Several Times Fugitive, Only to be Re
turned to Prison.
Sam Hatcher, COL, who has made
his escape from the work house sew
ersl times during the past few years,
il again behind the bars, and it is to
be hoped that he will serve out his
sentence this time. Extra pains have
been taken by Manager Vaughan to
keep this prisoner inside the walls,
but he always manages to leave at
will, it seems. Hatcher was caught
in Henderson this time, and was
brought back few days ago and is
now in the work house. He was sent
to this institution in 1890, but soon
escaped and was not re-csptured un-
til some time in '92. After eleven
days of service he got away again
and enjoyed freedom for nearly two
years more. He was brought before
Judge Hanberry in Sept. lasG and
was given 1863 days. This time h.
was returned to serve the same nun
Der of days, but it remains to be se-n
how much of his sentence he will SAL
isfy before making another break fer

out with Mrs. Bartlett this afternoon
to present some of my letters of intro

afternoon. In the morning | have my
practicing and letters to write"
'Indeed-but all that is not anus

Why should she present letters of in
PRODUCTION? What was her business?
Why did she want business?
f"Perhaps it is interesting, which is
better than amusing. / came over to
try and find engagements as "A concert
singer though | fear 1t will be very
difficult"
AHA long-drawn ah,
II am rather anxious about it. You
see my father has spent II great deal of
money upon me, both in Paris and
Milan, and | want to make some now.
Are YOU fond of music Captain For
roster. and do you know any musical
people?'
II am deuccdly fond of music. but
must acknowledge that | only igno-
rantly worship. The only musical
parsonage | know is a DR., Delaney. He
was in my regiment. He has retired
now, and lives somewhere in the north.
He used to sing Irish melodies and
Jacobite ditties very well, indeed"
"He was not professional
"No."
"Ah--" she evidently dismissed De-
laney.
Though | am no judge, may | ven-
ture to ask for a song?" asked For
rester.
You would really like to hear me
sing"
Beyond everything"
"Thcn you must tell me truly if you
think my singing would please English
people"
II shall be brutally frank" said For
rester.
Yes, pray dow She rose and went
to an open piano on which lay a guam
tty of music. Il shall sing you lit
tie Neapolian Barcarolle," she said,
quite one of the peoples songs"
The accompaniment initiated guitar.
Her voice was contralto, wonderfully
rich and full, to come from so slight
u form. She sang with spirit and eX-
preston, putting Il graceful espieglerie
into her rendering of the verses
"If the public don't like that they will
be hard to pleasew exclaimed Forester
ferVently.
You like it? Yes, | see you do! And
| suppose you represent the ordinary
cultivated publicn and she turned to
look at him. FORESTER was greatly
fascinated, she was so frank, so unaf-
fected So in earnest about her work
and transparently simple into the bar

Their talk flowed easily. until inter-
rupted by the entrance of Mrs. Bartlett,
who sailed in attired in Il trailing black
silk afternoon dress, a cap of black
and gold lace with streamers of red
ribbon and a 'pincenes with a long
handle hung by Il ribbon from her neck.
Her nose looked even more prominent
without the background of a bonnet.
Smiles wrcathed her lips and satisiac-
tion beamed in her eyes which were
something the color of Il boiled goose

rupted herself. why, it is the gentle
