For several days Forg had boon at work in the barn, wttb. doors lockod, and a mantle of secrecy seemed to be thrown over every thins; bo did, both outside and in. Mr. Fop-fT questioned him in Tain. All she could elicit from the man of mystery was divers stranp anil awe inspiring primnce which were calculat ed to infuse tbe lx-holdcr with the be lief that tho manipulator of said grim aces was the victim ot a bcviTe attack of cramp colic Mrs. Fojjj, in an nnjruarded moment, confliliil to a few of her most intimate cronies her fears that her husband was a little bit off in his upper Hnry, and these busy-lxxlies speedily circulated tho report that Fir? really was crazy. It was Itelioved, of course, and chil dren fought shy of tho Yoffg domicile, especially after dark. Fogy's praies, which were just petting; ripe, eeapod . - A, ii i i.. uepreuators as tuey nan neviT uone in i fuee. and Vn"i wondered e-reatlv thero- ! at. but was far from suspecting the real cause of this minvle. And still, day after day, Fofrg- labored on in the security of the barn, his nearest neighbors amusing themselves by listen ing to the lounding f his hammer, and remarking to one another that it was too bad, the affliction that had befallen Kojrfr- One evening; Fojjff rushed into tbe presence of his wife and exclaimed, tri umphantly: "It's done, at last!' Mrs. oftg straightened up and looked at her husband. "What is 'done at last,' Mr, Fopgr she asked. "Why. the flyinjr-maehine, of course, was the reply. Mrs. Fopir regarded her husband pity ingly, for a few moments. "Mr. Fogg." she remarked, finally, with a rising inflection, "do you mean to say that you have gono and wasted two weeks valuable time trying to build a flyinj-machine?" Mr. Fogg said that he did mean it. but as for the time beinjr wasted, ho denied this, and he entered Into such a spirited and eloquent explanation of his great iu vent ion and its workings, that Mrs. Fogg herself became enthused to such an extent as to allow of her being pre vailed upon to go down to the barn and take a look at the machine. What she saw there it will be impos sible to describe with any degree of Ac curacy. Only Fogg could do that, and, I verily lx-liove, if he were sitting here in my place, doing the describing act him self, that ho would be unable to. do the caso full justice. Suffice it to say that ho had constructed a thing having a wicker frame, made so as to just fit upon his back, after the fashion of a saddle, with straps or bands to buckle around his body, while two monstrous wings, also made of wicker-work and covered with thin cloth, were attached to the fame, and on each side, by binges. On the lower side of each w-ing were two stout leather loops, through which the operator was to thrust his arms and by means of which he was to work the wings, up and down when in the act of flying. It was a great invention so Fogg said, and he ought to know something about it, having made tho machine, but Mrs. Fogg was skeptical. Women al ways art skeptical and suspicious of any thing which they do not under stand, you know. Hut Fogg was so enthusiastic that Mrs. Fogg couldn't find heart to ;givo Tent to all the doubts which she ex perienced regarding the power of this thing to overcome the force. -of gravity and sail through space like tbe birds of the air, with a passenger presumably Fogg, dangling beneath like a hugo worm in the bill of one of those same birds; so she held her peace, kept still, sorono in the thought that if Fogg, in his flight through space on the back or rather, beneath the body of his wild, untamable flyi air-machine, should accidentally knock the cupola off the state bouse on Venus, or butt his brains out against the southwest corner of Jupiter, he would have no one to blame for it but himself. But Fogg experienced no misgivings; had no fears. lie was so tickled over the successful completion of his flying rrachine that he slept scarcely a wink that night, and he was up with the larks next morning, making preparations for what he thought was going to be the greatest lark of his life. 1 After breakfast be got his flying-machine out of the barn, and, accompanied by Mrs. Fogg, went down back of the ' bog-lot to a high bluff which was there. From this point Fogg decided he would take a rise in the world. And in the es timation of his neighbors and the public At large as well. It was his intention to fly outover tho river, circle around over the village, and return U the starting point with great tcUt and flapping of wings. Yes, that was the y rogramme Fogg had mapped out, but, owirig" to certain uik jpvewd developments, he but there! we'll go ahead and toll you all about it. Fogg took off his coat and got down on bis hands and knees, while Mrs. Fogg placed tbe flying machine upon bis back and strapped the same securely to his bdy. Then Fogg ran his arms through the loops on the under side of the wings, arose to bis feet, took up a position on the lge of tbe cliff, and was all ready to do tbe great flying act. Mrs. Fogg looked over the edge ef tho cliff to the ground thirty or forty feet 1m1ow and shuddered. "Joshua."