TIio young man at tlic tnblo
started slightly and laid down
3 Ills pen yut ho had Xt been
writing for the paper before
him was untouched A bright smile
overspread his hnndsomo face as he
looked toward the fair head scarce seen
through the partly opened door
Come In surely Helen darling I
shall not write at all He spoke In a
full rich voice with Just a suspicion of
a brogue Of what use Is it to make
any memoranda Ill just speak to the
boys out of my heart
The young wife sat on a low stool
nt her husbands side and leaned her
head against his nrtn
You were thinking though for you
Jumped when 1 spoke to you Go on
now and think and 1 will be still as a
mouse
Yes I was thinking echoed the
young man seriously
He put his arm about his wifes shoul
der and there was Bilence between
them for a spneo
It was a great day in the life of Law
rence Ollnrn lie had received a few
hours earlier the news tlint he had
been nominated by his party for con
gress Tills nomination was In his
congress district equivalent to an elec
tion Ho was JS years old and had
been in America ten years The first
two were years of hard toil but after
that fortune had smiled upon him con
tinuously lie entered politics and had
been successful from the start He
had married early a beautiful girl who
brought him wealth beyond that con
tained in a heart full of love and admi
ration and Ollnra was regarded as a
man who had arrived
While waiting the coming of a dele
gation of his fellow townsmen with
their congratulations he had been
thinking of the past Back beyond
those first years in America his mind
had gone to tho days when ho wander
ed a barefoot ragged lad over the turf
of County Mayo Thoso were days of
poverty which was often bitter and
ignorance which now seemed to Law
rence nlmost incredible There was
one dark period of three months his
last In Ireland which he never could
Tecall without burning cheeks and
which came to his memory now only
at rare intervals The shame of it
might have ruined his life but instend
of that it had driven him out of the
night of ignorance into the sunlight
of knowledge and endeavor
It was upon this dark period that his
mind was dwelling when his wife star
tled him by her call
Just now she moved her lips nearer
his ear and murmured softly Law
rence how proud I am of you and how
liappy I am Arc wo not perfectly
iappy now dearest
Hush hush Helen said OHara

Eveu as ho spoke a shiver passed
over hi in nelen laughed mid her
hand touched his dark curls caressing
Very well then I nin not happy 1

The bell rang and a voice in the
lower hall asked for Mr OHara
Helen kissed her husbnud and ran
from the room A few moments later
a heavy btep was heard on tho stair
and a dark figure appeared In the door

