The fishinp floet hl M-t out early in
tl.o tnornintr. The atmosphere was
very eiear ami the In.ats rouM still Ik;
i...n in the distance, strung out in a
line across the horizon between the
1 lieaeh ami the Pomte le t ayeux.
few sailors' wives, children and old
men still loitered on the jetty, all in
excellent humor, for with such weather
there should certainly he a line haul of
11-Ii. The sea was admirably blue; but,
lasiicd bv the wind, it broke into little
waves which rushed, white-capped,
toward the shore.
iv, y,ni see it yet, mamma?" asked
n, little leliow who had stayed away
from school that morning in order to
tste his father start with the llect.
,11 is mother had a marine jrlasi a
luxury that her neighbors envied her.

He would have remained a lonir time
v. at. hitio; his father s sloop as it prew
f.iut.fior and smaller in the distance,
b,;V his mother led him away. They
must tr buck to the house to their
work.
Tl:.-v loitered alonp: the h.arlxir,
which" had l- -t its animation now that
it;. Ii ;-t of lishino; craft was -rone.
On the si. ie toward the town a few

hl. iici-hl.rs l.a.1 run to learn the rea

YVhv had he come back?

11.. avi nbmt tr p-rt to the Ilardinc
when one of his sailors saw him and I EtOry Of
came after him. Compelled to return
to his vessel he had time to rellecU A
sudden tit f rare. a litrht, would prove
nothinjf, and he would never know the
truth.
So he calmly watched the work of
reparation w hich was cominron apace.
At two o'clock his wife brought him
his lun.-heon; at live his son came to
kiss him friMxl-by. and that evening he
set sail arain. after having seen the
Harding leave Treport for England.
The followino; Saturday. afV'r a terri
ble tempest, the ii-dinf Ileet returneil
to Tretiort laden with a line catch of
fislu .Master Fournier looked quickly
to see if the Kttjjlish three-master were
at the qiviy. hut she was not there.
Iise:lllarkiug, he learn-nl that the
Hardin? had (fone down in sio-ht of
Spitehead, and that all on board had
been lost.
Harry Evans, then, was dead. His
wife alone knew the truth; he would
not dare to question her; he would
never know the truth he would doubt
her al ways.
From that time everyone in Treport
remarked that Master Fournier had
rown taciturn; they askitl his wife
the reason, but she replied evasively
that she did not know.
II is sailors found him roupher than
liefore and more avaricious. He often
returne.1 to Treport on Sunday morn
ing and left ao-.iin the same evenin"
without, a night's rest
One week he came back on Tnesdaj-,
and the news spread that the St. Lau
rent had brouirht back the corpse 01 a
drowned man. According- to the cus
tom of that part of the coast. Master
Fournier had friven orders to return to
port, losing his catch of fisii, in order
to bury the deaiL
Accompanied by two of his sailors he
made his deposition Wfore the com
missioner and the latter had him sijn
the declaration . that "the body of a
drowned man had been recovered by
the St. Laurent at a point fifteen miles
Iv-sW of Spithead, measuring five feet
ten inches in height, dressed in a blue
woolen shirt, trousers of gra3 cloth
and neckerchief of red cotton; 110
papers, no marks to establish identity;
w.pposej, from the place of drowning,
i-.i default of other evidence, to have
been one o 1 the crew of the Harding."
Farly the next morning a funeral
pnees-ion traversed the village and
b re to the little church the remains of
the unknown sailor found by the St.
Laurent. J'.ehind the colVm walked the
s tilors of the St. Laurent, their master
