THE SQUIRE'S LAST SHOT
'From the day you are that man's
wife you cease to be my daughter,"
and fastening on his h utitin belt,
with a quick '-good looming," 'Squire
Xavanagh left the room.
For one moment only Dorothy
lingered, then she darted after him.
Just as he reached the end of the
long corridor, and was about to de
scend the stepi, shecaughi up with
her father.
"Papa, will you not kiss nie this
morning? It is the first time in my
life that I can remember your having
forgotten your little girl." She did
not tell him that ail his threats had
not for a moment succeeded in mak
ing her falter in her determination of
being true to her love.
And even as she put up her mouth
to be kissed, and, with her arms
around his neck, drew her father's
face down to hers, she knew It was
for the last time that this would be
her farewell kiss. And if Dorothy
stood on the steps watching her father
till he was out of stein, it was be
cause she feared she would not see
that loved form again on earth and
she was right
As Dorothy turned back into the
bail the old house keeper met her.
"Miss Dorothy," said she, "I came
from the yard a moment since, and in
the kennels the dogs were howling
fearful like. James says as they have
not been fed this morning, and if you
were 111 or unable to come, he'd feed
'em himself, Miss?"
Poor Dorothy. In her distraction
she had completely forgotten her pets.
It was an unheard-of occurrence for
any one else to feed the dogs when
the young mistress was at home
"All right, and thank you, Jane.
I will go at once." The strange man
ner of her mistress did no pass un
noticed by the faithful servant, and
when a few moments later she had
occasion to go down stairs she re
marked to one of the maids that
"queer things" were "going on to
upset the little mistress," for this
morning she had "forgotten her
dogs." Doiotby walked out to the
kennels, fed the dogs, played with
them for a bit, and then went into
the stables. It was her custom to
visit the horses every morning, and
if this time she stayed longer in the
stalls, especially in that of her little
pony, MacDuff, no one noticed it.
She put her arms about the faith
ful animal's neck and kissed him, but
no one save the dumb beast saw the
tears in the big blue eyes, or heard
Dorothy's whispered "Good-bye, my
dear old Mac!"
Presently the sound of wheelson the
avenue in front of the house told Do
rothy that the hour when she must
part from her childhood's home had
. come. . She instructed Jane to bring
her bag, and then it dawned on the
good housekeeper what was going to
happen. Jane had been nurse to the
young mistress when the latter was a
child, and it was only natural that
after she bad brought the bag down
stairs she should fold Dorothy to her
bosom and between her sobs beg God's
blessing on ber, Jane had been the
only mother Dorothy bad ever known,
and, next to her father, it was harder
for ber to leave this faithful nurse
than any one at the HalL
At the foot of the steps, impatient
ly waiting for Dorothy, stood a tall,
handsome young fellow. His looks
belied him if he was not fully worthy
of the young i?irl, who was to intrust
ber life to him.
His onlv fault" was poverty, and if
Dorothy chose to marry him, rather
than to enjoy riches in her father's
home, she should not be too much
blamed.
Neither must she be called weak if,
after her goodbyes were said and they
bad driven away, Dorothy no longer
found it possible to restrain her tears.
Let us hope that she found more
tban compensation . for the Joys of
her girlhood in the married life that
be so soon entered on with Kenneth
Ward.
About two years later 'Squire Kave
nagh was in his library one morning,
going through hi mall and the day's
pap ra. when the butler announced
that the bead keeper desired to speak
to him,
Show blni up, Donald," said the
'Squire, and a few moment's later tbe
bead keeper entered. After a few
momenta' conversation be Imparted
to Ilia muter tbe Information that
for several nights nut tbe woods bad
been vialted bv rxjecher. He feared
that they were too many for bimseir
' totbHrMlerkeep0ri to eope with,
ad bt2d to be atl lowed to employ
ten to .Mlp catch tbe fellow Only
Ct before, In Sir John Arrao'i
ood, two of the gang bad been
caught, and the sooner the country :
was rid of the remainder the better. !
The Squire gave the necessary per- '
mission, and promised to be on band
himself that night !
ltorothy, after one brief, happv
year of married life, had found her- i
self a widow, with a 2-montbs infant i
to care for. The little money left by ;
ber husband lasted only a few months, !
and then, alas, Dorothy saw that it )
was necessary to do something for ,
support j
liy taking in what plain sewing she j
could ob tain she struggled on lor a i
while, hardly keeping body and soul j
together. The hard work aud priva-1
tion soon threw this delicately uurt-:
ured woman into consumption. At ',
this juncture Dorothy begged the
doctor to tell her the truth concern
ing herself. It was of her baby's fu
ture she was thinking. The doctor
understood it was no kindness to con
ceal the truth from this poor woman,
and as best he could be told Dorothy
that it would not be many months
before she would have to confide her
child to another's care.
After hearing thiscecision Dorothy
