McClure Co. ) It was a Ice long time "when ould Ireland waa happy and contented , with lavln's and lanhln's plenty to alt and llttlo to do ; and vo had our own kings half a dozen of them In every county and our own parly- mint , nnd fo had mines of all sorts and descriptions , both coal and copper nnd silver and goold and , more- betoken , the guineas T\cro as common as tenponnics ; and the farmers had Holds of whato that It was a. day's Journey to walk over , and the smell of them was a'most enough to satisfy a hun gry man , If the llko could be found In the kingdom -but that would ho onposslble , barrln' on a fast tlay , when ( the ould sinners that they were ! ) they used to schamo It by Roln' out and snlftherln' up the smell of the whatc , and flllln' themselves ( the villains ! ) that way , till their fren'a would a'moBt have to swccl some of them ( the bla'guards ) with ropes , for fcnr they'd bust ; nnd the blight or-tho rot was ntvor known on the praties nnd they had tattles that big ( the cups , they called them ) that I hocrd mo Bran'fnther say that ho heerd his gran'father say that ho hecrd his great- Kran'fathcr ( I wish him restl ) tellln' him , that In the harvest tlmo they often scooped wan of them out , nnd put to say In It to flsh for mackerel and more betoken , the say In them days swarmed with every descrip tion of flsh that over put a fin In wather , nnd the flshonncn never used hook or net , but just baled the fishes Into their boats with an ould bucket. Well , howandlvlr , It was In them glor'us days of full and plenty that Billy Began lived as a sort of a cotthar to the king of Donegal , and Billy had one BOTH OP THEM AFTER THAT HARE FOH BARE LIFE. eon , Jack , that turned out to 'bo ' very handy llko with his fingers when howanted any thing that didn't belong to him. Well , that fared well till Jack grow up to be a stout , Btrnppln' , nblo lump of a gorshoon , when the 'king comes to ould Billy , his father , to make complaints on Jack , secln' that ho wasn't leaving a movcablo thing about his cnstlo or grounds but bo was hoisting off wld him. "Now , Billy Began , " says the king , says ho , "what Is your son Jack going to turn Ills hands to ? " "Why , yer reverence , " says Billy , that way , iback to him , "throgs , I think he'll turn his hand to anything you lalvo In his way. " "Och ! I know that , " says the king , says he , "to my own cost , but I mean to say It's near tlmo you were thlnkln * of glvln' him a thrade , for the short nnd the long of It Is that I won't have him about my house or place longer. I caught him , " says ho , "only last night thrylng to carry off the besl mare I have In any stables , Llght-o'-foot and that , you know , Is high thrayson ; am ye know that the lightest punishment for high thrnyson U to bo burned , beheaded nnd hung- . But I'll pardon him on conditions that you put him to a thrado at wanst , ant { 'hat ' nt the end of three years he'll bo BO pnrfnct nt the thrado that I can't puzzle him In any three things I'll put afore him to do , but If there's any ono of them ho can't do ho'Il have to suffer his fate for high thrayson. " "Why , yer highness * reverence , " says Billy , "tho tnrms Is mortlal hard , still- andlver we'll have to do our best , and sure the best can do no more. But what thrado will I 'prentlco him to ? " 'Why , as for that , " says the king , says he , "plalKo yourself , only mind my unpro- vokablo conditions. " "Well , " says Billy , says he , In a brown study that way , "I think the only thrado that over I could make an honest thradcs man out of him at would too a thief , for think It's the only ono ho has the Incllna tlon for. " "Plalso yersclf , Billy , " says the king back to him again ; "only nilnd my conditions. ' Well , to make a Ions story short , Billy thrnmpcil off and found Jack and tould hln what the king of the castle was nfthc saying. "Well , father , " nays Jnck , says he , "wb.iv can't bo cured must bo endured , so you' < foetthor bo up ibetlmcs In the mornln' an come along with mo till wo meet som dalcent thief that's Tnasther of his thrad that you'll 'iirentlco me to , for , between ourselves , I was long swlthcrln' to go an larn the thrndo properly anyhow , for , though they say that a self-mado man Is the best still In this back'ard place ono has to worl under a great many disadvantages In th uphill part of the business , so thn there's often I would have given my ono oy for a couple of good hints from a