EMMA'S ELOPEMENT.
BY G. W. BTAXIOX.
"Emma, this is wrong,
give it up"
I beseech you,
" Wrong, Ada. No, it is not wrong. Sneh
worils wouml me. Can you look into my
heart can you feel the tumult there, the
hitler, hilterstruggle between love ami ilut?
Xo, it is impossible! Then, how can vou
mlvite, how ran youjiulgo oflhnt which you
never ureomedof?'
L'niina passed her liaiul wearily over her
brow, ami arising, slowly paced tho room,
tears running down her cheeks tho while,
nnd her busom throbbing convulsively.
" I did not mean Iniviin vm, ,ln, nn
vr 1 ' "6
lleaven knows nothini was further from
my intention 1" said Ada, throwing her arms
around her sister's neck, and gazing upon
her in mingled sorrow and aflectien. "I
only thought you might regret it afterwards
that it is not well to throw awny a love
tried nnd true for a love untried and un
known "
" But lifo is not mado up of one lovo 1' 're
plied Emma, passionately. "Hit were, my
father would never havo loved my sainted
mother, and you and I had never seen the
light. You know not what you talk of I
Untried and unknown! Shamo sister I
How can you speak so, when for five long
years Robert lias waited, oud hoped that
ho might find favor in my father's eyes,
loving mo all tho whileind never swerving
an instant from the constancy? If this is
not patience if this is not devotion, what is
rcw her lovely form up lo IU full
height, her face glowed with n noble enthusi
asm, her eyes sparkled with tho reflex of
tho emotion that thrilled her being, and one
unshed tear trickled down herclieck, adding
a touching pathos to her expression,
Ada gazed upon her in admiration, for an
instant forgetting her solicitude. But the
fear that that very beauty would be shadow
ed with care and grief that that very gran
deur which now rested ujion her like tho
mantel of an empress, would bo changed to
tho stoop of rcmorso by her own act, return
ed with force redoubled, and Ada plead
ugain vehemently.
" I know all this I do not breathe aug'jt
against Robert; indeed, I believe hint to be
good; but think, sister mine, this act will
change tho whole current of your life once
done, it cannot bo undone, no mutter how
much you may wish it. You at least will
lose nothing by waiting a little longer"
"'A little longer! Will tho heart that has
been hardening towards me "
" No, not towards you, only towards your
purpose "
" My purpose, then 'tis one and the same
thing. That purpose is my hope, my life,
my all I I say, will tho heart that lias been
hardening towards me for five long years,
melt now Will iy father's iron will bend
fur no reason before unknown, simply to
satisfy that vain hope of yours? You sug

you to idle fancies. I must not I cannot

and all the eloquence of"
"Our mother, Emma our dead mother?
Could not she turn you from it?"
" No," with achokiog sob, " not even her
blessed voice; for I am right." Were she
alive, sho would not oppose me as you and
father do. But it is pst words are useless
God and my heart aro with me they
alono shall counsel me 1"
" And you will leave your home, your
father, your brother, and mo leave us all,
Emma?"
" Yes."

, violently. Pausing involuntarily, she g -
upon the kueelmg form, passed herhand
51.00
hastily over licr brow, nnd sighed deeply.
Then her conflicting emotion, found vent.
" You delight to torture me -lo paint tho
future black lo conjure up dreadful pic
tures" " No, no-"
" You do, clso you would not do It. You
speak as if it wero n pleasure to me to decide
between two loves, both Inspired by nature,
and both pure in the Bight of Ood ; you act
as If I wero free from pain as If 1 wero f si
dieting nn injury upon our family out of n
desiro for revenge I"
" Oh, Emma, you wrong me you do not
understand mol"
" Understand you ! It is you who have
no idea of my feelings I It never occurred
to you to suggest a pleasant ending to a
doubtful project, to liopo that my father may
forgivo me, that Robert may bojprospcrcd,
'that I tuny bohnppy I Oh.nol thesothings
never came to your mind. Enough I I am
weary of such consideration I"
She left the room, leaving Ada to sob and
weep by herself.
