’ When Charles Thorpe entered, his
house at a quarter to right that samp'
evening he teemed to be greatly trou-

He had taken several Inrn* aronnd

with a kite, as usual, at soon as his

On going toward the door to rail bis

• letter lying on the centra table, di

He opened It, and, with Increasing

“Cons home! What for, I wonder?

ably. And left me with a deaf and
dumb servant! Understands signs

Master' Charley stood for a few mo
ments lu ntter perplexity, frowning nt
the letter and pulling hie mustache.
Finally be left the bouse.
The deaf and dnmb servant in the
kitchen heard him slam the door loud
ly, and shook her head, sighing deeply.
He had' given her ne orders about
ten, and she was In a quandary.
Should she go np Into the parlor and
lay the cldth?
Or sbonld ehe keep in the solltilde Of
her basement kitchen Untli the master
returned and made khown bit pleas
ure?
Before the had- debated the qneatlon
long with herself, the latchkey turned
again In tbo lock. He wee coming
back..
But thle time, be wae not alone.
A woman’s Toi.ee sonnded In the hall.
The soft rustle of a woman's dress
passed by the kitchen staircase, where
the now scrrnnt wee listening, and
then the parlor bell rang.
The deaf and dnmb woman caught
np the tray of dlehes that stood ready
on a side .'table and went upstairs.
Mr. Thorpe, glancing np at hie new
servant; saw a middle-aged woman,
bent and stooping, whose thin, sad
face, deeply wrinkled, was half hid'
den by a widow’s cap and spectacles,
and tome narrow bands ot black hair,
well sprinkled with gray,
“Poor soul! She. looks ns If she bod
seen-a world of trouble," he thought,
nnd then dismissed her from his mine).
In Hetty’s own armchair, before the
lire, rat. another Wldbw, young, lovely
nnd fnecllintlug id a degree..
. On ber the eyes ot the master rested
more complacently. and with good
reaiaa;
Pew men conld have restated the
charm of those deep blue eyos and
goldon locks, and that wild rose com
plexlon, that contrasted so strangely
with the heavy'widow's cap she wore.
The deaf and dumb servabt waited
deftly enough dnrlng supper, and was,
of count, no reatralnt npon.the conver
sation.
After the table had been cleared
away the piano was opened., For more
than an hour a blrd-llke soprano war
bled Charley’s favorite songs, and
Charley listened ss happily as If there
had been no absent Hetty In the world,
"Hark! Some one Is sobbing and cry
Ing near the door,” raid the fair widow
suddenly, as she finished a 8coteh p>
that Hetty loved, “Ob,. Charier, If I
have been watched and perhaps fol
lowed to this house, jvhat shall we
do?"
Her trembling hande fell with n crash
upon the keys. The crimson died tway
from her Ups and cheeks, and she
clung to him, nnnerved by somo sud
den thought ot terror.
“It is nothing but yonr fancy, An
na," said Charley, freeing himself and
opening the door.
But even he was thoroughly startled
when he saw the new servant crouch-
Ing on the first step of the staircase,
near the parlor, with her head bnrled
In her clasped hands, and rocking to
and fro In a paroxysm of grief or
pain, .
"Aro yon liir he asked loudly, lay
ing bis hand upon her shoulder.
Absorbed In her own sufferings she
bad not heard the opening door. As
Charley touched her she screamed ont
nnd lifting her bead, showed a face
streaming with tears.
“Are yon lit?" asked -Charley again.
“Can we do anything for yon?”
t She looked from him to the graceful,
shrinking figure In the doorway.
Tbqn she rose, pointing to her mouth
and cheek, and making a strango
moaning kind of nolee. ns she took, the
lamp ehe had left on the hall table ynd
hobbled down to her basement room.
“A sadden attack of toothache or
neuralgia In the face, at near as I can
mike one her meaning,” raid Char
ley. “Vfhy, Anno, how pale yon are!”
"That >om#n frightens me. There
It somethtng very strange about ber.
Do tend her away, dear Charley,"
pleaded the pretty widow, laying ber
band npon bis arm.
Her shadow, ai ahe stood beside
him at the open door, was projected on
tbe wall opposite the'kitchen stairs.
If shy could have.seen the gleaming
eyes thht watched It; If ehe conld have
caught one glimpse of the dnmb wo
man's face at she stood listening on
that staircase,' she might well have felt
alarm.-
•Won’t yon send her away, Char
ley?" the soft voice pleaded.
Whnt! before Hetty comes back?"
replied Charley, who was now search
ing tbe pockets of his overcoat, which
hnng on the wall, for a cigar.
“Oh, yet! This very night, Charley!
She gave me each a look Jnst now. I
am certain ehe Is not quite right In
her mind, deer. I shall not be able to
close my eyes this night If that dread
ful woman stays In the bouse!”
“Don't be foolish, little one! Do yon
think 1 would let harm come near you-
tn this home?" said Charley, finding
hta cigar at latt and Ugh ting it. “The
woman la 111, afflictad, and unhappy.

