KARL AND TARPUS.

', Karl knelt down and took steady aim. I' Then came a flash ancl a report, and allr most simultaneously with the rebound of hia immense rifle the huge, crouching lioness, the black lioness, hurled herself upon him. He was borne down as if by an avalanche.

of them flashed a strange, strange light that quivered the core of his being a light that unnerved his hand and withered his desird to kill.

And it smote him not with fear—for Karl had slain many lions, and his nerves were as steel—but it smote him with sudden, overwhelming remorse.

Thus he, the mighty hunter, was shaken and made to send his bullet flying wide.

And he lay in the grip of death. Though he felt that his end had come, he had that clearness and poise of mind which come in supreme moments.

The noisome breath of the lioness burned his face as he lay crushed into the sand by her weight. He was waiting, with eyes closed, for the beginning of the end, that hideous beginning, but a calm was in his soul, a strange calm. He felt at rest, at peace.

There was a pause. Suddenly the lion snarled, and Karl opened his eyes. Ah, again that weird, reproaching light! It streamed from the glaring, yellow eyes. Into their depths he gazed and gazed till* his mind partly left him. No more he thought of death.

And now the eyes became a piercing blaze of light, which grew and grew till Karl saw before him a broad, shining space,' ....

In the distance flashed a scene. And the soul of the hunter flew toward it. This was the scene:

Humans filled a vast amphitheater. They shook it shotting. Fearsome was "this shouting, even as the howl of a .' myriad pack of wolves. On the faces v-y-was tho look of glee—that glee indescribable—that conies when the passion for blood spilling fills the souL ,r

This passion was upon all—all, from etf iperor to slave. Man was transformed io a human wolf. The wish to kill or

see killed linked, bound all. The impulse of Cain made all akin. It was a feast day to the gods in Rom9, and a mighty, yelling multitude had gathered together to do them homage by seeing t\ man fight with and kill a num. by seeing a man wait for the signal that might bid him drive his gladius into the heart bf a beloved comrade, by seeing a man fight with a beast. Their gods were honored by the flowing and flying of blood. Huge, huge sport watch it And yonder Nero sat, swathed in purple. His eyes gleamed as he witnessed the glorious sport.

Prolonged was the shouting, because Tarpus, a favorite gladiator, had just killed, in single combat, with the gladius, his third man. He was now about to fight yonder Numidian lioness. She was striving to burst the bars of her cage, for she had been without food for three days.

A fttm fellow was Tarpus, with waving, yellow hair that hung afar down his back. Frank was his face, bold was the glance of his blue eye, and he was great of stature.

He had missed. Why For this rea u»u sudaen power Slay nerr wnw spew woo son: As he aimed between her eyes out

And Karl was Tarpus. "Curse the Roman cowards!" the gladiator muttered as he waited, heedless and resentful of Jtlie ovation be was •receiving, for the black lioness to baler forth into tho arena "Oh, to think that I obeyed their cruel mandate that bade mo slay my comrade, Davoro—Davoro. who risked his life for mine in the campaign! But he smiled in my face, as I bent over Km, and siHd, 'Strike, deep,' my Tarpus, if thou lovest mef' and I drove the full of my Hade through his heart, Oh, I, of all men—I, who loved him, thus tj have slain him! Oh, titfight—the fight—it is with me yet 1 Da voro, who was bound to me by ties of: closer than the ties of blood, stands

fore me, his gladius in hand. We cross blades, but our eyes meet not, $nd lo before I know aught, he is lying on the sand beneath me, while I stand o'er him with uplifted blade. Then I look up to yonder sea of coward faces, and see thumbs which point downward. Aye, around and around I look, bitt from all sides the vile gestures come, crowdi^f, overwhelming my soul They bid mo to slay. And then Davoro's voice my ear, as ... to falter not, but kill him swiftly. Oh! And the face of Tarpus was softened and sad as he looked across the blood red-

light out his heart's blood for the amuse xuent of the brutal Romans! Visions of outstretched hands and loving, sorrowful fiices caucus to him from across far, wild seas. The arena, with its blood lust, ita pitilessness, was forgotten in a flood of old, tender memories.

