Those who know my friend Knollys only oeseally are apt to sot him down as cynic, because at tunes he is a man of saturnine humor, given to ridiculing bravery and oherity as madness; but I know clanger 8, holds no dread for him, nd have acci- dentally happened on some of his many good deede. me he has always seemed a man, of unusually lonfeut judgment, putting the best construction possible on the evil actions of his fellows '. though his own life is beautifully clean he takes people as he find e them, not feeling called upon to at- ' tempt to revolutionize the world. If I am unreasonably proud of my friend- ship with Kuollys it is pardonable, for he is an experienced man of the world, who must be nearing 50, whereas I am not yet SO. It had been Arranged, during his short stay with us in New York, that in two months I should join him in London ; and the prospect of another delightful elm through Europe with him made me some- what forgetful of the fact that it was his last night in this city. He had rashly promised my cousin to visit his rose gardens, and on that afternoon redeemed his word. When we met at the club I noticed that Knollya appeared tired. He stood at the window, apart from the other men, looking across at the plaza, and did not at first notice me. I suppose it was irksome," I began, "for Tom oan talk of nothing but his Poses and his wife. You see they are renewing their honeymoon. Their atfairs looked very bleak for a time, but suddenly righted them- selves, and their friends one suffering the • conseqttences." Knollys ceased to watch the wavering shadows of the trees, and turned inquir- ingly. " It was a misunderstanding," I con- tinued, as we walked out to dinner. "Tom forget the appearances are often mislead- ing, and she was unable to furnish a amble - factory explanation of her conduct." "1 conjectured something of the kind from what he told me coming back to the city, and it reminded me strongly of a little episode iu the life of a friend of mine. And she, too in some indefinable way-ame turn of the head or trick of the voice -re - coaled my friend's wife. The story might interest you." "1 am quite sure it would," I returned eagerly, for Knollys is always well worth hearing. 'It all happened some years ago' but I think I remember the points quitewell," he commenced, smiling faintly; "I am not so certain, however, that I shall be able to do the story justice, for I am not a clever raconteur, and you will probably surmise the end long ere I have reached it. My friend -we might call him Smith -my friend Smith was able to be of some service to a man whom he met in a foreign land. The man met with a fatal accident a few days later, and, together with the valet, Smith volunteered to nurse him. The stranger, feeling he had a claim on Smith because of the first favor, burdened him with the plea- sant task of bearing the news of his death to his wife. " Upon Smith's return to England, he carried out his mission and, having gone once, went again. She was a very young woman, and very beautiful, and Smith was irresistibly attached. Her husband had been a scoundrel, and, after a decent lapse of time, she married Smith. For the firat four yeara of their marriage they were so intensely happy that it is possible they proved rather tiresome to their friends. About that time Smith began to miss money ' and other articles of value and was finally able to trace the thefts to the butler. The man vainly denied the charge, and, although none of the missing valuables were found in his possession, he was discharged without a character. This mild measure was adopted because of the intercessions of my friend's wife. "For some weeks Smith entertained no doubt that he had fastened the 'burglaries on the proper party, but on returning home one evening he found his wife in the library. She had opened his desk by means of a fah° key, and in her hands held a roll of notes. Guilt was depicted in every feature; she was abject in her cowardice."" She needed the money to save a brother," I broke in, authoritatively. "No, for she had no brother or any near relative who might need help," Knollys said, as he set down his glass. "The man, anxious to find some excuse for her, sug- gested this ; but it was for no relative. It was for herself, yet she had wanted for nothing that money could buy or love de- vise. He might not have conceived her sin to be so flagrant had she not permitted the servant to suffer in her stead. So far as it was possible Smith made restitution to the man, but by her silence she had convicted herself of the most heinous of all transgres- sions in her husband's eyes. There was one way only in which he could explain the matter to himself. He had never believed in kleptomania until then, but it was the one thing upon which his mind was cen- tered. . And she confessed she had often felt impelled to take valuables for which she auld have ao possible need. "He was a proud man and be was tor- tured by Ms discovery. He had regarded his wile, his child and himself as being made of finer ola3r than the rest of man- kind. His disillusion was complete. The day after she was unmasked she came into a splendid inheritance, but Smith rigor- ously refused to permit the expenditure of any of it in the household. He dared not leave her for an instant, thinking the desire might come back to her. Ho sacrificed his pride by telling the true state of affairs to her maid, a trusted servant, and together they kept vigilant guard over her. It was the most insidious cruelty he could contrive -one that must have wounded her sorely. She was never permitted to lose sight of her sins. Ile was inflexible in his course, keeping her always under his relentless eyes. 'My friend Smith thought himeelf in those days quite capable of accusing and jadging his prisoner and seeing that the sentence was properly carried out. When she seemed to forget for an instant her past error Smith ever so gently turned the thumb screws. Ah, he really' devieed modes of exquisite torture that she should properly expiate her crime. No, she did not rebel ; she drearily accepted the penaley of her ,naisstep. At first she lived in deadly fear lest he shoeld send her away from him ; but when the found it was part of his plan to be with her constantly, she seemed content. She could not, rather would not, grow acoustomed to the thought that sho had forfeited Smith's love. During the first few days she ' ' hovered around him hoping to lure some expression of pardon from him, some word of love. Never forgetting that she bore his name, he treated her with a cold civility that was more frightful to her than would have been an exhibition of brute force. He was disciplining himself all the while in repressing his feeling& for, as you have What% suspected, he loved her as passion- ately as ever. "She devoted herself eicoluslvely to the child, who had become a source of constant agony to Smith.

