CHAPTER XIV.
When Love Meets Love.

Before the time Of the COnfessor,
the West Minister was little more than
the Monastery chapel, in which the
presence of the parish folk, if not for
hidden, was still in no way encourag-
ed. To-day, when the Lord Ivarsdale
came unnoticed into the dim light
while the last strains of the Vesper
service were rising, there were no
more than score of worshipers scat
tered through the north aisle. After a
searching glance around him, the
Etheling took up his station in the
shelter of pillar.
Little danger-or hope-is there
that l can miss her." he told himself,
III she is indeed here, as the page
said"
Tender as the cleaning Of a sum-
mer day was the shade in the great
nave, with the ever-burning candles to
remind one of the eternal stars. From
the Threats of the hidden choir, the
last note swelled rich and full, to
roll out over the pillared aisles in
wave of vibrant sound and pass away
in sigh of ineffable sweetness under
the rafters.
AS he bowed his head in the holy
hush that followed, the hush of souls
before a wordless benediction, some
Of Sebert's bitterness gave way to a.
great compassion. What were we all
when all was told, but wrong-dOers
and mourners? Why should one hold
anger against another? In pity for
himself and the whole world, his heart
ached within him, as a rustling of
gowns and shutting Of feet told that
the worshipers had risen from their
knees and were coming toward him.
The young mobiles glance leaped
them completely in it's haste to reach
those who followed-the knot of
women, fluttering and rustling and
preening like flock of birds. But
the bird he sought was not of their
number. He stared blindly at the
pilgrim as the wanderer shuffied past,

muttering and beating his breast.
Only one figure followed the penitent,
and If that should not be she! Even
though he felt that it could not be
even though he hoped it was not
hoping and fearing, dreading and long
ing, his eyes advanced to meet the
last of tbs worshipers.
Only one figure, but all at once it
was as though the whole world were
before him!
Coming slowly toward him out of
the soft twilight, with eyes downcast
and hands folded nun-like before her,
the daughter Of Erode did not look
out of place amid blue wreaths of in
Cense and starry altar tapers.
Standing there gazing at her, Won
derful change came over the Lord OF
Iyarsdale. Neither then nor ever after
could he understand how it happened,
but. all at once the barrier that cir
cumstances had raised against her fell
like the city walls before the trumpet
blast, until not one stone was left
knowing how or why-loOking at her,
be believed in her; and his manner,
which a moment before had been con-
strained and hesitating, became ease
full with perfect confidence. Without
knowing how or why he knew it, he
knew that she had never sQuandered
her love on the Jotun, neither had she
20 nf he
host. He knew her for his dream
love, sweet and true and fine; and
he stepped out Of the shadow and
knelt before her, raising the hem of
her cloak to his lips.
Most gentle lady, will you give a
beggar alms?" he said with tender
Eghtness.
The sound of his voice was like a
stone cast into still water. The rapt
peace of her look was broken into an
eddying of conflict emotions. Amaze
ment was there and swift joy, which
gave way almost before it could be
named, to something approaching
dread, and that in turn yielded place
to wide-eyed wonder. With her hands
clasped tightly over her breast she
stood looking down at him.
my lord?" she faiterad.
AS one who spreads out his store,
he held out his palms toward her
"Randalin, have sought you to add
to the payment of my debt the one
thing that in my blindness held back
II have come to add my true love
to the rest I lay before you"
As flower toward the sun, she
seemed to sway toward him, then
drew back, her sweet mouth trem-
bling softly. 81 want not your
pity" she said, brokenly.
StiIl kneeling before her, he pos
sessed himself of her hands and drew
them down to his lips. rs it thus, on
his knee, that one offers pity?" he
said. Holding the hands fast, he
rose and stood before her "Heart be-
loved OF my heart, you were merciless
TO read the truth before. Look again
and take care that you read me as
fairly now"

Joseph Jefferson says that during

Joseph Jefferson says that during
his long stage career he was never
associated with any one showing un-
due familiarity except one individual
named Bagley, his property man for
several seasons. The man was val
liable in his way, and so Mr.. Jefferson
tolerated his disagreeable manners
until one night in Baltimore. The
property man got very drunk in the
afternoon, and in the evening paid
his way into gallery seat. Mr..
Jefferson was playing RIP Van Win
kle." The angry Gretchen had just
driven poor, destitute Rip from the
cottage, when Rip turned, and, with
a world Of pathos, asked: Den
hat no interest in der house?" The
theatre was deathly still, the aud
fence half in tears, when Baggley's
cracked voice was heard in response:
"Only eighty per cent, Joe, old boy;
only eighty per cent" He lost his job
on the spot.

AFTER ANOTHER GIBRALTAR.

ST. Petersburg. Dec S.--According
to a story current in high circles here,
Russia's efforts some time ago to
negotiate the purchase of seven Ar
gentine and Chilean warships have
had a crrionS sequel. The two South
American countries declined 70 sell
the vessels direct e Russia, fearing
the possibility Of ,eing subsequently
held liable To Jay Japan heavy dam
ages, as Great Britain was in the
Alabama case. At that time the ques-
ton of selling To a third party as an
intermediary was discussed, and the
possibility IF Turkey playing the role
was suggested But Argentine and
Chile steadfa silly declined to enter
tain any proposition without guaran-
tee against future liability.
According to the story, Russia then
abandoned the project, whereupon
Great Britain stepped in, offering TIC
advance the money to Turkey to buy
the ships in return for certain con-
cessions which would permit Great
Britain to erect second Gibraltar on
the coast of Yemen, opposite Perrin
island which would give Great Brit
ain control of the lower entrance to
the Red sea Negotiations between
Great Britain and Turkey along these
lines are said to be now progressing.

Port Arthur Squadron Can Not Aid
Pacific SuIadron

TOXIC, Dec. 10.-In disabling the
Russian fleet at Port Arthur, pre-
Guiding the possibility of its being
able to reinforce the Russian second
Pacific squadron, the Japanese have
accomplished the main object of the
desperate assault against the fort
ress which they have been making
for the past three months. There is
now a strong probability that
while continuing the siege. they will
avoid losses of the magnitude al
ready attending their efforst, and, in
stead Of assaulting, will rely on starv-
ing out the garrison until II is finahy
captured.
