'My dear Hyacinth, you must not say
such things" demonstrated Lady Rose
dene You do not mean them"
II do mean them!' cried the unhappy
girl. IF she takes my lover from me,
I will kill her!''
Then the wild, passionate words died
in a burst of tears. Lady ROsedene
tried her best to soothe her, but to
Hyacinth It seemed Ns though her soul
had been scared.
Perhaps Alan was not altogether free
from blame. He might, as he express
ed 1t, have kept out Of Lady Fraser's
way; but her evident admiration fat
tered him. More than once, when he
found Hyacinth with q tragic face, and
eyes dim with tears, be muttered words
that were by no means complimentary
to the charming widow; but also more
than once, when he found Hyaclnth
sad and silent, or ready to taunt him
about Lady Fraser, he showed his inde-
pendence by going straight to Lady
Fraser's side.
So things went from bad to worse,
and there seemed little hope of any I'M
proyement. Lady Rosedene resolved to
speak to the beautiful coquette, who
was risking the happiness of two lives
merely to crafty her own vanity. She
resolved to do or say something which
should shorten Lady Fraser's visit.
81 have never felt jealous In all my
life," said Lady Rosedene to herself;
"but H jealousy can change any one
Us that beautiful, happy, loving child Is
changing, it must be hard to bear"
1t Was hard to bear. Hyacinth tried
to trample it down, but it rose again
with a thousand tongues of fame, and
seemed to infold her 1t poisoned every
breath of the sweet summer air; 1t
poisoned the food she ate; 1t killed all
sweet sleep; it destroyed all rest. 1t
was like a corrOding poison eating her
very heart away. There was no bright
ness, no beauty left in her life.
She was weighing evidence about
Alan. She said to herself a hundred
times over that If he really found that
he liked Lady Erase: best she would
give him up, and then tried to imagine
what her life would be without him,
and found that It held nothing for her
but despair and death.
More than once Lady Fraser shlng
her into the madness Of pain, and she
had cried aloud that she wished her
rival dead. With many additions the
words were passed from one to another,
and the guests said such passion was
dangerous.

What Allied the Girl.

shoes, stood outside fashionable West

there was mortal pain on her face.

He repeated the words in wonder.
"Give up Lady Fraser! Why, my

She is nothing to me-"
"She talks to you; you sing with her;
you kiss her hand. I saw 1t. Oh, Alan,

piled. Il hope you are not jealous, Hy-

"She causes me nothing but pain" !"
said the girl, earnestly. "But I see 1t

he answered, little dreaming Of the bit

"You see, she is clever woman, and I
understand her.

you with her."

gravely, ''while we are in the world,

ONE WOMAN COMPOSER.

There gre Not Many, but Mics steiner
is q Musical Genius.
A colored servant ushers visitors into
little coy parlor in an apartment
up town in New York where lives q
genius.
The principal feature Of the room Is
large piano, and when tall slender
woman, with IL head that has rightly
been called classic" comes in we know
that we are at the home of Miss Emma
Il. Steiner, who hns scored many
operas, both comic and grand, who Is
well known as a most successful Or
chestra conductor, besides composing
the music for the bright little songs,
and who has now finished the first act
of her third complete opera which Is
to be q sort of musical story.
Miss Steiner's first light opera was
beautiful arrangement Of Tennyson's
"Day Dream" with extensive scenic
effects; and her second was "Fleur-
ette," which first appeared In this city.
The libretto for the latter was an
adaptation from the French, and the
music was light, gay anl characteris-
tic, well suited to express the genius OF
tllL lively people.
Her song music covers wide range.
In answer to questions, she sits down
to the piano and dashes off one Of those
'.catchy" airs, set to a series of short
lined rhymes, which find place In the
bruins of gay juniors and grave seniors
and make their presence felt ut mo-
ments opportune or inopportune, and
frequently when the mind should be
upon serious thoughts intent. In 1.-The
Hungarian" rather a wild air, bright
woman friend Of Miss Steiner, stu
dent and lecturer, says she must have
been casting out all the devils that may
ever have possessed her. The music
set to Miss Helene Freston's You VIII
Remember" Is of an entirely different
order, and the chorus master of tlse
grand opera at Vienna said it was
more difficult than Wagners music to
trapspose. Miss Steiner's music to the
song, II Envy the Rose" written by
Harry G. Millais, nephew of Millafs,
the artist, has been sung by Carl Streit-
mail in Vienna, and the orchestration
is said to be beautiful. Strange to say,
though the song was published In New
York and thousands of copies have
been sold, it has remained comparative
ly unknown here. She refuses, how
ever, to do much composition Of this
Kind, US she prefers opera and likes
'sharmony compact, not trivial, and
with the melody flowing light" Miss
Steiner's father, Col. Frederic Steiner,
does not approve of her lighter veins
of music; in fact, like the prophet, her
talent has not been so much apprecl,
ated at home rs away, and she has
worked her way up by her own un.
aided efforts. She was only nine when
she began to compose, and at eleven
she had written and arranged a duet
for four hands. The townsfolk were
very much impressed by her ability
She was in great demand at private en-
tertainments and arranged choruses
and musicales with such success that
she soon looked for Il wider field on the
stage.-Woman's Illustrated News.
