There was a man called Bronckhorst three cornered, middle aged man, in the army, gray as a badger, anri, some, people said, with a touch of country blood in Mm. That, however, cannot be oroveid. ' Mrs. Bronckhorst was not exactly toudk. though 15 years younger than her husband. bhe was a lareo, pale, aulet woman, with heavy eyelids, overweak eyes and hair tnat turned red or yellow as the lights fell on it. . ' -. Bronckhorst was not niee in anv war. He bad no respect tor the petty pnblio and private lies that' make life a little less nasty than it is. His manner toward bis wife was coarse. There are many things, including actual assault with the clinched fist, that a wife will endure, but seldom a Wife can bear, as Mrs. Bronckhorst bore, with a long course of brutal, hard chaff, making light of her weaknesses, her head aches, her small fits of gayety, her dresses, her queer little attempts to make herself attractive to her hnsband when she knows that she is not what she lias been, and, worst of alL the love that she. spends on her children. That particular sort of heavy handed jest was specially, dear to Bronckhorst. I suppose that he had first slipped Into it, meaning no harm, in the honeymoon, when folk And their ordinary stock or en dearments run short, and so go to the other extreme to express their feelings. A similar impulse makes a man say, "Hutt, you old beast," when a favorite horse noz zles his coat front. Unluckily, when the reaction of marriage' sets, in, the form of speech remains, aDd, the tenderness having died out, hurts the wife more than she cares ,to say. But Mrs. Bronokborst was devoted to her Teddy, as she called him. Perhaps that was why he objected to her. Perhaps this is only a theory to account for. bis infamous behavior later on he gave away to the queer, savage feeling that sometimes takes by the throat a husband 20 years married, when he sees, across the table, the same, same face of his wedded wife and knows that, as he has sat facing it, so must be continue to sit nntil the day of its' death or his own. Most men and all women know the spasm. It only lasts for three breath's, as a rale, must be a throw back" to times when men and women were rather worse than they are now and is too unpleasant to be discussed. Dinner at, the Bronckhorsts was an in fliction few men cared to undergo. Bronckhorst took a pleasure in saying things that made his wifo wince. When their little boy came in at dessert, Bronck horst used to give him half a glass of wine, and, naturally enough, the poor little mite got first riotous, next miserable and was removed, screaming. Bronckhorst asked If that was the way Teddy usually behaved, and whether Mrs. Bronckhorst could not spare some of her time to teach the "little beggar decency." Mrs. Bronckhorst, who loved the boy more than her own life, tried not to cry her spirit seemed to have been broken by her marriage. Lastly Bronck horst used to say: ''There! That'll do that'll do. For God's sake try to behave like a rational woman ! Go into the draw ing room." Mrs. Bronckhorst would go, trying to carry it all off with a smile, and the guest of the evening would feel angry and uncomfortable. After three years of this cheerful life for Mrs. Bronckhorst had no woman friends to talk to the station was startled by the npwsithat Bronckhorst had insti tuted proceedings on the criminal count against a man called Biel, who certainly had been rather attentive to Mrs. Bronck horst whenever she appeared' in pnblio. The utter want of reserve with' which Bronckhorst treated his own dishonor helped us to know that the evidence against Biel would be entirely circumstan tial and native. There were no letters, but Bronukhorst said openly that he would rack heaven and earth until he saw Biel superintending the manufacture of carpets in the Central jail. Mrs. Bronckhorst kept entirely to her house and let charita ble folks say what tbey pleased. Opinions were divided. Some two-thirds of the station jumped at once to the con clusion that Biel was guilty, but a dozen men who knew and liked him held by him. Biel was furious and surprised. He denied the whole thing and vowed that he would thrash Bronckhorst within an Inch of his Ufa. No jury, we knew, could con vict a man on the criminal count on na tive evidence in a land where yon can buy a murder charge, including the corpse, all complete, for 54 rupees, but Biel did not care to scrape through by the benefit of a doubt. He wanted the whole thing clear ed, but, as ho said one night, "He can prove anything with servants' evidence, and I've only my bare word." This was about a month 'before the case came on, and, beyond agreeing with Biel, we could do little. All that we could be sure of was that the native evidence w,6uld be bad enough to blast Biel's character for the rest of his service, for when a native begins perjury be perjures himself thoroughly. He does not boggle over details. Some genius at the end of the table whereat the affair was being talked over said: "Look here!- I don't believe lawyers are any good. Got a man to wire to Strick land and beg him to come down and pull us through." , Strickland was about. 