As CASTOR strolled out on the lawn with
his bride after the banquet they found a
seat in a secluded spot amid the shrub
berry
MY sweet wifev' he exclaimed.
My husbandr' she whispered as they
tenderly clasped hands.
Tell me now who was the author of all
those lies about me 10 your father?"
Why ask it, dear? You know Allan

THE bastard. 1 was sure of it from
the first. Well, he had the facts in that
last letter, didn't he?"
Yes" she answered with a smile.
They rose to return to the mansion,
reused by the stroke of midnight from
the clock in the tower of the city hall.
From tonight, my dear" he said, with
enthusiasm, you will share with me all
the honors and responsibilities Of public
life"
mo, my love, do not desire any part in
public life except through you. You are
my world. l ask no higher gift of God
than your love, whether you live in a
governors mansion, or the humbliest cot
tage. 1 desire no career save that of a
wife-your wife-she had her face on his
breast as little sob caught her voice.
"and l would not change places with the
proudest queen that ever wore a CROWN
She said this looking up into his face
through a mist of tears.
With trembling lips and dimmed eyes
he stopped and kissed her as he replied
And 1 had rather be the husband of
such a woman than to be the ruler of the

ROYALTY In ssIaIum Is Most UnIOveIy


If there is time and place on earth
where passion and hatred should retire out
of sight and give room to gentler feelings
and more placid behavior. it is when
death claims the mother and the father
and daughter stand beside the corpse be-
fore the last funeral rites are performed
But the king of the Belgiums was so
consumed with rage when his daughter.
Stephanie. appeared beside her mothers
remains that he flung himself into out
rageous passion and ordered his child out
of the palace.
If he is not crazy he IS besotted with
seIfshness and contemplate audacity- Let
us be ready to give him the benefit Of the
doubt. and conclude that his mind is I'M
settled. The poor girl married the first
time to please his ambition. and horrible
ending there was to the match. If her
spouse was heir to the throne of Austria.
Prince Rudolph died a most ignoble sui
eide. under a cloud of martial inadelity
which is still one of the horrors CT his
native country, in recalling his blasted,
sin-swept life.
Stephanie married to suit herself the last
time. and her father has been in tow
ering rage ever since at what he terms
nisalliance. He is in an ugly temper con-
tinuaIly. and before his queen wife has
been in her coffin week 1t IS noised about
that he intends to marry. to provide an
heir to the throne. and fatally disinherit
his daughter.
When we read of such immoderate cal
lousness to the amenities Of domestic life
and disregard for the usual affection that
pertains to the relation Of a parent and
child. this hot-headed old tyrant would
appear to be much more of a candidate
for the lunatic asylum than a proper Oc-
cupant of a throne.
What a spectacle he is making of his
poor old carcass before the civilized
world,
How soon the leveler, death. will rid
the world and his people Of the unnatural
father we may not know, Of course, but
it is easy to predict there may be very
few tears shed over his own dead body
when that event occurs. About the best
thing he will ever do for Belgium is to

says Senator Depew on landing from a

The people in Europe think OF Mr..

" The Leop0rdS Spots
CHAPTER XVI.


THE END OLA MODERN VILLAIN.
Two days after McLeods flight from
Hambright the press dispatches flashed
from New York a startling two-column
account Of the attempted ASSASSINATION
of the Hon. Allan Mcleod, the Republi-
can leader of North Carolina, In the
terrific campaign in progress, and that he
was compelled to fee from the state to
save his life.
CASTOR was elected governor by the
largest majority ever given candidate
for that Office in the history OF North
Carolina.
Mcleod was promptly rewarded for his
long career OF villainy by an appointment
as cur ambassador 10 one of the republics
of South America. and the senate at once
confirmed him. The salary attached to
his office was $4,000, and his dream OF a
life Of case and. luxury had come at
last.
For six months he had been quietly go
ing to Boston paying the most ardent
court to Miss Susan Walker, whom ne
had met al her college at Independence.
She was a matured spinster now APP
preaching sixty years of age, and worth
s5.O0O.0c0 In her own name.
He had easy sailing from the first. He
Joined her church IN Boston, after
brilliant profession OF religion that moved
Miss Walker to tears. for he had told
her II was her love that had opened MS
eyes. And II was true.
Mcleod timed his last visit to Boston so
that he arrived the day the city was ring
ing with the sensation of his attempted
assassination. and the desperate fight he
was making to uphold law and order IN
the south.
When Miss Walker read that article in
her paper she resolved to marry him inn
mediately. She gave Mcleod wedding
nresent of a half million dollars. He wept
for joy and gratitude. ard kissed her with
a fervor that satisfied her hungry heart
that he was the one peerless lover of the