Lawrence took a step forward and
thou paused his face white as the

Have ye nothing to say to nn ould
frlud after all these years of eepnray
tlou
I hope you have prospered too
Miles Cnllan
Lawrences voice sounded strange
and far away llko the voice of one
who speaks In a trance
Prospered yes I look It dont I
Bald the other with a bitter laugh and
n glance downward at his broken boots
and faded clothing It Is Just a week
since I left Hlackwclls Island I land
ed there the day after I struck New
York six months ngo But thats noth
ing now for me
Lawrence still Btood motionless Ho
Beemed paralyzed with horror
But yo havent much to say to me
Larry perhaps yoll hnvo more when
yo learn what Ive come for
I cannot hope It Is for any honest
renson Miles Callan I have known
only evil from your hands In the past
And now jore going to return good
for it according to tho way of tho
righteous and Ill see to It that ye do
Lawrence did not hear tho sneer
His thoughts were far away in Ireland
It was a moonlit summer night and
four young men were returning to their
miserable home from a meeting of
striking linen workers As they pass
ed through the deserted village streetB
the eldest of them who had been In
veighing loudly against the lnndlords
and all who owned property stopped
and whispered something nbout a linen
merchant whose store he pointed out
The older lads were inflamed by pas
sion and drink and Lawrence the
youngest who had had his share of
the liquor wont with tho rest Only
half comprehending what was Intend
ed he did as the leader bade and
stationed himself at the door to watch
while the others went in through a
rear window The merchant happen
ed to be sleeping in his shop that night
He gave nn alarm and tho houscbrenk
ers wore caught Larry pleaded guilty
and was sentenced to three months in
Jail It was this disgrace which drove
him in shame and horror from his
native land
Miles Callan the lender of that shab
by little band of culprits sat before
him
nad ye only robbed a bank now
OHara or made way wid big trust
funds It would have a fine sound nud
might bo overlooked but n linen dra
pers till Larry the Till Tapper
twould look 111 In tho country papers
wouldnt it lad
Hush oh hush groaned Lawrence
looking toward the door
Aye Ive heard of her too and tis
not likely yell have told her of It nor
that yoll be doing it soon
He held out a grimy piece of paper
Theres an attested copy of an en
try In the Jail wardens book at Cross
mollnn Lawrence OHara larceny en
tered June 13 discharged Sept 13
1S85 Its price Is 9500 Take it If yo
wish If not yer opponent will be
glad to buy It
There was one swift passing mo
ment of temptation Lawrence had not
an enemy In the town or district but
he knew too well tho cruel emergencies
which politics give rise to His oppo
neut could not nfford to Ignore that pa
per It would give him the election
Then he spoke Miles Callan had you
come hero as au old acquaintance in
need for all tho debt of bitterness I
owe you Id have helped you gladly
But when you come avowing black
mail not one cent will you wring from
mo
From afar came faintly tho sound of
a strange commingling of shouting
singing tho beating of drums and tho
tooting of horns An hour ngo it would
hnvo been the sweetest music in tho
ears of OHara Now It souuded his
doom
Miles Callan snt watching Lawrence
n malignant grin upon his fnce
Do you hear that said tho younger
man Thnt Is my friends coming to
rejoice with me Now see Miles Cal
lan whnt a man dare do Ive lived
this thing down once Please God Ill
do it again
Going to the door he called Helen
When she came he put his arm about
her Dear ho said gently a groat
trouble has come upon me Are you
strong to help me bear It Look at
that man Do you remember my chid
ing you tonight Helen for proclaiming
our happiness Oh girl how true It is
that the consequences of a sin can nev
er bo foreseen and thnt they may pur
sue us to the grave I made a misstep
once Helen It was In the fnroff days
In the old country and though I
thought 1 had atoned by years of bit
ter buffering my sin lias come homo to
mo In the hour of my triumph borne
by llio very hand which led mo into
temptation
The sound of the trumpets nnd the
shouting were louder now The nd
vauee guard was already in front of
the house Helen who hnd listened
with face growing paler now throw
her arms arouud her husbands neck
Lawrence Lawrence she cried
you kuow 1 trust In you and believe
hi you with all my soul Who dares
say thU my noble husband hns ever
done on Ignoble thing
He himself it Is he who dares not
that wretch therel cried the young
man exultlngly Girl 1 will never go
to Washington hut yoll have no cause
to blush for me this night In Ids ex
citement his tongue proclaimed In rich
er accent the laud of his birth Listen
while I tell them nnd yo shitl know
everything
Hundreds of voices were now shout
ing Ids name In front of tho house
Unclasping his wifes arms from his
neck Lawrence leaped upon tho bal
cony My friends ho cried but he
got no further His appearance was
greeted with prolonged cheering
Helen half fainting leaned heavily
upon the table and now looked with
dilated eyes upon tho dark heavy fig
ure In tho corner
Callan had risen from his chnlr and
stood regarding tho beautiful young
woman with shamefaced embarrass
ment
My friends continued Lawrence
I thank you for your greeting Tho
honor which has come to mo I cannot
accept Not that I do not desire It
most heartily to pretend otherwise
would bo to deceive you Because you
are my friends you shall know tho true
reason I am not fit to represent you
In congregs He was Interrupted
again this time by loud cries of Indig
nation nnd disapproval
Before they had died awny Helen
spoke She wns looking at Callan with
an expression of Intense loathing
Until tonight she said In a low
vibrant voice I thought that in nil
Jll
TAKE OFT THE CUIISE SWEHT LADY
Gods creatures however low they had
fallen some germ of good remained
I did not believe thnt anything so utter
ly vile as you could live Go from this
home which you hnvo dishonored by
your presence She raised her open
hand and turned awny her head May
God-
No no cried Callan in terror do
not curse me not that not that
Again Lawrences voice arose My
friends you know what my life has
boon among you but before that was
a life less favored and far less happy
It is of that older time I would speak
to you and then you will understand
Callan sprang from his crouching po
sition nnd in one bound wns upon the
balcony bosldo OHara
Let a man who knows all about that
ould life speak of it for hlui ho cried
to the throng below Our young frlnd
hero is nervous nnd upset tonight be
cause of an ouexpected visit from a
companion of thlm ould dnys They
were days when he hadnt always
shoes to his foot and sometimes scarce
a whole pair of trousers on his legs
and Its because of these dayB of pov
erty and distress boiug so strongly re
called to him by this foolish ould frlnd
that he thinks tonight hes not fit for
this high station But let one who
knew him then tell you thnt ho has
nothing to blush for except that same
poverty nnd the Ignorance which went
with It nnd both of thlm hes long
since put behind him Theres no folner
young man In the worruld tonight than
Lawrence Ollnrn
A loud outburst of cheers greeted
this speech Lawrence who hnd stood
by too astonished to Interrupt glanced
backward througli tho window nnd
Boeing Helen on the point of slipping
from the chair Into which sho had
sunk sprnng to her aid
Cnllan had caught the fancy of tho
crowd and for tho next few minutes
kept them roaring with laughter as he
told anecdotes of his boyhood In Cross
molina
Buck In the room ho knelt nt Helens
feet his tattered cap In his hnnds
Take off the curse swoet lady he
begged take off the curse nnd ulver
more be saddened by the sight of Miles
Cnllan
Helen looked nt the cowering wretch
a beautiful smile upou her pale lips
God forbid that I should curso you
she said I shall pray that ho mny
forgive you as I do
Callan bent Ills head low before her
and nftor one ndorlng look rushed
from the room
Stay Miles stay do not go yet
cried Lawrence
He would have followed Callan but
Helen throw her arms about him
Tho people wero calling loudly for
him
Your place is with them sho said
urging her husband toward the win
dow Leave him to God
