THE MERMAID'S VENGEANCE
A handsome, dashing youth was Den
vil Burke of Bantry castle. No bolder
rider had ever backed a horse, no more
reck loss player had ever ventured ,
broad gold pieces upon the uncertain
chance of the dlcebox, and so It came
to puss that before young Denny
Burke, as he was generally termed,
had enjoyed bis ancestral acres three
short years the "dlrtby money^' , be
came scarce and creditors pressing. :
One course alone was open to him—
the road which so many young bloods
bave followed. He must marry some
heiress. Not that there was the slight;
est difficulty about finding the heiress,
for It was a well known fact that the
rich Miss MacNulty of Ballydunderbog
would just give one of her two eyes for
. handsome, bold, young Denny Burke.
. It was true that Miss Biddy MacNul
ty. was on the wrong side of 30; true
that a more scrawny piece of humani
ty could not be found In the county.
But she . bad the golden guineas,
though, and after many a^ groan Denny
Burke made up bis mind to become the
master of Ballydunderbog.
Denny Burke was hi love with a fair
young peasant girl, and be bated to
give her up.
Kathleen O'Drlscoll was only a milk
maid.'but a fairer girl never trod old
Ireland's bogs.
%trnnge stories the village gossips
told about the beautiful Kathleen.'; Far
and wide through Bantry Kathleen
was known as the Mermaid's Child. It
was gravely related and currently be
lieved that the maid's beauty came
from no earthly source.
When she was but a babe, her moth
er had been used to take her at early
sunrise to the limpid pools amid the
rocks by the edge, of the sea and there
bathe her In the crystal waters. That
these pools were the haunts of, the'
mermaids, the fairy queens of the
ocean wave, was well known to all the
dwellers by the shore.
No one doubted such stories as tbese
In the least \ -'
Denny Burke had been in the habit
of meeting the girl, and quite a love
affair bad grown up between the two.
Kathleen, poor, simple soul, believ
ed that the young man meant all he
.said when he protested that he would
rather wed her than the richest lady In
the land.
To give Denny due credit be bad ful
ly Intended to marry the girl, -but
when he discovered how bad a state
his financial affairs were In be came
suddenly to the conclusion that ■ ngly
| Miss MacNulty and the broad acres
. of Ballydunderbog were far superior
to pretty Kathleen and love In a cot
tage.
And as Denny detested "scenes'"- he
never went near the . milkmaid, but
quietly married ' Miss Biddy offhand
and left to Dame Rumor the task of
informing Kathleen of his treachery.
Burke was married. . He could drink
and game and horse race now to his
heart's content
And Burke was not at all discom
posed when the news was brought one
fine morning that the body of the' HI
fated Kathleen bad . been cast up \by
the sea near the Mermaid's pool. The
girl had committed suicide.
-The day 'of the annual hunt came,
and, radiant In scarlet and white, bold
Mr. Burke showed: all . the gentle
men.ln the county the way when the
sly fox broke from his covert The
beast ran down by Killduffy's bog and
doubled to the sea by Arohoe glen.
The' "field" was all thrown off the
scent, and Burke, suspecting the fox's
trick, rode off alone, trusting to head
the beast by the Mermaid's pool.
Coming down the . slope, . Burkes
brown mare caught her foot and threw
Denny over her head. When Burke
recovered his senses, for he bad been
stunned by the fall, he found himself
lying on his side close by the edge of
the pooL ; . . -•
From the clear water a female form
arose— a woman of surpassing beauty.
"Do not fear, handsome stranger."
said the seamaid in tones both low
and sweet And then Burke felt [ a
strange fascination creeping over him.
"Oh, wonderful creature, can you
love a mortal?" he cried.
"Yes, if the mortal will but press
my lips," the mermaid answered coyly.
Eagerly Burke kissed the coral
mouth of the seamaid, and then a
hoarse laugh came from her lips.
Burke was never seen again In life,
but his body was found the next morn
ing by the haunted pool. The sea
maid had avenged the wrong done to
her foster child.— New York News.
Thought He Had Been Noticing.
Willie Wlshlngton was trying to be
conversational, but the young woman
wore glasses and looked severe, and
her mother surveyed the scene with an
expression of austere toleration. Wil
lie ought to have known better than to
call on Monday, wash day, anyhow. '
"Have you read any books lately?"
asked Willie, with the Inane grin which
he uses in society.
"Yes," answered the girL
"Been some pretty good ones written
lately, don't you think?"
"I haven't read any recent novels,"
she answered. I
"You ought to read some."
• "1 find ample entertainment In the
classics," was the rejoinder, while her
mother looked on with an approving
Bin lie. ■• ' . '
"Oh, yes; Shakespeare, I suppose.
He's a good old classic." . ..
"I "read Shakespeare - occasionally
when I read English. I also read Cor
neille and Mollere and Goethe and
Schiller, but only for diversion. Philo
sophic studies are my especial occupa
tion at .present" ',':.

