I
! FOR THE SAKE OF LOVE.
(By Ingeborg Peterson.)
Anna Sander was bo happy.
"It is really you, dear friend! who
come to me. What a terrible long
time it is since we have had a chat
together."
"You are so kind, Miss Sander."
"Am I so kind?"
"Yes, you are so hospitable!"
"I am so thankful, Dear Sir It
was so nice of you to come today '
"And do you know why I camo to
day of all days?"
"No , Thought I thought of you
this morning perhaps it is really
so, that one may wish for someone
so strongly, that it really "
She looked straight at him with a
little smile and saw his smile,
which she knew so well, and which
had always seemed to her like the
rays of the morning sun. Today it
was different, there was a stronger
feeling in his eyes she could not
help laughing just a little scorn
fully.
"Yes," he said, and his mannor
changed, v
"It was these two roses," he said
and went over to the window, they
stand so strange the one turns
away from the other that made me
feel so lonesome, that I just had to
come up here.
She laughed again a little more
serious.
"You are laughing today ?'
"Yes, my friend, there is no raa
son why I should cry."
"You say that, as if you wished
me to do so."
"Perhaps," she said, "that would
be something new."
"Tell rae, is it I who makes you
sad? a moment ago you were In such
excellent humor
"No, you never make me feel sad,
you always make mo feel happy, and
It was just because of you that I
was so happy "
"And now?"
"Now? Now I am happy that you
are still here. Let lis sit down. Let
us enjoy this moment. I had so
much to talk to you about, and now
I have nothing nothing nothing."
As she was leaning her head
against the back of the chair, look
ing not at him, and not at anything
in particular, a nappy smile nestled
around her lips.
But then he stood in front of her,
and she stood up, as if ho had or
dered her to do so, and bowed her
head obediently and listened: "What
makes you talk like that it is Is
it love?" .
"Love," she whispered, all out of
breath, "it is such a beautiful
i word
Resting his hand on her shoulder
he whispered, whispered as was it
only a small, small word compared
to love Itself. He bowed her head,
and softly his hand slid from her
shoulder down nor arm. Firmly his
hand took hers. Softly, softly ho
pressed her own hand against her
heart and then when she already
felt herself in his arms, she invol
untarily stopped away from him to
ward the window. The silence was
like a mighty cry, only to be stop
; ped by words.
Ho walked across the floor with a
firm step and back again to her. She
had picked up the flower glass, nnd
stood toying with the roses. The
one was straight nnd did not rest
against the top of tho glass. For
one moment they stood flower
against flower, as she wanted them
to, but suddenly the one turned
He did not look at her, and not
as tho roses.
"You turned back," ho said. "I
Oh how I understand this "'
. "I knew, or at least hoped that
you would understand me "
He laughed.
"Oh yes," ho said, "It Is not so
deep. You had to know, you had to
be quite sure that I loved you. You
were not too proud to accept that
sacrifice. Just to the critical point
you had to lead me, had to make mo
open my whole soul to you, and then
you were once moro tho lady who
has never given herself to any man,
but had to, must feol the man's faith
In her hands. Only to enjoy the
sensation and then you pull back
your little cruel hand, and" tell me to
go wherever I want to You do not
care."
She stood straight and tall, press
ing her hands against tho window
Bills, listening if there should be
more.
"Aro you now quito suro you re
member It that you never have !
doubt that if you had been young
This was tho way ho took your hand,
and you lot him tako It, you were so
close to him and then
She sank into his arms.
"Why why don't you kiss me,"
bIid whispered and looked into his
fare, and then he suddenly saw how
wlilto was her face and how Bad her
eyes, and all his anger was gone.
Nothing, ho had nothing to say at
all ho did not move until sho had
sat down, then he threw himself
down In front of her nnd whispered
time and again:
"Forglvo mo Anna, forglvo me
lt not now "
And sho kept on answering: "It
is not I not I "
At last she pulled his hands tway
from his eyes, looked and looked at
his hands, kissed 'them time and
again, until he lifted up his head,
and they looked at each other silent
so long, that at last they had to talk.

could not find words, "There is
something you love."
"Yes," she said, "you know that."
"Oh yes," he said, "when one sees
you, ono knows."
"Yes, yes," she said and trembled.
Ho stood up quickly.
"One knows so much," ho said,
"one knows so surely and believes
and always has believed something
and little by little, when one loves
so hopelessly, a little doubt enters
one's mind, until some day one be
lieves just the opposite, believes in
one's own happiness. In spite of all
common sens "
"And that is my fault," she asked.
"Fault! ' It is the fault of love.
You needed the happiness it gives to
have someone love you, - to have
s6meonc that was able to see how
beautiful ;jipu are, someone to sus
pect the happiness you alone can
give you and that I could, I could
give you that I gave and you took
but in reality it was just the op
posite, it was always you who gave:
Your joy, your smile, your words -which
I must misunderstand, he
cause 1 loved you, how I do lovo you
now now"
"Do you know," she said quietly,
"do you know that I have no higher
wish now than to be with you, talk
to you, be with you "
He stood up quickly, as If he still
hoped for the miracle to happen
"Hut," sho continued, and a calm
ness came into her voice, and a clear
ness Into her eyes. "There is a man
as a person blown out a candle,
thus ho could, whenever ho. wanted
to, extinguish our happiness. Ho has
all the power and all the light, for
he is the only one.
