mnoci Elliot, that !h lior name," mur
mured GiiCio. "It’s oh proltv ns lier sweet,
Smiling fneo; nud now to report to Iho
padrone, nud then to steal away with littlo
Teresa to Miss l.uoin’s to talk over our
pinna for the future."
1’oor, hopeful boy! endowed with the
Courage of a hero, and all tho nobility of
mind of n martyr, his earnest sum was soon
to bo tried to its utmost lint t of endurance.
Happily unconscious ol the dark hadows
that lined his rugged pathway of life just
as it seemed to boeomo moro hopeful nud
brighter, ho hastened homeward, fondly
thinking over h splans for I iresn’s welfare.
They would bike his savings, and, steal
ing away from tho padrone's den, tly to
•oino otlior city.
Hero they would have enough money left
to rent some rooms and live until ho se
cured work.
Ho doublod not his courage and ability
to enre for the beloved sister tor whose
happiness it would bon joy nud a pleasure
to labor night and day.
His hopoful thoughts woro somewhat
disturbed ns he entered Hie narrow court
Whoro tho padrone h house was located.
Around tho doorway of the house was
Bnnto himself and several of his familiar
associates, engaged iu low-tonod conversa
tion.
Something had happened- their sonibor
faces and serious imnui r (old Giulio this
—but what?
A shade of auxiot.v deepening on his fnco,
ho hastened his footsteps, and reached Iho
knot of men with a quick, o.cited query on
bis lips.
“What hns happened?” ho asked, sus-
ponsofullv, of ono of Iho men.
Santo answered him:
"l'our sister!"
“Teresa 1 ” gasped Giulio, in quick
alarm, his heart seeming to stand slill with
•uddon apprehension and pain
"Y’ob. " o.imo the terrible reply, "sho was
killed by the cars Ibis morning. Y our sis
ter, little Teresa, is dead!”
CHAPTER VII.
A YOUNG HUltO.
A dnsky pallor enmo ovor poor Ginlio’s
face ns bo beard the cold words that fell
from Giuseppe Kunto'u lips that proclaimed
the death of tho only being in Iho wido
world ho con'd call by an ondenritig name.
The empty basket tell from his nervelosss
primp. ho stnggered and nlmost fell against
the doorpost, and stood there like ono sud-
douly turned to slime, staring blankly at
the men before him.
“Dead! oh, unsay those crncl words. My
staler, my darling Teresa, dead, nml 1 saw
her bnt yesterday. It enunot bo—it cau-
uot be!"
But there was no refut'd ot Snnto’*
statement in the stony, indifferent faces of
tho padrono’s comp anions,
‘With a moan of stricken grief Giulio
sntik to Hie doorstep ami burio I his face in*
his hands.
Unheeding nud uncaring for bis stir-
roundings, overwind only by the awful,
eoleinn fnot that death, sudden nud terrible,
had robbed him of the ono honrt that had
bent in unison of lovo and sympathy with
his own. ho wont through nil the gradations
of hitter grief, se.f-reproach, nud uttor
despair.
YVhnt my of hope could ho boo in thnt
dark hour when the darling sister ho lmd
planned to work for and make happy iu tho
nenr future was lying cold in death? YVlmt
felenm of joy could he disc, rn in tho bleak
fnturo, now that ho stood In a cold, un
feeling world alone'!
From tho blow that had prostrated him
momentarily Gin io rallied nt last. His
faco was a void, his oyes deluged with
tonrs, his heart seemed broaking ns he
struggled to his loot and nskod, brokenly:
"Where iH sho?"
"Up there,” and Snnto pointed carelessly
to tho stairoase.
A watch ug sympathizer had noted his
coming one kind heart nt loast tried to
rob the terrib o confrontation of death with
kind word and pitying comfort.
Miss Luoia mot 'ldm at iho bend of the
stairs. At tho sight of her trie idly fea
tures Iho poor boy staggered forward and
buried his fac" in hor motherly arms,
“Ob, it can't bo true!" ho sobbed fran
tically. “Toll uio it is all a cruel lio! Sho
cannot bo d'nd, for 1 could not live with
out her. To miss her gontlo faco, hor
cheering voice and pity ng oyes, to hnvo no
ono to love, or care for, or work for -oh,
Miss Lilian, my lioait is broken! my hoart
is broken!"
She soothed him in hor soft, womanly
way ns ho solibod away his grief in hor
motherly arms. Botweon his distracted
moiiuings and the silence of dospnir hIio
told him how it bad come about—how tho
fooblo spark of lifo lmd gone out with bis
beloved name on Teresa's dying lips.