It Still "Worked.
,"No," she answered coldly. "1 can
not marry a man who carries a rabbit* s
foot for luck."
■ For a moment be contemplated her In
Intense silence, but only for a moment
1 "Who," he exclaimed, "now can
doubt the efficacy of the rabbit's foot
after this?"
'.' Then he left her forever, pausing on

which was suitable to the occasion.—

THE SPORTING, WORLD.
Two years ago a little barefooted boy
wandered out to Woodbine "park at To
ronto. He was a blight faced young
ster and, meeting Alec Shields of the
racing firm of Carruthers & Shields,
expressed bis desire to ride one of his
horses.
"I was struck by his appearance,"

JOHNNY MARTIN.
boy." San Francisco racegoers have
bad a chance to see this youngster, for
he is Johnny Martin, accounted by
shrewd Judges to be one of the most
promising featherweight jockeys in the
world. His rise in the profession has
been unprecedented.
Last July Martin piloted Topmast to
victory in an owners' handicap at Fort
Erie. It was the first race that the lad
ever scored a winning bracket He has
won some 50 races since then and has
shown himself to be a more promising
little Jockey than was Johnny Reiff in
189S and 1899. Martin Is 14 years of
age and can ride at 65 pounds.
Queens of the Wheel.
During the year 1809 six wheelwom
en of New York city pedaled a total of
211 centuries, while in the same period
an equal number of metropolitan
wheelmen rode a total of 491 centuries.
Of the women cyclists Mrs. E. R,
Bayne and Miss Carrie Hitchcock com
pleted the greatest number of hundred
mile runs, the former having 50 to her
credit and the latter only two less. The
two great women century riders of the
year, however, were Mrs. Jane Lind
sey of Brooklyn and Miss Jane Yat
man of Manhattan. Miss Yatman's
century score was i! 3, and Mrs. Llud
sey's was 32.
Both these women compiled their
season's mileage In a series of record
rides that are without parallel among
women In the annals of cycling. Pre
vious to last year a triple century made
by a woman was considered a remark
able performance. But the rivalry
that sprang up between Miss Yatman
and Mrs. Lindsey for possession of the
title of queen of the wheel resulted In
the reeling off of multiple century rides
that occupied several days at a time
for completion and in which the public
at large evinced a more or less lively
Interest '
Slonne Quits V» For Good.
. "I am going back to England the Ist
of March," said Tod Sloane, the jockey,
recently. "I have interests there be
sides racing. I am interested In the
Shaftesbury theater of London, and
De Wolf Hopper is with me In the en
terprise. He has made a hit with the
English, and we expect a big run when
he starts In business. That will be
only on the side with me, however. I
cannot expect to ride . always, and I
want something to turn my attention
to when I quit the turf. I think a good
boy from this country can show them
the road for a long time to come."
Champion Harrlman Going Abroad.
Golf championships In Great Britain
are held earlier than In this country.
The dates for the amateur meeting
have been fixed for the week of May
17, at Sandwich, and the women's
championship will be held the follow
ing week at Westward Ho. The open
event will be played later In the season
at St. Andrews, n. M. Harrlman In
tends to make a European tour in the
spring, and if so he will visit the fa
mous golf courses and try his skill
against some of the old country cracks.
Cycllat Rosa 'Will Be Popular.
Arthor W. Rosa, the Irvington-Mill
burn hero of last yekr, who sails for
Europe shortly to follow the middle
distance racing game, will be very pop
alar abroad. Europe gave Jimmy Mi
chael to America In 189 C, and Europe
regretted the gift always. .. Michael
was popular all over Europe. He was
such aJlttle fellow that the ladles took
to him and petted him and made much
p,f him. Since Michael left for Amer

a successor.
The Legend of a Dell.
The largest hanging bell in the world
1b In a Buddhist monastery near Can
ton. It Is 13 feet high and 45 feet In
circumference and Is of solid bronze.
Canton has a pretty little fable con
nected with it The story Is told by
Mrs. J. P. Newman in one of her
sketches of travel. The life of the
founder of the greatest bell of China
had been threatened by the emperor
because of his unsuccessful attempts
to make a bell having perfect purity
of tone. The bell founder's beautiful
daughter, witnessing her father's
agony while Imploring the emperor for
one -more trial, consulted the gods as
to the reason for failure. Being told
that should the blood of a fair maiden
mingle with the bell metal the result
would be secured, she, waiting beside
her father until able to see her face in
the molten ore, plunged in nnd was de
stroyed. To the sacrifice of this maiden
the Chinese attribute the beauty and
sweetness of the tone of the great bell
of Ta-Cung-ta.— New York Tiroes."

