Wo wcro nlono in tho houso JInudo
Clinptuiu and I aud did not altogether like
tho position.
Whilo tho daylight lasted: and thcro
seemed so much lifo about tlio farm, it
seemed Very plcasnut to havo tlio houso to
ourselves, to bo nblo to wander through tho
quaint old rooms and to talk on tho subjects
very uear to both of us, without tho dread
of being overshadowed by tho Loudon fc-
malo cousins and tho roysteriug youths
who had como to epend n month of tho
shooting season beneath our roof.
For a timo wo rovclcd in ourcomparativo
solitude, anil pitied tho fctnalo cousins, tho
eager sportsmen, poor papa, nnd tbo rest of
tho household, who had been beguiled into
accepting nn ilivilalion to Mid. Itatllotrap's
pic-nioat tho Scrubs, a picco of moorland
somo eight miles distant from our house.
o were all expected, but mv old school.fcl-
low, Maud, pleaded hcadacho, nnd I was
not sorry to havo an excuso to stay at homo
with my guest.
Wo had met but seldom sinco wo had left
tho primary school at Taunton; and al
though Maud had already been with us a
week, what with tho noisy clatter of our
friends, tho croquet tourneys, tho lawn
dances, nnd tho other pleasant ways in
which our oycnlngs wcro spent, wo had,
hitherto, had no opportunity of joining in
thoso mutual confidences so dear to women
who nro ill tlio blissful stato known as "en
gaged." Tliero was a particularly tender
bond of sympathy bctwoon us, inasmuch ns
I was in a bi-wceklv correspondenco with
her brother John, to whonrl signed mysolf
"yours nllectionately," while her betrothed
was Harry Somers, who had been a visitor
to our honso from Ids childhood. Ero thoy
drovonway that afternoon tho other girls
had twitted us rather wycrely for not join
ing them, nnd it eeeincJ a general opinion
that Maud's headache was nothing more
than a sham. But the gentlemen said but
littlo; in my opinion their hearts would
havo boon glndcncd had all tlio parly ab
stained from attending picnic, their inclina
tions tending toward tlio wheat slubblo In
"Fivc-acio field" and tho adjacent turnip
patch, whcro a fino covey had sought shel
ter tho night before. But as tho girls wcro
resolved to go) tho males of courso woro
obliged to act as escorts. By-and-by papa
was induced to join them, nnd thus it was
that Maud ond I wero left alono.
So engrossing was tho subject of our con
versation that wo wcro surprised when tlio
housemaid brought ill tho tea nnd,dropping
a courtscy, asked if Sar.ili, tho cook, might
go down witli her to the village, until ten
o'clock to join tho festivities with which
Farmer Ashcombo was colebrating his har
vest home. It then occurred to my memory
that tho servants had asked mo for this holi
day a fortnight previously, and that I had
given a halt acquiescent response. In tlio
hurry of my domestic duties, ond tho ex
citement occasioned by a houso full of com
pany I had, however, forgot tho circum
stancouulil now.
"flhcro is Ben ?" I inquired, referring to
ono of tho carters who inhabited a snug lit
tlo cottago on tlio farm,md was consequent
ly required to placo himself at our scrvico
when required.
Tbo domestic dropped another' courtesy,
nnd announced that that individual had
gono to Well Willi a load of barley, and
would not bo homo until lato.
"And tho boy Bmilli?"
"I'leasc, m, master told him ho might go
whou ho 'ad led tho )oultry and fastened
them up for tho night, and ho lias been
gono this quarter of an hour."
"I hopo ho mado suro tho turkoys and
gooso wero all right, for papa saw a fox cross
tho moodow this morning.
"Oh, ye, 'in, ho is a careful lad is Smith,
and bo's got '0111 all right 'enow, I'll bo
bound," rwponded tho maid.
I hesitated a moment as to whether is was
altogether sofa to be thus left alono ; but as
I had given a half promiso to tlio girls, and
I knew it would bo a 6ad disappointment to
them not to go, I dismissed my apprehen
sions, and told them they might leavo tho
tea things and be olf.
Noticing that after a whilarMaud became
lees conversational, I inquired tho reason 1
but receiving nought but evasivo answers, I
questioned moro closely.
"You aro not afraid, aro you, dear 7''
"I Bhall only be confessing tho truth when
I tell you that I was very sorry to hear you
give your consent to tlio servanU leaving
Suppose nny person lias been watching
tho house, and was to seiso tho opportunity
of committing a robbery?"
"My dear Maud," 1 responded, "nothing
of the sort over happens in thaw, rU. Liv
ing as we do, some distance from any town,
we know all the parsons resident within a
radius of, say, four in lies."
"But how about tramps T Aro they not

