"Clo tell thy mistress, my butterfly, that when SllgC and holy men are in council" 1 begau bravely enough, when the arias parted behind the Stripling and a rose, Hung smartly, struck me on the mouth. Next cninc the Demoiselle Alys herself, carrying a great nosegay of her weapons, it be ing June and her birth month, she bole the seal of It on her cheeks and in her eyes, which were blue as pan sles, and clad In her gl'COH silk frock she seemed but n not her rose. For the Demoiselle' Alys was the merriest of ladies. When she was no longer than my bauble, I held her upon my knee, and 1 remember that she laughed long before she learned to speak, though she learned that early too. She burst out laughing now because We stated at her. "Bauble, salute!" cried she and Hung nil her roses at me. I went down on my knees to pick them up. and, Father Benolt chancing to smile at me, she turned on him. "Thou, too tonsure and coxcomb to gether:" And down he had to plump and help me remake the hunch. When It was complete, the Demoiselle Alys made us sit and stood before us. leaning ngainst tho chess table. See ing Father llenoll peering behind her to se- that she did not disarrange the ple< es, she swept them all Into a heap with her little band?all except (lie red king, which she held ami turned round and round under the thoughtful gaze Of her 1)1110 eves. ? "Was it thou, tool, who wast playing with the red-.'" "No," (Jtlotli I. " "1'wi i the holy man yonder. The innocent whites were mine ever" She tuition to Father Benolt. "Didst ever think upon the red king, father?" "Only when .' castle," replied the priest, wondering in the seriousness of her tone. "Or when he is sore pressed," she went on slowly. "But 'tis strange bow we choose our color and our king, not knowing If he bo stern stuff, to light Well, Or of the kind that cowers in a corner. Was the red king winning, fa ther?" "No; ho was losing confoundedly," I broke In, "and hndst thou not come chattering hither 1 would soon have hung another hull In my cap." She sighed and tucked the red king in the bosom of her frock. Then her fair little forehead cleared. "Now at tend, both of you," she commanded. "I come on an affair of of state. Be serious at once." We looked as serious as we could, looking .'it I.er. She smiled back at us. "Wit. ben tit y, holiness what n coun cil we make: We ought to contain great things." ? .mi we would wert thou down stairs again," said Father Benolt. She made n little tare at him. "Mgr. Motley," demanded she of me, "tell mo what Is the saddest thing in the WOl Id V" "An honest man looking in vain for his price," 1 replied. "foolish as over!" chirped tho De moiselle Alys. "The saddest thing in the world Is a friendless maiden." "What dost thou know of such?" asked Father Benolt. She sighed and laid the bunch of roses against her cheek, then held them OUt and looked nt them. "They are faded already." she mused nlotid. "'Tis Hu? same with every ono I gather. Lot It but lie a moment on my bscast, and It I* withered. Sometimes I think they hate mo." "But if the flowers are not thy friends," said Father Benolt, "still art thou not friendless. Forget not thy father and mother and thy Idnsmen." "Well, then, I have friends!" she pouted. "But I can never have aught that I desire." . "I never remember thy falling of thy wish," said Father Bonolt quietly. "Then thou bust forgot the day I was fi years old and the merchant came and opened Ids packs and I cried for the bine bends and wns not let to have them," "Trumpery things," snld the priest, "not Utting for a demoiselle." "But I did not ask to be born a de moiselle!" cried the Demoiselle Alys. "And 1 cried for them so!" "Well, what Is It now?" 1 cut In, be ing out of practice In alienee. "More blue bends or a puppet dressed In vel vet, or mnybap It is my bauble? It goes equally well with motley or petti coot*" "Porliaim," she said suuclly. "it is n new food I would like." Having MlUS VUlHJUlsUod mo, she , grow serious ami looked nt us with | strange eves, suit ami shining. Olid shook tier bond, thou dropped it. "Host wish me to shrive thee?"

Come, I will leach thee reterla lo take all the wind out of iby Cousin Isals'l's HUlls." "I eati make them for myself." she answered, then looked up with bright cned cheeks and eyes. "Dost know my bower woman. Rosalind?" she ask ed of l ather Roliolt. II" bowed as sent. "She Is in love, the foolish wench." This nine It was I who nod ded. "And she wishes lo he IIUUTlcd." concluded i he Demoiselle Alys gravely. "Well, it is right to s|.-ak in me of It," said father Ronoit. "I will rend the banns on Sunday Whom doth slu? w ish to marry':" our demoiselle looked lit us with steady eyes. "The Slelir ?I Vtldllly."

