Maria (his wife).
Molly (their daughter; a child). ,
A Lady (name unknown).
People In the street.
1 Time The afternoon of a bleak De
cember day.
Scene The main shopping thorough
fare of an American city. A crowd
fcloek the side walk In front of a large
drygoods store In whose windows glit
ters a splendid holiday display. A wax
dummy enveloped In brocade and er
mine confronts another In evening
dress of white satin and rose chiffon.
Gorgeous fabric of silk and velvet
drape the sides of the window. These
are all akin In tint; the colors of the
window resemble a cluster of roses,
shading from bride to plush and Jacue
mlnot. In the rear is Been the Interior
of a luxuriously appointed little room;
It Is labeled: "A boudoir," and Is ar
ranged to advertise the prevailing
fashions of furniture and upholstery.
The room Is furnished In rose and
silver. Its dressing-table Is covered
with the elegant conveniences of a
lady's toilet, coBtly In value and dainty
in design. Tall candles of pink wax
lurn In silver sconces at the sides of
the long mirror. The draperies of rich
lace are carefully looped back from the
glass, to avoid contact with the flaming
candles. The mirror reflects the street.
A lady, plainly dressed In black, is
Hrylng to push her way through the
crowd, but Is blockaded by the women
who are studying the show window.
She casts a quick glance between the
ermine and the chiffon dummies, across
the splendors of the rose and sliver
decorations. Her eyes rest upon the
mirror,- and an expression of trouble
crosses her countenance. In the glass
ehe perceives the reflection of two
"Oh, I'm So Sorry for You!'
wretched figures. These are a man
and a woman. They stand upon the
curbstone huddling together; the
iwoman holds the man's arm; both are
thinly dressed and are seen In the
mirror to shiver. The man Is pale
and undersized; he has a consumptive
look; his hands are ci)ld and blue; he
raises a flute to Ms Hps, then puts It
down, and tries to "warm his fingers.
The woman has a delicate face; she
holds out a cap, somewhat timidly or
proudly, as If she shrank from the act.
Now and then a passer drops a nickel
or a penny Into the cap. The woman
removes her other hand from the man's
arm, and wraps his fingers In. her shawl
to warm them.
The Man Cold, Maria? i
, Wife Not so very, Henry. .
'. Husband Tired, girl.
iWlfe-HStandlng hurts me a ;llttle.
But I don't mind.
Husband It Is pretty cold. It comes
hard draggln' you out. If I could
come by myself! Oh, Lord, If I could
get about alone!
Wife Now, Henry! Dear Henry!
Why you know I don't mind It much.
I like to come along with you. I think
It does me good to get the air. Only the
stormy days and you. ain't fit to play
when it storms, yourself. You will
have to give -It up this winter, I'm
thlnkln'.'
Husband I'll take Molly next time.
You're beat out, Maria. Molly she
can take me In tow like a little lady.
She's the smartest of the blood. Molly
Is. I'd feel bad If we shouldn't make
out a Christmas for 'em, this year,
Mafia. Somebody may send a turkey
but that don't go into little stockln's.
Wife If I get another dress to make
over we can manage. Don't you feel
anxious, Henry? That fat customer I
had wears out dreadfully on her side
seams. I calculate she'll need another
cheap wrapper soon.
Husband (more cheerfully) Yes.
That's one thing about It. You can al
ways sew when you can get the Job.
And Molly can tend to me, I guess
we'll manage.
Wife We always have, dear most
always.
Husband That's so, most always.
But we can't afford to talk. Time to
talk Is for rich folks. You'v warmed
my Angers up nicely in your shawl,
girl.' I'll go at once.
The street musician plays.
"How can I bear to leave thee?
One parting kiss I'll give thee,
And then what e'er befalls me .-
I'll go where duty calls me."
Lady blockaded In front of the shop
window starts and stirs.
The musician, reflected In the mirror,
plays on:
"Farewell, farewell, my own true love.
FarewellFare well."
