FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 25, 1861
Tie Twia Bracelets.
" I will net threaten, yen, Hilten !
Years age I made my will, and you will
be my heir. I shall net alter one line of
that document, because I wHl net bribe
you te de my will, or even te be an honor
able man. Ten may marry whom you will,
may defy my wishes in every way, and
lese my love and my respect, but this
money will be yours."
The quick, indignant flush en Hilten'
Graeme's face, the sudden erectness of
his figure, told that his uncle had well
calculated the effect of his words. Truly,
with his frank brown eyes, his sensitive
mouth, his bread white brew, he looked
little like a man te be bribed, but it was
easy te read that he could be ruled by his
affections. When he spoke, his voice was
low and his tone pleading.
" De you mean, Uncle Geerge, that I
shall lese your love and respeet if I marry
Ada Willet ?"
" Or any ether woman who is absolutely
nobody. What de you knew of her f "
" Unly that she tne revetiess, noeiest
woman I ever saw. If you knew her-you
would love her."
" Yes yes ; but I mean, what de you
knew of her family ?"
" Only what she has told me herself,
that her mother died of poverty; after
struggling te support herself by her nee
die. They were miserably peer for a long
time, and then Mrs. Willet began giving
her work te Ada's mother. When she
died Mrs. Willet took Ada te her ewh
home, and after giving her every advan
tage her own child could have enjoyed,
and adopted her."
" What was her name ?"
; Smith."
"Bah !" said Mr. Hilten, with every ex-
pressien of disgust " Well, marry her if
you will. Your present allowance shall be
doubled, but you need net bring her here ;
ard with a sudden fierceness, he added :
"I want no woman here te remind me of
the east I bad hoped forgotten."
Never, in all his recollection of h:'
grave, quiet uncle, had Hilten seen him se
moved. His voice was sharp with tbe
pang of seme sudden memory, his eyes
flashed, and his whole frame trembled
with emotion.
"Yeu are a man new," he said with one
of these strange impulses te confidence
that often seize the most reserved men,
"a man seeking a wife. "I will tell yen
what never before passed my lips te
another living being. I have a wife some
where and a child, it may be." Utter as
tonishment kept Hilten silent.
"It's all my own fault," Mr. Hilten con
tinued, "that I am a lonely, miserable
man, instead of a happy husband and
father: Twenty years age, when I was
past 40 years old, I fell in love. Fell 'in
love, for I was nearly insane ever Myra
Delane when I had seen her three times,
I courted her with eager attention, rich
presents, flattery, every fascination I could
command. I was net an unattractive man
at 40. I had traveled extensively, had
been a close student, was emphatically a
society man, a successful lawyer and com
manding large wealth. Myra was 25,
superbly handsome, accomplished and
graceful.
"I thought she loved me. I thought
there was only love aud devotion in the
love-light of her large blue eyes, the vary
ing color en he cheek. We were married,
traveled two years en the continent and
then returned here te this house and
opened its doers te society. Our child
was nearly a year old when we came home
and what love I could spare from Myra I
gave te baby Anna. We were very popn pepn
lar,being hospitable and generous, gather
ing around us refined people and both
exerting ourselves te the utmost for the
pleasure of our guests. But while we
were traveling, all in all te each etner,
there was sleeping in my heart a demon
who stirred te life when we returned.
Streng as my love I found my jeal
ousy. T was an idiot a mad, jealous
idiot for I stung a proud, sensitive woman
te contempt of my opinion, defiant of my
unworthy suspicions. New I can see that
Myra was but filling her proper place in
society as a hostess or guest; but then,
blinded by my jealousy, I grudged any
man a pleasant smile or a cheery word. . I
cannot tell you new of every scene that
turned her love for me te fear and dislike.
She became pale and miserable, after sul
len and defiant. Finally she left me."
"Left you?"
"I came home one afternoon, after con
ducting an intricate criminal case, and
found a note en the table, telling me that
Myra could no longer endure the life of
constant quarreling and reproach. She
had taken her child and would never re
turn te me."
" Did she net go te her relatives ?"
"She bad but few. Her father died
while we were abroad and having been con
sidered a rich man, was found te have left
less than his funeral expenses. She had
an aunt and some cousins, te all of whom
I went, but who denied all knowledge of
her. After searching with the eagerness
of penitence deep and sincere, and love
most profound, I finally advertised and
even employed private police investiga
tion. It was all in vain ; I never found
wife or child."
"Yet you think they live ?"
"I cannot tell. I remained here for five
years and then, as you knew, went te see
my only sister, dying of consumption."
