table and, guided by the servant, went
to the place where the pyre had been
set up in the court of ruin. On the
pyre was the body of the old prince,
guarded by heather IindoOs.
Il have scheme" said Brackett-"a
real out and out Yankee scheme. We'll
conceal ourselves in what Is left of that
apartment on the other side of the wall
from the pyre. 1t isn't more than thir
ty feet from the pyre to the room. Sup
pose we dig a tunnel to point beneath
the pyre, remove the material from un-
der where the widow will lie and let
her down and out before the flames
touch her"
Good" said every one, and the Hin
doc servant VS. dispatched for spades
and wheelb, row. With will they
set to work, all of them young strong
men, and in three hours a spade broke
through the ground and struck the
wood of the pyre. Then commenced the
more difficult work of locating the re-
quired spot and removing that part of
the pyre directly under the spot where
the widow would lie. However, it was
at last accomplished, the wooden plat
form being left supported by pieces Of
timber that could be removed at will.
In the morning there was great din
of the funeral procession approaching.
A troop Of Brahman priests, their
shaved heads uncovered, carrying torch
eS, followed by Il cOnCOurSe of natives,
came bowling into the court. In their
midst was the young widow. The party
Of Anglo-SaXons had pushed the NOR
tar from chink in the wall, through
which they watched the proceedings.
At the foot of the pyre the widow was
stripped of all her clothing except
fine silken undergarment. To see the
young thing stand there. looking about
her with a bewildered stare, then at
the pyre with shuddcr, was enough
to move stOuter hearts than the Eng
lish and Americans. Bracket took one
look through the peephole, then dashed
into the tunnel and to the bottom of
the pyre, where he stood ready. When
the widow ascended the pyre and lay
down and n cloud of smoke concealed
the bodies, the signal was given by
British officer at the peephole. Remov-
ing the supports, Bracket lowered the
living body. receiving it in his arms.
The widow, frightened at this unex-

pccted occurrence as we'll as the flames,
swooned and was easily carried through
the tunnel to the ruined chamber.
When she came to, hand was clapped
over her mouth, and she was forced to
remain quiet.
1t was not till night that the party,
dressing the widow in the costume of
their servant, Bob Bracket sacrificing
his beard to conceal her features,
dared to leave their place of conceal
ment and return to their quarters.
The widow, knowing that If found she
would be spurned by her people and
compelled to again so through the
dread ordeal to its completion, begged
her liberators to take her out of the
country. As none Of them could go
where he liked except Bracket. he
was assigned the post Of honor. 1t
was on long journey on P. and o.
steamer to England, sitting with her
daily on deck, talking of her past life
and telling her of the western world,
that Bracket lost his heart. The con-
sequence was that when they reached
England the widow of the Prince OF
ringpore became Mrs. Bob Bracket.
On the arrival a few weeks later Of
the steamer Lucania at New York
Rrackett's girl friends, who had heard
of his marriage with an Indian, were
on the dock awaiting him.
"A hundred yards of lace, please"
81 didn't lose the bet, which was
that my wife would be black. She is
copper cOlOred. Nevertheless l am SO
happy that I am ready to pay" And
he drew from his pocket bundle of
the finest quality of lace. Then they
oil dined together and Bob presented
his bride. EDNA CARROLL.

black. Bob offered to take IL hundred
such bets, but his tcascrs We're quite
content with one.
Six months after his departure Bob
was in India. He was dining one
evening with party of Americans
and British officers when the subject
of the suttee or burning OF widows
with the bodies of their husbands was
introduced.
"That's stopped now," said British
captain, by treaty with the British
government"
"Sahib.' said an Indian servant,
there will be a suttee tomorrow morn
ing ut sunrise The young widow of
the prince Of Pingpore will be burned
with her husband"
The deuce you say!'
The servant being questioned said
that the prince was very old man,
who had married the wife when she
was twelve years old. She was now
fifteen. The party became much in
tercsted, but as there was no English
garrison near it did not seem that any
thing could be done to prevent this
outrage against civilization. Bracket
proposed that the party constitute
themselves posse to do so. The
Englshmen were hard to move until
they had had a number of brandy and
sodas. Then they chimcd i'll with
alacrity. The party arose from the
