A EISINQ TIDE' The West wind clears the morning, The ecu shines silver-grov; Tho night was long, hut fresh nnd strong But awakes tho breezy day; Like sinoko that Dies across tho lift, Tho clouds aro faint and thin; Ami near aud far, along tho bar, Tho lido comes creeping in. Tho dreams of midnight showed mo A lifo of loneliness, A slony shore, that knew no mors The bright wnve's soft caress; The morning broke, tho vision's fled With down new hopes begin; Tho light is sweet, and at my feet The tide conies rolling in. Oyer tho bare, black boulders The ocean sweeps and swells; Oh, waters wide, yo como to hido Dull stones and empty shells; I hear the Hoods lift up their voico With loud triumphant din; Sud dreams depart rest doubting heart, The tide conies foaming in I The Doctor's Story. Late ono afternoon. !n tho antnmn of 1815, on returning to my office after vis iting some patients, I fouhd this cote lying on my table: Dit. James: Will you do mo tho favor to coll nt my office this evening belore retiring? I have something of importance to communicate. Yours truly, J. L. Gaiihehon, II. D. Abont 7 o'clock I finished my business for the evening and knocked ut tbo doc tor's door. A voice bid mo enter. I opened the door. Tho shutters were closed, nnd theie was n lamp burning on the table. Tho doctor wns standing near the door, with his bands placed behind him. I went in. As I wus turning nronnd to close the door I received a heavy blow from behind, which stunned mo; thongh I seem to have a faint recollection of tho doctor's "turning tho key in tho door, una then binding me. Bo that as it may,1 however, I know when I recovered I wns bound hand and foot, and so tightly that I could not slir. while I was securely cacged by a large bauqkerchief being stuffed in my month and then firmly lied behind my neck. "You have nothing to fpar.Dr Jamc," snid tho doctor, who had taken a sent n -ar the table, while he bad placed me on a chair near tho door; ! meditnted no harm to yon. 1 am sorry I was com pelled to hurt you, but I- had nootber method of accotubliitbiDKmy object.-1 have a confession to make toJuigbt. The confession must not be told 'till I am dead. After the confession I intend to baug myself. The door will be broke in in the morning, nnd yon will be re leased. This will explain n conduct toward you this evening. "l'on have known me, I believe, for about three years. You have heard me spoken of as a strange man; yon think I am a atrange man. When you have beard my story you will know what mnde me so. "Jly father's' money placod tno in 11 respeotnble position ns a doctor in ono of onr large Southern cities. Iu a short time I had gained quite an extensive practice. With one of the families that I came in contact with dwelt n yonug woman named Laura Moye r. She was employed as a governess, bnt her beauty aud other attractive qualities won for her a placo in the hearts of those with whom she resided, and she was treated more as a daughter than a governess of their children. "Though my social position placed me far above hers, still love made us equal, and finally I proposed to her and was accepted. 'Mr family were greatly against this alliance. Prom the moment of our mar riago my father disowned me. "My pracllco was good and we suc ceeded in keeping up an appearance of wealth. Jly wife's beauty and attrac tions drew many of the elite of the city to our bouse. 'One of tho many visitors was a young man named Larue. lie bad nil the qualities that charm tbo female sex yonng, handsome, witty, with a dash of mystery about him, and a thorough man of tbe world, "I don't think I am naturally jealous, but 1 saw so many things between Larne and my wife that would have aroused tbe suspicions of tbe most confiding bus band living. "To gefmy wife from the influence of Larue I relinquished tbe extensive prac tice I bad gained by sKill and industry, and carao here to Philadelphia. "Wo bad been living here perhaps three months. I had put forth my great est energies, and succeeded very well iu getting patients, My wife seemed to turn to her allegiance to me, and I thought I bad a full store of happiness before me, wben one day, on returning to my home, I