- she said, "you had better givo up this toolinb notion ot yours. If you jump over thero you'll Imi killed sure." Fogg was fooling rather dubious him self, but lie. wouldn't let on to bis wife. Oh. pshaw!" be said, 'there's no dan ger whatever That's w!i"ro the beauty of my invention conies in. Without it, to jump olf of here would start ly result in a broken mi lt, but with it there is not the least danger so here goes!" and suddenly spurring himself on to the deed, be ;hut his eyes, gave a big flap with his wings aud jumped with all his might straight out into space, whilo Mrs. Fogg gave a sen-am and fell to tho ground in a faint, her last thought be ing that she was a widow and would have to wour black for six long months. Fogg bad flattered himself that all he would have to do would be to flap bis wings and sail through tho ethereal blue, but he soon found that he had bit off more than he could chew. He flapp-d his wings just once before ho sprung over the bluff. After that he couldn't make the 'tarnal things flap to save him. The wind, as he shot do v n through space, quickly turned the flap pers up edgewise, and, try as he would, t'ogff could not get them down again. He was as helpless as a spitted frog, and very much resembled one. Down he went, for, it seemed to the falling inventor, an eternity, or the larger half of thirteen minutes, at least. He heartily repented of over having in vented, but repentance bad come too late to do bim any good. A vine, grow ing upon An outjutting portion of the bluff, caught Fogg's feet, and turning him a complete somersault, landed him in tbe bushy top of a big elm tree grow ing at the foot of tho bluff, and inventor, flying-niachinu, and all went crashing through the branches of the tree like a baby hurricane, the bewildered Fogg Alighting finally on his intellectual rocoanut in the mud, going in up to his shirt collar and w hopping oTcr onto his back, where ho lay still, dazed, sense less for the time being, while leaves, twigs and small branches of tbe tree, severed by the great inventor and his wonderful flying-machine in their some what burned descent, snowered down upon bim and almost buried him from view. Here he was found presently by his wife, wio had recovered froia her faint ing fit and hastened down to the foot of the bluff by a roundaliout route, and she managed to bring the unlucky inventor to and get him to the house and to bed, where he remained for a week. He was a badly demoralized and di lapidated specimen of humanity. Every muscle and tendon in his body was strained, his nose was knocked out of plumb, several fingers and a thumb wore broken. And, to crown all, his backbone had " telescoped" when be alighted upon his head, thus causing a loss of about six inches in height no small matter to a man only five feet tall to start with. The flying-machine had caught be tween two limbs of the tree as it came down, and, the straps breaking, had lx eomc disengaged from the inventor, and it remained there a source of wonder ment and terror to the birds of the for est until Fogg was able to navigate again, when he came down, secured tho groat invention, took it to the house and chopped it tip into kindling wood. Fogg may at some future time be Again taken with the fever for invent ing, but if he is he will probably not try to invent another flying-machine. Should he do so, however, one would bo perfectly safo in betting big odds that he will get some one else to give it tho first trial. S. A. D. Cox, in Drake's Magazine. A MOONSHINER'S REVENGE. Plot for. a RenaatlonaJ Kavel from the Georgia Court Records. A. few years ago among tho moon shiners in the Fulton County prison was Walter Iilackman, says the Atlanta Journal. On the night of December 13 Illackman and Miss Lulu Hicks were to Tre married. Tbe guests had all ar rived, among whom was a young man named Oeorge Ttlakesley, wbo had been a suitor for Miss Hicks hand. Itlakes ley was a mountaineer himself, or bad been, but had lately traveled about con siderably. The justice was preparing his papers and the bride and groom made their appearance from an adjoin ing room. There was a sound of horses' feet upon the frozen ground outside. More guests arriving? In a few moments a dozen revenue officers armed to the teeth entered the room aad placed Iilackman under arrest. The bride groom was taken to Atlanta,. and thero was no wedding. At the trial Ttlakesley was the principal witness, and he testified as to how he bad pointed out the spot where Iklackman's still was located and then told the ofiicers of tbe wedding. ltlackjuan was sentenced to twelve months imprisonment. As soon as the trial was over Itlakesley hastened back to the heme of Miss Hicks and told her that her lover had been sent to prison for life. For three months afterward Itlakesley pressed hid. suit, and Miss Hicks finally married him. . , . It may have lx-en Itlakealey's inten tion to wait until tho twelve months had nearly expired and to then move to sumo other place with his wife. At the end of six months I'laekruan was par doned, and the story of the interrupted wedding had something to do -with the executive clemency. Klackman went to his home and was told of Miss Hicks' marriage. Ho placed a Winchester on his shoulder, rode over to where Illakesley was Jiv ing, and calling him to tbe door, shot him through the heart. Riding hastily away he disappeared in the woods and has never since been seen. Amanda M. Douglas, the popular novelist, is one of the few living writers who knew Edgar A. Toe personally.

