It seems strange that not until the
middle of last century did it occur to
any of the successor of Peter to rescue
from the desecration of indifference a
spot saturated, on may say without
hyperbola, with tbe blood of th mar
tyr. Everybody know that earthquake,
fire and inundation competed with
each other for its destruction. Guis-
card's troopers stalled themselves there,
and the Frauaipaui transformed it into
a fortress. When leas turbulent time
supervened, it became by taoit consent
the common quarry or toe more power
ful Roman houses. When for a time
friendly enough with each other, they
held tilt and tourney within it, and
then mystery plays restored for a time
its theatrical character. Sixtua V had a
scheme for turning it into a woolen
manufactory, and another prince of.
peace thought it would serve capitally
as a powder magazine. Meanwhile it
remained a ounvenient market place
for the sale of vegetable. But in 17B0
an earnest Lisurian monk, Leonardo da
Porto Manrisio, cam to Home, craved
audience of Benedict XIV, and obtain
ing papal sanotion for 'the new form of
devotion known a the Via Cruois, in
duced the sovereign pontiff to consecrate
the Coliseum to celebrate mas there and
to erect a large wooden cross in the very
center of the pagan arena.
Ever linos the stations of tbe cross,
commemorating th journey to Calvary,
have enoirolod the vast ellipse, and the
newcomer whose rising voices disturbed
my reverie ar wandering hither behind
a tall, barefooted, bareheaded Francis
can friar, to make the dolorous pilgrim
age. All the fine ladies of Borne are
there, and, heedless of delicate flouno
and furbejow, they kneel on the un
swept ground at every halt made by the
rosary girdled monk and bow their
heads in audible lamentation. Then,
when the long, sad servioe is completed,
be rebukes them for their transgressions
and invite them to a holier life. That
much I can make out from where I sit,

hortation reaches me, bnt in fitful vowel

close a blare of trumpet tell me that a

NEW YORK CANDY PEDDLERS.
Claetered la DUeTT Eat Sid Itnai. Thar
Sleep aa tha Floor.
Very nearly all the dark skinned men
who sell that brilliantly colored candy
from push carts are member of a regu
lar clan and for the most part Greek.
When the day haa ended and their work
la done, they gather together in a dozen
or more den in Roosevelt and Cherry
streets jost at the foot of the famous
Cherry hill, there to eat, rest and before
sleeping to load np their carta for tha
morrow, that they may get an early
start
One of these rendezvous present
unique appearance late at night. It ia
generally a store on the ground floor,
that the push cart may be trundled out
easily when heavily loaded. From the
aidewalk the "store" does not show a
ingle ray of light. It looks forbidding
and deserted. But its door open read!
The entire front of tbe long apart-
ment is filled up with carts laden with
the tweets and displaying sign. Only
a narrow passageway ia
left to get to
tbe back of tbe room.
Here, around a amudgy table, five or
aix chattering Greek are playing card
and Quarreling over the game. On the
boards is spread a quantity of candy,
newly made and cooling, for it is in a
room Daca OI mis ma ine stun is pro-
pared. The candy maker not only makes
a profit selling to tbe peddlers, but b
get still more of tbeir money, lodging
them on the same floor as their push
cart. Sometime when a peddler la
"broke' the maker of tweets end him
out with a load of candy to sell on
hare, but as a general thing be gets
cash for fail product before the cart go
out
Bed are, for the moat part, unknown
luxuries. Only the most proeperont ped
dlers seem to be able to afford them.
Generally the floor is marked out with
chalk lines, divided into narrow squares,
and there on the hard board, without
disrobing or changing an article of tbeir
clothing, the candy peddler sleep.

of her great husband. She absolutely
refused to return any social call.
Great was the row it stirred up and the
charges of affecting royal manner and
customs and of being rude and all the
rest rained about Mrs. Monroe' head.
But it was of no avail. She stuck
It out and each "first lady of the land"
haa followed her example since. So
great, however, was the disturbance
over Mrs. Monroe' refusal to return
calls that John Qulncy Adams con
sidered It necessary to draw up and
formally promulgate a formula of eti
quette which bas since regulated the
life of tbe Executive Mansion.
After the revolution James Monroe,
then only 23 year old, went to New
Tork aa a delegate in Congress from
Virginia. He was a handsome young
fellow with political and military suc
cess upon him In a marked degree and
a distinguished ancestry. There he met

