•Hpi ■P" THE RIVAL LOVERS. ßfcqry "óf a Thrilling Avventuro on a House-Top, i i ■*< A Fw J if The center of tho main roof of the Ocean Ilouso is cupped by an octago nal cupola or lantern. Insldu it is a large room, with eight windows ex tending from floor to ceiling. You ac company the car of the elevator as far as it goes in its upward journey, and then there are several precipitous flights of stairs to be climbed. Once up, and you are well repaid for your trouble by the glorious outlook over land and sea. Ail Newport lies at yo ir f- - I. In old times the cupola was a favor ite resort for newly-married coupl s. They used to get themselves out of breath scaling tho Stoep s airs, and then they would sit by the windows gazing forth, mooning and spooning by the hour. 'The other evening a trip was made i tho cupola to ascertain if possible whereab >uts of tho becalmed nhls that were sailing or drifting for ¡/(Citizens’ cup. The octagonal room As deserted save by the presence of a middle-aged man of powerful propor tions, who sat in a cane-ehalr gazing toward the sea, occasionally refresh ing his visual powers by a peek through «a binocular glass. Conversa tion aroso over the probabilities of the termination of tlio race, and one topic led to another until tho stranger ob served: “This is my first visit to Newport in many years. I came here to the cupola ns soon after my arrival as possible, for tho place possesses a strange inter est to mo.” There is nothing wildly fascinating about the bare, plastered, cobwebby octagon, and the speaker’s manner implied that the varied landscape did not attract him. Ho was, therefore, asked what was the particular attrac tion that gave rise to his desire for an immediate visit. “I saw something up hero that would make your hair stand,” he replied. “It was my first visit to the town, and I passed several weeks at this hotel. I found out the cupola, and I enjoyed climbing up—there wat no elevator then—to look off into tho moonlight while I smoked. •One night I had an adventure which I will never forget. Neither would you if you had taken part in it. Do you see that ladder?” he exclaimed, pointing to an unpainted stair to a trap-door in the roof used to reach tho halyards of the flagstaff on tho top of the cupola. “Well, so mething pos sessed me to climb up there and look off the top of tho lantern. The night was close and sultry, and all of those windows were open, with nothing to prevent any one from walking directly out unless they had a care. Observe what a descent there is! The long, Btcep roof has nothing on it to prevent one from sliding with terrible speed to the edge, and then the fall to the earth would be at least eighty feet. “I went up to the trap-door and foil id it fastened. Returning slowly jown the ladder, and pausing when down a liltlo way to take a few whiffs of my cigar, I saw some:king in white coming up the flight of stairs leading to the cupol.a from tho attic story be low. The time was past midnight. Mid the moon iv.as obscured by clouds, so that every thing was indistinct, but [ was enabled to determine that the white object was a woman, a id that I bad often seen her face about the house during my stay. Siie moved noiseless ly along and approached one of the open windows and stood leaning her bead against the frame on the side. “I felt myself in an awkward posi tion. I did not like Io make a noise for fear I might startle the young lady, and the thought flashed across my mind that she would be terribly frightened and, perhaps, fall out of tho window. So I concluded to keep quiet until she moved away from the danger ous spot before speaking to apprise hor of my presence and going down, leav ing her in full possession of the cupola. She was in full evening dress of white muslin, or something of the kind, and there wore some« disarranged flowers in her light hair, She 1 was ex- tremely delicate, of the I pale blonde type with little a red spot on either cheek, but she had been very gay during her stay at the n ?.<th® ^ncn about the houso called hep the pre the sea 8,|n. There wore twxl young men in c >nsiant attendance on h!k One was from the South somewhere and the Fain in circulation was ;h i he was engaged to her. Tho other nicer ew like an honorable fellow through it all—endeavored to sooth her and per suaded her to go down to the lower regions, but she grew hysterical and he could do nothing with her. “ ‘I saw you gc up the stairs as I was going to my room,' he said. *1 could not understand why you went up toward the cupola, and I followed you. Thank God, I did, Come below, Clara. Do come.’ “She answered hi in by a nervous sort of laugh. In another instant there was the sound of some one rushing up the ladder, and the other admirer, his face furious with passion, sprang into the cupola, lie shouted out: “‘Miss ------ ■, all is over between you and me. Any girl who will moot a man in this place at this time of night can’t 1x3 my wife. As for you. air, you must settle with me for your conduct.’ Then he jumped on the other fellow like a liger. I could tell by his utter ance that ho was full of champagne and that he was crazed with jealousy. “The fury of that onset nearly threw the attacked party to the floor, but he struggled in self-defense, and the two were locked in a moment in a sort of catch-as-catch-can embrace. The girl was dazed at first, and then she gave a little cry and sank on the floor in a dead faint. The young men. who were too much engaged to notice me, charged and floundered about the cupola like two dogs in a fight. It was rough and tumble, hit and gouge on the part of the assailant, and resist as best he might on the part of the other. The two got on their feet, when a sudden idea seemed to seize the fiiriousyoung man, who was frantic with excite ment. Getting a fresh hold, he dragged his rival toward the open window which looks down on that steep roof of the *L’ there. “ ‘Out you go!’ ho said, as ho panted from the violence of his exertion. “Neither one of the pair was what you would call powerful. The fellow who was assailed, especially, was like many other city young men of the time; he was better fitted for a waltz than such a contest The other was clearly stronger, and his rage made him overwhelmingly so. Quicker than I am telling you of what they did. he had jerked the weaker one to the win dow. “ *Oiit you go!’ ha again exclaimed. The other one, who was pretty well winded, grasped the side cf the win dow casing there and held on, strug gling hard to prevent his grasp being torn away. But it was useless and in «*11)011101* moment ha would have gone out, to stop only when he reached’the ground of the