tor Browns pixies stirred anew the artists

riband about the brow and the roll of
pspyrus in the hand.
"Isn't that Representative Carlisle down
there?" asked Mr.. Mast.
mo: that is Senator Carlisle"
"He looks like the Representative.
"He ought to; he is the same man. You
see, Mr.. Mast, he is Senator when he is at
this end of the Capitol and Representative
when he is at the other end"
1t happened that this was the day when
Mr.. Carlisle was sworn in as Senator at
1915 o'clock. His resignation was not
taken up by the House until 1:l5 During
that hour he was a member of each house
and could have voted in both. When 7 ex-
planned this to Mr.. Mast he gazed LONG and
admiringiy at the new Senator and ex-
claimed:
"WelI, he looks like versatile man. I
should say from a general view of his face
that he could do anything, from engaging
in prize-fght to framing a constitution. +"
While we were admiring Senator Carlisle
we were shocked to find that in some way
Senators Ingalls, and Butler had become
involved in a tongue to tongne combat from
which Mr.. Mast declared he could almost
hear blood dripping.
IT MEANT BLOOD,
81 tell you," said he in great excitement
'this must lead to duel;" and in order that
the truth of history might be preserved he
began neryously to picture the scene mix-
ing it up in dreadful manner with his
ancient Roman inspiration.
''Now 1 understand, said he. wbv this is
called an Arena of the Coliseum and not
a Forum of Cab"
1t did look as if blood would he LET
surely enough, and when the argument was
ended and the combatants turned toward
the cloakroom could appreciate Mr.. Nast's
intense excitement-excitement SO intense
that not nor the doorkeeper could prevent
him from following the warlike Senators to
witness the deadly encounter (which thew.
seemed to be Fastening toward.
In few minutes Mr.. Mast returned His
face was a picture of surprise, astonishment
and disgust compounded.
Whats up?" asked.
He merely curled his lip in unspeakabIe
disgust and handed to me picture of what
he had seen.

"W hen does the ACCORDION leave for New

BERNHARDT AND BARNUM.
How an Affection of the Actress Knee Led TO
an Offer From the Snowman.

How an Affection of the Actress Knee Led to
an Offer From the Snowman.
The talented artist, Madame Sarah Bern
hardt, who some weeks ago was confined to
her room with painful affection of the
knee is now on the high road to recovery,
says an English exchange. At the outset
of her illness, however, serious complica-
tions were at one moment apprehended by
her medical advisers, who even, it is said
warned their patient that if she refused to
attend to their instructions and did not re-
main perfectly quiet, it was within things
possible that she might have to undergo
amputation of her leg.
In this way, and owing to the exaggeration
that SO frequently attends a rumor once
started, the report spread that she positively
was going to lose one of her legs, the out
come OF the report being, SO the celebrated
artist tells her friends, very amazing offer
sent her from America. A well-known
Barnum despatched telegram to Madame
Bernhardt offering her large sum if she
would sell him her leg after the operation,
his intention being to have it embalmed and
to exhibit it in every town of the United
States. The sender of the telegram added
that he or one of his subordinates would en-
bark forthwith on receipt of a favorable
answer to take possession of the precious
limb.
Madame Bernharit has, happily, no need
of taking this extraordinary proposal into
consideration, there being no longer any
anxiety felt touching the condition of the
limb which the American Barnum hankered

distance she stopped, glanced about, seemed
to hesitate. and then ran quickly toward the
bay side of the shore. i was fairly winded
when she ran up the steps and tapped on the
door Of the cottage in which the runaway
Durand had lived. She tapped and tapped
and kept murmuring, incoherently: "Let
me inl Forgive mel Forgive me! You shall
have your way, Cyril, only see me, speak to
me and tell me that you forgive mel" She
stopped speaking for moment only to pound
vigorously on the door.
"Cyril, was insanel 1t was mad jealousy,
Cyril! 1 love you so much! Let me in,
Cyril; let me in, and forgive meP'
The tears in her voice now flooded her
eyes, and she sat down on the veranda steps
and sobbed and wept as if her heart would
break. Relieving her feelings by this very
womanish proceeding, she rose and again
pounded on the door.
"Come to me, Cyril, or alllis dead between
US. If you turn deaf ear to my repent
ance, my heart dies with nv tears. For
your love have ventured all; your con-
tempt will make me reckless as we'll as dam
gerous Enough blood has been spilled; if
more is shed you will be responsible" She
waited moment, as if for an answer; then
said in a strained, harsh, icv-cold voice:
''Good-by, Cyril Durand; if you live you
will not forget me!'
She stalked down the steps and directed
her way toward the hotel, into which she
finally disappeared.
The early grays.of morning surprised me
by the time 1 reached the doctors cottage;
my little night trampshad consumed Just
two and half hours. Policeman Blind was
at mis- post, and from the open windows and
the song issuing from the kitchen I knew
that the doctor had risen. Blind was clever
enough to keep his form hidden In hollow
crowned with bushes at some distance from
the house, where could speak to him with
out fear OF being seen. "Any news, Blina?"
asked, carelessly, not expecting to receive
any.
Nothing much" he answered. "About
an hour alter you lett saw lamp sud-
denly lighted in the doctors room, aud
having nothing to do thought 1 would
take little exercise. 1 climbed up to the
roof of the veranda and took peep into the
doctors room. The blind was pulled down,
but it was not wide enough to completely
cover the window. By twisting my neck 1
could peep into the room"

angry that the man should act without

CHAPTER VIII.

