So tho girl thought as sho stooped down beuide u spring at the foot of u Cot tonwood tree ntid luz'tly dropped her pail into tho water. 'It ought to have been given to n boy. if it was n lit name to be given to any body," she laid, qnite aloud. "Butl'm more boy thau girl anyway." This Ust WR3 added vtry bitterly, as sho looked at her brown, rough hands and her bare ankle.--, uud thought of tLo "boys woik she had lo do. i And it was hard to believe that this was the best kind of a lil'o for a .young girl like Sacramento. ' Her shoj'lived alone, for her father "was dowu-tit the canon all day The garden work she bad to do, aud the c.tre of tho cuttlu fill upon her. It was not.olteu that bbbsaw any peron but bir father, nlthuugh now aud then, in spite of herself, she came iu contact with the rude men of the niiuiug camp up ubovc. Yot Sacramento had ber dream, one that bho "scarcely durtd to own," hut it came to her oltcu us tho ueut about her work. Sho know that down nt Santa Darbarn nnd in the towns along the coa&t,' and far, far away across wide btretches of the continent to tho great East, tutro were girls who lived lives very different fioin ber life; and bho dreamed of such a life for herself. Oh, if I could only go away from here!" she cried out, almost a& one cries lor help. "If I could only go down to San Francisco aud go to school thoio for n bingle year! Ah, if I only bad five hun dred dolUtb!" Suddenly there was a step not of n nun but of a horso on the bank behind her, nnd then some one spoke. She knew the voice without looking up. It wai Pete Larabee, u follow who lived dowu ou Hahnemann's plantation, two miles along tho trail! He sometimes rode by. Ho hud not heard her htbt words 'at all; yet, strangely enough, his own were a repetition of them. Tive huudred dollars. Sac," said he. "Five hundred dollars in goldl D'y w.int to earn it! Thcr's yer chance," and ho threw down to her a bit of paper crumpled luto s ball. Sho picked it up and, slowly nnfold ing it, ran her eyes over its contents. '$000 Reward. " "Tho above amount will be paid for in formation leading to the nrrtbt, dead or alive, of W'.iltcrSouiers, who has worked for soma tiuio past ou Maxwell's rancho. Said Somers id about eighteen years old and five aud a ball' feet high, rather good looking, with light, curly hair, blue eyes and a light moustache. When lust been bo bad ou a black slouch hat, gray busi ness suit with U i lliunil shirt. iu.d boots with red loja marked with the maker's name. Tho umueof the crunty sheriff was signed at tho bottom of the bill. Sacra mento, having i,U.itcd it tluougb, looked up. "He's been stealiu' horses," exclaimed Pete. "Got off last night with (our of Mdx'ir bent boiueubtres. That toward won't do much good though. Ihe Itrgu la orx'11 lasso him un' striug him up long 'icr the law'll git started. They're hevin' a meetiuguov up ut the gulch. I tell ye, they nro mad. They'll make quick work ef thoy ketch Lim. Yer father's there. Ye needn't look fur him home afore night mcch." Then, after a wntd or two mare, the man rode on; and presently Sacramento took up her pall and, with the bheriffs bill in her hand, went blowly up the bunk and ncrosa the trail toward tho house, thinking very seriourly about the five huudred dollars all tho while. It was so-ue hours after this, and the afternoon sua was going dowu behind the tops of the mountains, that Sacra mento, having finished her housework. was preparing to sit down ou the porch , t do her bewlng, wbu she was wet i Live ana Let Live." PA., SATURDAY, DEHEMBER 9, 1882. tho doorway by a young man she niver seen before. had And yet ho was no stranger. The girl knew him instantly, although the slouch hat was pulled dowu over the flaxen hair and blue eyes, and the urny pants, torn and muddy, had been drawn out of the boot-legs so as to no longer allow the red tops of the boots with the maker's name to be seen, It wns.tbo horse-thief, She did not, however, express any sur prise as sue saw nim. boo was accus tomed to the sight of rough, evil men; and nt the firxt glance she bad felt that this one could not be eithor very wicked or voy dangerous. Ho wos not much more than a lad, nnd had an nir of gen tleness and good breeding about him that six mouths of Wesleru life and tho mis erabla plight ho was in at the moment bad by no means dtstroyed. Ho seemed to be bbort of breath, too, and was trem bling as if he had becu running. Instinctively he raised his hand toward his hat, and then bethinking himself, dropped it again. "Could you give me something to cat and drink?" he asked, in a hesitating voico. "Anything will do. I am very hungry. I I have hud' nothing to eat since last night." Come Iu," said Sacramento, gravely. In her voico was neither kindness nor nukindness. She wos