Martha Ullbert Dickinson, In Harper's.
THE HOUSE ON LONG KILL,
On tho way back from Fltchbur to
Mew Haven, after a Yale College va
cation, I rodo across Connecticut on a
bicycle. The necond day of the trip I
stopped at I'omfret to visit Putnuin's
iwolf den. This took more time than I
expected so that It was dark before I
reached the Nathan Hale monument at
South Coventry.
Here I left Lake Wangumbaug on my
rliflit and soon entered a lonely road
I
pnere woods added their shadow to the
arknesa as evening rapidly fell. Tho
track was grass Rrown, stony and bad
for a wheel. Many cart-paths made the
way uncertain, because. In the dark
ness, tho main road could hardly be dis
tinguished from them. The mountain
ous character of the country Increased
as I proceeded; sharp declivities and
steep hills frequently alternating and
compelling me to walk much of tho
,way.
After a few miles of this Blow work,
I .taw that I was nearlng a huge eleva
tion that lay across my course like a
dark, partly rocky and imrtly wooded
range. I thought that the road would
soon turn and lead me through some
pn.ss between two hills that the dark
ness had shaded Into one, but Instead
of that It approached the base directly.
I Jumped off my wheel and began
to climb a hill so steep tlwit I did not
see how a horse could be driven up or
down. After a while I began to think
it had no top; but at last I was at the
summit, where, In a small clearing,
stood a half-fallen chimney, like the
monument of a family wholly gone. The
landscape beyond looked dark and wild.
A few lights glimmered so far away,
and remote from each other as to In
tensify rather than relieve the loneli
ness. The descent of the hill was not quite
so steep, but It threatened to be even
longer tha i the ascent. I had carefully
run down the rough road for a long
distance when a light suddenly flashed
out on my right. I discovered that I
was passing the entrance of a lane that
led back several rods to a house from
which a lantern Just then passed to a
well. The light revealed the stone
chimney and the ancient windows of
a house that had, perhaps, survived a
former century.
The well-sweep tlpjved and rose
again and the lantern quickly disap
peared at a side door. Here I rapped
and the door was opened by a young
woman about twenty years of age. Sho
as modest to the verge of dillldence
and one more unaffectedly dignified
and graceful I had never seen. Her
answers to my Inquiries convinced me
that In order to reach the nearest hotel
I should have to pick my way In the
deepening darkness along several miles
of road no better than I had already
found.
I made bold to ask If I might remain
till morning where I was. She turned
Kiid referred the question to "Grandma,
.who appeared aged and Infirm as she
eat in an old wooden rocklng-chalr.
"Ask the gentleman In, Carrie." said
she.
The room Into which I was Invited ex
tended almost across the rear of the
house. At the end opposite to that
where I entered, a door standing pnrtly
open gave a glimpse of a small bed
room. Half way down the room on one
side was an open fireplace with its
crane, Its andirons and its stone hearth.
I'uneled wood-work extended around
th sides of the room and as far up as
the window-sills. In one corner was a
tall, old-fashioned clock. In another
corner, at the end farthest from the
bedroom, stood a closet that was like a
square box set on end and pushed bark
Into the angle where the side meet tho
nd of the room. The corner Itself mado
the back walls of the closet, while tho
two front sides made an opposite corner
that projected into the room.
Its doors were fastened with a wood
en botton put on with a big wought
nail. This closet was used for a clothes
press for overalls and other things worn
about tho farm, iilke almost every
t ln else to be seen In this room, It
"'lped the illusion that transported me
a. k to colonial times.
I acceptfd the chair near the old lady,
wh.i was deaf, and found her an lnter
''". and Intelligent talker. Hut con
Waallon was made a little dilllcult by
the deafness of the elder and the dilll
dence of the younger one. Both char
acteristics, however, seemed to fit tho
place charmingly.
They asked about my trip. When I
Jiieiitkmed my destination, the young
lady surprised me by remarking:
"I have a brohter at Vale."
I inquired his name.
"Your brother Is well known In col
lege, said L "he Is one of the best men
among the Juniors."
She blushed at this praise of her
brother, and turning toward the door I
lud noticed, said:
"You will occupy his room; that one !
behind you. I am afraid it may seem
little lonely," she added, "but our j
hired man will come home before very
lute and his room Is directly over it." I
"Nothing so lonely as that road from ;
Coventry Is likely to fall to my share j
to-night." I replied.
"'It must seem so to a stranger. 1 1
suppose, toothat thlB is the longest hill
you have seen on the way,"
"Yes. and I hardly saw this for the
darkness. Hut I leallzed Its length.")
"Long Hill is Its name." 1
"It Is a fitting one. We have a high
lull, or mountain, In full view neur
fitchliujg, almost ns nptly named. It
1ms a barf stony look as If stones might
loll down from the top, and we call It
liollstone."
"Isn't Mt. Wachusett near Pitch
burg?" "Not so near as old Rollstone. How
w down this hill have I come?"
Almost UaljC way." . ji"''
TTow far off In this direction arc
your nraj-t-r.t neighbors!"
"A mile? and a quarter. Tbera Is only
one holme In three milts, except one or
two old deserted oned."
"And do you two always live here
alone?"
"No; most of the time we have a hired
Man."
7 should thing you wnutd be dread
fully lonesome. Aren't you afrtOd
sometimes?"
"We dptit think of It. You know we
have always lived hero. This Is no nat
ural to us as FKchburg or New Haven
fa to you."
"In reality you may tie safer hr.
Bometlmco burglars make calls there."
"We hart a burglar hire once."
I begged to here the story.
"It was when my father and mother
were living," said the young woman.
