THE DEACON'S STRIKE. Tlio deacon hud struck sonmtliing ut last. And , tliough tlio scclmlail Kiilch had liuon iniloa away from the nunroit post though the deacon was novnr known to liavo other compan ion than his ragged , gr.iy little burro the nuw s had spread. The wind , milling the gram plumes of the aprtico above the doacon'a hcadj ! is ho bt'nt over the glittering quartz laid bare by his pick , may hayo whispered it abroad ; or the crostcil jay , furtively watching him with keen , round eyes from the spruce's topmost boughs , may have berne it afar. A any rate , the deacon's strike was a secret no longer. Singly , and by twos or threes , the prospectors came , and , following in tliuir footsteps , came the boom. Them , as if by magic , there arose Mountain City a city of dug-outs and canvas tents , straggling up and down the nar row gulch and tcrminatinc in a nucleus of a tow rudely-built loj ; houses at its head. The deacon , whoso original discov ery had callt'd into existence this citj of a day , wits in no wise elated at his success , nor , after the fashion of the wayward prospector , given to con- vivnilty thereat , lie altered not a title of his ways , but , silent and self con tained as over , pursued his daily task of opening the lead with the same pa tient endeavor with which ho might have followed the plow over the rucgod hills of his native Now En gland state. Begarding the deacon in some sense as its sponsor , the camp had not been unkindly disposed towards the morose old man. It had made many friendly and sociable efforts at affiliation , but , being invariably repulsed , had 'de sisted , as it became tacitly understood its life and his hold little in common. For it was evident the deacon re garded with disfavor the recreations of the lively camp. The enticing strains issuing from the clance-houao stirred not his sluggish pulse. He carefully avoided the velvet stroke of the "tiger's" paw and hold himself aloof from the allurements of the "Miner's llotreat , " where nightly a coterie of choice spirits met for a genial game of "free/.a-out , " and a sociable discussion of the affairs of the camp. Naturally the deacon's self-elected isolation drew upon him many com ments. Many were the wild and improbable - probable conjectures as to his history , but as of this no man know ono iota , it continued to wrap in mystery aa insciutablo as the deacon's hard- favored face. A little thrill of excitement ran through the camp , therefore , when it was rumored the deacon had sold the "Green Mountain Boy" for a moio nominal sum. Nor was it allayed when ono morning the deacon packed his little tent upon the gray ] burro and took his departure from thofr midst. Away from the haunts of man , in the solitude of the hills , the deacon seemed in a more congenial element , His tent wus finally pitched near the summit of the range on a rugged mountain side , scarred and furrowed by the hand of Time , like ( ho dea con's own harsh countenance. And here daily from nun to aun ho prone- cutod , in his slow determined way , his search for the hidden silver vain beneath. Soared near his camp tire ono evening ing , ho was quietly reefing after the labors of the day , distributing , as wus his custom , bits of breud and bacon to the gray burro. Suddenly the burro pricked his long cars , and the Uoncon glancing around saw u man uppoach- Tng slowly from below. As ho drew no.tr ho recognized , with anything but pleasure , a young man who had boon the liveliest of the lively camp. His droas , different from that of the ordi nary minor , wus stained and torn , and his face , haggard and sunken , was turned upon the deacon witli eager expectancy. "I am famishing , " ho oxclaimoM , abruptly , dispensing with any saluta tion. "Will you give mo something to oat ? " For reply the deacon silently mo tioned to the viands still besidu the smoldering tire , The other waited for no more , but sot to at once. And as the deacon noticed his tremulous hand and the avidity with which ho ate , somothini ; like compassion crept over his hard features , "From the camn ? " ho asked , at length , as the other had uoiiiowlmt satisfied his hunger , "Yes. I loft three days ago , have oaten nothing since till now. My departure was rather sudden , us you can judge , " he added with a forced laiiuh , The deacon glancoQ at him inquir ingly. The other avoided his gnzo and fixed his eyes in a sullen sturo upon the fire. After a pause ho con n nl J r p h , , i , v mo oft .M > 1 w n u. it . i \o for tli'1 .nod i ' .i I ill I \ t I V ( 'II HKi I MlUiillU'i ' All ! ' u\cl.umo < l the duac'U ' , mth t grim liHik" .