surprised my wife again iu tbe arms of Lame. "I was overwhelmed with passion. I sic -fffti INDEPENDENT-" LEHIGHTON, CA11BON COUNTY, threatened to l;tll bim on tbe spot If ho didn't leave my bonso. lie bad the ad vantage by bis impertnrbablo coolness and bo nnswered mj threats witb insol enco. IIo left tho bouse, promising to call again when ho telt pleased to do so "I suspected tho lovers would bavo n. stolen interview that evening, as they knew I would be absent. But I bad do termlued to slay at homo unknown to them and watch. "My suspicions were correct. I beard Larue come In. Tbuv went into tho parlor. Silently I crept into an adjoin ing room, nnd through the key-bole watched thorn, t beard nil that was said and done. They were planning an elopement. "My wife proposed bavins ri little snpper, nnd I knew tbey would use wine. I procured a bottle nnd drngged it, then placed it 111 a conspicuous po sition. Tho bottle of wino was use J, nnd the lovers were soon, witb their arms entwined, locked in tbe embrace of sleep. "Tbe rest wan soon done. My first Bt?p was to bind their nrms securely, then, with a rope, I strangled them as tbey sat locked in each other s nrms. "I partly understood the art of em balming, It was my only chance to es cape detection. I put my skill to work, and before morning I bad tho bodies embalmed nnd bid. ''The next day I informed the neigh bors that my wife had fled, and I expect ed she had eloped with Larue. I was believed. My character placed mo above suspicion." Hero tbo doctor censed speaking, nnd, taking n pen and paper, wrote for a con siderable time, He then scaled tbo pa per, nnd lnyiug it on tho table, said: That paper fiuishes tho story, togeth er with instructions I wish obeyed. I seo you position is painful, but there can be no help till morning." He then bade mo good-by, telling me X should never seu bim ngaiu alive. I managed to get on tbe floor, and lay there till morning. I don't know how many hours I remained awuke snlfering with my cramped position, but nt last sleep came to mo, and I slspt till I was awakened by tho noise of brenking in tbe door. The note the doctor had left told ns tho bodies wero couco..led in a chimney that wus walled up, aud that bis body would bo found in tbe garret. We found tho bodies where tho doctor bad indicat ed, aud ho was found banging iu tbe giriot. His wishes were complied with to tho letter- his parents coming on and taking charge of Ihe bodies. "Ill THE DEVIL'S NAME." Early iu tho morning of n severe win ter Jay the concierge of 11 very high nnd narrow dwelling in tbe ncighborhobd of St Madeleine's, Paris, was disturbed by the sudden violent ringing of the d6or bell. Monsieur Jean Joyeuse made nn obeis- ance as he saw before him a gentleman ot fine presence, who was the possessor of a head of remarkably black hair. "Thero is n room to be let here?" nsked tbe stranger. Monsieur Jovcuso assented with an other bow. The stranger wished to see the npartment, Jean remarked most politely that be had three rooms to let ono m tho first story another in Ihe second, nnd fl.ill another higher up in tho mausard. "Then lead me to tho mansard room." Monsieur Jean stuttered forth that the atlio was not titled for such n geutle mau. The stronger made an impatient ges ture, nnd said shortly: "Prepare tbe room, nnd in tbo course of the forenoon I will move in," With these words he drew forth his purse nnd gave n napoleon ns earnest money. Jean then saw bim enter nn equipage near tho church nnd rattle nway. Monsieur and Mddamo Joyeuse bad ample leisure in tbe succeeding hours, which they devotod to tbe cleaning of tbe garret room. This was hardly ac complished ns tbe mysterious stranger drove up, accompanied by a strvant. Tho latter carried n gloomy looking black casket, resembling a child's ccfliu iu size and shape. Tho stranger said, abruptly: "Mousieur Jenu.you aro to admit only one gentleman to see me." "Very well, sir; but how am I to know him?" "By tbe countcrsicu: 'In tho devil's name?' " Tbe worthy conjugal pair bad hardly recovered from their fright wben tbe bell jingled again, nnd a Becond strangeV ap peared, n mt,n of most lowering aspect, with dark glances