not pursued, but been overtaken by
l'at-hlon.
A sultry innriiln.ir. the last day of
.Tuly. found tin furniture covered up
and packed away for a month's nap,
and a carriage at the door ready to
take the (irays to the station.
As Mrs. (iray passed throiixli tho
hall she noticed that one plive of liiiy;
jhki' was unmarked, ".lacky, dear,"
nli' said, "please run upstairs and
w. ie father's name on a card for tiio
1 .ii. let' trunk; it has all our luitliliu:
Miits in it, and we must not risk
losim; it."
Jacky Hew to the third story, his
especial property, and he wrote
"Jonathan (iray" with such a flourhh
he splashed ink all over his tinners.
He went to an upstairs bath room to
wash his hands; but the water would
li.it come, so lit; rushed down to the
second story bath room, made himself
presentable, and was in tin carriage
by tile driver liefore his mother
lilollU'ht it possible.
.Mr. (iray locked the front door, and
pendlny: the key to ills brother's by u
servant, started on his summer holi
day Willi the comfortable feelitijj that
he was taking a needed rest and leav
ing everything safe in his absence.
About ten days later, two policemen
were loun,riin: by a lamp post near the
house. It had been raining for twenty
four hours preceding, and. nltliiiiigu
the sun was now shining brilliantly
the eaves were still dripping, and from
the marble stops ran a steady littlo
Ctrenin to the street.
"I say. Hill." remarked one of tho
men to his comrade, "It's n monstrous
(piare thinir. but 1 b'lieve It rained
more on this one limine yesterday than
itny three In the city; every time I
passed, there was rejf'lar pond on the
pavement, and it's still a-eoiuin' down
llieni steps."
"You everl.istlnsr it'lot," returned
Pill, "it's ii-runnin' out of the house!
YVhcre's your eyes don't you see It
cumin' rljrht under the doorV"
And so it was!
Fortunately, the llrst sienker know
where Mr. dray's brother lived, and,
hastening to tin place, he told Mr.
William (iray that there appeared to
be Hotnethiiifi tho matter. Within nn
hour the front door was unlocked ami
n deplorable slj-'ht was revealed. The
beholders nilcbt have said with tho
Ancleut Mariner, that there was
"water, water everywhere;" for It was
flowing gently (town the front stair
way, dripping from the ceilings, and
crich floor was full of little pools. All
Hie carpets had been left on tho lower
story, and they had ben saturated
to such an extent that the sensation
was tiiat of walking on sponges; from
the parlor walls liuug long festoons of
rich .-civet paper.
Uncle William, almost raising an
r.nnibrclla In his excitement, rushed
up to the third story bath room, and
there was a tub overflowing on every
side, and a full head on in the spigot
.Tacky had forgotten to turn back.
Well, they stuped It. you may lm

Indians call the telegraph, said to Mr.

for women with cloths ami buckets,
and for plumbers and carpenters and
painters and paper hangers, and up

Now, how old do you suppose Jacky
must have been to have done till that
mischief: "Ten, did ymi say? Xo, he
was more than that. "Twelve?" No,
wrong agai!'. "Thirteen?" I seo I
tihall have to help you guess he was
twenty-six .wars old, and weighed one
hundied and sixty pounds; and it was
a god th'.n t he was so old and big,
for If he h id been a small boy it would
have seemed a very careless trick la

n time, become capable of producing
rome kin l of cr ip, as the slightest
rrnvth of herbage derives plant food
from the atmosphere which Is added to
the s ill, and which In turn permits of a
lancer growth the next season. The
well-kmwn system of "fallowing" tho
nil Is basl upon that fact. Th.- land
is iK-rmltted to "rest," and In a few sea-sii-.s
becomca sulllciently fertile to sup
port a scanty crop. When thj farmer
proa;,it.M the Increase of fertility by the

natuiv's methods to gain substances
from the free source of the air, and,
IririHS his sod to a producing condition
much sioner. Vhn the land Is covered
wl'.h weeds It Is an Indication that na
ture Is herself utilizing the plant food of
the soil by growing crops that are in
digenous to the climate, and is allowing
no waste of time. Thp farmer will gain

