The vicar of st. Andrews, Whittle-

clergyman to favor Sunday cricket.

he had spent few days before in a

was delighted in the evening to find
the whole village at cricket. When he
saw the old clergyman approaching: !:
Il trembled for an angry interruption
to the sport and was almost on the
point of crying out to warn the crick-
eters. What was my agree

man standing at the style, with his

whole scene with evident satisfaction.

GOETHE HERO OF ROMANCE
Minor Love Affair That Figured in the
Life of Germany's Most Famous
Man of Letters.

Goethe, famous man of letters, once
loved a pretty little wife of middle
aged merchant, Peter Anton BrentanO,
who sold cheese and herrings.
Goethe, always careless of custom
and tradition, went often to the Bren-
tano home. It did not take him long
to discover that the lovely Maximili-
ane was extremely unhappy, and he
did what he could to make her smile.
He romped with her step-children, and
he played bass viOl at family con-
certS.
Both were younger than Brentano,
and both were palpably bored by
Of sales and profits.
AT first Brentano was delighted to
have Goethe come to the house.
His visits made Maximiliane happy,
| and that pleased the husband, who
had grieved when he saw his wife
smile so seldom. But he grew suspi-
cious. He counseled Maximiliane
to see Goethe less often, and there
were violent scenes in the house
hold. Goethe sided with the young
| wife, and continued to call frequent
ly. Brentano could not conceal his
wrath and his flaming jealousy. He
upbraided them, and there were
terrible moments" Goethe finally
rushed away in anger from The
house, determined never to be en-
broiled in such Quarrels again. He
plunged into the writing of "Wer-
ther," and Maximiliane passed out Of
his life.

TENOR "CARRIED THE TUNE"
Distribution of Voices in the Singing
of Old Ecclesiastical Songs,
and in Opera.

In the old ecclesiastical songs the
voice which sang the chant melody,
and around which other parts grouped
themselves was called the tenor.
This task had to be intrusted to the
person with the highest or loudest
voice. The word is derived from the
Latin teneo Il hold) and meant moth
ing more than that the tenor carried
the tune"
Voices were not formerly distributed
as at present. w. J. Henderson in his
early History Of Singing" says:
Eve should undoubtedly be amazed
to find julius Caesar singing soprano
or Achilles contralto, but the opera go
ers of the Seventeenth century would
have been much astonished If either OF
them had been a barytone or a bass
At most they could have been tenors
but neither ir that case would have
been the principal personages in the
drama. He would surely have been @

CHAPTER FoUR-continued.


Mr.. Sneed sat down with Judge
Croker in the handsome library of the
latter and opened his heart. His son
Richard, a boy of fifteen, and three
other lads of the village, had been
committing small burglaries and stor-
ing their booty in cave in a piece OF
woods on the river bank near the vii
lage. A constable had secured con-
fession and recovered part of the
booty. Enough had been found to war
rant a charge of grand larceny and
Elisha Potts, whose store had been
of the boys.
1T reminds me of that picturh of the
robbers cave that was on tAe Dill
board of our school of crime a few
weeks ago." said the judge. I'm tired
enough to lie down, but I'll go and see
Elisha Potts. If he's abed, he'll have
to get up, that's all. There's no tell
ing what Potts has done or may do.
Your plumbing is in bad shape, Mr..
Sneed. The public sewer is leaking
into your cellar and in case OF that
kind the less delay the better"
He went into the hall and put on
his coat and gloves and took his cane
out of the rack. He was sixty-hve
years Of age that winter. 1t was
bitter night, when even younger men
found it a trial to leave the comfort
of the fireside. Sneed followed in
silence. Indeed, his tongue was shame
bound. For a moment, he knew not
what to say.
Tim, much Obliged to you," he
stammered as they went out into the
cold wind. IL don't care what 1t
costs, either"
The Judge stopped and turned to-
ward him.
Look here" he said. Money does
not enter into this proceeding or any
motive but the will to help neigh
Dor. In such a matter overtime
doesn't count"
They walked in silence to the corner.
There Sneed pressed the judges hand
and tried to say something, but his
voice failed him.
Have the boys at my Office at ten
o'clock tomorrow morning. 1 want
to talk to them," said the kindly old
judge as he strobe away in the dark
neaa.
