(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.

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. From being worshiped by one
man sne was worshiped by • whole
city.