There are by-products of the farms M
well as of the factories, and many nub
stances sold from the farms cost almost
nothing because they are produced from
thexe things which are unsalable. Tha
object should be to use the best methods
of economizing In the matter. If the re
fuse from creameries can be obtained
the raising of swine becomes a necessity.
If the location permits of easily obtain

farmer to put those substances to use.
If they do not find tholr way dlivvtly
to the market they will increas- too
value of the manure, and eventually. In
changing forms, seek ready purchasers
at good prices. The value of the waste
materials on tho farms Is nearly as great
as that which Is sold, but they appear

There were neither courts not juries
In the land; the word of a Callfornlan
was the only bond required. Even the
wary Yankee traders who frequented
the coat. when foreign commerce was
finally allowed, .trusted them freely from
one season to the next. An Incident il
lustrating this trait Is told by the
Aguirre family. Don Jose Agulrre, who
owned a trading vessel, once had as su
percargo a young man who was a stran
ger to Callfornlan customs. While the
ship, with cargo, lay In San Pedro har
bor, the master being absent, Augustin
llacha.lo, a ranchero of considerable
wealth In land and herds, but who could
neither read nor write, went on board t
do some purchasing, his carts awaking
him on shore. When he had made his
choice and was abou: having the goods
conveyed tJ land, the supercargo asked
him for either payment or guaranty.
Machado did not at first understand thait
he was being distrusted; no such de
mand had ever before been made of any
ranchero, where tho buyer offered no
money he being credited without hesita
tion. When at length It dawned upon
the Callfornlan he drew a hair from his
beard, and gravely handing it to the
young man, said with dignity: "Deliver
this to Senor Agulrre and tell him It Is
a hair from the beard of Augustln
Machado you will find It a sufficient
guaranty." The BUpercargo, crest-fallen,
placed the hair In the leaves of his
account-book and allowed the goods to
be removed. Upon Agulrre's return ho
was deeply chagrined at the Insult that
had been offered to his friend. The

One of the drawbacks to fruit-growing
Is the fact that farmers economize at tho
beginning. They buy from tree ped
dlers and do not find out that their trees
are of worthless varieties until they be
gin to bear, but as several years will
thn have been lost the mischief cannot
be repaired, and work must be done over
fcgain. Do not buy trees from any but
known and reliable nurserymen, and do
not refuse choice trees because the prices
are apparently high. He sure of good

"Why, whom nro you going, Elleryf"
called Mrs. Wlgglcsworth from tho vo

"Shall I toko Wllller" asked Mrs. Wlg
lihisworth, running down tho walk wiih
her bonnet on ono side.
"Tako Mm?" answered her husband
tartly. "Course you'll tako him."
With Willie's knees doubled up against
tho dasher, Mr. Wlgglesworth Anally shook
out tho reins and got his picnic Into mo
tion. As they Jogged on ho pulled tho
brindlo horse out of the gutters and curbed
as well as ho could that ecoentrlo animal's
predilection for involving their carriage
wheels with telegraph polos and rival ve

goggled from his head and a shriek of
wonder rose to his Hps as they presontly
kil ted a tall hoard lnclosuro and turned
In at tho carrtago entrance, to tho baseball
grounds.
"Why," cried Mrs. Wlgglcsworth In
surprise, "what placo Is this?"
"What placo Is thlsf" repeated her hus