180- miles np the line. He had not long been married to Miss Toughal, but he soented in the tele gram a chance of return to the old detective work that his soul lusted after, and next night be came in and heard our story. He finished his pipe and said oracularly: "We must get at the evidence, Oorya bearer, Mussulman khit and methrani-ayah, I sup pose, are the pillars of the charge. Z am on in this piece, but I'm afraid I'm get ting rusty in my talk." He rose and went into Biers bedroom, where his trunk had been put, and shut the door. An hour later we heard him say: "I hadn't the heart to part with my eld make ups. when I married. - WiU this do?" : There was a loathly fakir salaaming ia t-he doorway. - "Now lend me. 60 rupees," said Strick land, "and give me your words ot honor that you won't tall my wife." - : He got all that he asked for and left the house while the table drank his health. What he-did only he himself knows. A fakir hang about Bronckborst's com pound for 12 days. Then a mobter ap peared, and when Biel. heard of him he said that Strickland was an angel full Cadged.- whether the mehter made. love to JankL Mrs. Bronckhorst's ayah, is a question which concerns Strickland a clusivelr. He came bock at tbo end of three weeks and said quietly: "You spoke the truth, Biol. .-' The wholo business is put up from beginning to end. Jove, it almost aston ishes mej That Bronokborst beast. Isn't fit to live." . . - There were 'uproar and shouting, and Biel said: "How are you going to prove it? You can't say that you've neentrespassing os Bronckborst's compound in disguise I r "No,", said -Strickland., 'TeU : your lawyer fool, whoever he la, to got up some thing strong about 'inherent improbablli ties' and 'discrepancies of evidence.' He won't have to speak, but it will make him nappy. I'm going to run this business. Biel held his tongue, and the other men waited to see what would happen. They trusted btrickiana as men trust quiet men. When the case came Off, the court was crowded Strickland hung about In the veranda of the court till he met the Mo hammedan kbitmatgar. : Then be mur mured a fakir's blessing In bis ear and asked him how his second wife did. The man spun round, and as he looked Into the eyes of Eatreeken Sahib bis law drop- ed. , Yog mpst remember that Jefore Strickland was married ne was, as I have told you already, a power among natives. Strickland whispered a rather coarse ver nacular proverb to the effect that he was abreast of aU that was going on and went Into tho court armed with m trainer's gut Wbip. The Mohammedan was the first witness. and Strickland beamed upon him from the back of the court. . The man moistened his Hps with his tongue, and, in his abject foar of Estreeken Sahib, the fakir, went back on every detail of his evidence; said he was a poor man, and God was his wit ness that he lind forgotten everything that Bronckhorst Sahib had told him to say. Between his terror of Strickland, the judge and Bronckhorst he collapsed, weeping. Then began the panio among the wlt eses. . Jankl, the ayah, leering chastely behind Iher veil, turned gray, and the bearer left the court. He said that his mamma was dying, and that it . was not wholesome for any man to Ue un thriftily in the presence of Estreeken Sahib. Biel said politely to Bronckhorst: "Your witnesses don't seem to work. Haven't you any forged letters to producer"' But Bronckhorst was swaying to and fro in his chair, and there was a dead pause after Biel bad been called to order. Bronckhorst's counsel saw the look on his client's face, and, without more ado, pitched his papers on the little green baize table and mumbled something about hav ing been misinformed. The whole court applauded wildly, like soldiers at a theater, and the judge began to say. what he thought. Biel eame out of the place, and Strick land dropped a trainer's gut whip in the veranda. Ten minutes later Biel was cut ting Bronckhorst into ribbons behind the old court cells, quietly and without scan dal. What was left of Bronckhorst was sent home in a carriage, and his wife wept over it and nursed it into, a man again. Later on, after Biel bad managed to hush up the countercharge against Bronckhorst of fabricating false evidence, Mrs. Bronokhorst, with her- faint, watery imila, said that there had been a mistake, but it wasn't her Teddy's fault altogether. She would wait till her Teddy name back to her. : Perhaps he had grown tired of her, or she bad tried his patience., and per haps we wouldn't cut her any more, and perhaps the mothers would let their chil dren play with "little Teddy" again. He was so lonely. Then the station invited Mrs. . Bronckhorst . everywhere, until Bronckhorst was fit to appear in public when he went home and took his wife with him. Accordiugto the latest advices, her Teddy did "come back to her," and they are moderately happy, though, of course, be can never forgive her the thrash ing that she was the Indirect means of getting for him. What Biel wants to know is, "Why didn't I press home the charge against the Bronckhorst brute and have him run In?" What Mrs. Strickland wants to know is: How did my husband bring such a lovely, lovely Waler from your station? I know all bis money affairs, and I'm certain he didn't buy it.". What -I want to know la, "How do women like Mrs. Bronckhont come to marry men like Bronckhorst?" And my conundrum is the most unan swerable of the three. Kudvard Kipling. EASY GOING CONVICTS. . How They IT.rjJoy Lire In m Prison la tna Marquesas. That ' 'the French are a good natured people and make easy masters" was Robert Louis Stevenson's conclusion when he had studied the varions pro tectorates that serve lor governments in the