' William West in Cleveland Plain Dealer. HER SECRET. Hushed in aji awful quiet was the big house, for its mistress lay sick unto death. No longer was it the abode of laughter, for tears had taken its place, and real sorrow had usurped seeming joy. Carriages' still drove up, but it was over the straw covered road they came, and their occupants, only tarried for in quiry. - The mistress of the house lay sick un to death, she who was so beautiful and so glad.. Strange that she should be sum-' moned when there were others, sorrow, marked and stricken in years, who wait-, ed for the call and prayed it might come quickly, yet waited and prayed in vain. There were others, too, not old nor gray before their time, who might have slip ped away into the unkn&wn almost un noticed, while this woman had so many ties to bind her to earth her husband, her child, her relations, her legion of friends. ..." : It was hard she should be called away so early from the rich banquet that lay spread before her. Yet the angel of death was expected. His- emissaries had arrived and told of his approach, which may not be staid nay, nor even long delayed. The doctor, who knew too well the signs ef these fateful envoys, shook his head gravely in reply to the anxious queries of those who loved herbest her sisters, her mother, her husband but he gave no gloam of hope, for she lay in a deadly lethargy from which it had' been impossible to rouse her. In vain her mother spoke to her as she had done in days long gone by, when she was yet a child. In vain her husband stood by her side and took her hand and called her by every endearmert she knew so well : In vain her child clutched her breast and.cried for her mother to look at her and tulk to her again. Surely if it were possible to bring her back from the edge of the grave these dear ones could do it. But there she lay, stonily impassive, with her great eyes staring into space, cold and unheeding as the sphinx. ' She-gave no sign of life, and the hours fraught with hope sped slowly on, and each one registered a step nearer, the grave. Onfl by one they withdrew from the chamber of death, the husband being the last to obey the doctor's orders, and now none was left in the room but the physician and the nurse her old serv ant, the ono upon whose knee she had climbed 20 years and more ago. Hoiv slowly the hours passed for the watchers, and yet surely they passed too quickly just so many hundred more violations of the pendulum, just & few strikings of the hour,, and all would be over for her so richly endowed with all that should make life worth living. The doctor never left her lade. He Bat there with his keen, observant eye fixed upon her, ready to note any change, but there she lay impassive, and the watcher could scarcely see that she breathed. Her beauty seemed even more perfect now than he had thought it , : Absolutely faultless was the chiseling of those clear cut "features: Her dark hair waved loosely around her Grecian brow and trailed across her shoulders, a fit setting for the marvelous whiteness of her face. The great violet eyes her chief glory were wide open, staring with terrible fixity into nothingness, or was it into the something beyond? . Her lips had lost their vivid color, but this was scarcely a fault; her hands were outside the coverlet, white marble faint ly marked with blue, her wedding ring the one discordant note. For long there had been" no sound in the room save the crackling of the fire and the faint ticking of the clock. Suddenly the doctor bent eagerly for ward. Her lips moved. With eagerness he listened. "Linley," she scarcely more than whispered. Then all was si lence, again. The nurse rose hurriedly from her chair by the fire. She had only heard a sound. , The doctor raised his hand, and she re sumed ier seat. Long, long he waited, hoping for another sound of "returning consciousness, but none came. , At last he came over to the nurse. "Did you hear her?" "What did she say, sir?" - "One word only 'Linley. ' " . ' The nurse suppressed an involuntary exclamation. ' "What did it mean, nurse?" But the woman only shook her head. VStrango," muttered the- doctor, as with knitted eyebrows he reflected and strove to catch some clew. Then he re turned to the bedside. There she lay aa impassive as before. ; ? "Linley! Linley !" he kept repeating. "What did she mean?" . jjThe nurse made no reply, but sat looking into the fire. ! ' "Nurse, tell me," he said at length, "have you an idea what the mistress meant by that word?" But the nurse did not or'would not hear. - "Look here, nurse," continued he, "I mast have an an3wer. Yon are keeping something hack. Your mistress' life may hang npon yon. Tell, me, do you know to'whorn or to whut she alluded?" -"I do." "Then in heaven's name, tell me. She must be roused from her lethargy if she is to live. What did she mean?' ' "Doctor, Iscannot tell yon. " "Brit yon must. I insist upon it. Is that life of no consequence to you? Can yon see her die and keep7 back what might save her life?" "Yes." "Then you are committing murder. " The nurse's eyea were fixed on the