Had been a novice in the profession,
when Mrs. Glaye shrieked aloud the con-
demning word, would have pounced on
the woman then and there; but L had the
wisdom of patience. and I watched and
waited. AT first thought the woman was
a sleep-walker. but soon convinced myself
that she was as wide awake and as conscious
as was. Hers was not the manner of a
somnambulist, but that of q very much
frightened and alarmed woman. Whatever
was her object in visiting the old house, it
was not successful, and with another groan
she blew out the candle and came out into
the open air. She paused for a minute,
shivered, drew her shawl about her decidedly
neat and plump figure, and then walked
quickly in direction opposite to that which
she had first taken. followed, of course,
and was soon plunging after her through a
field of scrubby bushes-lemon laurels, if 1
am not mistaken. 1 tracked her with some
curiosity, for her journey led her far away
from the scene of the murder and toward
the opposite side of the spit of land
where the ocean was pounding on the shore
with sledge hammer light. AT certain

Whom Two Apache Bucks Quarreled the
Rnttlers Settled Ii.
A little blind canyon on the Sierra Madre
used to furnish the Apache with means OF
formally settling their disputes. This gulch
is fairly alive with rattlesnakes.
When two bucks had quarrel which they
did not wish to settle ot-hand they repaired
to this gully, and while the remainder of
the tribe stood around and watched from
the hills on either side the combatants went
together to where the serpents were thickest.
There, stark naked and weaponiess. they
would wrestle. This would wake up the
rattlers in the glen. The aim of each was
to force the other onto the angry snakes.
1t was not unusual ior both to be bitten
while they struggled and rolled around
among the rocks. Each was bound to remain
and wrestle as long as his.adversary had life
or strength enough to struggle with him.

Court Judpe: IN 1857 he was chosen Cover
nor of Georgia and In 1861 and 1868 was re-
elected. He never was defeated for an office
until Joshua Hill beat him after he had
been nominated in 1868 for the United States
Senate. and then he was at once appointed
Chief Justice OF the Supreme Court OF the
State. In 1870 he resigned and became the
president of the Western 8 Atlantic Rail
road Company, and in 1884, after serving
ont the uuexpired term OF General Gordon
in the United States Senate, he was reelected
to the present term, which will expire next

WASHINGTON, July 81 can't make
out what has got into Mr.. Mast lately
whether he has been seeing much summer
opera or reading too much Roman history
but he acts like an amateur tragedian. He
stalks and struts, bresthes aloud, inverts
his sentences SO that they sound like blank
-dreadiully blank-verse. His speech is
of brave sort, about gladiators and trib7
unes, arenas and forums, and augurs which
bore; and his postures remind one OF
Marcus Antonius at district school COM
mencement demanding the loan of his
countrymen's ears.
OF course cannot object to Mr.. Nast's
admiration of the proud old Roman
character or to his emulation of its
fortitudirous courage, but 1 must say,
even at the risk of offending him,
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-07-06

that he is not a born gladiator. He isn't
built that way; why, if Th. Mast were five
feet shorter he would be a hole in the
ground; moreover, 1 am not quite con-
WINGED that he has the gladiatorial spirit. /
remember with humiliating distinctness
how a doorkeeper recently sna*ched him up
by the southerly suburb of his apparel and
whisked him out of the Senate gallery in
time to maintain the secrecy of an executive
session; and do not recall the chapter in
ancient history which relates that any door
keeper ever lugged a gladiator about in this
unseemly and undignifed manner.
IT STICKS IN HIS MEMORY.
Mr.. Mast also remembers this ignominious
episode, and speaks of it frequently. He
seems to feel that he did not acQuit himself
in a truly heroic fashion on that occasion.
I met Mr.. Mast in the Capitol rotunda yes

''Cfce more to the Senate" said he, with
fine dramatic intonation.
So we tod the Senate; and as we were
to'ing it he placed in nv hand sketch
representing himself in the guise and atti-
tude of gladiator, coal-scuttle upon his
head. hammer and tongs in one hand, his
palette for a shield in the other, and mus
tard plaster about his waist to keep his
courage and his trousers up. In the picture
the doorkeeper had skulked behind the
door, leaving the artist master of the cham
Der. L thought perhaps this sketch por-
tended something; that now, may be, the
offending doorkeeper was to be wrenched
from his moorings, and hurled of into the
boundless sea of space. Nothing of the
kind happened, however. When we reached
the door Mr.. Mast peered timIdly up and
down the corridor, peeped in at the open
ing, shrank to his inside limit and
cautiously tiptoed to remote corner of the
gallery, where he sat himself down,
scrooched in the most undesirable attitude
of which be was capable.

BIRDsEYE VIEW.
A Kite and an Instantaneous Camera
Utilized in Securing Them.

A Kite and an Instantaneous Camera
Utilized in Securing Them.
NJ. A. Balut, of Enlavre, has invented a
photograph kite. A kite is far more steady
than balloon in mid-air and Tor this reason
NJ. Balut uses lozenge-shaped kite pro-
vided with long tail. To the kite is at
tached small Photographic camera by
means of a triangular support fixed to the
backbone. The camera is provided with
an instantaneous shutter, actuated BY means
OF slow match. Before flying the kite this
match is lighted, and when combustion has
proceeded so far as to set fire to small
thread it releases the string OF the shutter,
and the exposure is made.
Another very novel feature Of this ingeni-
Gus apparatus is the use of registering
aneroid barometer attached to the kite. so
that the operator can find out the attitude
which the kite has assembled above the
ground. This barometer s combined with
a Photographic registering apparatus,
which operates at the same time as the
camera.
