The first time I .s:iw Thornton Kirk
J looked upon liini ;ls .-njiiict, niiiidlc
.MtfMl nmn, ittinnt and inclined to hid
ro.sins.s, pcrlntps, Iml one in whom I
had no inti'ust whatever.
H w:ls the piincipal of a classical
school, about a stone's thiow from my
father's door and of coui.se iiuite en
Kiossed with his onerous duties. I was
housekeeper, daughter, and companion
to my lather, and quite as much taken
up with m duties as the still man who
passed and lepassed our nU; every
moiniiif,'. noon, and ni'ht, was with his.
I can hardly believe it myself, but
had I hcaid, any nioniiiitf, that Thorn
ton Knk was dead, that he had met
with sonic .sudden shock that had hur
ried him out of the world. I should only
have said, "How sad.'" and j-oih- on
steadily with my work, without even so
muchasoneicietlul sih in my heart.
This was at liist, not when I knew him
heaven help me! ;ls I came to know
him, aftei wauls.
He had opened his school in the
spring, ami when Autumn came on, and
the eenmos bewail to row longer, he
used to drop in and talk with my father
upon all sorts of learned subjects, which
J neither understood or caied to under
stand, while I sat quietly at my work;
and at last his occasional calls grew to
be nightly ones, until my father would
as soon have expected to see me missing
from my accustomed place, as to have
seen eight o'clock an ive without bring
ing our to him at least pleasant
neighbor.
"A wonderful man, this Mr. Kirk,"
my fat her said to me, as we sat momen
tarily expecting his footstep in the
poich, one evening.
"Is he?" I answeied quietly. "I am
glad you enjoy his visits."
"He must have studied hard all his
life, and such a memory as he has!
wonder he was never married."
"A queer wonder, I should think,
when he is such a stern harsh man.
One would be afraid to love him, lest,
he should wither one with a look," 1
answered, laughing.
It seemed so lidiculous to think of
any woman smiling into his eyes, and to
imagine him in the character of a lover.
"You don't know him then; that is
all," my father answered shortly.
lie w:is irritated to have his favorite
so niisundeistood, as he called it.
In a few moments Mr. Kirk entered:
but, we had no sooner settled for the
evening, than a call came from my
father, who was a physician, to visit a
patient u mile distant. I thought of
course that our visitor would go home;
but my father urged him so to remain,
saying that he would be back in an
hour, that he consented, and we were
left alone.
I never was so thoroughly embar
rassed, and, 1 believe frightened, in my
life, as 1 was to think of that man's
being on my hands for an hour. I
would sooner have faced a tempest.
"We had never exchanged a dozen words,
apart from the courtesies of the day,
and it was absurd to think of my at
tempting to entertain such a walking
dictionary as he was. I could have
cried, but I must not; or 1 could have
laughed, but I dared not.
At any rate. I.cared nothing for his
opinion, which was a blessed comfort
to me then. So I broke the ice by say
ing, "I am afraid you will have a dull
time of it. Mr. Kirk, for I am as stupid
as an owl upon all your 'ologies, and
scientific researches ; but I can tell you
how to make bread, or knit stockings or
anything in that line, if you like."
"And I can read to you a novel, if
you like." he said, with an amused look
upon his face; 'so don't be vexed that
I hare remained."
My face flushed. lie had read my
discomfiture, then.
"Xot if von will read what I like so
much." I said ; "but I am afraid you do
i it to please me, and not yourself."
" "What ple;ises you pleases me; and
resides, if I can, I want to convince
Vou that I am not a bear that eats
leople, however bearish I may seem."
U laughed heartily.
rln truth I have taken you for one,"
'jiswered; "but I give you my hand
proof that I will think differently
It- this "
ch a startled earnest look came into j
his eye then I It made rne tremble.it
was so searching.
"If you will, with your hand, promise
to be my friend, my true, never-failing
friend which is what I need more
than you can dream f I take it more
gladly than I ever took a woman's hand
before," he said solemnly.
With that look in his eye, though it
half frightened rne, I could not resist.
"I promise," I .said faintly; "but you
will get timl of me when you know
me better."
"I have been studying you for six
months," he answered, as he pressed my
hand in his.
