THE RED DEATH MASK A Venetian Legaadb About the middle of the seventeenth fteatnry there lived in Venice a certain haughty Duke, so rich and powerful as to be feared by friend as well as foe ; for that was a period of constant murder and assassination, and a mere whim, or un­ just suspicion, was often sufficient to bring the deadly poison or secret stil­ etto to bear upon those supposed to be in highest favor. It was the custom of this nobleman to give costly banquets in the great hall of his palace; but there was always one thing to mae the festivity of the occasion --the constant dread of some secret agent of death. It was known that of those who attended those feasts some one or more generally died shortly, and not infrequently in a manner to lead to the suspicion of secret poison ; >n4 this knowledge filled the minds of all with dread, though none dared remain away on this account, lest what they L most feared should happen through the () anger of him who was powerful enough f to reach them anywhere in Venice, And what tended still more to mystery s and fear on these oooasiona of festivity was the presence of the red mask. Next to the loid of the feast, cm his left hand, always sat a silent, mysterious figure, in • area domino, with a blood-red mask concealing every feature No one oould say who he was and only oonjeotnre why he was there. His faoe was never seen --his voice was never heard. He ate and drank with the rest, but never spobe. Before the guests separated he always rose, gave his hand to the noble host, and then went slowly, solemnly and silently around the table, shaking hands wfith each. This done, he glided oat of the hall, through a private door, and was not seen again until the re­ assembling of the guests at smotfaeaban- qnet. As all believed that he was the Duke's secret poisoner, he was regarded with awe and dread, and came in time to be spoken of and known as the Red Death Mmfc, How his fatal purpose i was effected, none could say; but it was havebeentoo Count, and my r that yo* audi look remarkably aldte, which is a faotviaKj dtraieasing to me." "Aodto me also, Duke 1* "There should be but one aaflh hoe b Venice, Count!" " So I think, Duke r " I may hope then von will take early 1wwe of our wood oily !" was in hopes your Oraoe had made JMWngemeiits to qmt this oountayr " You are insolent, Count r 4 ; f "So are you, Duke 1" ' "Bythe bones of St MarkI" Us Doketoegan, m a malignant rage; but, suddenly recollecting himself, he stopped, smothered down anger, and added, in quite a different tone, with a forced smile : » Your pardonVCount! I am too hasty. It is not the fault of either of us that we look alike. It we eannot be friends there is no need of our being enemies; but, as the first provoca­ tion proceeded from me, I will hope to remove it by a proper apology, and trust we may be passing friends after all." . The Count bowed and replied: " I am disposed to meet your Grace half way, in either anger or friend­ ship," " I thank your Lordship ! and trust yam will honor my banquet, on Friday evening next, with your presence, when I will do myself the pleasure to intro­ duce your Lordship to some of the firfet nobles of Venice 1 " I will endeavor to be present and do myself that honor, so please yourGraoe!1* replid the Count. " 'Tis well. Antonio (turning to his attendant), see that his Lordship has prope* -conduct from the palace." With polite bows, forced amilss, and suitable adieux, the Venetian and Span­ ish nobleman separated, each secretly hating the other with a bitter and dead­ ly hate, As Antonio left the presence of his noble master, he seized tbe first oppor­ tunity to say to the Count: " My Lord, I Imre anrivata irf^.fqr your ear." "I listen.** • •* We areoot "Indeed?** "Yea," pursued Antonio, speaking low and in Spanish, "I know your house well, and I would serve yon. Your life is in danger here." "So I believe." I think this banquet is am say- a soni pwssly to destroy you, " I had my fears." " Yet, if you will come to it, and fol­ low my instructions, you ahnll not only be saved, but may become the Duke oi FraneaveUa." "How? .Speak!** "Seem indifferent to my remarks, now, my Lord--for all beneath this roof are spies upon each and every other, and if I be suspected of what 11 ing my life will not be worth Have you ever heard of the Red Mask, my Lord I" " Never to my knowledge." "It is briefly this: On tha nigK^of festivity a figure in red domino and red mask sits near the Dnke. At the close of the feast, this figure shakes hands with all present, and it is rare that some one of the number does not die shortly after. Does your Lordship compre- "I think I do--searet poison!

