First
rhlllp Anson Is a boy of IS, of fine
education and good breeding, but an or
phan "and miserably poor.
Tho, story opens with the death of his
mother.
IUch relatives have deserted the family
In t)jjlr hour of need, and when his
mother's death comes Philip Is In des
pair. Ho looks over his mother's letters
and finds that ho Is related to Sir Philip
Morland. A few days later n terrific
thunderstorm brews over London. At the
height of tho storm a flash of lightning
scared a team attached to a coach In
front1 of a West End mansion. Philip,
who, has become a newsboy, recuca a
srlrl v'from tho carriage. Just before it
turns 'lover. A man with tho girl trips
over' Philip In his excitement. Ho cuffs
tho boy and calls a policeman. Tho girl
pleads-for Philip and ho Is allowed to go.
nftcr i learning that tho man was Lord
Vanstone. Philip thqn determines to com;
mlt ulclde. He borrows a piece of ropo
from O'Brien, a ship-chandler, and goes
to his miserablo dwelling in Johnson's
Mews.
Just as he Is about to hang himself a
meteor flashes by the window and
crashes into tho flagstones in tho yard.
Tho-boy takes this as a sign from heaven
not Co. kill himself. Ho then goes to the
yard'to look at the meteor. "Philip picks
up several curious-looking bits of meteor
and, 'shows" them to O'Brien. The latter
advises him to take them to a Jeweller's.
He Visits a Mr. "Wilson, who tells him
that' tho pieces are meteoric diamonds
worth an lmmrnso fortune. Wilson sends
hlrnVfo a diamond dealer named Isaac
Bteln Philip Is hungry, but has no
money, and on his way to tho dealer's
thinks how hard It is" that he, with all
theso- diamonds in Ids pocket, cannot
evenr.buy a meal. Ho goes into a rea
taurant and asks the proprietor to trust
him' 'for a meal. Tho man refuses, but
Mr.'.-Jjidd, a grocer, offers to pay the
bill. -Philip eats his fill and promises to
reward tho grocer later. At Isaacsteln's
of flco.'. he Js. forced m to assault tho office
boyin order -to gain entrance. Ho tells
the dealer that Mr. WllscfJ sent him
there. Isaacsteln secretly .sends- ,fpr a
policeman after he has Been; the diamonds,

Well, It mattered not. The courage of,
despair which nerved mm me previous
night came to his aid again. Ho would
defy them all, careless of consequence.
Tho policeman was saying:
"It's a queer, affair, sir. Did he really
say he had lots more of 'cm?"
'Yes, yes. Do you think I am ro
mancing? Perhaps they are in his pos
session now."
"Have you any more of these, stones,
bo'?"
Philip, .with llp,s tensely set, was des
perately 'cool' again. Ho moved his arm,
and. tho constable's grasp tightened.
"YoU are hurting me," said tho boy.
"I mrcely wish to put my hand in my
pocket Are you afraid of me, that you
hold mo so fast?"
The policeman, like tho rest, did not
fall to notice Philip's diction. Tho scorn
ful superiority of his words, tho chal
lenge of the final question, took him
aback. ' Ho relaxed his grip and grinned
confusedly.
Philip Instantly produced his paper of
diamonds and opened it widely, so that
all tho stones could bo seen. Ho handed
tho parcel to the policeman.
"iJEttke' good care of them, constable,"
he sold. "Judging from results, they
would not bo safe in that man's hands."
But Isaacsteln did not hear the insult.
When he saw the collection ho nearly
lost his senses. What had he done7 Was
ho or the boy mad? Veins stood out on

at being called "constable" by Philip as
by'thei mean appearance of articles pre
sumably of great value.
"This is a. rum go, What do you make
of It, Mr. Isaacsteln?" he said."
Tho query restored the Jow's wits. I
After all, hero was tho law speaking.
It would hnvo been tlx; -wildest folly for
a man of his position to dabblo in this
mysterious transaction.
With a great effort he forced himself
to speak.
"Lock him up instantly. This matter
must be fully Inquired into. And
do bo careful of that parcel, con
stable. AVhero do you tako him? To
tho 3rldewc.ll station? I will follow you In
a cab In flvo minutes."
So Thlllp, handcuffed, was marched
down tho stairs past tho gratified office
boy and out Into the street.
As for Isaacsteln, ho required brandy,
and not a little, before ho felt ablo to
follow.
PERPLEXING A MAGISTRATE.
In after years Philip never forgot the
shame of that march through tho star
ing streets. Tho everlasting idlers of
London's busiest thoroughfares gathered
around tho policeman and his prisoner
with grinning callousness.
"Wot's e bln-a-doln' of?"
"Nicked a lydy's purse, eh?"
"Naw! Bin tlcklln' the till, more like."
"Bll-me, don't 'o look s-'lck!"
They ran and buzzed around him like
wasps, stinging most bitterly with coarso
words and coarser laughter. An omnibus
slowed its pace to let them cross tho
road, and Philip know that tho people on
top craned their necks to have a good
look at him. When nearlng the viaduct
steps tho pollcemnn growled something
at tho pursuing crowd. Another consta
blo strode rapidly to the entrance and
cut off the loafers, sternly advising them
to find some other destination. But tho
respite was a brief ono. The pair reached
Karrlngdon street and had barely at
tracted attention before they passed the
restaurant where Phl'Jp had lunched. The
hour wis yet early for mid-day customers,
and the bald-headed proprietor saw them