I linvo oaten , inil rosti'd , nnd now I'll go , " ho addivl , in n weary tone an ho arose , tteinlilini , ' partly with oxcitcinent , partly with ex haustion. "Gnf' ' said the deacon ; "where to ? ' "I don't know and I don't eiro. ' and the utter hopelessness of his voice wont to the deneon's heart. "Sit do\\n , " s\id ho quietly , " .u-d let ino think. " The other fell back into his place by the tire and lixoil his giixo once inure upon it. For a time neither spoke , as the deacon absently continued to fucil bits of broken bread to the burro , "Deacon , " the young man said at length , "I don't expect any leniency from you. And yet it was kind of you to lot mo sit hero nnd cat , and I wish you would believe mo innocent of this last. " "Why should I not ? " the deacon io- pliid , as much in .self-communion as in answer to the other. Then , m his usual harsh manner , ho added , "Per haps you now HOO , young man , the folly of the lifo you led over there , " and nodded his head tow.ird the camp. itcftoiviii "Don't moralize , deacon not tome mo , at least , It is too l.xto for that now , " the other sullenly replied. "Too late ! It is never too l.Uo ! " said the deacon , with energy. "It's all very well for you to talk that way , deacon , " said the other , despondently : "but , then , you don't know how hard it is for ono to get up after he's been down. " "No ! " said the diacon , in a curiously - ously interrogatory tone. "No , ' the other replied , prnwiiiu wanner as he spoke ; "and , then , you don't know whit temptations such as myself have either , and you've never had to uo through wliat I have - thrown out to shift for myself , for my mother died when I was a child , and my father " "Your fathori" said the deacon , in quiringly , ns the other stopped ab ruptly. "Do not speak of him ! " ho said , ve hemently , as ho arose and walked to nnd fro. "It's little enough I have to thank him for. 'Liko father , like son ! ' that's what I have to remember him by , for I've ' heard nothing else about him since I can remember. Ho waa bad enough , I suppose. I nuvor saw him , and I don't know ; nuybo , after all , ho wasn't ns bad as I was told , " ho added , in a softer tone. The deacon followed his nervous movements with a curious gaze , not a little surprised at his vehemence. "I'm not ono to judge too severely , young man , " said ho , ns the other resented himself. " What's jour name ? " "Amos Sethwoll , " the other replied , and , raising his eyes , saw the deacon's fixed upon him attentively. And it may have been mere fancy on his part , but us the fitful camp fire tlarcd up brightly for n moment , ho thought n curious spasm contracted the rigid line of the deacon's mouth. It was only for an instant , for the deacon quickly averted his eyes and turned them upon the peaks above gleaming softly in the light of the rising moon. A long silence ensued. Tlio young man gazed despondingly in the fire , the deacon absently at the gleaming peaks , so absently that it was plain he saw them not. Far beyond their snowy domes his thoughts had wan dered back to his native town , and n par-.y of wild young men. And , though it had been long ago , it seem ed but yesterday as he saw them dis perse and followed the footsteps oi ono returning homo followed him as ho entered the empty house , and saw him take up a little note lying open on the table which told him that his wife , driven to dispair by his dissolute ways , had left his homo forever , and that henceforth their ways lay separ ate , for never did she wish his unborn child brought under his evil influence. Perhaps it had needed some shock , sharp und sudden like this , to check the downward course of his lifo and rouse his better instincts. Ho was no ! ono , however , to steer a middle course ho must bo ono thingor the other and , as ho shook the dust of his native place from hie feet , so also ho cast awny thu shackles of his ill-spent lifo , and became instead a cold , silent man , shut up in his shell of stern self-re liance. And BO ho had remained through many a weary year of wondering doring to and fro , until he WUB now a lonely and morose old man. Perhaps the sight of this younger man , already started on the down ward path , where he hud been before ; perhaps his desponding words nnd the sullen despair written in his fucq , or perhaps something moro than ull these Btirrod the well of loving kind ness hidden so deep in the deacon's rugged breast that no sign of it over reached his impassible faco. For , when ho at length spoke , it was in u tone Very different from his usual harsh ono. "Amos , go into the tent and He down on my blankets. I will join you presently. " "Deacon , " said the other , slowly , as hu uruso , "I didn't expect any sucli kindness from you , of nil men. I I thank you " und , breaking oil' , ho hurried into the tent. Long after thu cump fire had burner to anhoH , thu deucon htillmit beside it , with his ho.ul in his hands and his eyes fixed on nothing , The gray burro once or twice nibbled softly nt his eleevo , but , oliuitinu no attention , gru/.ud slowly oft' , Than upon his reveriu broke the heavy breathing of the sleeper in the tent. Glancing in , ho saw him lying on the ground with one arm under his head and his face lulf covered by one slim hand , Moved by a sudden impulse , the dea- ii nr' ' , M n . 1 tie !