aud still darker busby eyebrows. "Did a gentleman move in hero to day?" "Yes; but be receives no one." "IIo will receive me, Let me In, I come in tbe devil's name!" Thereupon tbo di6mal guest vanished likswise. From now on these two tbe lodger who did not make this bis sleep ing and tbe devil's ambassador met each morning at a certain hour in Mad ame Jean's house, shut tbe door of the mansard room behind them, and at 6 o' clock in th9 afternoon departed, to meet again in the morning, Monsieur and Madame Joyeuse did their best to dis cover tbe clandestine practices of these dangerous mon, They listened by torus at the door, but could bear nothing buV godless songs, which re-echoed from tbe mansard walls. Tbey endured this for six weeks. One day, when there was a pause in the singing, tbe porter caught np a few crumbs of tbe conversation, "Courage! Courage!" Jean beard one say. He recognized bis lodger's voice, "But It is so hard to play tbe devil!" said the other. "But only consider bow effective it Is, Live and Let Live." PA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1884. especially where you call tho dead from thoir graves nnd then tbe summons tn Satan nnd bis host, and tho answer from the chorus of assembled devils " Monsieur Joyeuse had beard enough. Tho villains ahonld cot make bis bouse n den of evil. The police must bo In formed immediately. Tho commissalro heard Monsieur Jean's horrible recital with amazement. He, with two con stables, was soon upon tbo scene. "In the namo of the king, open!" de. manded tho commissairc. The door was immediately thrown open. "What is your name? Who ore you?' VUIacomo Meyerbeer.'' "And you?" "Lnvasseur, the first bnss of tho grand opera. The commissalro at occa divined the truth, but he nsked what they were practicing. "Wo are studying tbo role of Bertram in 'Hubert tho Devil,' a new opera which will soon bo produced. In order to be undisturbed I rented this garret room," nnswered Meyerbeer, smiling. "But tho coffin! tho coffin!" cried Monsieur Joyeuse, still Incredulous. The two musicians laughed nloud. "A simple violln-oise," said tho com poser, gazing with amazement on tbe looks of poor Jenn. "You are a blockhead!'' said the com- missairo to tbe disconcerted jacitor.and, turning, bo begged most humbly to be pardoned bis intrusion. Then be with drew. A conplo of weeks nftcr Monsier nnd Madame Joyeuso had, through the gift of a couple of tickets, the pleasure of witnessing tbe first representation of the famous composer. NEARER HOME. A sweet, sweet, thought invades my mind This eve, as 'mid the fading light I feel tlio busy cares of day Subside before the peace of night. Tis this: us sure as speeds tho eliip Across the ocean's crested foam: By just the journey of a day I'm nearer home, I'm nearer home. And further from all, pain or care, From cycry human fear or cross, Much less to know of woe and tears, Or tsslo tbo cup of earthly dross. Thro' many ills I've struggled on, And past the wayside's dusty loam, By just U10 journey of a day I'm nearer home, I'm nearer home. And, oh, tho rapture that it brings To know I'm nearer my waitiug crown, And closer to my father's feet, Whero earth's burden's aro laid downl And now the night shade drifts athwart Tho splendor of von sunset dome. And by tbo iourney of 0 day I'm nearer homo, I'm nearer home. JEALOUS. "I shall never call her sister while I live!-' Minnie Appleton bit her cherry-red lip, while the deep color mounted to her brow. Mrs. Appleton looked grieved nnd perplexed. ''IIo A" delighted wo should all have been if Harry bad only fancied dear llosalind!" "Hushl" said Mrs. Appleton, glnuc ing ttwnrd tho door; "thero sbo comes now.'' "Oh, Rosalind!" criod Minnie, receiv ing her, as the French my, nvee effusion, bow glad I am to see you! Wo wero just talking about about the girl Harry is so infatuated with !'' 'Yes' said Rosalind, straightening up her tall fisurei "I have gleaned n fact or two about Miss Evelyn Austnetber, which may undoubtedly surprise sorao of her admirers. You aro aware, I suppose, where sbo lives?