"The ohild slept in the mother's apaet- mats, and Smith was about to retire one night when his wife came in hurriedly, bid- ding him send inunediately to their phyla, clan, for the little one watt choking.. Smith went back with her, and after seeing the child left the room -the thought to send for the family physician. Slie uried the simple remedies that formerly proved (deo- that, but without avail. She raised her eyes to Smith in an agonizing appeal, but he made no movement. ,Ab length he told her that he lied not summoned a physician, believing it better that the child shoulddie." " What ? I cried, aghast, my loud tone in marked °entreat to his low, nahurried words. "You ore not Wing," remarked Knollys,as he reflectively regarded the bead that had formed round the edge of his glass. "You are astounded at my friend's action, but he himself did not question the wisdom of his course; perhaps it did not occur to him that he could err. Better, he , thought, to muse himself one sharp pang than untold misery to the bitter end, In fact, he believed he was doing a very brave deed -to consign your child to death is not; such a simple matter as it may appear. When the mother learned what he had done ahe was wildly indignant foran instant,then quietly placed the child in his crib and • stoically watched his sufferings. And what has seemed quite right and courageous in himself struck Smith as monstrous in the mother. You are neglecting your fillet. You will find it—" "But the mother?" I reminded. "The mother V' echoed Knollys, wearily. "You progress too rapidly. Smith was able to dismiss from his mind the idea that he had been instrumental in bringing about the little fellow's death, for it would have been impossible for the phyaioian to reach the ,house before the .ohild expired. The mother, however, did not reason with so muck finesse, and after the death of her chid failed visibly. In this instance phy- sicians were called in, but what they might. have been able to do for the child they could not do for the mother. It is brue she could not have found life very joyous, but her doctors agreed they had never before seen any one so determined to escape from this world. There was ,no ilhiess-only a growmg languidness, a gradual putting by of the emalleet tasks and a want of will to recover. If ever a woman died of a broken heart it was my friend's wife." "Did she give no explanation of her con- duct1" I .demanded, leaning on the table heavily. Knollys was looking at something beyond me, and did not hear me until I had re- iterated my question. "So you do not believe she was a klepto- maniac? The explanation did not .come from her but from another quarter," he finally proceeded. "She was delirious for nearly a week before her death. In her lucid inoments she would ask the date, then strive to recollect something that elusively evaded her. She was continually murmuring about some money that was to be sent to some mie-whom, they could not determine. Smith had been with her all the day, and toward evening, feeling he must be alone for a while te give vent to his misery, went to the library. The morning's mail was awaiting him. The topmost letter was addressed to her in a man's unfamiliar hand. He tore it open, filled with insane jealousy. "Ab, of course, you perceive from whom it was. You are in the same position as the novel reader, who, knowing both sides of the story, is aware of the end long before the hero and heroine have lived it out. Un- fortunately, Smith kaew only his portion • of the tale. The missive purported to come from he first husband, whom Smith had helped bury, but whom she believed to be still alive, and cautioned her to forward his monthly allowance at once, or he would be under the painful necessity of declaring himself to Smith without delay. It was a pity he had not done ao long before, as Smith would have recognized the scoun- drelly butler. You see, he had for months imposed on the wife and blackmailed her in the belief that her worthless first husband was still alive and demanded money. She believed that if Snuth learned of his ex- istence she would lose his love and him. Does it not seem altogether impossible that she should have been so credulous? " So you see the mystery which Smith had believed to ' be no mystery, was cleared without her speaking, but a little too late, for, while Smith was readingthe letter, she passed away, leaving him in a maze of maddening reflections. He has had a long while to appreciate the bitt,er pathos of the incident, and sometimes ponders on the problem of whether she would have con- fessed had he not suggested to her the ex - cum of kleptomania. Knowing the sim- plicity of her morals, he comprehends the struggle there must have been while the butler was suffering for her. I think Smith would have pardoned her for taking the money to buy the man, so that he should not make himself known; even her own silence, had he been conscious it was done that she might not be separated from him. Her love for Smith was the one passion of her life, and she paid for it dearly." "Poor woman," I murmured, tritely. Knollys raised his head, his lips parted in a shadowy smile. "Note how we differ. I should say, Poor man.' She is in a place of peace." " I ani glad I am not acquainted with your friend Smith," I observed, trying to shake off the gloom of Knollys' story. "He must be a very sombre companion. Do you eo much of him ?" "The world knows nothing of his Ms - tory; he does not wear his heart on his sleeve. It is only to me that he confesses how dull he finds life. Yes, I