As she reached the low fence which v ran before her house a hurried footstep sounded through the gathering gloom, a man's voice said: • "Is that you, Mary, my girl? Tou . look little more than a ghost under the shadow of those bushes.” & “You’ve kept your promise, dearest, and- come to see me,” she cried, as she threw herself into the arms of her lover, i Reuben Halse kissed the red lips so ", frankly offered him before he spoke.

"Anything I can do for you?” she asked him presently. "No,” Paul said - slowly, taking in every detail of the girl’s pretty figure, clad in cotton frock of gentian blue. "But might I speak to one minute— privately?" “You can say what you’ve got to say where you are.” “How different you keep your place from what a man's shanty la-” "You live down by the Blue Pools, don’t you?” “Yes, next to Reuben Halse, till his place was burned out, and he came to my shanty. I saw Rube three days back.” “You saw Rube?" Mary clasped her hands above her heart. “Yes. He and his chums passed through Lon Tom’s ranch. I’ve been out mere tuts two months past, help ing him brand and count the cattle. Rube told me that you and he had parted and the reason why. He asked me to look after you a bit. You see, we've been good pals, and I’d like to do him a turn now he’s gone under. You will let me look after you now and again, won't you, for Rube's sake?” The handsome cowboy, tall and' strong as a giant, clad in the pictur esquely rough clothes of his calling, bent like a reed before thj tiny, blue eyed figure of the postmistress, who laid a slender white hand In his great palm and lifted her violet eyes to his dark ones. "Surely, Paul Harding,' for Rube's sake, you may look after me when 1 can’t look after myself.” It was for Rube’s sake that the fol lowing Sunday Paul dressed himself In his best, brought a little two-wheeleil cart, gay with bells and bright colorB, to Mary’s door, and asked her to drive out with him. The day was fair, and “Beauty” Paul amused her with stories of Rube, and when they came to an end he told her of his own home, in the heart of a green country In England. He made her laugh with his tales of college life, and shudder with his de scriptions of the campaign in Egypt, which he had gone through. Only he did not tell her how he, an English gentleman, and a gallant officer, came to be loafing and drinking and gam bling away his days and his health In Great White canyon. The next Sunday Mary shut herself within her log cabin, and neither the blue sky nor the gay cart and smartly caparisoned horse, nor “Beauty” nor himself could wheedle her out. She would not be seen, she said stern ly, with one of Pfolliotfs lot. She, hdwever, repented and forgave him on his promise to amend for her sake. As weeks and months went by, and the green of the canon changed to red and gold, iPaul found that if he was to “look after” Mary he had to give up the saloon. And,- indeed, for a space Ffolliott’s knew him not, till one October morning his allowance—the money which bought his family freedom from his disgrace ful presence—arrived from England. For the next week Ffolliott’s was a pandemonium, with the “Beauty” as a presiding demon. Mary heard of It and refused to speak to or look at him. Then It was that he flung himself before her one day and prayed her to save him from that which he was powerless to Bave himself—from drink, and dice, and bad companions. And Bhe did what other good women have done before and will do again, Bhe placed her hand In his and with her heart full of Rube Halse, she prom ised to marry Paul—for her soul’s sake The eve of the marriage day arrived and with It Paul’s allowance from Eng land. The occasion and opportunity suggested a carouse, and Paul Informed the “boys” he would be standing trea! at FfolUott's that night for the last Paul was full ot liquor—he bad drank Mary's health with every man In the place—and he was also full of luck, for once in a way. A pile of gold lay before ht& on the table, and he war just proposing another round In Mary's honor, when big Bill Redfern strode In and was greeted with a shout of “Hal loo, Bill; you back! What luck, pard?” “Luck, my lads! I leave luck to fools and dead beats. I’ve been working, and, thank Ood, I've worked for some thing. I’ve put my sweat and muscle Into the ground and I've struck ore* None of your dust or pockets, but a vein as broad as an ox's back, and a* long as a river, and so I've come back with Rube—” Paul looked up with a start Hers was he drunk in a gambling hell on the eve of his marriage with Mary, and Rube had come back. “What did you say?" he muttered. “I said Rube and I had come back But don’t let me disturb the game. Come, come, have a drink; I’m standing treat, and as to Rube, here’s his health and Mary’s!” “I’m standing treat!” shouted Paul, springing up. “Have a drink with me?” And with this he flung bis liquor In Bill’s