MASONS WILL RETURN.
Convfcts Employed because of q
Lack of Material.

Some Of the labor organizations of
Brooklyn are investigating charges made
against the Commissioners Of Charities
for dlscharging mechanics at work on
the penitentiary and compelling the
convicts to do the mason work on some
Of the new cells in the building.
The Commissioners claim that the men
were laid of for lack of stone to con-
tinue the work
While the convic:s are at work the
keepers have to watch them closely to
see that poor material is not used, and
for th,s reason the authorities are
anxious to have the work done by regu-
lar mechanics. II the convict laborers
succeeded in building the walls OF a cell
with poor masonry, 1t might be an easy
matter for the occupant to escape into
the yard of the prison, the Warden
says. and then scale the high wall to
the street.
The masons, 1t Is said. will be taken
on the work again Just as soon as the
stone arrives in sufficient quantity.

I the alcove room Maxey had often
watched it with an insufferable feeling
Of regret and pity at his heart. The deli
cate outline of the oval face and the
classic features, despite the unnatural
expression which distorted the counte-
nance and robbed it of its chief charm,
had whispered a sorrowful story Of d lost
radiance that would have da2zled the
eyes Of the beholder. And now, as the
artist saw this face again, lit up with
the light Of reason and changing with
the varying thoughts, deadly pale and
hollow though it was, he realized, with
the unerring instinct Of q student of the
pleasing in nature, that the reality was
even stranger than he had pictured it,
and he said to himself:
Shc will be beautiful. "
There was a deeply troubled look in the
dark eyes, as they finished the momen-
tary survey Of the apartment and came
back to rest on Miss MaXey's face. The
pale lips murmured something which
sounded to her hearers like, II do not
understand. "
AT any rate, DR.. Lamar took it upon
himself to say again:
"These are your friends, Miss Maxey
and her brother, who took care of you in
your illness. You are to stay here with
them as long as you like, to make your
lome with them, if you will, until you
are well, strong and able to go where
you desire" "
Charity" whispered the voice, a
slight color coming into the face DR..
Lamar understood the delicate shrinking
of sensitive nature and feared that it
might have a tendency to retard her con-
valescence. The unscrupulous man lied:
Not in the least. Your father has Sc
curod them to take charge Of you during
his absence He was obliged to go
away"
He is not my father" she returned
in clearer voice. The sound of that
voice made Maxey's heart beat faster
The accents and intonatiOn were Il reve-
lation. They could have been the prod
uct alone of refinement and education.
A joyous thought seemed to arise sud
denly in the poor girls mind, thought
that made her eyes glisten and her breath
come quick She looked eagerly first into
MaXey's face and then into the face Of
his sister. Something seemed to trehblc
on her lips, but she ,folbore to utter it.
Tho artist, who had been watching her
every movement, started forward.
Say that you know us; that you rec
ognizo this place; that you remember to
have been here baforoW
The rising color suddenly faded from
the pale face, and to the astonishment
of everybody she said:
You are my brother and you my sis
ter! You have brought me homel'
MaXey's heart sank. Was her mind
wandering? Her eager glance encounter
