A woman in Salt LakeCity, presnm
ablya Gtntile, enters this powerful pro
testa gainst polygamv. Some months
since Mr. R. brought the beautiful
Miss Finnell home to be our neigh
bor a plural Mrs. R. To my surprise
I was the recipient of an invitation to
attend the supper given in celebration
of this event. Mrs. B. (the first) re
cieved mo kindly, for away down deep
in her life this woman and I have
qualities in kinship. We sat down to
aupper at 6 o'clock. Mr. R. and his
first wife sat at opposite ends of the
table. The new Mrs. R. Fat by
"Sister Julia.' I had the post of
honor, at the right of the bridegroom.
This new kind of Benedict wore an
almost sheepish air and was ill at
ease throughout. It dawnod upon me
me at last that my presence on such
an occasion was a reproach to me. I
was more than ashamed of my own
stupidity in yielding to what appeared
so plainly asa most vulgar curiosity.
In such a mood it was of course dif
ficult to be amiable, and as the best
substitute for that amiability due
from a guest at a marriage feast, I
tried to be witty. Suffice it to say,
we succeeded hi stinging each other
like a nest of angry hornets, and
nothing but our good breeding pre
vented an open quarrel. We animal
fed at that supper with something of
the snappishness attributable to feast
ing wolves.
TIIA.T AGONIZING SUPPER OVER.
we stood round the bright fire in the
cozv little sitting room. Mr. R. had
planned to take his bride to the
theater, and so preparations in the
way of gloves, cloaks and bonnets
began. The late Miss Finnell was
soon toileted for the opera in most
fashionable attire. Mrs. R ray old
friend stood half reclining against
the piano. We had been silent for a
moment, and, to relieve the embar
rassment taking possession of us, I
wud : "Mr. R.. it almost makes one

iHUghed accommo latingly. Just then
Mr. R. placed his arm gently around
the slender wai-t of his new bride,
folding her handsome opera-cloak close
to her form and drewlier toward him.
She responded to this caress by a ten
der upward glance of her beautiful
eyes. Then I looked toward my
friend, to find her face pallid as death
while a look of agonizing endurance.

most froze my blood. 1 baa said
aloud in actual surprise before turn
ing toward her : "As I live, he actual
ly loves that girl." Mrs. Rs look
met mine squarely.
THAT FACE TOLD ME ALL.
No lies now with readv lips at the
bidding of fealty to religion. That
agonized, refined sensitive lace pro
claimed the system damned. A
woman's natural love rose grandly in
the awful denunciation of thoee fierce
eves. A great throb of pitv filled my
own woman's heart. I saw all the
tortare and the noble race of self-re
straint. I stepped toward her, as if to
hold her in pitv to my heart My

"I do pity you, Mrs. R., and I have

"You think me jealous of my new

"Mrs. R-, we are both proud

woman must feel under this ordeal
through which voa are pnteing."
'I am not jealous, Mrs. Castine.

A LUNATIC'S RatVSNGX
A Bomantic Story of tha Kirk
bride Asylum at Philadelphia.
From the Ph:lade'44iia Pro.
Six or seven year- after the Kirk
bride Insane asylum was opened in
West Philadelphia, a young man was
brought there for treatment tor a
mild form of insanity. He was the
eon of a wealthy Georgian planter und
larfre slave-owner. He was educated
at Yale college, but before graduat
ing he ran away to fi?a, and. after
some years' absence, he was picked
up by an American vessel on one of
the Southern Pacific island. He
then returned home, but about a year
later his mind becoming disordered,
he was went to Kirkbride's asylum.
His case was rarely violent, and the
keepers regarded his threats of ven
geance npjn them made by him as
harmless. Oue day he asked Dr.
Kirkbride to allow him to go to
Washington to visit some friends, but
the dttor refused pitively.
"All right fir," the man replied,
"you reftwe me. and upon the honor
of a Southern gentleman, you shall
pav lor it."
Dr. Kirkbride thought little of the
threat, and would lake no precaution
to prevent him from carrying it out
until one morning the patient was
missing from the asylum, and then it
Dr. Kirkbride said; "Oh. he'll re
turn hre before long," and he did.
He returned one night, scaled the
high wall of the hospital and concealed
himself in a tree. 1 he next morning,
while Ir Kirkbridge was walking in
the grounds, a shot was heard, and
the superintendent fell to the ground
wounded. The man then decended
from the tree, gun in hand, and gave
himself up. The bullet had glanced
from Kirkbride s head, doing noi
serious damage, and buried itself in
the soft flesh, where it remains to
this day. A charge of assault with
attempt to kill was entered against the
man, but the verdict ot insanity was
found, and he was sentenced to the
Eastern penitttnliary for "safe
keeping." and on the" 29th of this
month it will be twentv-nine years
since the patient took up his abode in

looked up quietly, and, after a
moments pause, said: ,4Yes. that is
Dr. Kirkbride. whom I tried to kill
twentv-five vears ago. He insulted
me, and I promised, as a Southern
gentleman, to punish him for it, and I
did."

