and I.a (Irnmle Chnmnirrej in fnct uf

which Hie 1'jriidnn grielte viilts regu
larly in order to lose her heart and not
Infrequently lier rosy cheeks aud tbe
freshness of her youth.
llarcourt pretended to study medicine,
nud it was imioug llH'e jiretty girlii
sellers of flower, embroiderers nf linen,
and painters' luiiilei'a that be managed
lo forget il.o terrors of the hospital nud
the scene i' the surgical amphitheater,
Charles Havcnnit bad just nrrived nt
the lime of lift, when a roft down shows
on the Hp, when love knocks nt the
breast, and when the beart resembles n
Insty tree, full of vigor, from which has
fallen as jt neither leaT nor fruit.
The tromliones of the orchestra roar,
like fhnndrr on a Mutiny sen: the vio
lins scream like sea gulls nliove the
wavest the music rolla nnd growls like
some linugry beast. All is contusion.
White shoulders and gold lace gleam
through tho heavy air. The innocent
nnd tbe guilly dunce together In tho
same delirious motion.
While llio dancers turn and whirl,
advancing wildly and in wildly reheat
ing, far in a ciirnessils a slender girl
watching the dunce willi uu air of sad
ness. Her mournful eyes follow- the
crazy motions of t lie crowd with aston
ishment, and a light Righ moves the
folds of mull on her breast.
In tbe lnidst of this indescribable
confusion, this pellir.ell of figures and
voices, appears that of a handsome boy
of twenty-two, remarkable for bin vivac
ity and the boldness ot his sptccb and
gesture. Finally, when tbe violins have
ended their agonizing cries and tbe
lamp, aie dying before the oncoming
daylight, this lioy, whom his friends sa
lute as llarcourt, leaves the ball, a new
conquest upon bis arm it is the slender
brunette of the corner.
Charles ITart ourt nupvnred no more
at tho bnlln of the Latin quarter, but
spent bis days at IYKcole de Medicine,
passing bis tirst examinations with dis
tinction. In one of those fascinating
little bousei such tiro Beranger pro
tends to have inhabited at twenty
Charles made bis home, guarding jeal
ously the diingernns happiness of a
union contracted without the help of
lo maire and which is called morganatic
tu avoid the use of a K-ss delicate phrase.
His conquest of the ball was named
Mina. Khe was a good and affectionate
cbilil, and in spile of tbe anacreontic
quadrilles of the Latin quarter, she was
innocent, hlia had kept her heart in
tact, It was her sole economy. Charles
and Mina loved one another like two of
La Fontaine's doves. But Mina was a
consumptive, ami Charles rend witli af
fright the death of bis happiness in the
paling face of bis beloved,
His care of her Tvas uutinug; but this
implacable malady never releases, and
Boon in a kiss Charles received bis mis
tress's last sigh. Mina died in tbe ho
pitalj her long illness having exhausted
their feeble resources, and Charles b.ul
the cruel courage lo deliver the lody of
bis beloved to tbe invesiigations of tbe
pathologist. He wished to pursue, even
In tbe flesh, Ibis rival who bad killed
lier. lie made use of n cynical usage to
preserve tho skull. This, with a plaster
mask molded upon tho emaciated body
of the dead girl, was all that remained
to him.
Miua'a los affected Charles profound
ly. Out of a character frivolous and
careless, devoted only to coarse pleas,
tires, had grown a deep and serious love
This honest and generous affection bad
Stifled the genus of eil. Jlinn dead.
he was seized as by u vertigo, aud ho
plunged into the abyss. He found him
self face to face wflh evil, and throw to
this monster the rest of bis youth.
In this ocrHii of false pleasures the re
membrance of illna waa drowned, and
a petulant little grlsette called Marielle
took lier place. One night iu Xorember
Marielte and one of her friends, Charles,
and one of his companions were together
in a little bouse on the Hue Ores. The
night was cold and sinister; masses i
heavy clonds were driven across a gray
skv, the moon showed lier lnounful face
only at intervals, sudden showers lieat
upon the windows, and the wind howled
at tbe cracks.
These four young iieuplo drank and
sang, unaffected by the storm and their
strange environment. It was tbe stran
medley of the student's life that showed
in tbe small room here signs of wurk,
and there the broken Imtllrs of a driuk
iMiut. A small table held a driei
tibia, a pile ot medical woiks. some
empty wine bottles und some niticles of
the toilet, mere, loo, waa the plaster

a small clock aud human skull, At
one -ide a tiny couch, on tho walls racks
for on anil toine cheap lithographs.
Marielle and her friend Host, lounged
about iu untidy dishabille. )jrne
made a pretense of study, while Chailes,
dulled by the warm and heavy air of
the room, leaned on lue 1"H table 1