"And te become my second father."
"Yes, my boy. I found you, my little
namesake, a sobbing boy of twelve, heart
broken ever your mother's illness and
death. Yeu knew the rest of my life's
history. I retired from the pursuit of my
profession, traveled with you, made you
my one interest in Jue. xeu tilled an
empty house and heart, for I loved you,
Hilten, as dearly as I loved my baby
daughter whose childhood is a closed,
sealed book te me."
"But, Uncle Geerge, can nothing be
done new ?"
"We have been in Londen three years
and every month there has been an adver
tisement only Myra would understand in
the leading papers I have never had one
line of answer. Ne, my boy. It is hope
less new. If in the future you ever knew
of my wife and child I trust them te your
care and generasity."
It seems as if in the excitement of his
recital Mr. Hilten had forgotten the con
versation Jbhat bad immediately suggested
it. lie arose from his seat, and opening a
cabinet in the room, brought back a small
box. It contained a bracelet of hair with
an inexpensive clasp, and locket.
"When we were in Paris," he said, "I
had the bracelet made out of Myra's hair
and mine woven together ; she has the
companion one. This tiny coil of geld in
the clasp was cut from the baby's head,
then but three months old. It must have
been some lingering love that made Myra
still keep the bracelet like this, which she
were constantly. What is the matter,
Hilten ? Yeu are as white as death.' '
" Nothing. Is your wife's picture in the
locket ?"
"Yes, you see hew beautiful she was?"
"I see mere thau that," said Hilten,
"and yet I dare net tell you what I
hope. Will you give me one little hour, te
szeif "
"If what?"
" Onljtene hour I will be back then."
"Step!" Mr. Hilten cried, shaking
with excitement.
But his nephew was gene. Hoping,
fearing, net knowing what te hope or fear,
Mr. Hilten watched the clock until the
hear should be ever. He walked up and
down, tried te read ; he lived ever again
that past, whose remorseful memory had
been se vividly recalled. With Myra's
picture before him, he thought ever again
of that wild, fierce love that had been his
bappinesss and his blight.
Why was I net calm, reasonable, as
became my years and mv position !" he
asked himself bitterly. " Why did I give
a boy's love te a woman who had lived in
society and respected all its requirements?
I lived an idle life Myra the one around
us. .Where is Hilten? What can he
knew ? What has he discovered ? Only
three minutes gene, and it seems a day
since he was here."
But before the hour was ever Hilten re
turned. In his eagerness te question him
Mr. Hilten did net notice that be came
through the drawing room te the library,
where he waited, leaving the deer a little
open.
" Where have you been ?" 3Ir. Hilten
asked.
" Te procure this !" Hilten answered
gravely, placing in his uncle's hand the
duplicate te the bracelet en the table.
The same braid of sunny-brown hair,
with here and there some raven black
streaked with gray ; the same small clasp
with a wee coil of baby curl under the
glass: tbe same lettering tee Geerge
and Myra twined together with fantastic
scroll and 'twists. Fer several minutes
there was deep silence. The old man
could net speak, and the yeuns one would
net break in upon what he felt te be sacred
emotion. At last, lifting his head, Geerge
Hilten asked: "Dees Myra live? Can
she forgive me ?"
" It is years since she died." Hilten an
swered, " but in Heaven she has surely
forgiven you. She never .spoke of you te
your child but in words of respect and
affection, though she always spoke of you
as dead."
"My child! De you knew my child?"
"I knew and love her. De you net
guess, Uncle Geerge, where I saw that
bracelet whose duplicate I recognized at
once, whose face is a living copy of the
one in your locket c Must I tell you that
the child Mrs. Willet rescued from poverty,
and adopted for her own, is my cousin and
your daughter?"
"Ada Smith?"
"Smith is the name that her mother
thought most probably would best con
ceal her identity and Ada is the name of
Mrs. Willet's only child who died iu in
fancy." "But why have you net brought her te
me?" asked Mr. Hilten with almost a sob
in his voice.
And as he spoke the deer which Hilten
had left ajar opened, and across the
threshold stepped a tall, beautiful girl,
with sunny brown hair and large blue
eyes, who waited timidly until her father
came quickly te meet her.
"Anna!" he said softly. ' "Can.this be
my baby my wee daughter ? It must be,
for it is my Myra, who has net grown old
and gray, as I have, but lived iu perpetual
youth. My child, I wronged your mother,
but have sorrowed and repented for that
wrong. Can you fergive me ?"