Snnto had sent her to gather coal on tho
railroad tracks. It had been her task on
pmuv previous occasions, but tho cold had
confused her, and, in stepping through tho
deop snow to evade an oncoming train, an
eDguio on tho next rails hadcomo upon her
unperceived.
The ongineor had checked the locomo
tive the moment he snw her, but it was a
moment too late. Tho noxt ho had leaped
from the cab nnd gathered hor poor
crushed form iu his amis, breathing self-
reproaches and tender pity over the child
ho had accidentally run over.
“Sho did not suffer much," murmured
Miss Lucia, in n brokun tone of vo.oo.
“Her limbs were so crushed and broken
thnt a numbness of feeling seemed to
stenl over her. They brought her homo,
and sent for a surgeon. lie said he could
do nothing for hor. When I came hero she
was dying. Oh, Giulio, sho was happy in
death, lor her lips moved in prayer, a
serupliio smile enmo over her wan faco, and
she gasped out softly, ‘Tell Giulio I am
waiting for him in heavon,' and died.”
It wns some lime before tho tender
hearted dressmaker could control her emo-
lions or subdue those of Giulio sufficiently
to allow him to enter tho room where was
laid all that was mortal of little Teresa.
“Courage, my poor boy!” sho whispered,
compassionately. “Little Teresa is better
off with ibonngels than in our feeble care.”
"But I loved her so’ she was ail 1 had
life to lovo,” wailod tho broken-hearted
Giulio.
Miss Lucia clasped his hand soothingly
as sho led him to whoro the shrouded form
of the littlo martvr lav.
All signs of tho dreadful accident were
removed. Only the white foldod arms
crossed ovor her broast, and the fair, gen
tle face, weariug a peaceful, happy expres
sion, were revealed.
Beside her lonely bier poor Giulio bent
his lieud and wept with all the earnest
grief of a heart that knew its terrible be
reavement.
It w/is only when Ksnlo, slightly subduod
in his rough manner, but still sullc-n and
»nojyii?><r pent him 0» it mission to inform
his brother of the accident, that Giulio wns
Oroused from his lethargy of grief.
The errand consumed over nu hour.
When lie returned there wns no longor a
throng about tho door. Affairs had resumed
their wonted serenity in tho court, nnd ho
Wns dumfounded to find Suuto and somo
friends smoking and drinking in tho room
r.mere his sister lay whon last he hurl ton it.
“Torosa!” ho gasped out, bewildered,
startled.
“Tbov bnvo tnkon her away. Tint is the
end of it, the inquest having been held,"
Was Santo's cool reply us hu shuttled npnek
Of greasy cards.
Giulio turned deathly pale, nnd stood for
S moment stupefied, overcome at llio pad
rone's words.
"Taken hor away?" he ropeatod, in a tone
of dread horror nnd uncertainly. "You
cannot mean that! Tho funeral——"
"Tho city will attend to that. Wlmt money
have I to waste on tho child? Sho is ilouil
—thit is theemi ot us nii. The rich rnn-
ket or tho potter’s field, it is one nnd tho
same when death comes."
“Oh, you wretch! brnlin! nllnnno!” brolto
from Giulio, intonos of Iho wildest indigna
tion and anger, unconsciously emphasizing
liis words by tho selection of terms of re-
prnaeh employed by Santo b ms If. “Yon
murdered hor—yours the b nine, yours the
.•ctrilmtion—and you refuse to grant hor
Christian burial. Wretch! coward 1 mur-
doier! why doos heaven permit such things
to ho!”
The pndrono sprang to his foot, boiling
with rnga.
“To your work. Mnledotti! yon dure to
talk to me thus, yon nnd the girl to whom
I have given a homo siiano you wore chil
dren. To work, I say, or I will Bcourgeyou!”
“Y'oti will nover boat mo again,” replied
Giulio, n dnngeioiiB gleam in his eye. “I
leavo you, GiiiHoppo Snnto, nover to return.
God will punish your awful crime. I leave
to Him your inhuman cruelty.”
“Leavo me, nnd tho police shnll drag you
to prison!" shrieked Snnto after his re-
(renting form. "Haven enro for yourself.
If you nre not bnok by nightfall, tho law
shall claim you as a vagrant and runaway.”
Giulio was too shocked nud sick at
heart to hood tho import of tho pndrouo’s
mo aco ns ho descended tho stairs.
Through a blindlugstorm of tears ho im-
nginoil his loved Torosa roughly consigned
to sumo dreary nnd unsanctifled burial.