"They had started that day for Nor
wich, taking me with them for a short
visit at my uncle's. I was a little girl
then and my brother Joe, who is now In
college, was only 12 years old. Ho was
never given to frightening himself with
things that did not happen and he
rather enjoyed being left alone as a man
of the house with grandma over night.
"In the middle of the night he waked
and thought he heard grandma In the
kitchen. He knew It would be of no use
to call and ask If she was 111, for she
was as deaf then as she Is now. So he
Jumped out of bed and came right out
here Into this room. A few coals left In
the firepluce made a dim light. He was
surprised to find no one here. Soon he
noticed that one of the windows hnd
been left open. Then he saw that the
button was turned from the closet door.
The door moved slightly. He spumg
with his whole force against It and
turned the button."
"Good for little Joe!" I exclaimed.
"It had been still Blnce he first
moved." she continued, "but there was
noise enough now. I am telling him
what a rumpus the burglar made when
he found himself In Joe's lockup," said
she, turning to her grandmother, who
could hear very little, but was watch
ing my countenance while I listened.
"Dear me!" said the old lady, "I never
was so frightened. I waked up and
was sure there was a great noise some
where. My first thought was that somo
of the creatures were, loose In the barn.
Then I heard a man yelling and I
couldn't think what on earth had hap
pened! When I caught the sound of lit
tle Joe's voice In the kitchen I came out
as quick as I could get here. I couldn't
see anybody but him, but he seemed to
be holding a lively discussion with some
one.
"Shut up your noise,' he shouted.
'Hush!' said I. 'Whom are you talking
to like that?' Then I heard somebody
roar, 'Let me out of this, youngster, or
I II break every bone In your body.'
'You'll break your own bones If you
don't stop that kicking,' says Joe, as
saucy as could be for all my hushing
"In the morning we hailed the first
man driving by and asked for his help.
We found the door still buttoned, but
could not get any answer. When we
turned th button the fellow dropped
all In a heap on the floor apparently
dead. The burglar revived after a while
but nut till little Joe and his helper
had bound him securely."
"He had escaped from prison," said
Carrie, "and had been hiding In the
woods. He saw father drive away and
when he found that he did not return
he thought there was a good chance to
get a disguise to wear Instead of hia
striped prison suit. But he Is wearing
that still. Joe saw him not long ago
In one of the prison shops at Wethers-
field, where he Is serving out a long
Bentence."
Soon afterwards as I rose to go to
my room, the grandmother said:
"I hope the story of Joe's burglar
won't affect you as It did Pat, our hired
man. When he first came here he no
ticed the peculiar construction of the
closet and I told him about Joe's adven
ture. He declared the next morning
that ha didn't sleep, but a couple o'
three winks all night."
"I shall sleep all the more soundly,"
said I. "Nothing will disturb me."
But I was mistaken; something did
disturb me. I had been dreaming that
I held a door against a man who was
trying to push his way Into a room and
that another one had Just fired a re
volver through a window at Carrie. My
dream and the story I had heard be
fore I went to bed were mixed In my,
mind as I was roused by the careful
moving of a door.
Half asleep I rolled out of bed and
reeled Into the dark kitchen. Bang went
a chair on the floor, while a knock on
tho shins, with the noise, brought me
to my senses. A quick heavy step
started from the other end of the room,
and, with a rush, some one sprung up
on me. He was a powerful man, but
Yale athletics served a good purpose.
Some wild passes were made on both
sides In the dark, but there were others
that were not wasted.
How we did hustle around that old
kitchen. Chairs, tins, pans and every
thing movable tumbled about and made
a terrlbja din. But science tells, and I
soon had him at a disadvantage, though
he struggled hard and we fell against
a sharp corner. It was the closet. In a
twinkling I Jiad the door open. Before
he knew It, I swung him around, when
a sudden charge backed him against
the wall. Instantly the door slammed
and I turned th.hlg button.
Another burglur was a prisoner In
the lockup.
Yty this time th"re were voices some
where and a litxbt bernn to shine. I
suddenly realized that I had not been
fighting in armor, und at the first pros
pect of a vlvandiere's approach I ran
like a very coward from the victorious
field. Hastening to my nom, I began
to Jump Into more presentable clothing.
"Is that you, Patrick?" culled a voice
from the dlBiance. "What's the mat
ter?" "Matther enough, mum Look afther
yersllf; there's a burgulutor in the
noose, mum."
"Where are you?"
"It's In the closet, I am The thavliV
spalpeen locked me Into the closet
bekase I did be near breaktu' the rusli
kllly head of him. .
A laugh from my room, where I was
hurriedly dressing, told them v.ho Pat's
burglar wan. Ills own smothf.red ans
wers had already Indentllled mine. I
expected another round when I opened
the door, but when each saw the other
battered condition both were satisfied.
Next morning, at breakfast, Cunle
Boberly asked grandma whether this
house had been entered, first and laxt,
by three burglars or by one. Grandma
pave up the conundrum, and, not being
asked-! I aid not try. Julius Ilobiuson. 1
IMAGINATION IN WAR.
It Was Mors Dcmorallxlng to Roldirn
Than Kitllet.
' In my opinion," says a well-know
tJnlon soldier, "the Itnnglnatlon of me
does more Injury to the cause of cour
age than all the appliances ol war ye
discovered.
"I knew of a case In the battles ol
the Wilderness, where two of our men
suddenly meeting while s'uragFilrig
threw away their arms, and both mad
for the same tree, a large oak, about
which they dodged for half an hour
trying to escape from each other, be
fore cither regained self-command