The sisters wero diametrically opposite in
disposition and temriernmcnt, Ada's cau
tious mlud could never comprehend the im
pulso of Emma's soul, the anient longings
of her heart, or the delicacy nnd sensitive
ness of her nerves, and henco Ada often
wounded when she meant to comfort. But
her lovo for her sister was pure nnd strong,
her sollcitudo intense, her regrot that cir
cumstances had thus combined so keen as to
disturb her whole nature. With her head
resting upon the chair whero Emma had
sat, she wept as if her heart would breaki
her form quivering at intervals, her hands
clastx'd firmly together.
Suddenly a sharp kuock sounded upon the
door.
" It is father I Oh, what shall I do now ?"
she exclaimed, starting up in alarm. " I
must shield Emma I can't betray her, and
yet Ho knocks again ! I havo no time
for thought."
Hastily wiping"hcr eyes, sho opened the
door. The old gentleman entered, a look of
mingled wondor nnd suspicion upon his
long, s para fuee.
" You havo been crying, Ada. What
for?"
Tho maiden twirled one of her bracelets
nervously, and gazed steadily at tho floor.
" Why don't you answer me ? Have you
lost all respect for me, that you leavo me
(done in the evening, nnd then disturb me,
with high words, as I am on my way to my
chamber, to say nothing of this stubborn sii-.
enco which it pleases you to assume just
now ?"
Ada flushed red, tears sprang to her eyes
again, nnd sho tapped ono loot restlessly.
" Where's your sister ?" demanded John
.Itoyco, his vexation increasing.
" In her room."
" licr room I" repeated the old man, ele
vating his brows. " l'ray how long is it
siiicoeho had a room by herself? You lov
ed ono another well enough when you wero
children, to sharo the sanio room, and now,
when you uro women, you find ono room too
small. Ahl crying again? You've quarrel
ed with each other, have you?"
Ada nodded her head sadly.
" Shamo! shamo upon you both I Can you
learn nothing by years? If not, why do you
live? Bring Emma to mo at once 1 I'll sco
I'll seo why you light you havo always
lived happily until now I Why do you hesi
tato ?"
" I I don't know."
What nil's you, girl? What means this
trembling?"
" Nothing, papa nothing 1 I'll go at
once."
Ada hastened from tho room. In the
meantime Edwin Itoyco come in and sjwke
to his father; but tho old gentleman took no
notice of him whatever, and wondering as to
tho cause of this strang'o conduct, the young
man leaned against tho bureau, and waited
forcircumstancestodcvclopa an explanation.
Presently Ada came in, leading Emma by
the hand.
John lloyce arose, nnd noting Emma's palo
face, her downcast eyes, and her sorrowful
manner, said to himself, " Toor child I her
feelings have been deeply wounded. Ada is
very thoughtless." Then lie spoko aloud :
" My daughters, this is a new and mnrti.
fying cxrwricncc. Never beforo havo I
known of a disagreement between you nov
cr before have I heard such loud words as on
this night. Emma you shall explain it."
" We we inisuiidcrstood ono another,"
she answered faintly. It was very hard for
her in force out the false wonls. Ada hurt
my feelings, and I retaliated ; but it is pass
ed now we have havo forgiven each other;
let It go."
" Not so. I must know the. cause," said
the old man, gravely.
Ada pressed Emma's hand ; neither knew
what to eay. It was a trying moment.
John Itoyco was growing impatient, when,
by a superhuman effort, Emma forced a
smile to her features, and thiowing her arms
around her father's neck, said :
"Dear papa, do not urge us I What mat
ters it about the cause, as long as we havo
been reconciled? Surely, ou must know
that a cause for a feminine difference is a
very trifling thing. A bit of lace, the color
of a ribbon anything, in fact, is ground
enough for a disputo when one's feelings are
excited. Of courso wo are sad. Ada aud I,
and we want to talk it over before we sleep.