“She shall not bo tnkon to a pauper's
grave!” ho criod wildly. "Oh, my lost
Torosa, nil my loving heart can do to make
you beautiful in dentil, ns you woro lovely
in life, shnll bo done foryru."
iie itia nut pause until ho had roaohod
Miss Lucia's home.
Ilo burst in upon her unooromonloiiBly,
and startled her with tho words:
“Y'ou know wlint they hnvo dono?”
Sho bowed her bond sadly.
"They have taken Teresa away to be bur
io 1 by the city, a pauper, tmeinimed, un--
mourned. It shall not he!”
“Can you make it otherwise?"
“I will, 1 must"
"Thon Santo will furnish Iho money to
bury her ”
“Ho!" cried Giulio soornfully, Indig
nantly. "No! tho monoy—my suvings.
Quick! Whero nro they?”
Miss Lucia started, hut renohed for the
bnnk on tho shelf and hnudod it to hor
young friend.
For Hourly n year ho had not touchod thi
hank, oxoept to pin o within it his savings.
His oyos filled with t. nrs ns ho opened it
nud transferred its bulky contents to hii
pockets.
Every coin seemod to tell a simple story
of labor and sclf-deninl. Ohl it was hard
to regard tho pnst nnd its hopeful antici
pation! i f employing this money to give
pleasure and happiness to Toresa, and
now
All his plans woro suddenly dlvertod, liis
cherished hopes crushed to onrth. and only
the last consolation loft, of consigning all
that was mortal of Torosa Wynne to its
long home as tendorly ns n loving heart
could siiggost.
He did not say anything further to Miss
Lucia about IiIb intentions, but nt once left
tho house, hiB cherished savings iu his
pocket.
Daylight was fading ns ho proceeded
down tho street. Ho was woll acquainted
with nil the policemen on tho boat, with
"'horn ho wns n gnnoral favorite, nml one of
these ho addressed nnd asked some ques
tions about the rulos regarding the burial
of Iho poor.
Ilo lenrned that an undertaker nenr th-
City Hall did tho city's work in this pnrticuo
Inr, nnd securing tho location of tho place
ho started on, his mind full of his newly
formed plans.
Among the many people whom ho met on
Iho crowded throughfaro ho did not notice
that, as ho passed a limplight, n well-
dressed gentleman paused abruptly, stared
at him fixedly, nnd then hurriod after his
receding form.
It was Mr. Elliott, tho father of tho lit
tle girl, Mabel, he had saved thnt morning
on the nvenuo.
It seemed to bo the intention of Mr.
Elliott to detain and question him, but
something in Giulia's sail und abstracted
miner aroused his iutorost, and ho deter
mined to follow him.
Giulio nt last reached a largo lighted
store. Ho paused nt the window and be
gin to count tho money ho had taken from
the hank.
Mr. Elliott, wntchiug him curiously, be
gan to feel a littlo disappointed.
"Where can lie hnvo got so much money
honestly?" he murmured. "I have taken a
rare mforost fci him .... his heroic bolinvior
this morning. I hope ho is honoet and in
dustrious. "
Giulio pursued his way, nml paused fin
ally in front of a sombor, dimly lighted
plnce.
Mr. Elliott started strangely as he opened
the door.
For it was an undertaker’s store.
CHAPTER VHI.
BETIUDUTION.
Giuseppe Snnto forgot nil nbont his
throat to hnvo Giulio arrosted for desert
ing him during tho ensuing twouty-four
hours.
Either remorse nt his past inhuman treat
ment of Teresa, or tho possession of the
monoy Dyke had paid him, led him to
drink moro freely than usual, and all tnat
night his miserable home was tuosceno of a
wild dubuuch on tho part of himself, his
friends, and, a part of the time, of Dyke.
It was into the ensuing dny when tho
Bhlp, of his long protection of Giulio, and ■
of the latter stcalmg his money and run
ning nwny from home.
Then, satisfied iu his crafty mind thnt he
would soon regain possession of his dolin-
padrone learned • u uch of Giulio to unow
that ho hud secured money somowhore to
bury littlo Torosa «t his own expense, and
also that he nover intended to return to hi*
old slavery again.
Still hnlf-drnnkon from the debauch of
the previous evening, ho made a visit to the
police office, and laid a charge against
Giulio. H« told a nathetie sti*r» of relation-
quent cnnrgo, no .. .urnea to his name.
A visitor was awaiting him, a man whom
he greeted with the cheery welcome of
hail-fellow well met, but who, with a dark
frown on his suilon brow, eyod him sub
lenly.
