surprise | made no comment, but read
the brief document. Lascar was men,
toned for a trifing legacy.
The introduction which the city editor
had assigned me to write was as good
as | could make it. The boys said kind
things about it the next day before | left.
A private communication to the city
editor read as follows
Ten years ago l went to the island of
Corsica with my father, who was counsel
for number of prominent Italian mer-
chants in New-York who were exploiting
some commercial enterprises there.
1--WE remained there for three years.
Lisa taught Italian to me. Her face
rises before me as | write-pure and fair
as Beatrice's eyes black and lustrous,
soft and melting and tender, with a
touch of the blue sky and the blue sea
at times; trim, neat figure clad in the
the picturesque raiment of her island
home; a cheek that the warm Corsican
sun had kissed to a mellow olive; and
teeth as white as the alabaster she was
selling at the great charity bazaar where
| saw her for the first time.
90 1t would be too long a story for me
to tell you how we began to love. Earth
holds no sweeter hours than those we
knew. 1t was the old old story that we
told each other out there in her uncles
garden under the white Corsican moon.
Her uncle and guardian was Emilio
Luba.
Il did not know until afterward of his
connection with the 'Fratti dt DfaUolo.'
Once Lisa told me of a cousin who loved
her with all the fierce tenderness of his
nature 1t was Lascar.
"Our story was too sweet to last. The
beginning of the end came when her
uncle, who had private reasons for hating
my father in connection with his COM
mercial projects, learned of our love, and
locked up Lisa in his home. For weeks
| did not see her; but at last we COM
municated, and by overcoming super
human obstacles we made Our escape from
the town and started over the mountains
for the nearest port. We were almost
in sight of the sea when we were over
taken in the widest part of the noun
tains by the fierce band of brigands and
srnugglers known as the Brothers of the
Devil Emilio Luba was at their head.
q cannot dwell on the infamous de-
tails Luba always had coveted his
niece's fortune, and when threats and
entreaties proved of no avail he gave
her the choice of being his prisoner in his
mountain home or of draining the Cup
of the Last Kiss There was only one
choice to make: and she died-died
brave and sweet and pure.
"'DtO, carissimoP she said softly to
me before she drank
Then l was given phial of the same
deadly draft, blindfolded, and set wan
dering through the mountains. The
chances of escape were a thousand to one.
"I If you get thirsty, said Luba mock
ingly, you can drink long and deeply.
for the Cup of the Last Kiss is sweet.
But fate willed it that l should
escape, and l carried the Cup of the
Last Kiss for ten years. Luba dis
appeared, and | returned to America
Time blunted the sharpness of my grief,
but it never drove the hatred from my
heart nor blotted out the memory of that
little grave covered with sweet mountain

VERDICT.
1t was generally thought that
the jury would soon agree upon
verdict, but it was mid night
before they returned to the court
room with finding. Their yer.
dict was guilty with a recon.
mendation to mercy, which re.
commentator reduces the puni-
shment from life Imprisonment
in the penitentiary to term of
years, not less than ten.
The defendants counsel i'm
mediately gave notice of motion
for new trial. 1t is said that
the jury was unanimous for con.
viction from the outset of their
deliberations, but that one OF
their number wanted to recon.
mend to mercy and the remaining
eleven, rather than let the case
result in mistrial, finally went
over to his side.

The Great Benevolent and
Patriotic Order Takes a
Firm Stand in Favor of the
Restriction of immigration

immigration from European
Countries during the past year
was larger than ever before, and
the positive and everpresent evils
of unrestricted immigration are
so antagonistic to our social con-
dition and the welfare of wage
earners of the United States that
the American people now demand
that some barrier be erected, not
only against the insane, the GRIM
inal and the pauper, but against
the COMPETITIVE alien upon
whose product we have been levy
ing high productive tariff.
Charitable institutions, prisons
and hospitls are crowded with
aliens, and some of the trades,
mines and public works are so
burdened with the low grade of
foreign labor that the American
workmen are driven out. Last
year twenty-five million dollars
was sent to Italy by Italians in
America and most of it was to
assist others to come. Some parts
of Southern Europe have become
almost depopulated through i'm
migration to Unite States and in
many localities not enough able
bodied men can be found to bury
the dead for the reason that all
the men and boys are In the
United States and every one of
them has displaced some Ameri-
can native born or naturalize d
citizen. The restriction of immi-
grafton has become an economic
necessity and should be a live DO
litical issue throughout each Con
gressional district. The situation
is grave and threatening for the
tide Of immigration brings with,
it the germs of anarchy, crime,
disease, and degeneracy and it is
an open attack on the very ex-
istepce of the American laboring
men. Already the character of
many parts Of the New England
States has been radically altered
because of the fact that the for
eign element has driven out the
old stock of Americans, which
will be the ultimate fate Of other
portions of our land, and if con-
tinued for one hundred years the
present race of native born or
naturalized Americans will be as
extinct as the mound builders.
Under our loose naturalization
laws those ignorant immigrants
soon become voters, the tools of
corporations, the bosses and dem-
agogio ringsters, and their votes
give the majorities in our great
cities, carry the States and There