fire. She seemed to be seeking guidance from the flames. At last her courage failed her, and in distress she cried: . "Oh, heaven! Whatshalll do? I dare not." The doctor moved up to her, "JTurse," said be, "one thing you. must do. You must tell me what you know. If you do noi, your life will be ' made hideous and unbearable by the memory of tonight. Cannot you trust me? You know she looks upon me as a friend. The secret, if secret there be, Is as safe with me aa with you. YU must tell me. What did she mean by linley? Is it a man's name?" "Yes." ; '; The doctor , glanced involuntarily at the bed. No, she could not hear; he iBedTint havJawereahia .voice. (: i " "Her IoVerK---. ' , . . - "Yes..". ; . : '- . ' . The clock struck, and. the woman on the bed was , one .. step nearer the un known. .... .. -.J ; i X V "la thia an old affair? I mean is it in the past?'!. "No."- . The doctor sighed. He had brought the .woman into the world, and he loved her as his own child. - 7 "What are we to do, sir?"-, : . "What indeed, nurse?"- - He rose and paced the room in his perplexity. " , Linley) Who was he?- Pshaw I what did it matter? The woman would most surely die unless she could be roused from her lethargy this Linley might do it, for he was in her mind. He must be sent for if her .life was" to be Baved.1 Her life I What would it be worth after that? Better death than dishonor. Let her go down to the grave leaving a spot less name, let .her mother sorrow for her, let her child treasure the memory of a good mother, let her husband mourn the loss of his faithful wife. Aye, let her die. Yet dare he take this responsi bility npon himself? He could save her. ' Of this he was confident. What had he to do with others? Saving life was his business. She must be saved. This; Lin-" ley, whoever he was, must be sent for, and at once. ' "Nurse, we must send for him." But the nurse only shook her heads "Or she will die." "Better so, sir." And the doctor wavered. "Better so; aye, better so indeed. The price is too great to pay, even for life, a life of agony and dishonor. To be held in scorn by those who admired her be fore.. To be scoffed at by those whose at tentions she had not deigned to accept. To lose her .mother, husband and child at one blow, and gain what? No, a thousand times, no. Let her die. " The doctor wiped great drops of agony from ' his brow as he signed her death warrant. ., ' "Yon are right, nurse. It is best she should die." He threw himself , into a chair, and the nurse took his place at the bedside. "Doctor," she called out at length. He stood beside her and noted the change. "Call them, nurse. She will not live the hour out. " Again they stood by the side of the woman, speechless with grief. How beautiful she looked 1 How utterly love ly 1 Ch, the pity of it she must die, so young and so loved 1 .Oh, the irony that love which should have chained her to life had been her doom. The clock struck once again. The vis itor was come, and the woman breathed her last in her husband's arms. j "Linley I Linley 1" muttered the doc tor on his way home. ' ' I wonder who he ia I should like to let him know his villainy is known, to thrash the life out of the scoundrel, to brqak every bone in his body. Linley, Linley. Nurse, will have to tell me who he is. " But the nurse kept her secret and did not tell him. For it was the doctor's own son. Good Company. A Bint to Bicycle Riders. There is a little arrangement of my sown invention, which many ladies, bi cycle riders, have found satisfactory, used to adjust an ordinary skirt .to a comfortable riding length. About eight inches from the belt sew on the seams on the under side of the skirt little brass rings, about the size of an old fashioned 6 cent silver piece. Then put the rings between the seams, sorthey are about six or eight inches apart; then sew on an other row diagonally -opposite these rings, about six inches lower down on the skirt. Through these rings run a stout, black, smooth cord, the ends com ing out into the pocket bn the right side. By pulling this string and tying it in a single bowknot, and concealing it in the pocket, the skirt is lifted, for rid ing. When dismounted, by untying the tring and giving the skirt a little shake, it assumes the conventional length. This device is perfectly simple. The rings should be sewn on strong and the string smooth. Mary Sargent Hopkins in Wheelman. " ' Better Than s Finger String;. Perhaps the most startling suggestion for a "reminder" was that of the little boy whose grandmother had forgotten his Christmas present the year before. She wished to know what thing she should do in order that she should not forget it again. "You might put your teeth in upside down," said the boy. Youth's Companion. Seeking Ancestors. "My life is made miserable," said a librarian plaintively, "by people who are anxious to become members of the Sons of the Revolution or the! Daughters of the Revolution. Only about one-half of them succeed, but it takes-a long time to prove to them that thev can't succeed. The craze started only a few years ago with the organization of these