"I had a remarkable case happen U

another man, but I was part of It. II

behind a log with two other men 1

was an Inveterate Joker, and the other
was one of the Imaginative kind of sol

that ho was almost scared out of his
wits, and when the bullets and shells
began flying through 'the woods, cut
ting off saplings, clipping limbs all
around us and barking the top of the
log behind which we lay, I thought the
fellow would burst a blood vessel or go
crazy or do some other fool thing un
becoming a soldier. Tom, the Joker,
noticed the man's terror and called my
attention to It.
"Then he reached out and dragged In
a stick cut from the tree above us by
the bullet, and fixing a pin In It pro
ceeded to have his fun. The man was
at the far end of our log, ten feet from
Tom, and I was Just beyond Tom on
the other side, and. I am free to con
fess, was nervous enough to wonder at
Tom's manner at Buch a time. How
sver, I couldn't help watching his move,
ments, and actually laughed to see him
sliding the pin-pointed stick along to
ward the unsuspecting victim. Having
got It at the right distance, he waited
for a smashing volley of bullets, and
Just as It came he prodded the soldier
In the back with the pin. Well, It was
really funny to see the chap Jump and
yell and roll over, and we both fairly
howled. Hut It wasn't so funny when
the man didn't move after his first
startled action ,and Tom looked around
at me In a scared kind of way. His
surprise found expression In an oath.
and he called to the man. There was
no answer and he called again, with
the same result. Then he crept over to
him and gave him a shake. That
brought no response either, ard Tom
dragged him around so he could See his
face. It was ashy blue, with eyes Btar

dead as Julius Caesar, with never a

pin scratch In his back.

