"My start, how it doe come down!
II I get there in time It will only be an
accident," remarked Uncle Joshua.
But he trudged along in the dark un
til he felt cerUln he mutt be In the
immediate vicinity of the treacheroua
Joan, to he stopped to listen.
No Bound save that of the wind whist
ling through the trees was heard.
"Curious," he muttered, "it seems to
me if I were in that place I would be
waking the echoes around here. I
will Invite them to answer."
So saying he stepped near the edge
of the canon and called:
"Hello!" but the only answer he re
ceived was the echo of his own voice as
it went down the canon or up the
mountain side.
"Possibly the water has risen and
carried them off, and if it has, there Is
no hope of their being saved. I wish
it was daylight."
"Hello!" came from down the canon
at this moment.
"Just like me. I'm about half way,
and if I don't make better progress the
next half, or if it don't stop raining,
they will all be washed three days out
to sea before I can get within easy hail
ing distance."
With that he started off on a brisk
run, which was turned Into a walk, for
he was liable to stumble and roll into
the rushing waters, at any moment.
"I must be there by this time, or else
I am not acquainted with this locality.
Hello!"
"Hello!"
"How are you by this time?"
"Wet, and almost exhausted. How
are you going to pet us out of this?"
"Throw you a rope and let you climb
out.
"We can't do it. There are three of
us, my wife and my child."
' 'There Is only one other way. I will
make one end fast and you can all hold
on tc it while I return and get a mule."
"Is that the only plan you can de
vise?" "It will be a little risky, but then it's
not half as bad as staying there. Will
you try it?"
"Yes; anything to get out of this."
As quickly as possible, Uncle Joshua
returned to his cabin, threw a strong
set of harness on one of his mules, and
then retraced his steps.
It seemed a long time to Uncle
Joshua, but to those who were waiting
his coming, with the angry roar of the
water, and the dull grating of logs as
they crashed against the boulder and
the sides of the canon, it seemed an
age.
But even as the water rose higher
and the sharp snap of falling trees
rewmare frequent, the anxious cast
awayssuch they must be termed be
lieved that the stranger who came to
their aid would not be longer than was
necessary. And he was not. After a
short time they heard him cry:
"Hello! down there!"
"Alright; we are ready."
"Be sure you brace your feet against
the side of the gulch, or you may get
hurt."
Slowly the mule walked from the
edge of the gulch, and the first person
to land safely was a little girl of ten,
without the sign of a bruise.
Again the rope was lowered, but as
often as Uncle Joshua would call to
know if they were ready, as often
would he receive an answer that they
would be in a moment.
CHAPTER III.
Below a heartrending scene was
being enacted. Husband begged wife
to be the next to ascend, but with as
much fervor she urged him to go.
Gradually the water was rising, and
there was hope for but one to be
saved.
"You must go, Marie. Think of our
darling child. She needs you to guide
her. Go, as you love her and me, be
fore we are both washed from this
rock."
"She needs you as a protector, Jules,
and that is what she needs most in this
rough country. No, you must go."
"Then I will. Farewell, we shall
meet In that other land," and.stooplng,
he imprinted a kiss on her lips.
A long, vivid flash of lightning im
mediately lighted up everything, and
two anxious faces that were turned to
ward the occupants of the boulder as
sumed an ashen hue, as they saw the
husband and father deliberately throw
himself Into the rushing torrent.
Then a startled face was upturned in
prayer, which looked as white as
marble to Uncle Joshua and his young
iha Diva 1 v a A i it . .

man remain in that attitude, then she
mechanically reached for the rope, tied
it securely around herself and gave the
signal to be drawn up.
Again the mule was started, and in a
short time the unconscious form of the
wife appeared above the eiiim nf
canon.
Uncle Joshua knew it would not do to
let her remain out of doors in her
cinally, she would receive.
It never takes a maa of Uncle
Joshua's temperament long to dli cover
the best way out of a difficulty, to when
he had concluded that she must be
taken to his cabin, he also realized the
fact that he would have to convert him
self into a pack mule, for, while he had
such an animal at hand he could not
use it in this case as he could not act
as guide and keep the inanimate form
upon the beast's back at the same time.
Inere was only one other war to
reach shelter soon, and that was to let
the child follow with the mule while
he led the way with his unconscious
burden.
