TWO DOMESTIC TRAGEDIES.

Two Noble Hearted Girls Who Faced the
Horrors of Murder.
They were sisters, these two, at the
moment in awful peril, and they were
alone in the house in their extremity,
says the Free Press.
Here" said the elder one, handing
her sister a deadly-looking dirk, lis a
knife. Bethink you you can use it?''
ST bethink me I can,'' replied the
younger girl with chattering teeth,
s'but oh, Celeste, is there no way but
this?"
She had read "Virginius.''
''None; methinks / hear him move. p"
''S'do L. He is struggling to escape" +"
"Open the cellar door cautiously. I
have oiled the hinges. I will stand
here and hold the light. Courage, brave
grill Hist! 1 can hear him STIR
s'Now may the fates defend u.s.
whispered the girl with the knife, ''and
save me from a death ignoble. What
vital part shall strike, Celeste?''
''Give it to him in the neck, sister.
But soft, is yonder light the jocund orb
of day, and has the night faded into
morrow?''
''Nay, that is the electric light on the
corner which has just showed its hand
go now to kill him. Yes, have said
it, to k-k-kill himl''
The brave, heroic, beautiful girl
plunged down the stairs into the
Opaque semi-darkness, and in moment
terrific shriek-Celeste at once rec
ognized the brand-told that all was
over.
''Are you bringing him up?" asked
the girl at the head of the cellar stairs
in voice alike on both sides.
'tYes-by hand" came the ghostly
whisper.
The next moment he was dropped on
the floor, and the sisters threw them
selves into each others arms, while
Shrek after shrek Glove the purple dis
tance of the night.
