Then the Corregedor continued.
And you have had Jose with you
many years as a servant?"
Yes. He was the husband of my
nurse in Nichtheroy. He has been
with my family ever since I was born"
You could trust him?"
Il would trust him with my life"
yet how should one explain how he
escaped the closet after he had been
locked in by the Senior Sebastiao?"
Perhaps the Father Pedro may
tell" said the Donna Eugenia
The Father Pedro was called to
testify.
May it be possible to explain" ask
ed the Corregedor, how the negro
could escape from the closet after ne
had been locked in?"
THAT is not possible" said the
priest. Yet 1 have heard it said by
those who knew the Marquis of Pom
bal that he had told of how the Bra
lillian negroes are cunning, and know
charms, and how they bewitch that

the Corregedor Amilio. that IN this

Other witnesses were examined,

When you are shooting" that IS,
planning the edge of piece of work,
the thumb of your left hand should
rest upon the top of the plane, two OF
the fingers upon the side and two on
the bottom. These last two fingers
serve as a gauge, regulate the plane

The advice given in regard to pres

this as in the former case, or you will

When the iron needs sharpening
grasp the middle of the stock firmly
with the left hand, placing the thumb
in the mouth or opening. Hit the
stock on the front with a mallet. This
will loosen the wedge and release the
iron. All that remains then is to
loosen the screw and take off the
back iron.
When the iron is thus taken out to
be sharpened do not drive the wedge

The Heritor lived in the most beauti-

a merchant of great distinction and

A crowd gathered. wondering what it
all meant.
Presently the Heritor himself came
from the house. In his hand he held

once, but she. poor girl, had died of
the fever in Rio in the very year that
the little daughter came to her, and
when, three years later, it was said
that there could be no escape if the
people staid in the houses in Mich
theroy, the captain took the second
Eugenia upon a voyage with him, that
the fever might not take her, too,
away. So il came about that for
years and years. or until Eugenia was
IA, she went with her father in his
great ship over strange seas and to the
lands Of which she dreamed afterward
and people with queer-lookiag men Of
her own imagination, for in her voy-
aging she had but little GLIMPSE of
the real life and of the men themselves
who dWelt in the PARKWAY countries.
And this was the way of her educa -
ton: She was taught all that her
father knew of books. She knew all
that he could teach her of the manner
in which ships are guided over track
less oceans. Sometimes when the
weather was not too rough. she used
to stand at the stern of the gig and
repeat the orders Of the captain, her
father, to the men forward and they
obeyed her, these great brawny sail
ors, and gave her the name of the
Admiral. They built for her wonder
full model ships, and carved marvellous
things out of cocoanut shells and out
of the Calabash.
Then when the slave trade of the
African coast became the best BUSH
ness in which a merchant ship could
engage the captain brought negroes
to Brazil and to Cuba and to Amer
lea and became a very rich man. All
the money that he made in the slav-
ing he left to Eugenia, when he died,
but this was not until she had been
married for a year to Sebastiao and
had gone with all the slaves which her
husband owned to live in Horta,
which is in the island of Fayal.
For a year all went we'll enough.

and his business was of curious ma

was to be learned from them.
The neighborS were called and ex-
amined. They knew the Donna Eu-
genia, because they had seen her in
the balcony in the days when the sun
came glowing into the Rua Sac Joao.
She had said "bom dia," perhaps-no
more than that. ever.
Sometimes they had seen her leave
the house, but always with Jose and
Carmen, the maid, and always hooded
with the great capote. Amilio had
known her, yes. He had seen her go
into the shops on days of the feaStS,
when she would have sweetmeats and

Then they called the Donna Eu-

Porto PIN.
You must know that the Porto PIN
is a bay, a round bay which sets IN
from the sea and makes a deep in
dentation into the coast line of the
island. Here in the old days, the
ships came when they were wrecked,
or had been wrecked, for sometimes
the shippers who had an eye for the
dollars and little feeling for the crew
and for their lives. used to take their
ships to sea-sometimes from South
ampton or Lisbon or Valencia-and
when they were near the island they
would cruise up and down, up and
down for days off the coast. Then,
when the fogs came. and the clouds
came down over the sea from Pico
and from the Caldeira, they would run
them sharp into Porto PIN, and there
would the boats lie-wrecked on the
Jagged rocks which rise sullenly al
most to the very surface of the water.
And to-day. even after a century, if
one comes down from the Monte da
Guia, round by the Spanish forts, and
looks out through the City Gate, he
may still see the timbers and the sea
washing through them. And when
these ships were wrecked the men
who had written the insurance would
lose much of money. and the shippers
and those who were in their favor
would make an equal sum-perhaps a
bit less, for mouths may be closed by
money-but still it served.
That, then. was the business In
which Sebastiao traded. He wrecked
ships, and after a time, together with
the wreckng and the whaling, he
came to be one of the powers of the
city and was n very rich man.
1t was during the long nights and
| the long days when he was watching
for the ships to come into port that
| Eugenia was left much alone, and it
was during that time that Amilio
came to love her. for across the street

DAINTY MODERN.
CLOSETS.