"Truly bower women are become ambitious since my day, and striplings more modest," said I. father lienoit pulled out his lower lip and said lioth lug. "1 suppose it is not a matter of the rack to marry above one's station!" Snapped tllO Demoiselle Alys. "No," 1 returned; "it is good to see an nrqucbusler with n line aim." for, as 1 said, Rosalind was a good girl. Our demoiselle Unshed scarlet, and tier blue eyes shone like angry stars. "Who dares say ill of the Slcur d'Au dillyV" "All fiance and the maidens'checks." said i. "But 1 like to see thee defend thy kinsman." "Ho is not my kinsman!" she cried. "His father's sister married the broth er of my uncle's wife. That Is not kin dred." "No? It is well, perhaps, since he is to marry thy bower woman!" She looked angrily at mo and drew In her breath hard, but did not answer mo. "Father," said she to tho priest, "thou wilt marry them, wilt thou notl 'That Is what 1 came to ask." "What!

In n minute she was oil her knees by bis side, his band in both of hers and her blue eyes and cooing voice bard at work, "father, thou art cruel!" (As if he would consent!) "And they so-so much in love! Thou hast not the heart to refuse, 1 know.

Oh, I Will pray every night for tins- to be made a bishop! And and promise me thou wilt marry them lids night I" We both started. "Of a truth," said J? "LVj. Rosalind Is not more hasty than u cat over the dairy sill." "Tonight," said father Benolt, to show how vain It was to try to corrupt him, "Is an utterly unsuitable, Impos SlblO time." "Ob. there, there!" cried he, Mushing very red. "I promise I promise to marry the dauphin to the kitchen maid and tliOO to the stable boy only get thee gone out of this (pilot place!

"I will go .straightway!" said the De moiselle \\yn, springing^, With danc ing eyes, snaking back her brown hair with a ripple of laughter. "Oh, but thou art a very dear! i will send thee a token tonight, and Ihou wilt find Rosalind waiting." "Am I to give nwny the bride?" J asked. "It will go hard If I may not attend the wedding of my very Child." She drew her brows together, but did not. answer me. '"Thou neodest not fear, father; there will lie horses wait ing, and the next day who will know if they hnve been married or not?" "Truly, n fine plan!" I could not help saying. "And?and she will be very grateful to thee, father, all her life and-and? that Is nil I came to say." The De moiselle Alys left us without another word, onreless of tho roses sbo had let fall beside tho chess table. Only, as I held back tho arras for her and un latched the door, she looked up nt me, not unkindly, but In silence. I watch ed her llttlo figure out of sight down the winding smlr beforo I eamo Into the room again, and then Father Jio nolt had gathered up all UlO Tlidilig roses ami imit 11m? 111 <?n Hic" table beside Ihr huddled chessmen. ?Shall WO liiilsll die game, falber?"

Put Hie hood was pushed Pack, and the taper's IhllilU lit up. clear and full, the cotnelj fea tures of Rosalind. My heart leaped up. and father Bo nolt drew a long breath. "Let me light thee, good fool," said Rosalind, taking tin? taper from my hand. I began a smart speech, out of my new learning, about a fair Psyche lighting ii sorry pair of antique Cupids, but nil confused because my heart was so light. Just as our hands met some one jostled mo from behind, and 1 stum bled against Itosnllml so awkwardly that my htlllble jingled sulkily under my cloak, and the girl, to save herself from falling, dropped the taper and started back. A fool was set on the light, and it went out. We were all In the dark (ill I groped for the chapel door ami Hung it open. Bven then the light was dim. and I could barely dis linguist) Rosalind's figure. She had meekly covered her bead with her hood on entering the elm pel. and she did no' Hing it Pack, although the Siour d'All dllly Stepped forth lo meet us. So straight ami tall and line a gnlhltlt he showed, even In the fa I II I light of the chapel, that I could not but wonder again, though 1 loved him not, why he should have stooped for wife to Rosa lind. Hut, then. J. heing but a fool, had no business with that or aught else that concerns other men, for n fool, look you, is but a caged fox, w ho pays for his scanty share of the ken nel's leavings by yelping strange praises of his trap.

A' inol, a' moll Malt, there:" The others had stopped short at the sound of his voice, hut it was out of sheer bewilderment. For one moment their shapes stood out clear and sharp In the moonlight; then they turned and began to run again, the girl between the other two. each with a hand in hers. Beclllg that they would not stay. I.oys, hurriedly adjusting his arque bus, tired upon them. Now. whether it was that his aim. being without a staff on which to rest his heavy nrque bus. was unsteady or whether he did >.his horrible Ihlug with full Intent. I do not know, hut (ho hall sped straight at the slender, inuHied woman shape between the two men. She Hung out her two hands and fell without a cry.

