J "DUTCH Y." j Ho oaiiHj to the ward one evening aloue, a pathetic figure, his thick, yel low hair crupped off at ills shoulders. His blue eyos were full of pain and a cough racked his frame. A battered violin case was tightly clasped In hi arms. He was very clean but shabby. For several days he lay partially unconscious while pleuro-pneumonla ran its course. Ho did not ravo in delirium, but sung softly German folk songs, checked by couching spells, or pl-iyed upon an Imaginary violin. Ho was put In a private room across from the nurse room. With returning consciousness he asked pitifully for his beloved Instru ment The doctor said It would do no harm If he had It besWlo him and M!ns Stone, the hood nurse, brought It up from the custodian's otllce. Ho gave a cry of joy and cuddled It In his arms. He slept with his arms about It, caressed and talked to it lovingly wheu ho was awake. He wws very young. A few days after ho wns admitted a large, course, blonde woman, with per oxide of hydrogen tresses, called to Inquire nlxut him. Phe heorep jrir rulous and Mlaa Stone learned that alio was one of tho aniu.ens m " The Blue-Stocking" company playing at ono of the thrrrtres. "Dutchy," she said, "la a big fool, hut. I was a bigger one when I married him." She Uxiked ten or twelve years older than he. Sho'rhcwed gum vig orously. "I!e used to play lu concerts In Ber lin," she went on, "and some one told him he could make lots of money In Amierica and ho was fool enough to believe it. So ho come to N'Yark. I was dancln' In a hall on the Bowery and he got a place In the orchestra. He went daffy over hie and followed me around until I married him to git rid of htm." F4ie burst Into boister ous laugh. "Ho ain't good for nothing but bis music. I guess he's all in tills time, ain't he, nurse? Well, so king." She went away humming "It's a SJiarne, a Measly Shame," and was Joined in the corridor by a burly fel low In loud clothes. Vhn "Dutchy" recovered consci ousness he asked whether his "vifo" hid eonro to see him. Upon being told that sho liad called his pale face glowed and he paid, softly, "She ist so ferry goot, meln vlfe. und so hos- oo-tlfnl, nlcht wahr? She 1st so vot you call him? smart. I'nd I luf her more even as my violin." with a wist. ful smile. Then he ratted It and car. essed It as though he would tell it not to mind.

"Du:.chy" would take her coarse, fat hands between his long, thin, white one3 and imprint a kiss' first on one nnd then on the other looking up at her dumbly, with ador ing eyes. The contrast between his thin, refined, sensitive face nmi her coarse, painted chevks and starlnir blue eyes was no greater than be tween tne two souw Then "Bill." the ex-prlsse fighter, would clap poor "Dutchy" on the back and send him Into a coughing spell whinh lasted for ten minutes. While "Gladys" and "Bill" talked of "skits" and "turns" and "specialties," "Dirtehy." among his pillows, listen ed quietly. "Bill" sometimes address ed the woman as "Me dear," and then "Dutchy" would turn away his face a moment and draw his violin closer, softly caressing Its strings. He became able to leave his bod at last, but strength returned slowly. They said his heart was weak and though there was no organic trouble, a shock or strain would stop its boat ing. He was the host of patients and treated tho nurse with quaint old fashioned courtesy. One Sunday after noon he begged permission to play a little iiKn his violin. Miss Stone hes itated, knowing there Is nothing more torturing to nervous ears than a violin badly played. He said he would piny softly, with his door closed, and at length she gave her consent. Return ing ten minutes later from the ofllee, the strain of Schumann's "Tramerel," played by a master hand, reached her music-loving ears. She opened "tu.chy's" door and went In. When, later, f he was aroused by the pone pons voice of the superintendent of nurses, who stood In the doorway, she awoke as from a dreamt "What Is all this?" demanded that majestic lady In- Imperious tones. "This must bo stopped nl onoe. I am surprised" But &he went no further for behind her came the voice of Dr. Strangely, the superintendent of the' hospital. "Pardou be, Miss Hampden, but this is exactly what I desire for my neu rotic patients. Such music Is bettor than medicine. I congratulate you. Miss Stone, on discovering such a genius." The majestic lady walked hoavlly away, her noso in the air. Thereafter every Sunday afternoon there was music In that ward. Pa Morula from other parts of tho hospi tal clustered about the corridor door. Fractious ones became manageable. Impatient nurses became moro toler ant of unreasonahlo whims nnd fancies.

Tho day before tho date of the affair a letter came for him. Miss Stone carried It to him whero ho sat on the fire-escape, his beloved violin In his arms. An hour later the boy brought from tho office a legal-looking envelope ad dressed to "Dutohy," which he said had been overlooked when distribut ing tho mall. Tho nurse found him In tho pame place. Both arms were clasped about his violin, his cheek resting against it. She touched his forehead. It was very cold. As she lifted his wrist a paper fell from his lifeless lingers.

Why should state candidates bo defeated bocunso of what has occurred In a single city? If the sins of a few were to be visited upon the party when could It ever be Biur coRsful?