south sea islands. The Marquesas group, for instance, is nnder French controL Mr. Stevenson tells in "In the South Seas" how he visited the cala boose at Tai-o-hae the port of entry and found it empty. From this noontide quietude it must not be supposed the prison was unten anted. The calaboose at Taio-hae does a good business. But some of its occu pants were gardening at the residency, and the rest were probably at work up on the streets, as free, as our scavengers at home, although not so industrious. On the approaoh of evening they would be called in like children from play, and the harbor master, who is al so the jailer, would go through the form of locking them up until 6 the next morning. . Shonld a prisoner have any call in town, whether of pleasure or affairs, he has but to unhook the window Shutter, and if he is back again and the shutter decently replaced by the hour of call on the morrow he may have met . the har bormaster in the avenue there will be no complaint, far less any punishment Hut this is not all. The charming French resident, M. De lamella, carried me one day to the calaboose on an offi cial visit. In the green court a very rag ged gentleman, his legs deformed with the island elephantiasis, saluted ' us, smiling. . "One of our political prisoners an 'insurgent from Raiatea," said the resi dent, and then to the jailer, "I thought I had ordered him a new pair of trou sers?" Meanwhile no other convict was to be seen. "Well," said the resident, "where are our prisoners?' ' "Monsieur the Resident," replied the jailer, saluting with soldierly for mality, "as this is a feast day I let them go to the chase. " They were all upon the mountains hunting goats. Presently we came to the quarters of the women, likewise deserted. "Where are our good ladies?" asked the resident, and the jailer cheerfully responded, "I think, monsieur, that they have gone 'somewhere to make a visit" . It had been the design of M. Delar nelle, who was much in love with the whimsicalities of his small realm, to elicit something comical, but not even he expected anything so perfect as the last ! - To complete the picture of convict life in Tai-o-hae, it remains to be add ed that these criminals draw a salary as regularly as the president of the re public. I Ten sous a day is their hire. Thus they have money, food, shelter, clothing, and, I was about to write, their liberty.. ' : Butter and Cream aa Medicine. One of the favorite remedies of phy sicians is cod liver oil, and why is one of the mysteries of the world of medi cine, when all there is about it is an oil or fatty substance is wanted that is easily digested and quite as easily as similated, fish oil being appropriated with a small outlay of digestive power. Why cod liver oil, a product of the de composition of fish refuse, should ever have been chanced upon when butter and oream are nature's supply and at once the most readily obtainable is on- explainable. While any one can take cream or butter the consuming of fish oil requires the fortitude of a Baint and the heroism of a martyr, and, as we know, the oil does not agree with many and is hard of digestion in others. .Now, it has been demonstrated that fresh, wh salted butter is rather more digestible than oil and is pleasant to take, on thinly cut slices of bread, and as high aa jour ounces a day of this butter can be eaten with impunity by even deli cate persons, and cream can be taken to the full desire of the patient Where one is recovering from prostrating sick-; ness and the- body needs nourishment this fresh butter, it is now asserted, has no equal in building np the wasted tis sues of the body, - and as a stimulant verr hot. fresh milk is without a rival, outside of the use of alcohol, which last is better left alone, when possible, Growing children may be greatly bene fited by indulging in generous amounts of batter, though it may seem expen sive", but it may prove the cneapest in the end. Either of these remedies can be taken without a doctor' prescrip tion and is outside of the "kill or core" warrant Practical Farmer, T The Olympie Amphitheater. :i.

Tina inclosed a stadium or 'foot race course of 00 yards in length of cir cuit, and within- its oval, were- held other games, but not the horse and chariot races. There are no signs of seats and the spec tators must have viewed the games from the grassy terraces above, where there was room for a multitudes 60,000. The hip podrome, of which only faint traces have been found, was laid out onlv a little way from this stadium.

X7I-1 Mrs. Sorratt's Arrest, j ' On the night of Monday, AprU 17, Mri Surratt was arrested. While the officers wcro searching her house Payne appeared at the door. He was admitted by one of the searching party, and, being examined as to his identity, stated that ho had been engaged by Mrs. Surratt to dig a gutter for her in tho back yard the next morning (he had a pick on his shoulder) and; had come to receive further instructions as to tho work. This at 11 o'clock at nicrbtl Mrs. Surratt was summoned, and, when asked if ehe knew the man, said vehement ly, raising her hands to heaven, "Before God I do not know this man and; did not engage him to dig a gutter for me!" Payne had spent the night at Mrs. Sor ratt's on one or two occasions, had visited the house frequently, and she knew him well. At tho moment of this statement by Mrs.- Surratt Payne stood in the full light of the gas jet.