It wns Dyke, nnd he never rcpliod to the
padrone's salutation.
“What is Iho matter?" nskod Santo, with
a surprise that was ovidenlly nssumod.
“Don’t you know?” demanded Dyke, sul
lenly.
“No; how should I?”
"Well, ! was robbed Inst uigbt.”
“Bobbed! where, how?"
“Here—by you.”
Dyke had arisen to his feet aud clenched
his fist,
“No lies!" he cried, facing Santo fiercely.
“I see it in your false, evil i'ucu lo douy the
nnd stolo a package of papers irom my
pocket, in this room, last night. They re
fer to the caso of those two children, and
oonld bo of no value to any one except
yourself. What have you done with Ihem!
Como, no lies. There will bo serious
troublo if you do not iustantiy deliver them
up to mo. ”
Before tho determined manner of Dyke,
tho padrone quailed visibly, but ho said ;
roughly:
“Your papers? I know nothing of thorn.'
"Givo them up to me."
"Y'ou accuse mo wrongfully.”
Dyke ground liis teeth, nnd made a men
acing movement toward Sauto.
Iho padrone's head sank lmck hotweeu
his shoulders until ho nssumod (no pose of
some deadly serpent.
At tho same moment he drew a long,
murderous looking knife.
“Mnlcdoiti!" ho hissed venomously,
“You monnee mo in my own house? Go
or I will plunge (ho knife into you.”
Dyke retreated lo tho door.
“Beware! ho threatened fiercely. “You
shall not profit by the theft. I will hnvo
your lifo for your tre.a hery,”
Santo laughed derisively.
Wh n his visitor was go o. liowovor, he
looked tho door, and drew a time-worn
paokot of papers from liiB pooket.
“Dylto may well wish to seonro the
papers," he muttered, with a complacent
chuckle, “but they are now mine, anil I
shnll keop thorn. They will prove a vnlu-
ablo document against this man Vance;
they may enable mo to make n fortune by
keeping tho boy, Giulio, under my control.
I will go la search of Mm, for Dyke may
outwit mo by finding him lo bafilo and de
feat me.”
It wns about dnsk that evening whon
Snnto was returning lo his homo.
Ho had tmoed Giulio, but tho latter had
gone to tho funeral of littlo Toresa. When
he returned, the polico, notified of his
whereabouts, would nrrost him, and then
Bnnto would rognin control of him.
As the pndrono passed a corner ho
nearly staggered and fell. A man had
sprung from a shadowed doorway nnd
seized him fiercely.
“My papors!’’hissed a dolortninod voico
in his ear. “I have a revolvor ready in my
pooket, nnd will kill you if you refuse.”
It was Dyke. Tho padrone wronchod
himself free from his gmsp. Tonring n
heavy slungsliot from his pocket, ho struck
out nt his adversary.
The blow mdt Dyke fairly in tho fnco,
and ho foil to tho sidewalk.
Instantly, however, ho drew a revolver.
Ilo lovolod tho weapon straight nt Santo's
head.
“Misomblo padronol" ho criod, “traitor
nnd thiof, dio!”
Tho rovolvor snapped, bnt did not ex
plode.
In a moment Santo grappled hi# enemy.
Blow nftor blow ho rainod ou his de
fenseless head, nud thou fell hack with a
howl of pain.
Dyke had again used tho rovolvor, and
this timo with deadly effect.
Fatally wounded, tho padrone summonod
n vengeful strength lo his command.
Drawing his knife, ho fairly flung him-
solf upon his prostrnto enemy.
The knife was lifted, nud fell once, twice,
a score of times.
Whon iho snnguinnry oonflict lmd tormi-
tinted, both nteu lay deluged in blood on
tho pavement.
Dyke wns found to bo dead, bnnto in nn
expiring condition.
In the pursuanoo of his evil plots agninst
Giulio Wynne tho padrone hail mot his
doom.
Ho was romovod to liis miserable homo,
end his brothor was scut for.
Dying, unable to speak nn intolliglble
word, ho intrusted tho papers Lo had sto
len from Dyko lo his charge.
They were destinod to remain unopened
for many yonrs to coino.
Tho Wynne secret seemod to perish with
tho untimoly fato of thoso who sought to
benefit by it.
That night tho cruel pndrono paid the
petinlty of his crimes.

Ono of tho most wonderful mon of
this day is living ai few miles south of
Higginsville, Mo. Ho is known every
where u« Prof. Heubon Fields, and
probnbly the only niuu in tho country
who travels freo on railroads and never
laiaR a pass, nnd don't bother about the
long and short haul clause. Prof. Fields
is undoubtedly a matlioinatioal wonder.