Slowly he led the way past huge
boulders, around fallen trees.over deep
g ulleys, and through mlnature forests,
until his strong arms were almost
breaking, and his load seemed ten
times its weight. Then a short halt
would be made, until he felt he could
proceed
Occasionally his foot would slip as he
stepped on a huge stone, and as it be
came detached from Its resting place it
would go crashing down the mountain
side, gathering force as it went, and
unlodglng others in its transit, until it
would seem that the whole mountain
was movlng,then,as quick as lightning,
all would be quiet as the grave, save
for the whistling wind and reverberat
ing thunder, until the unloosed mass
struck either the water with a dull
splash or a projecting ledge far down
the canon, with a sharp, rifle-like
snap.
Then, again, the whole universe
would seem to be wrapped In a bril
liant, dazzling light, succeeded by a
darkness thick and oppressive, until it
would seem next to impossible for a
person to remain self-possossed and
keep his bearings.
But through all this confusion Uncle
Joshua plodded onward, only stopping
for short rests, and It was less than an
hour after he left Joan canon that he
laid the small, limp form on his hard
pallet and began applying restoratives.
Every effort was fruitless for a time,
but finally she slowly opened her eyes
looked about her in a dazed way, closed
them again and was soon sleeping.
Seeing that nothing more could be
done for the patient, he turned his at
tention to the child
"You must have your clothing dried,
child, so I will build a fire; but first
tell me your name."
"My name is Jessie. Jessie Jacquet."
"Well, Jessie, you remain by your
mother until I put my mule away and
build a fire, then you must stay by the
fire until your garments are perfectly
dry, else you may contract a cold."
JJut a few moments elapsed before
Uncle Joshua returned, or before he
had a bright fire blazing up the chim
ney,
"Jessie, child, come and sit here,and
I will find you something to eat," said
Uncle Joshua, as he drew a rude three
legged stool in front of the fire, so that
the greater part of the warmth would
reach her. Then spreading what few
provisions he had cooked on a table, he
told her to eat whenever she felt like
it. He then turned his attention to
Marie Jacquet, who was still sleeping,
out not restfullv, for every now and
then she would moan, and incoherent
words would tremble on her lips.
"Poor thing, she is again going over
that terrible trial in the canon; but
no, what was that? Surely I did not
mistake that name! Marie Tabor? Not
the Marie I knew."
Unconsciously he turned and bent
nearer the face of the woman as he ut
tered the last words, and as If she had
been startled, the sleeper opened her
eyes, and as she caught the steady
gaze of Uncle J 06hua centered upon her,
she passed her hands over her eyes,and
then glanced again into his face.
As though she had done something
terrible to this man who was a total
strangera moment before,she extended
her hands and wailed:
"You know me? Then forgive me
the past."
"The past, of which you speak, has
been dead for years though not for
gotten. I, rather, should be the one to
ask forgiveness. You were too young
tnen to care for anyone, but I never
could see it until I was from you. But
if you will consent, we will not review
CHAPTEK IV.
If the reader will go bark twelve
years with me, I will lake him to the
home of Marie Tabor, a strikingly
handsome girl of seventeen, the relg-n-Ing
beauty of the tittle town ttrwhlch
she lived, fler face was faultless In iu

lent an additional charm, while soft,
hazel hair, falling to wavy masses over
her perfect shoulders, made her simply
bewitching.
CHAPTEK V,
Nearly three months had passed since
their first meeting, and Uncle Jo.hu
was jutt about making up his mind that
ne was getting too old to live single
any longer though he was not yet
twenty-five and that he knew a little
girl who would make an excellent Mrs.
Smith, when some trifling thing came
between them,
He never tried to make up, but left
soon alter for Oakdale, where we first
not one of them ever dared to hope to
claim her as his wife.
It never entered their heads that she
was no greater personage after her re
turn from the great city, where she at
tended school, than they; but they all
looked upon her as a superior being,
and there was not one in town that
would not have done her bidding at
any time.
When she had been home about three
months, and time was beginning to
nang heavy on her hands, a new ar
rival was announced in the town.
Her desire to return to the city van
ished when this piece of information
was brought, and she began planning
to see how she could get an introduc
tion at once, for. as she exorcised it.
she was just dying out of curiosity
and lonesomeness."
Fate seemed against her, for a week
had passed since the stranger's arrival,
and she had not even had the pleasure
01 seeing him, let alone of being introduced.