trying to realize the situation fho was in. "Como in and sit down." Then she went into the closet nenr by and began taking down from the shelves milk and bread and meat, ns she slowly did so, turning the matter over in her mind. Hero was this man who had been stealing borscB, and for whose capturo five hundred dollars were offered, in her kitchen. Five hundred dollars! Exactly the sum sho had been wishing for the sum that would take her to S.n Francis co to school Hud help her nuke a lady of herself. And this sum might bo hers if sho could iu some way secure this strang er or somehow keep him iu tbo house until help arrived. Help! Why, she hardly needed blip. Ho was woak and exhausted, ami in the drawer of the kitch en table there was uloadel revolver which she know well how to use. Sho camo out presently and set the things beforo him, bringing also a teapot from the stove nnd pouring for him n onp of tea. Then sho went and sat down by the window and watcLcd him furtively as ho ate. In spite of bis caution he'bad taken off bis hat while ho was eating. She could better seo what he was like. It was an almost boyish face, worn, but not wicked, with curling hair lying iu deep clusters upon his pale brow. In tho hands.bmall nnd will sbapiri, and iu nil his motions nnd manner, blie lolt that she conld read something of his story. She hnd heard before this that young lads in tho East, filled with romiutis notions about West ern life nnd adventure, sometimes left their luxuriant homes aud fonud their way to the ranches of tho Pucilio slope. Perhaps ho was one of these. As she looked nt him, fancying all this, and realizing the terrible strait he was iu, and tho probable dark fate that was beforo bim, her heart ytarned with true womanly sympathy, and her feelings found expression before she was able to restrain herself. "Oh, how could yon do it? How cuuld yoa do it?" she suddenly exclaimed, her voice quite full of what she felt. He looked up to her in wonder; bnt as his eyes met hers be understood her. "I did not do it. Upon my honor, I did not!" he said. "It was that man Deunis." Sacramento breathed a sigh of relief. Horse-stealing was held in that section to be a crime worso thau murder; and she was by no means free from the poj ular estimate of its grave nature. "Ob, I am glad of that!" said sbo. "Rut" She hesitated, nnd then went ou doubtfully. "But then how was it? Why did they soy It was you? And why did you run away?" "It was Dennis' doings; their laying it to me. He did that to clear himself And after that, you know as well as I do' .there wonld have beeu no use iu trying to prove my innocence. They always hang a horse-thief first and then conkider his guilt afterward. I bad to run to save my life." "Do you know that there is a reward offered for your capture?" "I know the Regulators are after me," answered (he young follow, mllenly, "They came pretty nearcatchiugme.too, this noon. I just escaped them and came down the canon by tho mountain trail. I have had n hard run for it, aud what with no sleep or food for twenty four hours I am about u.ed up. I felt us though I could not go another step wheu I saw yourhoue. You yon have beeu ery good to uo. I shall never for get" "But what are you going tn do now? interrupted Sacramento. "You are not safe here." 'I know it. But X threw them off the track at noon, aud I do not think they are within five miles of me. Xow I have had something to eat I will taka to tho woods again. I hope I may get awny. If I don't" -his voice trembled and tears camo into bis yis. "If I don't I sbull get a hanging, I Mippose. "Ob, what a fool I was not to pr lt r homo to this sort of thing. And yet 1 wouldu't care much either." Aud there the poor fellow fairly broke down. "IlatVl" Sacramento exclaimed. She had beeu crying too; she could not help it. They both listened. Iuu moment they heard plainly tho sound of horses com iug down the trail. The girl turned with instant self possession. "Go in there I Quick 1 Quick ! Tbero is not a mcmeut to lose ! Here, take your hat!" And, basding his hat to him, she half pushed him across the room and into her own little room that led off from it. Thenionooyou get him In it. It will bring In.', she hurriedly cleared tho Ull juin, $1.00 If barely finishing the task as the horsemen halted nt tho door. There werejjhree of them. One was her father. Sacramento know the other two men by sight. They were rough, but of tho better sott of tboso who mndo up (ho dwellers in Kelly Unlch. The faces of all (brce were stern nnd forbid ding, and they evidently hnd been riding hard. They dismounted together. "Sac," began her father as lio entered the door, "bev ye seen nnj thing of ft young chap, afoot or a-horsc back, coming this, way?" Sacramento had expected the question and was ready for It; und sbo meant, i! itwtre postiblo, to answer it wilhout a He. "A young chnp. about eighteen yoirs nf ago nnd fie feet nnd n half high, rather good-looking, and with red-top boots on?" replied Bho. "Yes! yei.1 That's lilm," cried one of the other men, eagtrly. "Havo you seen him? Has ho becu hert?" "I was only quoting from this band- bill," said Sacramento, taking tho paper Ironi tho shelf where she bad laid it. Then you halu't seen him at all?" abked her father. "I lavo been right bore all day, and nobody has gone by, except Peto Larra bee. It was ho who gave mo tbo bill. Aro you sure he cunie this way, tho tho horse-thief?" "No; but we don't know buthe might- er. 