Till' ' ] NOIM t A SEXTON'S ' HABIT ( OrlKlnul 1 Old Pollork , sexton of SI .lamcV church , iind his wife were chlldhMS. Mrs. Pollock pined because she had not a Klrl to keep her company anil Pol lock slimed In her wish. Pollock linil a Imlilt of stepping to his door every nl ht heforo KOHK ! to lied to take a look at lilt church , not that lie f.xpectcd to see. anything unusual - it wns a nieie matter of habit. His wife told him that tt was a habit tind liegged him to hreak It up He gath ered ! IH ! resolution for an ellorl to do MI This effort took plaee one night In November. At 10 o'clock Pollock put out the lights In the house and went to bod. This was only the hcKlnnliiK of It. No sleep came to him , and he tossed about stiiiKKlhiKlth a desire to get vip , go to the dour and ItmU at the church , after which he Knew he would go hack to bed and to sleep It WIIH near U o'clock In the morning licfore he gav way ; then , rising , he wont to the door , opened It , looked at the chinch and was about to turn when ho saw or thought he saw a linn ! ) of light at one of the windows. Putting on his clothes and taking his lantern and the key to a door opening Into the vestry , he hurried over to the gloomy pile , now daik within , though lighted dimly without by a waning moon. Opening the door , he entered mid , passing through an arch , stood on the chancel steps with his lantein be hind him , that It might not Interlere V tvlth his \ Isloii , and peered at the pews , aisles , naves-Indeed , at those things with peculiar names that go to mnkc up the Interior of a church. Seen at that hour , by the faintest ( dimmer of moonlight shining through the windows , nothing could base been more uninviting. Hven a sexton may bare feeling , and old Pollock , although be hud Been the sight many times be fore , remarked to himself that he would rather be opening a gnue by daylight than standing there gay.lng over a se.i of emptiness. Hut , not seeing anything unusual , he was about to take his de parture when he hoard a fumbling at the great fiont door lock. Not wishing to he Been , he blew out hlw light and fc-ot Into one of the choir pew.s , where be could watch any one entering the church. Sure enough , the big door opened and pome one came In. Then came tin scratch and Hash of a match and the lighting of a candle. By Its faint Ilium Pollock .saw a man enter the church , leading a shrinking girl up the center aisle , who shuddered at every step. The pair came nearly to the chancel , where the mnn waited , listening for a sound , while the girl wit In a front pew , hei face burled in her hands. They weie evidently expecting to meet some one. Then the clock In the tower struck 2. A moment later Pollock saw a light moving in the guild rooms , and present ) y a man dressed In the vestments of a clergyman came In , holding In bis hand n small lamp. The man hefoie tJie chancel met him at the mil and wills pored something to him. Then he turn ed to the girl. "Grace , dear , " he said , "this Is the Jtcv. Mr. Hartshorne , lector of this church. He will marry us" From this moment Pollock saw through what was on foot as well as if bu were intimately acquainted with tin parties. He had served as M > \ tonltl Dr. Hartsborne for twenty years ant knew full well that the man hefoie bin was not Dr Hartshorne. A young glr was about to be ruined by u mock mat rlnge. Hut what was he to do ? He was ai old man Incapable of overcoming thc ( two ratcals and did not think that It appear and accuse them would be 01 nny avail. At any rate he did not dan try It for fear of bodily injury Tin Klrl was almost dragged to the altar There was lllit enough for Pollock t ( see that the man was well dre oei while the Klrl was In the pub of tin poorer classes. The mock clei > ; ymai began the service and had readied tin words , "Grace , will you have thN man" when Pollock nave a Kionn tha echoed through the church with all tin despair of one suffering from melan cholia Insanity. The groom and the mock clergyman looked ut each other with startled faces 'Jhe bride had to be mipportcd. "Go on , " said the fiooin under hlH teeth with an oath , and , after consider able urging , the service pioeeeded. "Do yon , Grace , lw\e thin man" There WIIH another gioan , this time down In the body of the church , for 1'ollock had clipped around by a side paBBage and got In among the pews. The pretended clergyman dropped hU book. "You'll burn for this ! " came a voice from a still different direction. By this time the groom had lost hH nerve as well us the clergyman and. picking up the bride , who bad fainted , hurried down the alule with her. "Drop her ! ' roared a sepulchral voice. The girl was diopped in the aKIe and the men frantically made for the door. Pollock. fcai Ing thej might gather cour age to return , picked up the girl and carried her out of the vestry door and to his hou e. Lena Hiu > remained with the old couple till they died , they bPliuvlng that Providence had caused the Hton to take hlh ie olutlon on that very nlpht nnd lioak It after midnight for the purpose of saving the girl and giving them n daughter. Lena , who was a good Christt.in , only yielded to the vil lain's , solicitation to a clandestine mar riage on bis promise to taUe her to n church. No church was available ex cept at an hour when all the woild was nfileep Hut how they got the UP.IH old Pollock never knew Ho did not again think of going to bed without Ills last look at his charge and often got up In the night to do BO.
