Dr. E. II. Buss in " Wavcrlcy." A enrnvan consisting of mloicnmtilo teams, paused Just as tlio sun, round and glowing with a molten red, tank down on tlio horizon ot tlio lovel pratrlo. Around them on cither sido tor many miles the grass grew tall and rank, In terspersed liero and there with a great vorlety of (lowers. There was not n trte to be seen, or, Indeed, a bush or twig. Willi a great show of activity, tho people unhitched their teams and built a fire In their portable stoves. " V n-K-s, that's my opinion exactly. This yar spot about the center of the great prairie Is juet tho loveliest piece of natur in the world. You can't find Its equal this tldo of the llockics." " I wasn't tlilnkln' about tho blue grass of lllynol, jetlgo, when I went for to assert that this ere, was a fitio plctur, with tlio &un over there turning every thing to crlniion and yellow perhaps there might be finer scenes than this, I rcprat." "Wal, Colonel Quenten, wo will leavo that to Li 7.0 Here, ytu, gal, coma here. What do think of that grass over there, lookln' as If It was n burnln' ?" "Think? I don't think nothln', Jedge Long; its far away, nnd I had rather tend tho bacon than listen to your yarns." " That's the wuy 'tis with that gal ; she. ain't got so much sentiment ns an outcast Indian." "Never you mind, judge, when it comes meal timo you won't forget to get your share of corn pone or fried ba con and coffee cither. Let alnno your Hue talk about tlio prairie ; Hint tl on ' t amount to much long side of n square meal. Now, does it ?" " Quite right, Lize," said the judge. " Decidedly," gruffly respouded the colonel. Tho girl went about her duties, pro paring tho evening meal for tho two men and her father, who, by the way, was as blunt spoken aud homely as his daughter. Colonel Quenten and Judgo Long wero quite original characters In their way. This was their lirs,t trip across the plains, which thpy undertook in the general excitement then reigning about tlio finding of gold. Falling In with Jonas Clark and ills daughter, who wero about to cross the plains, they made ou agreement with them which, before the Urst Jozeti of miles out from St. Louis he had nigh broken by pro posing to squat. To fix matters ' more eatlslactoiily to themselves, tlio two adventurers settled tho case by buying the entire team, mules and nil, undtak lug the old man and his daughter along "for boot," ns old Clark expressed It. They wero now 0110 of a dozen of similar teams, whoso shadows looked liku wigwams in tho semi darkness that had now formed around them. After their repast the three men sat around the catnp-stovo and smoked, and Llzu did the dishwashing. " Wal, colonel, the wear and tear of travel is a tcllln' on ye mighty hard. How ye would like bo in 'FrNco, now wouldn't ye, alona with the nuggets yo are supposed to pick up on the wav. There'b no telllu" how long we'll bo In gettiu' thar, though, lie added sorrow fully. Tho colonel had lived In tho west from boyhood, uud well knew what it was to share a comfortable farmer's life, aud sighed audibly ut tho former's remarks. " Ye kin jest bet your bottom dollar I wish I was thar, baek in llliuois, where I come from. These here wastes around, without a shrub or tree, do not please me or Lizo uary time, aud I'm sure " What his next words would have been the two men were nover to know lu this world, for at tho last word old Clark doubled himself up nt their feet a corpse, while n thin puff of smoke curled up and disappeared just nrouud tho comer of tlio wagon. " Who fired that bholl" exclaimed th? colonel, as both slatted to their feet and seized tho rltles. There was not so much as a shadow to be seen nothing but tho huge can vas of the wagon Happing now and then agalust tho wheels. The moon shone brightly across tho undulating plaiu, but gaze as they would, not a sign could they discover of the origin ot the shot. Stranger still, the neighboring ramps around them did not appear to ba cognizant of tho fact that a man had b"cn killed. Tlio men looked lu to the team whero Liza was sleeping. " Wake up, gal, wake up ? Wo want ye to hurry and get yer duds on, for something strange has hapyeued." Old Clnrk lay where he had fallen, with a bullet through his forehead ; there was no mistaking that he was dead beyond a venture. When Llze beheld what had happen ed, the uttered a piercing bcieaui and then fell down beside him. "No use takln' the matter to heart, Llzu ; what's did Is pat mending. Your father has been aisassluutcd by uuknown bauds, and who has done It Is what tuo and the jetlgo dou't know but If there bo vnigwuice, gal, It shall surely overtake the acouudrvl." " Yen you bell'' A new voice uttrtl those word a vo-lca that Mine front the opposite side of the wagon. Then the stranger came out luto full view a perfect ciant, JdreMHl from had to foot in a suit of I buck. kin. lie bore iu his hand a ritle, which he droned to the ground and leaned opuo It. "What has happened-a man shot, with a gal a-liowlUi' for hltu I Uow do je account for It, stiang't?" "Easy enough; tho man has been shot by somo sneakln' coward who knows well nhcro to hldoJlhtmselt from our bullets." "Yo don't mean to lntlmato that I'm under suspicion ofdoln' the deed, do ye? for If ye do I can furnish proof enough that thero ain't so much ground for that belief ns thero Is that;i scalped n muskecter with this yer bowlo-knlfe. No, Dili;tho Hanger, Is mnde of differ ent kind of stuff. That was a sneakln' act." "Wo don't know who did tho deed," said tho colonel, "hut