HER OLD CHARGE IN DANGER.
Aunt Maria's Efforts to Save Her
Master From the Telephone,

Aunt Maria's Efforts to Save Her
Master From the Telephone.
There is a well-to-do young South
ern man in this city who lives in a
handsome residence not far from
Central Park, and he has among
other valuable possessions a family OF
seven children.
He had been drought up by an
old negro 'tmammy" somewhere near
Alexandria,, Va, and when his wife
recently suggested that another nurse
be secured for the children his
thoughts reverted to Aunt Maria. He
decided to bring the old negress here,
and in a few weeks she was comforta-
bly, installed in the nursery, much to
the awe of the northern born young
sOuthrons, who were not familiar
with institutions of a bygone age and
who did not quite understand Aunt
Maria's authority.
The young man had telephone in
his house, and as the old negress had
never heard of that invention she

and then with suspicion. The iingling
bell, receiver and other necessary
adjuncts were more than Aunt Maria s
mind could master. She would
never go near "dat debbil's ting no.
how" 1888.
Finally, one day last week S. rang
up from his office, and after brief
conversation requested his wife to
send the old woman to the telephone.
A great deal of persuasion was re-
quired to make her consent, but she
was finally induced to place the re-
ceiver at her ear and listen.
''Is that you, Aunt Maria?' inquired
S. over the wire.
An expression of establishment
spread over the old woman's counten-
ance, quickly followed by one of awe
and another of fear. For several
minutes she stood bewildered, and
then she shouted:
''LrL-Lawd a. massa, Mars Ran
dolp'! How you done git down dar?"
Then she decided that he could not
but be in danger. "Come out ZEN it,"
she cried. "Youse up to some more
dem pranks like when yo' was a chile
Come out'en it! You'll git hurt. Use
comm den arter you," and with
that she started toward the street
door.
Mrs. S. had hard work to keep Aunt
Maria at home until ''Mars' Randolph"
arrived. She refused to have matters
explained, but abiured him by every
thing not 'to go down dar again.
She has never gone near the tele-
phone since.-New York Herald.

The Milkman'S Horse.

A certain nilklnan had to deliver
his milk every day in the week, Sum
days included. After he had made
his rounds he would drive with his
family to church on Sunday. On this
particular Sunday he left his horse
before the house OF one of his cstuom-
ers in Rockville; when he came out
OF the house his horse and milk cart
were gone. When found, the horse
and cart stood in the accustomed
shed at the church, some four miles
away, all safe and sound
Now, how should that horse know
that that particular day was Sunday?
for he was performing his accustomed
duties daily and there was nothing to
remind him that that particular day
was for him to attend church.
Even birds can count The jackdaw
will count as far as three, Let four
men enter a bower where he feeds and
then one of them 60 out these birds
will not go to thefeeding place. Or

But let three 60 out, leaving the fourth
concealed behind in the thicket, and
the iackdaws will fly down for their
feed. They can't count beyond three.

by the persistent edging OF stout
shoulders backed by strong hearts
and steady brains. II it is in them

LUcRETIA BORGIA.
Some Interesting Facts In Connec-

Some Interesting Facts In Connec-
ton With That Historic Person
age.
The distinguished art critic and his
torlan of renaissance, NJ. Charles Yri-
arte, has attempted in the Figaro
what may be called the rehabilitation
of Lucretia Borgia. Thanks to Victor
Hugo and Donizetti, the public in gen
eral has not a very high opinion of the
daughter of Pope Alexander vi. and
the sister Of Caesar Borgia. But all
through so-called history runs strong
current of legend, which is apt to
sweep away the facts and leave sub
stratum of fancy s'Was Lucretia
Borgia really a Messalina and a Julia?"
asks NJ. Yrlarte, "holding the cup of
poison with one hand and the poniard
with the other?" If we study the an
nalists of the neutrality-suspicious.,
for instance find no trace of poi
son or poniard; no more than of i'm
proper love-at most seven love let
tiers, written to Bembo, poet and car
dinal, which English misses may read
without the use of a fan, in the glass
case Of the Ambrosiana of Milan,
where also is preserved piously the
lock of hair before which Byron went
into ecstacies. Lucretia Borgia was
married at 13 to a nephew of the
Sforza, Giovanni, lord of Pesaro, who
was 26. Owing to the irruption OF the
French into Italy, soon after their
union i'll 1893, the course of politics
caused all annulment of the marriage,
to which the vatican lent itself with
the cynical morality of the epoch.
70 revenge himself the outraged
husband launched against Lucretia's
father a frightful accusation, which
may be regarded as the foundation OF
subsequent leglends. The young
beauty became henceforth the shut
tlecock OF politics. Being in need of
the alliance of Aragon, who was reign
ing at Naples, the people made a
union between his daughter and a
natural son of Alphonse H., king of
Napier. He was reputed to be the
handsomest prince of his day in Italy,
being at that time II and his wife Is
years of age. Owing to the jealousy
Lucretia's brother Caesar Borgia, the
handsome Alphonse was strangled in
the apartments of his father-in-law,
Alexander VI. In 1900. Lucretia
welded for the third time another
Alphonse, son of Hercules duke of
Ferrara. At that time she was 20,
and remained to her death, seventeen
years later, the ':pearl of spouses."
Apart from the t1eeting breath of
scandal, which attributed to the prin-
cess two lovers at the court OF Fer
rara, the chroniclers lind nothing
whereof to accuse the golden-haired
beauty. So (says NJ. Yriarte) that
we are forced to the conclusion that
all her manifold wickedness must
have been committed between the
ages OF 13 and 20, supposition not
easily credible even in that precious
eDOch.

Moorish woman, elegantly costum-

to see only her eyes, burning with a
diabolical fire, her robe permitting a
partial glimpse of superb arms, vel
vety shoulders, and so forth.
The orchestra was murmuring a Ian
gushing waltz. What would you have
done in my place? Just what did. I
put my arm around her waist, felt her
supple form swaying against mine,
and away we went like whirlwind.

waltzed again and again, gradually
drawing farther and farther from the

We passed through a greenhouse,
dim, cool and fragrant with flowers
This opened on a lawn. The night was
warm, the grassy sward soft as vel
vet, colored lamps, like luminous
fruit, hung from the trees. Beyond
this grassy plat, a dark, shaded grove.
We entered it, vibrating to the dis
tant music, languishing mid the whis-
pering leaves.
What would you have done in my
place? I tore off my mask and sent it
to the devil; then I softly united the
ribbons which held the mask OF my
adorable coquette.

fireworks inundated us with flood of
dazzling light. Half blinded, I Looked

One OF the younger literary women,
who has made the beginning OF an ex-
cellent reputation, though she is too
young to have become as yet widely
known, makes the statement that she
has definitely and for some years
laid down her pen. The reason she
gives for resigning the foothold she
has struggled for are not without
interest. II have noticed for some
time" she says, *sthat 1 have
been unable to be ordinarily civil to
my little girl. I am busy and I can
not keep my temper when, in the
middle OF paragraph, baby inter-
rupts me. The climax came Just a
few days ago. The child entered the
library few minutes before lunch
hour, walking slowly and timidly.
She came to my desk and put a little
bowl in front of me. Mamma she
said, L have picked up thirty-six
