Whui the three were beyond hearing,
th? telgiajiher said:
"Xed Ames is coming homo nt last,
and hie couldn't do better than come a-s

There was no disist'iiting voice. It
was 'the opinion of nil present that Ned
Ames was butt, r dead than alive.
It !nu.t he admitted that the young
m an ha I done much to justify Hiis con
demnation. Ills hoyhoo'l had been dil
igently employed In gutting out of one
peape 'Into another. At twenty he was
a drunkard; a year later he narrowly
escaped th penitentiary. Then he lied

Jislon. Rumor had loc.i'ted him in a
dozen pri-sons, and had accused him of
every cn'iine in the calendar. No one
lioped to hear any good of 'him except
lils lrro'ther. a woman beautiful in spirit
whose children should have been in
capable of evil.
"Junt What did the telegram say,
Hnry?" msked one of those who had
witnessed the scene 'Which has been
described.
"He dlrd In Boston, of diphtheria."
responded the undertaker. "His brother
Frank was with hl.m mt the hist."
'How'd I-Vamk find him?"
"The teh gram doesn't say. The body
Will be here on the boat tomorrow.
Frank 'Is coming wiith It."
Frank Ames was Ned's elder brother.
He livtid In Roiston, and wtia so prosper
ous Wuait it was even reported thait lis
liad sent money home. Citainly he
r.pemt It lavishly wh"ii he visited WH
listort In the niimmw. His parents were
proud of Ihilm, but th'?y lovl Ned's de
graded nii'tnory beliter than the living
presence of the otlwtr. Thu.s you may
know 'true love; that R Is thrown away.
Ned's funeral was very Impressive.
There were a hundred reasons why It
must be so. First, there wan the mys
tery which hud surrounded the young
man. "Would any record of his five
years' wandering come to light beside
his coffin? Then there was great curi
osity to hear what the minister, Rev.
Kllot Warren, would suy. To speak at
the funeral of such a timn ns Ned Ames
Is always dilllcult. If good alone could
be spoken of the dead there would not
be much to say In this case. Rut be
yond these mere generalities was a
special dllllculty 'far deeper, far more
painful. Ned Ames' name had been con
nected with a sorrow which had broken
Kliot Warren's heart and had made his
lialr as white as snow In the early au
tumn of his life.
That was the other Willlston mys
tery.' What had become of Ned Ames?
What had become of Charlotte War
ren? One of tltose questions had been
answered, at lenst, In part. Nobody
expected an answer to the other. There
tea h f fiji --ftsr
hivK i h fi mm ' V
THE
Narrow Hods?
was never a disappearance more com
plete than Charlotte Warren's. A
pretty girl who "didn't mean any
harm," who "would have been quiet
enough If her mother hud lived to look
after her;" those were the comments
which Charlotte's conduct had excited
duriiiK her last few years at home.
And so kindly was the feelhiK behind
the words, that when the secret came
out, when the Kill's absence from home
could no loiiKer be explained by any
supposition that did not blast her name,
there was no one who had the heart to
claim a prophecy fullllled.
Gossip had wearied Itself with that
mystery. The girl was not dead. She
had written to her father, and had
bested hhn to forget her. He had
exhausted lijs resources In the endeavor
to find her, and had failed. Cpoii whom
should the blame fall'.' At tirst there
was mention of jouiik Dr. Robert Max
well, lie had seemed to be smitten
with the sill, and had left town rather
suddenly about the time of her disap
pearance. I !ut he had returned, and
had cleared himself of suspicion. His
temporary absence had been easily ex
plained. Though Charlotte hud left
behind her what mljrht be called a con
fession, it was so viiKtie as to h ave even
the sin Itself In doubt. There were
some of the townspeople who stoutly
maintained that the alrl had run away
to Ro upon 'the staR.'. Hut when all the
evidence had been discussed a thousand
limes, Willlston rendered a verdict that
Xed Ames knew somethiiipr ubout It.