When he went to France recently the shah OF
Persia suffered with toothache and so dentist
was summoned to remove the offending tooth.
Bu., like less exalted mortals, the shah, when
he found himself face to face with the dentist,
discovered that his toothache had disappeared
and so absolutely refused to be operated on.
However, his majesty declared that he did
not wish the dentist TO lose his time, and so COM
manded that tooth should be extracted from
each of his suite. He said this with his eyes

In making a tour of the Transvaal to ac-

following the example which Sir George Grey
set in South Africa many years ago. 1t was
a red-letter day in the history of a household
on the veldt when Grey called and took coffee
and spent half hour in talk The chair he
sat on was sure to be preserved as a memento
But this regard for him had a very amusing
contrast in an experience of his. at a little up
country hotel When the bill was being paid
one Of Grey's companions drew attention TO a
rather excessive charge which the landlord put
against the eggs he had served to the party at
breakfast. Grey, who liked his little joke, said

EXPIRES. CLEVELAND
Pres;des at Berean Manual Training
School Public Meeting.

Philadelphia, Dec. 12-Former Presi-
dent Cleveland presided, Thursday
night, at public meeting in aid of the
Rerean Manual Training School, an in
stitution which aims to give members
of the negro race the benefits Of an
industrial education. The meeting was
ATTENDED by prominent jurists, educa-
tors and business men. Mr.. Cleveland
was the principal speaker and Booker
T. Washington OF the Tuskegee Insti-
tute. also made ar address.
Mr. Cleveland's address was in part
as follows:
1T has often occurred to me that
ever since we have become a nation the
American people have almost constant
~ been confronted with large prob
lens. more or less perplexing and di-
rectly affecting the political. industrial
and social phases of our national well
fare. We seem to have contented no
ton that whatever dangers press upon
us. and whatever obstacles are to be
sur:nounted we are able because we
able and that because we have thus
far escaped threatening perils, hap
py-go-lucky reliance on continued good
fortune will avail us to the end of the
chapter.
1T is foolish for us to blind our eyes
to the fact that more should be done
to improve the condition of our negro
population and it should be entirely
plain to all of US that the sooner this
is undertaken the sooner will serious
duty be discharged and the more surely
VIII we guard ourselves against future
trouble and danger"

A $25O,O00 FIRE
In the Seven-S Story Chase Build
ing at Worcester.
FiremenNarrowIy Escape Going Down
With the Falling Floors.
Several Occupants Led to Safety
Through Dense smoke.

Worcester, Mass. Dec. PA fire
which caused damage estimated at
$250.0O0 broke out in the seven-story
Chase building, A Front street, in this
city at 4.30 o'clock. Thursday
afternoon. The heaviest losers
We're c. r. Sherer & Co.,
whose loss is placed at 100000. and w.
j. Woods Co. mems clothing dealer,
which suffered loss estimated at $780,,
600. The building, owned by r. c. Tay-
Tor of Worcester, was damaged to the
extent of $4,000. A general alarm was
turned in as soon as the engineers
reached the fire and it was five hours
before the firemen felt any degree Of
confidence that they had got the best
Of the flames.
The firemen had to encounter a dense
smoke rising from the store room of
the clothing store, and fully a dozen
were overcome. Assistant Engineer
Edward l.. James was struck on the
head with an axe while at work in the
burning building and was taken to his
home in a police ambulance. John Luz
by. hoseman of engine 2, was so over
come by the smoke that he was taken
to City hospital in a serious condition.
The fire originated in the basement
of the building occupied by the Woods
Co. as a store room. After being con-
fired here for two hours, it ran up
through the walls to the fourth story
which is occupied by Sherer & Co.
Tons of water were poured into the
building.
The building above the first floor is
used mostly for offices. The occupants
were warned in time to escape before
there was danger of the fire getting at
them, although the police were called
on to assist several through the smoke.
Two floors of the building which had
been weakened by the fire gave way
under the weight of the water and a
number of firemen narrowly escaped
going down with them.
The loss on the building is covered
by insurance. The insurance on the
stock of the two concerns most heavily
damaged will about equal their loss.
