couraged to plead for the hand of the
Princess Bru. 1t was no easy task
which he thus essayed. The man who
won the hand of the emperOr's child
would be king one day, and this fact
had been a potent motive IN the lnsuc-
cessful suit of Ramek, the wise.
Thus it was that there was great ex-
sissesco.. 81 the land when the emperor,
yielding to the blushing intercession Of
his child, graciously ACKNOWLEDGED the
worthiness of Prince Hamassar and
placed i'm his the hand of Princess Bru
The courtiers smiled and shouted in ac-
claim. but Ramek. frOwning, stole from
the hall in silence, and when he reached
the street breathed vow of vengeance
to the gods. What if he We're old and
thin! Was he not wise? Who was this
Hamassar that he should win king
don, and bride while better men must
bow before him and wander alone be-
meath the stars? But hold, the end was
not yet! Was there not way to over
come this bold presumption Oh the part
OF prince loIhhcily 81 HloHeSt' ottely
Ramek, who had placed ali emperor be-
meath his thumb, should not be defeated
because for moment the force OF youth
had proved too much for his gray hairs
Committing thus with himself the
Csssius like figure of the defeated suitor
approached the palace. The day was
hot, and as he removed his hat and let
the flower scented breeze play with his
silvered locks his face became stern
with vengeful and determined pur-
pose. Could Hamassar and the Princess
Bru have seen that look their transports
would have been much less pronounced.

The palace of Prince Hamassar was
gay with brilliant lights, and on the soft,
N:arm air OF night arose the joyous notes
of a drinking song. The gardens which
surrounded the great mansion seemed to
feel the influence Of the gayety, for the
flowers welcomed the kisses of the night

echoed from the banquet hall. The
fountains splashed merrily, and when
the moon came up seemed to laugh at
their own silvery beauty.
, Within the palace dark faced eunuchs
hurried about dispensing the hospitality
of their lord. For Prince HamasSar en-
tcrtained that night goo nightly men in
honor of his betrOthal to the emperor's
child. The banquet room presented a
glorious scene About the table We're
gathered the statesmen, poets. merchants

were glad TO see the viands and the wines
disappear SO fast, for well they knew that
indigestion. sharp and painful, would
give them work next day. S0each guest
was happy in his own peculiar way, and
decoFum gave place to mirth rs the night
waxed old.
At the head Of the room sat handsome
Prince Hamassar, his dark, fine face
lighted with a smile. Why should he
not be glad? Youth. wealth and fame
were his, and the promise of crown.
The fairest maiden in the world had

prince and often pledged his health in a
trimming goblet of the headiest wine.
Hamassar, unsuspecting of his rivals

PoPEPrUs IX. i MisoN.



Masons in this city are mildly inter
ested in the cable reports of tine conmo-
ton IN the trenchGhamber Of Deputies
on Friday over the statement by Pmsi.
dent Floquet that Pope Plus TX. was a
Freemason.
a worn copy Of the Koice Of 4Mdsonrg,
published in July, 1874, has been found,
IN which the story Of tile expulsion of
Plus Ok. from the order was published.
The story is as follows:
At the semi annual meeting Of The
Grand Lodge of Masons, Scottish Rite
Of the Orient, Of l'alorms Italy on lie
9th Of March last, Pope l'ius *. was
expelled from the order. The decree Of
expulsion was published in tile official
Masonic paperat Cologne, Germany and
is preceded by the minutes Of the lodge
IN which he was initiated, and il as fol,
lows.
A man named Mastai Ferretti, who
received the baptism of Freemasonry
and s0lemnly pledged his love and fei-
lowship, and who aftorwarl was
crowned Pope and King under the title
Of Pio TX, has now cursed his former
brethren and accommodated all mem
bers Of the Order Of Freemasons.
Therefore, said Mastai Ferretti is
herewith, by decree of the Grand Lodge
OF the Orient, Palermo, expelled from
the order for perjury
The charges against him were first
preferred in his lodge at Palermo in
1865, and notification and copy thereof
sent to MIN, with request to attend the
lodge for the purpose Of answering the
same. To this he made no reply, and,
Tor divers reasons, the charges were not
pressed until he urged the bishops Of
Brazil to act aggreseively toward the
freemasons. Then they were pressed,
and, after regular trial, decree Of AZ,
pulsion was entered and published, the
same being signed by Victor Emmanuel
hing OF Italy, and Grand Master Of the
Orieut OF italy"

He Thought Only OF His Family,

The road was uneven and there were
numerous sharp curves, and as the train
was running at a high rate of speed it
was anything but comfortable for the pas
sengers. Sometimes it actually seemed as
though all the wheels ON one side were off
the rail at once.
This didn't serve to put arg of the pas
sengers at ease, but it seemed to have a
particularly bad effect on little old
fellow near the middle of the car. He
gssw more and more nervous with every
jerk of the car, and finally called the porter
to him.
How soon will we reach place where 1
can send dispatch" he asked.
Bout ten minutes, seh," was the
reply
An right. Bring me a telegraph

1t was brought and he hastily scrib-
bled the following message to a New York
broker:
Sell all my stock in X. and 2. road at
once and at any price you can get"
You don't seem to have much confidence
in the road, ;" said the man in the next seat,
who had read the dispatch over the little
mans shoulder.
Il haven't" was the terse reply.
You don'rthink it has much of future,
apparently;"
Future be hangedr returned the little
man, y was thinking of the present and
my family"
Your familyI' exclaimed the stranger.
What has your family got to do with it,"
Everything, my friend. everything"
exclaimed the little man, and if you were
anything of fnancier you'd see it. I've
got to ride 200 miles on this road yet, and
how would it look for my family to sue the
road for damages that if secured would
practically come out Of my estate' No, sir.
Phi allow this dispatch twenty minutes TO
reach New York, and I'll allow the broker
twenty-five minutes to dispose Of the stock
If this blamed car keeps the rails for forty
five minutes more some one else will be
stuck for damages if I climb the golden
stairs. And if she holds the rails for the