Charlotte had smiled upon him In spite
of his disgrace: and her disappearance
succeeded his fliyht by less than two
months.
In view of these facts, nn address by
Rev. Eliot "Warren beside the cotlln of
Ned Ames should bo worth hearing.
Would his plea Tor the forgiveness of
the sinner ring hollow unrt false?
Would lie dare to openly condemn,
when he knew it hat everyone within
sound of his voice would be thinking of
lids daughter?
The Ames house was crowded, though
I It was so large as to hold nearly half
r.iie pnpul.ntion of the town. The choirs
of the orthodox and Unitarian churches,
united for this most exceptional occa
sion, were stationed in the hall. Mr.
Warren had not come. A whisper ran
about ithat he had been unable, at the
last moment, to make up his mind to it.
This most interesting rumor was set at
f -h-
Ames Alive."
rent presently by the n ws that he was
coming through the yard. Willi him
were ills younger daughter, Anna, and
Dr. Maxwell. TOie ii-ee.it anil innee
ment of the ongai,vmeiiit of u'.ies.' two
had been received in stidii a way as to
prove that the old suspicions really had
been laid at rest.
Samuel Ames stopped Ir. Maxwell In
the hall, while ithe junior, with his
daughter, entered tihe parlor.
"Mother hopes you've (thought better
about thai," said 'thi old man, speaking
of his wife by the usual endearing
term. "I hope you'll let her see him,
if you think he Jie wouldn't he too
much changed."
His tone was indescribably palihn'.lc,
conveying another sorrow than his
own. His eyes had that peculiar
appearance of excessive dryness
noticeable in New Kngland people
when 'they mourn, as If the ra-ee had
seen so much trouble that generations
long since gone, where there Is no such
tilling, had used up nil lis Mtock of tears.
"1 can't permit It," said Mie young
doctor, firmly. "You muslt think of dho
great danger It would Involve. Al
though the codin Is metal-lined, I ad
vised you against a public, funeral.
I'm sorry to grieve Mrs. Amea, but you
know I told her all about 'this yester
day morning when your son's body was
brought here."
"Couldn't it be done nit the cemetery
where there'll be only us?" pleudcd the
(dd man. "We don't care about Ithe
risk at our age."
"Don't permit Mrs. Ames to go to the
cemetery." rejoined Dr. Maxwell, earn
estly. "It's ias much as her life is
worth on such a day aa this. There's
a terrible wind, and the light snow Is
blowing In clouds. She must not"
"Rut she will," responded Ames. "I
can't prevent her. .She will stand by
her son's grave today. It Is useless to
protest. HutJli!. The service la ubout
to begin."
The voice of the pastor was heard,
and all other sounds ctused,
"Wre commend to Thee, O Lord, tho
body of Thy servant, that, being dead
unito the world, he may live unto Thee;
and whatsoever sin lie may have com
mitted through the frailty of his mor
tal notUTe, do Thou In Thy merciful
loving kindness Wot out forever."
His voice itrembled with the fervency
of his supplication. It wus a prayer
for the forgiveness of sin; and it was
followed by an 'address which proved
to every one Who heard It that the
sidrlt of perfect forgiveness had de
scended from n high to dwell In the
heart of the speaker.
If there had been no more to mark
the day, surely the words of that good
man would have made it memorable In
Willlston. There was music which
had been the only Influence that had
ever" seemed to turn Ned Amee' eoul
toward higher purposes and the best
promises of Scripture; a hurt prayer,
and then the collln was borne out to tae
hearse. Mrs. Ames followed It, lean
ing upon her husband's arm und her
son's. Frank Ames a ia.ll. Mark and
rather huiuWome man, with a deeply
furrowed brow seemed to be much
moved. Indeed, he showed more grit f
than ell her of Ida parents.
