When Johnny Diiquosno died of
t.\phoid fever at hit ) homo In the Fair
L'iko Stream settlement , New York ,
tlip'o years ago , says the Sun , the people
ple around mourned the loss of \ man
who was the hero of one of the wildest
IWCB for love and liberty this partof the
Adirondack region ever saw. At the
time of his deatli Diiqno-no was a fanner
and woodsman , hut at the time ho made
a name for himsoif he worked as a guide ,
a bark neeler or a logger , lls occasion
oll'oied. Ho wns a handy young1 follow
at either occupation , but he was as fond
of a iidillo as a bear is of molasses , and
never allowed work to interfere with an
opportunity to attend a dance. Ho
would at any time fro anywhere from
Herkimer to Ilooiivillo was a hop adver
tised , and let a chance to pilot half a
doxen rich cltv folks into the woods go
to a neighbor , though , as all guides
know , a job of that kind is commonly
worth from $7f > to $100. .
Because of his love of a good time and
lack of thrift Farmnr James John Rob
erts scowled whenever ho saw him , for
leth , his daughter , was very plainly
in love with the reckless North Woods
num. Farmer Roberts was not going
to allow a girl of his to marry a man who
was "Buro to como on the town inside o'
ten years" not if ho could help himself.
As most fathers do in such cases , ho
relied on his authority as a parent to
prevent the match , and thus made a mis
take. Johnnie came no moro to the Uob-
ortft farm after ho was told to keep away ,
but Kli7.aboth.wont visiting her cousins ,
the UodgfB , down In RomBon , and called
at Bob Pony's , on the Northwood road
corners , and went to the Vordans , ever
in Bollnertown , moro frequently than
before , and it usually happened that Du-
qucsno was somewhere in the neighbor
hood when she arrived at cither of those
places. She always remained away from
homo ever night on these occasions , and
the young folks of the neighborhood
knew , if the old ones did not , that she
* sV was as apt to bo found before morning at
xjlanco at Hinckley or Trenton Falls or
Forostport , as at the place she had
started for on leaving homo.
Mutters wont on this way for a year erse
sohon ono day Elizabeth left homo to
go to Uctnson , her father concluded ho
must go ever to Forustport to goo Black
Dan , a noted character tbore. about
_ homo spars ho had to sell. It was
' "rather Into in the afternoon when ho
drove up to the hotel , and ho concluded
lie would wait for supper. Meantime
he learned that a daneo was advertised
for that night , and so , since dancing in
Forcsport always began immediatev !
after supper , ho thought ho would look
in and see the first quadrille. Ho ap
peared at the door. Thwo at the far
hide of the room stood Miss lillnaboth
with Johnny Duquesno. the girl looking
the handsomest he had ever seen her , as
* " ho often bald afterward , and Johnnie
"not so bad o'ft hadn't boon for his pi/on
la/iiios. " His first impulse was to go
in there and take Miss Kli/.aboth by the
arm and march her out of the room.
Then ho recollected that Forestport
young men didn't countenance any such
interruption of their fun , and that
Forestport boys were bad ones to tackle.
If ho wont in thus ho was likely to bo
kicked out by the lloor Inanag'ors , and
ho was by this thought inclined to
diplomacy. His second Impulse was to
\\liil awhile. As ho stood by the door
considering what to do next , the dance
began.
" " "Sides. "
"Honors to yor partners.
"First four rhrht and loft. " "Ladies
change. . " Balance four \vhowl The
way Johnny and Elizabeth came Hying
Brians that room , almost took the old
man's breath. It almost took theirs
too , when they stopped at the door , to
heo the old man standing there glower
ing at them. But away they wont
again to.their places in time for the
next figure , leaving him to consider
niul decide if lie could what to do next.
They wore caught , but they were gointr
to have a good time while they could ,
nnd lot the old man settle the matter
next day.
To settle the matter Farmer Uoborts
concluded that ho would wait until the
dance was ever and then take Kllztiboth
home , lie could afterward make up his
mind how to break up the match , and
with that ho secured a room and wont to
bed , leaving word to bo called at fi
o'cIoi-U sharp. The dancing in those
days usually ended at 0 in the morning.
After the old man had turned in , the
hotel proprietor slipped around to where
Johnny wan seated and explained the
lay of the land. Something had to bo
done to save the girl from trouble , hut
what to do was the question. It took
tovorul hours to reach a decision , but at
cl ltd o'clock the next morning the young
couple loft tlio hotel In thu rig they had
tome in and drove on a joir trot out of
town and ever tlw rhor near the big
tanneries and up the hill on their way
to I'rospoeU They were goliitf to see
ho M'Uinlist ' proaohor there an 1 got
tuarrkd , and then lot the old man got
ojmr his linger as bcbt ho might ,
a luck would have it Far'inor Uol > ort8
woke uj ) just as the couple started.