back yard, away down there. “I had watched the whole affair with a strange fascination. I had kept quiet until the time bad come when 1 could do so no longer. I sat on that step up yonder. It is about eight or nine feet above the floor. , I gave a leap as I saw the hold of the young fellow give away. I landed with a crash on the boards at the foot of the ladder and seized the lunatic around the waist. The next thing he knew was that he was on the floor on the opposite side of the cupola. I am pret ty strong now but then I was able to have handled two or three such fel- lows. “As I stood over him I said: •If you stir I will throw you out!’ and I lien I turned to the other. He half leaned against the window, with one hand pressed over his heart “‘Pray take her up!’ was «all he could utter, so exhausted was he. “I picked up the girl, and, telling the crazy man that if he stirred from the spot from which he had picked himself up I would pound the life out of him, I motioned to the other one to go ahead and lifted the sleep-walker to the stairway. It was hard work to get her down, but we carried her to her friends. I saw the young man safely in his room. On the floor be neath I met the jealous lover. He was sobered by the shaking I gave him, and having had time to cool off real ized what he had endeavored to da He attempted to explain and to apolo gize, but I let him off by telling him that I would have him arrested if he did not get out of town in the morn ing. When I got to my room it was just two o’clock.” There was a long pause after the narrator ceased. Finally the question wits nsxed: “Wnat became 01 mein all? Dal the girl marry either one?” “I believe she was consumptive,” was th« response. “No; she died a year or so afterward.”— Newport Let ter, in N. Y. Ilerabi. A Canary's Four Notes. SUSSI ANTIAU FOOD. Cause of the Large Consumption of Fat Meats l>y Hartl.Working Men. I well I’cmcinlmr how the sensible ami thrifty New England people among whom my boyhood was spent used to talk about “hearty victuals,” and how prevalent wore the doetrinoarthat “a hard-working mail wants real hearty food,” “and that children ought to have hearty food, but not too hearty.” With these eminently orthodox tenets the science of nutrition in its newest developments is in fullest accord. B it there always used to be an unsatisfac tory vagueness about them. I never could make out exactly what were “hearty” foods, and in just what their heartiness consisted. It has since oc curred to mo that these words express one of the ideas which the unerring sense and instinct of man havo wrought out of his long experience, but have waited for zcdence to put into clear and definite form. The synonym with which our science defines this idea is energy. Hearty foods are those in which there is an abundanco of poten tial energy. The lumbermen in the Maine forests work intensely in the cold and snows of winter and in the icy water in the spring. To endure the severe labor and cold, they must havo food to yield a great deal of heat and strength. Beans and fat pork are staple articles of diet with them, and are used in very largo quantities. The beans supply protein to make up for the wear and tear of muscle, and they, and more especially the pork, are very rich in energy to be used for warmth and work. I can not vouch for the following, which has just struck my eye in a daily paper, but, if it is true, the workmen were sound in their physiology: “A lot of wood-ehoppers who worked for Mr. S------ in II------ - stopped work the other day, and sent a spokesman to their employer, who said that the men were satisfied with their wages and most other things, but did like ‘your fresh meat; that’s too fancy, andhain’t got strength into it. ’ Mr. S------ gave them salt pork three times a day, and peace at once resumed its sway.” The use of oily and fatty foods in arctic regions is explained by the great potential energy of fat, a pound of which is equal to over two pounds of protein or starch. I have been greatly surpr sed to see, on looking into the matter, how commonly and largely the fatter kinds of meat are used by men engaged in very hard labor. Mon in training for athletic contests, as oars men and foot-ball teams, eat large quantities of meat. I have often queried why so much fat beef is used, and especially why mutton is often recommended in preference to beef for training diet. Both the beef and the mutton are rich in protein, which makes muscle. Mutton lias the advan tage of containing more fat along with the protein, and hence more potential energy. Perhaps this is another case in which experience has led to practice, the roal grounds for which havo later boon explained by scientific research.— Prof. Atwater, in Century. HOW TO GRADE LOTS. The Ilamlsomest Surface Which a Resi dence Property ( an Present. The advantage in appearance which a house has that stands lip well above the level of the street or roadway, is now very generally understood, and consequently we find the foundation walls built higher than was customary some years ago. In order to increase the effect still more, it is now a very common practice in ordinary suburban lots to fill in soil sufficient to raise the surface a foot or two above the street, thus forming a terrace at the street line. We do not advise this practice for general adoption, but in some cases the peculiar circumstances make it desirable. Where the fall of the drainage is very slight, it is even nec essary; where the grade of a street is lowered, and the grounds have al ready been planted, there is usually no other course but to terrace at the time. But a course that is necessary under the conditions named has boon meantnglossly copied in many instances where there was no occasion for it, and wo see the lots along the whole lines of streets piled up sometimes as much as three feet or more above the general level, even where it is necessary to build within a few feet of the line, thus requiring the entrance to the house to be by a flight of eight or ten steps. On larger grounds where are built villas or resi dences of much pretension in style and finish, and which occupy a suffi ciently elevated site, and at consider able distance from the street, this method of grading up the front and terracing at the lino is sometimes adopted, but the appearance is far less pleasing than an even grade over the whole surface; one effect is to shorten apparently the line of distance from the street to the house, and thus di minish the size of the grounds. A gentle and gradual rise from the street line to the front of the house is the handsomest surface a residence lot can present. — Vick's Magazine.