Lady turns her back on the show
window and urges her tvay throug1 1
the crowd toward the man and til
woman. ,In the mirror her 'figure re
places for the moment those of the
Btreet-players. The light of: the pink
candles Is obscured. The dummy In
ermine and the dummy In rose chiffon
exchange ' haughty glances over her
head.
Woman In the Crowd Now, there's
an air about that brocade.
Second Woman Give me the chiffon!
It's the fashionable shade.
First Woman I'll tell my husband he
shan't have any peace till he fits me
up a room like that yonder. He goln'
to begin with the silver hairbrush come
Christmas.
Second Woman (sighing) But then
the children clutter and muss so! Do
you think It would pay for the bother?
I'd rather have that real ermine opera
cloak. It's marked four hundred dol
lars. Henry Holt plays:
"In the beauty of the lilies
Christ was born across the sea
With a glory In Ills bosom
That transllgures you and me."
(Lady with Blghs of emotion stops In
front of the street musician, and silent
ly observes him).
Henry plays: i
"Since he died to make men holy,
Let us die to make men free."
Lady (to herself) I can't stand this!
I suppose the Conglomerate Anti-Pauper
Mission would disown me forever,
but I cannot stand It! (Empties her
purse of Its silver Into the musician's
cap.) As she does so, she withdraws a
nickel coin and says apologetically:
"You see I'm a suburban, and I must
keep a car fare to get to the station.
I'm late to my train now. It's too bad
there Is no more. Oh, I'm sorry for
you!"
The lady hurries away. Maria Holt
looks after her wistfully, as she deftly
turns the silver from the cap Into
Henry's pocket.
Her eyes till. Henry plays and sings:
"Let us dlo to make men free!
For God Is marching on."
Lady, (unexpectedly returning)
Never mind my train. I've given It
up. I can't bear this! I must know
something about you why, what's the
matter? Why, you poor woman! What
ails you?
Maria Holt (bursting Into tears)
Oh, It's the words you said! It's the
words you said! Nobody else for so
long and we have had such a hard
pull! Oh. don't mind me! Oh, I am
ashamed Henry, Henry, I'm ashamed
of myself! I don't know whenever he s
heard me cry before have you, Henry?
But It's the words you said!
Lady (much moved) The words I
said? Oh that! Such a little com
mon human oh, youboor woman!
Henry Holt puts down his flute. His
pinched face works pathetically. He
rolls his eyes helplessly toward Maria.
Then, with the most exquisite motion
by which knight or gentleman could
express reverence or tenderness for
women, the Btreet musician gropes for
the cheek of his wife, and strokes it
with the palm of his blue hand.
A crowd has begun to thicken around
Henry, Maria and the lady; but neither
of the three appears aware of It.
The man caresses his wife as ingenu
ously as if she and he were alone in
the world He shows no consciousness
of the presence of observers
Lady Tell me all about it! Tell me
how it happens. Why ar,e you like
this? . You are Americans
Henry (Interrupting) New England,
born and bred.
Lady You don't look as if you ought
to be doing this. You lqok above beg
ging on the street.
Henry Ma'am?
Maria Oh, madam! Don't you see?
Henry, she don't understand. She
didn't moan It. She ain't that kind of
lady. Madam
Henry Begging?
His face flushes from white to pur
ple. His flute drops to the pavement.
His wife picks it up and wipes It wltlh
her shawl. She speaks in a crooning
ton?.
Maria There, there, dear! She don't
know. She don't understand. Madam!
my husband is a musician. He is not a
beggar. He works hard for a living.
Try it and see all wealthers.
Mania Holt raises herself with dig
nity end with a trembling forefinger
points at her husband's eyes.
Lady Blind?
M air la nods silently.
Lady (overcome) Oh, I beg your par
don. Oh, you poor people! I beg your
pardon with all my heart.
The Street Musician (bowing wish a
fine grace) Madam, .you have it from
mine.