Hearing the nolso of their departure , ho
jumped to the window juet in time to
fcco iuize ; the ( jiuy hoi c ( .tho farmer's
own , by the way ) that Johnny wind -iv-
ing. Farmer Roberts concluded they
were bound to Romsoti , and the way
ho got into his clothes was n caution to
tailors to nrnko strong garments. Then
down the stairs ho tumbled , calling to
the hostler to get out the buck-board "as
quick us th'o Lord'll lot yo.and ran to
the barn. The hostler got there on the
instant , but never before had Farmer
Roberts had so much trouble in getting
the harness on his horses.
"Homo of thorn follars at th' danco'ns
the hostler explained , "never take no
notice of what they're doing when they
put out tliolr critters. They've mixed
yer harness up tori ible. "
Farmer Roberts thought the hostler
might have had a hand in the mixing ,
but discretion made him kt.'op still on
that point , and HO in the course of half
an hour ho was on the trail , hot to over
take the lovers. As ho mounted the
hill btiynril the tannery the 11 rat roy
streak'of light appeared in the east , and
nlated at the thought of having the
quarry soon in view , ho whipped up his
nag and was olT at at a paco'that should
have accomplished his desire very
quickly.
Here , however , lie made a mistake.
After crossing the bridge over the river
there are two roads. The best one.over
to I'rospect , goes straight up the hill ,
but the other , which la longer , turns to
the left and goes around by the old tavern -
orn that stands near the back yard of
the tannery. A cross road on the top of
the hill unites the two , and Johnnie ,
with a woodsman's instict to double on
his trail , had cut across to the longer
road , Ho thought ho would very likely
have a run fo1 ; it. One may go by either
road to Remsen , but Fanner Roberts
had the better road for that place , and
away ho went , and drove nearly a third
of the way to his destination without
seeing anything of tno white horse.
Then ho found a farmer out after his
cows who said no such rig had passed
that way.
"Look at the dust , Mr. Roberts , he
said , "Why , there ain't no tracks in it. "
Sure enough , Fanner Roberts had
never thought of that , and back ho went
toward Forostport. Ho had lost a good
hour by his mistake , but he had got an
idea that he thought would help him.
Instead of immediately taking the other
road , as ho readied the tannery ho
paid $10 for the use of a fresh team , the
tannery bays , a famous pair of horses ,
and then drove over to the telegraph
ollice at Forestport. routed out the oper
ator who lived near by , and left this
message to be sent to Remson , for there
was an early train that would get the
operator out early there :
Constable John Davis : A reward of $ 'J. >
wilt bu paid for the nrrest of John Duiuusno | ,
charged with stealing pray horse of James
.lolin Roberts.
Till * done he started on the true trail
of the runaway lovers at a gait to make
the slow-going farmers along the route
gasp as they saw him.
Meantime Johnny and Elizabeth were
jogging along with considerable comfort
though both wore excited over the ad
venture , and both wore tired after the
dancing of the night before. Reaching
the corner whore the Romson road turns
otT , they suddenly decided to go there
instead of to Prospect , especially as that
village was two miles nearer. They
wore anxious to have the knot tied. .
Nevertheless1 Johnny was too * good a
hoiKoman to tire out the horse by hard
driving when ho might have a race on
his hands , and so it was about 7 o'clock
when ho reached the long row of wooden
houses along the railroad track at Rem-
seu station. The main road passed about
ono hundred yards from the depot , and
as ho drove along ho saw the agent
coining out of the station carrying an
envelope in his hand. The agent , a
good friend of his , hold up his hand.
"Drive to Prospect like the devil and
John Davis was after you. " ho yelled ,
and Johnny without a question shook
the reins and said "got up. "
The race was on , for Farmer James
John Roberts with his fresh team was
tearing down the road but four miles
away. From Romsoti to Prospect it is
a nearly level track , and there was no
hope of eluding the old man by a side
cut or doubling on the trail. Johnny
know very well it was a question of
speed now , for ho understood the refer
ence to Constable John Davis , and that
the old man would stop at nothing to in
tercept or overtake him.
"Get up , Boss , " and ho plied the whip
until the gray broke into a gallop and
went tearing out of the village with a
clatter that startled the sleepy-going
people on all sides. It was less than
three miles to Piospect and his nag
could stand that much of a run. "She's
got to stand It , " he thought , as the
Hocks of dirt thrown up by the wheels
peeked him on the back and head. "Got
up , BOBS. By gel , Lib , we've got to run.
but we'll fetch the still water ahead o'
his hounds , never fear. "
The farm folks stated in amazement
as they How along the road. Some men
ran out thinking it was a runaway. Men
in milk wagons pulled hastily to ono
side lest a collision upset them. Some
recognizeM them and the circumstance
and yelled and cheered hilariously ,
while Johnny gritted his teeth and held
a tight rein , and the girl by his side ,
with Hushed cheeks and her hair stream
ing out , looked straight ahead and never
said a word.
