Cringly Court
Crlngly Court vu In a state of fer
snaal Not that this Implied a strange
condition, for th sense of ewltement
waa ths only sensation that etlrrrd
the fetid air of the court, and changed
the complexion of Its dirty brink walla
to the Impoverished dwellers within.
Mr. Clancy of No. S whs the .first
to spread the news, as she darted up
the stairs to lnforrd Mrs. Acalrml
bore, and then shuffled o it along
the fire-escape to huskily whisper
through the wlnrto to Mrs. Levilsky.
Then the wireless teleKt.iphy of tje
court flashed the Information to all
the Inhabitants thereof. The co.ee
of It all was that a man was coming
through the court taking names.
What could be his fell de.iiro?
Was he an agent of the police? Vort
likely. But who was the ruiyrit
oughtT Hard telling, according to
Mrs. Clancy, for "the ways of police
la very strange." But It behooved ull
to be submissive, for they had trou
ble enough without the minions of the
law Interdicting them.
Bo when the man called at the
houses In the court, he was met with
ready answers, albeit the faces of his
respondents were pale, and they were
palpably nervous, and what odd ques
tions he asked! Mrs. Atalonl was
sure It must have been a search for
undesirable aliens, so she hastened to
exhibit her husband's naturalization
papers. Mrs. Levltsky met the man's
advent with stoicism, for did not the
police of Russia come less civilly and
at unexpected hours and seasons to
question? And woe betide a refused
answer. But this was "a nice feller.1
As for Mrs. Clancy, she gave glib but
wonderful replies, and at the man's
departure the winked asBurlngly to
herseK.
At the further and of the court the
grimy black wall of a machine factory
seemed to prop a leaning old wooden
relic of a house. The census man
climbed two rwkety flights without a
response, but at the top of the lad-
' der, like stairs to the rooms "beneath
the eaves," he waa met by the quant-
st little figure of a woman. Attired
In an antique styled black brocade,
with a little white lace cap, she look
ed a neat, wholesome picture of the
ancient grandmother. Nor did her
apartment, with sagged floor, slanting
celling and general 111 repair, fall to
consort to her appearance. Tidy as
her figure, yet as ancient in sugges
tion.
The tendered seat was a relief to
his weariness, and the first few ques
tions were answered quietly. But
there la a strange tendency to some
lonely natures, perhaps It Is a search
ing out for sympathy or maybe the de
sire to listen to the recital, e'en
though by themselves, of a cherished
Incident that Impels them to expatiate
on events where the least hinting
mention Is offered. And In this cnae
the dear, tittle, old lady was so allur
ing In her qualntness that he raised
his pencil and listened when she dl
' tressed.
"My name It Is Den I bo de la Ilouril
Ion. Please put In the 'de la' be
cause they belong there. ' I have the
right Tes, I waa born In the France,
My husband waa of the nobility, Ana-
tola Mare de la Boiirillon Ah, he n'ls
a handsome gentleman, so beautiful,
so proud. See, here Is h!s picture!
Was he not beautiful Ah, me! It
Is so sad. You are a young man. Tou
are not mnrrled? Ah, then, perhaps
you do not yet know what it la, the
grand passion!-
"You know, In the France the par
enta make what you call the icatuh.
When Anatole's father raina to .ny
father to arrange the match, ray
father storm. The Bourlllcm wore no
ble, but very poor. My parents w-re
wealthy and bad an eve to a young
. man of equal wealth. Bo my father
forbid Anatola the house. My, how I
cry. They decide to take a voyage
with me to take me away from Ana
tola. But one morning at church, I
meet Anatole and tell him, and he beg
and plead that I shall elope. A good
priest shall marry us, and we shall go
cross the se. I was afraid, but I
Jove bhn and consent at last.
"We. were married and sailed to
tela country. Th. war was In the land,
and times were so hard. There waa
no work for a poor foreign gentleman,
and soon we were very, very poor and
hungry. Anatole waa so sad, and
when alone I cry. One day he eoroe
to me and klaa me and put 1300 In
my hands. I am frightened, but Ana
tole weep with his face in his hands.
And than I know. He has enlist tor
soldier, and this waa what you call
bounty money. The war waa prom
ised to be over soon at once so there
la no danger, and the money would
keep me against he return.
"Ah me, hoar I err. How I wait for
htm to oome hack and all the time I
hear of more and more fighting until
at last I get the word, lie will not
some back. How I prayed to go, too,
but the good priest he scold and tall
me to pray and let the good Saviour
work his wllL Bo here I am, but 1 am
watting for my Anatole. It Is a long
time. Yes, the good government pays
me what you call pension, so I am
comfortable while I wait for my Ana
tole." It waa raining In Cringly Court
when the census man departed, and
the drops would fall on one cheek,
so he brushed them off with his kep
chief as he left tha court. CLARA

A Plume Hunter Wealth.
The death at Herburt La Pralth
and the Inheritance by his son George
of $So.(KJO in catih reveals a most un
usual but highly profitableoccupation.
The elder La Pralth waa a hunter for
the skins of white herons, create of
pelicans, and the glossy many colored
wtngs of the Western grebe. The fav
orite hunting grounds of the plume
hunter were in the tule and alkaline
swamps and lakes In southern Oregon
and he Is known to have been Mghly
successful In evading the laws of two
titates aud In amassing a snug for-'-une
by the illegal sale of the valued
tains.
La Pralth owe told a friend here
that he Mot from ten to twenty birds
each day durlug the nestling season,
aud that eauh white heron represent
ed a urollt of 50 to him. When he
waa unable to secure more than ten
birds In a single half day he went
back tq camp. The huuter shipped
M spoils to New York aud often ac
cornpe.nlrd the trunks, posing as a
conimertl.il traveler
It la a misdemeanor to kfll either
herons, grebes or pullcans In Oregon
and Washington, and there can be no
doubt that the dead man's gun de
stroyed thousands of tho h.iuiiM,u.
plumed birds. - Seattle Ctorreapoed- j