Few followed the hearse to the ceme
tery. It was a hitter day. Dr. Max
well openly advised that only those men
should go whose presence was abso
lutely necessary. As he was not one of
these, he t-niphasiKed his own advice by
refraining from the ordeal. He In
sisted upon taking Anna Warren to her
home, and he exhausted much per
suasion upon :her faiJber, who was obdu
rate and would brave the weather.
The grave had been dug 'through the
soil whioh Ithe cold had turned to s'tme.
Into this "narrow house" the eottln was
lowered, though Mrs. Ames had fallen
upon her knees In the piww .to beg for
a last look In her son's face. Saanuel
Ames would have yielded, violating a
direct promise which he had given to
Dr. Maxwell, hut Frank, thoug'h terri
bly excited by this painful scene, pre
served his coolness sullieiently to con
trol the course of events, until a new
and surprising influence changed all.
A sitranger liad been observed among
the little party in the cemetery. He
was a man of middle uge, plainly
dressed, and he seemed to kmv.v no one
excej. t a boy named Horace Riddle,
with wihom he stood apart. The boy
came or one of the poorest families In
the tow n and was known as a ne'or-do-well,
which facts made his companion
of less interest. No one g ive him more
than a pat-i:ig glance.
Hut just as the coilin' touched the bot
tom of the grave this man stopped for
ward. "I sincerely ask your pardon," he
said, "for interfering in a matter with
which 1 have no right to concern my
self; but If It is at all practicable, !
would advise doing as this good lady
requests."
There was that In his tone which ex
cited a dreadful curiosity. It was so
evident that he held something In re
serve. "Why?" cried a half dozen men at
once. ,
"Recause," said the stranger, "this
boy Informs me that he saw Kdwnrd
Ames alive in this town yesterday."
The buy instantly spoke up and con
firmed this extraordinary statement.
it is needless to describe the conster
nation which these words caused. Men
lost control of themselves. The Collin
was rudely drugged out of the grave.
Rev. Mr. AVarren and Frank Ames
pleaded in vain for reasonable investi
gation. Everybody else counseled the
immediate opening of the coilin. And
the strangest part of the whole situa
tion was that Horace Riddle's word was
not worth a penny in the town. If he
had told his story without the backing
of this mysterious stranger, nobody
would have listened.
Seeing that nothing could be done to
quell this excitement, and that Mrs.
Ames' agitation was rapidly approach
ing the point where human nature
would endure no more, the pastor gave
his function to the opening of the cof
fin, he himself assisting.
The outer wooden lid was easily re
moved. There was a loud cry from
those who were bending over the collln.
The metal sheath was revealed, and a
glance showed that it had been cut and
wrenched.
"We shall find no body here!" cried
one of the men.
At the same moment three others
lifted the metal lid which wus scarce
ly fastened at nil.
"Yes: There's a body here. He's
here, poor fellow I" exclaimed he who
had spoken before.
The body was covered with nn ordi
nary white sheet. It was gently with
drawn, revealing the face of one who,
through 'the frailty of her mortal
nature, had transgressed, but had come
timiie at last the face of Charlotte
Warren.

"Daniel Rochet," which Sardou gave to
the Comedie Franealse after his nomi

Instead. Hence the anger of J! me.
Bernhardt. When the actress and the
author met the former passed on the
other fide, the latter pulled his hat
down over his eyes. F.ach murmured
something not at all complimentary to
the other.
Then Sarah Bernhardt left the Com
edie Franealse, went to America, where
she made her lirst triumphal tour, and
returned to France. 1'poii her arrival
In Paris she entered Into negotiations
with Raymond Deslande, manager ot
the Vaudeville. She a.sked nothing
better than to play there. But what
should she play? She did not wish to
return to classical roles; she wanted an
entirely new play, which should bring
out all her qualities.
"There Is only one man who sail
write the play you want," eta id Des
lande. "That man Is Sardou."
"Sardou!" cried the etress. "Such