A mile out lies the only grade worth
mentioning between the two places. Up
this grade Johnny pulled the hoi-so into
a trot and on its sjinmit , with the
Methodist church steeple of Prospect
in view , turned to look toward Remt-on.
"Got up , Bess. " There was nothing in
sight , but once moro ho plied the whip
and in a canter the gray dashed down
the long slope and a few mlnutos later
was sweating and pulling under the old
maples in front of the parsonayo in
i'rospoct. The preacher's wife stood
smiling In the garden.
"Tell Mr. Jordan to como right hero ,
quick , " said Johnny. Ho was not going
to lose any time getting out of the
wagon was going to bo married right
there.
"I can't"said the woman. "He's gone
to Wllmurt. "
"Groat Lord ! Get-up , Bess ! Wo can
roach Trenton ahead yet , " said Johnny ,
and the horse dashed oil toward Tren
ton , but was turned at the next corner
around the block , and away they went
up the road toward Northwood , where
workmen and a parson were building a
little Presbyterian church. Johnny had
honed to throw the old man olT the trail
by the remark and the feint toward
Trenton , and ho partly succeeded , for
when the father stopped at the parson
age and asked where the runaways
wore , the wlfo , with womanly sympathy ,
told him what she had hoard Johnny
say , and that they had started toward
Trenton. She did not tell all she knew
about the matter and Johnny made such
a good gain thereby that ho was gallop
ing olT the planks at the end of the turn-
nlko , up at liang Mills , before Fanner
RobertHplunging down toward Trenton ,
learned that ho was astray. But now
the real tight was to como. The gray
was getting tired and the road from
Gang Mills to Northwood IB four miles
long , of which a half mlle is corduroy
and two miles are deep with sand.
Johnny know ail about It , and it made
him groan as ho crossed the brook by
the little old walor-powor sawmill and
wont jolting over the corduroy. Moro
than ono man has thoughi that stretch
Interminable , but never before nor since
did It scorn so long as it did to Johnny.
Half way to the und ho could sit still
no longer , and giving the reins to the
girl ho jumped out to lighten the load
and until the corduroy and tno moro
than mlle long stretch of heavy salul be
yond were passed , trotted and ran along
side saying a cheerful word now and
then to the horse and the sweetheart to
keen their courage up.
Then ho reached the Ninety-six cor
ners and jumped in. Although there
was still a stretch of heavy road ahead ,
it was not long. Probably had ho
known how near the farmer was ho
would have run a half mile more. ' . But
ho was soon to learn about the old man's
gait.
Just a mlle below Northwood lies the
Thomas farm , and from the road here
ono can look across Holds and valleys to
the sandy stretch at the ond. of. the cor
duroy some two miles below. Turning
his head as the Thomas house waspassed
.Johnnie saw a cloud of dust tnroivn.sud
denly into the air at the end of the cor
duroy , and recognized not only the
crack bay team , but the form of Farmer
'
Thomas' in shirt sleeves plying the
whip.
whip.Without
Without a word Johnny turned to the
gray. The road lay fair before himand
'
it was hard and'smooth. . The whip
swihhed as it came down on the horse :
they wore in the homo stretch now , and
they would reach the parson if they
kllfed the Morse. Miller's horse was
passed in a jilTy. It was a little labored
then'ui ) to Luzern Ingot-soil's , but from
there down to the frog pond the wheels
fairly rattled and jumped ever the rocks.
Up hill aguin they climed for a few rods
and then down a stoop decline at a rate
that sent them round * * io bend near the
Boorslioid bridge on two wheels. The
o'.d gray was doing wonders , and the
hopes of the lovers swelled. In a
minute more they were Hying down the
hill past Gus Odit's , by the mill yard ;
and all this time old Roberts waf leaning
over the dashboard lashing his bays and
foaming at the mouth in a way that
makes the people think to this day that
he was for the time fairly insane.
The gallon and roar as the runaways
crossed the little bridge at the sawmill
brought the loafers in the little yellow
store iu Northwood out on the veranda
to see what iu the world had struck the
town , but they had hardly reached the
store door before the old gray , covered
with foam and trembling with exhaus
tion , was pulled up in front of them. At
tholiia'lof the store procession stood
Dave Thomas , an undo of the girl , with
whom Johnny had once had a substan
tial row. Johnny's face turned a dead
ly palo. If Dave interfered ho would
kill htm , and it w.is with the feeling
that ho was sived : from crime that he
saw Dave run hastily around the store.
Whore was the parson ?
"He's about somewhere. Reckon
ho'll bo hero presently , " drawled ono.