at their head, and behind the men
came the wives or mothers of the
sailors.
The religious ceremony was brief,
hut respectfully followed, and the un
known dead was conducted to the
..metery by the great family of sailors
of Treport, who honor themselves in
thus honoring the remains of others. .
'Ih-t y. arrives ready, announced
M.udcr. Fournier to Ins men; we g" u
l".;;riiier led his wife to a little knoll
t ... t... .t... .
a low pue'-s away irui n -..
lie wished to speak with her without
wittf'-ses.
'Wile." said he. "do yon know for
whom you have come to pray?"-
She trembl.'.l and pr.-s'l her hus
b.iiiil's han.L She had never seen hi in
e solemn.
"The man we had just buried was
Harry Kvans wait!"
M me. Fournier turned pale. Her hus
IkuvI ten.h-red her a paper, stained as if
with water.
Wife. I have doubted you. My pun
ishment is to accuse myself of iU I
read the letter he dared write yon and
I have be-n very misTable. The other
nij-ht, w hen this drowned man was
found. I alone searched htm. 1 could
not show t others, not even to the
commissioner, the only paier he had
on him, in a little bag of oiled silk.
The water had diminett.il. a little, but I
read it nevertheless."
.It wa- the answer written to the.
handsome Fnglioh sailor by Mine. Four-
a Wild Niaht
the Plains.
Ride on
It was the end of a scorchinp day in
August, 1S40.
The herbage -f the prairie, which a
month before had been g-reeu a- 1 suc
culent, was w ithered to its taproots.
The sun had drunk the last drop from
ihe slough bottoms, and the mud beds
were criss-crossed with cracks till they
looked as if they never would hold
water again.
At last the sun had, set, and. tired
out from a long day's hunti lg, I
tethered my thirsty horse and
lay down myself. I hail bur
rowed with my heel and my knift fully
eighteen inches below the en st of
mud. but had failed to find water. I
know it would be morning betore
enough moisture would filter into the
hole to satisfy the thirst of tin abste
mious .'round hot;.
A few ill-tempered mosquitoes buzzed
around, but I succeeded in driving them
oil with a pipe of tobacco before going
to sleen
I cannot tell how- long I slept -fore
I was awakened bv the wild snorting
and struirglin'' of my horse, Peter.
L-r..,- that the sham clatter of
his hoofs noon the hard ground at msed
m. while at the same moment 1 be
came conscious oi a btrange chjking
sensation.
"tlieat God Fire!" I excli-imed.
.,;..,r;.i-r to iiiv feet and rushing in
the direction of toy horse.
The wind, which had barely waved
the spindly grass when 1 had laid
down, w as now blowing quite strongly,
and a dense, black smoke rolled lore
it along the prairie and envdoped
everything hi obscurity. Throu i this
murky mass, and aliove it, I cou d dis
tinctly se a dull red glow.
"Soh, l'eter. soli!" I called as I
groiH',1 my way toward the poor frigh;
cned I torse, who was securely tethered
bv the fore foot, and evidently believed
himself deserted.
' Soh, I'etcr, st.hr My hand was
upon htm and he whinnied at the
touch, then sttxnl trembling while I
bitted him and threw the saddle upon
his back.
As soon as I had cinched the girths I
cut the rawhide lariat from his fcUock,
then sto kI motio!ile.-s for one instant
while 1 listened to determine v l other
I colt hi rpare the paltry time neeetsary
to take up the tether rope frol 1 the
other end.
The heated air blew into my face,
and now and then pieces of burnt grass
llitted by me, but it was not either of
these warnings that made my heart
:.to with fear. It was the dull.
thundering rumble of a stampt -le u