determined to sell her few belongings
and return to her father. For her
self alone she never would have ap
pealed to him, but for this baby, so
dear beyond measure to her, there was
nothing else to do.
Thus it was, after alongjournev in
a third-class railway carriage, that
Dorothy found herself again at the
familiar station of II It was
about 5 o'clock on a chilly November
afteinom; and before she could reach
the outskirts of the park a long four
miles iald before her.
After a moment's reflection she de
cided to make a short cut through the
wood to the keeper's cottage. If It
was late when she arrived there she
would stay through the night, in
stead of going on to the Hall, which
was another mile beyond.
The wife of the head keeper,
Therese. had been Dorothy's maid,
and Dorothy was always sure of a
welrome in Therese's home.
Cheered somewhat by the knowl
edge of the greeting she would be
sure to receive from this kind woman,
Dorothy started out on her long walk.
She had eaten nothing since early
morning, but little Kenneth's bright
eyes and red cheeks gave evidence
that he had been well provided for.
After the first mile, walking be
came very difficult to Dorothy, and
she found it necessary to rest every
now and then. At the end of the
second mile she could go no farther.
It was dark, her thin clothing had al
lowed her to become chilled to the
bone, and she was mortally faint.
Sinking down upon the ground she
leaned her head against a tree, in
tending to rest there but a short
time. After making little Kenneth
as comfortable as possible she laid
him dowa beside her that he might
sleep a little. They were very near
the edge of the wool, and in the dis
tance the pooi girl mother could see
the big light in the Hall Tower. As
she sat there thinking a great drowsi
ness came over her and soon mother
and child were fast asleep.
With about ten men the 'Squire
had started that evening to discover
who the poachers were and to deal
out to them just punishment From
about 7 o'clock, with his men, he had
been hiding behind a clump of trees
near the entrance to the wood.
They had waited for almost an
hour, and not a sound had broken
the stillness of the night
Presently, however, the experienced
keeper with his ear to the ground,
heard a sound that gave evidence
that poachers were not far away.
Making his way carefully through
the bushes, on his hands and knees,
he had not gone far when he discov
ered two of the gang talking in a low
tone. From their conversation he
learned that the rest of the party,
three in number, were waiting by the
road that ran through the center of
the wood.
With the utmost care he made his
way back to the 'Squire and explained
the situation. The 'Squire at once
gave orders that five men headed by
the keeper, should crawl through the
tall grass that grew on tbe outskirts
of the road.
Once there, the men were to sepa
rate, keeping about ten feet apart
In this manner they were to come
bacic through the wood. The poach
ers would then be surrounded on both
sideband If they should leave the wood
and take to tbe open field they were
lost No shooting was to be done by
any one but himself. Such were the
'Squire's orders. He did not consider
it necessary to shed any blood.
However, he told them he would
Are one shot Hearing this, the
poachers would fall back in the wood,
when it would be time for the keeper
and his men to come forward and put
in the.r work.
The men separated, the keeper and
his gang zoing to tbe other side of
the roaa, while the 'Squire and his
men remained where they were.
Shortly after the 'Squire's shot
broke tbe stillness of that cold No
vember night, followed immediately
by awful curses from the poachers,
who one and all took to their heels,
only to fall into the bands of the
keeper and his men.
But above all the noise, and strange
for that time and place, could be
heard distinctly a baby's voice crying
pitifully.
Tbe 'Squire immediately ordered
the lanterns lit, and kept two men
with blm to search the wood for the
child, white the others were sent to
join the keeper and help bring tbe
offenders to tbe balL
A few moment brought one of tbe
searchers to the child; ' but, before
reaching It, be stumbled over a dark
object lying next tbe baby on tbe
ground.

When Gen. Grant visited Japan he

Cottonseed Oil Faints.
The methods of utilizing cotton
seed oil are constantly multiplying,
one of the most recent of these con
sisting in placing one gallon of the
oil, pure in quality, in a suitable iron
vessel, into which twenty pounds of
molten lead are poured. After a
thorough stirring the lead separates
into globules, and when tho oil has
been poured off, after cooling, there
are found to be about seventeen of
the twenty pounds of lead remaining,
the other three pounds having been
absorbed by toe oiL On the lead
which has thus been employed being
again melted, and the operation re
peated to the fifth pouring the
amount of lead being less at each sue
seeding pouring the total quantity
of lead absorbed is about ten pounds.
The oil thus charged with the lead Is
then used as a paint, being employed
in tbe ordinary manner for metallic
surfaces, and it is claimed that the
liquid, which adheres closely and be
comes hard, protects from oxidation.

of significant meaning, comes from