"Perhaps, Miuid, oven thoy are moro sin.
not agalut than finning. At all ovwts
tramps seldom, if ovw, come near us. You
se w ir off the mai rami. The Uue
leads to the farm, and nowhere clsti."
"But,'' pun-ued Maud, "that fact would

"Ilcally," I replied, "I shall bo quito an
gry with you If you pursuo Uio subject fur
ther. To put an end, however, to all your
fears you shall como with mo, and wo will
bolt tho outer door."
Tho alacrity with which Maud roso from
her chair was a good proof that tho proposed
measure was of a wolcomo nature, so, pro
ceeding from tho drawing room, wo walked
to tho lawn, and, fastening tho gato which
opened on lliolano,woro-cntcrcdtho houso.
Wo then locked, bolted and barred tho back
premises, saw that all tho windows woro
fastened, and then eamo back to tho draw
ing room.
I must confess that when wo had secured
all tho approaches to our citadel, I was my
self a good deal moroatcasa than I had
been previously.
Slowly tho autumn sun sank beneath tho
range of hills fronting our dwelling, ting
ing tlio Eky with radiant hues that varied
momentarily.
I could havo sat for hours watching tho
numerous hues that swept across tho heav
ens, bnt wtth tho uprising moon and gath
ering twilight I clearly saw that Maudo was
onco moro becoming nervous.
Won't you close tho shuttor?" inquired
Maudo.
"Not unless you particularly wish it dear,"
I replied.
"But I do," Bho answered.
I was about to shut out tho moonlight
view, and mado a desperate effort to chnngo
tho conversation, when Maudo, who had
her eyes fixed on tho lawn, suddenly clutch
ed my arm, and involuntarily retreated a
step. "Sis," sho cried, "what is that mov
ing in Jho laurels?"
I looked ,nd in a moment observed emerg
ing from tho shelter of tho laurals, but still
remaining bencatli tbo dense shadow of tho
overhanging tree, what seemed to bo tbo fig
ure of a man. Ho looked, in height very
short, almost dwarf-like, but was stout of
frame, and appeared dressed in whilo, or
without a coat j and seemed to bo in his
shirtsleeves; his arms being alono scon as
ho raised them in freeing himself from tho
bushes.
"Oh, Sis," exclaimed Maude, "it is n man
Let U3 givo him nil our jowelry, or mayhap
wo may bo murdered era any of our people
may como hack."
"Maude," I cried, "for heaven's sake en
deavor to retain your senses. You yester
day remarked that tho double-barreled gun
hangs over tho mantlcpicco in tlio kitchen,
and asked mo if it wcro loaded 1 Do you
think that you could fetch it to mo while I
keep watch hero?"
I know her fright prevented herspcaking.
Clasping her hand tightly within my own,
and then releasing it, I said :
Bring It to mo then ; tho gun is perfect
ly safe so long as you do not touch tho trig
ger."
Whilo Maudo was gono. it seemed to mo
as though tho figuro drew closer; it was
careful to remain within tho shadow of tho
tree, but it struck mo. is exceedingly straugo,
that, although tho white sleeved arms
seemed continually raised, ns though their
owner had just aroused from a sound sleep,
I could not sco tho creatures head.
In a ycry short timo I heard Maude's ap
proaching footsteps. As sho placed tho gun
into my hand I felt that bo: fingers wero
cold and trembling.
At that moment tho mysterious boing
eamo a few paces nearer, and seemed to havo
a limping gait,whcthcr from natural infirm
ity or drunkenness I could not tell.
Throwing open tlio window, and raising
tho gun, I cried at tho top of my voice,
"Who's thcro ? Answer or I'll fire."
few seconds elapsed but no response
eamo to my inquiry.
"Who aro you?" I again shouted.
My linger closed ujioii tho trigger, tlion
eamo a Hash and a loud report tho intrud
er upon tho lawn staggered and fell.
Simultaneously poor Maudo sank fainting
on tho floor.
Not daring to movo from tho room, I rest
ed tbo guu ugainst tho table, and raising
Maude's head in my hands endeavored to
restore her to consciousness. What Bcemsd
to mo hours, but it could not havo been moro
than twenty minutes, passed and then eamo
tho sotind of vehicles driven rapidly up tho
lane. I heard my father clamoring for ad
mittance, and hurrying to tho door, fell al
most swooning into his arms.
As coherently as I could I told him of our
adventure, and that tlio body of a man lay
beneath tlio laurel bushes, so resigning mo
to tlio caro of ono of tho gentlemen, ho hurried