"What aro you thanking him for?"
said the constable.
"For believing in me," was the curt
answer.
The policeman tried to extract some
meaning, from tno words, but failed. Ho
privately admitted that It was an extra
ordinary affair. How came a boy who
epoko, like, Oj gentleman and was dressed
like a street Arab to be wandering about
London with a pocketful of diamonds
and admitted to the private office of the
chief diamond merchant in Hatton Gar
don? Ho gave It up, but silently thanked
tho stars which connected him with an

At last Philip's via Dolorosa ended In
tho Bridewell pollco station. He was

Philip's sangfold was coming to his

tho gaping mob had cauterized all other
sentiments, and ho now saw that If he
would prescrvo his Incognito he must
adopt a ruse.
"Philip Morland," ho said, doggedly,
when the Inspector asked him his name
for- tho last tlmo before recording a de
flnlto refusal.
"Philip Morland!" It sounded curiously
familiar to his ears. His mother was a
Miss Morland prior to her marriage, but
no liad not noticed the odd coincidence

after tho "Sir Philip" of tho pouket of

"Address?"
A Bay State
JJy REV. THOMAS IJ. GREGORY.
It was 100 yours ago, January 15, 1811,
that Joslah Qulncy of Massachusetts,
made the speech In congress which an
ticipated Jefferson Davis and Robert
Toombs by nearly
a couple of genera
tions.
The question be
foro the congress
was that of the ad
mission of Loulri
ana, and Mr.
Qulncy spoke as
follows: Mr.
Speaker, I address
you with an anxiety
and distress of
mind with me
wholly unprece
dented. To me It
appears that this measure would Justify
a revolution In this country. I am com
pelled to declare it as my deliberate
opinion that. If this bill passes, the bonds
of the union aro virtually dissolved; that
tho states which compose It are free
from their moral obligations; and that,
as It will bo the right of all, so It will
be the duty of some, to prepare defin
itely for a separation amicably If they
(can, violently it they roust."
, nere we nave every iaea mai was ad
vanced by Jefferson Davis, Robert
Toombs and their coadjutors In 1W1.65.
.William L. Yancey, the most rabid or
the secessionists, never, In any of his
speeches, went beyond what was said by
Joslah Qulncy In 1811. He could not have
done so had he tried, for the Mamnrhu
tetts man had already gone to the limit.

"Park Lane."
Tho Inspector began to write beforo
tho absurdity of tho reply dawned on
him. Ho stopped.
"Is your mother a caretaker there, or
your father employed in tho mews?"
"My father alid mother are dead."
"Then will you kindly Inform us what
number In Park- Lane you llvo nt?"
"I have not determined that as yet. I
Intend to buy a house there."
Homo constables lounging about the
office laughed, and the inspector, in
censed out of his routine habits, shouted,
angrily:
"This Is no plnco for Joking, boy. An
swer mo properly, or it will bo worso
for you."
"I have answered you quite, properly
Tho constable who brought me hero has
tu his possession diamonds worth many
thousands of pounds belonging to me.
I own a hundred times as many. Surely
I can buy a lious in Park Lano it I
like."
The inspector was staggered by this
well-bred Insolence. Ho was scorchlnR
for some crushing legal threat that would
frighten the boy Into a state of duo,
humility when Mr. Isaacsteln entered.
The Hatton Garden magnate again re
lated tho circumstances attending Philip's
arrest, nnd the Inspector promptly asked;
"What charge shall I enter? You gave
him Into oustody. Do you think ho has
stolen the diamonds?."
Isaacsteln had been thinking hard dur
ing a short cab drive. His reply was
unexpectedly frank.
"He could not have stolen what never
existed. There is no such known col
lection of mcteorlo diamonds in .tho
world."
"But there must be, because they are
here."
By this time the parcel of dlrty-whtto
stones was lying open on the couqtor,
and troth Jow and policeman wero gating
at them Intently. There was a nettling
loglo in the inspector's retort.
(To be Continued Tomorrow.)
Secessionist
had spoken the last word that It was
possible to say upon the subject.
Tho bold, open threat of secession, tho
constitutional - right of secession, the
solemn duty of secession unon tho part
of the states feeling themselves aggrieved,
and, finally, the armed resistance to any
attempt that might be made by the gov-
1 ernment in a coercive way to hold the
would-be seceding states In the Union.
Mr. Qulncy's espeech concluded as fol
lows;
"Sir, I confess It, tho first publio lovo
of my heart is the commonwealth of
Massachusetts. There Is my fireside, there
are the tombs of my ancestors. My love
or this union grows out of this attach
ment to njy native soli, and Is rooted
in It. I cherish It (the Union), because it
affords tho best external of hope of its
(Massachusetts') peace, prosperity and in
dependence," In other words, Joslah Qulncy, as was
the case later with Robert E. Lee, loved
his native state best, and in the event of
his being obliged to make a choice, was
prepared to "go with his state," much as
he loved tho Union.
Strange Is history, and very strange
are many of Its dispensations. Its con
sistency Is wonderfully like the chame
Icon, and Its Judgments, like those of the
Almighty, are "past finding out." Flitting

