flower girl; but to young Antonio Cap
piani, the organ grinder, she was cara
mia Teresina."
Next to his monkey, Gigi, the dearest
and sweetest thing in the world to An
tonic was his Teresina. Basta! Giovan-
nj Tassilo, the girls father, was Sicil-
ian with blood like lava and a temper
inferno! He was a harsh, capricious,
insanely jealous padrone of parent. In
the daytime he presided over apush-cart
laden with the fruits of the season; at
night he followed and watched his little
daughter as she sold her boutonnieres in
the uptown cafes and outside of the
theaters in the Tenderloin.
Left motherless at the tender age of
five, Teresina had grown up under blows
and endcarments, oaths and caresses, q
struggling little sunbeam in shady
spot. AS twas, she lightened the hearts
of her countrymen with laugh that
was a tune; she cheered the old and sick
of the quarter with voice as sweet
and welcome as yesper bells; and her
eyes held for Antonio Cappiani, the
maestro of modern organ-grinders, an
inspiration heavenly-so gladstone, in
fact, that he had already worn out two
cylinders of "Sweet Marie" playing her
praises about town.
She was only Is, yet woman. Her
cheek had the blush of the ripening
grape, her eye was brown as the hazel
nut, her hair black as midnight, and
her figure-Corpo di Bacco!-divine!
her bosom half globed, like folded
lilies in the stream"
Many were the boutonnieres she sod
along Broadway, and when, after an un-
usually good nights work, she returned
TO the Bend with Giovanni her peck It's
jingling with coin, the old man would
forget his jealous fears and murmur
admiringly, in patois:
''Non pezzo, piccolo, Teresa, non pei
20 piccolo, carissima!" as he gloated
over the shining silver.
Dio! it would never do to lose Teresa,
his precious little mint, his pure white
dove.
Diavolo! but he must guard her care
fully, for had she not many suitors,
young and old, rich and poor? Had he
not seen the fine American signors IN
the uptown cafes try to kiss her wncn
flushed with wine?
Inferno! he would run his stilctto
through them, one and all, should they
attempt to steal his daughter from him.
OF but one man was he really fearful

who lived in the rear basement of the
court, the window of whose room looked
into the abode of his little one, aud to

Head Gnrnishings.

When Emperor Napoleon /. was
crowned king Of Italy at Milan, May,
20, 1905, he placed the iron crown of
Lombardy upon his head with his own
hands, exclaiming: "Dieu me Ia dome;
gare qui la touche." God has given
1t to me; beware who touches IT'D which
was the naughty motto attached to it
by it's ancient owners. The Hungarian
crown, worn at their accession by the
emperors of Austria as kings of Hun
gary. is the identical one worn by
Stephen eight hundred years ago. 1t
is OF pure gold and weighs nine marks
six ounces fourteen pounds), and is
adorned with fifty-three sapphires,
fifty rubies, one emerald. and three
hundred and thirty-eight pearls. The
crown of the kings OF France is a cir
Gle, enameled, adorned with precious
stones, and heightened up with eight
arched diadems, rising from as many
feurs-de-lis, that conjoin at the top
under double feur-de-lis, all of gold.

Giovanni had been unable to trace or
follow them.
Maledizione! Curses on the day he
let her speak to the fine gentlemen Of
the cafes.
The wise ones of the colony winked
the eye and said the police would never
find her.
"Poppotetta!" La Picciola had her
price like the rest of the girls; she want
ed higher bidder than Cappiani; she
had run off with some rich American
Isignor who would buy her fine gowns
and put diamonds in her ears. Giovan-
nj swore that she had been kidnapped,
that she never would have left him will

nothing after his first furious outburst
of grief and rage; he did nothing but
preserve an ominous silence that BODIED

name in his presence; he was as quick
and ready with the knife as Giovanni.
He kept silent and drank more ver-
mouth and absinthe than was good for
him. The Sweet Marie" cylinder was
taken out of the organ and ground un-
der foot; he would never play the mel
ody again. To console himself he re-
placed the rejected cylinder with the
intermezzo from "Cavalleria Rusti-
cana" and the music of Mascagni
soothed him ut times.