his cheery voico sounded through tho still

And so it was. That boy Smith, who it as
so much to bo depended on, had for onco
proved himself unworthy of his trust, 'and
tills poor bird, In its fulllo endeavors to seek

become magnified to tho proportions of a

A fow days ago n citizen who docs busi
ncss on Congress etrcot was drawn to his of-
fico door by a windy Way of words between
two mon. Both seemed ready to fight if
they had backings, and tho citizen was look
ing as if ready to back tho smallor one,
when a mnn with a stiff neck and painful
gait eamo along, took in tho situation fit
glanco and said to tlio citizen:
"Keep still don't say a word don't pal-
liato n conflict."
Tho conflict was declared "off," and tho
men wont their ways, and tho citizen re
turned to his desk.
In tho courso of tbo afternoon, tho man
with tho stiff neck entered tho office, passed
tho timo of day, and said !
"Out hero this morning I mado usoofa
word which I want to correct. I nskod you
not to 'paliato a conflict. I meant 'partici
pate,' not paliato. Good day, sir."
Next morning at eight o'clock, when the
citizen got off tho car, tho old chap was
waiting for him on tho corner, nnd halting
him against a stono wall said :
"I called upon you yesterday to explain
that I meant 'parllcipalo' instead ofpalli
ato."
"Yes, you did "
"I now desiro to inform you that I didn't
mean cither ono. I mean 'prcticipato,

don't sco how I misspoko myself ns I did."
'Oh, that's nil rights no harm done,'
laughed tho citizon.
No ; no particular harm, but I wan't
things right if thoy can bo mado so."
They separated. Near tho closo of tho
second day thereafter tho old mnn entered
tho ofiico again, placed his hat on tho floor,
wiped off his chin, nnd said : "I now desire
to inform you that I didn't mean 'prctici
pato,' after all. It was probably tho excito-
mentoftho moment which made mo uso

others. What I meant to eay was 'prccipi

Somo two or thrco days after that tho
citizen was over on tho market. Ho saw
tho old man thcro, and ho looked ns if he
wanted to say something. Tho citizen there

complement of passengers. As they walked
about listlessly, nnd apparently annoyed,
they listened willingly to a suggestion from
an individual who owned a monto bank,
that just to pass away tho timo they should
buck at mouto. Tho dealer foundj a tablo
handy and opened tho bank. In a short
timo tho most of the company wcro engaged

"But I say you must not hapwn to?