"Ah, that's an original Idnfl!" cried
Ernest. "fjarUMe, yon have the luiug

Charles felt a shiver clutch hi in in tta
cold ringers from bend lo foot. Marietta
showed her leeth In the horriblo Joy of
a secured -vengeance. Tho rain "fell

Little by little drunkenness overcame
these ribald lieinga who jested with the

In one ot the older maunals of tho

were exactly twenty streets and it pop

with the exception of one whoso name
appears In tho list as Jacob, the French
man. Theru were Uooeevelta, Beekmaus, De
Peyslers, De Puys, Van Corrlaudts and

of the settlers at that period. Occasion

YORK'S DIALECT.
Ab.nisl The.ur.li it le, II Is Tn.iRttl
In

How many iiersons know that New
York city has a dialect all its own, nnd
one that it maintains in purity by teach
ing it iu the public schools? Many per
sons have commented en the precision
with which a New Yorker can spot a
arranger the instant the stranger under
takes to prouotiuce thoziaineof tho prin
cipal strootn in the town. We call it
Broadway, emphasizing tbe last sylla
ble very strongly. It nppears to ls quite
a trick to do this, and it is evidently an
unnatural ronnncialioii, for we notice
that tbe very great majority of stran
gers say Broa-wn. So we spot them on
tbe instant and ask tbem from what
part of the country tbey hall, jnst to
show them that there Is something nlwnt
them tlutt is not city-lied, and to set
them puzzling about whether it is in the
ahape of their hat, or tbe style of their
shoes, ur what 11 Is.
People from th" south letriiy the fact
by calling our Houston street "Hewstou
street," as lhat name is prononneoil from
Texas to tbe Chesapeake, but we play
as strange a trick: with, another name,
for we call Coenties slip "Qnincy alip.'
As uo one would do that naturally, we
detect strangers bv that pronnnciaUon.
Tbe name nf Hnboken is another that
we trifle with, calling it Habbnckeu
But in ways and bywords otber than
these I can pick out a New Yorker any
where that be and I may meet, whether
it be in Boston or in the Rocky noun-
tains. 1 can do this by noticing how lis
pronounce the "nr" souud in snh
word? .is birth, bitd, , 'trlb, hoard, sto.

Tlie queer little twi.t that euiers so
largely tntoonr language In marring one
of the cardinal sounds that com)se it'is
thns expressed by our tongues; nr-yith
is how we say earth, bur-yid is how we
say bird. We say hnr-yid for heard
and inur-yiil-uer for inuruer. All ot us
who were born iu New York have heard
the public school teachers insisting upon
this liecullar twist, commanding the
pupils to put on the trademark as light
mg men once wore ttie coat nf arms ox
their feudal masters. Most of ns, txi,
have heard nice, careful little girls on
the way home from schisd correcting
careless companions by insisting lhat
you inussint ssy tmrd; you mnst say it
nicely, lmr-yid."
Of all the senseless imft unmusical ami
bad things that are done ttt English that
1 one of the worst, because one expects
to hear a language at its liest In the
greatest city of a country, and thither
foreigners repair to study English aud
then perhaps to go Iwk home ami teach
it with s whole lot of little tricks like
that in theirheuls, tolte solemnly taught
and scattered, until no one knows where
the mischief will end. Of course 1 d(
not want Ibe reader to understand, that
very nice people uiurder the language
in these or any other ways, but the great
masses of New Yorkers, those who get
their learning iu the public schools and
whose tongues were trained In Old new-