face and made a rush at him. A pistol flashed, a blue puff of smoks died In the hot air, and “Beauty” Paul jay stone dead on Ffolllott’s floor. Some of them went up to the post office to break the news to Mary. There was a light in the window, and by it they saw Rube and her sitting talking Quietly and with bowed heads they left the cottage and returned to FfolUott’i Without fulfilling their mission. Next day a rough-and-ready jury having considered all the circumstances of the case, and with due appreclatloa of Bill Redfern’s prowess as a dead shot, decided that Paul had courted ci purpose a certain death, and they re turned a verdict of “suicide while ol uaaouad mind.” I AN IN8ECT'S FOOT-FALLS. The Microphone Mnkes the Hoof Boot* of ■ Fly Sound Lm4 to the fat The Improvements which W. H. Soulby has lately added to the micro phone, or "sound magnifier/’ makes it one of the most marvelous mechanical contrivances of the age. The special construction of this Instrument is of no particular Interest to any one ex cept experts, but what is told of its wonderful powers as a magnifier of sounds will entertain young and old, as well as the sclentflc and unscientific readers of "Notes for the curious." After the Instrument had been com pleted with the exception of a few fin ishing touches, Soulby found it abso lutely necessary to keep the door of his workshop tightly closed, so as to admit no sounds from the outside, otherwise the inarticulate rumblings given off by the “ejector” would have become un bearable. Even with closed doors the cap had to be kept constantly in place on the receiver to keep the Instrument from sending forth a roar, which pre vious lnvestleatlon had nrnved to be a combination of sounds produced by watch beats, breathing, the hum of flies, etc. A fly walking across the receiver of the instrument made a sound equal to a horse crossing a bridge, and when Mr. Soulby laid his arm across the box the blood rushing in his veins gave forth a sound which much resembled that made by the pump of a large steam engine. The playing of a piano in a house across the street was, when ejected from Soulby’s machine, like the roar of an avalanche, and the washing of dishes in the kitch en of a'house across the alley made a sound which the inventor of the mar chine says was a “burden to his soul.” When anyone entered the room, walk ed about, coughed, touched the table or door handles, the shriek which is sued from the ejector was most pain ful to hear. Hundreds of uses have been suggested for the microphone, the most practical being those of blood cir culation and lung test LONDON FERRIS WHEEL The Princess of Wales the First Lady Carried Around the Huge Machine. England loves pluck, and the Princess of Wales has recently proved that she possesses a quality dear to all our hearts. She was the first lady to take her place in a carriage upon the great •wheel at the Indian Exhibition, and the first to make the circuit of its enormous revolution. She was accompanied by her daughter, the Duke and Duchess of York, and some ladies of her suite. Of cburse there is not the least danger in the act, but then there are many ladies who would feel nervous about it, especially as it had not long been in use, and only open for the public for a day. Since then it has, to use an American ism, “caught on,” and crowds throng the carriages at every revolution. They resemble nothing so much as a very comfortable railway carriage, and the pace at which the wheel moves is. so slow that there is ample time allowed for the survey of the marvelous view over London afforded by it. To under stand the enormous size of this great mechanical triumph you must stand un der it and look up at its tremendous proportions, the dizzy height of the half-way resting places, which will soon be opened as restaurants, and the vast size of the carriages, each capable of containing thirty persons. Certainly the princess Inaugurated one of the great enterprises of the season. Word Studies. "Dago,” as applied to an Italian, is incorrect as well as impolite. It is a contraction of Diego, pronounced “De ay-go,” the patron saint of Spain. All the older forms of “good-bye” ex press the same idea. ‘.‘Good-bye” is “God be with you!” “Adieu” and “adios” are “I commend you to God.” A neighbor is merely a “nigh boor,” or the nearest farmer. “Boor” is in this sense not an epithet, but the equivalent of “Bauer” in German, or “BOer” in Dutch. The Bowery boys, themselves dwell ers on a street named for a farm or “bouwerle,” use “farmer” as an epithet. Both “villa” and “town” were for merly used to mean a farm. Gradually the former came to mean a country resi dence, the latter a collection of houses. "Peck” was at first merely a basket of any size. “Furlong” was a furrow long. “Rivals” were those who dwelt on the same brook and were apt to quarrel about the water. Try Thau Ton (oe-Tw liters.

