M It was certainly rather rough on ? the Rev. Reginald Eisgc.od thai by an ! act of the puiest rood nature he j should have been led in.o so awkward j a complication. The Rev. Reginald had recently accepted the post of carate at St. Matthew's church, Tootham, under the Rev. Jeremy Priggleswade, vicar of that parish, end a typical specimen of conventional piety and smug social rectitude. The vicar of St. Matthew's expected to get to heaven by this means. Incidentally, he also expected a more immediate reward. The very desirable living of St. Peter s. Tcotham, the mother parish of the town, had just fallen vacant by the resignation of the rector. The vicar ol' St. Mat\ " " ----- 1 ~ ~ IaaVA/1 -irvnvi thew S n2 Q. ill IdC1.,, luuncu | himself as the future rector of Tootham. and he lost no time in forwarding to the patron an application for the vacant living, accompanied by a sheaf of testimonials. , Mr. Jenkins, the patron of the living, although given up to see!:! life in London, had always shown a laudable disposition to fall in with the wishes of the parishioners. At the time when his new curate, Mr. Bisgood, arrived Mr. Priggieswade was still awaiting the answer to his application. The new curate was strolling one morning down one cf the residential streets in the town when he saw a very small boy making heroic but vain attempts to. reach the big brass handle of a front door bell. "Hallo, my little fellow! Can't reach it, eh? Yvell, let me ring the bell for you." And he gave the handle a mighty tug, which set the bell clanging loud i ly. A smile of huge gratification expand- j ed the chubby face of the graceless j urchin.^ "Now, we must cut and run," ' he lisped. And he was off. leaving the astonished cure alone upon the doorstep. "I?I?ahem! Dees?does?Mrs.? Mrs. Robinson live here?" he stam- j mered, mentioning the first name that j o2me into his head, as the best way j out of the embarrassing situation. But, to his amazement and dismay, the i maid answered: I "Yes, sir. Will you please walk in, j . sir." The curate stammered out his name: some plausible explanation of his visit If the house had been in St. Matthew's parish", he might have pretended that he had called in the ordinary course of his professional ministrations. But the house was in the parish of St. Peter's. The lady was youngish, and decidedly pretty and attractive, though somewhat over-dressed. "Mrs. Robinson?" be murmured, awkwardly. She smiled and nodded. "I'm the?the?new curate," he began." and I thought that as I was passing?" "Quite so. Pray be seated," interposed the lady. "Very kind of you to caii, I'm sure. Do you know. I've been here three months, and you are the first clergyman who has been to see me?" At this the Rev. Reginald expressed much surprise. He felt it, too. A rather susceptible young man himself, he should certainly not have neglected to call, with proper frequency, on so fair a parishioner, and he wondered why the other clergy had been so backward. "I don't know how it is," continued Mrs. Robinson, candidly, "but I'm afraid I can't be exactly persona grata in Tootham. Everybody seems to fight shy of me. I'm not aware of having done anything to 'offend the worthy denizens of this highly respectable place. But such is the fact. I seem to be regarded as a sort of social leper. However, we won't talk about that. Let's talk about something pleasanter and more interesting." And she at cnce led the conversation into impersonal channels. Sne was a good talker and a very pretty - 1.1 I woman, ami the ?ev. ne^usm n-u:u i her society so agreeable that he prolonged his visit for more than an hour. Now. as it happened, his visit to Mrs. Robinson had not escaped the lynx-eyes of a highly respectable maiden lady who lived just over the way. This was Miss Letitia Partlett. a veritable dragon of propriety and self-constituted guardian of the morals of . Tootham. Before the day was out she flew round to St. Matthew's vicarage, where she had a Inog private interview. When the curate went next morning for his day's instructions, he 'was greeted by his superior in the sternest and most frigid of tones. "Come in here, if you please, Mr. Bisgood," said the vicar, leading the way to his study. "I have something very unpleasant to discuss with you." The curate wondered. "Be good enough to explain to me," demanded the vicar, "how it ks that 4 HO FiGHTS ALCN'E. ^Bg Ah. hitfr enough th* combat is, With cvry help ai. hand.