It ia a nu-d lifo , also ; but such as if h I will iVk jou tosh.iro it with me. " "lo you roully mom to jjivo mo a show , deacon ? " asked the other with brightening f.ico. "Ido , " B.ud thu do.iooii , simply "lleru's my hand upon it , " an , ex tending his liiuul , ho hold thu slim ono if the young mill in an uainoat grasp. From that day foiward the twain worked iojj'othor on the ruu'god hill side. Tlio dc.ieon never nllitdul to the cause ot their meotitn. ' , but , day day , sol the fnrco of an ovamplu of l > atiunt , potaovoring labor an exam- iilo the other was not alow to follow. The deacon noticed thia with silent satisfaction , and noted also how the healthful o.vorciao in thu bracing mountain air tilled out thu hollows in tlio younger face , and erased its marks of dissipation Gradiully the two wore drawn together by n strong bond of direction all the stronger , perhaps , fruni its deinoiifitiMtivomiBR , for the young nun bee.uuu imbued \\ith thu silent LJS of the solitary old nun , nnd un consciously full into thorn himself. Yet thcio were times when , sitting at night bj' the fuo before the httk tout , thu two npoko of the results of their labors and their hopen of 'strik ' ing it , " and. of how , in that event , their future livei should be shaped. For it was tactily understood they were to bo spent tojrothor. At such timt'H , too , the young man often spoke of his pant , dwelling with n curious pertinacity upon the father whom ho had never snen , nnd always unding by saying , in a softened voice , "Uo mightn't have been so bad , after all. " To these retrospections the deucon always listened in silence before - fore the fire in his old musing way , and fallint ; into fits of abstrnctiot which lasted long after thn other had ceased speaking. "Amos , " said the deacon ono eve ning , "I am expecting tliu final pay' mont on the 'Green .M uuuiiii Boy. It ought to como on tlio uoioh the clay nftor to-morrjw , and. us wo are run ning short in the gun line , suppose wo go to the city , got the money , nnd lay in a now supply " "As you will , doacuii , " the other replied. And so in the morning they sot out , driving tlio 'burro' before them. Towards evening , as ihoy drew near "the citjf , " Amos began to betray sigiiR of unoisincss. "Deacon , " said ho , "you never thought it inieht get us both into trouble if I was soon in the city after what I told jou that first night , you roinombui ? " "True , boy , " the deacon replied , as he stopped still. "I had forgotten about it. " "It would bo best , I think , " Amos continued , indicating thu spot with his hand as ho spoke , ' 'for mo to camp to-night in this llttlo gulch oil the tr.iil. You can go on to the city and I will await your return in the morning. " So they separated nnd the deacon wont on alone. It wan late when ho arrived ; the express ollioo was still open , however , pending the arrival of the coach , then duo. After having waited vainly for its coming for some little time , ho walked away und sought lodgings for the night. The next morning ho found the city in excitement. The incoming coach had been "hold-up" the night before by a single road agent , and the treas ure box rilled of its contents , nnd par ties were oven now in search of the depredator. Hurrying to the express office , thu deacon learned it was true , nnd learned also his expected package hud been taken with the rest. The loss bore hard upon the deacon for it had been nil lie hnd except the little now in his possession. This , however , ho now expended in provi sions , and , packing the burro , sot out to rejoin bin companion. Ariivud at the spot whcro the two had parted he found no ono. Vainly ho snouted and waited ; there was no responec. "He hus gotten tired of waiting , and returned alone to the tout , ' thought ilio deacon , and , so thinking , hurried onward to the tent also , itul ho was again disappointed there wus no ono there. Mechanically the deacon drew of the pack and released tlio burro to gruzu. Thun , for the first time , hu begin to connect the robbery of the coach with his partner's disappear ance. "Ho could not do it ho woult not ! " muttered the deacon , an ho walked to and fro , shouting at inter vuls and listening vainly for u reply. And yet for all his protestations the thought would obtrude itself , causing him to walk about in agitation , UIK mutter again and again. "He wouh not ; lie would not. " And still he was more shocked than surprised when ut nightfall a party came up the little trail with his partner in their midst. _ ' "Deacon , " said the spokesman , ai they gathered about thu little tent "wo brought him hero ut his last re quest for it'a n clear cisongainsi him , Ho was caught skulking aboul the trail this morning , und wo fun in this on him , " nnd the speaker extend cd a package. Mechanically the deacon took it , and saw it was Htill sealed , and saw also that it wus the package hu bin been expecting , Thun in n da/.ed uu ; hu looked ut hit ) partner standing witl his eyes fixed on the ground , and tli old , sullen , despondent look on his faco. JUising his eyes , lie mot the deacon's for un instant , nnd read the horror in his fuco. "I see you , too have judged mo hu said , in a voicu m low us to hu nearly inaudible. "Well , uo bu it ; can but diu like a man nnd nn innocun one , too ; for , deacon , " and ho facet thu old man with a steady look , " found that puckugo lying in thu trail this morning. I hud growil tired of waiting and , started towards thu camp ttu ot jou.

