OUR SATURDAY NI3HT.
TSS KOA27RI& SSA.
While wending our way hym,,wjrd
after a day of toil, a strange episode
came to our observation that calls for
sympathy, and is worth relating, as a
warning lesson to those who hesitate
on the brink of doing that which re
quires concealment from the world.
A iittle boy, in tattered garments,
and a sailor's hat that quite overshad
owed his brow, came up, with a
'Rleic, tnhtci, cou'd you find it in
your heart to stop and listen to a poor
unfortunate boy's story!"
A pair of blue pvm that must have
oiught their light from the ?kie, look
ed up entrcdtingly. They could not
be resisted despite tho vision of a cold
dinner, and loved ones watching at the
window, with time coming very long.
"Well, little fellow, your face be
speaks in your favor. L-t us btcp in
to tlii.t xtuirwny-out of thu bltistcring
cold and sleet, and you may be Mire of
a faithful listener, if you will promise
not to be too long."
The stairs were dry, and the hall
was warmed hi a register, for we were
in the entrance to some line LJro.idwuy
offices. Nearly all but thaj'anitor had
left the building-, as it was nearly six
o'clock, and wcalthly, professional
men do not usually delve in business
iinuuti much niter three in thoafter
uoon. So we sat down on the stairs
and attended to the little fellow's tale.
'lou are good sir, to mind a lagged
urchin. I do not often meet any One
who goes out of his way to be kind to
me." '
"Do not cry, my lit lis man, your
tears reveal nothing but sorrow and
distress, which a man need not spend
time (o turn to the right or left to see,
a3 they are everywhere visible."
With an effort the boy restrained
his grief and' began :
"My father is a rich man. He lives
on Fifth avenue, in a grand manion.
I dare not go to his house and claim a
home, lie has threatened to have my
mother aud I put out of his way if'l
ever molest him by entering his house.
do not csustly understand how it all
is. It seems straugo to mo that his
other children have any better right
to bis care and to nice things thau 1
have. Rut mother never wants me to
talk about it. When I insist upou
knowing, she tells me I am an illegiti
mate child, and that I would disgrace
both her and my neh father if I told
anyone who I am.
"Why he never comes any more to
sec us ib more than I know. He used
to love mother, and came often to our
humble home. I loved him very much
as he always brought me pretty toys
and Candy, when ho ran down from
the city to stay over Sunday, as he
often did.
"My mother is the loveliest woman
I ever saw. Father oflsu told her so.
I have heard him sayit. I love her
more than I do my own life. She is
patient, ko sweet-tempered, so angelic.
When I was eight years old, father
sent me away to school. It was a great
grief to poor mother to be left alone.
Rut she :ovod me loo well to deprive
me of an cducaliuu. L learned very
fast, and in a year got to the head of
my class and was promoted. I remain
i cd four years in this school, where 1
met the tons of rich men, and I went
ftueid of them all. At thirteen, I was
placed in a clas to prepare fir college.
One promise my father exacted of inc.
and mother cntr-.ated, that I should
never forget it He said I must never
tell whose son, I was. 1 was ent un
der an assumed name, as a poor boy,
who was being educated at the expense
of this gcneious gentleman, my father,
who was respected and feared by the
teavbers. I was not old enough for
two or three years to feel the fling of
a charity scholar. Rut as I progressed
in learning-, I wa tatintedr into know

