ONE M AN’ S . 1 I I I 1 1 I ID O L (Original.] Manj years ago In Madrid there lived a grandee, Don Aoderigo de Sandoval. His bouse was on a little square, or rather court. In the center of which waa a fountain with a cup where an; one might quench bis thirst. Don ltoderlgo had married a girl very much younger than himself and set her up on a pedes tal as hla mother bad placed a crucifix ea bar dressing table, to worship. Si gnora de Sandoval while she at first found It pleasant to be thus adored, •specially since adoration brought with it every comfort, soon found It tire- gome. Her husband devoted but a brief time to her every day, the rest being given to affairs of state, he being one « f the king's cabinet. The rest of the time the young wife spent alone, and It did not occur ts the husband that the time would bang heavy on her hands or that she would crave aoclety, espe cially of the opposite sex. Did she not have servants at her beck and call, the finest apparel to wear, the most savory dishes upon her table? What moro could any woman need? One Dlght when Don Roderlgo was re turning from the palace where he had been In conference with the king. Jnst before entering the court In which be lived he stopped short and fastened bis eyes on a scene before him. A young man stood st the fountsln bolding the cu;> In his hand and looking up at the balcony projecting from the second floor of Don Roderlgo'« bouse. Just within s window opening on to the bal cony fluttered a handkerchief, while tbs young man waa making signs with the cup. His back was toward De San doval. so that be could not be recog nixed. The husband watched thla pantomime In a sort of stupor. He could not have been more thunderstruck had be aeen an angel from heaven alight on the fountain and pour mud upon the wa ters. That the being be had worshiped could thus dishonor him filled him with agony. While be looked be saw a fan wared frantically from within the win dow «n<i the man drinking at tbo foun tain dropped the cup and walked rap idly away. Don Roderlgo. awakening from hla stupor, followed, but the stranger bad only a short distance to go to turn a corner, and by the time Sandoval reached It the man he sought waa nowhere to be seen. Doc hH -rlgo wont to hie bouse, fclsood his «rife (she noticed that hla Itpa wars coM as Ice), and went to bed. He did ant a e-cnee her nor aak the name of the young men who had been making aigns at her window. From that time hla manner toward her waa changed, though oo on# except be reelf noticed It She woe allowed the same privileges, enjoyed the mm# comfort», hot s o m e h o w she felt that ahe lived In the shadow of death. 1 I .|'1"1"|, I I-n - H -I-H --i-H - l-l-l-I.I- l-.M-l- M-M --l JL few weeks after the episode that had such a marked effect upon Ro- derlgo he was coming horns late at night when he saw a man drinking at the fountain. Advlnclng, he knocked the cup from the stranger's hand. The man turned, hot at the Insult and see ing one worthy of hla steel drew his rapier and attacked the lnsulter. San doval drew and defended himself, cast ing from time to time an eye on hla wife's window. All was dark there, and In time be called a halt In the fight apologized for the Insult, refilled the cup and offered It to the stranger. The latter, puzzled, drank and went away. After that on numerous occasions— always at the dead of night—some stranger stopping to quench his thirst at the fountain would report In the morning that the cup had been knocked from his hand and. sometimes after a fight, the lnsulter had apologized and proffered a full cup. The police seemed singularly apathetic about the matter, not even taking pains to watch the fountain. Thus It became the belief that the person who gave these Insults was high In favor of the government. One night a man entered the square and, seeing another at the fountain, withdrew under the shadow of a flight of steps While the man at the foun tain was drinking a third figure ap proached and knocked the cap out of the drinker's band. “What means this Insult?" asked the man attacked. At that moment a glimmer of white appeared on the balcony of Don Bo- dertgo’s house. Roderlgo saw It In an Instant. "It means that I bare at last found the man I have been so long looking for." said Roderlgo. His rapier flashed, but before the man for whom It waa Intended bad turned to draw hla own weapon a third man shot from a shadow and stood, sword In band, lietween the two. “ Tou are mistaken, stgnor.'' ha said. ‘T am the man you have been looking for. I waa a lover of your wlfs'a be fore you married her. Thrice I have passed a few words, or rather signals with her from this fountain, but I have never been nearer. She Is pnre as marble. Go and continue the wor ship which till you found me here yon bestowed upon her, for she la worthy of It" The reply to this was a lunge on the part of Don Roderlgo and a shriek from the balcony. The stranger caught the blade on bis own steel and replied In kind. In a few minutes Don Roderlgo de Sandoval lay stretched upon the pavement “ Tou made tn Idol of your wife,” said the stranger, sbeatblng bta ra pier. "I bare made a widow of her." A year later Signora ds Sandoval married the man who made her a widow and became one of the most attractive of all the dames of the capi tal.
