 dirty mess; threw it away"
 Bless your soul, I'll be careful. When I've finished I'll put 1t in my
 safe. I'll have it tyoewritteu tomor-
 row."
 Merry laughed. Good night, old pard; I'm grateful for your faith in
 me-"
 Good night, boy" Enoch gripped his hand. "I'm terribly glad to have
 you make good. Your play is wonder ful.''
 Merry went down the stairs whis- ting. A few seconds later he turned
 back. He put his head in at the door and said in a melodramatic whisper:
 Rush the business, my ford. I'm owing thee a hundred and much else. 1t shall
 be paid with compound interest from
 the first nights returns" Then he
 laughed and shut the door. "A hundred!" whispered Wentworth.
 He dropped into the chair beside the
 fire and covered his face with his
 hands. The room had grown dark and
 it was so silent that when cinder fell feet. He searched for a small brass key on his ring, hurried into the library, and unlocked a drawer in the desk. He took a slip of paper from a yellow envelope and stood staring at it for several minutes. His brows wrinkled and a curiously startled ex- pression came into his eyes. He drew
 long breath, put the paper back in the envelope, laid 1t in the drawer, and turned the key in the lock. He walked
 to a window, which looked down On the square, and stared at the life of
 the city. It was a habit of his. He
 has solved many knotty problem
 with his eyes fixed unconsciously upon the busy street.
 The thought-spell heightened out indefinitely, then ended abruptly. He
 hurried to his den, lifted Andrews
 manuscript, and seated himself before the desk. From a lower drawer he
 took a heap of paper. filled the ink
 we'll almost to overfowing. and tried
 several pens before he found one that
 suited him. Then, switching on the
 electricity under a green-shaded bulb.
 he began with steady laboriousness to
 copy Merry's play. The clock struck
 three before his task was ended. He
 gathered the manuscript into two neat
 piles. One he placed in his safe, the other he locked in the drawer which
 held the bit of paper he had studied so intently.
 He returned to his chair beside the ghost of a fire. laid his face between his palms. and fought battle between two antagonists, his conscience and temptation. He felt as If his soul was in shackles.

HE ENDoWs HOSPITALS.
Another Pennsylvania Capitalist Seeks
to Die a Poor Man.

New York Worldly
A local philanthropist purposes to
give all his wealth to hospitals before
he dies. He is George w. Nevil, CT,
a bachelor, of No. 1914 Girard avenue.
He is separating from his wealth in
$4,000 installments. Already he has
contributed $4,000 to Philadelphia
hospitals.
Last Wednesday Mr.. Nevil CAV
$4,000 to the German hospital for the
perpetual endowment of a free bed in
the public wards. Previously he had
given $4,000 to the Home for Incura-
bles, $4,000 to the Jewish hospital,
$4,000 to the Pennsylvania hospital,
and $4,000 to st. Joseph's hospital.
Since the death Of his sister and
brother within the last wv years Mr..
Nevil has had no relatives. His par
ticular interest now is the welfare of
mankind. He has made a study Of the
results of philanthropy and has come
to the conclusion that hospitals are
the most worthy beneiciaries. He
shuns publicity and is very modest
about his gifts.
I'm fact 1T would displease me very
much to have printed anything about
my philanthropy" he told a reporter.
1t makes him happy to be the IN
strumentality whereby some one may
regain his health, he said, and it's the
OILY happiness he can find.