Ho also was calm, it was as if ho
forgot, himself for line moment.-"
"nut this man," he asked. V Doe's
he not give you any joy? Does not
he lovo you?"
"I do not know," she said quickly
and a smile, younger than her years,
came into her face. "I do not know.
I do not believe. But it is so that he
cannot give me any joy. But, if I
am sad, so sad that I can not keep
from him, there is such a scorn in
his smile, that It lights In my heart
a flame greater than any joy-"
lie had sat down on the chair close
to the door, as if all he had to do
now, was to say good-bye. But still
he said: "Love you do not know it.
You must know love that Is only!
when everything is returned,
thought for thought, wish for wish,
hope for hope, longing for longing,
kiss for kiss before that one does
not know whom one loves "
"You are a man"
"It is true to all, men, women
alike,' he continued, as-if-it might
save his lifo Is sho would believe him.
"But I do not believe," she said,
"That women I do not. believe that
It Is necessary for me to be so much
mistaken "
"Hut you do not know, If you are
not mistaken--"
"Neither do you know, if I do"
"It Is like a shade," he mumbled,
"darling, if this shade would only
disappear from your path! If this
man should die?"
"Die," she repealed, and her voice
sounded like a cry. . "If ho should
dicyenr do not know what you say.
You speak of a shade, but ho Is the
most, divine -man, and if wo do not
meet so very offer here in life, he
will at least be there to close my
eyes " .
Without saying good-bye without
making any noise, ho left her, and
was gone before she knew It.
She kept on talking as if she felt
that somebody was listening: "When
everything 'olso means nothing to
him.', then I still feel this one un
changeable thing my love, which is
greater than I myself It is like a
sword suspended above my head. In
finitely feeble I feel, and still strong
enough to save him, for if I forget
him, would then not his heart feel its
lonesomeness, and forget that love
exists? Should I then, who am hold
ing his happiness In my hands, be
so mean, as to forget that, because
of my poor, miserable, litle happi
ness? And I should not complain
for he whom I love, makes me hap
pier than anyone who loves me. I
am his, year after year, summer af
ter summer, I give him, and perhaps
he will sometimes say to himself:
"Anna Sander I wonder if she did
not love mo?'
THE IXFLVKXCE OF TALKING
BILLS AND OTHElt THINGS.
Communicated.
To the Editor: The wires seem
to bo worried, and perhaps ihe free
passes of the big ikes of the great
big republican party are worn out
by the', frequent, vim to Washing
ton, the meeca of tho tony southern
reiitil' leans in (nit-it of who the ego
up there wants to 'jo nominated for
the presidency.
There is gro;t travail among tho
faithful s'nee Roosevelt has quit tne
race and got disgusted with the dis
play of Grover Cleveland's clerk,
Cortelyou, for president. Roosevelt
probably suspects that the under
mining business was accomplished
by Piercpont, and that, while Tn ft
was away, Hitchcock was hitching
tip a lot of southern postofflce igloo
inhabitants for work.
And it will bo no wonder if Roose
velt should show the door to Cortel
you and his main supporters In
North Carolina who have been pa
rading falsely under cover of Roose-
j veil. It is time for the president of
tho I'nited States to know the con-
Wilmington, N. C, Dec. 23. Cap
tain Lake, 45 years old, master of
the British steamer Hlllmero, which
cleared Saturday for Bremen with a
cargo of cotton, was found dead lu
his cabin yesterday as the steamer
was passing down the river on her
way to sea. Captain Lake had been
suffering with acute nervousness for
several days before leaving here and
it is believed that, either by mistake
or design he took carbolic acid in
sufficient quantity to cause his death.
Captain Lake was a native of Liver
pool..; Captain Lake leaves a wife and
one child, to whom he cabled an af
fectionate message before leaving
port at 7 o'clock Saturday morning.
He was a man of polished manner,
but had been drinking to some ex
tent since he had been in port, this
having accentuated his nervous trou
ble, for which he had been under
treatment by Dr. E. J. Wood. The
night before he sailed he was in
good shape and the first officer of the
ship was confident that tho captain
would be all right once the vessel
was at sea.
Shortly before he left port, how
ever, he came ashore and it is be
lieved that at that time he secured
the deadly poison which he after
wards took, in a fit of depression, as
his ship was passing down the river
in the wake of a tugboat. His ship
mates endeavored to keep him in
his cabin and counseled him to be
quiet, in his very nervous state, but
shortly before he was found dead he
crawled upon deck. A little later ho
was found in his cabin dead as the
result of carbolic acid poisoning.
The autopsy was performed by Dr.
Sprague, of the United States quar
antine station, and enough of th-3
drug was found in his system to Kill
six ordinary men. An undertaker
went to Southport yesterday evening
and the remains will be prepared for
burial there, following an Inquest to
be held today to officially determine
the cause of death. The family iu
Liverpool will be notified by the
British consul there.
