Tiflcent banquet Is given on i ol Agrippe in honor of Nero. Mtaklng plenteouely of the iUy viands and wines, the ; ar Invited by Nero to roam garden and groves, Vinitius ( them. His handsome figure ,ade him a great favorite among dies at the court, and even Popthe empress, meeting him in garden, makes violent love to him, y .Vinitius repels her with the (Words, "leave me for I love another," Hot realizing that the veiled figure before him is a woman of guch great vower in the court. Petronius, however, has been watching, and later Tushes up to Vinitius with the worda, "knowest thou who that was? It was oijpea! Had st thou recognized her, nothing could have saved thee, nor Lygia, no, perhaps myself." One day, while Vinltius is meditating alone in his home, the prophet Chilo appears, and whispers that he has again discovered the whereabouts of Lygia. Vinitius accompanies Chilo j the place, but dismisses the old mar. in front of the house, telling him to go his way and forget that he had eve. served him. Vinitius enters th house and finds the Apostle Peter with a small band of Christians. He tells them the reason of his visit; he wishes to marry Lygia at any' cost, and declares himself ready to accept Christianity. Lygia then appears, and the Apostles blesses their love. Vinliius then returns home, and in his new spirit of happiness, frees all his slaves for Lygia's sake, and realizes that he is indeed a man changed in purpose. Petronius now counsels him to Join Nero's court, which has removed to Antrium, a short distance from Rome. Here feasting and revelry take place and Nero indulges to his heart's desire in all the excesses of his luxurious court. He is intensely fond of poetry and song and devotes much of his time in pursuit of these, but he etlll yearns for some subject to give him inspiration for much greater work, and it is suggested by Tigellinus that he might care to behold Rome in flames. And it is not long afterward that a messenger enters Nero's presence with the words, "Rome is burning!" to which the emperor answers in ecstacy, "Yc gods! I shall see a burning city and complete my Lliads!" When Vinitius hears the news he makes frantic haste toward Rome, and upon reaching the city, inquires of the fugitives concerning Lygia, but for a long time can learn nothing definite.

The whole city is now seen in a mass of flames. It glows like a great

furnace, and illuminates the Bryfor miles around. Thousands of unfortun

ate people perish, and the others ru3h forward through the crowded streets, carrying their goods upon their backs,

In a frantic struggle for safety. Moth

ers, endeavoring to save their chil

dren, fill the streets with their cries

of woe. Great buildings, beautiful and immense, totter and fall to the ground; huge columns and arches of

supurb magnificence are reduced to heaps of ruins. Confusion reign everywhere, gallowed by violence and robbery, in certain places of the city great pillars ol fire shoot up into the air like a huge volcano, and the wind,, catching the burning embers, carries them to

wreak further destruction. Human

hands seem utterly powerless to cope with the catastrophe. In order to obtain a better view of the perishing city, Nero Journeys close by, accompanied by a company of his courtiers. At a safe distance he goes out upon a balcony and gazes upon the all-consuming conflagration. At last he can gratify his desire to behold a great city in flames. Who could wish for a better inspiration for a poem. The fall of Troy was nothing to be com pared, with it. The emperor raises his voice and sings, accompaning himself upon his flute. In the meantime Vinitius, nearly suffocated by the fumes and smoke, braves the terrible confusion and succeeds in finding Lygia, llrsus and the Apostle Peter. He begs them to leave Rome, but they refuse, and thereupon Vinitius promises that 'he will remain with them, and asks to be baptized a Christian, and the Apostle Peter baptizes him. When the flames .are finally extinguished, the Roman people, reduced to great want, cry loudly for vengeance. Many angrily accuse Nero himself of the crime. Shouts of "Matricide!" "Incendiary!" fill the air. Nero dreading the wrath of the people, sends his favorite, Petronius, to calm the furious threats by making liberal promises of grain and en- j tertainment. ' In order to turn the blame upon : someone else, the emperor gladly em- ; braces the suggestion of the false Chilo, seconded by Tigellinus, that the ; Christian people are the real culprits : and a general arrest of them takes ' place, among them Lygia, TJrsus and Glacus. The Roman soldiers search

the houses, and drive the unfortunate people to the foul prisons to await their cruel fate. Vinitius makes an heroic attempt to save Lygia, but in vain.