Kiss me good-night now, and leave us."
"Ah, you rogue I you can coax your old
fallic r into anything."
"Ob, if I only could," thought Emma,
resting .her head utun his shoulder, while
contending emotions disturbed her ruiud and
heart.
Stroking her hair fondly, he called her hi,
darling, and then klised her gently. His
kind words only increased her pain, and do
pi to her efforts, tears came to her eyes.
" What, crying again,tny dear?" ho said,
with tender solicitude.
" Only because you are so good to me
she murmured. "Now kiss tne again
there! Good-night, tiapa good-night."
He moved away; she sprang forward,
threw her arms around bis neck again, and
caressed him with all the tenderness of a
child. He held her close to him, wonder
ing as to her sgitatiou, and was about to
speak, when, by a strong exercise of her
volition, she became calm, and disarmed
bis suspicion.
Ada stood with averted head, struggling
to control the grief that welled up in her
heart, as sho thought that perhaps this part
ing was forever.
Oood-night, Ned, my brother my only
1 dear brother I" said Emma, railing b,er
qulvtring Hps to hi,.

Placing his strong arm nrnttnil her, ho
looked down Into her bltiuesull'cctinnnto
ly, anxiously.
" You havo n secret, Emma I Trust me
with it I will help you nil in my jmwer,"
ho whispered. She nerved herself to main
tain tier composure.
" Your lovo for me gives yott strange fan
cies. I am wnary lo-nlght that is till.
Good-night, Ned."
She kissed him again, and he passed from
the room with his father.
Once move alone, the girls looked at each
other in relief, and yet in sadness. Relief,
because the deception was over , sadness, be
cause it had to be undertaken at all. Tho
present was oppressive ; the future dark.
" 1 have shielded you, Emma. God knows
I hopo I havo not done wroug I" said Ada
devoutly.
"You have not, sister! Whatever is the
result, I shall never reproach you," replied
Emma, throwing her arms around Ada's
neck. " It pains me to leave you iu this
war it would pain me to wait, and wait,
until my youth had passed and my life had
becomo n sacrifice long drawn out. No, nol
Heaven knows what the consequences might
be to Robert I At all events, I should break
my womanly word. You do not blame me,
Ada, do you 1"
' No I no I" sobbed Ada. " I hope you
will bo happy. My life shall be devoted to
obtaining father's forgiveness for you."
"God bless you, sister I"
Locked in each other's arms, they ming
led their tears together, and said over and
over again tho sad and tender wonls of part
ing. At four o'clock the next morning Em
ma, closely veiled, left her home nnd walk
ed rapidly toward tho outskirts of tho vil
lage, where a carriago awaited her. As she
approached, a handsome, manly form np
peared, and came forward ilh hands ex
tended. At 7:30 a. in., John Royce, Edwin
and Ada, awaited the coming of Emma to
breakfast. It wns difficult for Ada to con
ceal her real feelings, especially when her
father wondered why Emma did not come;
but she did it, nnd answered when he ques
tioned her, that Emma did not sloop with
her last night.
" Go to her room and arouse her," said
John Royce, nt length.
Ado obeyed, and returned with a note
which sho handed to her father in silence.
He opened the missive tremulously, while
a pallor crept over his features. Ho read
one'line. His eyes dilated, he clenched his
hands; ho read the second. His face turn
ed livid, ho pulled at his collar, and then
starting back from the table, ho smote the
air with his fist, nnd cried huskily:
Left me dcserlod her homo for that
scoundrel of a Lmitriml Oh, ungrateful
girl viper that has slung my hand my
hand her father's ! And only last night
sho kissed mo so fondly, nnd lied to mo with
the same breath I Oh, inierablo creature!
and yet, blood ol my blood I But she slial
bo so no lon'ir Fnitn this hour she is a
stranger to nie tho and hers I They may
crawl over thistles to nie, but I will not aid
them; No,l will curso them curso their "
0h, father, father, forbear! Reflect
think remember my mother I" cried Ada,
throwing her arms around his neck.
