This was Abby a side of the fitory, nml
thiaahe kept repeating to herself as (die

looking mournfully at tlie new dreaa
spread out on tho bed before her, ami oc
casionally dashing tho back of her hand
across tier cyea to wipe away thoso tears
which, do what Blio would, tiersined in

lint Mother Tonkins tale was very
different. As alio told her good friend.
Mrs. Hopping, who had just stopped in
for a moments chat, she bad a very
good reason tor keeping her daughter nt
home that night.
'Now, I II tell yon, Mrs Hopping, be
muse I know you won't ever let it reach
any of tho Wntkinscs" (tlie good lady
know this to bo tho quickest and most
reliable way to get tho story to neighbor
Wfttklns' family), "1 11 tell you why I'm

They do say, them that see him before
that ho's mighty pleasant. Now, then,
where 11 poor Tom be? 1 tell you what
'tis, Mrs Hoppin' " (and hero Mrs. Took
ins heaved a deep sigli and leaned u very
solemn fnco over the pan of half peeled
potatoes), "I tell yon 'twould bo down
right wrong, wicked, for mo to let th.it
young girl go and jest p'rhapa ruin that
poor Tom's iiTe for him, now wouldn't
It!"
'Yes, indeed, Mrs. Tookins," tho ottier
woman replied, "if you let her do eech a
thing yon wouldn't dosnrre salvation
nohowi" and tho pious Mrs Ilorping
rotted her horror strlckon eyea toward
tho rafters. Boon after slio took tier
leave.
As Mrs. Tookms, standing on her
doorstep, watched her friend waddle
slowly down tho road, sho thought to
hersclfi "Now, cf shell only bo real
qnick an tell the Watkinses, I know it'll
bring Tom round w lieu he thinks be
may loso Abby 1 guess lio'll look alive."
ilrs. ilorping, on tho other hand, as
sho tnrned nt the bend of tho road to
wave ft last goodby to her neighbor
said to herself: "I know sho thinks that

kerlate Hannah Watkius won't bo over

have 'em together much wbilo that city
tellers Tounil. I gneas It 11 gall her n
bit." And Mrs. Hopping chncklod to
herself no she tried to hurry along tlie
road.
So the story was told half an hour
later at tho Watkinses Mrs. Hopping
jeet happened to lie pasaiit their way,
and thought she'd Jct stop In to let
them know Abby Tookins oontdn't come
that night Too bad, wasn't It? But
then Mrs Tookins was ulways kinder
stuck up," etc., until the rest of the story
as conceived by Mrs Hopping, had been
told.
Meanwhile the pour girl on whoe ac
count these good ladles troubled them
selves so much sat lonely In her room,
thinking of the dance that she was to
miss, which all the others were to enjoy
and of Tom
He would see them all but her. and
Sarah Hopping, she knew she wonld be
extra nice to Tom tonight, and would
look so pretty, and oh, if Tom would
only say whether he cared moet for her,
Abby, sitting here alone, thinking of
htm. He had said everything else, aud yet
he was so nice to the other girls, and
tonight be wonld see thorn all but her."
A thought teemed to strike her: slowly
she went down stairs into the kitchen
'11a, oftil I help you get the supperr"
'No, Abby. child, supper's all ready,'
the mother replied "Now, you Just ait
down, and pa'll be in in a minit, and
we II bev a real good event u together -I
wouldn't mind the old party."
Abby said nothing, aud soon, as Mrs.
Tookins bad predicted, Pa came in
Then they set down to table, aud after a

began. They didn't talk much. Ma was

waa, wnlliiii.j alono on this dark, cloudy
night the mile between her own house
and Neighbor Watkine'.
For awhile all went well as she hur
ried nlong the well known road. Thon,
as sho left the open country and entered
the wood, a gentle sighing of the trees
overhead and the occasional sound of a
dead limb falling told tills country girl
that a storm was coming up.
Sho hurried on, breathless, excited
thinking now of but one object; of that
one purpose which for a week had lilted
her whole soul of seeing Tom that
night and having him see her; of hav
ing him look at her, kuow how beauti
ful sho was and then of having him
tell her that he loved her: that she was
tho only one ho loved And now tho
wind was howling through the trees and
beating her hack witli terrific force.
Fiercer and fiercer it blew until it
soeuied as If the great trees were doing
battlo, swaying, landing their mighty
trunks and pelting eacli other With their
shattered branches On tho girl went
through the storm, on, on. wild now,
hardly heeding the fury nbont tier, de
termined Crush! a fulling limb struck her fnll
upon the forehead. She sank with a
cry. and tlu'n lay upon the road, quiet,
insensible to tho furious blasts of wind
and fearful sounds that filled the forest.
Soon after, dnrlug a lull in the storm,
n rumble of wheels sounded up tho
road, a wagon drovo np: in it were two
men As they reached tho dark fonn
lying so still, they stopped. One of
them, leaping to tho ground, bent over
tho young girl and lifted her head.
"Here, driver," ho said, "get out and
help tuo lift this girl into tho wagon;
she's hurt. Thank heaven I didn't
wait In tho village all night! How
much farther is it to this Wutkins