purtlclen In < ho thrado. " No sooner said than done. Jack nnd hi father took the road cnrty next'mornln' nm a weary travel they had of It that day through a strange country till tor'st nigh they came to an Inn where there was on trrtalnmont for man nnd bnsto and fo boys , too and they put up there that nigh nnd slept sound , I can tell ye , and , more o\er , uhon Billy paid the landlord the dam age next mornln' doesn't my bravo Jai-1 Mole twlce-t aft much back again out nf th till before ho left. Well , they started thu morning again and traveled on and on , of n liot , summer's day , when tor'bt evening wh did they meet but the mnsthermnn thief o all that country , and there and then Bill bound over Jack to him fc * three years , an ho gave Jack his blewiln' and told htm mak the most of his opportunities and to alwny keep before lils cyca the fear of what he'd meet with from'tho King of Donegal when ho'd come back If ho wasn't master of his thrade. Jack promised faithfully that It wouldn't bo his fault or ho'd know the Ins and outfl of the business so far as the ould buffer tliat ho was 'prcntlced to could put him. Billy then set out for homo again and there was nothing moro hecrd of me brave 'Jack till the three years was up. They weren't long In passln' nnd on the day after the end of the three years Jack cornea steppln' Into his father's house , and Dllly , I can tell you , was delighted to BCO him. Ho hardly know Urn , for ho had grown to be as flno nnd able lookln * a man ns you'd meet In the longest day In sum mer. mer."Jack , " says his father , says he , throwln' his arms about him , "linvo yo larncd yer hrade ? " "I hope I have , father , " says he. "Jack , ahaekcy. " bays the father , "you now what the king has promised If ye'ro ot able to do the tlirco things ho puts bo- ere yoV" "Ycfl , father , " says Jack , "and I'll do my best to do them and , ns yourself says , ure the best can do no moro. " Well , that evening the father took Jack p to the castle nnd when the king came out he toU him this was Jack como home again filler sarvln' his 'prentlccshlp and ho had ho thrado back with him. "Why , Jack , " eays the king , "It's wel- omo yo arc , In troth , acd mlllo fallthe ; hud , nnd It's fresh nnd bloomln' yo'ro oookln' what speed did yo como at yer hrade ? " "Why , thank yo kindly , yer highness , " ays Jack , "I can't complain at all ; I hlnk I done very fairly for my time at alst , that was my masthcr's opinion , and IO'B not the worst Judge ; " for , ye see , ack was modest nnd didn't care for puffin * nd blow In' about himself. "Well , It's well for ye , Jack , " says the ting back to him. "for the three thrlals ' 11 put afore you ye will no miss , I as- uro ye. " "Well , yor reverence , " says Jack , "I'll eel honored to do what I can for ye. Would yer hlghncas bo plalscd to let mo tnow the first , for It's as well to get the onplcasant business over at wanst ? " "Tho first thing , Jack , you'll have to do , " says the king , "Is this : Tomorrow morn- ng I'll send out a plow and two horses to ) low the tattle field at the back of the ill ! , and I'll Bend two men with them , armed to the teeth ; acd you'll have to steal ho two horses out of the plow unknowns ! o the men , and If yo let tomorrow night all on ye without having the horses stolen you'll undhergo the punishment ifor high hrayson you'll bo burned , beheaded and lung ; and this time tomorrow I hope to bo 'easting with my eyes on your head stuck on the porch of that gate thoro. Do you think will yo bo nblo to succeed , Jack ? " says he , laughing hard. "Why , yer tilghness , " says Jack , ' 'sure I'll do my best , and the best tan do no more. " Jack and his father went home , the father very down-hearted entirely , sceln' that there ( didn't seem to bo any chance for poor Jack at all , and he thought he'd sco him burned , jchcadod and hung before his eyes the next night. Jack didn't say much , but ho went to bed and slept sound , llo was up with the lark next mornln' and away out through the fleldo. Ho searched the meadows till ho : amo on a hare nslpep , and , catching it , he broke ono of Its legs nnd fetched It home with him. The king sent out the two lorsea , according _ to his promise , to plow the tattle field , an'd ho sent with them two men armed to the teeth , who iiad sthrlct ordhers that Jack Brogan would attempt to stale the hoises out of the plow that day , but they weren't to allow him on the peril of their lives , but were