    1 A SINGULAR LOVE~
T wu in the Rue
du Luxembourg, op
posite one of the
gratings of the Dar
den. Every time I
passed there, after
lectures, accompa
nied by my friend
end professor, Dr.
Rebaud, I saw the
latter raise his head
and send a smiling,
anecuonaie muo
salute* toward a window on the second
floor of a particular hotel. A hand then
waved there for an Instant and a young
girl’s pale visage, pretty In spite of Its
sickly languor, appeared between the
guipure curtains.
The vacation came on. My professor
left Paris and I grew so busy In pre
paring for my medical examination
that I entirely forgot his youthful pa
tient of the Rue du Luxembourg.
In the month of November, however,
I happened to pass there again. The
little hotel, so coquettishly aristocratic,
had a mournful look. It was closed up.
The first time I saw the doctor I
asked him about his patient. His brow
at once darkened and he burst' out with:
"You must have seen In the papers
the arrest, not long ago, of the famous
oosmopolltan swindler whose real name
is still a mystery, but who called him
self Don Jose, Comte de Pena-Veja!”
Noticing my astonishment, he added:
“You don’t see the connection, but
how could you? It’s a strange story.
Listen:
xne comte de M- and his wire
had everything that could make a fam
ily happy. They were rich and loved
each other. The husband was a retired
general of division whose perfect man
ners had the strong serenity of those
born to command. The Comtfcse was
somewhat haughty, but Imposing.
"They had one child, a daughter,
born during the Franco-Prusslan war,
at their chateau In La Touralne,whither
the Oomtessje had retired. The Prus
sians occupied the whole country. The
General was a prisoner In Germany an 1
newB was obtained with the utmost
difficulty. The child, born under these
terrible circumstances, came Into the
world deaf and dumb. In the clutch of
this incurable Infirmity, her poor
little Intelligence was very toil
somely developed, so that, after long
years of effort, the young girl could
barely manage to read and write.
"The General and his wife concen
trated all their love on this sore spot
of their life. He was admirable, she
stoical. They passed their existence
with their daughter, winter in the hotel
you are acquainted with, summer partly
at their chateau, partly at a Norman
seaside resort where they rented a villa.
"It was at this seaside villa that the
tragedy began.
"As life In such localities exacts less
constraint than In Paris, the Infirm
yaung girl was allowed to go out at
tended only by a governess. I had
recommended long walks In the whole
some, strengthening sea air.
“One day it' was noticed that she had
grown sad and languid. The cause of
this strange condition was sought for;
It was foupd In the pocket of one of her
dresses. It was a laconlo note: 'I have
loved you since I first set eyes on you.
How happy I should be If you would
love me a little!' This note was signed
Jose, Comte de Pena-Veja.
“It was a thunder clap In the villa.
"Never had the parents thought that
their daughter oould be loved and marry
like the rest. They questioned her by
means of a slate. She wrote: ‘I love
him and want to be his wife.' The
father made Inquiries about this Don
Jose and the Information was deplor
able. Fearing a scandal, the family
hurrldly departed for Paris.
"That winter the young girl had a dry
cough which made me uneasy. 1 was
afraid of consumption.’ The ensuing
summer It was decided on my advice
not to quit Paris, as traveling was dan
gerous for the patient. It was then you
noticed her at the window.
"A detail struck the parents. At cer
tain hours, as she sat there amid the
cushions of her extension chair, flashes
of life would suddenly pass through
her. A reaction would be produced, but

