By MARY KYLE DALLAS.
~ coNTINuHD.1

The poor little creature said this as
piteously as though Roy Clifford had
uttered and broken a thousand VOWS of
fidelity.
It never occurred to her that he had
made no protestations whatever, that he
had never spoken of love, that she did
not even know what had passed between
this young man and Mr.. Bunny, who
had brought her home a sweetheart
much as he might have brought her
home doll in her childhood.
Her castles in the air had been so
charmingly built and 30 delightfully."-
peopled that she never dreamed of doubt
ing their reality.
But now Roy Clifford appeared at the
door, shut it behind him and stalked up
the street. How handsome he was in
Maisie's eyes, the very perfection of
manly grace and beauty!
"Oh, if l lose him cannot live," she
said, land must kill myself, unless God
lets me die of a bwoken heart. am sure
l should be fowgiven for killing myself,
for the angels would know that l had
lost all that was worth living for" Then
she pressed both little hands to her fore
head, and leaving her hiding place sped
The moon had risen. To what lover
does not the moon seem friend?
Maisie often lifted her eyes toward the
great, golden disk sailing above the
as she hurried along with
agonized, imploring glances, as though
she prayed for aid from Diana. Those
who passed the flying figure took it for a
oelated child frightened by the shadows
If the midnight streets. How could
hey guess that beneath that quaint |
title cloak with its peaked hood beat the
most anxious, passionate, longing wom
ms heart abroad that night in the great
,ity,

out like female imp Of Satan bent on
cruel mischief.
She was ready for anything, as the old
woman plainly saw, anything, and a
strange fellow feeling possessed the soul
of the latter. She liked Maisie, with the
ardent liking that old black women often
feel for young white girls. She really
wanted to help her, even while she in
tended to be well paid for doing so, for
the money she demanded would enable
her to leave place too hot to hold her
much longer. Fortune telling was by
no means her worst offence against So
ciety, and she was in danger of arrest.
Moreover she was in debt. She needed
the money as she had never needed it be-
fore, but she honestly intended to show
Maisie now to harm her rival, and for
this unknown Eugene she had no more
mercy or pity than she would for ven
emous snake on whose neck she was
about to set her heel.
In her youth she, too, had suffered the
pangs of jealousy, and she had had her
revenge. The memory still filled her
soul with savage joy, old as she was,
toothless, wrinkled, racked with aches
and pains. She would still at times rub
her black hands together, chuckling,
shaking her head and whispering, per-
haps to Solomon, the toad, Hi, den, she
didn' get de best of it after all, dat dar
yaller gal"
"Bring me de hundred dollars, den,

softly; "bring me de money. Dey is

The old woman nodded, and accom-

door for her; but when Maisie was gone

Brooks as bishop of the diocese of Massa-
chusetts will take place in Trinity church,
Boston, Oct. 18th.
The Itata has paid her fine of 500 for
evading the customs laws. She is now to
be bonded for Sl60, 600 and proceed to San
Francisco for repairs, with leave of alb
sence for six weeks. On her return she
will await the action of the courts, and in
the end will probably get off scot free so
far as any punishment is concerned.
A sensation has been caused at Ottawa
by the discovery that Sir John Macdonald,
the Dominion prime minister, in his will
bequeathes capital stock in the Canadian
Pacific railroad to his wife. The fact that
the head of the government which gave the
company about S1OO,OOO,OOO of public mon
ey had block of its stock in the name of
a New York broker skaters the idea of
the personal probity and poverty of the old
man.

What Republican saw in Europe

General James 5. Clarkson, president
of the Republican National League, who
has just returned from a visit to Europe,
was given a welcome by prominent Repub-
licans at the Oriental hotel, Coney Island,
last Friday night. In the course of his
after-dinner speech on the occasion Gen.
Clarkson said:
\ Republican visiting Europe is doubly
pleased to find that an enlarged American
trade with other countries is not only pos
Sible under the system of protection, but
most largely possible through the opera
tions of protection and reciprocity. All
doubts that l had as to the practical wis
dom of the Mckinley bill and of the new
Republican system of reciprocity were re-
moved by what | saw and learned i'm Eu-
rope.
The intelligent Europeans of all classes
not only see but fear the loss to them and
the gain to America through the operation
of these two systems. The admissions of
the London Times and other great Euro
pean papers, which they have already been
forced to make in regard to the tin sched-
ule of the American act, is the highest
praise to the Republican craftsmanship
which gave the American people that bill
The American traveller in England and
France finds that the greatest source of dis
satisfaction is not with the Mckinley bill
so much as the administrative act which
compels them to make their manifests ac-
curate and truthful. But after awhile they
will find even in this the compensating
pleasure that comes from being honest
Another thing that strengthens the faith
of the Republican visiting Europe is the
plain expression of hope heard in many
quarters that the Democrats may return to
power in the United States and reverse the
American legislation in European interests.
| have never been where the Democratic
party was as popular as in England; and
yet noticed that many visiting American
Democrats hardly seemed proud of such
popularity for their party, Laughter,

COMRADES. -

The enterprise which marks the man
agement of the First Regiment band was
shown by the production at Wednesday
evenings concert, at very brief notice. of
the popular song of the day, Comrades" ="
which now holds the boards in New York
against all other favorites. The story of
the song is that of two soldiers, compan-
ions from their youth, who are members
of the same regiment sent to savage parts.
and engaged there in deadly fray. A saw
age throws spear at one of the two COM
rades. The other steps in front of his
friend to shield him, and receives the spear
in his own heart. The vocal solo was given
by Mr.. Markham, the voices of the mem
bers of the band joining in the chorus:
Comrades comrades ever since we were BOYS
Sharing each others sorrows, sharing each 9th
ers joys;
Comrades when manhood was dawniuy faithfuI
whate 'er might betide--
When danger threatened my darling old comrade
was then by my side"
The New York Evening Sun says of the
song: ut was introduced to America by
Bessie BOnehill a year ago. 1t instantly
became popular and has since been sung by
every one, to the exclusion of nearly ev-
cry other song. When the Seventh regi-
ment went into camp at Peekskill on June
%, every man in the regiment knew Com
rades' by heart. The men sang it night
and day. Cappa's band was forced to play
it day and night, the Doodlesack band, a
wildcat musical company, wore itself out
playing and singing it, and every young
woman in the village of Peekskil sang it
to more or less eXecrable pianoforte ac-
for hours at a time.