Hxclted us I was, I could not Und it. so l hud to strangle him with my hands, he gur gling horribly and Jerking out his arms vainly to reach his sword. Hut I am a wiry man, and it did not take long. II<> caught nt my arms once or twice; then 1 shook him off and went lo l a tlier Benolt, who knelt alone, bending over the girl's body. W ithout i word, but shivering like a man in an ague, be drew back her hood, and the moon light streamed full upon her face. It was the Demoiselle Alys. she was not quite dead, tier heart moved feebly, and her eyelids flutter ed, but there was a dark wet stain up on the broideries ol her uress Tttiorc the mantle fell hack, and it grew lar ger as we gazed. "Water!" said father Bciioit. I went to where. Just Inside the postern gate, played a little fountain with a cup ami a statue of Our Lady. I wrenched tin cup free, tilled It ami began to mutter prayers and curses, all mingled togeth er In my falling tears. The gute was open, and through it I saw a tlgUI'O BCllddlllg down the hill like a scared rabbit. It was the Slour d'Alldllly. S. we had married her to a craven and killed her into the bargain! The one deed balanced the other. The tears dried on my hot face as I hurried back with the brimming cup. The alarm of I.oys had wakened no one, and the court was as still as death ns we bathed her while face ami forced a little of the water between her lips. Down in the valley a horse neighed as It parted company with its fellow. In a moment she opened her ey es and said clearly, seeming to recall everything at once: "I am dying. Where is he?" leather Benolt'S fat face was work ing, and the tears chased each other down his round cheeks. He looked at me In an agony. It was no time to count words. I took her hand mid kissed It. "He Is ?lead, mndnmc." She never doubted me. A bright smile shone on her little face, and her slender limbs relaxed. I lifted her In my arms, and Father Benolt began the short absolution through his tears. Ah he lifted his hand she raised her head on my arm and looked straight up be tween us and beyond. She closed her eyes again, and we thought her dead, but she opened them once more nnd mulled upon us, Just ns she hud smiled over her roses that very day. "I hope you have not lost the red king," said she, quite In her old voice. "Voll are both '.o careless. Bill lost or found he Is .still the red king. Was it not a brave tokenV" Perhaps she wan dered, for nil nt once, before we knew, her blue eyes grew misty, her body be en me heavy In my nrms, nnd it was over. So died the Demoiselle Alys, who was the brightest, merriest lady ami whom I held on my knee before ever she wus so long as my bauble. Father Benolt rose, his wet face shining In the moonlight, and motioned me to follow him?we were both pnst speech?and I carried her back through the great door, ?long the passages of the great silent house, gropltlg our way, for we hud no light, and some times Stumbling in tin- darkness.

A NEW HOME FOR JONVICTS The State Prison and the Future Comtort of Prisoners. Columbia Stale The stone work on the new prison building at the State penitentiary will he completed this week and it will not be many days before this department of the Institution will be ready for OCCU panoy. Visitors are a little surprised when they behold the imposing nve story granite edifice with its castellated walls and para| ets?the abode of con victs. From a dis'anco this splendid piece of architecture looks pleasing and inviting. A murderer ilciig from his crime spent years in wandering the earth. He returned to Ids home and gave himself Up Front his story he was the louliest Hung in existence lie had uo nation no fatherland, no Stute no home, no friends, no Cod If this man had lived in South Carolina he might be without all these gracious Influences men loucd, and yet live In a bonny gray stouc castle the remainder Of his life. The lirst prison built on the grounds was a massive p rani to structure live stories high. Tins building was, how ever, only 20 bet wide with a heavy dead wall ruin ing through the centre dividing the cells in each of the stories Under this arrangement the entrances to the colls were on the sides of the building and iu order to ventilate the cells, doors were not used, but heavy iron gratings, rendering the inmates absolutely exposed to the winter's cold. Many a winter's night brought terror to the convict's heart when the wind bore icy blasts of rain and snow upon his unprotected bead. Kvcry one will be glad to learn that the day of this unintentional cruelty has passed forever. In I lie new build ing it is all different. The director have exercised the utmost care for the comfort and health < f the inmates in the arrangement and construction of the new prison. On the site w here the new building stands there was formerly a prison, built within a few years after the war of secession during tho Repub lican administration, almost identical in arrangement with tlie prison just dos cribed. This has been taken down and the stone preset ved to assist in the own Btructlou of the new work. A stone I foundation 1(1 feel wide running the [ em.re length of the buildiog about br> feel from the outside wall was put in at tho time of construction, the architects expecting to change the style of the old prison, but for some reason il was never done Upon this foundation the pre ent building now rests The shape s rec tangular, width 05 foot, length KiU foot The lifth story brings the height to 52 feet. The tien, on both sides and ends are 10 feet wide leaving a quadraugol within the budding .'15x1411 feet. 1 lie number of cells In each story is 50, the side tiers contain 25 each and the end tiers o each, making 2HU eel b in the en tire building All cells are of like dimensions, ."ixS; foot As prisoners are seldom In their cells except at night, two can occupy a cell without any ?Iis comfort There is a balcony three feet wide within the quadrangle around each of the live stories These balconies are supported by o?? steel brackets tied ded In the stone wall. There is no exposure whatever to the inmates in this arrangement as the en trance to the. cells as not from the out er sides, but from within tho quadrangle "lie quadrangle is secured by four so,id doors oi the ground floor. In white: the wdiole prison Will be as warm as the homes oi the wealthiest in the land, foi as stem of steam pipes will lravcrci every story of the prison. There will be plenty of light Kach cell contains ti window iNeal the outer edge of tlu sill is a steel grating: near the middle If a row of iron hjvrs, then a wiutlow Basil is fitted several inches from the hart which can he opened oi shut as ventila tioil suggests The building will be covered by ? modern gravel roof, and ventilated with louvres.