see a great deal of my friend Smith -a great deaf too much. Let us drink to his early demise. Believe me, it is what would please him best"- The Argonaut. MICHAEL' GETS FIVE YEARS. ••••••••Veflf,. • Re goes to State Prison for the liongest Term the Law Allow. THE GIRL'S FATHER MAPES LYNCHING, The biggesb sensation ever known in Ann Arbor occurred after the verdict was rendered at 8 o'clock to -night. Such was the feeling that had the " Prince " been acquitted he would have been lynched. An enormous crowd assembled at the court hem. The " Prince " was sneaked out through the back and some suggested that they gee Bechel, the unnatural father of the girl. A search was rnade and it was learned that Bechel and Lucifer Durand were hiding in the eheriffs office. The crowd had in- creased to 3,000, and soon the office was in a state of siege. The door was locked, but in an instant the glass was broken out, and the mob. gazed upon two cowering forms. The Flying Roll disciples begged for mercy) but were answered by a fusilade of hooka and ink bottles. Lucifer was mistaken for Bechel, and was roughly handled before the mistake was discovered. Then Bechel was seized and cried, "Do anything; out my hair off but do not kill me." Some of the crowd shouted to lynch him, and others to apply tar and feather& "Cut his hair," yelled one, and this sounded the key wee. Bechel was taken to a barber shop, where the proprietor asked him if he desired his hair out. He said he did, and the flowing looks and whiskers were soon on the floor. Bethel was then escorted to the depot and told to keep out of Ann Arbor. Durand was also sent out of town. The police made no attempt to stop the mob, which numbered 3,000, but pro:lo- cutions are said to be likely to follow. The only wonder is that the Israelites were not lynched.

It is as if a herd of cows were wibhdrawing their feet from marshy ground all at the same tinie. "Just so," said a Buffalonian, "that explains the popularity of the trolley car. When the light goes out every fellow im- mediately begins kissing his girl. The con- ductor and the driver haven't any one to kias but they are instructed not to hurry up to make the connection that sets the lights a -burning again. Now they talk of trolleys in New York, but I am told this hugging and kissing busi- ness wouldn't be very popular there because the town's too cosmopolitan. Well, maybe, but you don't know what you're missing. "It's the unwritten law in Baffalo that when the electric light goes out and you haven't a girl with you, you grab thenearest one available and kiss her. Sometimes two fellows make for the same girl, and then there is trouble. It's a pleasant little cus- tom and tends to get people better am cipainted. You'd better adopt it in New York."

A London cable E aye : Lady Henry Somerset has aroused quite a sensation. by - writing to Mr. Wemyss, Sir Charles Dilke'a Tory opponent for Parliament in the Forest of Dean constituency, offering to go on thc. stump in Mr. Wemyss' interest for the sake of denouncing Sir Charles on moral grounds. She states that Mr. Stead, the editor, who has carried on so many crusades of a sensa- tional nature against immorality, would assist her. Mr. Wemyss indignantly re- fused the offer, declaring that he meant to. fight fair and win on political issma or not at all. The miners of the Forest of Dean division, who are devoted to Sir Charles. Dilke, have heard of the offer and are highly incensed about it. They threaten to duck Lady Somerset and tar and.feather Stead if they attempt to carry out their proposition in spite of Mr. Wemyss' declination to sanction it. There seems little doubt of Sir Charles Dilke's election. There is some talk of a social boycott being organized against him in the House of Commons if he obtains his Beat, but it is doubtful if this, amounts to anything. Scott's Youthful Heroines. Out of thirty of Sir Walter Scott's, heroines, sixteen are described as under 20.. Of the other fourteen, six are undated. This leaves us eight, three of whom are - set down as over 20; two start at one side - of the line and are carried over to the other; two are by implication rather them by the intention of the author taken out. of their "teen," and one, Amy Robsart,. is a heroine "of an uncertain age," since she is historically a middle-aged matrom and fictitiously a youthful bride. Of the six undated, the presumption is altogether in favor of the earlier age. A member once entertained the club with the state- ment that nearly all Scott's heroines are motherless. They are girls who have grown, up in the companionship of uncles or fathers, older men, and with an early responsibility of thought and action. They have had to plan their own wardrobes and decide their own conduct toward their lovers. Some of them have been behincl the scenes of stirring political events. Nearly all have been thrown into situations. where they had to think for themselves, to. act with decision, and in general to fulfill the whole duties of heroines. The heroines. of Scott are, some of them, only lay figures, but, at least so far as they have character, they are women, and they justify the deeds, which are done to win them. Various Beliefs. The children were talking of the churches, which they attended and the respective re- ligious belief of their parents. My papa is a Presbyterian," said one. " Mine s a Baptist," asserted another. "Mine is a Dutch Reform," chimed in a. third. This answer appeared to brighten one. who had been very quiet. "And 1 guess mine is tariff reform,"" came the proud assertion.
