A PILGRIM AG 10.
The sun was Just setting and the
birds In the trees that lined the nar
row road were heralding the hour of
rest when a solitary traveller came
along, headed resolutely toward the
east. His dark, handsome face, though
hopeful and determined, showed un
mistakable signs of great fatigue and
his shoes covered with dust, told that
his Journey had been a long one. He
wore no overcoat, possibly fearing It
would retard his progress, for he
scorned bent on making the fastest
time practicable and the veins In his
forehead stood out like purple cords
from the violence of his pace.
At the top of a long hill he turned
and looked behind him. Far far to
the westward he could distinguish the
spires and roofs of the city and the sun
sinking behind the dome of the uni
versity hall reminded him of Culver's
red lantern after a football victory.
Rut nature's beauties had little charms
for him," and, buttoning hls'c&af "around
his chin, he plunged onward Into the
gathering twilight. The number of
miles traversed began to toll on him
and his over hurried stride had
changed to a slower gait as he
cut through the graveyard to gain
ground. The road was now overgrown
with weeds and brush from disuse. The'
whole score seemed pen-ad ed by a
chilling dreariness that made the grave
yard behind him almost lively in com
parison. All about him lay the dull,
.bare, cheerless wilderness. The croak
ing of the frogs In the gutter seemed
only to accentuate tho stillness.
Darker and darker, and wilder and
wilder became the scene, until at length
he came upon a mansion almost hidden
In the wood, Its turrets and battle
ments overlooking the road. The foot
sore wanderer throw himself against
the outer gate for very weariness and
called feebly for entrance. His frock
coat how incongruous In such a wil
dernesshung loosely on his drooping
shoulders. His natent leather shoes
were caked with mud and dust, his well
creased trousers were torn by brambles
and barbed wire fences and his stock
ings were full of sand burrs. With a
supreme effort he lifted his head and
looked up to the second story of the
house It was dark. His face blanched
and ho uttered a half suppressed groan,
but he still twittered on the gate for en
trance as 1f wishing to learn his fate
at all hazards. Slowly the portcullis
was raised and the drawbridge low
ered. With dllllculty he stnggered up
tho steps of tho chateau and gave the
door bell a few spasmodic punches. A
maid appeared in a white cap and
npron and spoke a few hurried words.
The form of tho wanderer quivered and
either from fatigue or disappointment
ho grasped a pillar for support, while
a muttered curse escaped from his
palo lips the Dobutanto was not at
home. ,