The New York moonshiner is a deoi 7. ui of the tenements, ami there is little 'hat is manly in his makeup, lie is in arly always a foreigner ami his ap pears ico suggests the dynamite bombs of the anarchist rather than the tradi tional rille of the Southern moon shiner. ??The making of illicit whisky in New York i> of comparatively new origin. Of COUISC the etulT has been | made liiere for a long time, hut it is only in the last fifteen years that it has been made in BUCil quantities. 11 As 1 have said, the foreigners Russian Jews generally -make the greater part of New York's illicit whisky. In the sweat shops these nu n would make probably or $b a week, but some of I hem make as much as s?b a week out of illicit whisky. It requires little money toongage in the business, und the profits are so large that tho temptation is irresistible. ?-it is hot stuff tlii- New York moonshine whisky. The moonshine made in the mountains of Georgia is as the. nectar of the gnds compared lo thi- COI COCtiou brewed in the New York tenement district. Our nioon shinerd make whisky out of corn, and, when properly made, it is the best whisky oil earth. The New York moonshiners make their whisky out of any old thing, and the result is the vilest draught that ever went down a human throat. It is liquid lire?no h-ss. Some sugar or molasses, plenty Of water ami a lew pounds ol yeast are all that the New York moonshiner re quires lo nun out ii whisky which not olliy makes a man speedily drunk, but seems to kindle every vile ln.-linel of hi> IUIllll'C to white heat. ??The New York moonshiner operates in a cellar, in a room, anywhere, in fact, where one would not expect to lind nn illicit still. lie is usually as sisted by his wife or daughter, und has been known to carry on the business I for years without detection. His wo !! men folks generally peddle the stuff I from tenement lo tenement, selling by I the drink or in whatever quantities the I buyer may desire. I have a rritnd in ? I the revenue service in New Yolk who writes me that the wife of one inoon ' shiner carried the stuff more than a ! gallon of it in a rubber bell about her waist. '? 11 i-s um? 11 more diliictllt to delect these New York moonshiners than their Southern brethren. The latter i do their work in their homes and are bothered by no waste. In the South a man familiar with the odor can smell ? a siill for miles. Out in New Yi rk there are so many scents more power ful that the peculiar odor of the still has little chance of being delected. The government keeps a large number of revenue o?icials at work in New York, and many arrests are made yearly, but still the production ol liquid , hell goes steadily Oil, Half the brutal crimes of tho cast side may be traced to the consumption of tho product brewed by the tenement moonshiners. The. man who gets outside of that stuff s capablo of committing any crime in he calendar. A Man <>i IM r.i.n SlMlciT.?We have read with much interest the ex perience of a young man who went from Ohio to Tennessee and bought a farm. He found in his neighborhood nothing but scrub stock. He could not supply every body with well-bred slock in fact, be didn't have the money to buy much for himself, lint lu could and did buy a pllic-brcd bill, and boar of some id* the best breeds, and then invited his neighbors to make use of them on their scrub stock, with no charge for the service. They availed themselves of the idler, and very soon there was a good supply of grade calves and pigs in the neighboi hood. Then ho began buying lliem up at a fair price, and the result was that in a few years he had large herds of line grade cattle and hogs, and was in position lo do n profitable stock busi ness. While helping himself, he had helped his noighbors, and while helping his neighbors he had helped himself. Public spirit is a good thing to havo. The world is learning every day I hat a man can best serve his own interests by taking account at the same time id the. interest! of others.?Tri-Statt I'dt'ttti r.