'Ihe chances is that be sloped off to tho mountains nieanin' ter co throuch Stovepipe Pass. They'll git htm, though, afore bundown." "It's sundown now," observed Sacri- menfb," "Then they've got him now," was tho sententious response. "And wo bhould be too late for the kauglu' ef we sh'd go back. Leastways" this was added to his companions "you'd better como in nnd have a bito oforo ye go." So presently the three men sat down to the supper that the young girl quickly prepared for them. And while they were eating sho herself, at her father's bidding, went out to take the saddle, off Bneno, his horso,, und givo him his foed. As she approached tho door once more a few minutes later, she heard words which caused her to.stop'and listen. "I don't like ter soy anything against thet kid o'youru, neighbor," oue of tho ruen was Baying, "but it hes kinder scem- ed.tcr mo all ther while's though she sort er bed soin'at on her mind liko. Ye don't 'spose she knows nnything 'bout thet young feller arter nil?" Sacramonto's father lnnghed at this ns Uioughit was too absurd to bo considered.,! The other, however, was not to bs iaughed out ol his suspicions. "Fur all we know," persisted be, "sho may hev him hid hero somwhere on the prem'ntysis," "It's easy enough to see," returned .the proprietor of tho said 'preramysia.' testi ly. "Where d'ye thiuk sho's hid him? Iu her bed room?" As ho said this Sacramento, who was now near enough to seo into the kitchen, saw ber father deo from bis chair and ntep lo the door of tho room where she had concealed tho fugitive. Her heart almost stopped beating as sho saw him push open the door and outor tho room, followed by his companions. "We'll make a clus search of it while wo're about it," she heard him bay within And then she stood thero iu terrible suspense upon tho porch.expeotlug every instant to hear the shout that would fol low tho discovery of tho fugitive. But no such shout was heard; nnd in stead of it, a moment after, the two men camo out again, her fathtr still laughing at his friend. wual could It meanf Had the young man been able ,o conceal himself in the room and so evade their search? That was not possible. Thou sho thought of the window. Could he have escaped from the room by that? The window was so small sho could scarcely believe that he could hnve crept through it. And yit ho niubt have done so. She went hurriedly to the back of tho bouse and then down beyond tho horse. sheds. No one could be seeu. She halt-1 ed a moment under a live-oak tree just at tho edge of the garden. The evening was very calm aud still, and the twilight shadows were deepening fast. Was it the rusllinc of the wind iu the boughs over head that caught her tin? Sho listened. "Hist, I am hero iu the tree." The words came iu a distinct whisper from dirtctly above her. She stood aud thought a blnglo mo ment before replying. Then bho said, "You must get auay (rem hero at once," Iu un eager whisper. ' One of the men suspects something, and they may at Any moment make a search of tho place. I am going into the house in a minute Get dowu at onca aud go through tho garden nnd across the trail to a spring (but you will find there. It's at the foot of a big Cottonwood Ine. Stay right there unlil I come. Then she weut back hurriedly to the house. The threo men wero still sitting at the table, and Sacramento felt rather thau saw that oue of thtra still regarded her sospcioUbly as sho came in. Sho did not speak to them at all, but went directly through the kitchen to her owu room, and in n moment came out, weut about her work lu the kitchen, nnd tnek up a pail apparently to go lo tho spring for waUr. Ten minutes latcr.standiog in the shad - ow of the cottonwood, young Somers heard a step, and then S icmmento, lead - ing Bneun, all saddled and bridled, nj peared. He slatted forward, "Hush!" she said; "they may coiub out at any mrment, Listen to what I I say. Your life depends upon it. You must ride straight down the trail for a quarter of n mile. Then, close by o big cottonwood, just like this, you will strike A path to tho left.