When bis father, the late Leonard
Chase, came to Cleveland, about
1810, this was almost a wildaernass.
Chase was a man of saaall means, and
a farmer becoming indebted to him
for a yoak of oxen, ha was compelled,
reluctantly, to accept a ten acre lot
for the debt. The lot is down in the
heart ot the city, and made the Cases
millinnaries. Leonand Case left two
'sons. William and Leonand. Jr. Wil
Ham was formerly President of the
Lank Shote Railroad, and alter wards
Mayor. William died in 1862, and
Leonard, the elder, in 1865, both
without leaving a will, and Leonard,
Jr., thus came into possession of a
nronertv estimated to be then worth
U7,00,000. This has nearly doubled
since 18G5, so that when Leonard Case
I died he was the richest landed pmpri
' etor in the Slate. He was born in
' 1820, graduated at Yale, studied law
in Cincinnati, and was admitted to
practice in 1842. He never followed
bis profeion, however. He was one
of the finest mathematicians in the
country, and liesides a fine classical
scholar. Some one in 1855 having
made the assertion that the Atlantic
Monthly would not accept a poem
! from a Western source, no matter
how meritorious, he wrote and sent
anonymously "Treasure Trove," an
historical poem, which was accepted
and afterwards reprinted in book
form. In lo?6 he published a volume
that waa favorably received. Hia ec
centricities were' many. When a
young man he purchased teu beauti
ful steeds, and presented them, hand
somely caparisoned, to as many of his
lady friend. Noticing an old acquaint
ance walking the street in a dejected
manner, and evidently meditating on
a recent lots of fortune, be slipped up
behind him, and, placing in his hands,
which were folded behind his back, a !
roll of bills, amounting to $500, fled
precipitately before the man could
discover his benefactor. One day he
drove to the Hcntld office and invited
J. H. A. Bone, the editor, to take a
drive. Passing along one of the prin
cipal residence streets, he pointed out
several lots, and asked Mr. Bone
which he thought the most eligible
for building. Bone made a selection,
and Case said, "Well, build a house
on it and send me the bills. When
it is completed I'll give you a deed of
the property." And he did, much to
the astonishment of the scribe. Wish
ing to give a needy person a suit ot
clothes without letting the fact be
come knowu he took him to a cloth
ing house just after an election and
told the clothier to give the man a
suit, as bo bad lost it to him on a
wager. A few years ago he walked
into a meeting of the Young Men's
Christian Association, laid $1,000 on
the table, and left without saying a
word. He never would notice a direct
appeal for charity, and some ladies,
having solicited his help, he rebufled
them flatly. The next day they re-
cieved a $500 bill anonymously. He
founded Case Library, giving 'to the
association a property worth IJOO.OOU,
emploved an agent to dispense charity
secretly, and gave away during his
life thousends of dollars. He brought
Prof. Stockwell. the moat eminent
matbematic astronomer since Laplace,
to Cleveland and built him a fine
house and observatory, besides giving
him a stated income for the support
ot his family. He did many other
things for the cause of astronomy and
geography, in both of which studies
he wat aa enthusiast. He never tor
gave ingratitude. Having established
a friend in New York in the dry
goods hutinest, the man squandered
his money to the extent of $50,000,
and then came to Cleveland to explaia
matters. Case refused to see him or
hold anv communication with hi
Thereupon he made a protege of a
young ton of ex-Mayor Cbapin, and
on his birthday, a tew yean since,
preseuted him with a check for 121,-

land were erected by the Cases, but
those which are moat widely known
are Case Hall and Case Block, which
is occupied bv the dtv at a rent of
aearly $50,000 annually. Leonard
Cae had no public spirit, and was
a hindrance rather than a help to the
city. He owned 2,000 acres of aaim

which led to the aisrder. For ome time
previou to the murder Henniag had been
cognisant of ih fact that there wa crim
inal intimacy between Lucy, hia wife, and
Allen MaUita. He nard every elort in hU
power to break np the unholy alliance. He
even called in the law to hia aid, but with

of the wronged hiwband were unheeded. In
