AT THE,
TWENTY-FOURTH
HOUR.
When Cardinal Montalto became Six
I'm . ho speedily threw off tho disguise
which had enveloped his former life and
made the astounded conclave know that
la Placo ot a docile Instrument they hnd
elected an iliilexilile master.
It had been the custom ot nobles com
ing to Itnmo to bo escorted whenever
jhey went out by a "following" more
like an army than an escort, and it frc
qucinly happened that when two such
parties met in a narrow street a violent
struggle for precedence would tnko placo
and blood be freely shed.
Sistus V resolved to put down this
practice nnd sent an official uotlco pro
hibiting every noble without exception
from being followed by more thlin 20 at
tendants. Kvery one, nlso, of whatever
degree who should carry any sort of
art-arms (pocket pistols being especially
mentioned) should thereby Incur tho pen
alty of death.
Just alter the promulgation of tho
pope's orders ltiinuceio 1'arncse, the only
son of the Duke of Parma, arrived in
Home. On the evening after his arrival
he was invited by Prince Cesnrinn to a
magnificent banquet. Wine flowed free
ly, and the night waxed lato when tho
gay guests began to discuss the edict of
his holiness. Several wild young spirits,
and among them Itanuceio, declared
themselves ready to brnvu it openly.
Next morning Itanuceio alouo felt a
strong desire to try conclusions with tho
pope.
Itanuceio, in short, went to the Vati
can and nsked an audienco ot his holi
ness. It was immediately granted, and
the prince, after having, according to
custom, kuelt three times, managed
adroitly to let fall at the very feet of
Sistus a pair of pistols loaded to tho
muzzle.
Without a moment's hesitation tho
pope summoned his guards aud ordered
them to arrest and convey to Fort St.
Angelo tho son of thu Duke of Pnrma,
who had just condemned himself to
death.
Tho news spread rapidly. Cardinal
Farneso hastened to the Vatican nnd,
fulling at tho feet of the pope, with tears
in his eyes, pleaded his nephew's cause.
The pope's reply was cruelly decisive.
"The law," he snid, "makes no distinc
tion. A criminal is a criminal aud noth
ing more. Nor dare I exercise clemency,
which would be nothing but weakness."
The governor of the cnstlo received no
tice that Itanuceio should be executed
precisely at 2-4 o'clock (in Italy the hours
are reckoned fronbl to 24, commencing at
sunset). Angeli, the governor, signilied to
Itanuceio that he had but two hours to
live.
Tho announcement of his doom was
greeted with laughter by the reckless pris
oner, as he could not think tliut tho pope
would strike off n head that was almost
crowned. Hut who can describe his dis
may when his room was entered by n
monk, who camo to administer tho last
rites of the church, followed by the exe
cutioner, asking for his last orders!
Meanwhile Cardinal ramose was not
idle, lie consulted with his friend, Count
Olivares, tho Spanish embassador, aud
they resolved to obtain by stratagem
what had been refused to their prayers.
"Our only plan," said tho cardinal, "is
to stop all tho clocks In Home. Menn
whilo do you occupy Angeli's attention."
His eminence possessed grent hillucnce
in the city, nnd nt tho appointed hour
Timo changed his noisy courso ns if by
magic into a silent flight. Two clocks
those of St. Peter and St. Angelo wero
put back 20 minutes, their proximity to
the prison requiring this chaugc.
The execution was to bo in private,
but Olivares, as embassador, was per
mitted to remain with tho governor. A
single glance showed him that tho clock
was going right that is to say, that it
was quite wrong.
Olivares, in order to gain time, began
to converse on eve: i... .l-.iublo sub
ject, but the governor would not listen.
"My orders," ho said, "are impera
tive. At the first stroke ot the clock all
will be over." Ue called, "Is all pre
pared?" All was prepared. The attendants,
like their mnster, were only awaiting
the hour.
" 'Tis strnnge," muttered tlio govern
or, "I should have thought"
"At lenst, If you will not delay, do not
anticipate," interrupted Olivares.
Despite the delay, It wanted only ten
minutes to the fatal hour.
Menuwhilc the cnrdinnl repaired to the
pope. As he entered, Sixtus drew out
his watch. On the testimony of that un
erring timepiece, Itanuceio was already
executed.
, "What seek you?" asked the pope.
"Tho body of my nephew, that I may
convey it to Parma."
Sixtus traced the following words,
"We order our governor to deliver to
his eminence the body of Itanuceio Far
nese." Tho cardinal rushed toward the cnstlo,
and just in time. His nephew had his
neck bared, his hands tjed, and ho was
repeating what seemed his last prayer.
"A pardon, a pardon!" shouted Oli
vares. The executioner began to unlooso his
victim, when a sign from Angeli made
him pause.
"The body of Itanuceio Farneso," the
governor read nnd reread. "Why theso
wordB, 'the body of?' "
"Is that all' said the cardinal, at that
perilous moment looking paler than his
nephew. '"Look at the clock; it still
wants two minutes to the time, nnd I
received that paper a quarter of an hour
since."
The governor boned; the argument
was Irresistible. Itanuceio was given to
his deliverers. A carriage with four
fleet horses wnlted outside the prison,
nnd in n few moments the cnrdinal and
tho young priuco were galloping on the
rond to Parmn.
Just then tho clocks of Itomo pealed
forth in unison. London News.