After that God help you to got safe away!" Kacnimento paused and put out her hand. "Cau you remember?" she do ninnded, "I can, but I can never forgot" "Never mind thut. Here, take this.

One of the luushest old adversaries nf human comfort, uml most diflicult to ex teiiniuHli, is rheumatism. Many middlo- oged peoplo suffer tuituiu from it, and the old folks who huvc it dud it thepettnf their lives. The case of a venerable lady of Lewistown, Mass., is uf great interest lo the victims of this tough old enemy, Mrs. Swett sjys: "I have been using Pkriiy Dav is's Iain JULi.Ktt or about eight years. As soon as I apply Paix Kn.i.Kit I have al most immediate rcliet from pain." HE KNOCKED OFF FOUR. In riding over to Lost Mountain from Marietta, I came Across a young man who wus digging post-holes for n bathed wire fence, und when I told him what I wanted, he replied: I'll go with you. I was in that font myself, aud I kin point out ovcry posi tion." When we reached tho ground, ho began tellingtwhere this and that regiment was stationed, and finally he halted besido a huge' boulder and said: Right here, stranger, was whero I squatted for four long hours.

When we wero going home, and niter a longfporiod of tilcnce, be suddeuly remarked: "Stranger, don't you believe I was thar?" "Perhaps yon were, but you see you were not quito 7 years old ou the day of that fight." "That's what I've been figuring on," ho continued iu a very serious voice, "and I'll tell you what I'm willing to do." "Well!" "Ill call it twenly-fonr instead o tweuty-eigbt dead Yanks ia front of mj f position! That's fair, isn't it?" I told bim that nothing oould be more liberal, and cordial relations were at once reestablished. M. Quod. "BUCHUFAISA." Quick, complete cure, all annoying Kid uey, Bladder und lirulnary Diseases. $1.

Tin solidification is effected by mixing petro leum nlttr its firbt distillation with tweu-ty-llye per ceut. of tho purified juice of plants bclongiug to the family of Eu pborbiacea, the mixtnro being subse quently distilled again and refined in tho ordinary mauner. The solidified petrole um bums like tallow, and may be nsid for lighting or as a lubricant. A novel and and remarkable thermo chemical battery has been produced by Mons.

ArcLteologists know that ropes date from very remote period, and had reach. ed a state of considerable perfection at tho dawn of tho bistorioal era. Tuo firbt ropes were probably u.ade from tLo fibres of the inner bark of trees, from grasaen, or from tbo hides of animals. Atnot0' tbo relics of tho ancient Egyptians huyo been found sculptures showing the pro oess of rope manufacture practiced mora than -1,00'J years ago, wbilo the oldest records of that people represent well miulo ropes o.tpable of sustaining ouorm ous burdens. It appears that flax aud the fibres of tho dulo-tree were employed fur those ropes, During the French invasion of Mex ico a plant was diso-ivertd which was fouud to ios.(cfs tho property wlou chewed or crushed of stopping hemoi rhnges. To the nutivd Mexicans tLis pl.iut was known by a namo which may borenderodas "Fowlwort." Thedlseov erer carried ni-peciuicu to Versailles and planted it in 1SC7, and it has since flour ished, floweroj und fruited without ap parent chaugo iu its peculiar qualltlis.

Mallet has colleuled tbe records of 0,63J earthquakes which took plaoe over a per iod ot 3,-158 years previous to 1850, but 1, 210 of them occurred during the last filty years. It seems, therefore, that our earth is almost constantly shaking at soina point, aud uo part of the world Is entire, ly free from tremors of some degree.
