Tabernacle gave such a draft that the fire
was forced into the air in columns of
glowing flames that made fearful pic

wood and red hot Goals were shot up as
from a volcano and carried by a strong
breeze they swept through the air in
every direction. Before long both sides of
Greene avenue were ablazc. Sowere those

 The Jew has survived oppression and persecution, and with thankful heart does he pray to the guardian of Israel, who slumbers not nor sleepeth.

the natural thing to do. But still he
had not been left alone-entirely alone
for three years or more.
The days and weeks went on. If Rich.
ard had been accounted eccentric before,
there was far greater cause for the term
now. Life dragged. Too much had been
taken out of his life all at once, for in
the first place the family had been
drawn together more during the trouble
which Lali's advent had brought. Then
the child and its mother, his pupil, were
gone also. He wandered about in kind
of vague unrest The hardest thing in
this world to get used to is the absence
of a familiar footstep and the cheerful
greeting of a familiar eye. And the
man with no chick or child feels even
the absence of his dog from the hearth
rug when he returns from journey or
his days work. 1t gives him sense Of
strangeness and loss. But when it is
the voice of woman and the hand of q
child that is missed you can back no
speculation upon that mans mood or
mind or conduct. There is no influence
like the influence Of habit, and that is
how, when the minds Of people are at
one, physical distance and differences,
no matter how great, are invisible or
at least not obvious.
Richard Armour was a sensible man,
but when one morning he suddenly
packed portmanteau and went up to
town to Cavendish square the act might
be considered from two sides of the
equation. If he came back to enter
again into the social life which for so
many years he had abjured, it was not
very sensible, because the world never
welcomes its deserters 1t might if men
and women grew younger instead Of
older. If he came to see his family, or
because he hungered for his godchild,
or because-but we are hurrying the
situation. 1t were wiser not to state
the problem yet. The afternoon that he
arrived at Cavendish square all his
family were out except his brothers.
wife. Lali was in the drawing room
receiving a visitor who had asked for
Mrs. Armour and Mrs. Francis Armour.
The visitor was received by Mrs. Fran
els Armour. The visitor knew that Mrs.
Armour was not at home. She had by
chance seen her and Marion in Bond
street and was not seen by them. She
straightway got into her carriage and
drove up to Cavendish square, hoping
to find Mrs. Francis Armour at home.
There had been house parties at Grey
hope since Lali had come there to live,
but this visitor, though once an init
mate friend of the family, had never
been guest.
The visitor was Lady Haldwell, once
Miss Julia Sherwood, who had made
possible what was called Francis Ar
mour's tragedy. Since Lali had come to
town Lady Haldwell had seen her, but
had never met her. She was not at
heart wicked, but there are few women
who can resist an opportunity Of anato-
mizing and reckoning up the merits
and demerits Of q woman who has mar
ried an old lover. When that woman is
in the position of Mrs. Francis Armour
the situation has an unusual piquancy
and interest. Hence Lady HaldwelPs
journey of inquisition to Cavendish
square.
AS Richard passed the drawing room
door to ascend the stairs he recognized
the voices.

RECEIVE 4ID FROM THE TOWN,
The Number of Those Aided Has Materially
 Decreased,

The Number of Those Aided Has Materially
 Decreased.
 The number of persons receiving as- sistance from the town has materially decreased during the past month. Ever since last winter, when hard times were at their hardest, the special committee on town poor, consisting of Town Agent Clarity and Selectman Pohlman, has had it's hands full, and several times when there were big rushes for assist ance they were nearly swamped and only weathered through after devoting much of their time to the matter.
 The outside poor, so called because they are outside of the almshouse, now number about 165, which is about one third less than in the winter. Appli- cants for town aid are put through a thorough examination before help is rendered. Many of the more worthy and unfortunate suffer deep embarras- lllCllI oll lA1A0 dCCOullL, Dut LIlcIG IS no help for it, as the town has to take every possible precaution against im- position.
 In the first place the applicant has to give his or her name, age, birthplace length of time living in New Haven birthplace of mother and father and how many children they have; also how many children applicant has and whether or not applicant is working and if not, why not
 To-day there will be distribution of money and groceries. These are the only kinds of help given during the summer. Each applicant receives from $1 to $1.5O and $2. Most of the 165 out side poor receive $l or a like amount in groceries. Those to whom groceries are given are generally men or women that are liable to spend their pittance for drink. They are addicted to the habit and this method is pursued to avoid risk.
 The outside poor consists largely of aged men and women thatsare almost unable to work and that are endeavor- ing to keep outside the almshouse as long as possible
 And now about the almshouse. A daily accounting is made of the pa- tients confined at this institution. Last night there were 322 persons there, which number is far in excess of that for the corresponding month last year. Just before last March the number amounted to over 400. March was a very pleasant month, and in conse- quence this number was increased near ly 100. Later, however, those that had left or been discharged drifted back. They could not find work and there was no other alternative for the town than to take them back,