He Read the Boy a Highly Moral Lec ture and Then Warned Him Off- iH From the Detroit Free Press. I Was waiting for the Post Office at Hunts ville to open in the morning and mean while talking a bit to the colored Jan itor, who was sweeping and dusting, when a negro boy, about 15 years old, came along and halted, and beckoned the janitor to step aside. The old man looked at him sharply, but did net comply. "Say, yo!’ called the young man. There was no reply to this, and after a minute he again called: "Boy, what yo’ wants wld me?” sternly demanded the janitor. "I wants to speak wld yo’.” “Who is yo’?" "Yo’ know who I is. Yo’ Is dun en gaged to my sister Evangeline.” “Oh! yo’ is her brudder Sam.

He Correct* a Frofeaaloiial Mil take Without Turning; ■ Hair. From the Chicago Journal. Burglars entered the apartments of Mrs. Kate Calymore In the flat building at Twen ty-sixth and State streets last Sunday afternoon while the family were ab sent. The thieves secured over $300 worth of Jewelry and $150 worth of clothing. Among the lot of jewelry was a pair of diamond bracelets, one of which the thieves dropped in the hall way in their haste to escape. The bracelet was recovered and returned to Mrs. Calymore. Monday the burglary was reported to the police and a des cription of the stolen property was tak en, and yesterday afternoon a well dressed young man called at the Caly more apartments and stated that he was an officer from the central station. His next statement was that the police had recovered what they thought was part of her property, among which was a diamond set bracelet. He desired that he be allowed to take the bracelet lost by the theives in older to com pare it with the one recovered. Mrs. Calymore obligingly made the loan, .but bo far the Police Department has not seen the bracelet. The latter are thoroughly convinced that one of the burglars was the author of a sharp trick to obtain possession of the brace let they dropped in the hallway and officers of the Twenty-second street station are working on the case, but without result so far. A Prairie Fire. Describing a prairie Are in “The World of Adventure,” the writer says: “A more picturesque scene could hard ly be imagined. The night was very dark; but as far as the eye could reach, all across the horizon, about four miles" in front of us, was a broad, bright, lurid glare of fire, with a thick canopy of smoke hanging over it, whose fan tastic wreaths ,as they curled in the breeze, were tinged with the red re flection of the flames. Even at that distance we could hear the crackling and rushing of the fire, which, as it ad vanced, caused a strong wind; every now and then a brighter flame would shoot high up into the black cloud of smoke over the top of the hill, Illumi nating for an instant our tents and wagons in the dark hollow, and giving a momentary glimpse of the horses which were picketed on the side of the rise, on the crest of which the figures of the men engaged In lighting the op position fire—which, as It became too extended .they beat down with blank ets, only suffering It to burn a space about tweve feet broad right across the line of the advancing conflagration— stood out in strong relief against the glowing wall of light beyond them; and as they ran, tossing their arms and waving the blankets and little torches of lighted grass, they looked In the dis tance like demons rather than men.” Bloodstone*. Almost pvery jewel has a supersti tion of some sort attaching to It, and the bloodstone Is not wanting in this particular. The story is told of it that at the time of the crucifixion some drops of blood fell on a piece of dark green jasper that lay at the foot of the cross. The crimson crept through the structure of the stone, and this was the parent of this beautiful jewel. The dark-red spots and veins were sup posed to represent the blood of Christ,' and many wonderful properties were attributed to the stone. It was thought to preserve its wearer froom dangers, to bring good fortune and to heal many diseases.
