This was a fatal reflection. "My circumstancos?" ho oontinued. •Uiataro they? Theso are not mino ,(,11.

This movemont [gssed a sharp pain to shoot across his lici, which reminded him that tho way dthe transgressor is hard.

And then the full, delightful, cussodjltssof tho situation dawned upon him. Ri'.should lie do? What could he do?

Be sat up again and looked hopelessly ibout Upon a bench not fifteen Ipts sway was a young woman, lently a servantof some kind, for her |h«iwas of plain material, Bet off with whit© cuffs at the sleeves, and such (rill of iace at the neck as only its' maids woar.

in a dazo of sur

prise until a ur.t eoi.ir crept into hor chock and a suspicion

a smilo crossed

hor lips. Ihen Mr. Drano remembered. Ho glanced :a his remnant of a hat which ho held in his hand, and his oyos immediately fell, but, he found no comfort in his boots, wjiere they rested. All his gentility departed on tho instant, and ho slii ted awkwardly, trying to speak and u.crely iumbling. With tho samo irres: tible ^auohorio he passed his hand .*r his chin, and tho rough stubblo thero ga\o further evidenoo of his absurd •.- miserable situation. Tho young wo usa "mod to realize somowhat of l.is emotions, for her faoo instantly became serious and sho said, softly: "1 am sure I owe very much to your kindness, your courage, your musclo. Truly 1 am very grateful."

Mr. Drane knew that he was blushing, and ho wondered whether his face wore clean enough to show it. lie looked up and saw tho young woman's blue eyes regarding hi:a compassionately. "I feel as :f I must apologizo for addressing you at all, miss," ho half stammered. "I forgot my—well, my loathsomo appiv-irance. It isn't mino, it ifn't my fault in fact, I am not exactly tho thing you see." "Oil, forgivo mo if I hsvo appeared to notice any thing but your goodness, sir," exclaimed the young woman, approaching him impulsively as sho spoke "you have doubtless been unfortunate, perhaps seen better days. I am sure you area gentleman at heart, and I am grateful, indeed I am, believe me," and without further ado Bhe took his hand and pressed it warmly in Loth of hers. Mr. I)runo winoed. Thero was tho most delicate condescension in her manner and tone her action said what words would hnvo rendored offensive: "See, I rocognizo your nobility of character, no matter how ugly is your disguise, and I am not ashamed to acknowledge it." To bo thus treated by a servant!

Yesterday this interesting young person would liavo stammered in his presence, bung her head, and would havo been overwhelmed at receiving a service at his hands. Now, forsooth, sho speaks grandly, airs her superiority, condescends to grasp Mr. Lawrence Drane's hand! The unhappy man began to experience profound resentment at this conceited lady's maid when a surprising change in hor manner aroused his curious interest. Sho let fall his hand as impulsively as sho had seized it, blushed painfully and looked at her white little hands which she folded bofore her. "Alas! I forgot," sho said, and hor lips trembled. "You can not understand, of course. Oh, dear! oh, dear! You see, I. too, am not at all what you see me, or what you think I am."

Mr. Drane hastened to give tho lio to his recent emotions "I am sure, miss," ho declared, gallantly, "I havo seen you and thought of you onlv as a lady it} distress to whom it has been my unalloyed pleasure to render somo small assistance."

The young woman looked up again. Her eyes were brimming with tears, nevertheless sho laughed softly. "1 can not help it, miserable as I am," she said "for your words do sound so incongruous," and she glanced as if in spito of herself at Mr. Drano's tattered clothing. "Yes, miss," responded Mr. Drano, humbly. Then gathering courago from tho remnjinlb of his pride he added: "And do you know, miss, I have thought tho Baine about your words," and ho inado no disguiso oi looking at the big cuiTs, tho emblem of her social position. "I do not wonder," sho replied, calmly, "for I am not 'miss' at all. I am a widow." "I am deeply grieved!" exclaimed Mr. Drano, hastily. "A blow of that nature coming upon ono so young must .bo severe indeed."

Thero was a most improper twinklo in tho young woman's eyes as sho responded: "Pray do not distress yourself. My widowhood camo so unexpectedly, was such a surprise, in fact, that it was more of a shock than a blow. Thero woro certain compensating circumstances, but, of course, I ought not to speak of such a matter lightly." "No, I suppose not," admitted Mr. Drano, rather dubiously. Even in his wretched situation ho felt an extraordinary interest in this young widow, and ho wondered again vaguely how it came that sho was away from hor employment at daybreak. Sho was tapping tho ground with hor foot thoughtfully, evidently hesitating about continuing her explanation. Mr. Drano was naturally curious. Circumstances had brought them strangely together. What could be better than to exchango confidences? Ho began: "You have been so good, madam, as to admit the possibility of my having seen bettor days. That is decidedly the

case, and I mean to see better ones yet if luck is not wholly against me." Then ho stopped abruptly, for tho consciousness of bis situation overwhelmed him, and he felt tho absurdity of confiding in a mere servant. Tho young woman did not notice hismanner. "It is you who havo been good," she said, "and you ought to know moro fully how you have befriended me. My story is a strange one people do not credit it, but I trust you will believe me. Let us sit down, for 1 am fatigued with anxiety and sleeplessness."

