suicide, his tall form
lying as 1t had fallen In the middle Of the
room.
You were acquainted with all the facts of
my poor fathers embarrassment, therefore
you can tell ne just how much will be left
for me after the estate is settled. II is very
painful TO consider these matters now,b but !

Two weeks had passed SINCE the tragedy at
the Grant mansion, yet Vivian was only par
TALLY aware of the extent of the ~eK-Senator's
losses.
Bailey heaitated before answering her ques-
ton. He well knew that not q dollar could
be saved from the estate, and that this
queenly girl was little else than a penniless
orphan, without even the experience neces-
sary for her to earn her Own Living.