“THfe END HAS COME,”
SOLEMNLY.
SAID
It was only temporary, for, after a few
Instants, the patient would fall back
upon her pillows, more pallid and
mournful than before.
“During one of these reactions, her
mother chaned to look out-of-doors.
Don Jose was standing behind the grat
ings of the Garden, very handsome and
elegantly dressed, keeping his eye
steadfastly directed toward the hotel.
The Comtesse closed the curtains and
removed her daughter to another room
on the opposite side of the house.
“Some days later, as I was finishing
my examination, the results of which
were far from satisfactory, the General
said te me:
71 ‘I cannot see my daughter die. This
Don Jose is an adventurer, but he holds *
my child's life in his hands. Well, I
will buy It of him. There will be no
marriage portion, for he would scatter
It to the winds, but I will give my I
daughter—his wife—an allowance large
enough to satisfy him. To-morrow, as
• eoon as .the man appears in the Luxem
bourg, I will go down and bring him
, here. My poor child must live!'
“The Countess gave a start.
“ 'Tomorrow!' she exclaimed excited
ly, then, calming herself, added: ‘Sly
dear, wait a week. It would be so
sudden. We must accustom the poor
child by degrees to the realisation of
her unfortunate dream.*
"It was so settled. For several days I
4M Mi ass the Comtesse. 0hs was ai
most always out—making family visits,
as bor husband told me.
“The fatal period came at last. We
were all assembled around the patient.
The general had that grave air which
Is caused by the approach of a sacri
fice that cannot be avoided. His wife
stood as if frozen in her resignation.
She had just come home, navlng spent
the morning In those mysterious visits
which had occupied her for the past
week. The deaf mute was seated at
the window, crushing me lace of her
pillows with her frail bust. Her gentle
face was radiant with joy. She knew
that she was going to see Don Jose,
that soon nothing would separate him
from her any longer. It was to her
father—she knew that too—she owed
this happiness. And her tender glance
thanked the old soldier, who felt the
tears trembling on his eyelashes.
"Don Jose appeared, as usual, at the
turn of a path In the garden: the gen
eral put on his hat and was stiffen
ing himself as a preliminary to going
on his fateful errand.
"But, at that moment, a din arose
from the street. Instinctively he halt
ed. We hurried to me window and
looked out.
A crowd had formed close to tne
grating of the X uxembourg. In Its
midst Don Jose, held by four men, was
struggling and shouting. Ills elegant
garments were soiled and torn; his hat
was gone and his hair was In confu
sion.
"He was thrown Into a fiacre. Two
policemen got Inside the vehicle with
him; another sprang upon the seat
with the driver. All this had lasted
but an Instant.
"I can still see Don Jose, with his
eyes full of hate, shaking his clenched
flat threateningly in the direction of the
hotel as the policemen were dragging
him away.
"At the same instant the General ut
tered a cry:
V ‘My daughter!’
“He sprang towards Her.
" 'Doctor, look!’ cried he; ‘what alls
her?’
“The poor child's head had fallen to
one side and her face was white as
chalk. A slender thread of blood
marked her mouth with a red line. J
felt no throb of either pulse or heart.
“ ‘The end has come!’ I said solemnly.
“The Comtesse had sunk on her knees
and was weeping, aB she held In hers
the dead girl’s hand. The General
stood as if in a dream, without a tear.
With a cold look, he showed his wife
the crowd outside which was talking
of what had happened as It dispersed.
" 'It was you who warned the police,’
said he, ’it was you who prepared that
arrest; you have killed our child!’
“ 'I have saved her!’ firmly returned
the mother, as she still knelt, repeated
ly kissing her daughter's hands.’’

Dr. Rebaud had finished his story.
He added:
"Don Jose de Pena-Vesa Is accused of
the crime of the Rue Rodler and will
soon be tried at the Cour d’Assises.”
MONARCH OP HIS SPECIES.
Killing of an Alligator That Measured
Fourteen Feet In Length.
To F. A. Dennettee and to his
brother, Elton D. Dennettee, belongs the
credit for the killing of Fort George's
famous ’gator, a giant In slse and so
old that his back is crusted with bar
nacles and moss. But their encounter
with the saurian was not' without ex
citement and some damage to the hunt
ers. They found the 'gator in one of the
small creeks that run through the Is
land, sneaked upon him in their boat
and let him have a bullet from a Win
chester. The big fellow gave a roar of
rage and pain and at once started for
the small craft, his jaws wide open and
his tall lashing the water Into yeasty
foam. They jammed an oar into the
'gator’s mouth and he crunched it Into
pulp, and then they took the other to
stem his onslaughter, but he broke that,
too, and ground it Into kindling wood.
When almost upon the boat he swung
his tail against It and nearly upset It.
Elton Dennettee was knocked over
board, and no sooner had the 'gator
seen him than he made for him, and If
the young man had not hastily scram
bled on board he would certainly have
met an awful fate. The two men had
two pairs of oars and with these they
managed to keep the little craft away
from a swing of the saurian’s tall, which
would have crushed in the sides as if
they were paper. While one of the
hunters kept dear of the enraged beast
the other kept pumping lead into him
from the Winchester until the water
was covered with red foam, telling that
the monster was badly hurt. Finally
he appeared to give up the ghost, turned
over on his back and floated upon the
surface. They lassoed and towed him
ashore, but' the 'gator was not dead,
and still had any quantity of fight In
him, and so, when one of the sportsmen
ventured too close the 'gator gave a
lash with his tall, knocked the young
fellow upside down and paralysed his
legs for the tame being and went for
him, grabbing his foot in his frightful
jaws, and inflicting a painful and per
haps serious injury. It was Just two
minutes before the jaws of the beast
could be pried open, and it was an hour
later before the last spark of life fled
from the reptile.
would Contract Bank Currency.
At the treasury department it Is said
that Sovereign’s plan for boycotting na
tional bank notes, If carried out, would
prove more harmful'than beneficial to
the Interests of the country, as It would
contract the currency tp the extent of
>211,000,000 without injuring national
banks. “It would not hurt the national
banks at all,” said O. P. Tucker, deputy
comptroller of the currency. "If people
should refuse to receive their notes the
banks would simply present them to
the United States treasury for redemp
tion and receive legal tender notes,
which they would continue to use In
their business. There are only >211,000,
000 of national bank notes In circula
tion, while there are >950,000,000 of other
kinds of money outstanding.”—Ex.