Suddenly he looked up at the shouting Romans. Scorn was in his face. They looked upon him tout as a human fighting beast, and he wished fiercely that he could kill them all with one thrust from his blade. His heart hard

ened. He felt that he waa indeed alone. Hia glance sank and fell upon the black lioness. He wiped £he blood off the blade of hia gladius and waited. No long did he wait, for with ft mighty, resounding roar she tore from the cage into the center of the arena. The door had been suddenly flung open.

She paused, turning her head and sniffing the air. Tarpus walked straight toward her. Suddenly she noticed him, and she bounded, roaring, almost to hia side. She crouched far a final spring, and Tarpus, sinking on one knee, and with gladius ready, prepared to fight to the death. The vast crowd was hushed, awaiting breathlessly the instant when the brute and the man would meet in the death struggle.

But here oocurred a thing inexplicable. As the eyes of the lioness and the man met both paused suddenly and remained as if transfixed, the man kneeling, the lioness crouohing.

What had happened? Why did she not obey the prompting of her instinct to rend him asunder? Did some subtle, sudden power stay her? What spell was

this man and beast? Could it be that they were kindred souls, who were onoe together, and who recognized each other?

Who could tell? But whatever the spell or bond it bad a strange effect upon Tarpus, for he, with a look in his face indescribable, stood upright, and laying his hand upon the lioness walked over with her to the place where Nero sat and insulted and reviled him. Then he became frenzied, and called loudly for the Romans to come and kill him—the lioness roaring the while.

All were amazed and terriflod. Surely a weird, nameless happening! Their hearts were cold with fear.

And archers were ordered out They killed the gladiator and the lioness with their arrows.

A party of French soldiers, who were stationed at a post in the interior of Algeria, came across a man uninjured, butlying senseless in the sand. An immense rifle lay by his side. It was KarL— Bart Kennedy in London Sun.

Naming a Girl Baby.

The most popular name to bestow on a baby girl at this time is Dorothy evi dentiy, for out of 178 girls' uarues in the catalogues of the babies whose portraits were shown at a recent baby display 14 bore Dorothy. Nest iu favor was Marjorie, spelled even Marjonrio Ruth, which is generally supposed to be the favorite, owing to its connection with the White House, wasn't in the race for popularity, as only three infants were so named in the returns Helen or Helene came nest in favor, Kate or Katherine holding its own, and Mary and Marie yrorQ well ahead along with Gladys and Elizabeth. Such names as Beatrice, Josephine, Anita, Eleanc., Jessica, Alice, Madeline, Florence and Rachel were twice represented", but aside from that the widest variety figured.

It is evident that much -greater inde pendence is shown now than fot*iJTlyin christening the feminine portion of tho population. When two or mdre children in a family were represented in the catalogue it looked as if there had been an attempt to select names in harmony. In one family there were Maurifel, Dorothy. Marion and Marjorie, a happy combination Tho most distinctive trio possibly were Honor, Gillian and Rufus Barr. If that family doesn't turn out well then there is nothing in the effect of a name Drenua was one of the oddest names Serane another. There were two Bettys, one dear Peggy, a Mollie, three Virginias, one Lorna Doone and a Yolande.—New York Commercial.

JERSEY'S WOMAN LAWYER.

Miss Mary Phtlbmok Admitted t« Ww Wa* After a FI«M» After a fight lasting 18 months Miss IJary Philbroolt of 104 Magnolia avenue, Jersey City, has succeeded in getting herself admitted to the bar of New Jersey. MissPhilhrook is the first woman fotnhe tho examination iu that state, and boiutn fche could make even so much pi-ogre*. Ue had to fight the supreme court thruUi,n the legislature and practically force the justices of that cfourt to grant the required permission. The examination, though rigid, did not bother the young woman, and she passed with high honors and today is the only woman lawyer in the state of New Jersey.

Miss Philbrook is the daughter of a lawyer and has a brother who is a lawyer. She has been interested in all things pertaining to the law for years, and with the idea of studying for amusement rather than for profit she entered the office of Corporation Attorney James F. Minturn of Hobuken several years ago. In addition to her regular work she read lawbooks and studied complicated cases that came into the office until she became so thoroughly conversant with law that on the advice of her em: ployers she decided to make application to the supreme court for admission to the bar.