too well, for I had heard it uikj lie
fore on the bauks of the l'ipcston i.
"Masy, whoa. Fete," I said sev -rely,
as the hors2 began plunging vio ently
in his efforts to free himself fro.n re
straint. 1 hesitated no longer, but flunp my
self upon his back, and he prang madly-
away over , the amuke skroudeu
prairie.
Mile after mile we raced along over a
comparatively unknown country,
of badger aud gopher holes, and not

Against the glowing background 1
could see the vast herd surging and
rolling up behind me like a tossing sea,
as the huge heads of the buffahn-s wen?
lifted or sunk from view Iveneath the
cuininon surface of their foam-flecked
backs. It was magnificent, but it was
terrible! "What would Ive my lot when
overtaken?" I asked myself.
la my despair I looked along the line
for Peter, without for one moment ex
pecting to see him, but he wis t here,
struggling along just in front of the
foremost buffaloes. 1 knew in an in
stant that 1 could look for no assistance
from him. for he had all he could do to
keep himself from falling lveueath the
crushing hoofs of the herd
Then 1 thought of firing the grass on
the far side of the slough when I
reached it, and so perhaps turn or stop
the stampede. P.ut matches 1 hail not
and flint and steel were too slow.
There was not a moment to lose, for
already I was at the edge ot the mud
and alvotit to plunge into the tall grass
again. There was no help for it: 1
must try the flint and stecL As I thrust
my hands into my pockets to search f-.r
them, I glanced to estimate how luiv-h
grace I had before the herd would be
upon me. In doing so my i-ilnnv came
in contact with the powder horn at my
licit, and gave me an inspiration, to
which I owe my life.
I 'rawing my hand from my pocket I
seized the horn and wrenched off the
top; then turning to n patch of thick
grass 1 poured out the ih.wu.t. 1 nn
slung the rllle from my shoulder and,
placing the muzzle, close to the little
black heap, pulled the trigger. A
lurid flame and a cloud of w hite smoke
shot up from the grass, but f r a
moment I feared the scheme was a fail
ure, for the spot where the powder had
lain shiwed no signs of fire. An in
stant later, however, I saw two or three
little flames burning feebly in the old
grass fully four feet away.
To the largest of these flames I
sprang and falling upon my knees, bent
a handful of grass to feed it. It .vav an
anxious moment, but it took lire. Pull
ing another handful, I lighted it and,
running along the edge of the slough,
set tire to the grass as I went.
lly the time this torch hud burned
out, the lirst lire had gained considera
ble headway and already great tongues
ot flatne were curling and licking along
the surface of the ground fully a hun
dred feet from the starting point-
I turned to see what effect it would
have on the buffaloes and saw w ith re
lief that the leaders were swerving,
some to the right and stime to the left,
to avoid the new danger in front of
thera.

slough sides at the rate of twenty-live
miles an hour. Itefore they reached
the end of the slough the flames had
rounded the corners, and were rapidly
closing in to meet the tire which 1 had
started.
In an instant the whole troop was
thrown into confusion and .with wild
bellows of terror the demoralized
creatures of the now divided herd
began racing recklessly round the cir
cle of fire which, owing to the high
w ind and the weight of the grass, con
tinued to burn long after the fore 1

it in time to prevent another tragedy
alxmt to occur under judicial sanction.
"Many years ago the farmers ot some
of the "tvi.riler counties of Pennsylvania
and Maryland had Wen for a long time
vi.-tiiu-of horse and sheen thieves, w ho

erty. A young German named Conrad
Winter, who was Ixmnd to a woman
named G.xxlwin, of Parkston, ML,
was arrest itl. charged with being con
cerned in the thieving, and he was
convicted and sentenced to six years in
the penitentiary. This was in 1 :;.
One day in the fall of lsl'.i Mrs. C harles
CtMipcr, wife of a prominent farmer
who lived near Parkston, w ent to that
village to do si mie shopping. Among
other things that she purchased was a
pair of slnx's for herself of peculiar
make. When she left the village to
walk home it was nearly dark. She
carried an alpaca umbrella with a yel
low stain on one side of it. Her pur
chases were in a paper tiaekage. Mrs.
Ctx.per was fond of snuff, and always
carried a supply in a handsome silver
snuff box, which she ha I had filled at
the store on this visit to Parkston.

stranger had tranilied through the vil

Wrcd that he carried an umbrella and
a paper parcel. L'fforts were al once
made to get trace of the stranger, but,
bey-ind the fact that persons traveling
over the road ln-twecn Parkston and
York, Pa., had seen two men going to
ward the latter place in company each
with an umbrella, each with a paticr
parcel, an.l each in the iolliestof humor
wherever seen nothing to give the
people of Parkston a clew to the
stranger with an umbrella and paper
parcel could lie discovered. Then de
tectives from Jialtimore were put on
the case.
"i'a.il Kunkel, w hen he died only a
short ime ago in York, aged T'.l years
was one of the "no, t conspicuous and
resjvecU-d citizens of that city. In 1-4'J
he had U-eu a citizen 01 York for sev

with" a character Ix-yond reproach. He
had a w ife and" three children, and all
were deis.ut Catholics. In the fall of

This was of no avail, and Paul Kunkel
was convicted of the murder of Mrs.
Ctvoper and sentenced to lie hanged the
following September, on a day w hich
proved to be the anniversary of the
murder. Executive clemency could
fit.t le obtained, although the bishop
if the diocese earnestly interested him
self in the condemned man's Wha'.f, as
did many prominent and influential
persons among them the late Judge
Jeremiah S. P.Jack. All hope was gone
for the unfortunate man, but not until
eight days before the day his sentence
was to have liocn executed did he
show that he appreciated or under
sUmmI his awful situation. On that
day Kunkel' s counsel was surprised to
receive a message from the prisoiu r
asking for an immediate interview.
Tlie counsel on entering Paul's cell
saw that a remarkable change had
come over him. His mind had cleared,
