YUSSOUF.

A stranger enme one night to Yussouf's tent, Saying: "Uehokl one outcast and in dread, Against whose life the bow of power is bent, Who flies and hath not where to lay his head! i come to thee for shelter and for food, To Yussouf, called through all our tribes 'The Good.' "

"This tent is mine," said Yussouf, "but no more Than it is God's. Come in and be at peace. Freely shalt thou partake of all my store As I of his who buildeih over these Our tents his glorious roof of niglit and day And at whose door none ever yet heard 'Nay.' **

Bo Yussouf entertained his guest that night And, waking him ere day, said: "Here is gold. My swiftest horse is saddled for thy flight. Depart before the prying day grow bold." As one lamp lights another nor grows less, Bo nobleness enkindleth nobleness. Shat inward light the stranger's face made grand, Which shines from all self conquest. Kneeling low, fie bowed hia forehead upon Yussouf s hand, Sobbing: "O sheik, I cannot leave thee bo! I will repay thee. All this thou hast done Unto that Ibrahim who Blew thy sonl" "Take thrice the gold," said Yussouf, "for witli thee Into the desert, never to return, My one black thought shall ride away from me. Firstborn, for whom by day and night I yearn, Balanced and just are all of God's decrees. Thou ant avenged, my firstborn. Sleep in peace I" —James Russell Lowell.

The First Impulse

I BY JULES LA MAITRE. |

j> An Eastern Story of Two Men <s J> Noted For the Good They X\ If "Did" «

Turiri was a wealthy citizen of Bag dad who was far and wide renowned for his many virtues. In assisting the poor with his money he was so gen erous that he had to deprive himself of the luxuries of life, and the patience with which he listened to the laments of the suffering and cheered them with kind words earned him the love and admiration of his fellow citizens.

He bore with resignation all the pet ty annoyances which accompany man through life in an almost unbroken chain. He was truly tolerant and never waxed augry when others did not share his opinions, a rare and diffi cult virtue indeed, for there is no human being who does not wish in his innermost heart that all other human beings might he his inferiors and yet in his likeness.

He was a faithful husband, and this in spite of his wife being of a quarrel some nature. He bore with her ill temper and seemed not to mind at all that she was no longer young and beautiful. Finally his unselfishness was so great that, though himself the author of numerous poems and dramas, he rejoiced over the success of his rivals and proved his joy by giv ing them sincere words of encourage ment and rendering them all kinds of services. In brief, all his life was made up of mercy, gentleness, loyalty, unselfishness, and he was considered a saint—a chivalrous saint.

In spite of all this he showed a lack of that calm serenity which usually illuminates the face of saintly per sons. His features had the suffering expression of one who has fallen a prey of wild passions or secret sor rows, and frequently, in the very mo ment of doing some kind act, he would cast down his eyes. Was it to collect himself or to avoid looking into peo ple's faces? No one could tell.

Now, there lived not far from Bag dad an ascetic by the name of Maitre ga. He was a miracle worker, and the pious from all parts of the world flock ed to him to be helped by his prayers. Having renounced the world and all its usages, Maitrega had dug a cave into the bank of the river and become a holy man, whose prayers were always heard at the throne of Ormuzd. With his bony, hair covered arms uplifted to heaven he stood before his cave as un wearied as a tree stretching its branch es upward, so that the swallows, de ceived by his immobility, took Maitre ga for an old willow and built their nests on his shoulders. His face was tanned brown by the sun and was black with dirt, and his long beard and tangled hair blew about him like the wind beaten grass blades on the ram parts of an old castle ruin. And so he had lived for many years, for such had been his will.

One day he overheard a pilgrim say- Ing: "Turiri appears like an embodiment of Ormuzd. If he only had the power to do what he likes, misery would sure ly disappear from the -earth." Maitrega's form became more rigid. It was apparent that the ascetic had entered into communion with Ormuzd. A few moments passed in silence, then he said to the pilgrim: "I cannot compel Ormuzd to grant to Turlri the power to do everything he wishes, for in that event he would be equal to God. Ormuzd has, however, granted that beginning from tomorrow at all occasions the first wish enter tained by Turiri shall be immediately realized." "Oh," replied the pilgrim, "this al most amounts to the same. Turiri's first wish at whatever occasion will be like all his other wishes, always gen erous and good. You have announced to me, reverend sir, the happiness of countless human beings. Accept my best thanks." Had Maltrega's beard been less im penetrable the pilgrim might have no ticed an Ironical smile gliding over his petrified lips. A moment later, how ever, the ascetic was again absorbed in deep meditation. , And the pilgrim returned to the city and rejoiced in anticipation of the be neficent miracles through which Turi ri's power undoubtedly would become manifest. The nest morning Turiri on awaken ing happened to throw a gin nee upon bis wife, who was still slumbering at'

his side. All of a suddes his wife, as though driven by some mysterious power, rose, rushed to the window and precipitated herself into the yard, shat tering her skull on the pavement

Turiri left Ms house and soon saw himself importuned by a crowd of beg gars. He did not utter a harsh word to them and was about to distribute alms in his habitual kind way when, lo! all the beggars dropped dead.

