though she was beautiful enough to
satisfy the senses of the critical, there
was perhaps something of contempt in
tcrwoven with his love. His victory

Dear Jim, you arc not going to be

II am afraid so. But couldn't you

THAT you will marry me when I do

The quick breath that heavcd In

He swore that he did; that life WINS

tove for This Pastry Barred Hkl DAT Of
the Pulpit and Drove Him 60 Forgery.
A most singular case Is now in the
courts at Kingston, in this state. n
Toung man living there was lately
lound to be a forger, ard when he con
'essed he said he was driven to the
rhine by an ungovernable gluttony for
nince pie. To satisfy his craving he
had forged the signature of a wealthy
nan to a note for one thousand dollars,
and had got the paper discounted, says
he Buffalo Courier. With the proceeds
he vent on a milce-pie spree, and hat
ievoured sixty dollars worth OF this
pastry before he was arrested.
According to his story his extraordi-
nary liking for mince pie began TO
show itself when he was a boy. He
seemed even then TO feel that there
was something abnormal in his appe-
lite, for he went voluntarily to Bloom
ingdale asylum in the hope of being
cured of his gluttony. After he came
out he believed he was cured and be-
gan to study for the ministry. But
in a fatal hour, about two years later.
the mania for pie came upon him
with irresistible power. He broke
into the housekecper's closet in the
Auburn Theological seminary, where
he was n student, and gorged himself
with nince pie. His relapse so preyed
upon him that he went to the faculty,
and they advised him, he says, to drop
his studies, as IL would be Diet
rimertal to the ministerial call
ing for him to enter it with
such a fatal appetite FOR mince pie. He
would be likely to suffer a seizure OF his
mania at a supper in the church p~arlors
5r at the table of one of his flock, and
create an unforgetable scandal. lie
took the advice of the faculty and
went to peddling clothes-wringers and
bed springs, but his malGdy was now
so deep seated that he su~bordinated
everything to his craving. He devel.
oped an unusual cunning for stealing
mince pie, or in getting the money
with which to purchase it. 81 would

two pies. l became as helpless a vic
tim to the mince Pie habit as tho drunk
ard is to the drink habit. Sometimes
have pawned my o%vercoat or my watch
when l have seen an uncommonly
luscious pie in a window and have not
had enough ready money to buy it."
Then came the forging of the note
and the pie orgy which ended in his ar
rest. After hearing his story a com
mission was appointed to inquire into
his sanity, and it is likely that, in
stead of being sem to a penitentiary
he will be placed in a lunatic asylum
He is described as a thin, nervous-iook

A certain March night of this pres

upon the woods and the park and the
parapets of Ambrose Towers. The
harsh stable clock struck n quarter to

far as To the Grand Walk. whose peb-
bles shone like the floor-stones Of the
Apocalyptic city, she paused and looked
back at the old brick walls red in the

mullions, the silhouette of the tower,
though listening rather than seeing
seemed her object in coming to the
pause. The clammy wings of n bat
brushed past her face, startling her and
making her shivcr n little. The stamp
ing of one or two horses in their stalls
surprised her by its distinctncss and
isolation. The servants offices were on
the other side Of the house, and the
lady who, with the exception of the
girl on the terrace, was its sole occu-
pant, was resting on "A sofa behind one
of the curtained windows. So Rosalys