That evening was the beginning of a
new life for me; and I soon found he
was quite as well versed in the litera
ture which a woman likes as in the
more abstruse which men delight in.
He w.is, from the moment our hands
crossed, my friend and helper, in the
truest, deepest sense of the word; and
I meant to be the same to him. I triei
to keep it before my eyes, that I was
t be his womanly friend, nothing more,
that I was to stand by him always.
And I remember of vaguely wishing
that some disgracw might come ujMin
him, that I might prove my sincerity
by still keeping my vow; but by-and-by,
something came Into my heart for
him which changed me wholly; and
because I fought against it with desper
ate energy, it held me with a closer
gnt-sp.
I knew that I loved him. I knew
then that, whatever his soul might
answer, mine had found its manna, its
bread of earthly life. I think I could
have killed any one who should dare
to come between us; and fear that I
had a rival for what did I know of his
life? w:is my torment, day and night.
He was so much above me, that I was
sure lie would never stoop to lift me
up beside him; but with an insane hope
that I might overtake him, I, too, with
my woman's brain, began to climb up
the dizzy mountain on which he stood.
I pursued the studies which I knew he
liked beat, and with such energy that
I was surprised at myself. A woman
does not know what she is capable of
doing until her heart wakes to love,
and then, lire is not too much for her to
walk through, if, in so doing she may
reach the heaven which at least in her
imagination- lies beyond.
In the meantime, days, weeks, and
months went by, and our lives were
outwardly unchanged. I would not
have had him know for a thousand
worlds, what was in my heart; I should
have felt disgraced foiever; and he
seemingly did not. He was kind,
thoiighttul. and attentive, but nothing
more; though sometimes, when our
eyes met, there was a look in his which
thrilled me thiough and through.
Of his early life or" family I knew
nothing; and I would not have asked to
save my soul. And it was by the mer
est accident that I heard one morning
in September, that he had been tele
graphed for by some one in Lancashire.
"If it should be his intended wife," I
said; and without giving myself time
to think further, 1 hurried on my
things, and went out for a walk. I was
afraid to see him lest I could not keep
a strong hand on my heart.
When 1 returned, I found that he had
left a note for me, scrawled upon a piece
of paper:
"1 cannot wait to see you, but if 1
send for you. don't fail me."
Whatever it meant, I had nothing to
do but wait; and that I did, trying :o
keep my nerves steady for whatever
might happen.
In a week this telegram came:
"If you are not afraid, 1 want you.
Come."
Then the directions where and how
to find him.
"I am not afraid and am coming," I
answered.
To my surprise my father did not
object to my journey, but seemed to
hurry me off, though he would not open
his lips about Mr. Kirk.
The distance was only two hundred
miles but it seemed interminable; and
when at last I stood upon the Asylum
steps, where he had directed mo to meet
him, 1 was too full of anxious fear to
think of anything save my desire to see
him, and know that he w;is safe.
The servant took me into the parlor,
and he was sent for. He answered the
summons in a moment; and though his
face was white and worn, the thankful
look in his eye, as he saw me, quite re
paid me for coming.
"1 shall never forget this," he said, as
his hand closed over mine. "Come
with me."
He led me through a number of dim
corridors and up long flights of stairs,
until he come to a sick ward, before
which he stopped.
"If you love me as I pray heaven you
do, be strong now," he said. And we
entered.
There was a bed in the room, and
fastened upon it lay a beautiful girl,
her eyes wild and maniacal, so like, and
yet so unlike, the man beside me, that I
started back in surprise.
"This is my child who has been
motherless and here, for ten years. A
week ago, they thought she would die,"
he said huskily.
"Your child! Oh. why did you not
tell me V" I cried, dropping on my knees
beside her, and kissing the wild lips a
hundred times. She shall not stay here
another day. Oh, thank heaven, I can
help you at last!"
A week afterwards we started for
home, taking the poor girl with us;
and as soon as we arrived. I found
father had caused a room to be fitted up
expressly for her home. Thornton
Kirk had told him all his circum
stances Alice soon recovered, and
now she is my daughter as well as
Thornton's.

Terrible Ordeal til It Author.
