BENEDICT.

It was ripe autumn in a Rhenish village. Tho sun, slowly- sinking into its bed, tinged all nature with tho radianco of its departing glory. Mountains of Irregular height, capped by forests of trees, stood out In bold relief against tho ml dyed stj, and numbers of small graystono vintners' cottages nestled amid the luxuriant foliage on tho slopes of tho hills. Beneath nil was tho Rhino, sweeping silently through tho valley below till, falling over a cluster of rooks, it was transformed Into a cataract, the roar of w^hoso waters broko in upon thd stillness of eventide and mingled with tho lowing of tho various herds being driven back to their farms.

Against the doorway of ono of the small oottages leaned a woman, shading her eyes from tho radiant afterglow with a email, elegantly shaped hand—a woman whoso youth was already past, but whose delicate, refined features still retained the charm of earlier years. She was singularly attractive. Masses of dead gold hair covered hor shapely head. Her eyes were largo and dusky brown, and she looked from beneath their dark fringes with a slow, languid gaze. A soft silk of somber hue enveloped hor lissom figure and trailed on the gross at hor foot. Among the vlntnors she was known as "La Belle Anglalsc," of whose beauty and proud, cold manner they stood somewhat in awo. She had como among them at the commencement of tho summer, and furnishing one of tho little cottages to suit herrequiroments lived there, in comparative seclusion, with on old servant, who accompanied her. Sho sighed, half impatiently, half sadly, as sho sat down to rest on tho little carved seat in tho porch. As •ho did BO the mournful notes of a fanertf hymn, borne onward by tho breezo, fell upon hor ear in fitful cadence.

A group of peasants, oarrying in their midst a tiny coffin, covered with masses of white flowers, was slowly approaching, preceded by a priest, accompanied by three acolytes, who carried a silver crucifix, IUH

'DKAH FUIKND—Where

'grm

as they chanted swung a censer to and fro, leaving a delicate odor in tho oppressive air. Moved by some sudden caprice, sho gathered hor drapery Into her hand and followed tho sad procession, winding along the road, till through an avenue of iollago on tho summit of a hill tho ruined chapel of St. Rosalie came in sight. En routo they encountered Jacques, tho postboy, and the lrnly lingered till tho lad, having satisfied his religious scruples by falling on Ms knees while tho procosslon passed, delivered to heraoouplo of lottors. Tho slow bell for tho souls of tho departed had ceased ringing and tho servleo bad begun when sho reached tho llttlo grave. Fearing to disturb tho mourners, sho passed to tho east, end of tho ruined chapel, and lifting the latch of tho crazy llttlo gate,which creaked rustlly upon Its hinges, found herself in the chapel, Near tho door hung a pointing of tho Holy Mother, stained and disfigured with damp and ago. Somo passing brx'sse had carried with it a fow seeds from a passion flower, which, falling between tho broken stones that paved the chapel, hnd sprung up and now outlined tho rugged cross with its rich purple blossoms. Part of the chapel was unroofed, but reverent piety kept tho roof over tho crucifix and altar intact. Seating herself In ono of tho ancient pews and drawing a small silver dagger attached to her chatelaine, sho proceeded to open the letters. Inside tho first was a small note, surmounted by a coronet, and a purely conventional smile parted hor lips as she glanctxl nt tho writing. It ran as follows: "CARLTON CLUB.'

den yourself and why? Mayfuir is lost in amazement, that the London season should find the beautiful Mrs. St. Croix absent, her enchanted palace slmt up. Have you gone in scareh of your Ideal? If tho search fall, daw I hope? Yours

The other note wast written on mauve •cesited paper and was purely feminine "STRATFORD PLACK, W.