"I know what It is, pa!" said Willio

twist tho neck of tho lirlmlloliorsoln order
to avoid running over tho legs of some
strangers, whereupou tho horso gnvo a
kittenUh skip and jammed a fat man
against tho fenco.
"What you do that for?" yelled tho fat
man, aiming a blow at Mr. Wlgglesworth
with his cane. "Don't they know any bet
tor than to let you out when there's a
orowd?"
A policeman pulled tho fat man away
and then led the brlndhi horso to a posi
tion hack of tho crowd. Tho gamo was
already under way.
"There!" sold Mr. Wlgglesworth, stand
ing nn nnd looking about, "this Is some
thlnglike it. Our club is in, I believe."
"In what?" anxiously queried Mrs. Wlg
glesworth gazing toward the grand stand.
"Oh, yes," sho added, "I see In that
wlro cage. What are they in thuro for, Ki
tnryf" "That's tho stud!" shouted Mr. Wlg
glesworth, ns a robust player In stuffed
pantaloons struck tho hall a torrlflo blow.
"That's good for threo bags."
"Three bags of what?" asked Mrs. Wlg
glesworth, but tho boy with peanuts passed
at that moment, and she concluded It
must relate to tho tralfio ho was carrying
on.
Presently tho sldo went out, and tho club
with red stockings came to bat.
"That's the dandy pltchor for you," Mr.
Wlgglesworth commented. "He's got his
curves right on today."
"What aro his curves?" Mrs. Wlgglcs
worth wanted to know, "and what has ho
got them on, Elleryl"'
But It needed only a glance at tho pitch
er, who had twisted himself into a knot pre
liminary to shooting the ball toward tho
striker, to Indicate wliero his curves were
to bo found. Never lu her life, Mrs. Wlg
glesworth said afterward to tho minister's
wife, had she seen a man so full of them.
"Threo balls!" declared tho umpire
"Wow!" howled Mr. Wlgglesworth, in
chorus with the crowd. " Wliatan umpire!
Tho hall was square over tho plate."
"KUery," cried Mrs. Wlgglesworth,
turning a wild gaze about the grounds and
tho howling, hustling crowd, "I beg of
you to explain to mol"
"What ails you?" snappod Mr. Wlggles
worth, reluctantly turning from tho con
templation of a brilliant altercation be
tween umpire and pitcher and numerous
other players on both sides. "Why don't
you watch tho gamo nnd keep still, snmoas
I do? What you come out hero for anyway,
If you don't want to see?"
"I do want to see, " protested his wife,
"and I wunt to know what it means. I
hoard that man with the wlro trap on his
head say thuro wero tliroo balls, and I
can't for the life of mo seo but ono, nnd
then you wild there was something square
over tho plate, and I want to know whero
the plato Is, and what they 'vo got anything
over It for, and"
"Vow yow yow!" shouted Mr. Wlg
glesworth, turning scornfully from his
wife and applauding a marvelous catch at
second.
"Whntwas that?" piped Mrs. Wlggles
worth, and her husband was just hissing
to her to stop her noise when tho second
base shot tho ball toward third for double
play. Tho bill flew wild, dashed erratic
ally through tho dodging crowd and
caught tho brindlo horse fairly In the ribs.
With four leaps and an equal number of
snorts tho brindlo horso was over In tho
diamond with Mr. Wlgglesworth attached
to the reins nnd pulling up tho turf at (iv
ory leap. Mrs. Wlgglesworth, left behind
with the carriage, get up a surenm that
never ceased until tho entire net was played
out, while Willie, with his neck thrust
through tho wheel, waited patiently for
everybody to come and unravel him.
There wuro a dozen reporters present,
but nono of them was nble to explain why
It was that tho brindlo horse could clear
tho field so completely and keep It so, with
nothing but Mr. Wlgglesworth on tho end
of a pair of reins to do It with. Hut ho
did It.
"Who was that other man?" asked Mrs.
Wlgglesworth tho next day as she was put

A3 TO MECHANICS' LIEN3.
A new act, approved by the Gov
ernor June 26, is one every contractor
and builder of houses ought to paste
in his hat. The practical effect of
the law is to abolish mechanics' liens.
The act provides that the latter shall
not operate if, before the contractor
shall have been ordered to proceed
with the work, the owner of the house
and contra :tor shall have entered into
an agreement, which must be filed in
the prothonotary's office within ten
days after the date thereof, by which
(he contractor agrees to exempt the
owner from mechanics' lien. The
agreement must be entered in a docket
by the prothonotary. The effect of
the law will be that dealers in builders'
materials can consult the docket and
if there is such an agreement they
will know how to act before supply
ing the contractor. Under the old
law if a contractor doesn't pay for the
material a mechanics' lien is filed
within six months after the contract is
completed and the owner of the house
is compelled to pay. Ex.