Some twenty ears ago "Mac," a
writer for the Chronicle, visited Livor
no, or Leghorn, :us English-speaking
people call it. a beautiful city in the
northwest corner of Italy, visited by
travelers on the Continent from eveiy
quarter of the globe. While there, and
sojourning temporarily with an old res
ident, an Englishman by the name of
Davis, a jolly, rubicund hotel keeper,
we learned that there was a tradition
respecting the monument in the squaie
just below his hotel, and near the quay
This monument, as near as can lie re
membered, has a pedestal and shaft
similar to the Uattle Monument in Hai
ti more, at the intersection of Fayette
and Calvert streets, except that sur
mounting the shaft is a life-s4e statue
of a Prince, son of the then reigning
Duke of Tuscany; while at the base, on
each corner, in a sitting position, sits a
huge black figure in heavy chains. One
of the figures represents the father, the
other three sons. The father is repre
sented as having his back broken. All
of the figures represent giant men. The
tradition ran as follows: During the
reign of the Prince's father a noted
black pirate and his three sons, who
rendezvoused on one of the islands
adjacent to the coast of Italy, had com
mitted depredations upon small ham
lets on the coast, and levied tribute
upon the inhabitants thereof. Their
tremendous strength and size overawed
the people, so that they had no difficulty
in securing rich booty and retiring un
molested. Expeditions had been fitted
out time and again to capture these out
laws, but in vain, for when an ordinary
force w;is sent against them it would
come back defeated, and when an over
whelming force was sent the outlaws
could not be found.
At length, when patience was ex
hausted, the Prince, the son of the grand
Duke, raised a force to ferret them out
and either capture or destroy them.
They had not been out of ort many
das when they discovered the four
outlaws in a boat rowing toward the
main land, and immediately gave chase,
and were fortunate enough to capture
them, but not until the father had bro
ken his "back by strenuous exertions at
the oar to escape. Pull of exultation,
and amid the universal applause of the
populace the Prince ran into the quay
at Leghorn and landed his prisoners,
which was no sooner done than he wits
arrested for violating the laws of the
Duchy of Tuscany respecting quaran
tine, the penalty for which w:is death.
His trial shortly ensued, and he was
condemned, with a recommendation to
mercy; but no pleas could sway the
judgment of his father, who declared
that the laws of the realm should apply
to princes as well as to lazzaroni, and
there seemed to be no hope. Finally, a
plan w;is agreed upon, which was in
substance as follows: If the young
Prince could execute in bronze 4 statues,
representing in size and even other
respect the four outlaws, and submit
them to the inspection of the populace
for a certain number of days, and no
defect could be pointed out between the
representatives and the original, then
the Prince was to receive a pardon;
otherwise he must suffer the penalty of
the violated law.
Long and faithfully did the young
Prince apply himself to create the fac
similes of the originals that would defy
unfavorable criticism, and upon a cer
tain day his statues were exposed in
the public square for the test.
Day after day the people crowded
around the statues, and as each day
passed none were found who failed to
pronounce the figures as exact counter-

This city has now a population of
upwaids of one hundred thousand, and
is rapidh building up. There .ire thir
teen different lines of railroad center
ing there, with others projected, which
make it one of the great railioad cen
ters of the country. Her business men
are enterprising, and spare no pains to
make the city oneof the most at t net ive.
as it is seen that it is one of the finest
laid out cities anywhere in the West.
As an evidence of the enterprise, hei
hotels are first-class. We found a home
at the Kemy Hotel, which is first-class
in all its appointments. This house was
built the first of this year, a four-story
brick of seventy-live rooms with all
modern improvements, furnished
throughout with the finest of furniture,
a moddle of neatness from top to bot
tom, and is well disciplined. The loca
tion is in the finest part of th citv,
on Meridian and Circle streets, fronting
n Circle Park. Indianapolis may well
be proud of this palace hotel, the
"Kemy." W. I). Sapp. A. Jackson, and
II. M. Clark, the proprietors, are old
hotel men and understand well the
wants of the traveling public. Mr.
Sapp, formerly of the Bates-' House,
and Mr. Clark, ar among the oldest
hotel men in the city. In visiting Indi
anapolis, don't fail to stop at the IJemy.
and our word for it you will feel at