and I wondered why we live! in a oor
thanty when he was aoich, and it by
mother never went to the city?
"I asked thatii why thry did not
move away from the dreary md place,
where there was no comfort, muchieSa
luruy ?
"Mother looked frightened, father
became very angry, and .-aid "I had
fetter not ask questions."
? Rcfore I went kick to school on
Monday morning, I heard him ray,
'Sin. tiling mu3t be done ; that boy
kRovfettoo much. - Ltty, give him to
me ; 'lwitl waltQ a mia-ol himyyu
will be proud of.'
"fo thi my laothi'r ou'y said, 'And
what wi.l I do ? You are not coming
hcrcafur, you have saM, ani now you
would rob me of my only j.iy.'
" 'Non-euso, you ought to think of
the boy'& wellare. Women aro cry
baby iuconai-teucicj. There is no way
of uiaaagiug them if they get their
hearts scu'
'.My mother rose to her feet and
looked itiore indignant thin I oversaw
her before. Her face was very pale
.when she said, 'Robctt, God w.li judge
betweeu you and I. Our account can
not be rettlcd in this world. My
wrongs are too deep. Rut our by
shall decide this matter for himself.
He shall not be an unwilling sharer ol
my furkirn life.'
" 'So be it,' answered father.
" 'Come here to me, Run,' said he.
'You asked to leave this dreary place
forever. Tou may go with me, sir, if
you will, and I will make a gcntlemun
of you. You shall have hures of your
own to ride and drive in Central Park,
and go into my otfice to leuin the bu,
iness after you leave college. ill you
go?'
"My heart buunded with delight.
It seemed to me that the !.- which
had misted my childhood were clearing
away in sun ighL
"'And you will take mother too,
will voir not, sir,' ctied I, with conQ
deuce and pleasure.
"Miiidyour business about ycur

city. Wiil you go with him ami leave
your mamma here alone ?'
"At this my lather exclaimed with
rage, 'Madam, you arc overstepping
the bounds of my liberality. It is more
than you had a right to expect, tho I
ever acknowledged that boy as my s&p
1 did it because I loved you. You
have worn out my love by ciying and
moping your life away for year. Rut
I like the b iy and will have him, or
you shall both bo sorry.'
" 'May I tell the boys atseho;.! that
you are my real father?' I asked.
'They call me a pauper now, and it
makes me so wretched when I know it
is fake.'
'You must say you are my adopt
ed son ; and as such you shall go into
my family to live with my children.'
" 'Your children? Where arc thpy,
father? Have I brothers and listers?'
" 'Well, not exactly. You see,
Rurt, you must choose between your
mother and me. Then we will arrange
everything.'
"Mother m moved with inten-e
and conflicting emotions. She held
her peace as long as she could, and
then she said :
" 'My child, you arc the unfortu
nate victim of my misplaced, misguid
ed love. Your father deceived me
with false promises. He was u widow-

"I have finished with you both, and

"Then ho left in. I did not want

"I went home at vacation, and
there I have been ever since. My

I take care of her and do the house

"Will you com' and sec us sir?"
a-ked th-i little fellow wlu.ii he had
Gni:hed his ator.
"Ye. To morrow.""
And oo wo uvul. Tito parn.tnniuid;
at a little station an hour Irom Nuvr"

promised to do.
A bri-k walk of twenty minute?
brougt u to tho sea-shore.
A few fishermen's huts were jilted
iterc and there, but tho chances for
life except for the fi-hes weie bar
ren indeed.
Further along, iu a chimp of trees,
stood a srnsli hou?o. Qn:y for tho
pretry-curtaincd windows awl wtt
appearance, it might have been called
a hut, too. This was tho refun of
hhame. This the harbor of waiting,
for a confiding, loving wnnnn for many
weary years. On srl'ttlc porch stood
two pretty willow garden chairs. In
front was the sea. The "ursine, rear
ing, muttering, mysterious sea I The
hom; stood so near the water's edgy
that, in a storm, it? angr'. hungry
tongue must have almost clutched its
rickety wall?, while licking its lip, the
beach.
"Is your mother very Mck, little
friend?" whispered we, apprehen
sive.
"Yes, sir, I fear she will die. She
longs to go ; for she says I am big
and brave enough to make my living
iflcft alone."
We entered a small but well furnish

for whom she waited. A pallor which
could oot be mistaken was on her Mill

"Mother is a-!ecp."
"Yes, poor boy. A sleep that
knows no waking."
The wails of the sea reached our
ears, and miglcd with the sob of ihc
