-i i i t i- i-t i i i : i BARBARA'S t ESCAPE. iS? Henry Millbrook's engagement to Bar bara Esmond, the heiress, was the theme . of general club comment and congratula tion. His friend Mr. Piercy wished she ' bad a sister with half the money as Mill- - firook sauntered away to get his picture taken for his ladylove. Signor Fernelli, the artist, was at home and very glad to receive Mr. Millbrook's order. As Millbrook sat waiting for Signor Pernelll to brinp out some specimens of Us art he saw through the open door a 'dark silk dress brush by and the pure, ijlear protile of a face that he well knew -Barbara Esmond's face. "Hello!" ejaculated our hero. "Fer , belli, who the deuce is that young lady, and how came she here?" "It is the music mistress of Pauline Delatour up stairs. ' She comes twice of the week and sings, my word, like ft nightingale." "Who is Pauline Delatour?" "A poor girl, signor, who sews on Presses, but one day she will come out on the stage she will sing at the opera." Harry Millbrook stared at Signor Fer nelli like one demented. "Which size did you say, sir?" "I I don't think I'll make a selection today. I will call tomorrow." And Mr. Millbrook rushed headlong Sown stairs, greatly to the surprise of Signor Fernelli. - "The deuce!" he ejaculated to himself s he strode along the narrow street; .with difficulty restraining himself from tumbling at every other step over the babies who swarmed in the gutters. "A music mistress! Giving lessons in such a hole as that! Upon my word, I've come preciously near being taken in and done for!" He lifted his hat and wiped the chill beads of perspiration from his forehead. Barbara Esmond had fluttered lightly Bp the narrow staircase, ail unconscious iof the eyes that were noting her through Signor, Ferneili's partially opened door, and entered a small room in the story above. A pale young girl, with a sweet, spirituelle face, sat at her sewing by the (Window. She brightened up as the deli CBte figure came in. "Miss Esmond, it is so kind of you to remember me so punctually. "Not at all kind. I am a genius wor shiper, Pauline, and I have discovered the divine spark in you." "How shall I ever repay you. Miss Es mond?" "By cultivating the talent heaven has bestowed upon you. Nay, nay, Pauline. I am but following out a pet whim." - The lesson was longer than usual that day. Pauline and Miss Esmond , were both deeply interested, and it was nearly twilight before Barbara emerged from the house, closely veiled, and walked swiftly through the darkening streets. "There's a note for you. Miss Bar . bara," said her housekeeper, as she sat down to rest a minute or two in the re tention room of her own mansion before she laid off her things. "A note? Let me see it." It was very brief, but cruel as a blow. "Miss Esmond," it read, commencing bhortly and sternly, instead of the "Dear- - est Barbara" she had expected. Allow in to claim back the troth 1 have plight ed to you. I had supposed when I engaged myself to you that I was about to ally myself to a lady. ; not to music mistress in Grove street It will - scarcely be worth while for you to reply to this (letter,, as J can never, under any circumstances, ' forgive the deceit that -list been practiced upon . we. Therefore 1 shall take it. for granted that all relations are ended between yourself and yours. very respectfully, H. MuuraooK. , Barbara dropped the Insulting letter, with a sparkle in her black eyes, a curve te her lip. which were wondrously elo quent. .N ' "" - "Th puppy l" she muttered between tier set teeth. "The miserable poltroon How could I ever have fancied for a sin gle second that I loved him? Reply to this letter! Of course I shall not reolv to And Miss Esmond walked up stairs, carrying : her Ihead high' in the ahy far, 5 la beyond the' reach ; of Harry Mill r brook's petty spite. . ; . .

TTarrr had mart m!sfnlr mistake that was likely to be fatal to his brilliant matrimonial aspirations. , - "Why didn't I wait?