This is the day of the dainty closet.
The dainty woman has so decided. The
architects are now giving as much
attention to the closet as to the fam
lily sitting room, and when they have
done, the woman herself puts on the
finishing touches.
City apartments and even flats, as
we'll as houses, show closets that are
quite as perfect in arrangement as
any other room in the house. even
though they are small. In one cor
ner of the modern closet is a basin
with hot and cold water faucets, and
over the basin an electrict light
button.
The walls are quite as daintily tint
ed as those of the drawing room, and
the woodwork is usually enamelled.
If there is room for a chest of draw
ers, it is white like the woodwork,
and has brass knobs and trim
mings.
Not an inch of space is wasted in
the modern closet. On the side which
is devoted to clothing is a shallow
the wall, and runs the length of the
closet. 1t, too, is painted white and
has brass hinges.
Several enamelled boards are placed
along the wall, the lower one being
at a convenient height for hooks to
be inserted for clothing. These shelves
are useful for hat boxes and
other odds and ends of the ward
robe.
This arrangement of the shoe box
and shelves makes a little wardrobe
by itself, and it is quite the fad to
keep the dust away from the gowns
by hanging dainty curtains before the
lower shelf Sometimes the shelves
are left bare, but they often are made
more attractive in appearance by put
ting crepe paper on them, letting two
or three inches extend below the
shelf. The paper is tackled here and
there with a brass-headed thumb
tack, and between tacks is generally
pulled out to make it look like a ruff
fie. The yellow and pink chrysanthe-
mum. the wild rose or the violet papers
are especially dainty for this purpose,
and are so durable that they will not
need to be replenished more than twice
a years
The Savannah morning news., 1904-01-03

Crepe paper is also used to cover
the hangers, in place of silk or satin.
A dozen hangers at cents a piece,
roll of crepe paper, a few yards OF
number five ribbon to wrap the hook,
a sheet of cotton for padding, and a
pot of glue are all the accessories re-
CURED to make the hangers more at
tractiVe.
1t is astonishing what one roll of
crepe paper will do. If the closet is
not too large, it will cover several
shelves, hangers, and a band box or
two. Instead of the hat boxes, bear
ing on the covers the trade marks OF
various milliners, something akin to
the charming old band boxes of our
grandmothers' days are made.
An ordinary hat box is lined, cover
and all. with pale pink, pale blue, yell
low or white tissue paper, merely
pasted at the edges. If pink is chosen
for the lining, pink chrysanthemum
paper is used for the outside.A broad
satin ribbon to each side of the cover.
joining in the center and tying in a
big bow on top. finishes the box.
If the box is very large and admits
of more than one hat, milliner stand
ards are placed inside to set the hats
on, so feathers and flowers will not
be mussed as the weight of the nat
rests upon them.
Instead of ugly pasteboard boxes
which bear the labels of the articles
they contained when purchased, all
thee boxes which hold corsets, odds
and ends of laces. and other useful
things, are covered with figured crepe
paper. This covering not only beau
titles the box, but strengthens the
corners, so the receptacle will last
twice as long.
If the closet is not large enough
for a shoe box, shoe and slipper bags
are used for the door, with large
enough slips to admit of shoe trees as
wall.
Above all things else. the up-to-date
closet has soiled clothes hamper or
laundry bag. and a stocking bag. the
latter, of course. complete with darn
ing needles and cottons to do the

or machine oil rubbed on the sole of
your plane before using it will make
it work more smoothly.
Now as to sharpening the plane
iron, and what is said here with
regard to it will apply to chisels as
well.
If you examine the chisel or plane
iron belonging to a good carpenter
you will see at the cutting end
of the tool a long bevel formed
by the grindstone and much
smaller, brighter one at a more
abrupt angle made by the oilstone.
The angles forming these two faces
should always appear distinct. If the
two faces are ground rounding and
not fiat. so that the separation be-
tween them ceases to appear, the tool
so sharpened is quite unfit for good
work
In grinding a plane iron place your
right hand on the unsharpened end of
the iron with the forefngers extended
downwards.

straighten it. Let the stone revolve

So the Senior was dead. Jose, the
only man who had entrance to the
house, other than Senior himself,
had been locked in his dungeon at the
foot of the stairs. The Donna Eu-
gena was in her room, sleeping. No
other living soul had been seen near
the house upon the evening of the
murder.
That he had been murdered there
could be no doubt. Lying near him
was found a sharp ak, such as the

great wound which showed how the