it's been done, and what wo want to know Is who tho individual Is, that wo may glvo htm his Just deserts. ' "Qoodl I'm with ye, stranccrs, on that condition. I'm Bill the Itanger, at your service. I just got hero from a little buffler expedition with poor suc cess, but that doesn't raako any differ enco. I kin tell by tho gal's grief that ho was a kind fathnr, nud sj I'vo got my mind on avangln' him." Hardly had ho said these words be fore tho sharp report of a rifle broko on the night air, followed by tho whiz of a bullet, nnd the colonel's loft arm dropped by his slpo like n lump of lead. The ranger nnd tlio judge were on the nl lert. Both saw tho smoko ns it rolled away even smelled tho powder, but, ns before, not a hide of hair ot an enemy was visible. Tho canvas back ot the wagon flapped a few times, then the same deathlike stlllnesd that rcsgned before. "Ghost or devil there's death In the man that stays hero long," said tlio ranger, taking a few strides toward the direction from whence the shot had como. The colonel drew his revolver nnd followed In the step of the ranger. Carefully they searched tho whole space of ground for a considerable dis tance. Peoplo from other camps came over to seo what tlio troublo was, and when they learned what had happened great was tho anxiety to seo whero tho mysterious shot came from. But search an they might nothing beyond a few buffalo bones, whitened and dried, ro warded them. Tho colonel's wound was not so bad but ho could stand watch. Tho ranger was to be awakened It thero were signs of tlio enemy; while Lize after covor ing her father's body with a blanket, got Into tho team and sobbed herself to sleep. ''Seen anything?" nsked the ranger, when the lolonel shook him to let him know that it was lib turn to stand watch. "Nary a ghost, but tho huur of mid night is hero, and time for such visits, and seein' ns yo nie to watch let's rouse the judge and tako a smoke, l'erhaps there's more danger ahead." "Hight; and if I don't get winged at short notice I'll let into somebody for certain." The three men filled their pipes, lighted them, and set down with their rifles cocked, aril watched tho dim shadows around them. All was quirt as death, not a sound oven fiom the mules broke the still ness of tho mid night hour. "What is that I hear?" asked the judge, after a lung silence. Footstep, are approaching." 'Great Ileavensl Look! look!" They all grasped their rltles with 0110 accord, and arose and faced what sesmed t' Ihetu a terrlblo apparition. Nut forty yards away, and coming to wards them witli gigantic strides, was the colossal figure of a man, or what seemed to bo a man, clad from head to foot in n long flowing white garment. It lowered above them at least ten feet, while from the placo supposed to be tho mouth Issqed a sulphurous light. It carried no weapon that was visible, but haidly had tho three faced it when a shot rang out on tho night air. "I'm shot!" exclaimed the ranger, clasping his hand upon his heart; but the consciousness nf It sent a ferocious light into Ids eyo'i aud ho aimed at the figure Ills fir.t Impulse was to fire high, but ou second thought he lowered his rifle to the place where tho feet weio supposed to be, and fired. He missed, but uow all tho camp were aroused, nnd, seeing tho ghostly visitant, sent such n shower of leaden hail luto It that, before another minute, the mass of white was seen to waver and totter on its legs, then down It went. As It fell, the form of an Indian rvns seen to dart out from the covering aud take to his legs. "Thar's tho ghost himself; the vil lain Is making away at him boys!" shouted tho ranger starting forward. On they went, until nil of a sudden the figure disappeared, seemlnr; to en ter the grnuud. The ranger was near enough to him as lie disappeared to no tice (hit a certain pleco of sod moved. Astonishing as It may seem, he actual ly saw the Indian di-appear Into the bowels nf tho earth, aud tho sod closed together for a moment to bailie him. '-So that's his trick tho red devil! lie has an underground abode. Well we'll rout him out of that lu a jiffy," said tho judge. Suddenly, the ranger placed his feet on a certain spot, tho ground gave way, and lie was precipitated Into a pit some five feet deep-light Into the midst of five Indians. Dropping his rifle ho drew a bowle-knlte; and then com menced a tetrifio combat at uneveu odds; but he was not alone, fore nearly I a score of rifles wero pointing right I Into tho pit, ready to send death Into I their midst at a second's warning. 1 ' Ult back to the sido we are ranger," shouted the colonel, "so as wo kin , cleau out the Tarmlnts without techln' you. Tho ranger fell' back, all tho time giving thrusts himself, though wounded and hardly ablo to staud. "Flrel" commanded tho colonel. At tho word a sheet of flame burst Into the pit, lighting up tho savage faces and sending neatly every Indian to tho happy hunting ground. Thoso remaining wero clubbed with tlio hun ters' rifles. Tho ranger had killed two In hantl to-hand conflict, Ho had received r wound near the heart by a bullet be fore enteiing the pit, and was now very nearly oxhausted. A heavy guard was posted after that round tho camp, while eyes that could not bo closed In sleep watched tho stars and listened with tho keenest ntteutlon for further sounds that night. The noxt day a grave was dug for tho dead man, nnd, with poor Eliza ns tho chief mourner, the corpse was burled In tho midst of tho long grass and bright flowers of the prairie.