Ho lnas no education whatever, does not
know a single letter of tlao alphubet, nor
lais owir name if printed iai sixtooaa-lino
pica wood type, bold faco. Nor does he
know ono figure from another, though
lie will solvo any problem iu mathemat
ics given him. Tlio Professor called nt
tho office of tho Olobe-Demoerat corres
pondent to-day anal entertained him aand
his friends for soane t-iuio. Ho never
carries a watch, but when naked what
timo of dny he promptly answered four
teen miaiutes and thirty-four seconds
after 3. Though four watches varied
slightly as to tho seconds, the minutes
woro all right. When asked on wlint
dny of (lie week the 23d day of Novem
ber, 1801, enme, lie answered, “Satur
day.” lie answered this and a number
of similar questions without a moment's
hesitation. To tlao question: “YVlnat
will thirty-niuo pounds of sugnr nt 18
(’outs n pounal amount to?” Ho prompt-
| ly answered, $5.07, and before thoso who
were figuring with him could get tho
question on paper.
Tho question: “What will nineteen
and a half yards of calico ot six and
throe-quarter cents amount to?” was
quickly answered—$1,31|. ’.these were
vory easy ones to tho Professor, aud lie
asked for something hard.
Tho following wns given him:
“If I run twenty-seven yards in ono
minute, how long will it tulie to run six
miles?” YVith very littlo study enmo
tho answer—391 1-9 minutes, or 0 hours,
311-9 minutoH.
These problems Roomed not to puzzlo
him, ns Iho unswers enmo as soon as the
questions wore asked. On tho following,
however, he required a littlo study,
owing, its ho said, to the noise about
him. The question was: “From here
to Louisiana, Mo., it is 159 niilos; how
many revolutions does tho driving
wheel of an engine, 10 foot in circumfer
ence, make iu a run from this pluco to
Louisiana?"
Thu Professor studied a little, mutter
ing strings of figures. “Millions,
billions, trillions, quadrillions, 352 to
tho mile—53,988 revolutions,” came the
answer before tlao calculators found out
how many revolutions it made to tho
nailo. Tho figures “734” were written
on paper and shown him. Ho did not
know wlmt they woro, nud, in fuot, he iu
igqonant on any other stibjeet than
| mathematics, and then the question
| must l>o asked verbally. He is 30 years
j of ago, and was born in Kentucky, lie
I olaims that his gift was given from
I heaven, nnd says thnt it enmo to him
suddenly when 8 years old. He says
J tho Lord aaaade but ono Samson, one
; Solomon, nnd ono Reub. Fields. To
\ tho one lio gave strength, to the other
wisdom, and to himself mathematical
instinct. Ho guards this iustinct with
j tho utmost onve, and will not answer
questions unless ho is paid, fonring that
! it will bo taken fa’orn him should he use
: it to satisfy idle curiosity. Ho also was
given Iho following:
“A lies a certain stun of money; lio
goes to a theatre nnd pnys$l admission,
I spends half of what ho lias left, and
} pays $1 to get out; he goes to a second
theatre and pays $L admission, spends
half lie has left, and pays $1 to gi*t out:
he goes to a third theatre, pays $1 ad
mission, spends half of what ho lnas left,
anil then pays his lust dollar to get out;
how much had he when lie started?"
While one or two of thoso present
commenced to scratch up half-forgotten
algebra, the professor was soaring
uqiong the “millions, billions, trillions,
quadrillions,” and tlion suddenly drop
ped down to $21 before tlao algebraical
calculators got their paperrendy to com
mence. Before tho professor left each
ono present know tho day of the week
each one was born on. Tlio professor
accepted a dollar with thanks, and
promised another call to-morrow.
Luxurious Lounge.
The “Parsec chair” is announced as
the tncrcssor of Ihc hammock. A sea
shore correspondent who has seen one
| describes it as a sort of box or cradle of
mahogany, with n high back nnd low
t sides. It is covered with Hindu rugs,
and lias two large, soft pillows worked
in rich, Turkish embroideiy. At eneli
| corner tho clniir is supported by ropes
j which depend from tho roof, and which
| run through hollow pieces of mahogany,
i making the supports seem like slender
and flexible wooden columns. “In the
Parsec chair,” it seems, “a lady may
lounge mid swing in the most pieturesqu*
of attitudes, without suffering that cur
vature of the spine which the hammock
entails.”
A Long Sleep.