The Worktngman'a Day.
Sunday la tbe worklngman'a daya
day for well-earned rest at home. At
the recent English Church Congress the
Sunday question was discussed, and
the strongest advocate of Its religious
observance was a worklngman. Saya
the New York Churchman:
With remarkable effect, he challenged
those speaker who had advocated a f
modified observance of the Sunday to ,
produce the worklngman wbo would j
defend the modern Inroads upon the
keeping of the Sunday as a day of rest. I
It ia worthy of notice that aa a rule
the son of toil Is In favor of the Ameri-;
can 8unday. Even when he I not a
church-goer, the ateady and sober work-
lngman finds bis chief recreation In the '
peaceful pleasures of the home.
He does not seek the riotous beer
garden, be doe not frequent the Sun
day concert ball, nor doe be care to
break in upon his Sunday rest by the
noise and turmoil of a railway ride. A
careful investigation of the manner In
which tbe worklngman prefers to spend
bis Sunday will prove that such is the
case.

Prfrilatxa ef Drawlaa; tw Aaa aad Klasj.
On of the tightest squeeses that I
nnt nnt nf. said the inveterate Pok-
ar player, was in New York during th
rise of the great moral wave that was
being felt in every gambling house in
th city. .
T i almnal a total stranmr in the
city, but the second night after my ar
rival I let the clerk of (he hotel know
that I wanted to find Some DlaOS WU6
there was a little game, not too steep,
in Droarresa. and after sialng me up for
a time be whispered a number in my
aar.
After sundry tappings and waitings I
passed through a series of halla and
room and was shown into a large gam
bling parlor that waa apparently doing
good business in spite of the reform
ers. '
I seated myself at a table where they
were playing "senator." Tbe gam la
nothing mora nor less than poker with
the exception that it is all jaokpota, and
a man can open tbe pot on any kiud of
a band he wishes instead of having to
see before him the traditional "jacks or
better." This scheme make the game
a much livelier one and mora attractive
to men who are good at bluffing.
There were six of us pluying. Tb
cards were dealt by a man employed by
tbe house, who dealt to every man In
turn. Any player had the privilege of
dealing for himself if he wished, and
this permission waa supposed to allay
all doubt a to the disinterestedness of
the dealer.
The game was comparatively new to
me, and a it is a confusing one to a
man who has been accustomed to si sing
up tbe man who opened the pot a sure
ty having some tort of hand I lost
ttesdily.
From several things I gathered that
the man at my right was "playing for
the house" that is, he waa supplied
with chip free and paid to the proprie
tor a certain per cent of hi winnings.
As tbe game is one of bluffing and a
man free from care and betting other
people's money can bluff better than a
man who sees his little pile steadily
diminishing, tb man who played for
the house very generally won.
When I came into the room I had with
me f 500, money that I had collected for
my employer, for I was out on a collect
ing tour. In one brief hour I was down
to f 100, and then oanie my first good
hand.
I had three big aoes pat. and I opened
tbe pot for a good sum. Tbe most of th
players at the table wbo bad noticed my
timid style of play at once dropped at
my exhibition of itreugth, and I began
to kick myself for giving my band away
aa The only man that staid was the
one who I believed was playing for th
house. -
He drew three cards, and I drew on
and bet t3S. Tbe other man looked at
my pile of chips and said, "How much
have yon on tbe table?"
I answered, " Fifty dollars. "
"Well, I will raise yon that $80,"
said he, with a laugh.
Of course I called, and ha laid down a
straight ace high, with tbe remark that
it was a pretty lucky draw to an ace and
king that be bad held up. I remarked
that it was a wonderfully lucky draw
and asked bow often be paid $25 for
chance to draw to an aoe and king.
Every one could see I was suspicious
of cheating when I rose from tbe table
and remarked that I bad had enough.
It was enough, for I didn't have anoth
er cent with me and little at the hotel.
I loitered about tbe different games
for awhile, for it is a great source of in
terest to a heavy loser to see other men
win and notice how easy they take it
While standing near tbe outer door I
took out my notebook to see what chance
I had of collecting enough to cover my
loss until I bad time to make it good. I
had hardly made a couple of figure
when I taw the man who had won tb
last pot from me get up from tbe table
in a hasty manner and address another
man, who was presiding at tbe wheel.
Thia man was the proprietor, and h
at once came over to me and in confi
dential tone inquired if I was a report
er. I saw my notebook bad given bim
the impression and answered in an as
sured sort of way, " Yea. "
"Well," said he, "how much is it
going to tako to make yon forget this?"
I didn't realize exactly what h
meant, but answered that it had taken
ffiOO to make me remember it He rush