It was lute in Dot-ember and 100 de

fowls crowded together in the old heii
housr, nnd if a glint of sunlight idiot

self until his hackles '.ookt-d like an KHz
alethau rulT; when he crmved, it funded
raucous and cold, and the hens shook
their heada at each eruw, as hens have
ilune since time begun. They stood on
uIutuiUo feet and seemed to envy Mrs.
Sims bur eoarsu shoes.
She, poor woman, was on her way out
to the barn to milk 40 cows before sun
liRht should fail. The dull, flat, hopeless,
dreary, dismal, bitter, sour, doleful, hard,
inevitable, disheartening condition of life
on a tlarhmd county farm was imaged
in the bleak landscape and in her weury,
haggard face.
She walked as if she had several cob
Mrstones in the toes of each shoe, and
slit; wished that she had a millstone about
her neek. Jim, her husband, was drunk
again, which meant that until bo returned
fiom town she must sack 1,000 bushels
of buckwheat a day, feed aud water 700
stupid fowls aud provide meals for seven
pairs of vicious, quarrelsome twins of her
own ruii-ing.
She entered the low doorway of the
hideous barn aud seated herself on her
haunches beside the lirst of the 40 serag

rienced milker, but Hie deftest lingers in

Something like an oath issued from be
tween her thin, bloodless lips, and she
audibly wished that the day that saw her
birth might be blotted from the calendar.
In the house she could hear the seven
pairs of twins shooting at each other
and throwing kerosene lamps about ami
slaughtering the cat; but she did not care
a bit. Time had been when pretty Eli .a
Simms would have eared a good deal,
hut that was a score of years ago, befovo
the twins began to come so frequently.
"If the house burns up 1 won't have no
more meals to get."
l'oor woman, she did not realize that
another bouse would take its place nnd
tho eternal round of ill cooked, greasy,
uninteresting, indigestible meals would
continue as before. She had lost the fac
ulty of thinking, like all fanners' wives
in (nrlaud county.
A couple of odd twins came out to her
Iluck, one of the oldest pair, and Jen,
next to the youngest.
"Jake has set the house atire ngain,"
said Iiuck.
lie would have kissed her if he had
been some sous and she some mothers,
hut the very name was unknown in the
Simms family. A kick and a cuss they
knew too well, but (he union of the two
sounds meant nothing.
"Hello has killed the eat again, nnd
Luce has torn your weddin sttfkit to
smithereens," said Jen, with a malicious
grin.
A grim smile sank into the tough, leath
ery face of the despondent toiler, and
she milked two vicious streams into the
girl's eye. Jon did not know whether to
laugh or cry, but the crackling of tho
flames turned the thoughts of all three In
to another direction.
"Ain't yeh go'n tor put out the fierrr?
The insurance ran out last week. I heered
pap say so."
Mrs. Simms rose to her foot. It was
true. She must save the house if it took
the rest of the milk.
"It'a n wonder your pa can't stay to
hum when tho house is liable to burn
down any day with them youngest
twins."
It was the third time in tp weeks that
they bad set the place alire, and milk was
high that year. Of course the pumps
wero frozen hard.
"You bring n couple of pails apiece,"
snid she, taking a pail in each hand and
balancing another on her head, but tho
children only jeered at her and began to
fight in tho hay.
She toiled toward the house, over
weighted and cold. Tho flames wero
pouring out of every window, and tho
sun was just setting, a rod hall that
looked as if tho dwellers beyond the
patch of pines on the horizon could warm
their hands on its glowing surface.
The squawks and squeaks of the fowls,
fighting for the warmest place on the
roost, broke the frosty stillness of the
nir, and the dull, black smoke of the
burning bouse floated in long, trailing
streamers to where the upland was
crowned with an orchard of young poach
trees. It was all beautiful if she had
but known, but this sordid woman was
bent only on putting out the miserable
fire that bad attacked the house.