The following
however, was to
Not a few were her admirers, but made his acquaintance. He followed
his calling there and soon had accumu
lated considerable real estate
Very few about Oakdale knew of his
disappointment, and they often won
dered why he never married
Hut what became of M.rle Tabor?
The question is easily asked but hard
to answer.
When she learned that Uncle Joshua
had left without so much as bidding
ner good-by, she became depressed and
began to wear a melancholy expression
Then she was taken sick, and for weeks
she laid at death's door, finally opening
her eyes to the light of a New Year's
day.
Jt is not necessary to dwell on the
days of her convalescence. They are
uninteresting. They are usually re
plete with cross or petulant words,
baren of even a smile. And Mario's
experience was not an exception.
When she was fully recovered, how
ever, she was her old, bright, vivacious
self again. .
Once she was out riding with Jules
Jacquet, and he began to make profes
sion of his love.
"You know, Marie, how I love you,
how I long to make you my wife; so
why will you keep on saying 'Walt?' "
"If you- must know, I do not never
can care for you as a wife should for
her husband."
"Am I not willing to sacrifice my
happiness to try and drive that Bad
look from your eyes? Come, now, let
us be common-place and talk this mat
ter over sensibly."
"I will not. You may drive me home.
I am tired, almost tick."
"Will you not listen to me?"
"Not a word on that subject."
"Thtn we will return."
It took but a few minutes to reach
home,
"Gocd afternoon, Marie," he said as
he resumed his seat after helping her
to alight.
"Good afternoon."
That was the last she heard from
Jules Jacquet for several days.
One evening she was seated on the
porch, reading, when a boy ran ud.
breathlessly, and handed her a note,
and without even waiting to sue if
there was an answer, tore off down the
street like wild fire.
Upon opening the note, she dis
covered it was written In Uncle
Joshua's hand, and read as follows:
"Watkins Glen, June 22, 1844.
Marie: Come at once to No. , I
am sick, probably dying, and wish to
mane an explanation. Do not fail, or
we may be parted forever,
Joshua Smith.",
(To be Continued.)
Thursday evening,
witness one of the
grandest social events of the season, a
party in honor of the return of Judge
c-ngle's son from the west, and on that
evening she felt certain of making a
conquest.
She was, by nature, a perfect coquet,
and never let a chanco sIId to add a
new victory to her already long string.
Gifted as she was, with the easy, un
pretentious, yet captivating powers of
ready conversationalist, it was no
easy task to lead a man from stage to
stage, and then laughingly cast him
aside.
She was fully determined to practice
her art on the new comer. He should
be her slave for a time.
At last the looked-for night came,
and leaning on the arm of the judge's
son, Marie Tabor glided Into the al
ready well-filled parlor.
Without any show of expectation she
glanced around the room, giving par
ticular inenas a nod and a smile, hut
at the same time she detected a
stranger in animated conversation with
a number of young people in the fur
ther end of the-room,
"How pleasant everything is, and
how those young folks are enjoying
men. selves, who is the strange gen
tlemen?" she soon after asked her es
cort. ..t,
"Joshua Smith. He was formerly a
college chum of mine, but I have not
seen him for three years, until my re
turn from the west. Shall I Introu
him?" ,
"Not now. Later in the evening. He
seems to want to talk now. and vou
know I generally want to do that, so I
will wait"
A short time after Joshua craved an
Introduction to the blue-eyed girl and
was soon seated beside her. tellinc of
the times he and the judge's son had
had together.
She sat and listened, as he related
the many ludicrous scrapes he had
been in, unable to break the hold he
seemed to have upon her.
Finally he asked her questions about
herself. It was then she Wan t.ri

Our Schools Should be
Patriotism.
a lew weeits ago we had the nrivi
lege of publishing some extracts from
an address by Prof. W. H. Shahan, of
r-acinc Lutheran University before one
of our patriotic societies, which were
copied by some of our patriotic ex

cuanges in tne east. We again take
the liberty to give our readers portions
of some extempore remarks made by
mm Deiore tne pupils of the Parkland
public school at their recent closing
exercises, ine professor is a thor
voKu iiiuDiiuao painoi, ana never
looses an opportunity to give utterance
to his patriotic sentiments. We regret
we have space only for that portion of
nis very Interesting remarks which
pertain especially to patriotic prl
ciples.