The tears were falling fast from Anna
Hilten's eyes, aud her voice was trembling
with sobs as she said :
"My dear father!"
That was all, but as Geerge Hilten
folded his child in his arms he knew he
was forgiven, and for him at least there
might be happiness in making ethers
happy. Geed Mrs. Willet mourned and
rejoiced at once ever her own less and her
adopted daughter's geed fortune, but con
soled herself with the thought that Ada
must llavejleft her te be Hilten's wife, and
after all they would still be neighbors.
But she would' net give up until after a
most brilliant wedding, and Geerge Hilten
only welcomed his daughter te her home
when he also gave tender greeting te
Hilten's wife.
Editers'and .Reporters.
One of the Veterans Tells the Children Seme
Facts About Them.
M. Halstead's " Tales for Little Felks."
A few days age I premised te tell you
something mere about reporters. Yeu
have learned already what easy times
they have ; but often theso who have the
best chances in the world de net seem te
appreciate this fact,-and sometimes a re
porter gets this way and thinks his salary
ought te be raised. Se he speaks te the
editor about it. Editors arc very liberal
men.
Many of them de net think any mere
of a dollar than some men de of their
lives, but they knew that if the reporters
were paid tee much they would -save their
money and buy the paper, and then the
editors would have te be like the Chinese
they would have te go. Se in self, pre
tectum they have te keep the salaries of
the reporters at 85,000 or 80,000 a year.
They hate te de tins but self-preservation
is the first law of editors as well as of na
ture. Many editors preserve themselves
se well that the reporters never buy them
out.
But editors are kind-hearted. Mr, Dana,
of the New Yerk Sun, once heard that a
horse which had been very fast, but which
everybody thought played out, was going
te be sold at auction by his master.. Se
he sent around and bought the peer horse
for $4,000. The next summer he put him
in a bigrace, "just for fun," everybody
said. There were a great many noted
horses in this race and men bet large sums
of money en them, Mr. Dana's horse'
only bringing $Lin 850 peels. But he wen
the race and all the money that was bet.
This is called "paralyzing the peel box."
Se you see that the fairies are kind te
these who de geed.
Seme geed stories arc told about report
ers. Once a young man who had gradu
ated at Harvard college, and w.is a splen
did scholar in baseball and rewiug.carae te
a large Western city and hired out te be a
reporter. The next day the editor sent
him te an inquest. He came b-ick te the
office at night with enough- manuscript te
make a book.
The editor gave this te an experienced
reporter and said "Cut that down te a
stickful." After a while he went ever te
where the experienced reporter was sitting
and said : " Hew did that new duck get
along with theinqnest?" "Oh," said the
experienced reporter, "he get everything
except the verdict." And then' the ether
reporters that were sitting around langhed
heartily, but the editor only let drop a few
words of tropical warm tn ana aiscuargea
the new reporter who was very much
surprised te see that the paper continued
te come out regularly after he had left it
te its fate.
New reporters always tell everybody
that they are "journalists," but the old
ones call them deckhands. New report
crs always think they knew everything,
and in some emces it is customary te put
a dish of salt en anew reporter's desk.
I The salt is sometimes sent through the
mails. This is a delicate way of telling
him he is tee freak. Reporters never like
te hurt anybody's feelings. Once an edi
tor in Cincinnati hired a reporter in Chica
go te de some work for hk paper. After
awhile the reporter forget te send any
thing about an. important matter, which
made tbe editor very angry. Se he sent a
dispatch te the reverter, saying : "Yeu
are discharged. Why did you get left en
that murder? Answer." When the re
porter read this he laughed te himself and
said : "I wonder if that old plum
thinks he can get the best e me." Se he
wrote all about the matter, and closed by
saying he had been discharged because he
disliked te be connected with a paper that
allowed itself te get scooped. It took
1,850 words te say this, and, as it was
sent by telegraph, the Cincinnati editor
had a pretty big bill te pay. But it
taught him never te ask for explanations
by telegraph again, and that Chicago re
porters were pretty liable te keep up with
the precession.
REMARKABLE PRECOCITY.
Mesle la a Child Uader Six Years of Age.
New Yerk Times.
A rather remarkable phenomenon in the
way ofyeuthful precocity is developed in
the pefsen of Frank Merris-Witraark, the
little son of Marcus Witmark, of Ne. 403
Weft 4th street. Frank will be six years
of age enthe3th of July next. He is a
bright little fellow, with large, twinkling
eyes, a rather dark complexion and black
hair. He is fend of asking questions, and
seems possessed of a wonderful power of
comprehension and a most rcmarkabie
memory. He had been te school only
three days of his life, and has net even
mastered the' alphabet. He comes of a
musical family, but no attempt has ever
been made te teach him a note of music.