Mrs. St. Croix tore up the first note with impatient gostura. The eeoond she rend •gain. Beauty, wealth and fame I What had they brought her? Had they staid for an hour the passionate cry of her heart, the maddening longing for as oki love? The letter fe!? from her fingers as the clasped them over her face. Present •QUODA faded away. The solemn tones of the final benediction which floated in from tho churchyard changed to the passionate pleading of a man. The silence seemed to intensify hi# anguish—his eternal farewell. The «cent of roses that climbed round tho rained eaasmenta turned the odor of frankincense and myrrh. Tho dy lag ray* of sunlight were as myriads of lighted taper*, the chapel a massive catbe dral. Through the silence rang out in the timr notes of a young man's voice the solemn teens of obedience, chastity and poverty, oven unto death. She torn and paced la anguish the silent aisle. Can anything be more remorseless than memory, which awaken* In every moment of onr solitude a living witmmteour soul's undyingnt**? As she

ealawsr she appeoaehed the

purple outlined ctom and gsilwyred a flow«r ftem It* »talk. Desecration, madam!**

A quick bratih Mr* St, C»U'» parted lips the tones of the priest* who, ttspeKeired, badobeerred the action, feU opoa tar ««*. "I ctare pardeo, fisther, I did DO* mean

it for such. I merely wished toearry Away with me a remembrance of St. Boealie." The storm was past. Once more she was a conventional woman of the world, vim and impassive. As she spoke she glanced up at the priest He was motioning as though carved in stone. Slowly the color died out of her face as she whispered Incredulously "Benedict!"

For a supreme moment each looked Into the other's face. The woman was trembling violently, and her features were Ut with yearning tenderness. The priest's lips moved, as though to speak, but no sound came. To him the mention of her name was sin. Had he not spent the best part of his manhood in penance and prayer, In trying to forget that beautiful face, that form, that voice? Was she not yet satisfied with his sacrifice—with the fact that, rather than be an Impediment to her brilliant marriage, be had ceased to exist?

Why had she again broken In upon his heart's solitude? When he spoke, it was with an effort and in stern tones: *'Why arc you here alone? Where is St. Croix?" "Dead!" was thealmoet inaudible reply. "Dead!" ho repeated in a husky tone, adding Involuntarily. ''Then you are free?"

He could not look away from her. His eyes fell on her fashionable attire* her jeweled fingers, her matured beauty. What an insuperable gulf lay between them!

To her the bitterness of all things had como as his cold, unsympathetic tones fell on her ear.,,While she had suffered he had forgotten. "I came here," she answered In her calm, conventional tones, "for rest and peace, outsido tho world, not dreaming you were here."

She paused. A momentary gleam touched the man. Moved by impulso, ho closed his fingers over tho small cold band that grasped the edgo of tho quaintly carved seat and whispered: 7 "If you had known, what then?"

In an instant she noted tho change in the priest's voice. After all, he was not quite dead to tho world, and a gllmmor of hope woko iu her heart. ''Then I must still have como," she replied passionately, raising her eyes to his face, which was rigid and incredulous. "I am free now and liavo never known happiness since we parted. Wealth, position, all I possess is worthless without you to share them. Como back to the old world again, Benedict. You aro all I care to live for." As sho finished speaking, carried away by hor feelings, she sank at his feet.

Tho priest's face was scarcely less agitated than her own. "I cannot. I dare not. Do I not sin dally In remembering you? Have I not longed for tho sound of your voice, tho touch of your soft hand? Do I not live a double life—outwardly a priest, inwardly a man? C*n vows, penances and prayers chango a man's nature? Does it not rather kill tho soul? May, you have much to answer for." As the last words died upon his lips he scooped for an instant as though In pity and touched hor forehead with his lips. Placing hor arms around his ncck, sho whispered his namo and loworod his head till their lips met. A moment seemed an eternity. Then, thrusting her aside with a cry of anguish, ho sprang away, and sho heard his swift footsteps puss across tho graveyard path.

A fow days later Sir Aleo Vavasour received a noto at his club which bore the Paris postmark, and ho wap missing from tho souial whirlpool for a week, announcing on his return his engagement to Mrs. St. Croix. Ho dcolared ho had met her in Paris, looking positively •jrvretphed after her travols, and had strongly advised her to remain there for a few weeks to dissipate tho onnul sho had endured among the Rhenish mountains and txjjpogaiither good looks before their weddlgijj^day.—Roy Compton In Sketch.

There comos in tho life, of every man who cannot afford it a time of burning unrest, when ho is overpowered by an .uncontrollable desire to live in tho oountry. A railroad man, who doesn't know for the lifo of. him which end pf the plow you hltioh the horses to, is arrays longing to go on a farm. A successful merchant who vaguely knows that you dig potatoes, although by that he rather understands that you mine them, as ydu do coal, hankers, after a certain time of life, for a cheap little place, not too far out of town, where ho can .sink an artesian milk well and raise his own bananas, of which he is very fond. And I once knew an able nnd cmi nent lecturer, who had lectured on "Tho Pyramids, Their Cause and Effect," for 20 years, and who was far more afraid of a horse than a tramp Is of work,* and who thought that cows shed their horns every spring, from which source the brass bauds renewed their supply of instruments.