PAINLK89 DENTISTRY.
01 Hart an Kxparleoca With Laughing
Gal and Will K«ver Forj?«t lt«
“Does it hurt very much to have
a tooth pulledP” inquired a Boston
Herald man of a dentist.
"That depends,” was the reply.
"If the affected tooth happens to be
a molar, with the roots at right an
gles with each other or if it is de
cayed so as to leave the nerve un
covered or if it is worn down even
with tho gums, so that it is neces
sary *o dig the flesh away in order to
get u good hold with tho forceps,
then the chances are that you will
kick a little.”
Then the tall man trembled from
head to foot, and in a shaking voice
said: “What do you think of that
one?” accompanying his words by
opening his mouth to its fullest ex
tent and indicating with his fingor
the seat of his trouble.
The doctor took up a small instru
ment with a little round looking
glass at one end, and, returning it
into the cavern that yawned before
him, made a careful inspection of tho
interior.
"That looks like a stubborn old
fellow,” remarked the doctor, as he
replaced tho instrument upon the
working table.
“What would you advlseP” timidly
Inquired the tall man.
“Laughing gas,” replied the
doctor.
“Will I be oblivious to the
pain?”
“Entirely so.”
The tall man settled himself in the
operating chair, and the doctor in
serted between the patient’s teeth au
old champagne cork. Then he placed
a funnel-shaped piece of rubber ove^*
the tall man’s mouth and nose, anil
told him to breathe heavily. Gradual
ly consciousness gave away under
the influence of ’the gas, but not
until the man to be operated upon
had suffered tho sensation of being
smothered under an old-fashioned
feather pillow.
The tall man was now in dream
land. He first imagined that he was
on his way to the world’s fair and
when the train was on a down grade
and going sixty miles an hour the
wheels left the track. The air
brakes broke and the oars rushed
along at a terrible speed. It was
with the greatest difficulty that the
dreamer kept in his berth. Tremen
dous jolting was caused by the
wheels running over the ties. The
suspense was something awful; the
wreck of the train was inevitable.
The car was filled with the shrieks
of the torrifled passengers, mingled
with the crash of glass and the rat
tle of the train. Suddenly there was
a deafening report and a tremendous
concussion, and tho cars appeared to
crumble away.
The tall man found himself in
total darkness, but suddenly, to his
horror, ho discovered a streak of
lurid flame through the wreckage,
which told him that ho would be
roasted alive if immediate succor
did not reach him. He could hear
voices directly over him, but do as
he would not a sound could he utter.
The flames were making rapid pro
gress toward the place where he was
confined, and their hot breath was
beginning to singe his whiskers
Then came the crash of an axe direct
ly over his head. The first blow
struck him squarely in the back of
the neck, and he felt that his time
had surely come. The next one cut
off his left ear, and the third opened
up a space in his cranium the size of
a saucer. The fire had now crept up
to his feet, and the left one was
slowly roasting, when another blow
from the axe, greater than all the
rest, knocked his head clean from his
body. He experienced a singular
buzzing in his oar; there was a gleam
of light in tho distance and with a
bound he returned to consciousness.
The doctor was standing over him,
holding a double tooth in his for
ceps.
“That was an old stager, and no
mistake. IIow he did hang! It took
all my strength to dislodge him,"
and the doctor wiped his dripping
forehead with his handkerchief.
“Where a-a-am I?” were the first
words of the tall man.
“Why, right here in my office,”
responded the doctor. “You would
have had a tough time if you hadn’t
taken the gas.”
“Well, if it had been rougher than
it actually was I would now be a
corpse,” and the toll man paid the
$1.50, and went out into the street
feeling as if he had been walking in
a treadmill for a week.

