Poetry
The First and Utt Drink.
Bt IAXK DKMATNH.
"Oh I why don't papa comet Mamma,
It teem so long to wait,
Something tnnst have happened,! fear;
For what would keep him so late t"
"I am getting so very tired, mamma,
But papa la not coming yet,
t wonder If he won't soon be here,
Or has he forgotten hia little pet."
As these word Were wafted to me.
By the evening breeze, so warm
Those sweet words our darling uttered
As he guzed out over the lawn.
My feeling were stirred within me.
By the aadnessof the tone,
As I heard him slowly uttor,
Why don't papa come homo."
Oh I that I could paint the picture
That on turning met tny gaze
'Twos bo sod and still more touohing
Than imagination ever portrays.
On the sofa there reclining
With her fane so calm and white
Lay the darling's sainted mother
Her soul almost ready to take Its
flight
Down on the velvet covered floor be
side her,
The darling in innocent beauty knelt,
With his face so full of childUh sadness
That the starting tears, I could not
help.
With his arms ent wined about her,
In his Innocent loving way,
He raised his small white hand,
And brushed her falling tears away.
While the son in mellow softness
Sending forth its last bright gleam;
With all its beauty and its glory
Lit up the entire scene.
Suddenly the darling started
As an approaching etep he hear
And as he smiles, and runs forward
All his sorrow quickly disappears.
Down the walk he quickly hastens
Shouting merrily us he rnn:
"Papa's coming I papa's coming !"
And he clapped his little hands.
Dut he paused as he drew nearer
Started as if by some sudden feur
As he gazed upon the countenance
Of his father; whom he held so dear.
Could It be I and yet what was it,
That made him look so strange and
wild T
A he sprang forward, aud clasped
In his arms, his loving child.
'Twos so soon, a moment only,
That he held him there so tight,
Then with the cry of u imttilao,
Threw him against the inurblo plllur
so white.
Tearfully I raised our darling
But his little life hud fled,
Saw a little mark upon forehead
But he was numbered with the dead.
Bat a cry of bitter aiigufnli
At that moment foil upon my ear
And there stood the darling's mother
In the fading twilight drear.
With her arms extended towards him
"Husband I Husband I" she loudly
cries
Then a low moan escapes her
And fainting on the floor, she lie.
Bee I he kneel beside her, he is sober
now, .
All hi wlldnesB, all hi strangeness
gone,
A he moans, in broken acoents:
"My wife I my child 1 Oh, God What
have I done."
TIs morn, and o'er that beautiful
mansion,
The sun its brightest rays has shed,
But it calls forth no rejoicings,
All is still and mourning for the dead.
But in an elegant upper chamber,
Pacing wildly to and fro,
that husband, and that father
Of a few short hour ago.
Ill post life float before hi in
And he see his father.once so brave,
."ragged aown by the cup of Intom
peranoe ' Until he nils a drunkard's grav e.
Then he kneels besides his mother
And solemnly take the vow
Never to touch the bowl of Intemper
ance - ,
And he hears her prayer's even now.
But soon his mother fades away
And be Is leftdfisolate.sadand alone,
With no friend to look to for aid,
A mere outcast without a home.
Tim file on, and he sees himself
Attaining wealth, honor and position
wnu ne keep bis promise true
And avoids all liquor by Intuition.
Bu ddenly a change come o'er him
A these scene fade tn
With hands clasped, and flashing eye

The Gambler's End.
Beyond the bilsiro thioket the
(rambler made hia stand. Onrson,
tba deteotire, wm in full pursuit,
and as ha burst thro' the balsa n hs
found himself within twenty feet of
his antagonist. Both men stoo I for
an instant looking full at eaob other.
Doth were expert. Ejoq kuetr the
other.
"You count," said webe gambler,
ooolly. .
"One, two," uid the diteative.
"three, Fire 1"
Oue pistol alone sounded. The
gambler'i bad fuiled to explode t
"You va wont yon needn't deal
again, said tha gambler. Aod then
Le dropped, the red stain on his
white shirt-front showing whore he
was hit.
'There'asome liat and bind ige,"
said tha deteotive, and ho flung a
small package into the gambler's
lap. "I hope you won't die, Dick
Raymond."
"Oh, it was all f.iir, Ciraoo," said
tha other, careless, "I've held a poor
band from tbs start "
lie paused, for tbs detective - had
rushed on, and he was alone.
Twenty rods furthor ou the do-
teotive had o-tugbt up with the trap
per, whi wis calmly reolinring his
pieoe. On the e le of the ledge
above, the half broed lay dead, the
lips drawn back from bis teeth, and
his ugly coaotonance distorted with
hate and rage, A rifle, whose muz
zle smoked, lay ot bis side i and tbo
edge of the trapper's left ear was
bleediog.

I'm afraid he's hard hit."