She made the application at Trenton in February, 1804, and Justice Depew promptly refused to allow her to take the examination on the ground that there was no law in the state providing for the admission of women. Nothing daunted, Miss Philbrook started in single handed to fight the supreme court If there was no law for the admission of women, she argued, there should be one, and she drew up a bill herself covering the point, which bill she succeeded in having presented to the legislature

She spent almost all her time in Trenton working for her bill, and when the bill was turned over to a legislative committee she obtained permission to appear before the commission and argue in its favor. She did go before the committee and made a speech the result of which was that Ihe bill went through, and then Miss Philbrook filed her application once more, and this time she was informed that she might take the examination.

The young woman began the examination on Tuesday and finished it on Wednesday afternoon. Thursday morning it was announced that she had successfully passed both the oral and writ-' ten examinations, and shortly after noon she was sworn in.

Miss Philbrook is a tall, slim young woman, with black hair and sparkling black eyes. She is modest, and when a reporter saw her yesterday afternoon she was not at all eager to talk about her case. "I understand that I am tho first woman lawyer the state of IJfcw Jersey," she said, "and I am very proud'of it but, above all things, I desire to avoid publicity. I did not go into the thing with tho idea of obtaining notoriety, but simply because I believed that it was my due, having studied law conscienti ous ly for severa 1 years. I found plenty of obstacles in the way, btifc haying once started to get there I realized that it would never do to give up, and then, again, I thought it would be good practice removing these obstacles, and I went at it in the best way I knew how. Fortunately I was successful. ', "1 have not laid out any plans as yet, though I will remain in the offico where I have been for some time. There I will do all the legal work I am called upon to do by my employers and shall at the same time handle as much business for myself as I can get. I am averse to doing court worjc and will confine myself as much as possible to office practice. If it becomes necessary at any time, however, for me to enter the courts, I shall not hesitate to do. so. For tho present, though, I shall probably go on. in the same? way that I havo for the past year*, Ono thing about my viotory makes mehappier than anything else, and that Is that it has been my lot to open up the field of law to women in the state of New Jersey. That I regard as my greatest triumph."

Miss Philbrook takes an interest in all things pertaining to women and is a member of the State Suffrage association, which* is now fighting for school suimige in New Jersey. Her connection with woman's affair*, however, she will not discuss, as she gays she has no deh:vo to be promi:' ut in woman's rights movements.—Now York Sun

Woman's Pay

Thelaill to provide for anew distri button of the school fund so as to ma terially reduce the amount awarded to Philadelphia and Pittsburg and the bill to give women schoolteachers the same pay as men teachers for the same Work were both strangled in the senate committee on education. Both these bills should have been discussed and voted upon on their merits. The gratification felt in Philadelphia over the defeat of the attempt to reduce the city's share of the state appropriation is widespread, but it was a shame to continue the unjust discrimination between male and female teachers. This is a relic of barbaric inequality which the state cannot longer afford to stamp with its approval —Philadelphia Record.

Ulll^Vrat Make a CtaN* Showing* The demand for space in the Woman's building at the Cotton States and International exposition has been so great that the woman's board has been compelled to ask for an appropriation for an annex. The matter has received Ate fa* vorable consideration of the finance committee and will probably be approved by the executive board. The activity and the amount of labor performed by the women of thin department are phenomena!, considering the means at their disposal, and the results attained *0 far are more than astonishing. They have stirred ao much interest in most of the itates that an overwhelming demand 'oar space has been made upon the mantgemenk—New York Tribuna

Anew departure has been made at the New York Exchange For Women's Work, which is one of the most progressive of such institutions, in the opening pf a room in their building, 18 East Thirtieth street, for the accommodation of ladies who are coming to town to do shopping through the summer. Here every convenience will be supplied. Parceli will be kept there is a telephone and messenger service in the building a good lunobeon is served after 18 o'clock every day, and bouillon, Iced tea, lemonade, eto,, may be had at all hours, excepting Saturdays, when the exchange closes at noon dwingthe summer months.'