His cogitations musthavo been satisfactory, for ho rose by nnd by with n queer smilo overspreading his weather beaten face, and walked into tlio house, chuckling, "I'll do it ; that'll let the cat out of tho bag I" Ho found Harry Bailey, a young, lively looking fanner, iu tho kitchen with his daughter. "That young fellow is courting Jennie, sure enough I" thought tlio old gentleman, as ha discreetly passed into the sitting-room. "Well, ho is as likely to make her a good husband as any one. If sbo likes him, I shan't object." And ho fell into a fit of musing over tho memory of tho gentlo wifo who had been sleeping beneath tho flowers sinco Jennies birth. Meanwhile, In tho kitchen, Jennio was tripping about, engaged in Bomo household work, and Harry was watching her witli lovc-lit cyce, and could not make up his mind to tell her ho loved her. The Itev. Mr. Walker, of tho Orthordox Church in Helton, had prepared a discourse for his sinful congregation, on the subject of endless punishment.

Littlo Tim Dates shivered iu his shoes, nud thought of tho pio ho had taken tho night before, nnd then told his mother a lie, and debated whether ho should confess, or run tho risk of tho punishment fulminated by tho parson. Hut ho did nut settle tho matter that time; tlio minister was suddenly brought to a full etop in tho midst of his discourse, and tho congregation was electri fied by a tromcmlous crash and report in their midst, as if heaven and earth had como toj;ethor. Farmer Evans roso to his feet simultane ously with his frightened daughter and tlio rost of tho congregation, and poor littlo Tim was not euro for tho moment that his futuro hail not begun. Tho causo of the noiso was found lo bo nu explosion In tho stove, through Iho infernal agency) of gunpowder. How it catno thero was a mystery to nil ex cept Farmer Evans. Harry Bailey who mado the fires and found tlio wood for a staled sum, catno forward with a white faco and explained that tlio thing was unknown to him. Tho farmer walked homo thinking, "Bad, badl I'm very sorry bo's that sort; I never suspected him of nit others; and Jennie likes him." Tho farmer's first impulse was to nip in tho bud tho acquaintance between Jennio nnd young Bailey ; but his natural kindly feeling ultimately prevailed over his anger, and, on his uext meeting with the delin quent ho abruptly addreMsd him : "You aro courting my daughter?" Harry Bailey admitted tho fact bash fully. "And you mako the fires for the Orthodox church?" continued tho old man. Harry assented. "And you furuUhod the wood ?" "Yes," said the young man, growing red and whito by turns, "Perhaps you would now like lo havo tho mysterious explosion iu tho church last Sunday explained? I knew my wood-pile was going somewhere, and put a small charge of iiowdcr in ono of tlio sticks. I need not say that I was euprised to find you were the thief; and you dared lo come court ing my daughter I" Harry quailed before tho stern, clear glanco of tlio old man. "I know I'm loo moan to live, much lets to lovo her," ho broke out ; "I dou't oxjiect you to overlook it. I I had a hard year on tho farm; you know what losses I met I meant to pay it back again, but I don't expect you to beliovo mo. One thing I beg don't tell her anything about it; I ooOld n't bear to havo her think so badly of me." Tho old man regarded tho ashamed, re pentant faco with pity. "Look here, Harry," ho said, "I'll forgivo you, and will not mention it to a soul, if you'll look mo iu tlio face and promise sol emnly to bo strictly houest from this Lenoe fortli." Bailey caught his hand gratefully, and ho foit his reward begin as ho saw the shadow of a now hope dawniugon the troubled face. " I solemnly promise," he said, "never again to toudi a penny's worth that is not lawfully my own." "At tho end of tho year you can have Jennio if you want her, and wo'll unite the farm."

If there Is anything moio than another that builds up a newspaper nnd makes it n Hiwer in the oonimunily it Is tlio printing of gratuitous notices tlio longer the better favoring some of tho various small enterprises in tlio social, dramatic or lecture line of business.

Then after patronising tho jiajiers iu this liberal way, tlio managers of such social, dramatic lecture or other enterprise, should they staud lu need of any printing iu the way of cards, hand-bills or tasters, ought to hunt upsomebody who does job printing on a seooud-hauil sewing machine and give him the work.