Y.'hat on earth do you mean? j To whom are you referring?" cried the curate, in astonishment and indignation. "Don't pretend ignorance, sir. You know very well," retorted the vicar, witneringly. "Whom should I mean j but that abandoned creature v.-ho calls | herself Mrs. Robinson?a woman j whose name is a by-word in the town, j and whose house no self-respecting person would be seen to enter?much less a minister cf the gosysl. like yourself?" The curate iccKeu maca iciAtn j alack. Mrs. Robinson a bad character? Impossible! That she was vivacious had been obvious enough to him during their hour's agreeable tete-atete. But that there was anything seriously amiss with her he couid scarcely believe. "I did happen to go and see a Mrs. Robinson yesterday, under rather peculiar circumstances?" he answered. "Very peculiar, I have no coubt." interposed the vicar, with biting sir- j casm. "My callng upon her, however, was the purest of accidents?" "Ch! of course," said the vicar, more and more sarcastic. "I beg you will do me the justice of hearing me out," rejoined the curate, his color rising. And he told the vicar the exact circumstances. The vicar listened with offensive incredulity. "A very pretty and ingenious sto v. Mr. Bisgcod. I really don't } knew which to commend the more? j your ingenuity in concocting it, c-r i your effrontery in telling it." "Do you mean to say you don't believe me?" demanded the curate, beginning to grove hated. The vicar laughed. "I wasn't born yesterday," he sail "and even of I had teen, I should still have thought your story rather thin?especially your hitting on the v/oman's name accidentally, without, any previous knowledge of her." "Robinson is a common enough j name. And, likely, or net. it is precisely what happened," Answered the curate. Again the vicar laughed his scoffing laugh. "YOU musi nave nearu ui su notorious a person," he said. "A woman who is constantly visited on Sundays by flashy acquaintances?mostly men?in motor cars, and who entertains them in the small hours with music and feasting and reveling. Why, sir, the goings on are the talk of the town. And you expect me to believe that you had never heard of her. No! no! Mr. Bisgood. Try that story on somebody a few years younger than I am." The curate was by this time in a white heat of passion.* "You're the first man who has ever dared to call me a liar; and I've a good mind to thrash you for the insult. you?you?smug Pharisee!" he cried, in a voice that trembled with rage. The vicar slipped hastily round to the other side of his study table. He was not a warrior, except linguistically. "You are not improving your position by insolence, Mr. Bisgood. Had you been penitent and contrite, I might have given you another chance. But the sooner you leave Tootham, the better." rrs\ + r\r\ <* *?." tVlO rilT 1 11 IVUUJ VJ^VUiUCVV* vv. ate. The pious vicar was so much upset that it was some days before he recovered his equanimity. However, au encouraging letter from the patron of the living of St. Peter's, which the vicar received cn the third day after the curate's departure, did much to soothe his ruffled feelings. The letter ran as follows: "Dear Sir?Your application for the living of Tootham has been sent on to me by Mr. Jenkins, the gentleman from whom I purchased the advowson some months ago. "Will you, if possible, call on me here the day after tomorrow?any time hpfwppn 9. sr>ri fi in the afternoon ?and we can then discuss the matter. I am. yours faithfully. "M. de Eracey. "1001 Eaton square, S. W., Jan. 15, 19?." The vicar lost no time in writing to say that he would, with pleasure, run up to London and see Mr. de Bracey, as requested. He saw himself already rector of Tootham. When he arrived next afternoon at 1001 Eaton square, he asked the butler whether Mr. de Bracey was at home. "Mrs. de Bracey, sir," the butler corrected him. "There is no Mr. de Bracey; my master has been dead some years. Yes, sir, the mistress is at home. She is expecting you, I Mr. Prigglcswade. is it not? ^^^Fyou walk in, please?" vicar started. He turned pale. ^ffthe prettv woman who s-tood con\ . fronting nnn_ne recognized that depravk^pe^ion, Mrs. Robinson. "I?I?came to see Mrs. de Bracey," he stammered. "And I am Mrs. de Bracey," she sir.iledr "Yon are surprised eh?? because you have known me in another name.

She paused. The vicar looked rather blank. Ke wished now that he had not been quite so hasty in his judgment of Mrs. "Robinson's" character. Further, he hoped with all his heart, that she had net heard of that little row he had had with his curate in connection with the letter's visit tc her house. The lady went on: "My rather Bohemian way of life appears to have shocked all the good people of Tcotham immensely; and I won't deny that when I saw that 1 took a malicious pleasure in even going out of my way to shock them further. Still, I hardly think that they?least of sll yen clergy, who are supposed to be especially endowed with the virtue cf Christian charityneed have jumped to the conclusion that I was a bad character," "Gh, I never thought that?" began the vicar, in obsequious depreciation. "No'" she ejaculated, with a slight lift of her shapely shoulders. "Then I wonder why you dismissed that nice curate cf yours for the iniquity of merely called to see me. "Oh, that was a mistake?an unfortunate mistake?" "A very unfortunate mistake, Mr. Priggleswade, as you are now to learn. Had ycu behaved differently, and as a minister of the gospel ought, I should probably have presented you to the bc-nefice. But, as is it, I have decided to present your late curate, the Rev.

Recall of Jap Ambassador at Washington Seems to Have Been Only a Politcal Bluff. I A Washington dispatch says: The formal announcement by Viscount I Hayashi, the Japanese minister for for eign affairs, in a Tokio dispatch, published Friday, that Ambassador Aoki is to be retained at Washington is regarded as clearly establishing the fact that the present Japanese ministry, headed by Saionji, has assured itself of the support of both the unionist and conservative parties in its present attitude toward America. For a. time there was some doubt in Washington, even in the minds of the officials of I the Japanese embassy, as to the power j behind the demand of Ccunt Okuma ! for the substitution for Aoki at Washj ington of a "strong" man, by which I term it was understood he meant a j Japanese committed in advance to the J policy of demanding tro$) America full | rights cf ciiize, p of residents and Aoki had read < early the impossibility of securing all 01 these rights at this time, because of the inability of the national government to dominat state administration. He reports to his own government to tha; effect with the plain intimation that it was advisable to seek, instead of the unlimited rights, only those that might reasonably be expected to be conceded at tbis time?an opportunist policy?at first caused a disagreeable impression in Japan. The successful outcome of the recent war with the natural infla ticn of Japanese pride, tended to make the ambassador's policy of doubtful popularity. I I: is quite certain that the Saionji ! ministry was fcr a time somewhat j taken aback at the ebullition of pcpuj lar indignation evidenced in the publiI cation in opposition in the newspapers in Japan, and it even Is surmised that there was a slight weakening and a disposition to make some concessions. But soon after the agitation had reached its height, the Japanese business interests began to feel j a very strong pressure from abroad, conveying a clear warning that a quarrel with America would leave Japan friendless and certainly would discourage the investment of foreign capital in Japan enterprises. With this favorable influence, fhe Saionji ministry found little difficulty in securing the adhesion of the two great parties in Japan to its policy, and the announcement made from Tokio, through the Associated Press representative to Ambassador Aoki's tenure is regarded as convincing evidence that Count Okuma's onslaught has failed and that the settled pol.cy of Japan from now on will be to discountenance "jingo" agitation as directed against America, and to endeavor to strengthen the friendly relations oetween uie rwo cuuiitnts.