WANTED TO BE A MAN.
The Tone Women Who Went to Ott
<»to In Hen*e Clothing.
Miss Hettle Dickey, the young lady
from Delaware who reeenty visited Chi
cago In men’s clothing, has.told the com
plete story of her adventures. It ap
pears that for years she has had an
overwhelming desire to be a man. The
Impulse to see the world as a man sees
It grew upon her to such an extent that
she Anally decided to leave home. She
secreted a suit of her brother’s clothes
In the woodshed, and soon after noon
on March 24 she slipped quietly Into
the shed and put on masculine attire.
Then she walked calmly out of the yard
In front of her home to the road lead
ing to Kiamensl station on the Balti
more & Ohio railroad. It was then
about 1:30 o’clock In the afternoon.
She followed the tracks three miles
without meeting anyone. Then two
men came In sight, and, for fear of de
tection, she turned aside Into a field
and made her way to Newark, where
she took the 3 o'clock train for Balti
more. By this time her parents were
searching the country for her In the im
mediate vicinity of their home. Reach
ing Baltimore, she stopped for an hour.
Then she bought a ticket to Chicago,
and left on the 7 o'clock train over the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad. All the
money she had on leaving home was
$20. She reached Chicago on the night
of March 26 with $3.48 in the pocket of
her trousers. Her original intention
was to go to Denver or San Francisco.
In both of those places she has relatives.
After her arrival in the Windy City
she was at a loss to know where tt lay
her head. She was afraid to go to a
lodging-house, so she concluded to walk
the streets rather than run the risk of
being detected. For two nights she
tramped the sidewalks of Chicago be
fore finding a place of shelter. At last
she found a big lumber yard near the
lake, and there she spent five nights
among the piles of lumber. What little
food she ate during this time she pur
chased at cheap restaurants. In all of
these she seated herself at tables along
side men. For three nights she occupied
a corner In a box car standing on a side
track of the Illinois Central railroad.
One of the employes discovered her and
demanded an explanation of her pres
ence. She maintained her fortitude and
succeeded In escaping arrest. She went
on in this way for two weeks until, over
come by exhaustion, she fell 111, and
was removed to the Cook County Hos
pital. The incessant tramping and the
clumsiness of her brother's shoes caused
Bevere injuries to her feet. Upon re
moval of the shoes at the hospital flesh
came oft with them. A diagnosis of her
case was made by the physicians in
charge. While making an examination
of her lungs he discovered her sex. She
told him her name was Hettle Dicker
son, but subsequently admitted that It
was Hettle Dickey, and that her home
was In Stanton, Del. After listening to
her narrative the doctor notified her
parents. On April 24, one month from
the time of her disappearance, she wrote
to her mother, describing her sufferings
and asked forgiveness. She reached
home a week ago, and, with the excep
tion of a slight feebleness, she was none
the worse for the experience.
LANGUACE OF THE FLAGS.
What They Are Supposed to Bepresen
In Death or Life.
To "strike the flag” is to lower the na
tional colors In token of submission,
says the School Journal. Flags are used
as the symbol of rank and command,
the officers using them being called flag
officers. Such flags are square, to dis
tinguish them from other banners. A
"flag of truce” is a white flag displayed
to an enemy to Indicate a desire for a
parley or consultation. The white flag
is the sign of peace. After a battle par*
ties from both sides often go out to the
field to rescue the wounded or bury
the dead, under the protection of
a ■ white flag. The red flag is a
sign of defiance, and Is often used by
revolutionists. In our service It Is a
mark of danger, and shows a vessel to
be receiving or discharging her powder.
The black flag Is the sign of piracy. The
yellow flag shows a vessel to be at quar
antine, and Is the sign of contagious dis
ease. A flag at half-mast means mourn
ing. Fishing and other vessels return
with a flag at half-mast to announce the
loss or death of some of the men. Dip
ping a flag is lowering It slightly and
then hoisting it again, to salute a vessel
or fort. If the President of the United
States goes afloat, the American flag Is
carried in the bows of his barge or hoist
ed at the main of the vessel on board of
which he is.

The report of Nasrullah Khan’s im

to be borrowed from what actually took

A Judge of Faces.
Cecil Rhodes is a man of very simple
tastes, remarkably unaffected, and
plain-spoken. He has an iron will, but
is soft-hearted, and is a philanthropic
dreamer as well as a man of deeds. Mr.
Rhodes judges men very quickly, and
by their faces. By merely looking at u
man once he can make up his mind
what sort of a character he has to deal
with. Once a friend wrote to him ask
ing him to do something for a young
man who was anxious to go to South
Africa. The King of the Cape replied
to this effect: “Send me his photograph
and I’ll let you know by return mail
whether I can do anything for him or
not.”—Ex.

mainly this country, controls £1,200,

Great Britain, France, Germany, Bel