Lady Tell me how It came about
this greait misfortune. Do you mind
telling me? I will try not to hurt your
feelings so stupidly again.
Henry Holt (drawing himself eredt)
Yes, ma'am, I will itell you. It. hap
pened thirty years ago, but It don't
need thirty words to -tell It. Seems to
me, ma'am (smiling) If you'll excuse
me, you're the one that don't see of us
two!
; The street musician lifts his purple
fingers to his slghrtlwss eyes and then,
wtlth a superb gesture, points In silence
to a faded decoraiton pinned upon his
shrunken breast.-'' It is the badge of
the Grand Army of the Republic.
The crowd about tire group has slow
ly Increased. Sliver begins to fall into
the street-player's cap. There? Is a gap
among the women alt the' show window.
Maria Holt looks through this gap.
Her wan eyes mlse themselves to the
ermine opera cloak with instlnablve
feminine eitltienltlon; she glances at tfhe
pink and sliver room. The blind mam's
pale face turns blankly In the same di
rection. To him akme of all the peo
ple before the window its luxurious
display appeals without arousing in
terest. The dummy In ermine and the
dummy in chiffon regard him scorn-
luny. ' 0i
The First Woman In the Crowd It's
a hand organ, I guess. Isn't there a
monkey? I dcite on monkeys.
Second Woman It Isn't a monkey.
It's only a little man with a flute.
Let's move on to ifhe millinery window.
First Woman Watt. I've got ten
cents.
Second Woman I've spent every
cent I've got in the world on that os
fcridhl plume and my Jot trlmmin's.
I've got to borrow of you to got home.
I feel kind of ashamed, too seems so
mean. Let's move along, and they'll
think we didn't see hlm.v
Lady Did you lose your eyesight In
the army?
Hoary Holt (cheerily playing Yankee
Doodle. Finishes the strain conscien
tiously before he speaks) Excuse me,
ma'am, It seems to be silver that's com
ing in. I know It by the note It strikes.
I want to earn what I take. I don't
beg. I am a musician. I used to play
In bands. I've always been fond of
music. Yes, ma'am. I lost my eyes In
the war; one of 'em.
Marka Holt The other followed,
come five years. That was when we
was nrsi mairmea, so i know. I was
young then, a slip of a girl, It came
dreadful hard on us.
Lady Is he quite blind?
iienry i am quite blind. One eye
don't look 4t, they say. Some folks
think I'm shamming, but they're folks
that uont know anything. I got a
piece of a Shell at Antlettim.
Lady But the United States docs not
leave its blind soldiers to be play on
the streets on public sympathy for n
living. What Is your pension? .
Henry (smiling) I don't get the pen
sion for serious disability. What I get
Just about pays our rent. It don't
clothe nor feed us. I don't get a blind
man's pension. But we get along
sometimes quite well. It depends
some on Whether my wife can got a Job.
and then there's the weather. I ain't so
strong as I was before the war. I don't
stand bad weather. I have the pneu
moniaand that's expensive. There's
a hitch about my pension, you see. I
used to think it Would come round.
But we've given up bothering, haven't
we, Maria? ' ..
Maria (apahetleally) Yes, - it only
riles you up and disappoints you. Noth
ing comes of It.
Lady Weren't you honorably' dis
charged? Veteran (proudly) Madam?
Lady Well of course but I mean
Wife It's something about a sur
geon. He died. ... ...
Henry (recovering himself and smil
ing) So he doesn't find 1t convenient
to testify. His testimony Is lacking.
Lady Ah! A flaw In your pension
papers?
Veteran That's about the'slze of it.
Lady (gently) Hard!
Veteran Well, yes. But we're kind
of used to It. It Is hard, though some
times. Lady How many children have you?
Henry (eagerly) There's Molly!
Maria And the two little ones. We
had two older boys. They died. The
drainage was bad where we live. We
tried to save on rent those days. We
don't since.
Lady Do you make a living? Do
you suffer? Have you clothes? A fire?
