It was Sir William Colville of Col
ville Manor who first discovered Sl
gnor Albano. Sir William prided him
self on being the patron of struggling
genius and so gave him the commission
to perpetuate in marble the beauty of
his only daughter, the Lady Margaret.
The sculptor was a man of twenty
eight, with a fair face and an aristo
cratic bearing. There could be no
question that he was a real artist with
the chisel. Ilia enthusiasm promised
a masterpiece. It was arranged that
he should stay at the manor while his
work was in progress.
It proved a lengthy task, but the sit
tings were anything but tiresome to
the young lady. Signor Albano was
both well traveled and well read, and,
while he knew how to keep the mo-
mouts from drugging, he yet preserved
his attitude of deepest respect. Lady
Margaret looked upon him with rever
ence as a genius. Perhaps his youth
and good looks contributed somewhat
to her enjoyment in the sittings, but
tills pride forbade her to acknowledge.
The bust when finished was all that he
had promised. If either of the two
young people sighed that the long
mornings in the studio would be no
more, they gave no sign.
Three months afterward the father
and daughter were passengers on n
steamer for the orient. They had been
out three days before they discovered
that the sculptor was on board. He
explained that through the death of a
relative he had come into a fortune
and had set out on a tour around the
world. Sir William was rather cha
grined to find his protege so far beyond
the need of his help. While he con
gratulated him on his good fortune,
therefore, his manner yet conveyed the
fact that he did not consider that his
change in prospects entitled him to
treatment as an equal. Tho Lady Mar
garet was a most well brought up
young woman, and she unhesitatingly
followed her father's cue.
Two days later, as she sat alone on
deck, Signor Albano approached her
with the assurance of an old friend and
entered into conversation. In vain her
manner showed him that the old days
of happy intercourse must be forgot-
"DID YOU NOT KKCKIVE PAYMKNT IfJ FULL

ten. The Italian was Imperturbable.
When she rose to go. lie even dared to
lay a hand upon her arm as he said:
"Lady Margaret, I am here on this
steamer today because I knew you
were to sail on It. I am here to say
something to you, and you cannot go
until I have spoken."
The girl had snatched away her arm
and faced him proudly as she drawled
with slow insolence:
"Did you not receive payment in full
for your work?"
A look of such poignant suffering
crossed his mobile face that a flush of
shame rose to her own cheeks.
His voice was full of reproach as he
replied:
"Is It kind to taunt me with the fact
that I bad to sell my genius for shil
lings and pence? You were not so
when you were my model. You were
not only pleased with my work as nn
artist, but I fondly hoped that 1 had
found favor in your eyes ns n man."
Perhaps her heart responded to his
words, but only pride of race showed
I "w
in uer voice as she answered
hotly,
"Sir, have you lost your senses?" and
walked away like an injured queen.
Half an hour later the wrathy Sir
William hunted up the sculptor and
taid:
"Should you speak to my daughter
again while this voyage lasts I will ap
peal to the captain to have you locked
up In your stateroom."
"Sir William," replied Signor Albano
respectfully, but Imploringly, "do not
drive me to desperation."
But Sir William refused to listen.
For the next few days Lady Margaret
often felt his sad. Imploring eyes fixed
upon her, but ho did not again venture
to npproach her.
The fifth evening a note was deliver
ed at her door. Almost Immediately
following Siinior Albano made his ap
pearance in the smoking room. He car
ried n revolver in his hand. His face
was pale ami his eyes blazing.
"Gentleim n," he said to the dozen
loungers in the room, "I must trouble
yon to go out. In the next half hour I
may receive n note. If I do, all will be
well; If I do not, we will all go to the
bottom together at exactly 9 o'clock."
There was a hurried scuttling of the
smokers. The whole ship was soon In
commotion, discussing plans for his
capture. But he was armed and evi
dently mad and hence must be cajoled
rather than forced.
At quarter to 9 he called to the whis
pering group outside the saloon door:
"Gentlemen, we have fifteen minutes
left I warn every one not to hasten
the calamity by tampering with my
stateroom door. If you open that door,
you will explode thirty pounds of dy
namite at once."
There was something theatrical about
it all, and yet the menace in the Ital
ian's voice brought a shiver. The, cap
tain made a sign to the ship's carpen
ter, and they silently went below.
Avoiding the fatal door, the carpenter
feverishly began work on the room
partition. It seemed hours before be
had cut a hole large enough to allow
his body to slip through. Just clear of
the door was the signor's steamer
trunk. Two wires ran from the door
to the trunk, and from the interior
came a noise like the ticking of a
clock. When the wires had been cut,
the captain said:
"Softly, now. Up with the cover.
Ah! Here Is the clockwork, and a
handkerchief among the wheels does
the business."
At the same moment the report of a
revolver rang out. Up in i saloon
the clocli was pointing to 9. The mad
lover had pressed the weapon to his
temple, pulled the trigger and fallen
bfTck a corpse. The white faced pas
sengers waited tremblingly for anoth
er report, but instead they heard a wo
man's cry. The Lady Margaret had
fallen, fainting, in the doorway.
Was there dynamite in the" trunk?
Truly ninety pounds of it But for the
coolness of the captain 400 lives would
have been sacrificed to the disappoint
ment of a madman.
And did the Lady Margaret yield at
the last moment? That is the secret
locked in her own proud heart.
Onptimm of Dells.
Bells were solemnly baptized like
children, a custom which is still ex
tant iu the Roman church. This is
probably not a primitive practice aud
cannot be traced further back than the
reign of Charlemagne. It is first dis
tinctly mentioned in the time of Tope
John XIII. (OSS), when he gave his
own name to the great bell of the Lat
eran church. Sleidan gives nn account
of the ceremonial to be observed: "First
of all the bells must be so hung that
the bishop may be able to walk round
them. When he has chanted a few
psalms In a low voice, he mingles wa
ter and salt and consecrates them, dili
gently sprinkling the bell with the uilx
ture both Inside and out. Then he
wipes It clean and with holy oil de
scribes on it the figure of the cross,
praying the while that when the bell is
swung up and sounded faith and char
ity may abound among men, all the
snares of the devil hail, lightning,
winds, storms may be rendered vain
and all unseasonable weather be sof
tened. After he has wiped off that
cross of oil from the rim he forms sev
en other crosses on It, but only one of
them within. The bell is censed, more
psalms are sung and prayers are put
up for its welfare. After this feasts
and hanquetings are celebrated just as
at a wedding." Gentleman's Maga