are the victims of this most petmtlai

nge oi inirty-mne years. -ir. inmpKiLS
waa almost penniless win n. a mere Isiy,
he first camo to this cily. He understood
his business, however, and be bad tbe
courage to strike out into n new path.
Tbe result wn that building his busi
ness up little by little be died witrtb
tfi0H,0uu. To his wife, fully us lunch as
to himself, this success i dne, and Mr.
Tompkins was always the first to no-
knowledgo this.
When Mr. Tompkins was fourteen
years old he ran away from the home
where he was born, at Newport, II. 1.,
and came to this city, with the nsnal
resolvo of making n fortune fur him
self. He had ten dollars In his pocket
when he started. This, with what.
knowledge of groceries be bad picked
np at llio markets near his home, consti
tuted his stock in trade. Naturally on
reaching the city be drifted to the gro
cery districts, nnd got work as dork In
grocery storo on Catharine street.
Tho proprietor ot the store nt first paid
the lad barely enough to keep bun alive,
but realizing that young Tompkins was
getting so thorough a knowledge of the
trade as to make hlin valuable ho raised
)iis wages very eoon.
Instead of living iu accordance with
his Increased means, Tompkins contin
ued to live In tbe same manner as be
foro, pntting asldo all his surplns money
for the pnrposnnf buying a horse snd
track. A picture of him taken shortly
after his fifteenth birthday look more
like that ol a man of twcniy-elght than
a yotuig boy. ne wa then tall and well
devclojied, with a good sized mustache
and "sidebnrns," Il was more than two
years before the young clerk had saved
enongh to bny such a horso nnd truck
as ho wanted. When at length he went
into Ibe truck business he made money
eo rapidly that at tho end ot two years
he was enabled losell out and establish
a retail grocery store in Sipring street,
near Clinton market.
It had lx!?n his idea since his arrival
In New York to own a grocery store.
There were at that time no cheap cash
down groceries iu the city. Tompkins
made up his mind that lliero was money
to bo mndo iu a purely cash Imsiness,
with a cheap scale of rrices tor trndo
among the isiorer people. Following
out this idea ho Increased his Inisinessto
such an extent lhat he soon moved to a
larger store, and then to a still larger
one. Within two tears utter the pur
chase nf his first store Mr. Tompkins,
now tw only-one years old, bought out
tho large grocery at Spring and Sullivan
streets, and hired another building for a
storehouse near by. It was about Oils
time that b met Mina Josephlue Coop
er, of 27 Charlton street. He fell In lovo
with her, and after n sboit couitehip,
notwithstanding that Miss Cooper was
only rirtoeii year old, tbey were mar
ried. Trom that lime on Mr. Tompkins
bad a partner in Ins business as well us
lu his life.
"You go en nnd extend tho business,"
said young Mrs, Tompkins to her hus
band, "lean manage the Spring street
Storo while tnu look after the general
matters." And she did. With n school
knowledge nf llgnfcs and bookkeeping
she went into die Spring street store,
mastered ibe business in ever)' detail,
nnd alone and unaided lias cotiduclcd It
up to tho present timo in such ,i manner
as to make it tho most successful estab
lishment owned by Mr. Tompkins. The
business spread steadily, new stores 1h
iDg established in Bleerkcr street, Ninth
and Sixth avenues, and in otber place
in this city and Jersey City, until ut the
timo of bis death Mr. Tompkins owned
eleven retail stores, besides tbe two
wholcalo establishments at S3-0I (Janse
voort sheet.
From the first Mr. Tompkins stuck by
his principles of cash lwyraents. Ho
discounted all bis bills, ami thus was
able to buy where others could not,
dealers who wen in need ot ready
money often coming to bim in prefer
ence to others, as they knew that they
could get cash tor their goods. H was
his idua to drop gradually lit retail
trade and go Into the wholesale luisl
nesa entirely. The care of so many es
tablishments was wearing on him, but
be absolutely refnsetl to let any one else
take-part iu tbe management.
"I have built up the business and I
will run it, be eald, "I want no part
ners nr mauagen to tell me what to do.
When 1 want advice I cau go to ray
wife. I would rather hnTt1 lier judg.

grocery business than that of any man

ways by her advice, and lo her fully as
much, if not mure than tit myself, tbe
success of our business is due. New