In fact, this proved to be one of the most successful and remarkable impost­ ures ever known; and it was only through the dying confessions of the Count himself that the troth came out a^> which many would not believe even then. Long before this efent, however, the Red Death Mask had ceased to appear, because off tbe real death of Antonio, whom his new master had murdered in turn, for fear of being himself murdered or betrayed by the only one who possessed his fatal secret. Seorime always leads on to •Ay! well?" "When this Bed Mask s your within ! conjectured that upon one of ins Jeweled ^ fingers he wore what was known as the \"Death-Ring"--a ring curiously oon- i structed with deadly poison in the In- Iterior--which, oould be injected, by i, I sudden pressure upon a concealed •spring, into the hand of any one taken in (apparent friendship: and from the mor- Ital effects of which--though no wound, •however slight, could be discovered at Ethe time--not all the medioal skill of [Venice could save the victim. In the very zenith of his Hfd and >wer, the Duke one day received the igular intelligeqpe that a gentleman lad made his appearance in Venice, so losely resembling him in face and figure " At more than one person had mistaken for his Grace, and even some of his I'S friends had been thrown so much it© doubt as to address the stranger for " aself. To one as proud and haughty i the Duke, the idea of another human sing in the whole #ide world looking ike himself was anything but pleasing: I.-J *hs fact thai this unknown counter- was actually in Venice, causing it talk and wonder, was irritatirg in i extreme. 'Who is this adventurer? this base iterfeit t" angrily demanded the )nke. "Of what nation is he? and rhat brings him here f* 'None could answer. " Go, seek Mm out, and say it is my pleasure to see Mm at my palace." The stranger was found, and readily ~ the invitation of the nobleman, krho received him in his private apart- ienfcss with only one attendant present. The resemblance of the two was eer­ ily very striking. Both were slen- |erly built, about five feet eight inches height, of dark ooxnplexions, black and eyes, with aiighUy-aquiJ' ses, cold, stern, haqghty, sinister age. uiline _ _. ©x- ms, and between 45 and 60 years Eaoh saw himself in the other, i in a glass; and to men of their pe- temperamenis the counterpart i not pleasing to either. «ig-yj jjfe you?" demanded the Duke^ an imperious tone.

" 1 will oome--though how am I to know you mean me well? " "If I meant you ill, my Lord, what need to warn you ? " "True--if is enough--I will be here." Punctual to the appointed time, the Count of Palmera appeared at the ban­ quet of the Duke of Krancavella. The Venetian reoeived him with apparent pleasure, and, as he had promised, in­ troduced him to many i noble guest. The feast began and wine circulated; freely. At the close came the hand­ shaking round of the dreaded Red Death Mask. Scarcely one of all those present that did not turh pale at the thought that perhaps his own time had oome at last. The Count, being a stranger, was the most indifferent of any, ss was natural he should. He poiwed out more wine and drank, and then seemed to reflect. In this mood he held the small paper, which he had just received, in such a way that he could peruse it without being suspected. This paper contained these words: " Feign illness, and be shown to a pri­ vate apartment. I will be there to com­ plete the design." In a few minutes the Duke, who had been furtively watching the Count, re­ marked with seeming concern that he feared his Lordship was ilL The Count certainly did appear rather faint, but affected to believe it only a temporary ailment, which would speedi­ ly pass away. The nobles exchanged glanoes, and each breathed freer as he had discovered the victim in other than himself. But the Cotmt, instead &t getting { better, seemed to grow more faint, and his kind host suggested that he should be^shown to a private apartment and his chief physician be summoned. " I will accept the kind offer of your Grace, with many thanks!" said the Count, in a low, faint tone. "I will do myself the honor to attend your Lordship !" was the courteous re­ ply. " My Lords and gentlemen, pray excuse a brief absence! I will shortly rejoin you." He offered his arm to the Count, who leaned heavily on it, and thus they left the ball. Passing through the ante« room, they entered one hung with dam­ ask, and richly furnished. The Eed Mask, who had left the banqueting hall before them, was standing there, as if awaiting their coming. As the duke assisted Ms guest to a divan, the Bed Mimic quietly closed and bolted the deor. Then producing, a small ropes with the slip-knot of a hangman, he glided up to the Duke, as he bended over the Count and throwing the noose around his neck drew it tight, and strangled him before he could comprehend his murderous de­ sign and raise his voice for help. When the Duke was quite dead, the mask was removed and the face of peared before the Count, "Quick, my Lord!"said Antonio, pale and trembling at what he had done; " disrobe, put on the dress of the Duke, return to the hall, and be lord of the palace. If you succeed in deceiving the assembled guests--which I trust your close resemblance will enable yon te do --we are safe; if yon fail, we me lost! Leave the Duke's body to me.