“Ob, dearl I wish the little woman

chair to prepare for bed,
“She Is here, Charley," said a low
voice behind him.
“Why, how on earth did yop get In,
dear?" be aeked. “I locked tbe doors
myself.v
“Ob, Charley, yon will hate me and'
despite me, when yon know;" she
Bobbed, binding his proffered embrace;
“Kd, don’t kiss tab till I’ve told yoni

Vina came here thle afternoon, and
the’ told me something about yon; and
when I wouldn’t bellevo It, ehe took
me doWii to her own room, and there
t saw yon, Charley, going Into a home
•In Washington street, and meeting a
lady that you klsaed! Miss Vloa raid
she had watched yon going there every
evening for a whole week, and ehe told
me of a way In which I cpuld find ont
for myself what It all meant.' And.
oh, Charley, she disguised • me and
pa lilted my face, and I wae the dnmb
woman! And I raw yon bring that
lady here, and I heard ber slug my
tongs to yon, and I sat outside pn tbe
•talre, crying and praying that I could
die, for I thought It wae Ida Russell,
who was yonr first love, yon know,
Charley, and who to a widow now.”
“Id* ftnasell!" cried Charley; Indig*
nantly.
'I know! t know!” raid Hetty, Inter-
rnptlOg biro. “But t did not know then
and at laet t became' angry, Charley;
find half deipentfd, and T had euch
dreadful tbonghta about her that I
was afrdld. Then I heard yon call ber
stater, nnd I remembered Anna at
once. I put off my dtagulee, and
washed off the paint, and waited till
she had gone to bed to come and ask
yon to forgive me., Bnt I’m afraid yon
never can.”
It was impossible to cherish any feel
ing of resentment, with the Image of
the weeping figure on the atalre eo
fresh in bis memory.
Poor child! What an evening yotr
must have passed, thanks to that med
dling old maid," he said, kindly. "Bnt

