One OF the persons began to speak, and
recognized his voice. 1t was that Of the
man who had spoken to rue so kindly in
the churchyard. In his company were a
woman and young girl, whose face l
could not distinguish, but whose form
reminded me of Eunice. The father was
telling them of his meeting with me, and
of the manner in which I had met his
kind words.
He is 8 stranger here" the man said:
L have never seen his face before. In

so covered with tangled hair. Poor fell

''he was hungry"
i think not" was the fathers answer,
"or he would have behaved differently.
Hunger is sharp monitor, my dear. lie
was not hungry; he was defiant. He
looked to me more ike hunted animal
than human being"
"A man escaped from prison, perh aps,"
suggested the mother.
1T may be; if so, long time must
have elapsed since he made his escape:
otherwise his hair would not have been
so abundant. Before l spoke to him
noticed in his eyes look of singular re-
finement. and / am sure that at some pc
Rod of his life he has moved in a good
position. Perhaps he had happy home,
like ours; perhaps he had a wife and
child whom he loved as | love you. To
have enjoyed such happiness and to nave
lost it--ah, my dears, it is a sad thought!
If that poor mans heart were laid bare
before us we should see it throbbing with
suffering mayhap, but likely,
too, to have been created by error or
sin. Should | meet him again I will
strive to learn his story, and will help
him if he will let me-"

pity for me. | waited till the earth was

permitted it? In the peril of these
thoughts lay deeper danger than that

Terrific Fall of Hail Causes Damage
Throughout the City.
The most terrific hail storm that has
visited Chicago in years descended on
the city at noon Tuesday and hurled
great, jagged chunks of ice upon the
streets and buildings for neatly quar-
ter Of an hour Horses, driven frantic
by terror and pain caused by the stones,
ran away Windows were shattered.
Foliage in the parks and on the boule-
wards was destroyed. Many persons were
bruised and battered by the chunks of
ice Some of the stones were over an
inch in diameter
The downfall was heralded by brisk
gale which blew up shortly Before noon
and covered the sky with gray clouds.
Out of these there came first heavy
sheets of rain, which served as VAIN
ing. Then, in slanting streams, the hail
stones shot down, pounding against win
dows and on the streets IN terrific din.
First the storm was only an ordinary
one. with the drops Of hail small and
white Soon, however, these increased
to a formidable size. with a formation
of sharp, jagged points, fiat and circular.
Like a battery of canister they descend
ed, wreaking havoc TO windows, arc
lights, trees and foliage.
The storm was purely local. the wealth