Presently ! That won't do. Bring
him hero q'uick ah ! "
"Undo Dave ! Undo Dave ! " The girl
jumped up on her foot , her facp fairly
radiant. Then she sat'down again and
hid her face from bashfulncss. Undo
Dave hold no ill wilt. Ho had , indeed ,
gone after the parson and hero ho was.
The parson smiled appreciatively on
everybody , and then as the spectators
stood grinning in return slid :
"Join your right hands. "
A cloud of dust that made Johnny
tremble with apprehension appeared on
the hill beyond the saw mill.
"What is your name , sirV"
"John Duquesiie. "
"And herV/ "
"Elizabeth Roberts. "
"John Duquosno , do you take this wo
man , Elizabeth Roberts , to bo your
lawfully wedded wife , and do you prom
ise to love , ohorish and protect her as
long as you and she shall livoV"
" 1 do. "
The bays were plunging down the hill
toward the bridge over the brook by the
mill pond.
"Elizabeth Roberts , do you take this
man. John Dttquesno , to bo your lawful
wedded husband and do you promise to
love , cherish and obey him as long as
you and shall liveV
The answer , "Yes sir , " .vas scarcely
hoard because of the roar of the farm
er's wheels ever the little bridge and be
fore moro could bo said ho dashed
around the corner , yelling :
"I forbid ; 1 forbid. " °
"Then I pronounce you man and
wife , " said the parson. "Lot us pray. "
Farmer Roberts was wild with anger ,
bnt ho was a devout church member ,
and when ho pulled up his team before
the group , where all heads were bared
and bowed and the parson was praying ,
his religion got the bettor of his anger ,
and his hat came olT.
They say that this prayer was longer
than such prayers are wont to ho , and
that in calling upon the Almighty to
bles's the newly wedded pair the parson
did not fail to argue the case with the
father nor to impress upon the young
man tli3 church's views of a husband's
duty. It scorns to have boon a fervent
and olTectiial prayer , for they say that
the father and the son-in-law became
friends then and there , and that Du
quesno ceased from that time on to go
about the country Booking for .dances
and soon became ono of the substantial
citizens of the Twin Lake Stream uottlo-
ment.

The gentleman who tolls a big fish story
unfortunately lays himself open to suspicion
that , in isolated c.oses .has boon proved un
just. But not often can ono tell ono like
this that the Chicago GlObe vouches for , and
provo it by cold testimony that no ono could
impeach that of hU wife :
"That's not much of a lish story , Mr.
vVhito. Why , when I was traveling up ono
of the small rivers in southern Alaska 1 saw
fish in such great numbers that the water
could not bo soon. It was a most remarkable
thing , , and I never hoard of the llko before
or since. They were actually so thick that
they were wodgcd in the water heads down ,
and nil that could be soon was thousands of
' their wiggling tails sticking up out of the
water , oacu ono , of course , having nn Indi
vidual motion of Its own. " A shout of
lauchtcr greeted Mr.Valkcr from every one
except Mr. Whlto , whosu face llushod up
hotly , then paled until it was whiter than a
sheet , as ho said :
"Uut , Mr. Walker , my story was true. "
"And true " responded
so was my story ,
Mr. Walker.
And the best of It was tbat Mr. Walker's
story was literally trilo , as Mrs. Wa'.ncr '
later In the evening testified. It was in the
spawning season , and Just above the spot
where th'o remarkable sight was witnessed
was a narrow rapids. The salmon wont up
the stroara in such numbers that many wcro
crowded out of the water , and gave to the
scone literally the aspect told by Mr. Walker.

I'AT'S THMl'TATIOS' .
Ono of the members of the Now York sen
ate , who has passed through a good many ex
periences during his lifetime , says the Buf
falo Express , was In his younger days a track
walker oa a Now England railroad. At each
end of his route was a small station. The
only norsons to watch him were in these
neighborhoods. Pat ( it la needless to say ho
was an Irishman ) lived in a small house be-
sldo the track , about half a milo from ono of
these stations , llo was the fortunate owner
of an old hoio nnd wagon. This Is what led
, to his temptation and downfall. There was
a good wugon road running parallel with thn
track all the way.
"I'ai. " said the temotcr , "what's to hinder
your riding but wean stations ) "
"It wouldn't do. " said Pat.
Rut the idea had taken hold of him , nnd
ono rainy night ho tried it. Ho loft his horse
half a mlle from each end of his boat nnd
walked to the stations at his usual timo.
Over the rest of the distance ho rode on the
turnpike , trusting to luck that the track
would bu till right. The thing was so easy
that it soon becumo a sott\cd \ practice with
him. For threij or four months ho guarded
the company's property In this way and no
ono was the wiser. Then ho was spotted ,
and a summary discharge followed.
"A rnnn with your genius. . for dodging work
ought to bo a lawyer , " said , tuo superintend

discharged truelc walker , nud-n lawyer ho be
