"Does any wife want to see her hus
band run after another woman?"
II presume not, but he'll never run
away with her."
'.No. he never will. said the girl, with
frightful emphasis.
"Who is Pittston?" be asked.
81 don't know. He's Teller OF good
family in Chicago. Harry knew him
there. He's crooked, / think. hang IL,
sometimes I think Harry is, butt don't

Harry laughed one day and said | was
too id honest too tell anything to.
They've got some ugly fellers ABOUT en-
and you look out for 'em."
II will look out But what Will you
do? Tell Harry what I've told you?"
''I'll tell him nothing. Don't you fear'
But he'll never run away and marry
anybody. I'll see this girl and make her
know I'm his wife. l must get back now
or I'll be missed"
The woman slipped down the cross
street, and Dorison retraced his steps
through Lexington avenue, deep In
thought. After carefully reviewing bis
talk with the girl he said:
81 presume the first thing to do is to
see Cathcart and inform him. The next
thing, TO SEE Eustace and tell him. II
strikes me that there is strong weapon
in this TO use with the young girl. 1t

And So the Manager Thought the Great
vIoiinist Was Doing Poor Work.

And So the Manager Thought the Great
yIoiInist Was Doing Poor Work
A music teacher, who lives In small
town in Central Ohio, tells a delicious
story which goes TO show what unap-
preciatiys ears classical music some
times falls on. when the owners OF the
ears think that nothing Is good music
unless it is fast and lively" The incl
dent occurred during concert given by
August Wilhelmj. the great German
yielinist. Wilhelmj, as is known by
musicians, particularly excells In rem
dering andante or adagio movements,
containing much pathos and deep feel
ing.
The proprietor Of the town hall had
heard Of the great artist, and although
he had no more idea what the perform
ance of a solo violinist OF the first rank
would be than he had OF the present
system Of political economy in the plan
ct Mars, he thought II would be apay-
ing speculation TO engage the great
violinist for concert, and accordingly
did so at place which looked ruinous
to his townsmen.
The attendance on the night OF the
concert proved, unfortunately, that the
musical culture OF the place was not
sufficiently advanced to fill the house,
for there was only handful OF people
in the hall At eight o'clock, the time for
commencing the concert.
The music teacher who tells the
story arrived after the concert had
commenced He found the manager
| takipu tickats at the dOOr
swell, Jim," he asked, shows II 60
ing"
The manager looked up with an air OF
deep detection. He said nothing, but
plucking his friends sleeve he led him
| silently TO the door OF the hall and
opened it and looked in. On the stage
stood Wilhemj with all the classic re-
pose of statue. He was playing In q
soulful adagio. As he drew his bow
slowly across the strings he drew
| forth tones which seemed almost
| like melodous sobs In their sweet
pathos. His great lemon colored Stra-
divarius violin, "the Messiah" seemed
to sing almost like thing OF life. The
few people who were there sat entranced
and breathless drinking In the match
| less tones.
"Wel, you see for yourself, prof, p"
said the manager to the music teacher.
"I'm paying that chap $500 for this
concert, and lookee how slow he's a
playin'."

inaccurately II am mistaken In assum-
ing You to be man OF strict nonoi,

of the obligation man owes another IN

Mr. Eustace colored under the 1atter-
ing estimate Of his character.
II asked the question for no IDLE
curiosity. nor from desire to innict
main. but in order to confirm theory
had formed as to the relations existing
between You and Mr.. Dorison. Such
confidence and reliance as you gave MIN
begets return. 1t is knowledge OF Mr..
Dorison's life I want, not OF yours
Now, sir, up to this time you have &C
cepted me on the strength OF my own
statement az to who am. am about
to ask You questions which you should
not answer a stranger or one having no
reasonable right to ask them. Do me
the favor TO examine my credentials
He handed Mr.. Eustace package OF
papers he drew from an inner pocket,
and lay back in his chair patiently
awaiting their examination.
In time Mr.. Eustace returned them.
II am satisfied, sir; some OF them
credit you with great eminence in your
profession"
81 have done some good work in my
time" replied Cathcart indiherently'
eff YOU are satisfied as TO my Identity
we will proceed"
Mr.. Eustace was evidently greatly i'm
pressed with his visitor, and yielded TO
him as most men did.

BREAp FoUNp AFrER MANY pAYs.

Dorison saw nothing OF Cathcart for
several DAYS. III the meantime no o.
pOrtunity was presented him TO have an
interview with the elder Mr.. EuStace,
so that he might clear up the mis-
understanding.
Monday came, and in pursuance OF his
engagement he went TO the EuStace
residence TO escort Evelyn TO the thea
ter. He was distinctly conscious, on
arriving, Of an air of cOnStraint in his
reception, though so far as the young
lady herself was concerned he could see
no difference in the graciousneSS Of her
manner.
At first he was disposed to attribute
everything to his imagination, until he
found that Mr.. Eustace was Ia an ad-

THE strange thing is that while he

not that. Charley urged that to father,

SIX LIVES LOST AT A FIRE.
A FATAL EARLY MORNING BLAZE IN CHI

MANY NARROW ESCAPES FROM DEATH-ALL THE
MEMBERS OF ONE FAMILY PERISH.


MEMBERS OF ONE FAMILY PERISH.
Chicago, Sept, 10.--One Of the worst fires that
has visited the city for some time occurred about
80 this morning, in fourstOry tenement house
Sedgwick-st Although the blaze lasted only
fifty minutes the loss Of life made the trlflng
damage at property stand out more insignificantly
Five people are dead and another will undoubtedly
die The basement and lower floor of the build
ing was used by William Kaftz for bakery, ana
it was in the rear of his open room that the
fire originated. When discovered the flames had
already gained considerable headway The alarm
was at once given, quickly followed by a second.
In the upper stories of the building were five
families, and the scenes that followed were ter
Tibe. After the first volume of smoke had cleared
away and the confusion had In o measure subSlded
the firemen were able TO work more easily in
Tesculng those who were in the burning building.
Men, women and children, all in their night
Clothes had been removed from windows and
stairs above. All egress had been cut off in the
of the house, as the fire had made rapid
progress up the stairway. There were no fire
escapes, and the single flight of stairs in the front
portion of the building afforded little opportunity
of escape.
On the first floor lived William BURN. lie
was awakened by the SMOKE and heat. lie awoke
his wife and four children and they managed to
get down the stairway. only slightly burned
1t was on the second floor that the fire did the
worst work. whole family losing their lives.
When Officer O'Neill and the fremen
broke into the rooms occupied by the Schalll
family. a horrible sight met them. The rooms
were filed with smoke. and water stood the
floor to a depth Of eighteen inches The officer
heard weak voice crying for help and he
CHI into .ho In +bo bod
of Cynthia Schalk. age seventeen. who was barely
alive, and who died later in the day.
In the next room in one heap were found
John Schalk. his wife. two sons ami one daughter.
All were dead 1t looked as if they had got
together and resolved 70 make their escape to-
gether Whether they were sullocated or drowned
is not known
Two or three other people were sIightly injured.