"Why, no," said Mrs. Warron. rather primly and with . a faint frown on her pleasant, well-favored face; "1 can not say I think her pretty. Dr. Collins. Sho is too buxom and too vividly colored, so to speak. "She has vivid coloring, certainly," said the doctor, leaning forward from his seat lx-side Mrs. Warren on the sitting-room lounge-to view the gay juar tette in the parlor to wit: Mrs. War ren's adopted nieco. Marian Morgan, petite, delicate-featured, straight-nosod. soft-eyed; Marian's friend, Dolly" Taylor, tall wnd plump. rl-oheekod. flaxen-haired, blue-eyed; James Fuller, the clever young lawyer of the place, tall, rather dignified, already a menilier of the school board" and talked of for State Representative, and Xird Seely. not of the place, but recently from tho West, shorter and not so dignified, but humorous and jolly and energetic, if somewhat unconventional. That was the quartette, and a thought ful observer might have remarked Mrs. Warren and Dr. Collins, wbo had a set tled habit of dropping in. made siv. "Jim Fuller," the doctor added, "doesn't appear to bo cri tiding her. He seems pretty well suited." Was tho doctor faintly malicious? Mrs. Warren was ambitious and proud of her handsome niece-; James Fuller was much rospeoted, and steadily rising and prospering. Yet Jiere was .Marian's bouncing schol-friend blandly monopo lizing bim. and Marian talking with jocund Ned Seely in a corner. Tbe doctor put up his band to cover a smile. . Mrs. Warren cleard her threat so distressedly that the doctor felt a pan of remorse. "Marian is fond of her," she said, stiffly, "and I have nothing against her." ("Excepting Fuller being mnick with her," thought tho doctor.) "Hut the type of girlhood that best suits me is not hers." She looked at dainty, quiet Marian. Ked Seely's right arm was still in the elbow, and ho was relating to Marian how it had leen hurt. He had boon wrestling vith an olwtinate mustang out in Wyoming and Marion was laughing so much that It was diffi cult for Mrs. Warren to believe her ears. "He's an amusing fellow," Dr. Collins remarked, shifting the subject; "bright as a dollar." "Possibly," said Mrs. Warren, icily smiling. "I think him too talkative and fond of joking. I hardly approve of him." If bo were joking with Dolly Taylor, the doctor thought, it would lie all right. The doctor had been a widower for about tho length of time that. Mrs. Warren had lieen a widow. I'ossjbly there was a link between them and a reason for his clairvoyancy as to her in nermost desires. "What are they up to?" he queried, catx-hing a stray word in Dolly Taylor's gay voice. "Are they going a-sliding?" P. ."Yes," said Mrs. Warren, with a har assed sigh. "It was Mr. Seely's idea, and a harum-scarum plan I consider it. I am afraid it will be; too much for Marian." "Too much what? Too much of Ned Seely?" thought the doctor, irrepress ibly, and wished ho dared say it. But Mrs. Warron was in the parlor, troubled and fidgety, and the doctor followed. Tho quartette was making prepara tions. Dolly Taylor was winding a white scarf around her fair bead; her blooming face -shown forth from it like a rose. Marian was buttoning her long cloak down her trim length with her blue mittened fingers; Mr. Fuller was getting on. his overshoes, and Ned Seely, whilo making unkind jokes about their size, was putting on his muffler