Tho violet eve is like wayccss stream
Celestial. from the rapt hor2on's brink.
Assuaging day with the divincr drink

The wine warm tlusks, that brim the valley

Like Gods mood in tranquility supreme.
The encircling uplands east and west lie clear
In their aerial amber, threaded fine
Where bushflres knaw the bramb!c thickets

With furtive scarlet. Through the hush be-

One white throat voices till tho stars appear
The benediction of the Thought Divine.

Jaokson,s Statue ON tho Constitution.

JacksOn's Statue on tho Constitution.
In 1888 Commodore Elliott ordered
figure of General Jackson to be carved
to take tho place of billet head which
the United States frigate Constitution
had carried through the war of 1912.
It was placed on the bow of the frig-
ate in June, 1884, when she left the dry
dock in Charlestown navy yard. The
excitement among the political enemies
of Jackson in Boston was intense. A
meeting was called in Faneuil hall
which, however. did not take place
and anonymous letter writers threaten
ed the life of the commodore unless the
statue was removed. On the night of
the I'd of July. 1884, in the midst of a
terrific thunderstorm. Samuel p. Dewey,
young man of 2S, rowed out to the
vessel and managed to saw off tho head
Of the statue and carry it away. The
head was replaced a month later i'll New
York, and the figure remained there un-
til 1874. 1t now occupies place in
the grounds of the naval school at An
napolis. Boston Transcript.

CHAPTER XIII.
A SUGGESTION.


Kavanagh's brougham was waiting at
the door, but the man on the box was not
the driver whom had seen there the night
before.
II have bad news" said Kavanagh as
we passed Lambeth palace. "Read that"
he added, putting a letter In my hand
which he had taken carefully from leather
case.
i opened the foleed sheet of thin. blue
lined paper.
There was a black split eagle I'm the left
hand corner, and on the right of 1t a printed
address In Russian characters. / glanced
down the paper and could make nothing of

acters, but turning the leaf found several

II thought you understood Russian"
"A few words, but 1 can't read Russian
writing"
He took the letter from my hand and ran
through IL in sombcr silence, then raising
his eyes and fixing them roflectively on the
distance he said;

tone, seeing that my perplexity had not
been removed. "You have lost sight OF
the fact that this affair dooms me 70 per.

ssYes. forgot that. i understand now.
But surely the society will forgive you
everything for having saved Taras."
He shook his head mournfully.
! l.ssThe society is governed by hard and fast
rules and permits no member to do harm
for the sake of the good IL may produce.
Besides.n he added quickly to avoid criti
cism of this very antinihilistio principle,
,I.they will certainly regard this as an expe-
dient to escape the penalty of previous acts.
II Is useless to cheat myself with false

zone thing" said Kavanagh at length IN
lighter tone--'one thing that pleases me
in this idea Is that 1t would completely
crush the enemy. When Gordon came
back and made his experiences public, there
would be such blaze up In the papers that
the Russian government would not dare to
make any further attempt to kidnap Taras,
Rudersdorf, for permitting himself to be
cheated, would probably be awarded life
long post at Archangel as a reward for his
services, and Taras would be suffered TO
live In peace"
THAT Is worth great sacrifice" said.
'sYes, will think Of it. Come, 1t Is time
TO return"
On our way back he said:
II am glad I have talked it out with you.
One sees things so much more clearly by
the light another mind throws on them"
And as the brougham stopped before the
door he said:
II shall have made up my mind by to-
morrow, and you shall know the result"
Fervently prayed that he might decide
to carry out his design, and this probably
was the wish he had taken so much pains
| TO inspire.
