he disappears through the swinging
doors the buzz of conversation is re-

California hotel, and again he walks
down Kearney street a few blocks, but
he always returns soon and drinks
three more glasses in exactly the same
manne and with the same satisfaction,
never varying the performance in the
slightest detail. He repeats the per-

on until exactly midnight, when he
drinks his last three glasses for the
night and strides out after his fortieth
glass of beer with as steady and elastic
step as when he entered the place. The
walters apparently do not know who
or what he is, except that he is a good
customer.

Worlds Fair Rates.

tion will meet in Chicago and will then set
tie the question Of the worlds fair rates SO
far as the territory west Of the Missouri
river to the Pacific coast is concerned. At
the last meeting of the association the
roads interested We're anxious to arrange
to the want of basing rates from the West
ern Passenger association, which controls
the lines running into Chicago from the Mis-
souri, river. At that meeting the Southern
Pacific submitted a proposition of a rate of
$40 for one trip in either direction, east or
west, between the Eastern terminals Of
the T"ranscontinental association territory
and the Pacific coast. Mr.. Fee, of the
Northern Pacific, discussing the subject yes
ferday, however, was of the opinion that the
proposition would not be adopted, owing to
the opposition Of the Colorado roads. What
the attitude of his own road will be, or
what basis Of agreement will probably be
reached, he did not care to say.

Victim Of Human DiabOlis

Victim of Human OOAAshh'
New York, March 2S.-In an uptown
boarding house the other day Lizzie VIII
son was found dead, because of poison
she had taken, to end a life out It which
all pride had been blotted by sin. An
astrologer-Ahmet by name-whose as
sistant she was, had sought to degrade
her beyond description, and she fled from
him. He wrote in anger to the girls
aged mother over the ocean, and told her
that her child was a moral wreck. Then,
with the keenness of diabolism he hunted
down his prey, told her what he had
done, and promised, if she would return
to him, that he would write again to the
mother and declare his previous letter a
lie. This was done, but soon abuse again
drove her forth, and next day she was
found dead, and beside her poor body
were letters that were opened to-day by
a coroner. The dead girl turned in her
shroud to arraign the man Ahmet. She
had written to him: Il want you as u
right, not as a favor, to bury me. You
have ruined my life at home. l cannot
ever be received again. Send i letter
you will find here to my mother, and she
will refund you all it will cost you.
Please have me cremated, is all l ask,
and keep the thing as well as possible out
of the papers,, This much she reached
back from her coffin to claim, and then
her thought had turned with bitterness
to- her future: You shall never be
happy again if I have anything to do in
the great unknown, which I am about to
enter upon.'.
Thus the letter ended, and here is
what was said to the mother in the writ
ing she had asked to have sent to Mrs.
Neil Grossly, Ravernett postofice, lis
burn, County Antrim, Ireland: "Mother:
I am about to take the life which has
always been my curse. Forgive me.
Think no more of your unhappy daughter.
But, mother, | nave not done the things
that man wrote home to you. He is
my murderer, through the letter he has
written to you. He is the one who should
field. Please send him, however, what it
costs. Please tell grandma 1 shall wait
for her, but don't tell her at once that l
have taken my life. Mother, forgive
me-"
Next, the coroner's officials read a note
addressed simply For my boy" and
alone will know what l allude to. I cam
not stand it any longer. l love you better
than life. You are the only one who has
ever been kind to me. l thank you for
it, and hope you will forgive me for what
I am about to do. Don't ever think of
me unkindly, as we shall meet one day
as we should have done years ago. My
boy, good by, and God, if there is such a
being, bless you and make our life hap
py."
And who was "my boyy Was he to
her a nameless son? No, oh no. For
this is the signature, "your sweetheart,
Lizzie" And that's all of the story
only the relics of a human wreck, and a
mothers heart already stricken, but to
bear yet a severer blow. And the man
Ahmet? He has fed, and tomorrow the
girls body will be thrown with other
dead, i'll a trench in potter's field.
