IKNOIT and I were In

nid enough to say thai

the chateau's company when came
the pnge oi* the Demoiselle Alys to say
that his mistress followed upon him
and hade us attend to speak with her.
"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

"I eati make them for myself." she

"Well, it is right to s|.-ak in me of

"Truly bower women are become

"1 suppose it is not a matter of the

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

We both started. "Of a truth," said
J? "LVj. Rosalind Is not more hasty than

"Tonight," said father Benolt, to
show how vain It was to try to corrupt
him, "Is an utterly unsuitable, Impos

"Ob. there, there!" cried he, Mushing
very red. "I promise I promise to

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

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

"Well, lather a man can die hut

And I went singing down the stairs

My heart leaped up. and father Bo

"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

from falling, dropped the taper and

'?There. 1 have lost the shining fel

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

over the girl's body. W ithout i word,

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

a little of the water between her lips.

leather Benolt'S fat face was work

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

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

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

MOONSHINERS IN NEW YORK
They Operate Largely in the Ccl- |
larsuti the Notorious IvastSide '
14 The South 18 popularly supposed
io he the habitat of ihe |uoou*hiurr,"
said a revenue Olilciul to a lcporler of
the Athmla Constitution. u It) fuel,
lo teatl the newspapers, one would
conclude that illicit whisky is made in .
110 section ol the United Stales save
the South. The public is not to blame
for bo thinking, for every story rolul- ,
lllg to moonshiners has its scene laid
in tho mountains of Dixie, in Hiera
tine, the moonshiner is distinctly ttsull |
ol the Southland.
As a matter of fail, however,
there i? none moonshine whisky made I
in New York city and in the subuibs j
of the great metropolis than in the in- ,
tire South. The assertion may seem j
surprising, but it is a fact nevertheless. |
Tho oust tide of New York is a hot
bed of moonshiners. There are hun
dreds of men in that section of iho
great city who make large bums of
money by manufacturing whisky illi
citly.
"These New Yoik moonshiners
have liothiug in common with the
mountain dew makers of the South
PaVO the desire to evade UlC 1CV011U0
laws of the govuruii.out, The moon
shiner of the South is a cili/.eu of the
mountains, and. like till dwellers in ele
vated rcL ions is characterized by certain
manly trails which compel admiration.
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