"I cannot close this talk without one
more thought (and may it fall as good
seea in productive soil), as to your duty,
as citizens in embryo, to this nation
the most splendid republic the sun has
ever shown upon. As I said in the
outset, the youth of this land are tome
the star of Hope for our future. Our
public schools to-day contain the boys
(and here in the progressive west it
may be the girls, too) who are soon to
take charge of the public affairs of the
nation; and in view of the present
siaie oi national unrest and discontent,
in view of the almost countless num
bers of the people already here and
who are out of employment and many
of them in actual want, in view of the
hundreds of thousands more, and that
too of ignorant, vicious foreigners, who
are being annually unloaded upon our
American shores, and vested with the
rights of citizenship before the smell
of the "briny deep" Is out of their half
and clothes; in view of the constant,
seditious usurpation of our political
rights and the nefarious attempts to
crusn out our dearest free institutions
a miserable travesty on American
liberty tirelessly practiced by the
selfish sectarians who have come down
upon us as did the "Goths and Van
dals" upon peaceful, unsuspecting clvi
lized Europe in the centuries gone in
view of these and other serious men-
opiwrtunity to enculcate a pure, dlgnl
Bed, positive and enduring patriotism
for our common country. What a
splendid, what a significant time in
life to call forth from the children of
the schools throughout the land the
highest, tenderest expreatiions of loy
alty and devotion to our American Institutions.
I can but speak In hearty commenda
tion of those patriotic ordori which
make it a special part of tholr work to
plant the American flag on the publlo
school buildings of smr country, and in
this way impose upon themselves the
duty of holding the youth of the land
loyal to the American ilsg as the sym
bol of American patriotism. This is
certainly full of deep and suggestive
meaning. It means to me genuine loy
alty to country on the part of the
orden and a proper recognition of the
necessity of that same spirit of loyalty
being awakened and nourished among
the American youth, soonj to be en
trusted with the positions of trust and
honor.
It means that they believe the dan
gers (ana they are many and ominous)
now threatening our country may be
averted, If the rising generation be
bufllclently grounded In virtue and pa
triotism to do fearlessly and faithfully
their whole duty. It was therefore an
inspiration to me to-day as I walked In
here to your beautiful, socludod park,
to behold the Stars and Stripes float
ing in peaceful splendor above the
i i.i...... i i .....
i Bi ainuu buuuui uuuuing. And ever
since, this thought has been running
through my mind: "How much, Oh,
now much do these boys and girls owe,
like mysolf, to our country for the
blesslngsj)Mtsfree publlo schools!
They are thepr lceless inheritance from
our fathers. They contain the patriots,
statesmen and sages who are to be the
political laviourB of the second century
of American nationality. Our children
should be made to feel this. They
should be taught to regard the Ameri
can system of free public Institutions
as just as sacred and as essential a part
of our free Republican government as
Is the American Constitution Itself.
Neither teachers, parents nor pupils
can afford to be passive or Indifferent
on this point.
Ours is the one great nation of this
vast continent; the mother of repub
lics, whose lullaby has been sung over
every cradle of liberty In the New
world, under the Influence of her
glorious example the last thorne, the
last crowned despot, has disappeared
from the Western Hemisphere; and if
our youth, our noble, generous boys
and sweet, lovable girls, are faithfully
nurtured in a pure, sound morality and
lofty, unselfish patriotism the Old
World's dominion over American ter
ritory and American affairs, in North
ana bouth America, will not outlast
the morning of the twentieth century.
The God of nationB has made our
country great and strong and free.
Ours is the only American power able
to stand as protector for the entire
New World; and that same Providence
which has blessed us with such gracious
favor in national might and grandeur,
has also placed upon you and me the
sacred obligation, the awful responsi
bility, oi keeping and preserving this
and all the New World republics free
and independent.
we can not ignore or shirk these
obligations except at our nation's
peril. We cannot absolve ourselves
from the obligations which Providence
imposes without incurring divine dis
pleasure. The Lord is the God of na
tions as he is the God of

selfishness and most inexcusable cow
ardice that could Induce us to desert
the present post of leadership we heve
fairly won in the Western Hemisphere,
and which It is our manifest duty, and
may Heaven grant, our glorious des
tiny, ever to retain. .
Oh, if only all the teachers In the
schools throughout this broad land
could but be made to realize this as I
feel it, and would then work accord
ingly, In a faithful, loyal, conscientious
discharge of clearly defined duty, in
building up in the minds and hearts of
the children of this magnificently rich.
far-reaching land a firm fortress to our
liberty and our American homes, what
imperishable monuments would pos