Still this same irritating condescension from a lady's maid! Mr. Drano thought ruefully of his bedraggled ap-pear.-meo and admitted that appearances justified it.. hat becomes of the lino "A man's a man for a' tliat," when every body estimates him by his apparel? Ho.voaj the

It Is folly to kick against appearances, and what is folly is useless, and what is useless should not bo held ergo, a man who appears to be a vagabond and disreputable is a vagabond and disreputable, and so much the wor.so if he stubbornly endeavor to maintain tho contrary. Such was tho bitter train of reasoning indulged by Mr. Drano as ho and tho fair young widow went to tho bench from which sho had been driven, for sho was fair, notwithstanding sundry ovidences of a sleepless night, and interesting in spito of her big culls and laco frill. "lo bogln, as a woman must, at neither end of tho story," sho began when they woro seated, "you must know that I possess iinmonso wealth."

Mr. Drano roso quickly. beg your pardon for tho interruption,", ho said, "but do you happen to havo any of that with you?" "Alas! no," sho roplied, dismally, "and that is not tho worst of it." "It's as bad as it can bo for tho moment," Mr. Drano insisted, as ho resumed his seat. "You see, I would havo been very glad to give you my note for flvo hundred if you had it convenient."

Tho young woman looked at him searchlngly. "I should bo wicked if I did not desire to holp you, poor man," sho said, gravely, "and I trust the time may como speedily when I shall bo able to do so."

Mr. Drane was stung, but not crushed. "You mustundorstand," he exclaimed, "that I should repay it I'vogot plenty of money, that is, there's plenty belonging to me. and I can get it if I can only prove my identity."

Tho young woman's eyes were dilated with wonder and doubt. "Strange!" sho said, slowly, "for that is exactly my own case. You shall tell me your story presently. Listen to mino. I became an orphan at an early age, and until a little more than a year ago I lived with my guardian, a warm friend of my father's. In liuiTalo. At tho timo of which I am about to speak with some particularity I had just attained my majority, so that I controlled what little property had been bequeathed to me. I still lived with my guardian, however, and had not thought seriously of the fact that I was at last absolutely a responsible being in the world. Thero had been somo suitors for my band, but to none had I shown tho loast favor. That they were all siuoero I have no doubt, for my fortune was too slight to bo a temptation. Among them was a singular young man of really immense riches. Ho was generally credited with being the possessor of thirteen millions." "Deuced unlucky figure," interposed Mr. Drane. "You shall see," said the fair narrator. "I could not bring myself to feel towards this young man as I believo a woman should towards a husband, although I had no reason to entertain any thing but respect for his character. My guardian pleaded with

mo to

match so palpably desirable, but 1 could not consent. It was while this matter was pending that somo of my associates arranged to give an amateur theatrical performance for tho benefit of a charitable institution. As fortune, or perhaps shrewd design, would havo it, t'.i wealthy young man and I wero cast for opposite parts. I had plainly rejected his proposals to me, but ho would not take no for an answer, and ho persisted in a quiet, good-natured devotion that 1/ could not resent, but which began tcf grow irksome, until at last I feared tha/t I should havo to marry him in order tjo bo free from him. I was in this ha|f tormented spirit when wo met ono niglijt at a privato house for rehearsal. "He was always insisting that we should go over our love scenes again and again, and tho others who understood ilio situation sided with him. At tho end of that ovoning, having teamed mo as much as possiblo, ho suggested that wo carry tho story of our piay to its logical conclusion by rehearsing a marriago ceremony. 'It's something wo must all come to,' ho said, 'and I imagine that a fellow would feel much better before tho altar if he had loarned how to go through tho motions.' Tho others, silly young things! wero fired with tho idea and withcut further thought arranged tho furnituro so as to represent an altar, tho chancel rail and all that." "A very reprehensible proceeding," commented Mr. Drano. The young woman was about to proceed when a gray-coated officer, ono of thoso guardians of public parks ironically known as "sparrow chasers," stepped up and addressed Mr. Drano: "Say, yous, do you think nobody olso don't want to»sit down? I let you sleep oil your jag here, see? an' it's 'bout timo you moved on, see?"

Mr. Drano was about to resent tho interference when tho young woman whispered: "Say nothing and obey?"

So they rose, and followed for a moment by the policeman'Bcurious eyes, walked along tho winding path to another bench, where they satdown again. "Offlcious Impudence!" muttered Mr. Drane. "Nevermind," said the young woman, soothingly, "he has to do something to earn his pay. Let me see, where was I on the other bench?" "At the mock ohancel rail."