Ay, nnd remember nie," said Ned ex
citedly. " When you disown Emma, you
forsake me."
" Then go I want nono of her sympath
izers in this house! John Itoyco cm live if
the whole world desert him; lie will never
bo bullied by his own children I"
"And lean live too. You ore selfish
father" '
" Don't daro to call mo father, you rebel
lions rascal I"
"Oh, God help us!" cried Ada, sinking
upon her knees between her brother nnd
her father, who menaced each other with
eye, voico aud limb.
Three years had flown.
On the porch of a little white cottage, all
embowered willi roses, sat a beautiful wo
man, with a bright prattling child in her
arms. The birds in the tree-tops sang mer
rily, the summer sunshine gilded the earth
with its brilliaticy.lheinlhUouthwind sigh
ed softly through the verdant foliage, ami
kissed lovingly the petals of tho beauteous
flowers on tho lnwn. Tho child clapped its
little hands nnd crowed with delight, as
gaudy butterflies flitted by, uud tho mother
smiled, as only mothers can, Anon, she
spoke, and the radience vanished from her
face.
" 1 am grateful, I hope, for my ieaceful
homo, for my husband and this little treas
ure, but, oh, how much happier I should be,
if father would only como to us, or let us
oome to him; I woader if ha over thinks of
mo kindly, I wonder if ho remembers when
I was a child liko my little Albra, here oh I
if ho docs, his heart must soften, I havo
realized all my unticijiutious in Robert he
is good, ho is noble, aud he loves baby and
I, better than ho lores his life."
Sho bent over and kissed tbo rosy cheek,,
and smoothed tho plump little hands.
"I don't say much to him about father,"
she continued, leusively, " for it trouble,
him as it does me, and ho is ao careful of my
comfort, that it would b wicked to com
plain. I chose between the two loves thrio
years ago; and, oh, I know Iain happier
than if I had staid at home and mourned
over my loneliness. I did right events
have proved it, I think; and I can't help
feeliug that father is very unkind and ob
durate. He would have done in his youth
as I did I know he would. But poor Ada
she has had to stand In front of the battle
all all alone ! Ned isn't at home aud oh,
dear"
" Papa tumin 1" fried tho baby, struggling
to gel down. Emma looked up, and aaw
her husband coming rapidly up the walk,
his brown curls fluttering in the wind, his
frauk, genial face aglow with health and
happiness. Reaching the lawn, he ilnng
down his hat which ho had carried In hi,
hand, kUsod hi, wifo tenderly, and catching
his heir lu h!sdrnis threw him nearly to the
top of the portico, to the alarm of the young
mother, though she had witnessed the play
a hundred times. Baby eujoyed it hugely,
and carolled and laughed, and pulled papa's
moustache, until papa thought ho was rath
er getting the wont of it, aud restored the
little rogue to Emma's arms.
" You are home early, dear," tviid Emma.
" Ym, but I'll go back if you want tne
to"
" You tell ps, Albra, that he is very
naughty I" replied the young mother, who
, made, the child the medium of her com- j
, munlosjlon nine Utnss out of ten.

Albra shook his head and laughed, but
couldn't Et his little lips in shape tg utter
the wonls. Robert chatted n few moment,
in a light merry way, and then saidi
"Now, little woman, we'll talk serious,
and alioutsomcthing very near to our hearts,
but I don't want you lo pull your faeo down.