The loncon hoird it , and his hand full r.mi his fuco and grained the breast if his llanncl shirt convulsively , as ho annul and fiiofd thum. "Now , " ho said , in u low , linn oiee , "you know mo. You know .but never once have I left the itraight and narrow pith to join in ho abominations over there , " point- tig to the camp , "That's ao , doakin , " anid the spokes- nun , u little taken buck nt this nb- . upt ntlilivsa. "We all know you uivo followed the straight trail , and that your ways wasn't exactly our ways. " "Yes " said the deacon " , , "your ways ivero not my ways. For , men , I saw ; ho folly of it all , and hnd long ago 'omul out lifo wus not given us to bo frittered away hko that ; that it was i terrible earnest thing to bo fouuht indcjiiquprod anil trampled under Feet , ami bo made subservient to the end. " "For twenty odd yoaia , " the dea con continued , us the othurs wore si lent -"for twenty odd years I have walked as straight as it was in me to do , keeping steadily on without friunil or companion until ho cnmo. Thei : ] saw what a wrecV ho hud made of life , and thought 1 might sot him righl niul stand Ins friend , anil may bo in time ho might ho might nt least bo a friend to mo. " The deacon's steady voice trombluc slightly us ho pausud , und his auditors still kept silence , hold by not any eloquence - quonco in his speech , hut by the grin : earnestness of his manner. Stil facing them , ho moved to thu young man's side and laid his hand on hi ; shoulder. "Ho is innocent , " ho said , in the same stead jvoico. . "I feel it 1 know it , and you shall not harm him. Hut if ho wero'not" and the deacon throw ono arm about hi n and shielded him from them with his broad breasl "if ho were guilty of all you suy , y ui should not harm him while 1 dr.iw tlio breath of lifo , for , men , ] am his fathuii" For tin instant his auditors gazed ai the doacon'a ' gaunt figure upraised be fore the othor. Then a bind' voice said , softly , "Boys , we'd butter git,1 and the two wore left nlono. * # # * * Half way down the mountain side the leader of thu little party sudden ! } stopped. "Boys , " ho exclaimed abruptly , what will the cum ] ) say to all this/ / ' There was a moment s silence ere ono replied , uneasily. "They wil any wo ro n lot of soft hearted fools ! " "Lot them ! " defiantly said the blui ! voice of the leader. "Lot thorn say what they plouso , for , boys , there ain'l any of this crowd going to part then two now. " But the camp didn't say so at all The camp instead worked itself up to such n state of enthusiasm over the deacon's pluck and drunk so many ant such hearty healths to the deacon am his nowly-found son , that the resources sources of the "Minor's llotrout" were well nigh exhausted. For , upon their return , the real culprit had boon cap tured and his last confession rovoulei the truth. * # # * # Magically , Mountain City hue sprung into existence like magic i ! faded away. The "Green Mountaii Boy" had proved to bo a "blind load , ' thu mines had failed , nnd the camp was abandoned. The touts have lonj , since vanished , with their tenants , and only the moldering lug houses their dirt roofs fullon in , mark the site of the once prosperous camp. With the rest the little tent upon the mountain side has disappeared , nnd its inmates have gone , no ono knows whither , most likely to follow the beacon light of Fortune westwnrc over the mountain tops. But , Uiough the silver mine hiddor in the mountain's ' breast was destinoc nuvor to bo discovered , yet the deacon con was ticher by far. For , in the reverent affection of the son ho hat saved nnd reclaimed , ho had struck i vein of pure gold yielding moro am more abundantly , and never U > bo ex huustcd. WOMAN'S TUUE FRIEND. A friend in need is a friend indeed This none can deny , especially wh''i assistance is rendered when ono i sorely uflhctod with disease , more par ticulurly thnso complaints und weak nesses so common to our feinnlo nopu lation. Every woman should Icnoi i hat Electric Bitters are woman's tru friend , and will positively restore ho to health , uen when all other remedies dies fail , A single trial always prove our assertion. They are pleasant to the taste , nnd only cost fifty cents pe bottle. Sold by Ish & McMnhon.