Well, that man left the platform at Inst and Invested the spoils of many successful lecture tours In a stock farm. We cannot help It. Out of tho dust wo oame. Back to tho soil wo aro drawn. Wo are children of tho earth, and wo do love to creep bock into tho mother amis and get our faces down dose to the sweet old mothor heart when the shadows begin to grow long, when the days of the second childhood como upon us, and tho time draws near when she will take us into her arms for the last tlnv and hush us to sleep on her cool breast*—Robert J. Burdette in Ladles' Home Journal.

A Hudson's Bay Post.

Life at» distant Hudson's Bay post, far f!rom a railway, may seem a very quiet and uninteresting one to dwellers in busy towns, but quiet as it Is tho particular post in the district is the center of all life and animation for all the white men, half breeds and Indians within a range of many miles. There they come to hear the news and bring the backwoods gossip. At any hour of the day one or two Indians or half breeds may be seen listlessly hanging about the store or shop smoking, but talking little. Perhaps thoy have oome in to b»jy something, perhaps they want to sell some skins—or very likely they are only loading.

Often they come to seethe manager simply in the hope of getting an advance of money or of stores on credit, previous to going on a prolonged hunting trip, when, If refused the first time* tjjp? will hang about for days, persistently Und petulantly returning to tho charge. But this advance is often allowed, repayment being taken when the furs come in in the spring.

The Indians look upon the manager of a Hudson's Bay post very much In the light Of a father, and If he is a good bears**! fellow. as he usually l* he In turn eomc« to regard them almost in the light of bis children and to know the each one of them. Bat, like a father with his children, be knows what Is good for them and often In many ways has to dany them to protect them against themasltea.—Blackwood's Magaifne ,, ....

NOVEL BURIAL CASKETS.

An Aadadov Innovation and an pibinf Agent's 8nuwiftil Canr— During the past few weeks Washington has been canvassed by the agent of one of the most peculiar piece* of funeral paraphernalia ever invented. It is a burglar and fireproof ooffin, with so many strange adjuncts that a person BAAiTig it for the first time would throw up his hands in holy horror at the audacity of the inventor and the admirable nerve of a manufacturer that will plaoe such an article on the market

Despite the many ghastly features in connection with these coffins and the almost blasphemous talk of the enterprising agent, this city has proved to be & lucrative field for him to work, and now a number of citizens are equipped with th» strangest burial appliance of the decade The description of the coffin as given by the agent is as follows: "Primarily the coffin is fire and burglar proof. The case is made out of boiler iron hardened with old bone, spruce bark and leather, which forms an enamel that cannot be penetrated by ohisel or drill. It is put together with angle iron and flush rivets. The locks are all on the inside, so constructed with hooks and staples, with a spring behind them, that when a pin is drawn out from the outside the bolts spring down and lock automatically, and the coffin is then locked so that it cannot be opened from the outside. The only per^pn who can unlock and open the strange coffin is the person inside." 5^4 Iff

coffins-^-those

for vaults and those to be interred in graves. The coffin to be placed in a vault is equipped with torpedoes that can be exploded from the inside. The theory of this is that in case a person is buried alive he can throw back the bolts, explode the torpedoes and warn the sexton and thus escape. The ooffin to be placed in a grave has .attached a strong spring and arm. In oase the person inside finds that he wishes to get out all he has to do is to throw back the spring, and this arm is thereby released and cuts its way to the top, exploding a torpedo and warning the keeper of the graveyard.

These coffins are sold at so much per pound, and the first purchaser does not have to pa^r anything down. He simply gives a written guarantee to the manufacturer that he will pay for the coffin from his estate within 15 days after death, or, failing tp do this, the manufacturer can claim his body to do what he may wish with it.—Washington Newa rllCAl

ARGENTINE'S DIGNITY SAVED.*'

Minister Zeballos Proved Equal to the Emergency That Confronted Him. Just before the Minneapolis sailed from hero a few weeks ago for the trial trip which proved so. successful Dr. B. Estanislaus Zeballos, the Argentine Republic's minister to this country, who had been invited to go alcmg as a guest, walked up the gangplank in Cramps' shipyard with a servant.