Promise before I begin You'll try? Very
well. I see by your-face that you "know I
nm about to speak of your father our father,
for I bear no hnnl feelings toward him, al
though he never loved me very well. Now
don't look blue ; it's nothing very bad, only
this, he's on the verge of failure "
" Poor papa," said Emma, trying to keep
the leant back. "It's very hard, after all hi,
years of work I'm afraid it will kill him,
Robert"
" No,-lt won't, for I have saved him ! I
sent him ten thousand dollars this noon"
"Oh, my noble husband I' My dearest-""
nnd throwing her arms around his neck he
gazed upon him with love and veneration,
then, while an expression of astonishment
flew to her features, she added ! "But how
did you get so much money?"
" Why you saved it, I guess, at least a por
tion of it, by your prudence, andjnodesty in
dress and living. I've been prospered, you
know, and wo didn't begin witlt n brown
stone front, that', it pet. It is true, I
wanted to build a new house, but wo can
wait"
" Yes, for our house is in our hearts I 0,
Robert, I have thanked God for you every
day of my life but never so much as now.
Oh, my darling, I fear I am not worthy of
you I"
He silenced thoso pretty lips with n kiss,
nnd bade her never say that again, for had
not she helped him lo his revenge. A mo
ment later, Neil Roycocame outoTlhe house
aud grasped Robert's hand.
" It's all over I caro very littlo how much
longer I stay in this world. Ada,come hero,
look the fact in the face we nre ruined!
All these years of work nre undone to-morrow
I shall be a bankrupt! Yoii alone of
my three children have remained true to
me, and it would have been better for you,
had you turned ingrate, and left your mis
erable old father. Well well I nm old
and wcuk wliat do I want of money, love?
I have outlived my usefulness every man
is in the same condition who has grown up
sous and daughters to disobey anddefy'him !
I havo been going down hill ever since Em
ma ran nwny with that miserable devil of a
Lantrini I She is in misery, I'll wager my
last dollar well, it serves her rightl 1 could
curse "
" Topa, dear papa, nlense don't ; Emma
thought she was doing right"
"What I You defend her? One ; word
more, and you and I jiart forever I"
Ada shrank back in fear his face wa,
contorted with rage. At that moment the
bell rang, and Ada wcut to the door, glad to
get an opportunity to leave her fathetalone
n minute. Presently, she returned with a
package in her hand, which she placed up
on his knee. Very listlessly the old man
opened it, and threw up his hands with nn
exclamation of mingled wonder and joy, as
ho beheld a pilo of one thousand dollar bill,.
With trembling fingers, lie counted them,
and then, springing to his fcet,he ejaculated :
"I am saved! We aro saved! I can
weather the gale now I"
"Oh, papa, there is Providence" in this I
Who can have sent It?"
"Ay, I wonder who; were he my worst
enemy, I would grasp his hand, for my name,
my honor is still safe."
" I hold you to your word. Robcrt.Lnn
trim'is the man I" and Ned Royce looked in
at the open window.
Willi a howl of wrath the old man hurled
tho bills to tho floor and stamped on them,
while he denounced Emma and Robert in
scurrous terms. Ada regarded him with
pity and reproach. The passion passed
shame sat upon his features he sank into
a chair, and bowed his head upon his hands.
Anon, a dry sob welled up from his peturb
ed breast, and soon tears started to hi, eyes.
Arising, he walked toward the window,and
took his son's hand within his own, and
pressed it warmly ; then, in a hoarse Toice.
he bade him bring Emma back to her old
home. At eight o'clock that evening, Em
ma came into the library with her babe in
her arms, and knelt before her father. Tbo
old man shook in every limb so intense wa,
his emotion. Placing one hand upon Al
bra', head and the other upon his daughter's
golden hair, ho begged her forgiveness, ac
knowledged his wrong, and prayed Heaven
that he might live long enough to right it.
Then moving forward lo Robert, he grasped
his hand, and said huskily t
" My son, you have heaped coal, of fire on
my head."
Happiness lived again In the old borne,
and it was not long before John Royce wit
nessed Ada's marriage to one she bad loved
in eecrect for more than a year.