with a joy ous flourish, his eyes on Marian. The two big sleds waited out in tho moon light. The doctor followed his hostess, just in time to witness her desperate but de termined suggestion. She had accom panied the four to the hall door and stood there, straight and almost rigid in her anxiety, a wary, potticoatod gen eraL v, . "Mr. Fuller," she said. "I want to ask you to draw Marian to the hill and home again. You have a lame arm, Mr. Seely." (Marian was starting away "with Mr. Seely.) "I don't wish her to walk in all this snow, lior shoes aro thin" 'Why, I have my rubbers. Aunt SarahT said Marian, in gentle wonder. Ilut the young lawyer bowed politely "Certainly!" and assisted Marian to his sled and tramped off with long strides, and Ned Seely followed with Dolly Taylor. Mrs. Warren shut the door with a re lieved sigh and a victorious smile, r Dr. Collins not only bauled, but laughed outright, and then attempted to . disguise the laugh in a yawn. "Well, I've still got to see to Judge Branch's gout to-night," he observed, getting Into his own overcoat, "Sup pose I leave my mcdicine-easo here till I come along back? I shan't need it for the judge; 1 shall advise him to oat less. Then I can boo if the youngsters get home safe," said the doctor, with a faint grin. - - , '"Very well," said . Mrs. Warren, with the calm dignity which the doctor bad . always admired. The long bill was white and hard and honc bright in tho moonlight. Behind the black pines rose, and somewhere among them an owl hooted distantly. "iibostly!" said James Fuller. "You aren't afrtiid of ghosts, Miss Morgan'" said Ned Soi ly. "Not with iue for protection?'".- - w.. -Oh, no!" said Marian, laughing softly. "If I should see a ghost, Mr. Fuller." cried Dolly Taylor, "I'm afraid I should pinch you black and TTlue! Once when I was driving with my cousin we saw some thing white in the road and I clutched his arm till" "Ah! you did?" said Mr. Fuller, in a low voice. "Oh, for a ghost!" IIow, alack! had it come about? Ho was placing lior carefully on his Fled for their flvosandjforticth coast together, looking down rather 'fixedly into her glowicg face as he did so. And Ned Seely and -Marian were half way down tho bill, going at so breathless a rato that Marian put forth a timid, uncon scious hand, to bo warmly grasped, though; not so unconsciously, by her cavalio;. -By what subtle, irresistible means, then, had it como about? - .- "I'm afraid it's.lato," said Marian, borno easily up the tslopo on Neds mus cular left arm. , . .. Uo looked at his watcli. "Half-past six," bo said, unblushing ly, and was rew arded by Marian's sweet toned mirth. "For shame, Dolly rhe called to the . lagging pair behind. "We must go. It must bo ten o'clock." , "Oh!"' cried Dolly, with a gurgling laugh, "and I've a letter to write to mamma, and all my bangs to put iu curl-papers." ' ! Just thero the Enow had been worn to the slipporiness of ice,, and her foot slipped- Down she came with tho sub: stantial thud of a hundred and thirty pounds, and did not rise. James Fuller bent above her. "Hurt?" hegasped, with an arm around her which inayhavo accounted for Dol ly's calmness. i "Yes." she rejoined, promptly. "You don't think. I would continue in tUis hu miliating attitude if I wasn't hurt. My anklos sprained." , "Oh, Dolly!' Marian faltered in pit-. "Miss Taylor!'' .