Food enough? How many battles did
you serve In? Now give me your street
and number. I must look into this
matter. How many battles, did you
Bay?
Veteran (putting his flute down from
his mouth and counting on the Btops
with his cold fingers) Fair Oaks, Mal
vern Hill, Bull Ilun, Antletam. It was
at Antletam I got the shell.
Lady This Is pitiful! It Is not right.
The country patriotic people ought to
do something!
Veteran Oh, folks are kind enough.
I get a turkey most every. Christmas.
Last year we had cranberry sauce and
fixings.
Lady (sotto voce) He gives his
youth, his manhood, his health, his
eyesight for his country, and gets a
turkey and cranberry Bauce on Christ
mas.
Veteran Ma'am, ther"was thirty-five
thousand of us the last time I inquired
I'm only one of the delayed list. Don't
take it to heart so. We're kinder used
to It. Some weeks we get on very
well. It depends so much on the
weather!
Man from the Crowd How do you
know that he ain't one of the fraudu
lent claims? There's been a good sight
more than thirty-live thousand of
them.
Lady I don't know, but I don't be
lieve It; and I can look him up.
Gentleman from the crowd I'll
spare you the trouble. I know the
man. I'm a neighbor of his, in a way.
I teach in his ward. His children come
to my school. I know about the fam
ily. They are honest people. It is all
Just as he says.
Lady I will see you again, ' You
Bhall hear from me. I will remember
and the children! The holidays are
coming along. '
Maria Yes. We do mind It when we
can't make Christmas for the child'
ren. That's the hardest. Now, he
talks about Molly. I don't see how
can let that child go on the street with
him. Her little winter sack's worn to
rags', it's past mending, and I've cut
over all the, flannels I've got. It's no
place for Molly, anyhow, but I ain't
very Btrong. Madam (she whispered)
Lady Oh! (She wrings the woman's
hand).
Henry (mechanically counting on the
stops of the flute) Fair Oaks, Malvern
Hill, Bull Run, Antletam
Lady (extending her hand, for which
the street player gropes) So, good-by,
now. I shan't forget you. Your coun
try hasn't forgotten you, either,
don't believe It!
Veteran (smiling Bllghtly) Don't
you, ma'am?
Lady Well, I don't blame you for
looking that way!
Maria Ma'am, he sings, too. You
ought to hear him sing before? you go.
My husband s a born musician. He
gives his money's worth. You ought
to know about that.
Henry (flattered) Now, madam! My
wife Is so foolish about me. Women
are, you know. (Plays and. sings):
My country, 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty I
Of thee I sing.
Lady, with emotion, turns away
from the singer and dlsappeares In the
crowd. ; . -; '

Triblilafions of
the Armenians
They Are .Detailed by.; King Miller,
Who-Was Born InTbat Country.'
CRUELTY OPTHETLKKSTOTHEM
Life of a Christian Armenian No More
Sacred in the Eyes of a Mussul
man Than Would Ho That
of a Bog.
The recent massacre of Armenian
Christians In Turkey caused a thrill
of horrorall over the civilized world and
compelled Christian governments to
turn their attention to the deplorable
condition of the Armenian people, who
are subjects of the Sultan of Turkey,
King Miller, the Spruce street tailor,
who is the only Armenian in the city,
yesterday related to a Tribune reporter
the condition of his countrymen under
Turkish rule.
The Armenians believe that they are
the most ancient race in existence and
that they are descendants of Japeth.
Their home has been about the foot of
Mount Ararat from time immemorial,
and it Is their firm conviction that their
language is the one God used when
addressing Adam and Eve. Most of
the Armenians are Apostolic Catholics
and their forms of worship are very
similar to those of the Roman Catholic
church to which they originally be
longed. There are about 7,000,000 Armenians
In the country that was formerly Ar
menia, and in the territory adjacent
to it, who are governed by Russia,
Persia and Turkey. In Russia they are
well treated, but In Turkey and Persia
the reverse is the rule, Those residing
In Turkslh territory fare the worst.