to shoot him If he thrled ; and if they allowed him to stnlo the horses they would bo hung to the first bush themselves. Well , of course , they had their eyes about them and plowed and plowed away till evening , and no sign of Jack ; so they agreed that Jack had too much wit to run the risk of gettin' shot , that ho had given up the thing 4n despair THEN HK CLIMBED IN OF THE WINDOW and had gone- and dhrowned himself. With that , they BCCS n hnro with a broken leg coming over the ditch , nnd away llmpln' across the Held before them. Whlrrool Both of them thrown down their guns and swords , nnd nfther that hare , for bare life. They didn't go far tlU they caught It , but when they came back the b irses were gone , ns clone ns if they had nlvver been there , and Jack was half-roads to tbo castle with them. Ho mot 'tho ' king at the gate and handed him over his horses. "Well , Jack , " said the king and I can tell you bo opened his cjes wide when ho BCCH Jack map-hill' up to him with the horses "well , Jack , " saya he , "yo done that' I cllverly , but them rascals have been too slack 'with ' yc , nnd I'll take 50 lu hand myself now.

" "Noll , " says Jack , "I'll do my best , and euro ye know the best can do no more. " Then the kins went cff to ordhcr out his eodjers to hang the two men , and away went Jnck home , and you may be sure his father was proud to sco htm back safe , but when Jack tould him the second thrlal , he got down-hearted again , nnd said he'd surely lose his boy this time. Jack said nothln , ' but went to his bed and slept sound that night again ; and the next night ho went to the graveyard and dug up a fresh corp about the same ago as him self , and taking it home ho dhrcised It In a shoot of his own clothes nnd started for the castle In the middle of the night , and Rcttln1 undher the king's bedroom window bo hoisted up the corp , and at the name tlmo throw gravel again the panes. "What's that ? " says the king , Jumping up In his bed ; and seeing the head at the window he fired , and Jack , with that , let the corp fall , "Ha , ha , " says the king , "I was too able for yo , Jack , my boy ; you're done for at length , nnd It's yer desarvln' . Now , nuccn , " says ho to her ladyship , "I'll have to run out and bury this corp. " Jack waited until ho snw the king eafc away with the corp , and then ho climbed in of the window. "You weren't long away , king , " says her ladyship from the bed. "O , " says Jack , purtcndln' the king's voice , "I kern back for the sheet to wrap THEY UPS WITH THEIR GUNS TO SHOOT HIM. up the corp In an' carry him to the grave yard. " And sure enough , she hands It to him to wrap round the corp , and me ibrave Jack steps out of the window and away with him. It wasn't long afther till the king came In with his teeth chattherln' , and steps into bod. l bod."Where'a "Where'a the sheet ? " he cried , Jumpln' up as soon as ho missed It. "Why , ye amadhauc , " says the queen , "didn't yo come back and say you wanted it to wrap up the corp and carry it to the graveyard ? " "O , Jack , Jack ! " says the king , lying back In his 'bed ' again , "you have thrlcked mo once more ! But , plalso Providence , that will .be the last tlmo. " Next day Jack came to the castle with the sheet rowled up an' ondher his arm , and presented It to the king. "Well , Jack , " says the king , smllln , ' "ye done mo again , but the third time , yo mind , Is the charm. Tomorrow night I'll sleep with all my clothes , as well as my shoot of mall , on me , and you're to steal this Insldo shirt ( showing it to him ) that has my name written on the Inside breast of It , ye persavo , off my back , and leave another shirt on me In Its place , and I'll have a loaded gun In every hand all night , and there'll be a ecnthry at every window in my house , and two at every door , and my bed room will bo filled with sodgers ; and It ye don't succeed yo know what'll happen ye. Eh , what do you think of that , Jack ? " "Why , " says Jack , says he , "sure I'll dome mo best , and the best , ye know , can do no more. " Now Jack's father was Jumpln' out of his skin with delight when he found that Jack stole the sheet , but when Jack come home this night on' tould his father that he had to steal the Insldo shirt , with the king's name on the Insldo of the breast , off the king's back and leave another In Its place unknownst to him , while ho slept with all his clothes aswell as a shoot of mall on him , and a loaded gun