Who could be happier than Solomon? His land was at peace; his treasury full; bis power acknowledged by the nr.tiotis: bis fleet covere d the sens: his court at tracted the best and wisest. learning and scienco, art and the industries flour ished. Jerusalem, the c:ipit;.l, shone vlh unexampled splendor; its temple and edifices were the glory (.f the ae, and thousands of ttrangers drew near from nil corners of the earth. . Yet Solomon wr.r, ill at ease despite his grandeur. His wisdom, the source of his strength, was also the secret of bis weakness. He know all languages, spoke three thousand proverbs, and sang a multitude of songs. He knew the speech of birJs and beasts, and the mystery of trees and flowers. If bis knowledge hrid not passed these limits all would have leen well, but it tran scended things of earth and penetrated the secrets of the spheres aliove. It was his familiarity with tho stars that g:ive hi in poignant unrest. What, tlien. did the stars tell bim? What dreadful ca tastrophe was threatened bis lio'.ise.' Those golden-eyed forget-me-nots sinn ing in the firmament of blue so peace fully and trustfully, could they presage, woe? Solomon was blessed not only with power and wisdom, but also with a daughter of surpassing loveliness. Wben the evening shadows fell upon Zion's hills ho loved to sing to her his choicest song. In the morning hour-, his converse with her was his solo recrea tion. His soul was knitted to hers. She was his inspiration and solace, as was her mother iu the days of his youth, when to wed tho maiden of his heart bo left throne and people, and wandered, a foot-sore pilgrim, until he met Naama and plighted his troth. The yenrs had passed rapidly since then as rapidly as the shado-.v of a bird in flight: but Sol onion lived again his old-time romance as he saw Naama'seyesin his daughter's countenance. And the l'rincess repaid the father's lovo by a daughter's devo tion. One evening as Solomon was observ ing the stars the thought occurred to him ti discover w ho was destined to bo the Princess' hushand. Long and intent ly he gazed at the constellations. Si lent and profound were his meditations in the watches of the night; and then, just as the first dim light spanned the far East, and the morning stars were singing their cradle-song for the new day. tho monarch's heart felt an unac customed pang. Ho read the secret of his daughter's fate. There it stood blazoned cn the fiery constellation she was to wed the poorest man in Israel! she, a l'rincess, and his daughter! With agonized aoul Solomon left his watch-tower. For once the rising day possessed no charm for him. Bird note, flower-fragrance, the music cf rip pling" waters, the magnificence of his surroundings, his lMks and songs and favorite pastimes, palled upon him. His lovely daughter in vain strove to soothe his disturlx'd spirit. Each fresh en dearment only increased his irritation. Her voice, once so gentle, seemed to him as harsh as the scream of the copdor. The maiden's heart was troubled indeed as sho noticed the change in the King, and sho withdrew, ' weeping, from his presence. "It. shall not bo!" Solomon exclaimed. My daughter wed a beggar! A pau per's child to sit upon the throne of David! Nay, I shall defeat the Al mighty. I shall" And there fell a deep silence on his spirit, A picture from the past arose before his vision. It was a king hurled from his throne on account of his pride, and doomed to wander unknown, and to suffer severe privations, until he bad learned to control himself and trust the Almighty.' He saw the ring which he gave Ashmodai, and heard the tierce yell of triumphs as the demon ascended the throne, while he Solomon the Groat sank down, down into an un fathomable abyss. Then another pict ure arose in memory tho weary f ugi; i vo spurned on all sides, famine-stricken and sick at heart, until the lesson of peace was learned. "Forgive mo, forgive me. Almighty!" he cried. "Must I learn again the cost of. mortal pride? Forgive me for doubt ing Thy purposes and measuring my puny powers with Che Infinite! Lot Thy will be done. I shall watch Thy wisdom and abide by the result. My heart has lost its anguish and its foar." Upon tho rooky sea-coast Solomon bad a lofty tower constructed. Walls high -and inao-essible surrounded it on all . sides. People wondered at the build . ing, -but Solomon continued the work .until it. was completed. Thither one night he had the. Princess brought, and placed her in charge of seventy aged custodians. '"This shall l your home," said he to tho eldest and trustiest. "It is pro visioned for years to come. There is no door to the fortress, so no ono can enter without the aentinel s knowledge. Bo vigilant. Your, head shall be tho price of your remissness!" The days, the weeks, tho months flew by. Ono night a poor traveler was wandering along, tired and hungry, bis clothing tattered, his heart utterly east down- At last ho could walk no farther, such was his exhaustion, and seeking a spot to rest, he saw tho skeleton of an ox-in a neighlwrinp field. Thankful for the. shelter from the w ind, ho crept in side, and, with a silent prayer to God, fell asleep.