Should no Wiped Out.
Christianity will never make any ad
vances in tne east until Turkey as a
nation Is a thing of the past," said Mr.
Miller yesterday. "The Turkish gov
ernment Is the undying foe of Chris
tianity, no matter what its high of
ficials may represent to the contrary.
It is impossible for Christian mission
aries to get among the Turks to preach
the gospel of Christ on account of the
attitude of government and people
toward them.
"The Turkish people have no capacity
for business,, most of which Is In the
hands of the Armenians who have to
colonize In every city where they locate
for mutual protection. Even In Con
stantinople the 200,000 Armenians have
to remain together In one part of the
city to protect their persons and prop
erty.
"A cardinal point in the education
of the lower class of Turks Is the in
stilling of a violent hatred for Chris
tlans, and they believe that it is no
greater offense to kill one of them
than it would be to slay a dog. This
accounts In a great measure for the
freedom with which Christians are
slaughtered on the slightest provoca
tlon.
They Arc Constantly Recurring.
"At least once in every ten years an
outbreak occurs similar to that which
has recently been recorded. I was In
Constantinople when the war between
Turkey and Russia was being fought.
Duralng that struggle the Turks found
opportunity to put to death hundreds
of thousands of Bulgarian Catholics
and many Armenians met a like fate,
Could all the details be made clear the
world would stand aghast at the seem
lngly Incredible deeds of cruelty these
blood-thirsty and fanatical mussulmans
tiave perpetrated.
"Besides the regular Turkish army
there Is a body of religious fanatics
known as the 'Bashi-Bazouks,' who fol
low in the wake of the soldiers who
are engaged In battle. The Christian
who escapes the regular 'soldiers is
put to the sword by the 'Bazouks,' who
believe they are engaged in a high and
holy service. They would exterminate
the entire Christian people If they
could.
"The Turkish prisons are full of Ar
menlans who are incarcerated on the
slightest provocation. They have no
redress and are frequently allowed to
remain there and die.
Arrested in Constantinople.
"I went to Constantinople seven years
ago to visit menus and was at once
thrown Into prison, and had not some
Influential men been Interested In my
case there Is no telling how long I would
have been compelled to remain there,
The fact that a man Is an American
citizen affords him no protection In
Turkey. He would be consigned to
prison for as trivial a reason as being
an Armenian.
"The latter are not allowed to carry
weapons of any kind, and their homes
are rigidly Bearched at intervals for
evidence that any are stored. The
Turks go armed at all times and thus
have the Armenians at their mercy, for
the latter has nothing with which to
defend himself In case of an attack.
Taxes of all kinds are imposed on
the Armenian. A father has to pay a
tax of $1.50 a year for each son, and
further tax of $4 for every $100 that he Is
worth. Many of the poorer classes are
unable to pay the sums required by the
government, and to prevent outbreaks
the wealthy Armenians subscribe sums
to pay the taxes of those too poor to
do so.
' The Pending Investigation.
,. "The investigation that Is about to be
made into the latest outrages will, I
think, amount to very little, for the
Turkish government will take every
opportunity to keep the real facts from
coming to the attention of the com
missioners. More exact information
would be obtained by sending men Into
the country who know the language
and customs of the people and who
would gather facts by actual conversa
tion and contact with those who have
been made to suffer so deeply.
"It is time that Christian people
everywhere awake to the terrible condi
tion of affairs that exists in the east,
and by united action exterminate a
government that calmly allows Its sub
jects to murder the minister of Ood on
the altar, the father while protecting
his family, and who condemn the
flower of the womanhood of a people
to a fate worse than death."

He has had his last waits; his last dip in
the sea;
He has spooned his last spoon with his
charming Marie;
Ho has vowed his last vow; he has kissed
his last kiss; '
He has drained his last dregs of a fort
night's brief biles.
The landlord has taken his last dollar In,
The waiters surround him with many a

As he sadly distributes his last dimes to