in every hand , and with n sonthry at every window , and two at every door , and the room full of sodgers , falx Jack's father's heart gave way again entirely and he said that Jack was as good as lost to him now , anyhow. Jack said nothing , but went to bed and slept sounder now than ever he did , and getting up betimes In the mornln' ho went to a tailyer and got him to make ft shirt of the same description , and of the very same cloth as the king's Insldo shirt , and ho got the tallycr to prent something In the In sldo of the breast of It but what It was we'll not say now. In the middle of the night ho rowled up the shirt , and , button ing It up Inside his coat , ho stharted for the castle. When the senthrles scon him coraln' they ups with their guns to shoot him , when ho shouted out not to mind , for that ho was comln' to give himself up , seeln' that It was no use In his endayvourln' to do what was onposslblo to bo done. So they got 'round him , and , tnkln' . him Into the castle , they fetched him to the king's bed room , where the y wakened the king and told him that Jack had give In at last and couldn't do it. "Why , Jack , " said the king , laughln' hearty , "I knew I would be ono too many for yo. Order up the hangman at once till we get through with this buslncfs , " "O , alsy , yer reverence , " bald Jack , "alsy , yer reverence , sure this was nothln' but a joke cf me. I have the shirt already stolen off yer back and another In Its place. " The king swore this was onposslble nnd the sodjers till a man swore the name , but king , knowln' Jack was so able , thought It betther not 4o shout till he was out of the wood , so he pulled off him till ho reached the shirt. "Thero It IH yet. Jack , ye see , " ea > B he. "Is that It ? " says Jack. "Is yer name In it ? " "To bo sure It Is , " says the king , readln1 it. "Show me , " says Jack , and turnln' round to the light to read the name , purtendln' , he slips it undhcr hit , coat In the wlnkln * cf a midge's eye , and whlp out the other ehlrt , "Ay , sure enough , " says Jack , 1'anilln' back his own , "that's It all right. So i suppose you may as well get up the hangman and let us finish off the 'business at oncet " "Sartlnly , Jack , " says the king , gettin' ' himself Into the shirt and clothes again , "sartlnly , delays Is dangerous. " . But , lo and behould you ! when the hang man wa& got and everything % SRN srppared , the king asked Jack If he bad anything to eay before ho'd die. "Why , yes , yer highness , " says Jack , "I have a trlflln' WPC word to say. " " An1 what is It ? " says the king , ' 'Out with It , man , and don't be backward about It. " "Why , " zay Jack , pullln' out the klng'a shirt from undher his coat , It's only this there's yer shirt , stolen off yer back , al though yo slept In yer clothes and n shoot ot mall , nnd with a sonthry at Iverjr win dow , and two nt Ivory door , and yer bed room filled with sodjcra , and I have left another shirt on yer back. " I Tbo king looked nt the shirt and read his j name on It , and , turnln' nine colors at wanst , he peeled oil htm again , and tnkln' off his Insldo shirt bo read on the Insldo ot the breast of U : SouUl again , ould brlckl Thl Is my third trick rriio shirt taken off yer back By ' ' Maslcr-Thlcf Jnck. The king was thundhcr-struck , and no wondherl Ho ups and ho says at wanst , just as soon as ho got his senses gathered : "Jack , " says he , "you must lave my dominions , for I'm not sure but yo might state the very teeth out ot my head , If yo only took the notion. I'm sorry , Indeed , Jack , but go yo must. At the same tlmo I'll threat ye dalcent yc'lf have as much gold with yo as yer pockets can hould. " "Thank yo for nothln' , " says Jack back to him , "for I could have that Jt yer highness was to put U undher nil the locks In the i kingdom. But 1 have one rcqulst to ask yo nfore I go. " "Name It , Jack , " says the king. "Will yo see that me ould father nlvlr wants for anything whllo ho lives ? " , "Troth , I will that , Jack , for I'll take him up to the castfo to live along with myself ; he'll get altln' and dhrlnkln' of the best ; he'll not bo asked to do a hand's turn of work , and he'll be as happy ns the day Is long. " Jnck thanked the king hearty , and set out on his thravels. He went back to the coun try ho was 'prentlced in , nnd as his ould masther had Just died , Jack was appointed masther-man-thlef of that whole counthry , and lived happy and well Ivlr afther.