He was shown tp the room whioh had been reserved for him, and whioh, in view of the crude condition of tho cruiser consequent upon her trial titp, he found plainly furnished. He also discovered that the president of the trir.l board and Chairman Gummings of "ho house committee on naval affairs ..had staterooms that were somewhat moro roomy and better situated, bgt^jyio bgtjtev, furnished. -V,-.'.

Dr. Zeballos at once declared that in his oapacity as minister to the United States'ftom tho Argentine Republic he could not accept any accommodations on the ship which were not equal to those assigned to any other person, and he made a request for abetter room. It was impassible for Captain Sargent to find suoh accommodation or to turn Mr. Cummings or any other official out of the quarters to which he had been assigned. Dr. Zeballos declared that, under these circumstances, ho could not acoompany the ship on tho trip and would leave forthwith.

The officials of the Cramp company expressed th«ir regret very politely, and Dr. Zeballos, with servant trailing behind him, walked down the gangplank and thus preserved the dignity of tha Argentine Republic, but missed the mast beautiful trip that has ever been made.—Philadelphia Reoord.

An Unopprcclatlve Valot. -1'

It is doubtless difficult for a conscientious valet to determine where perquisites end and theft begins, but tho valet of Professor Lenbaeh, the famous Austrian portrait painter, seems to have been more conscientious than most valets. Ho loved order, and no place is so difficult to keep in order as an artist's studio. So he invariably cleared

ORDERS VERSUS 8CRUPLE8.-

A Soldier PmddMd Vsr tice Xu|*t Shooting Charles O. Cedarqtiist, private Company A, Seoond infsntry. statiooed

Omaha, has be^i found guilty of

dis

obeying his superior offioer in refusing beoanseof religious scruples to attend target praotioe orf Sunday aad sentenced 4o be confined at hard labor far a period of six months and to forfeit to the

prec

edent for future oases of a similar liar tnre. The case hiss attracted a great deal of attention in army and religious circles.

The defense was practically limited to the contention that the order, in respect of whioh disobedience was charged, was an unlawful one in that—firsts it enjoined a duty to be performed "on Sunday in violation of orders and regulations limiting Sunday labor in the army to the measure of strict necessity, and, second, that the act required to be done would have been a violation of section 241 of the criminal oode of Nebraska. The decision says: "That a commanding offloer has a discretion under exisiting orders to require target praotioe by his oommand on Sunday in case of necessity is undoubted. The evidenoe in this oase failsvtoflx upon the commanding offloer any abuse of discretion in the issue of the order complained of by the aocused. The legality of that order and the obligation of the aocused to obey it when duly transmitted to him cannot be questioned. It was not for him to judge of the necessity for the issuance of the order. The discretion pertained to bis commanding officer as to whether one existed, and^ whether erroneously or not, it was the duty of the accused to obey. It is oonoeded'that soldiers stationed at Belleview rifle range, Nebraska, who, as individuals, engage in hunting and shooting on Sunday, would be within the provisions of the sections referred to and liable to its penalties, but after oareful consideration the reviewing authority is of the opinion that the state could not make, nor has it by this section or any other legislation to whioh his attention has been called, attempted to make the performance on Sunday of target practice or' anv other duty pertaining to the instruction and discipline of the army a criminal offense."

The occasion is deemed opportune for inviting the attention of the department to the faot that the obligations of military service will never permit a soldier to refuse obedienoe to an order because in his judgment it is unneces-sary.—-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

A real infant phenomenon keeps all the medical men «nd pedagogues of the good old town of Brunswick in a^tatfc! of wonder and delight The littlo son of a local butcher, a baby just 2 years old, can road with jperfect ease anything written or printed in German or Latin characters. A few weeks ago three Brunswick doctors had the baby intro duced to them at the house of one* of the learned gentlemen. The first thing the little ono did when brought into the consulting room was tot stand on his toes at the table, reading out from the books that were lying about When 18 months old, the baby liked books and newspapers better than lollipops and foys, and whatever the parents playfully told him he remembered, with the result that, at the age of 2 years, he reads vvlth perfect ease.—Westminster Gazette.