scratch his head in utter bewilderment.
Corpo Iii Christi! He would search
for her and her lover If he had to travel

With this determination he and Gigi

profession the seaside resorts.

drill and pole climbing proved a great
card, and Antonio rolled in wealth. But

PLAYMATE AND FRIEND.
A Vermont Farm Horse Who Was Guard
Ian of Calf

A Vermont Farm Horse Who Was Guard
Ian of Calf
On farm in Vermont there are two
horses and herd OF half n dozen cows.
The animals run together in the pas
ture and are on the most friendly terms.
One horse named Jack has n special at
lection for Betsy, n brindled COW, and
the two almost always Craze together.
Last spring Betsy had calf at her side,
and Jack seemed to regard the youngster
rs his own special care. Hitherto Jack
had been n very demure and dignified
horse, but the sportive tendencies of the
calf developed frisky mood on the part
of the horse. Jack and the calf used to
romp and play together good part of
the time, the former being very careful
not to injure his young companion. Free
quently Jack jumped over the bnck Of
the calf and then allowed himself to he
chased by the little fellow, from whom
he fled as though alarmed for his safety.
One day when the herd was in n dis
tant part of the pasture Jack suddenly
appeared at the farmhouse neighing
loudly and telling as plainly MS he could
that he wanted human assistance. He
would gallop furiously short distance
in the direction of the pasture, then
wheel suddenly and gallop back to tho
house, throwing his head high in the
air and ncighing with all his might.
The farmer called one of his men aud
the twain started in the direction indi-
Gated by the horse. When Jack saw that
his meaning was understood he capered
around with delight, rubbed his nose
against his masters cheek and then
went off at full gallop in the direction
of the herd, that was still out of sight.
Evidently he wanted to tell his four

RINGS OF BERLIN IRON.
Retaliation OF the r rench for an IndiGnlty
Perpetrated by the French.

Retaliat ion OF the rench for an IndiGnlty
Perpetrated by the French.
A ring Of Berlin IRON was sold
lately at q curiosity sale, but the price
it fetched was not stated. The ring
had certain interest, in view of the
determination of the French to cele-
brate the anniversary of Jena October
14) as n set-off to the recent German
celebration of Sedan. After that bat
tie Napoleon was capable of the in
credible meanness of rifiing the tomb
of Frederick the Great at Potsdam,
perhaps in revenge for that kings de-
feating the French at Rosbach; and
also of demanding from poor coun-
try, as Prussia was, u war indemnity
amo lnting TO over six million ster-
ling. Such was the impoverishment OF
the national treasury, that to make
up the required contribution, and
rid the Prussian soil of French SOL
diers, families gave up articles of
value, and ladies parted with their
gold rings. substituting for them rings
of Berlin iron, which metal from this
time obtained an historic Importance
in that country. At fashionable en-
tertainments anyone wearing gold.
and proving themselves thereby un-
patriotic, would have been given the
cold shoulder. 1t was like the dances
of Paris in 1705, to which no one was
admitted who was not wearing Grape
round the left arm, proof that a
member of the family had sacrificed
himself for the country. OF necessity,
the Berlin iron was confined to the up
per classes, as no one else had gold
rings to give, and it is only rarely one
comes into the market, so carefully
are preserved the proofs of their ances-
tors devotion to the fatherland.-

footed companions that help was COM
ing, as he soon returned and for the rest
of the way went along very quietly in adj
vance of the two men.
When the men reached the scene of
the trouble they found that Betsy and
her calf had somehow got into o bog or
quagmire. and were unable to extricatc
themselves. The supposition was that
the inexperienced calf had strayed into
the bog and Betsy, while trying to help
him out, had become involved. A rope
was needed to help the creatures to
hard ground, and in order to bring il as
soon as possible the farmer mounted on
Jacks bare back and without bride or
halter rode to the farmhouse to procure
it. Jack was high-spirited animal
and when under the saddle used TO
prance and show off, but on this occa-
sion he realized that it was no time for
play and went along as demurely as
possible. In due time Betsy and her
calf were extricated from their trouble,
and the farmer says that their equine
friend danced jig for joy.-Thonas

as thinkers of the first rank, who have
their dangers In common with other
philosophers.