A 'nice man of my acquaintance Is en
gaged to bo murrlcd tq a nlco young
woman. Tho only rift in tho lute Is
caused by tho lack of money. Tho young
man Is earning at
tho present tlmo
$1,000 a year. Ob
viously they can't
marry on that
without taking un
duo chances a t
having tho wolf at
the door for a
watchdog.
Tho young wo
man, however, la a
business girl, and
sho also gets 11,000
a year for salary,
and she nnd tho
young man, being
practical, modern
young people, neo
no reason on onrth
why they shouldn't
get married, and
she krp on with her Job, thus doubling
tho family Income, and enabling them
to. live In comfort until such tlmo as tho
man Is able to make enough for the two
of them.
Tho obstacle In carrying out this plan
Is the girl's fathor, who is horrified at
tho thought of his daughter following n
gainful occupation after ho Is married,
and who says that a man should have
sufficient leve for his young wife and
sufficient pride to keep her In lior own
home.
So the little heart tragedy goes on.
The young people, who dearly lovo each
ether, can't get married becuuse tho
young man can't command a big enough
salary to feed nnd clothe two people,
The girl goes on working, but sho Is
not permitted to buy her happiness with
her money, and all because of n silly old
convontlon that binds us and fetters
our freedom, tand from which wo ought
to have enough oourago to break away.
The father, In this caso, says that tho
young man should have enough affection
for his wlfo and pildo In hor to keep
her In his own little home, . hut what a
man 'can do for his wlfo Isn't always a
matter of affection and pride. Doubtless
tl Is young man, and every other man
In love, would like to be able to give
his bride a palace to llvo In, and Jewels
to adorn herself, and automobiles to ride
about in.
These things are no test of love. The
poor man can love, and generally does
love a thousand times mora unselfishly
tlan the millionaire,
Are you going to say to hlip that lie
muttn't love a woman, or think about
marrying her until ho can give his wlfq
the things that rich p&uPle have?

that we hnvo got to face, and that Is
that tho averaga young man docs Hot
make enough money to support o.- wlfo.
If ho waits to marry until ho Is ablo to
comfortably provide for n family ho has
gotten to bo an ,old -buchclor who is too
selfish to marry at nil,, or who Is so full
of whims, and crochets, nnd cranks that
no woman wants him.
This Is hard on tho girls, and It Is
hard for posterity and society In general,
for tho time that peoplo ought to marry
Iti In tho spring tlmo of lfe, when they
aro full of hope, and enthusiasm, and
romance, and udaptiblllty.
To say to any young couplo that they
must wait through dreary ycurs while tho
bloom of their affection Is rubbed off,
end tho glory nnd the circling wings fade
away from their romance, because con
vention decrees that a woman shall bo
shut up In her house when she works
after marriage, Is not only Idiotic, It is n
crime.
For tho only way In this day and un
der preitent economic conditions that tho
poor young man and his swetheart can
venture Into matrimony is by pooling
their pay envelopes and both continuing
to earn money.
And why Bliould.n't thoy, pray?
Tho father, who Is so shocked at the
Idea of his daughter earning money to
help her husband outstdo of the home,
would think that sio was doing no more
than her- duty by working t help him
within tho home. If she married a poor
man ho would expect her to do her part
by doing tho cooking and washing and
Ironing nnd scrubbing and sowing. Ho
would think It all right for hor husband
to accept this strenuous labor from the
girl.
It happens that this girl has been trained
to a profession that she delights In,
whereas sho loathes domestic labor.
Her; profession only occupies hor from U