"Uh, e.-( well, teased as 1 was I consented to the farce, saying thatitshould be tho ii,t of my lover's non.senso that I would endure. went through an absurd rigmarole, they made mo say lots of foolish things, and at tho end tho young man who played the minister insisted on kissing tho bride. Then my mock husband insisted, and—oh! doar me!—it was very mortifying, and until that wretched performance was given I had to enduroall sorts of banter and jest. Then came tho tragedy. A few days after the performance my mock husband was thrown from his carriage and instantly killed Of course 1 was shocked, together with his other friends, but you may imagine my surprise when his will was unsealed to find that bo had left, after a few minor bequests, all h:s tuu-teen millions to me. his wife!'' "Whew!"- exclaimed Mr. Drano, softly, and he looked hard at tho ground to conceal the incredulity that he knew must show itself in his eyes. "I then learned," continued the young woman, "that the man who performed the mock ceremony was authorized to do it in real earnest, and that the presence of witnesses and tho other features of Now York law mado the marriago legal. It was carried to tbo courts and so decided. Itehold mo, then, a widow with great wealth. Tho situation was not wholly pleasant, for people talked and suitors camo in troops. So I went abroad. Yesterday I arrived in America again. I know nothing of this city, and yielding to my maid's advice I went to tho Adams Hotel. That was in tho early afternoon. My trunks wero to follow me this morning. Fatigued with the worry

mako a

landing and tho waiting

for customs officers and feeling tho approach of a sick hoadacho, I retired. About six o'clock I awoke refreshed to find that my maid had disappeared with my clothing, my hand-bag-gage and all my money. Sho had loft mo what I now woar, which I was forced to put on. Tho clerk of tho hotel very impudently discredited my story said that my mistress had paid tho bill and gone, und that I was to follow her to tho St. Cloud. Ho added, moreovor, that two games of tho kind in ono day were moro than ho could stand. I was not clear as to his meaning, but I understood him to refer to somo man who had attempted to imposo upon tho house earlier in tho day with a similar story." "Yes, that was me," groaned Mr. Drane, ungrammatically. "In sheer desperation," continued tho hapless widow, "I went to tho St. Cloud, but, of course, found no trace of my maid. Since then I havo wandered about most of tho time in this park, supperloss, sleepless and, until you interposed, friendless." "Madam," said Sir. Drane, when she had finished, "your talo is most interesting." "And a clever fabrication, I suppose?" she added, sadly. "No, madam, I do not say that," ho exclaimed, in confusion, for he was struggling hard to believo it. "I am not a widower, and I have not been robbed by my valet, but otherwise I am in a situation to trust your account of your career implicitly. Somebody has taken my clothing, my money, my credit, my name, my identity from me, and—" "Hush!" whispered tho widow "hero comes tho officer again. Let us be oil before be speaks to us."

As they walked into tho street, and so out of tho "sparrow-chaser's" territory, Mr. Drane's feelings, which had been somewhat stirred by his companion's recital, sank again to a level with his condition. "What in tho world shall.•we do?" ho asked. "I'm hungry." "So am 1," siud tho widow. "I don't know wh.vch way to turn."

At th'is moment hurried footsteps bohind yhem caused them to face about. A

young man in evening dress and a black eyo was coming up with a policeman. "That's tho fellow!" exclaimed tho young man, pointing at Mr. Drano. "I charge him with unprovoked assault."

Mr. Drane's heart went into his boots at tho prospect of fresh humiliation, but before ho could utter a word tho policeman had snapped an iron ring over his wrist and had said, roughly: "Como now, stop lively!"

Dazed, mortified, crushed, Mr. Drane could neither speak nor move, and tho policeman drew back his club to persuade bim into motion, but the blow did not reach him. It raised a cruel welt on the young widow's wrist, and her voice trembled with pain and indignation as she said: "Do not take this gentleman, Mr. Officer! Uo was at fault only in defending mo against that man's insults. Pleads let him go." "That's n.nsenso, of courso, Tom," said he of tho Mack eye. "The follow tried to rob me.1 "Como now, get a move on," commanded tho policeman, giving Mr. Drano an ui/mfortablo poko in the email of thciioack with his club. Mr. Drano stu'.i/led forward, trying to teU his unhappy companion to pay no attention to him, when sho onoo more interposed, seizing tho

by his olub

arm and imploring him to free the prisoner. The polioeman shook himself free, prodded Mr. Drano again, and said to tha young woman:

you clear out now?"

"No! I won't!" she cried, and sho stamped her foot imperiously. "That gentleman defended mo and I won't see him wronged. So there!"

Tho policeman replied by rappfng smartly on the walk with his club, and hardly had ho ceased when another bluo coat appeared. "Takothe young woman in, Charley," said tho first, laconically. "This is outrage!" exclaimed Mr. Drane, and then that quick, dismal philosophy recurred to him and ho saw that it was all perfectly natural. Another poko and a warning from tho policeman showed biui that it was folly to resist. So the five marched up liroadway to the nearest station house. Mr. Drano wrathful and silent, the widow indignant and tearful, and ho tho black eye sullen and vengeful.
