He gained swiftly everything to be had
over a footlight. Within five years
he vas richer than any other marquis
born in the villa at Sorrento.
More northern and colder blood
would doubtless, after these years,
have given up the Virgin Of the
Mountain. and gone about enjoyment
OF it's much goods, like that certain
rich man. But not so this blood,
brewed In its sun-vat by the Mediter-
ranean.
All this was related in minutest de-
tail by the servant Pietro to Ran
the finding of the Virgin Of the Noun
tain. Not by the Marquis Mazaccra
nor the host of Italian servants in
New York, all commissioned by the
authority on the East side to search,
but by accident. An Italian paper
hanger, sent to help with the interior
decoration of a house on East Forty
eighth street, had discovered the
painting rolled up III a closet Of a
room on the second floor whose door
he had opened to find a place for his
paste pots. The house belonged to
Tolman Perkins. q retired iron manu-
f%acturer. This man, like all those
who, having got a fortune by middle
to enjoy it, had found inactivity I'M
bearable, and had gone wandering
over the earth. He was about to re-
turn from a three years sauntering
through the Japanese east, and the
caretakers were getting the house In
order for him.
The fame Of Randolph Mason had
been carried by Pietro into the king
dom Of New Italy. The authority
there wished to know how the pic
ture might be recovered and adequate
vengeance visited on Tolman Perkins.
Pietro laid the matter before Ran
dolph Mason one night after dinner
Randolph Mason babe Pfetro sit
explained with great patience the
avenues Of redress. A suit could be
instituted in the circuit court Of the
United States by this Mazaccra, a
subject of King Victor Emanuel the
Third of Italy, against Tolman Per
kins, to ecure the painting and ade-
quate damages. The picture could be
taken, meanwhile into the custody of
the court by a proper writ. This was
the direct legal plan available in such
a case, and to be advised. II this
authority on the East side preferred
not to go with such a matter into the
courts, then he would give it a plan
by which the matter could be adjust
ed without the running of n risk.
But first, Pietro should go back to
New Italy, state exactly what Ran
dolph Mason had said, and learn
which of the two plans the authority
there preferred to follow.
But, in the meantime, the Marquis
Mazaccra had elected to follow his
own plan. Taking the place Of the
Italian paper hanger who had found
the picture OF the Virgin of the
Mountain. and disguised as that
workman. he went on the day follow

Small Boy Pretty Wei Satisfied That
the Future Was MOI Likely to
BE . Hard One.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer says:
A Lakewood woman was recently
reading to her little boy the story OF
a young lad whose father was taken
Ill and died. after which he set HIM
self diligently to work to support him
self and mother. When she had nm
ished the story she said:
Dear Billy. II your papa were to
die would you work to support your
dear mamma?"
"Naw!" said Billy. Unexpectedly.
"But why not?"
"Ain't we got q good house TO I've
in?"
yes. dearie-but We can't eat ths
house, you know"

ing the discovery to the house on
Forty-eighth street and brought the
painting away with him inclosed in
q roll of burlap.
Pietro reported to Randolph Mason
that the stolen picture had been thus
recovered and that the authority Of
New Italy now considered the matter
ended.
The Marquis Mazaccra, however,
did not consider it thus ended. The
score with Tolman Perkins remained
yet to be settled. The Latin mind
was not accustomed to the idea Of
| punitive damages at law for an in
jury.
On a certain Sunday morning, a
few days after the of the
picture of the Virgin of the Noun
tain. New York was astonished by a
homicide belonging. in it's deliberate,
cruel and theatric details, to some
inquisitorial era. Mr.. Tolman Per-
kins, a bachelor, was found by his
valet at seven o'clock on this Sunday
morning, in the library OF his house
condition.
Mr.. Perkins, insensible from loss
of blood, was taken Immediately to
a hospital and a saline solution in
jected into his veins. He revived q
little and attempted to talk. but was
unable to do 30. A pencil was put
into his fingers and he was asked to
write the name of the person who had
attacked him. Finally. after repeated
| efforts, he wrote the following words:
ut was that Italian, the Marquis
| Mazacc~a, who did it. When I get
well I will kill him"
He oied at three O'Clock. But the
| curtain was not yet rung down on the
tragedy.

| son At about five o'clock when,

through the window, I noticed Pietro
enter the back gate OF the house with
an Italian fruit vender.
"Oh, Mr.. Mason" he said. "a ter
rible thing has happened! The Mar
quis Mazaccra is lost"
Then, hurriedly, ge%sticulating with
his hands and shoulders, he poured
forth the whole story: How a wax
impression of the loci on the Forty
eighth street house had been taken
for the Marquis Mazaccra after the
picture of the Virgin had been
brought away, and a key made; how
with this key the marquis had admit
ted himself to the presence Of Toll
man Perkins in his library, seized him
from behind as he sat reading by his
table. and visited upon him this ghast-
ly ordeal of retributive Justice; how
Tolman Perkins, contrary to every hui
man possibility, by reason Of a blood
clot forming in the wound, had lived
long enough to tell who had killed
him. The, Italian janitor at the hos
pital had made. a copy of his dying
statement; the Marquis Mazaccra was
instantly notified. and by the direction
of that authority on the East side, Of
whom | have spoken, had come In
%stantly, disguised-thus, to Randolph
Mason. He was there by the door.
Let me see this statement" said
Mason.
Pietro handed him a piece OF wrap
ping paper containing these lines In
pencil:
ct was that Italian, the Marquis
Mazaccra, who did it. When l get
well will kill him."
You will at once" said Mason to
the marquis, abandon this absurd dis
guise, and Immediately return to your
usual life at the Dresden, conducting
yourself there as though nothing un-
usual had happened. Refuse to be in
terviewed. II you are fortunate
enough to be arrested. decline to
make any statement whatever and
send Immediately for me-"
Sir" he said. 81 never in my life
have been accustomed to take direc-
lions from any man; but since have
come to you for directions, shall i'm
plicitly obey them"
Then he picked up his basket from
the floor and went out of the room,
followed by Pietro.
From the great newspapers Of
America nothing car De hidden; mel.
Their a flight on the wings of the MORN
ing nor a dwelling in the uttermost
parts of the sea provides adequate
over. On Monday morning the whole
story of Tolman Perkins killing was
laid In detail before the world under
headlines inquiring who the Marquis
MaZaccra was.
Friday, Saturday, a week passed,
and the Marquis Mazaccra was not
yet taken into custody.
The people. waxing vitriolic, began
now to speculate; conjecture to wag
its double-pointed tongue.
In the mean time the district attor-
ney remained as silent as the unmo-
Tested, singing marquis. However, ten
days after the death of Tolman Per-

caused the valet to be arrested.
When l told Randolph Mason Of this
his eyes narrowed and his under jaw
moved %resolutely forward.
Parks" he said, Il am coming to
have an interest in this district attor-
ney. Let US visit him"
Then he summoned the marquis
from the Dresden, and three Of US went
in a carriage to the Criminal Court
building. We were brought almost i'm
mediately into the presence of the
district attorney.
"Sir," said Randolph Mason, per
NIT me to present to you the Marquis

For a moment there was an expires.

arose and bowed ~courteously.