It is a shocking fact that Jewish refu­ gees from Russia have been subjected to persecutions in this countiy scarcely less distressing and disgraceful than those from which they fled, The Brooklyn JSagle states the history of the beginning of trouble in Russia as followa: "In March, 1879, nine Jews in Russia were brought, up for trial in the Cauoa- aus on charge of having slain a Christian ohild and tapped its blood for Passover. This same hideous fiction, according to Emma Lazarus, was revived simultane­ ously in several districts, invariably leading to riot, pillage and murder. From that time to the present one liun- dxed thousand Jewish families in Russia have been reduced to homeless beggary, and eighty million dollars' worth of property has been destroyed, 'Men have been cruelly murdered, women brutally outraged, ohildren dashed to pieces or burnt alive in their homes.' Such has been the result of the recent Jewish persecution, and thousands of these unfortunate people have become exiles from the land of their birth." The headquarters of the Hebrew Emi­ grant Aid Society of the United States are at No. 15, State street, New York. The purpose is to take care of the refu­ gees who are coming in from Russia. 1I», S. Schwab, from Brooklyn, is the Super­ intendent. " ' What do you do with the ©migrants upon their arrival ?' asked the reporter. " 'When they reach here,' replied the Superintendent, * they are poorly clad and many of them are unwell. We clean them up, give them new clothes and the | sick are cared for by our physicians. | We then try to find employment for ! ihem,, We now have forty men at work in Greenpoint at one dollar a dinr. Sixty men have been sent recently to Portland, I Conn., and the United States Stamping Company has employed a large number.' " ' What kind of employment do these men prefer ?' " ' Well, most of them are anxious to work on a farm. We have a depot at Hartford, Conn., where we supply the New England farmers with help. Last week the Society sent five men out West and gave them money to buy land. They are to report how they succeed, and if the experiment works well, we shall send alarge number to the West- era States. The men who have trades we can easily provide for, as this class of men,, as a general thing, are first-class workmen,' "' Most of these men, are married, am they not?' ' *' Yes, probably the majority of have wives and children. " 'What has become of their families?' 66 la answering this question Mr. Schwab called up an intelligent young man, who said that daring the riots in Bussia the Hebrews, in endeavoring to hide themselves from the mobs. often became separated from their families-- ohildren would lose sight of their moth- en and wives of their husbands. In many cases the women and children found refuge in Austria, where they where provided for by Hebrew societies in Paris and London. Mr. Schwab told a story of a Jew who oame to New York a few months ago. He found em­ ployment as a hod-carrier, and when he had saved money enough he sent for his wife and children to come to America. His wife could not be found, but his two children, a boy sixteen and a girl thir­ teen, had just arrived, and Mr. Schwab pointed them out to the writer. He said they were to be sent to Cincinnati, where their father was. The Superintendent said that nearly every immigrant had a relative or friend that he was anxious to send for, and for this reason they were very impatient to be at work and earn­ ing money. "4 Have the immigants been annoyed much here in Greenpoint ?' inquired the reporter. " ' Yes, we have suffered greatly,'said Mr. Schwab. 'Only this morning one of our auen, on his way to work, was so badly stoned that he WHS obliged to re­ turn home, and is now uncle? the care of a doctor. Our men can't hardly go out of the building alone without being hooted at, stoned, clubbed, and annoyed in every way possible. It is not so bad as when we first came here. Before my bath-rooms were in order I used to send the men to the point to bathe them­ selves. They were followed by the hoodlums of Greenpoint, who abused them frightfully. Several of the men here whom you see with bandages about their heads were injured on those occa­ sions. I called upon Captain Rhodes and told him I must have police protec­ tion. He said he had a large territory to cover, and but few men to do it with, He promised, however, that he would station a man in the vicinity of our building, which he has done but part of & Y. tarn, X.