BY TINA NICKERSON. 1
Aunt Eliza Barton walked from win
dow to window and gazed upon the sur
rounding scenery. Aunt Eliza yearned
for the kind husband who had suddenly
.been taken from her. Hers had been a
life of peace and plenty, but now had
come tho hardest of all blows in her de
clining years.
lean ago, when her only child died.
she took her brother's two llttlo girls to
live with her, and for lo years she and
her husband had taken the places of their
dead parents.
After Ihomas Is art on s death It was
found that there was llttlo more than the
grand old housi left to the widow, and
she, whoso Prat thought had always been
for others, was now grieving not only for
tho dead, but because she web no longer
able to provido in tho old way for her
two nieces.
lies C Gardiner sat in an easy chair.
regarding her aunt with an unsympathet
ic look, when Iteth came in.
Well, auntie, how do you think I
look?" she asked, gayly turning from side
to side as if to invito criticism.
"Very nice. But what does it all
mean?" asked Aunt Eliza.
"Can't you guess, dear? Look at this
dress nnd apron, this largo shade hat and
this nice, bright, Bhtnlng pall. I'm going
to pick cranberries. Come, licsslo, are
you coining?"
"Beth Gardiner! A hnt do you mean?
How dare you think of Buch a thing?
Pick cranberries indeed! You shall not
disgrace us in this way. You know that
Gerard Dayton Is to call this afternoon!"
cried her sister angrily.
Well, 1 suppose you caa entertntn
him," snid Beth. Theu, going to her
aunt, she threw her arm around her neck
aud said earnestly:
Dear aunt, do you think I am Insensi
ble to all your goodness? You havo been
a mother to us since our own mother died,
nnd we never can half repay you. I re
alize that you arc no louger In a position
to do as you have done, and we must take
our turn now. Eroni this time, dearie,
you nre my special charge, and just as I
would take care of my own dear mother
will 1 gladly care for you."
Aunt Eliza was deeply affected and. re
turning Beth 'a caresses, replied:
"God bless you, my darling!
BesBie regarded her sister scornfully
and asked:
"And, pray, do you intend to support
the family by picking cranberries?"
' No, dear, quietly replied Beth, I
have engaged to teach the village Bchool
at a salary of $450 a year. Not a largo
sum, I know, but it will keep the wolf
from the door, auntie, nnd it may be the
beginning of better things. It was my
secret, and I have divulged it sooner than
I intended. But 1 must make hnste, or
I shall earn no dimes today. Goodbyl
Better come, Bessie. Wait till you seo
my wealth rolling in. My, but you'll be
envious!" And, gayly kissing her hand
to them both, sho tripped lightly down
tho path and was soon lost to view.
When she returned from her work late
in the afternoon, Bessie was seated on
the lawn, with Gerard Dayton at her
feet. How cool and comfortable she look
ed and what a contrast to her own ap
pearance! Yet at the sight of her bright.
rosy face Gerard Dayton s countenance
lighted up with unmistakable pleasure.
Bessie noted this nnd in n voice wnlcn
plainly showed her disposition said:
UcrQ is our rustic maiden now. Mr.
Dayton, what think you of Beth in her
new sphere?"
But Beth gave him no chance to reply.
She burst forth with:
Oh. it was great fun! Why, tho little
things never looked so pretty aB when 1
saw them growing. It seemed almost a
shame to rob the slender little vines of
their adornment, but the enthusiasm of
tho 'pickers' is infectious, and I soon
found myself 'scooping 'cm In with an
eagerness bordering on greediness. And
sec, here are the checks which I received
for my labor 42. That number repre
sents tfi.'JO. Of course I hnd help. I
didn't pick half of them," she said laugh
ingly, "but it is very gratifying to my
vanity, I suppose you would call lt.
I am sure. Miss lieui, that you arc to
be congratulated upon" began young
Dayton.
'But look, ske Interrupted him. ' bee
these poor hands. Thoso fingers have
actually been bleeding." And she held
up two very much begrimed hands for
their inspection.
They could not help laughing nt Her
pitying glances, and Bessie said, "What
ever possessed you to branch off in this
most extraordinary manner I cannot con
ceive." v
"I must run and tell auntie. My, but
I dread to put my hands in water as
would a street urchin!"
This experience will end your cran
berry expeditions, 1 hope," said Bessie.
"By no means," answered Beth. "I
am going tomorrow and next day and
the next, and sho went to the houso
singing hnppily.
Tho next dny Bessie waited in vaiu for
the young lawyer, and nil her bitter Jeal
ousy was aroused when she suw him
walking home with Beth, swinging the
cranberry pail as she went. They were
enjoying tho walk, too, for ho was
laughing heartily at some bright remark
of Beth' s. Try as she would she could
never make him laugh like that.
"Well, Miss Bessie," he said as they
came up to her, "I, too, have been pick
ing cranberries, aud 1 must confess my
self a convert to your sister's views."
"And are you, too, rejoicing in a pock
ietful of chocks with which to swell your
Income?" she asked, with some sarcasm.
"Oh. no." he replied in an unruffled
manner. "I fear that I am much too
awkward to meet with anv such success,
but It really is capitnl fun.
Beth was a success at teaching, and
Mrs. Barton was justly proud of her lov
able niece.
Bessie was quick to see that her
charms wore lost upon Gerard Dayton
and accepted Geoi'ge Dennis, n wealthy
young merchant, who loved the Imperious
beauty almost to tiistrnction.

had just started to call the railroad
boys, aud together they' passed the
stores and even shook tbe doors, but
unfortunately did not notice the shat