Notwithstanding this fact, the little
fellow will give the names of upward
of 300 pieces of music, after having once
seen them, upon beieg shown a page of
the notes. He stands by the side of his
11-year-old brother as the brother plays the
piano, and turns the music for him when
the botten of the page is. reached as cer
rectly as a professor of music. A Timet re
porter visited the residence of Mr. Wit
mark last evening and witnessed the
child's performances. Taking a piece of
music from tbe middle of a large pile en
the piano, the reporter opened it in the
centre, turning tbe pages back se that the
child could net possibly see the illuminat
ed cover and thus gain a elue te the title
by this means. A page of the musie was
then Bhewn te Frank, who, after simply
glancing at the notes, piped out in Hi?
beyise voice, "Beccaccio March." His
answer was correct, and he was equally
correct in telling the names of about
fifty ether pieces which were presented
te him in the very 'same manner.
They included all kinds or music, from
operatic selections te sentimental ballads
and comic songs. The rapidity with which
he made his answers was astonishing.
'tNew, turn some of the music' upside
down," said the father, "you will find
that be will recognize it as quickly as he
has these." Selecting the " Blue Danube
Waltz " the reporter presented a page of
the notes in an inverted position te the
boy, and his eye scarcely rested en thorn
before be told tbe title of tbe piece. This
Rxnnriment: wan reneated with about '
twenty selections, and in every case the j
answer was rapid and correct. It is very ,
doubtful if any professor ei music could
recognize a selection without running ever
a few bars of the music, but this five-year- j
old boy, who knows nothing of the art, ,
and cannot tell pne note from another, re ,
qegnizes the notes belonging te any piecj
that be has once seen or beard played in
stantaneously. Although many persons j
have visited him since his power became .
known, nobody has as yet attempted satis
facterily te explain tbis intuitive knewl-
edge.
When these experiments were cenclud
ed Frank's brother, Isidore, himself only
11 years of age, but a very geed musician,
took bis seat at tbe piano and played a i
selection from "II Trovatore." Frank
steed behind him and turned the music I
whenever the end of a page was reached I
or rather he indicated the time te turn, t
for his little hand could only just reach '
the bottom of tbe sheet when he steed en .
tip-tee. He did net fail once te indicate
the proper time for turning the page, and
this experiment was successfully repeated
with half a dozen selections. In some .
of the pieces Isidore played false notes
occasionally, and Frank's acute ear in '
variably detected them, a fact which he
m.,i i CL-tJl,., oi-e...i I
te his father and muttering: "False,"
After having shown what his son could tie,
ueua .uwnu vj ."'"s " wva.j .u..u
Mr. Witmark turned bis attention te giv
ing the reporter a short history of Frank,
of whom he is naturally proud, and whom
be leeks upon as destined te prove the
greatest musical genius in the world.
While his father was talking about him
the little fellow sat in a high arm-chair
kicking his feet, but listening intently te
every word and wearing a pleasant ex
pression ' en his tinj face. "It
was about six months age, said
Mr. Witmark, " that we discovered this
singular faculty in Franky. Isidore was
arranging some of the music in his book
and Frank was watching him from a high
chair in which he steed. As Isidore turned
the pages Frank would point te them and
name the pieces. Isidore told me of this,
and I determined te test ray little boy. I
took some of the music, and, showing him
only the notes, he told me the name of
piece after piece in the twinkling of an
eye. I was astonished, and when I told
some of my friends they would net believe
me. I invited them te come and see for
themserVes, and since then we have had
company nearly every night te see Frank
and wonder at his powers. It is only a
few days age that we discovered that he
could turn the musie for his brother. A
week age Monday I sent him te school for
the first timeand en that day I took the
advice of many of my friends and went te
see S. R. Well & Ce., tbe phrenologists,
about him. They asked me te bring him
te the store and en the following day I did
se. Mr. Sizer, the phrenologist of tbe
establishment, examined tbe boy's head
and told me he had a wonderful faculty
for music. ' In him,' he said ' you bave
combined tbe genius of Auber, Liszt, Mo
zart and Meyerbeer.' 'Mr. Sizer gave me
several directions about his diet, and I
came home determined n8t te ht him go te
schoelfaain for a few years at leaet. Yes
terday we had his photograph taken for
Mr. Sizer. If the boy lives and there
never was a healthier child than he is new
I shall educate him strictly with a view
te his musical abilities."