-' "In Merrigrove. street," Bald Minnie, shrugging her shoulders. "Well, it happens that my dressmaker lives directly oppos He; and I was there last night, at just nbout dusk, having a dress fitted. Well, ns I sat by the win dow walling for her to baste together the seams of a sleeve, I saw Miss Evelyn come out dresbed like a nun, iu n black cloak, with her face closely veiled; nnd at tbo corner of tbe street a gentleman who was leaning against ft lamp-post, steps forward, ns tine as Prince Albert, aud offers her bis arm, and oil tbey go together! Mnio. Laplace saw me looking at them, and says she; "Ob, yes: that proceeding is gone through every night In tbe week. She always goes for a walk wljh bim at this hour, rain or shine, and it is niter dark before they return." N 0 sooner bad Miss Adderley taken ber leave than Minnie flew down to Harry's room to impart to bim tbe start ling tiaings she had just received. "Nonsense," said Harry Appletou.con temptuously, "llosaliud Adderloy is a malicious scandal-monger, and you aro fools for listening to her gossip. What should my Evelyn be doing at that time of night in tbe Btreet. "That's just the very question, Harry," cried Minuie. "Will you believe your own eyes? Will you go to Mme. Lap lace's this evening and see for yoursell?" "To satisfy you, I will go," be said, coldly. Mme. Eugenie Laplace's rooms were growing dark, although it was still light out of doors, wben tbe tall, stately gen tleman called after tbe "lace basqulne," which happened, rather singularly, cot to be quite completed. "If monsieur will but wait a brief while," apologized madam, drawfng for ward a cbair by the window. And witb strained eye, and a heart which seemed to stand still in bis breast, Harry Appleton beheld the slender figure of Evelyn Austnetber.not to be mistaken in ils exquisite proportions and graceful motion, emerge from tbe opposite door way; hasten down tbe Btreet, aud finally join a figure at the corner, who offered bis arm nnd led ber away, both walking rapidly.. $1.00 Harry left tho apartment, resolutely striding ncross the street nnd ringing the door-bell. "Miss Austnether is not nt home, sir," snld tbo astonished servant-maid, who was unaccustomed to seo Mr, Appleton there at that time. "I will come in and wait until she re turns," briefly responded Mr. Appleton, Tbo minutes passed nway like hours, as Mr. Appleton paced restlessly up nnd down tbo room, waiting for Evelyn Aust nether to return, in order that be might give her back ber plighted troth once nnd forever. Tho mantel clock struck 7 as she on tcrcd, ber soft bluo eyes shining, ber cheeks flushed with healthful exercise, "Harry, you here," she cried, joy ously. "I am hero, Evelyn," was bis cold re. ply. ,'How strangely you speak! What has happened?" she questioned iu startling accents. "Much," be nnswered, still in tho same strange, hard voice. "Ihnvocome to bid you ipod-bye forever. Ono who goes night alter night to meet nn np pontuient with some stranger, without tho knowledge of her betrothed husband can scarcely expect to retain bis love." "Harry, what do you moan?" she de manded. And be told her all. She listened in Bilence. "I can seo in this," sho said, "th6 band of your sister and Miss Adderley. I knew sho was watching us, but I never dreamed she had the will or power to work evil like this." "Then you can explain it?" eagerly asked Appleton. "I would have told yon nbout it Harry, long ago, bad it not seemed like foolish nnd vain glorious boasting. I go every evening an hour to poor little lame Bes sie Warden, who has a voice liko an an gel, but whoso poverty will not allow of its being cultivated; I have given her lessons for a month to qualify ber for becoming a teacher of music." "And tho gentleman?" "I should think you would have recog- eized my brother Charley, who comes from his office ns far as the corner to meet me, and escorts me there, calling for mo afterward. Oh, Harry, could you not have trnsted me so far?" Hnrry-folded ber to his breast. "Evelyn, darling, can you ever for give me?" Yon are already forgiven," sho said lightly. "But, oh, Harry, this must be the last time you are ever jealous, either as lover or husband." "I shouldu't bavo been bo now," be nnswered, "if it hadn't been for that ser pent, Rosalind Adderloy."