soldier, and no doubt would have suf

Trapping Mother Birds.
Oologlsts frequently have trouble In
Identifying the eggs which they find In
nests. The Nldologlst tells how to get
a nesting bird that Is too Bhy to show
Itself for Identification. A. D. Hender
son found a number of nests In tho
reeds about Little Lake, near Barrle,
Ont., but was unable to determine the
species, as he could not catoh sight of
the parent birds. He took the eggs,
trusting to identify them latter.
One day he was meditating. He had
tried snares, watching and a lot of
other ways unsuccessfully. Hanging
in his boat house were a lot of muskrat
traps, and these gave him an Idea. Ho
took several of them, set them In the
nests, and on his return next morning
found two grebes, and was able to
Identify them. One of the grebes had
plunged off the nest Into the water, and
the weight of the trap pulled It under
the water and drowned It. The other
one he took out of the trap and threw
It Into the air, expecting to see it fly
away. But It dropped and went under
the water, and, so far as the man could
see, did not come up again. That ex
plained why the birds were so hard to

Colored Men to the Army.
A colored soldier was on guard at the
City Point wharf. Presently an officer
approached, smoking a cigar. Politely
giving the military salute the dusky
sentinel saidr "Smoking on his dock is
forbidden, Bah!" "Is that the rule,"
asked the officer? "TTes, sah." "A very
good rule," replied Gen. Grant, for It
was he, and he Immediately threw his
cigar Into the river.
The colored man Is noted for his sense
of humor, and he Is not without wit.
During the war a happy darkey was
enjoying himself perched on a hig'h
fence when a squad of rebel prisoners
passed, and John's former master was
among them. "Why, John," exclaimed
he In surprise, "are you up there?"
"Yes, mastah," said John, "and you'll
down dere."
Colored preachers were the authors
of many funny sayings. One of them
was heard earnestly praying, "Lord
bress Massa Llnkum, and douse his
head wld wisdom." Another thus gave
the well-known passage, "Paul may
plant and Apo'.los water, but God giv
eth the Increase:" "Paul may plant and:
polish wld water, but It won't do.'1
A Woman Who liutldi Railroads.
Mrs. Alice E. Cram is the newest of
Boston's new women. She is a railroad
contractor. Nine years ago she started
In business with her husband. Her
business ability was most marked. She
ami her husband contracted for the
foundation work of some of the new
public buildings In Boston, including
the public bridge and tho Albany Kail
road, which Is said to be one of the
finest pieces of masonry In the country.
A year and a half ago Mrs. Cram de
cided to set up In business all for her
self, and she now has her own offices,
with everything under her Bole control.
She employs women alone In the olllee,
believing she gets better work from
them. In addition to her business as a
contractor Mrs. Cram conducts a com
mission business, b tying and selling
the material used In masonry work.
Envy Is needless; for he who works,
saves, and perseveres will get what he
wants.
Japan and Its Future.
Late intelligence from Japan inili
cates a desire on the part of the Gov
eminent and the merchants of that
country to buy both war vessels and
trading vessels in this country if they
can he procured on advantageous
terms. Nothing in the near future
seems more certain than the establish
mcnt of larger profitable direct trade
between the united States and Japan
s they increase the number of their
manufactures they must look to thi
country as a source of supply for
needed raw materials. We may also
expect when better facilities of trans
portation shall have been made avail
able to supply to the Japanese" a part
of the manufactured stuffs which they
have been accustomed to buy in
Europe.
The great market for Japanese
manufactured products will be found
among the swarming millions of Asia
Their nearness to Asiatic ports, their
knowledge of the peculiar wants of
Asiatic consumers and the special
treaty advantages obtained as the frui
of the late war with China combine
to make certain for the people of the
Island Empire of the Orient a home
trade equal to their utmost capacity
of production and secuie from success
ful competition. It is not at all likely
that Japanese manufacturers will be
diverted from their natural markets
to engage in competion for posses
sion of European or American trade.
except in so far as it may be incidental
to the exchange of silk, tea, camphor
and other special products for needed
cotton, lumber, grain and the more
advanced manufactures of America
and Europe.
The enormous amount of wood
used every year for the purpose of
making paper may be estimated from
the fact that the Petit Journal of Pris
which has a circulation of over i,ooo,
ooo copies a day and is printed on
wood pulp paper, consumes in a year
120,000 fir trees of an average height
of 66 feet. This is equivalent to the
annual thinning of 25,000 acres of
forest land.