Tho burden then proving too heavy, it was set down on the roof before the door of tho beautiful Prin cess. Then the bird Qcvj away with a shrill scream that awakened the young traveler. He arose in terror, gazed aMut. him, and began to walk up and down the roof, from which ho could descry only the rocks below and the clouds alxive. In the distance he saw the fast-disappearing pinions of the bird that had brought him there, and a sharp pang smote bis heart as the full measure of his wretchedness was re alized. Suddenly he doscrior. a woman ad vancing toward him. She is young and lieautiful, and with a comman ling air, yet gracious and kind. It was the Princess taking her daily stroll on the roof, who, astonished at the sight of the youth, exclaimed: "Who art thou? How earnest thou here?" "I am a .lew of Aeoo," was the reply. 'It was a bird that brought mo." "llut you are tired and tattered," she continued. "Your face bears the marks of nisory. You look troubled and suffering. Come, tell me your history." He told her of his wanderings and how ho had sunk to rest in the skeleton of an ox, and then of bis flight through the air. And she listened entranced to his story, admiring his courage and sympathizing with his sorrows. She bud bim clothed in now garments. Ili-r servants bathed and annointod Lim. Then his eyes shone with new radiance nu I bis w hole being assumed a lovelier aspect. As they spoke and strolled to gether kindred tastes were revealed. For t he first t imo the l'rincess realized the beauty in her father's words w hich lit; had written decades before: "My friend is mine and I am his;" while the youth, as he contemplated the solitary lower and the imprisoned maiden, exclaimed with Solomon: "A locl;od-up garden is my sister-bride, a lockod-un spring, a sealed fountain'." The north wind blew and the south win I blew. They loved, fur lioth were beautiful to each other and the World was lief ore them. hat should they do? Fly, and seek happiness in some distant spot far uway fro.n the King? "Nay. my beloved!" she exclaimed. '"My father's wisdom, would dis.-ovt.-r our hiding-place, and ,!i-s chieftain Me naiah would drag us T ack to Jerusa lem."' "There is one resource, dearest," be replied, after a pause. "Marry me here." "Marry you? Yes, that I will; but hot can we marry according to the law of Israel? Whore is the ink with which to write tho marriage certificate?" "Despair not, leloved. 1 am prepared for every emergency." He band bis arm. and ojM'in d a fniall vein. us-d bis blood as ink and the marriage was secretly solemnised, with the words: "May God bo my witness to-day, and the angels Michael and Gabriel." Their spell of happiness was brief. The custodians of the l'rincess wefe thrown into tbe wildest consternation when they discovered what had taken place. They stormed, they raged; t hey threatened. But it was too late to argue with the pair. No more time was to Ik lost, so they hastily sent the swiftest-footed of their number to the royal palace, and tho story was soon told. Solomon at once ordered his mantle to lie brought. It was of green silk, inter woven with fine gold and embroidered with images of ail kinds. He sat upon it. and swiftly was Inirne on the wind to the solitary tower. "Where is the youth," he cried, as be gained entrance, "who has dared marry my daughter'.'" "Nay, father," tbe Princess pleaded, "be not angry with bim. Reproach me, but spare him, for love is our master, and thou didst write in thy 'Song of Songs:" 'Ixve is as strong as death.'" "So thou art the man who has pre sumed to marry a Princess! be ex claimed, scornfully, as the youth was brought to him. VO King, be not too severe. 1 but obeyed the words of Solomon: 'Many waters aro not able to quench love, nor can the rivers flood it away.'" "Who is thy father, and where thy dwelling-place?" inquired the King. "I am the son of - poor .lew of Acco," was the answer. '".Yltamar is his name." And. the youth's heart grieved as he thought of his family's poverty. "What!" quickly rejoined the King. "Tho son of Altamar of Acco, tbe poor est man in Israel?" "Yes, O King;"" and the youth trem bled, but regained his courage as he saw the Princess step forward and take her place proudly at bis side. "He is my husband," she exclaimed, "according to tins kiws of Israel. With his blood he has sealed our troth." "He i i inde-d thy husband and in y son." said Solomon, beckoning both to approach bis throne. "Tle-u url the very man who the star:i to! i me v.v.s des tined for my (laughter.
