The Dogs of COnstantinOple.

1 never saw so much mud, such IN
speakably filthy streets and so many
dogs as Constantinople can boast, but
nowhere have 1 seen them described in
a satisfactory way-so that you knew
what to expect, 1 Irean. In the first
place, they hardly look like dogs. They
have woolly tails like sheep. Their
eyes are dull. sleepy and utterly devoid
of expression. Constantinople dogs
have neither masters nor brains. No
body wants to adopt an idiot. They
are of course mongrels of the most
hopeless type. They are yellowish. with
thick, short, woolly coats, and mach
fatter than you expect to find them.
They walk like a funeral procession.
Never have 1 seen one frisk or even
wag his TAIL Everybody turns out for
them. They sleep-from II to 20 of
them-on a single pile Of garbage and
never notice either men or each other
unless a dog which lives in the next
street trespasses. Then they eat him
up. for they are jackals as we'll as
dogs, and they are no more epicures
than ostriches.-Lilian Bell in Won

THE CONVERSION

copyright, 1899, by Robert Bar.1
In the ample, stone paved courtyard
of the Schloss Grunewald, with its
mysterious, bubbling spring in the cen
ter, stood the black baron beside his
FESTIVE horse, both equally eager to be
away. Round the baron were grouped
his IS knights and their saddled charg-
ers, all waiting the word to mount.
The warder was slowly opening the
huge gates that hung between the two
round entrance towers of the castle, for
it was never the baron's custom to ride
out at the head of his men until the
great leaves of the strong gate fell full
apart and showed the green landscape
beyond. The baron did not propose to
ride unthinkingly out and straightway
fall into an ambush. He and his 16
knights were the terror of the country
side, and many there were who would
have been glad TO venture a bow shot
at him had they dared. There seemed
to be some delay about the opening of
the gates and great chattering of IN
derlings at the entrance, as if some
thing unusual had occurred, whereupon
the rough voice of the baron roared out
to know the cause that kept him wait
ing, and every one scattered, each to
his one affair. leaving only the warder,
who approached his master with fear
ON his face.
"My lord, /" he began, when the baron
had shouted out what the devil allied
him, ''there has been nailed against
the outer gate, some time in the night,
a parchment with characters written
thereon"
''Then tear it down and bring it to
me, cried the baron. ''What's all this
to do about a bit of Parchment"
The warder had been loath to NEEDLE
with it, fearing that witchcraft which
he knew pertained to all written char
acters, but he feared the black baron
fown even more than the fiends who
had undoubtedly nailed the document
ON the gate, for he knew no man in all

at is from our holy father the pope"
that well cowed district would have
the daring to approach the castle, even
at night, much less NEEDLE with the
gate or any other of the belongings of
the Baron Won Grunewald; so, breath
ing request to his patron saint (his
neglect of whom he now remembered
with remorse) for protection, he tore
the document from its fastening and
brought it trembling to the baron. The
knights crowded round as Won Grune
.wald held the parchment in his hand,
bending his dark brows upon it, for it
conveyed no meaning to him. Neither
the baron nor his knights could read.
''What foolery, think you, is this?'
he said, turning to the knight nearest
him. ga defiance2''
The knight shook his head 81 am

the baron was puzzled; then he quickly
bethought himself Of the one person in
the castle who could read
Bring hither old Father Gottlieb,
he commanded. and two of those wait
ing by ran in haste toward the scullery
of the place, from which they presently
emerged, dragging after them an old
man, partly in the habit of a monk and
partly in that of a scullion, who wiped
his hands on the coarse apron that was
tied around his waist as he was hur-
ried forward. ''Here, good father, ex-
cellent cook and humble servitor, l
trust your residence with us has not led
you to forget the learning you put to
such poor advantage in the monastry
Of Monnonstein. Canst thus construe
this for us? Is it in good. honest Ger
man or bastard Latin p
'tIt is in Latin" said the captive
monk, glancing at it in the others
hand.
t'Then translate it for us, and quick

Father Gottlieb took the parchment
handed to him by the baron, and as his
eye scanned it more closely he bowed
his head and made the sign of the cross
upon his breast.
Cease that mummery,' rOared the
baron, land read without more wait:

lit is from our holy father the

mental position for the moment and be-
coming once more the scholar of the
monastery. The sense of his captivity
faded from him as he realized that the
long arm Of the church had extended
within the impregnable walls of that
tyfannical castle.
''Good. And what has our holy ia
ther the pope to say to us2 Demands
he the release of our excellent scullion,

The bent shoulders Of the old monk
atraiphtened his dim eve briohtened
and his voice rang clear within the
echoing walls of the castle courtyard.

heavy open leaves of the gates stood
the warder and his assistants, scarcely
breathing, ready to close the gates

Still chanting, led by the abbot in
his robes of Office, the monks slowly
marched into the deserted courtyard,
while Siegfried refined his horse close
inside the entrance.

clash of 6agons upon the oaken table.
At last there came down the broad
stair and out into the court figure in
the habit of monk, who hurried shut
f1ingly across the stones to the grim row
of brown robed men. He threw himself
sobbing at the feet of the tall abbot.
''Rise, my son, and embrace me,

When Father Gottlieb did SO, the
other whispered in his ear.

Finally all riot died away in the hall

ceased silence reigned supreme. and the