A Penalty For Being; Polite.
It is more difficult to be polite In the
city ;of Hamburg than in any. other
place in Europe. There the most chiv
alrous man has to think twice before
giving up his seat in a car to a lady, as
he may be turned off the car for po
liteness, j It seems that the Hamburg
trolley cars will seat, according to size,
20 or 28 persons, 10 to 14 on each side.
Iv addition four perpons are allowed
on the front and five persona on the
back platform. .When the car is full,
the conductor hangs out a sign, "Be
ietzt." which means "occupied." and la
absolutely forbidden to take on another
passenger until some one gets off the
par.
Sometimes, while the conductor Is in
front collecting fares, a lady will step
on the car which is already "occupied."
As there Is no conductor on hand to
prevent her, the lady steps Inside, and
the gentleman who may offer her s
seat comes out and takes his stand on
the platform. When the conductor aft
er going his rounds returns to his post,
he promptly requests the gentleman to
step off. the car. ns he has forfeited his
seat and the car Is fully "occupied."
Should he refuse to leave the car he Is
put off. Tho policemen on the streets
art? instructed to watch the cars sharp
ly, and If they find a car carries even
one more passenger than Its proper
complement the conductor Is fined 72
cents, which Is paid to a charity fund
of the street railway company. — Phila

Salt and Horse Radian.
Some people care . for nothing but
lemon on raw oysters, but there are
others who desire horse radish. Usual
ly such folk regard the strongest horse
radish as the best, but an experienced
vender of the condiment ' poobpooba
this point of view. .;....
"Why should the strong horse radish
be considered good?" says he. "It
brings tears to your eyes and lifts the
top of your head off and makes you
want to sneeze. It has no taste what
ever. The wild horse radish, that which
has stood awhile. Is the best and pleas
antest always.
"There Is nothing so foolisb as to
think that the strong, biting kind Is
the fresh— tljat Is the reason why it Is
preferrc- 1 to the mild sort— for the very
stalest. -i :ikest horse radish can be
made in •_'<) minutes strong enough to
blow your head off. All you need to
do Is to add salt to It Try this some
time. Just take any old horse radish,
dump In a spoonful of. salt and then
notice the "difference. I 'don't know
why salt should have such a powerful
effect on the stuff, but no doubt a
chemist could tell you that"—Philadel
phia Record.
Turned It to Account.
A Derbyshire man. accompanied by
bis wife, happened to be traveling In a
train when, near Stafford, a collision
occurred, lie was well known for his
shrewdness In business, and he proved
that In the collision his wife received
a contusion between the eyes, for
which a Jury awarded £50 damages.
Some time after the affair bnd blown
over the following confession, or some
thing to the like effect was elicited
from tin* plaintiff In a moment of un
guarded conviviality:
"Well, yon see, when the collision
happened t' owld woman and I wur nil
reet, but when I looked out o" t' car
ridge I seed a lot of fellies In a ter
rible state. One 'sings out: 'By. lad!
Ise getten me head cut open. I*ll hn'
twenty peounds for this.' "Twenty
peounds. ye silly fule?' cries another.
'Ise gotten me shoulder out. and I'll
ha' forty peounds for 'f Wuen I heard
this," continued the clever business
man. "I jumpt at t'. owld woman
straight out and druv my 'end be
tw'en her eyes, and we'se gotten fifty
Doounds for It." — London Answers

Do You Cough?
" I gness I nsed to be like everybody else.

ing it would

each cold was worse than the one before. My
throat seemed to get weaker, and the least
change in the weather started the coughing
nprain. The last cold was the most severe ol
nil. I was really frightened. Cough drops
and home treatment did no good. A friend
told me about Acker's English Remedy. I
got a bottle, and you never saw the like of
the way it acted. Before the bottle was gone
I was well. My throat felt as strong and well
as could be. Since then I have had no more
trouble. I think Acker's English Remedy so
strengthens the delicate lining of the throat
that it easily resists the changes in tempera-
