One day . man stopped at tue boa

tO say lnhI tnefe was work tU be had in the Bronx park, where a large nun Der of laborers were required in uuk ing some Improvements.
 After dinner Rurney walked ihirly yards down the rivev bank away fru,, the u'addening smell of tle others pipes. He sat down upon q stone H, was thinking he wouIl set out for tl. Bronx. .At least he could earn tnbacv, there,
 Softly stepping among the clm.> came Tony. he of the r;ue of Got!., who worked in the kitchen He .rln ned ut H'lrney's elbow and that u. happy man. full of race an,lns,l, and holding nrlGlnify in cuntctu,,: sIowied at him. What dye wal,, <. - dago:"
 Tony also contained q grievance and plot He. loo. was d Currl.a, !, hater aud had been urlned to see ;. in others.
 How you Ilke-;, Mir, Corrigan?" as asked. You think-a him a nice: man."
 "To h. with 'm." said Burney. "Ala, his liver turn to water and he bones Q him crack in the cold of his heart May dog fennel grow upon his all cestors' graves and the granISonS ol his children be born without eyes May whisky turn to clabbcr Tn hi. mouth and every time he snecz,S ma. he blister the soles of his feet. .Nnd the smoke of his pipe-may it mak, his eyes water and the drops fall or the grass tha. his COWS eat and luisul the butler that he spreads on his hread'| s-z+. -=-.-..- '-
 Though Tony remained q stranger f. the beauties Of this imagery. he gath cred from it, the ;conviction that it wa. sufficiently anti-Corrigan in it's tend ency So. with the confidence of |; fellow .conspirator. he. sat by Isurne, upon the stone and unfolded his plot
 It was very simple in design. Ever, dnv after dinner 1t was. CorriyanS ilab 1t to sleep for an hour iu his bunk At such times it was the duty of ,h. cook and his helper. Tony. to ieav. the boat 80 that no noise might dis tslrb the altocrlt. The cook aIw:ry> spent this hour ln walking exercise Tony's plan was this: After Cnrrigal should be asleep he .(Tony,- and Bur ,,ey would cut the mooring ropes that 1s<,ffl 5hr>.y tn ,l ed the nerve. to do the. deed alone Then the awkward boat would swing ont into swift current and surel. oycrturn against q rock there was be low. ,.4.
 Come on and do it." said Burney "ff the, back of ye aches from tn, lick he. gave ye as the pit of me Stom acIl does for. the taste of a bit ol smoke. we can't. cut the ropes toe onick..
 All a,right."' said Tony. "But bet ter wait bout a ten minute more Give <. Corrig'ii, plenty time get good-; sleei," lle,lml'ed from his shirt hosn,l u long. black. beautiful venomous ci gar and hailded it to Rurney- 'eg 2 You like-a smoke while We wait :! lie asked.
 Duriiey clntclieI 1t and snapped of the end as Il terrier bites at-a rat. ut laid 1t to his lips like q long lost sweet heart When the smoke began to dra W h' gave d long. deep sigh. and tn, liristle.' of lis gray-red 'nustache cnri ed down oyer the cigar like the taIo,l> of an. eagle, Slowly the red faded fr,n the whites of his eyes. He tiXet his gaze dreamiiY. upon the hills across the river. The minutes r;ill,e and went '' Bout time to go now." said Tony .'Thit-a CoiriSan ne be in the reeve' very 5quick. ..,.:
 Burney Starteal,out of his trance with a agtunt, He turned his head and gazet with :l surprised and Iained severity at his. ,,ccompiice He took the cigar purtly from his mouth. but sucked il back again immediately, chewed i, lovingly once or twice and spoke. i' virulent pnffs. from the corner of his mouth: . S ,.~, .s...s.s.
 What is it. ye waller havthen: Would .ye lay contriyances against the enlightened races of the earth. ye in stigator of illegal crimes: Would yt seek tO persuade Martin l:,irney int the dirty tricks of m indecent Dag"; Would ye l,e for murdrrin' your hene factor. the good man that gives ye fo" and work: Take that yc punkin c"l cred ass,,ssil,."