Continuing his walk, be met fair Mandenika, one of the most noted courtesans of Bagdad. Eager to gain the wise man's love, she told him the story of her life and tried to persuade him that she was unlike any other wo man of her profession. Tuij§| was moved to pity and was about to ex press to her his sympathy when the woman all of a sudden fell lifeless at his feet.

Arriving in the city, he found that the street which he had to cross was blocked with numerous carriages. Aft er waiting a few moments he began to lose patience, when all at once drivers and horses, as though hit by some mys terious blow, dropped dead to the ground.

He went to the theater and there fell quarreling with the scholar Oarvilaka about some verses which the latter as cribed to Nisami, while Turiri claimed that they were composed by Saadi. Suddenly the scholar uttered a shriek and expired. The play which was performed had a great success and was much applauded by the audience. Hardly had Turiri made up his mind to join in the applause when the au thor of the play breathed his last.

Turiri returned home, terrified at what he had seen, and, thinking him self the cause of all these murders, he killed himself la despair by plunging a dagger into his heart. During the same night died also Maitrega, the ascetic. Both appeared simultaneously before Ormuzd. The ascetic thought in his mind: "How I shall rejoice to see this man judged according to his desert! This man whose hypocrisy was almost as much admired as my virtue as soon as he had power to do what he liked showed his true nature by committing countless crimes."

Ormuzd, however, turned Bmilingly to Turiri and said:

"Welcome, virtuous Turiri. You were truly a good man and my faith ful servant. Enter now into my eter nal peace."

"That's a good joke," said the as cetic, with a sneer.

"Never have I been more in earnest than at this moment," replied Ormuzd and, addressing again Turirl, spoke: "You wished the destruction of your wife because of her ungentleness and homeliness; the destruction of the beg gars because of their annoyance and the repulsive sight they offered; the destruction of the courtesan because of her foolishness and insincerity; of the drivers and their horses for caus ing you an unnecessary delay; of the scholar Carvllaka for disagreeing with you; of the playwright for his being more successful than you. All.these wishes were perfectly natural. The murders with which you were charged by Maitrega were, without your know ing it, the effect of your first wish, that wish which no one is able to com mand. It is quite natural to hate all that is disturbing and obstructing, and it is just as natural to desire the de struction of what we hate. Nature is egotistical, and the name of egotism is destruction. Thus sin and crime take root in the hearts of even the most virtuous, and if mortals had the power of realizing their first involuntary wishes the earth would fast become depopulated. This, Turlri, I purposed to show by your example. But I Judge men after their second impulse only, that impulse which alone is In their power. Without the mysterious gift for which you did not ask and which made your last day so murdex*ous you would have continued to lead a benefi cent existence. It is, therefore, not your nature that I have to consider, but your will, which was good and ever ready to curb nature and to im prove any imperfect work. And for this reason, my dear coworker, I open to you the gates of paradise."

"So far, so good," said Maitrega, "but what reward do you grant to me?" "The same," replied Ormuzd, "al though you only partly deserved it. You were a saint, but you were not a human being unless so through your pride. You succeeded in stifling the first Impulse in your heart, but if all men would live like you mankind would be even faster exterminated than it could be through the fatal pow er granted to my faithful servant Tu riri. Now, I want mankind to exist, as I find pleasure in its sight, which at times Is very beautiful. Even your ef forts, miserable ascetic, were not en tirely devoid of beauty, and therefore I pardon you your foolish error. And thus I receive Turiri into my bosom, because I am just, and you, Maitrega, because I am merciful." "But"—- objected Maitrega. "I have spoken."—Translated From the French For Cleveland Plain Dealer.

"Utah—Brigham H. Roberts!" sang out the clerk. Roberts, pale but self possessed, walked down the aisle to ward the speaker's chair. At the end of the aisle Roberts stood with his hands resting upon the two desks at his right and left.