ho carried her gently into tho houBo. As

brother, a successful manufacturer of
flutes and pianos, and unless I am very

Is still tho greatest piano making house
in England, though thero are no Astora
In H now.
John Jacob was on his way to Amer
ica, mid only went to England to stop
awhile and learn English aoat which
he had not accomplished when he diod.
When he readied New York city, not
very long after the close of tho Revolu
tionary war, he had heard about the fur
business and had determined to embark
in it. It docs not matter whether he
peddled a littlo before that any more
than it matters whether Jay Gould sold
rat traps before ho became a railroad
operator. "
In time John Jacob apprenticed him
self to a fur dealer aud learned all tho
tricks and secret of tho business. But
in the meantime he had cotno to this
city for tho sanio reason ho had gone to
London he had n brother here. This
brother was Henry Astor, and in tlioeo
days nobody questioned which would be
tho more successful of the two, for
Henry waa a mighty and n cunning
man in business.
He was a butcher in the Bowery and
lived above his store thero. Ho had
married n chubby, rosy German wom
an, of whom ho used to boast, "Sho was
dcr pootlest gal by der Bower-."
THE TWO BROTHERS.
Now tho Bowery was no ordinary
street, nnd Ucury waa no ordinary butch
er. Tho Bowery was the southern ter
mination of the old Boston post road,
and down it came the bnlk of ,tho
produce of the countryside which was
oaten in and shipped from New York, i
Among other things all tho cattle camo
into town on that road on tho hoof to be
sold to tuo umotiers. iienry Knew mat

Henry put his knowledgo to practical
use. Ho drovo out of town twico a
week ou matket days and met tho cattle
on tho road uri in tho country. Thero
ho bought tho host of nil tho steers and
cornored tho market. It was ho who
thereafter set tho pricos and sold to tho
other butchers. His young brother,
John Jacob, was justae instinct with tho
speculative Bpirit, but ho had no money
to buy with and so lie used to borrow of
Henry.
Henry did not like that. Ho distrusted
his brother's shrewdness, or olse he was
close with his money. At any rate ho
loaned it to John Jacob unwillingly, nnd
finally ho met n request for n loan with
a bluff "No." Ho said he would not bo
bothered any more, but this is what ho
would do. He would givo John Jacob
tho Bum of $.100 outright as n gift if John
Jacob would sign n paper promising
never to ask for the loan of another
penny from that date forever. John
Jaoou jumped at the offer. Ho took tho
$000, and perhaps that had moro to do
with the foundation of tho great Astor
fortune than nny other sum he got in nil
Ids life.
TUB KMJT I.N TUB FAJIILV.
1 have heard that thero aro some
Astora descendent from Henry living tip
the Hudson river, and that tho great and
rich Aston have nothing to do with
them. 1 do not know whether that is
true or whether there nro such Astors,
but if it is truo it is all right, for nenry
unquestionably parted with the rest of
the family deliberately and in cold blood
when he pajd that sum of money to John
Jacob bo as not to be bothered by his
then poor relations any more.
John Jacob Astor prospered amazingly.
He made millions when it was something
that nobody else unconnoctod, with roy
alty appeared able to do, except the
Rothschilds in Europe. Witli those
millions, made by putting the entire con
I tinent under a tax for ibj f tins, he estab
lished not only a landed estate, but a
family with a principle, with a fixed
purpose.
He was ut incalculable service in the
development of New York, because he
went to districts the city had not reached
and built dwellings for persons ot mod
erate means He built them very well,
to last as long as possible, and he rented
them for a fair return, thus establishing
a moderate system ot rentals witli all
the landlords of the city
In another ;,-cneratiou an unfortunate
split occurred, and tho estate and the
family have since then gone forward in
two parts, much the larger part (nearly
two-thirds, 1 believe), going to the de
aceudanta of the elder son, and the small
er part to the descendants of a second
son. William Waldorf Astor now rep-
vesents the bulk of tbe estate, and the
little baby, John Jacob, is heir to the
smaller part. John Kalph in 1'roviaence

A few years ago no uinn dure ride,
through tlie streets of any Chilian citj
ou flood Friday. Even the cars were
not nllowcd to run; all business was
stopped and no sound of wheel or ham

gious silence In these days of liberal

deepest mourning and most of the shops
nro shut, the cars nnd public carriages
go about as usual nnd sumo business may
be transacted
Tho strangest and most impressive
part of holy week camo on tho night of
Good Friday, when n long lino of female
worshipers, leal by the dignitaries of tho
church and joined by a very few men,
crept to tho cross on their knees, They
first knelt in the front yard of tho church
and slowly crawled on their knees
through the gravelly courts, up through
tho long hall until they reached the im
ago of the crucified, nnd each in turn
kissed the wounded foot
So solemn was tho Bceno that many
Protestants and persons of no particular

Later, there was a weird torchlight
procession, led by the chanting pricta
in black robeB, followed by n concourio
of people who boro in the midst upon
their shoulders n company of life size
images representing all tho saints, each
clothed in flowing velvet robes. Among
them was the blessod Virgin, arrayed in

Tho holy sopulchcr was represented by
a largo box draped in white muslin, half
revealing a reenmbent figure. All these
were surrounded by devotees with lan
terns and candles, nnd followed by an
unwholesome rabblo, runuing, jostling
nnd pushing on every sido.
On Saturay morning, tho last of holy
week, especial services were again held
in nil tho churches, which woro Bhll

entered in procession, nnd thero waa it
great deal of extinguishing' and lighting
of candles, tinkling of bells nnd other
ccromonies whoso impott wo did not

"VOWS OF ENTHUSIASTS.
Many devout Chilians tako a vow that
if tho Virgin will do certain things for
them such, for example, as to rostoro a
nick friend to health they will perform
this or that ceremony, or dress them
selves or their children inn certain color
for n certain length of time One day I

a surprise at tier unsuitable choice of
color was informed, in a ti no of pro
fonndeat respect for the matron in ques

knowu wealthy cltiien, who, havinfi
lost several children, vowed that it het