societies, and it is still on the increase. "Most of the seekers of ancestors are women. A great many of them,; I believe, have never been in a libra-; ry before. They know nothing about how to begin a search. They ply me with questions. All I can do is to find out in what state their ancestors lived during the Revolution and then; turn over the state documents to them. Then, likely as not, they will ask me to help them search, but I draw the line at that. Their disap pointment when they can't find a single private in their favor is some thing terribje. Sometimes they get angry and say the books are wrong; the library is wrong and everybody is wrong. Againcbey find, to their horror, that they had ancestors in terested in the .Revolution ances tors who were ardent Tories. "New York Press. . Mr. Tree Forgot His Hotel BUI. Just as the Paris was about to leave New York Beerbohm Tree, the English actor, made frantio efforts from the boat to attract the atten tion of Clarence Fleming, jwho acted as his American representative, and who was trotting down the pier. "Oh, Fleming 1" shouted Mr. Tree when he got his manager's atten tion.. "I've forgotten to pay my bill, " he said with a pathetic lisp." "Come on board so I can give you the money." Fleming hurried to the gangplank, but was told that he could not go ' aboard. A friendly custom house officer helped him toMr. Treo. Then the aptor discovered that he had no money with him, and a hurried search hegan for Acting Manager Watson, who carried the funds.

But It Brought Bapplness to a L,lttle Crip ple and Moisture to Many Eyes. Seated in the corner of a Broadwayj car was a frail, little crippled boy, evi-j dently an intense sufferer from a spinal disease. Hfs head and the upper part or his body were inclosed in a network o steel and leather, and an iron brace'wasj tightly strapped to the side of one of his legs. Poverty, too, seemed to be his mis fortune. His clothing was of cheap ma-i terial and bore the stamp of homemake, and in every finger of the black cotton! gloves worn by his 15-year-old sister.j who accompanied him, there was a hole, i Her dress was patched in several places, and her hat was a thin 'straw affair,! trimmed with a band of faded, red rib bon, but withal she was wondrous neat ana ciean. At Thirty-third Street a handsomely dressed young woman boarded the car' and dropped into a seat directly opposite' the pair. Tucked in the folds of her coat was a big bunch of fresh, double violets, tied with a long purple ribbon, and their fragrant odor at once pervaded the car.j The little boy caught the scent, and at once his great brown eyes were thrown upon the flowers.. Then he whispered' something to his sister, who blushed andj told him to wait awhile. Turning his attention again to the violets, the lad gazed upon them until his eyes grew bright and round, and every few mo meats he would draw an extra long breath, as if to take in all of the sweetl perfume he could. Soon every one in -the forward part of the car was watch-i r rag him. From the look of a&miratioq there grew in those brown eyes an. , ex pression of longing so earnest and deep that it made the heart thrill with sym pathy. ' The young woman, with changing emotions, glanced uneasily at the boy at intervals, and soon the power of those! eyes and the soul they revealed over- came her. With a quick tug she drew the violets from her coat, and with a tear springing to her eye handed them' to the boy, purple ribbon and all Be-i fore the child recovered from his great joy she sought the platform and was gone. - Nearly all the men sitting near by suddenly resumed interest in their news-j papers, and some of them coughed. The women looked straight ahead through the glass, beyond the sidewalk and much farther than the obstructing shew windows and doorways. It was not an earthly view hat pictured itself to them; their vision was turned toward their hearts, into the tiny corner where fondest of all hopes and sweetest of sad memories were treasured. The boy? Well, do I need to -tell you of his happiness ? And sister ? Poor sis ter. She felt so ashamed. But what could-she do? New York Herald. Electric Candles. The electric candle is in great request in England for the lighting and decora' tion of dining and other tables. An in genious device for lighting the candle is provided by placing small pads under the tablecloth and taking' the current from them by means of two pin points in the base of the candlestick. The can dles of course are extinguished on being taken from the table and. are relighted' when they are replaced in the proper position. They are so arranged that the bulb and glass imitation of a wax can dle can be removed, when the candle-, stick can be used for any ordinary can dle. When used with shades of colored silk, the electric candle makes one of the prettiest additions to a .dinner table that it is possible to imagine. Pittsburg Dis-' patch. ' - 1 OVER THE TELEPHONE. Ho Conld Not Resist the Sweet Tones of "Annie Laurie." They had been lovers, but now they were parted. It was tho result of a foolish littlo quarrel.

