been cursed with hereditary blindness
and who had at last seized the cow
ards refuge rather than face the trag-
edy of his Inheritance.
He shuddered slightly, for the story
had made its peculiar appeal to him.
He, too, knew the sick horror OF sucn
a heritage. His grandfather and great
grandfather had spent their last years
in darkness, and, although his own
father had escaped, he knew too many
victims of the caprice of atavism to
hold himself exempt.
The chill air of the December night
struck his face as he opened his win
dow and he shook off his momentary
depression as the little refrain, with
all it meant, sang once once more in
his brain-"to-morrow is New Years
day"
At length he fell asleep, his eyes
resting ON the cheerful little point OF
flame in the night-lamp which shons
through the open door of his dress
ing-room full on his pillow.

snapped the trees beside the mars
window with a crash that reused the
sleeper to a sitting posture.
Gazing, unknowing. into the black
ness around him, with his first con-
seriousness he raised his hand to his
eyes to brush away the veil of sleep.
The action woke him to sudden real
ization of the intense darkness before
him. Where was the light that always
met him from the faithful little night
lamp? Where was the gray out-of-
doors that meant early morning?
Blackness, thioH mpenetrable, closed
in on him. God could it be that the
light still buIned-but not for him?
That the sun was rising-but to him
it would always be night?
He slid from his bed and gropel
his way to the window, straining his
eyes vainly to perceive the slightest
outline in the formless darkness.
Then terror gripped him close and its
panic babe him scream-fy-escape
from this fiend of night that had fold
ed him in her infinite embrace.
With one last effort at control be
reached for the familiar MATCHBOX
and struck one of the tiny torches
that meant lifelong night or day to
him. He heard the scratch and snap.
but not spark of light rewarded his
agonized effort to see. The match
fell from his nerveless fingers and
the cold sweat of despair soaked his
night-clo thes with its dank chill.
His whole future was silhouetted
before him, a black shadow against
the sunlight of the world. His eye
sight gone, his career ruined, his great
book still unwritten-only life's empty
she'll left to mock him. Tomorrow
would begin the drear, black process
sion of days, stretching like pall-bear-
ers to the grave. Tomorrow! oh.
God! the irony of it--to-morrow was
the new year! An impotent sob rose
choking in his throat. Was this to be
| his home-coming-led like blind beg
gar. to be burden where he had
| hoped to help7
I All his mans courage and fierce re-
sistance to Fate rose in him. He
would never yield TO that. Rather
With his sudden energy, his fingers
closed on one remaining match and
instinctively, with the vigor born OF
desperation, he struck it along the
wall. A quick blue flame sprang to
life and showed the open door, the
extinguished lamp, the headless match
at his feet-objects so meaningless be-
fore, so fraught with the JOY OF lifts
now
With a cry of relief the man sprang
to the gas-jet, and as the room was
flooded with the blessed light he sank
trembling to his knees, and the pells
OF midnight sang in his ears: To-day

Funny ANYWAY.

William Winter, TIE dramatic critic,
is thought by some to write the worst
hand of any man living, There may
have been giants in the past, men
like Horace Greeley, who surpassed
him, but TO one his equal remains.
Some years ago Mr.. Winter was
travelling in Scotland and having had
many amusing experiences, wrote an
account of them TO r. H. Stoddard, in
New York. Mr. Stoddard received
the letter at breakfast, and, combin-
ing familiarity with the intuitions Of
the poet, managed to make it out, and
enjoyed several good laughs. He
glanced up at Mrs. Stoddard and said:
ITS from William Winter. Very
funny. Want to read it?"
you know l can never read a word
of his writing" answered Mrs. Stod-
dard.
ooh, that doesn't matter" replied
Mr.. stoddard, tossing the letter over;
"it's just as funny to look at!"-Bos.

Dangerous Mexican Weed to smO

Dangerous Mexican Weed to Smoke.
Manuel Guerrero and Florencio Pine
had got the "maribuana" habit, and
for the last few weeks mad been
smoking big cigarettes in which to-
bacco was mixed with the dangerous
weed. Tuesday afternoon the two
men smoked cigarettes composed of
tobacco in smaller proportion than
marihuana, and after a few minutes
ran amuck.
Then went out into the street shout
Ing, vocferating and attacking every
body. First they marched hand in
hand, declaring that they were the
bravest men on earth and would kill
anybody who dared to say word to
the contrary, but at last Pine de-
clared that he was still Drawer than
his friend, and fight followed, the
two receiving dangerous wounds.
They were captured and sent to the
hospital. where they had to be put
into straitjackets. 1t is teareg
that the two men, if they recove'
from their wounds, will lose their
minds permanently, as is re case
often with marihuana smokers.-Mex-

Directors Mara numhfounded.

Once there was a rich mana very
rich man-who wanted to do some
thing handsome for a struggling insti-
tuition of learning.
He called the directors together and
said to them:
Gentlemen, | purpose giving your
institution $5,0O0OOO."
But" they said, after they had re-
covered from their surprise, ut will be
impossible for us to raise the $1O,-
100000 that will be needed in order to
secure your munifcent gift"
"You will not need to raise any
S10,OOO,00O," he replied; "the donation
will be unconditional"
Then the money will be invested
In bonds or real estate, we presume,
and we shall be allowed to use the in
come in erecting new buildings and
paying running expenses?" they fall
tered.
mot at ALL" responded the rich
man. 1.-THE gift will be in cash, to be
used In any way you please, and when
1t Is all gone there will be another
$5,0OO,OOO at your disposal, gentlemen,
II you have spent the first sum wise
ly."
The directors consulted together In
whispers and then quietly sent for an
officer.
The man evidently was insane.