oppression of tortnre had found pertiia-
lieat lodgment among hta fentures..
To this wrecked creature, rays Mr;
TV, L. Comfort. nn‘ American corre
spondent, writing In the Japan Times,
came a member of the Imperial house
hold. bearing the appreciation of the
Emperor, and a few hours later the
secret agent died.
Mr. Comfort tints describes the ter
rible experiences through which Ito
passed before lie came to hta pathetic
cud.
Soon After the wav begad ltd and
another spy named Shibata formed h
daring plan to entrap n Russian train
coming south from Mukden. Shilmta
Was to blow hp the bridge at Hsifeng,
while Ito was to perform ti similar
act at the IJao-Ktank, waiting there
until the train had safely passed over
tbe bridge.
It would tlien be trapped between
two shattered bridge?, when Ito wontd
make hta way across country to a place
forty miles distant, where a Japanese
detachment of 303 men were stationed,
and lead them to the derelict train.
Ito parted from Shibata at the II*!-
feng. He made a whlo detour through
tljo lec-bonnd forest anil reached the
I Liao on the following noon. The
weather was bitterly cold, bat Ito had
two days' scant supply of rice nuil
dried flab, and kept on the move to
avoid frccstng. He made hta way east
to the main line bridge, nnd concealed
himself In the Ironwork of the strnc-
tnre at nightfall to await tbe coming
of the' train. There -was a Russian
sentry at each end of the bridge. These
Ito avoided hy approaching tbe struc
ture from the frozen river bed and
climbing np tbe embankment to tbe
Iron braces.
There be waited for seven terrible
hours. Tlie troop train that he had
expected early In the evening Aid not
arrive nntil hours after midnight. The
night was clear, bright and deadly
cold. Ito lay along the girders. The
freexlng iron sank Into bis, bones. The
torturo In hta limbs gave way to numb
ness as tbe boars passed.
He fell Into a half stupor, from, which
the tytfn awakened him nnd almost
shook Jilin from bis position.- He lay
for many mtnntes while the girder
hammed fainter nnd fainter, bnt so
paralyzed In hta llmb»>that he could
scarcely move. He drew himself np
to a sitting posture nt last nnd kneaded
the Ufe back with hta knuckles.
Tbe charge of powder had Already
been set; Ito pulled off Ills mittens and
fumbled In tbe pocket ot hta wadded
coat for matches. The matches were
there, hot hta dead fingers conld not
grip them. He crashed open' the
pocket with the etrengtb of hta arms
and clntebed the box In bis palm. Hta
mind wae confused with torture nnd
desperation. He knew but two things
—that be ninst fire the powder and
tell Yoeblmoto, tbo Japanese captain.
If he lost hta life In accomplishing the
first the detachment would not know.
The first match broke unllgbted. He
waited an instant to learn If tbe Rns-
alan sentry had beard. He realized
now tbe big mtatako lie bad made In
taking hta position on tbe brldge.before
the coming of the train. Had he
walled at the river until the train had
passed, he wonld have been able to
keep off the cold. He struck the see.
ond match, working hta hands as a
babe wonld ‘fumble with a clumsy tool.
The enlphor lighted with a crackle
that waa like thnnder In the midst of
the deep ellence.. At Ito dropped In
a heap to tbe enow of the river bed,
fourteen feet below, he beard the feet
of the aroneed sentry above.
The spy railed toward the opposite
side of the river onder tbe shelter of
the bridge. He heard the first sentry
shout to the other bi Russian that
some one had scratched a match. The
sentry on the far tide atarted, for the
first, and passed over the bridge above
Ito. Tbe latter, on hta hands and
knees, since hta feet and lower limbs
would not yet support him, moved
stiffly to the further pier; then. Judg
ing as. beat he could the time that the
fuse wonld last, darted ont from under
the structure to the moonlight. He
was a moment too soon.
One of the sentries yelled and fired
hta rifle. The bullet snapped past Ito’a
ear. There wae a second ehot, and
the missile sprawled the spy upon the
snow for an instant. Then mine tbe
horrid crash of the explosion, and
the northern end of the bridge was
wreckage In which were mingled be
yond flnding the bodies of the two sen
tries.
Ito was senseless for a time. He re-
.rojrered slowly, nnd leatned that the
scjonil bullet lied lodged high In hta
left nrm, but he saw the completeness
of bis work on the bridge and waa glad.
He made hta way to the shelter of the
nonthorn back, bound the wound with
'his loin cloth, and then, with frozen
extremities and weak from the lose of
blood, started east along tbe Uao River
bed for Yoablmlto'e hiding place In the
mountains.
It seemed Us he made hta way for-

CASE OF TRUE COUfiAfSB-
On the front lent of an open trolley
cat bound east on Chestnut street from
1VCat Philadelphia the other evening
at a boat aidi clock (at a woman en
veloped in i light shonldej' wrap. The
only other passengers were IhrtC *en
on the smokers' seats In the rear. At
Sixteenth etreet the woman threw
aside tbe wrap, when It was seen tbjt
the elaborate waist she wee wearing,
made to button In tbe back, waa un
buttoned except' the very top button.
The garment was rather dose-fitting,
and the woman bad lost the sllmneea
of youth, ea that tbe opening gaped
wide nnd showed a targe expanse of
dsttallng white neck nnd shoulder, with
the intertable colored ribbon, threaded
tbrongh a lot of film/ a tuff, Just be
low.
This unexpected eight threw two of
the med Id tbe rear Into a elate of ner-
vone excitement, Of, at leaet, It waa
about td do so; bnt thing# began to
happen right away; The Ihlrd man,
with an absence of hesitation that
shonld entitle him to a good (lice of
the Carnegie hero fund, racked a ehort
pipe ho waa amokihg Into hi# pocket,
slid off hta seat nqd moved along the
footbqara to the seat Just behind the
woman, who was wholly unconsdone
of the eltnatlon and serenely comforta
ble In the belief that her toilet waa
complete and effective. The man waa
a steady-looking Individual, not sug
gestive of the masher nor the seeker of
adventurer, nnd acted In a very calm
nnd matter of fact way. He attracted
the woman's Attention by leaning over
and tipping bis hat. Then he said
Something, evidently In explanation,
and the wdmntt, giving a little atari,
then blushing a little and then smiling,*
tamed her back on the man, who Im
mediately proceeded to button up tbe
dress. He ninst have had a wife who
wore tbe same kind Ot clothes, fot
he worked with tbe utmost sangfroid,
nnd the buttons were #11 In their places
before tbe other two men had done
gasping for breath. By this time the
ear had reached Broad etreet, and the
buttoner quietly slid to the end of tho
sent, got off and disappeared in tbe
night.
“Talk abont nerve!” said one of the
other two men, wiping the perspiration
from hta brow.—Philadelphia Record.