Ho was keep ing good his promise. Yet the. girl did not waver in her devotion to him, and she resolved to win him back. She remem bered that he used to bo fond of hearing hor sing "Annie Laurie, "and she won dered if by chance he heard her sing it again it would revive the old love. She thought of the telephone and decided to try. So it happened that one afternoon she sat in a phone cabinet down town. Ting a ling, long ling, went the bell. Tho connection was made. He was in the business office. "Is Mr. Walker in?" . "Yes, I am Mr. Walker. What is it?" In reply the girl began singing' in a sweet, plaintive soprano voice: Maxwelton braes are bonnie, Where early fans the dent, And 'twas there that Annie Laurie Gave me her promise true, Gave me her promise true, . ' And ne'er forgot 'twttl be, And for bonnie Annie Laurie I'd lay me down and dee. - He used to call her his Annie Laurie. As the . tender melody of the old ballad came in trembling notes over the wire tears rolled up in the listener's eyes and his heart almost stood still. He recognized the voice, and, as the girl finished singing the verse, he said, In a voice choking with emotion: "You are still my Annie Laurie, dear; you are still my love." It's all right now. The lover had been won backwith a song. New York Re corder. A Bust Resisting Wheat. Pisciculturists who look forward hopefully to the evolution of tho boneless shad will probably derive some encouragement from the fact that a new rust resisting variety of wheat is being eagerly sought for as seed by Australian farmers. It was noticed by a farmer in South Australia several years ago while reaping a badly rusted field of wheat that among ; it were some heads wholly unaffected. He pioked and carefully saved them and sowed the " grain the next year. It yielded well and showed no sign of rust. From that beginning the stock was in creased until 20 acres were raised last year, the crop of which was taken at a good price.

Alden Ad-, : CLARA 'iM0RHIS'''8TAnTr "Her 'Karly Career Described by the Han .Wno Taught Ber. . - "When Clara Morrisf was 1 baptized in an Episcopalian church recently people began asking, how long she had been on the stage, Theater go era "who aro now men and women re-' call the f uroro she created at Daly's theater years ago when they were boys and girls. Clara , Morris then was hardly more than a girl, but she I already had several years of stage zperienoe, if ' the story of old John Ellsler, the veteran ex-actor and the atrical manager, is true.- Ellsler is now in Philadelphia, where he keeps a littlo shop untroubled by the va garies of dramatic -ventures. . A reporter for the Washington Post ran across tho old man in Kan sas City a few days ago and listened to the following story of how Clara Morris got her start: "She drifted npon the stage," said old John as he filled his queer little brier root ; pipe an4 lighted it. "Clara's name wasn't Morris, but Morrison. At the time I mother first I was the owner of the old Academy of Music on Bank street in Cleveland. Clara's mother was, I believe, from, Ireland originally, but Clara was born here. Her mother was cook in a boarding house near the theater, and as soon as Clara got into her teens she was very anxious to do something, earn some money, I to maxe me a uttie easier tor ner mother. - "In the many years that I knew her and even as a girl Clara Morris was possessed by two strong ideds. ' One was that she herself had but a short time to live, and the other that she must work and slave and save and scrape together money enough before she died to make her mother securely comfortable. Well, she's not dead yet, and she has her mother safe and well in a house on the Hud son, all in the old lady's name. Clara's temperament was melan choly, and that and the trouble with her back may have induced her to look only for a short life. The in jury to her back arose from some- ody striking or kicking her before she was old enough to recollect it. "When Clara Morris came to me, ' ' continued Ellsler, "she was merely looking for work. She wasn't think ing of the stage. She came to the theater just as she might have gone into a restaurant as a waitress had she known of such a place. The the ater merely 'chanced to be near at hand. I had her trained and put her in my ballet. For three years Clara danced in the ballet. She put in a good bit of time at my theater even when she wasn't working, and as she was very quiet and careful and. well behaved I used to have her on a great deal in walking parts when the ballet wasn jb on the bills. "To make a long story short, I could not tell when Clara Morris spoke her first lines on the stage, neither the play nor the occasion. The first I recollect on that point is that she was acting small parts and acting them well. In five years after she began to speak lines she was the best actress in my company too good, in fact, for any part I could eiveher." , Silver candlesticks were known in Britain as early as A.
