ALONE WITH CONSCIENCE.

sat alone with my conscience
In place where time had ceased,
Ana we talked of my former living,
In the land where the years increased:
And felt should have to answer
The questions put to me,
And TO face the answers and questions
Throughout an eternity.
The ghost offorgotten actions
4 Came floating before my sight.
And things that dreamed were dead things
Were alive with terrible might;
And the vision of all my past life
Was an awful thing to face
Alone with my conscience, sitting
In that solemnly silent place.
And thought of far away warning
OF sorrow that was to be mine,
In q land that, then, was the future.
But now was the present time;
And thought of my former thinking
OF a judgment day to be;
But sitting alone with my conscience
Was judgment enough for me.
And wondered if there was future
TO this land beyond the grave?
But no one gave me an answer,
And no one came to save.
Then | felt that the future was present,
And the present would never go by,
For twas the thought of my past life
Grown into eternity.
Then woke from my timely dreaming.
And the vision passed away,
And | knew that the far-awav warning
Was a warning of yesterday
And pray may not forgetit it
IN this land before the grave
That may not cry in the future
And no one come to save.
And SO have learned lesson
Which l should have learned before
And which, though learned in dreaming.
hope to forget no more
SO sit alone with my conscience
IN place where the years increase
And l try to remember the future
In the land where lime will cease.
And l know of the future Judgment
How dreadful SO e'er it be-
That to sit alone with my conscience
VIII be Judgment enough for me.

lived, became sailor, abandoned the sea
for military service in New Zealand, and
by and by became an actor. His name was
Henry Aveling. He killed himself the
other day in New York.
The cyanide of potassium which ended
his life, and drops of which left ugly burns
and scars on his white face TO horrify the
hotel chambermaid who first saw him
dead, closed a strange career.

First Act-Boyish life in quiet English
village
Second Act-The boy has grown to youth,
and his early life battles are with the
oceans winds and waves. Then the scene
changes to New Zealand, and he is found
with his first beard and the lines of brave
determined manhood formed about his
mouth. He is soldier and is fighting the
Maoris, knowing no fear, pierced by the
spears of the savages, marked for life by a
crashing stroke from war club on his
forehead, but undaunted
Third Act-He is a struggling actor in
Australia. His talent is great and COM
mands success. In India and England he
is acknowledged to have much merit In
America the way opens clear before him to
fame and fortune. But he closes the gates
which stop his onward march himself One

last scene of this act shows the play to be
a tragedy The stage is hotel bedroom,
and he is the only actor. 1t is poison
scene He is dead
Henry Aveling, whose forty-three years
of life have been briefly described, was
known as an almost phenomenally brill
liant fellow; extravagantly jolly when jolly
at all, but given to occasional fits of morbid
depression, which had led twice before to
attempts at suicide. His ruin came. as has
been said, from wine and women He lost
his heart to every pretty girl who smiled at
him, and became involved in innumerable
scrapes. These troubles he tried to drown
in drink, as many a man has tried before
him. His inebriety gave him bad repu-
tatlon among managers, and when, not
long ago, the paul Kauvar' company, in
which he was playing leading roles, dis
banded prematurely, he was unable to get
another engagement This doubtless was
the direct cause Of his suicide, although a
note left on his dresser shows how bitter
were his remembrances of those portions
OF life dearest to most men. The note said:
To the Carcass Who May Find Ny Shell:
GREETING-First, / wish William Shelton, of
Jim, the Penman,' company, to do as he likes
with my remains, and hereby constitute him
sole owner of every cent / may die possessed
of, no matter in what shape that my property
may be, and | ask William aforesaid to be good
enough to prevent Mrs. Btitten Willett from
appearing in any way in my obsequies.

SWEETEST maidens belong to athletic clubs,
and the crowds that go out every warm
morning from New York to the Berkeley
Oval, just south of High Bridge, are as Sc

are women's favorite spring games every
where, though an effort is being made to
revive the once popular archery. Quoits

skill than strength to throw the thin iron
disks, and there IS something classic and
poetical about the sport. Wednesdays the

the approach of warm weather 1t is too
violent even for rainy days, when tennis is
impracticable. Bowling is still INDUCED
in. The cellar is always cool, even on the
hottest days, and the exercise is always de-

the Browning or the Summing or the

the sensational order, which he ALWAYS af-

one OF the scenes the hero was to be given
his liberty if he succeeded in shooting an
apple off the head of his wife Miss Anna
Won Behren played the part of the wife
She was in reality Frayne's fiancee.
AS the play progressed, and the end of
the fourth act, when this scene was to
take place, approached, Miss Behren placed
herself at one side of the stage with the
apple on her head, while Frayne stood at
the other, rife in hand. The audience-a
very large one-waited for the climax of
the scene silently. Suddenly a streak of
fame burst from the muzzle of the rife
The shot had been fired, but instead of
passing harmlessly through the apple
above the girls head it struck her fair in
the forehead, and she dropped without
moan dead on the stage Frayne sprang
toward her with blanched face and sank
in a swoon by her side. The curtain was
rung down and the audience dismissed
frayne was eXonerated by the coroners

occurred because of an imperfection in the

hair turned snowy white, and he never
ceased to reproach and blame himself for
Miss Behren's death.