A subscription of $8 entitles any one to the use of the room for the season. Single tickets for the day may be had at the cashier's desk for 50 cents. The managers of the exchange trust that, with the added attraction of a comfortable waiting room, there may be an increase in tho number of visitors to the rooms of the society and a large patronage, not only in the luncheon room, but in the various departments, and it is hoped that what is usually a dull season may be a prosperous one for the consignors, all women who are faying to support themselves and in many cases their families.—New York Times

Tlie Pioneer Woman In Journalism. Mrs, Cornelia Walter Richards has been brought into notice heto by the occurrence recently of her seventy-fifth birthday. She was the first woman editor in the country. .The Boston Transcript was started as a very small evening paper toward 60 years ago by Dutton & Wentworth, a firm of Boston printers who had the state printing. They engaged Lynde M. Walter, a cultivated gentleman, to edit it. His health soon failed, and he became too ill to do much manual work. In this emergency his sister, Miss Cornelia Walter, acted as his amanuensis. When he died, Miss Walter was engaged to take his place. This was before the time that woman's rights were much talked of. The Transoript had a peculiar tea table sphere, and Miss Walter successfully fitted into it. The paper had not a wide general scope, though thoro was something like a digest of the more important news of the day iu it, which Miss Walter prepared, and she also provided what was thought necessary of. the local news of Boston with the aid of one reporter, her sole assistant. She edited The Transcript 'ifi thisjway for a few years and constantly wrote for its columns, leaving the paper to marry a gentleman of pecuniary means.—Hartford Courant.

V. 7 ,1 Plucky Miss Peck. Women are climbing these days in more ways than one, it seems. AMiss Peck, who is called "a scholarly young j,wolnan,'' of Provictenco, is going to attempt to climb the Matterhorn this •summer. While studying in Athens some years ago Miss Peck ascended Hymettus and Pentlicns, and was so delighted with the experience that she has been an advocate of high climbing ever since. In fact, her enthusiasm led her during a later trip to the Pacific coast to climB'Mount Shasta, a distance of 18,006 feet. The Matterhorn is a very difficult peak to climb. Edward Whymper, the famous mountain climber,after eight unsuccessful attempts was the first to climb it, in 1865, but the occasion itself was a very tragic one, as four of his companions by the misstep of one fell 4,000 feet down the precipice and were dashed to pieces. It is to be hoped that

Miss Peck will make her perilous journey in safety if for no other reason than that she carries a vast deal of erudition in that head which she takes skyward. She has been professor of Latin in Smith college and has spoken on art and archaeology before the National Geographical society, the American Geographical society and many colleges, institutes and clubs.

A Widow's Mourning.

A widow who wishos to be properly gowned chooses the material known as eudora cloth, which is really the finest brand of henrietta, and as it can be got in different weights is adapted to all seasons, writes Isabel A. Mallon in an article on "Mourning and Its Usages" in The Ladies' Home Journal. Of course the jet black is chosen, for what is known as "blue black" when trimmed with crape looks almost like navy blue. A suitable toilet to be worn during the summer shows a ffkirt of eudora cloth made after the received flaring style and having set in at each side of the front width two side plaits of crape that extend from the waist to the edge of the skirt The bodice is around draped one with a high collar of crape and a plait of crape coming just do\yn the center of the front in loop fashion, its end being concealed under a crape belt. The sleeves are of the cloth and shape in to the arms, and have for a finish three narrow folds of crape, while on the outer edge of each are set six small crape buttons. The bonnet is a modified Marie Stuart, made of crape, with dull blaok strings and a white widow's cap showing from under the edge.

Suffrage In South Carolina. The patience and perseverance with which the woman's suffrage leaders are proselytising are well illustrated by the fact that even in such states as South Carolina and Georgia their campaign goes on without resting. As fast as any set of speakers are compelled to return to their home and domestic duties, their places are filled by another group, and every movement, change and conversion cf men or women, the formation of every club, car claw, is carefully reported and recorded at the national headquarters in Washington, the campaign head quarters in New York and the press headquarters in Boston. In thin manner every one interested in the. subject can easily learn the exact condition of affairs in any portion of the Union up to within 80 days. No better working or more aomprehensive political machinery was aver devised.—New York Mail and Ex-