"i ii go au a see tne uoy, ' answer
ed the trapper. "Yju'H find Henry
furder up. There's ouly two runniu.'
You and he can bring thorn iu."
The old trapper saw, as he do-
siendud the hill, the body rocliuing
on the mosses at tho edge of the
balsam thicket. The earth cave
baak no souud as he advanced, uud
hs reaohed the gambler and was
standing almost ut bis very feet, ere
the youug mm was aware of his
presence i but as the trapper passod
between him and the shining water,
he turned bis gaze np to the tr ip
per's fuoe, and after studying the
grave lines for a momeot, said :
You've won the game, old
man.
mi. -a
me irapper lor a moment made
no reply. He looked ste adfastly in
to the young mau oounteu anco, fix
ed bis eyes on the red stain on the
left breast, and then said .
"Shall I look at the bole,
boyt"
The gambler smiled pleasantly
and nodded bis bead, suj iug, "it's
the natural thing to dj in these
cases, I believe. Lifting the bands.
he nnsorewed the sulitair stud shorn
the white boaotn. The trapper knelt
by the yon Dg man's aide, and laying
back the linen from the chest, wiped
the blood stain with a piece of lint
from the white skin, aod carefully
studied the edges of the wound,
seeking to ascertain the direction
the bullet bad taken as it penetrat
ed the flesh. At last be drew biuv
self to his feet, not a shade in the ex
pressiou of bis face revealing the
thought.
"Is it my last deal, old man f"
asked the gambler, carelessly.
"I've seed a good many wounds,"
answered the trapper, "and I've not
ed the direction of a good many bul
lets, and I never knew a man to live
who was bit where ye be hit if the
lead had slant inward, as . the piece
has that has gone in to ye."
For minute the youog man
made no reply. No change came to
his couteoance, lie turned bis eye
from the trapper's fuoe and looked
pleasantly off toward the water. lie
even whistled a line or two of an old
love ballad, then he paused, and,
drawn perhaps by the magnetism of
the steady gaze which the eyes of
the trapper fixed npon him, be
looked again la the old man's face,
and said i . . . . .
"What is It, John Norlo n f
MI be srry fur ye, boy I answer
ed the old man. "I be sorry for ye,

I wish that jour, years might be

in the judgment."
"You aren't fool enough to be

any judgment day, do you V
"1 dju't know much about church
members," answered the trapper,
"for 'vo nsver beeu io tlie suttlo
ments i leastways, never studied
the habits of the creaturea, and I
dare say they differ, boiu' good sod
bad, I've soed some that was curtain

much about church members, but
cuitainly believe i yes, 1 know
there'll be a day when tbo Lord shall
jodge the livio' aud the dead ; and
the honest trappor shall stand on
one side and the vagabond that pil
fers his skins and steals bis traps
shall stand on the othor. Thia is
what the Book says, and it sartinly
seoms reasonable i for the two
deeds that be did on the earth bo of
two sorts, aod the folks that do'em
be or two kinds, and atwte', must
make adividin' line."
"And when do yon think this
judgment is, John Norton V asked
tho gambler, as if be was eojoyiog
the crude but honest idea of his
companion. Tho tripper hesitated
a moment before be spoke, then
said t
"I conceit that the jodgment be
always goin' oo. It's a court that
never adjourns, and the desertors
and the knaves aud the disobedient
in the regiment be always on trial.
Hut concoit that there comes a
day to every nnn, good and bad,
when tho record of his deeds be
looked over from the start, aod tie
good and the bad counted np, and
in that day gits tho fiual jodgment
whether it be for or ngiu him. And
now, boy," coulioued the old mm
solemnly, with a touch of iuGnife
tenderuess iu the vibration of hit
voico, "ye be nijjh jedgment day
ytti'sulf, and the deeds ye have did,
both tbo good and tbo bad, will be
passed in review."
"I reckon there isu't mncb elm no a

"Tho court be a court of inorcy ;
and the judge looks npon 'em that
come up for trial as ef be was their
fatbor."
"That ends it, old man," answer
ed the gambler. "My father never
showed me any mercy when I was a
boy. If he hod, J shouldn't have
been here now. 11 1 did a wrong
deed, got it to the last inch of the
lash," and the words wore more in
tenBly bittor because spoken so
quiotly.
"The fathers of tho 'arth, boy, be
not like the father of hoaven, for I
seed them correct their children be

They whipped io tbuir rago, and
not in their wisdom ; they whipped

whole row of figures at the ask-

"At the asking f" said the gamb

"Sartin, sartln, I be a praying
man, said tbe tiampper, sturdily,
"At the aakiug 1" murmured tbe
gambler, softly,.
"Sartin, boy," answered the trap
per "that's the line the trial takes,
ye can depend on it, and it will bring
ye to the end of the great olearin' in

"It's a quick deal, but I oan see I
that it might end as he says, if the '
feeling was right
For a momeot nothing was said .
Tbe trapper stood looking steadfast
ly at tbe youog man on tbe moss as
he lay with his face Inrned np to the
sky, to whose color had come the
first shade of awful whitenosi.
Up tbe mountain a rifle oraoked.
Neither stirred. A red squirrel ran
out npon the limb, twenty fool above
the gambler's head, and shook tbe
silence into fragments with bis chat
luring i thon sat gazing with startlod
eyes at tbe two raeu nodurnearth.
"Oan yon prny, old man V askod
the gambler, quiotly.
"Sartinly," answered tho trap
por. "Can yon prny in words 1" Sbkod
the gqinblor again.
For a moment tho trapper hesitat
ed, then he said i "1 can't say that
I can. No, I sartinly can't say that
I could nndertake it with a reason
able chance of getting through ;
least iv iue it wouKlu't be in a way ti
holp a man any."
"Is there any way, old man, iu
which we can go partners T" asked
the gamblor tbe vocabulary of whose
profession still clung to hita in tho
solemn counseling.
"I was thinkiu' of that," answered
the trapper i "yis, I was thinkiu' ef
we couldn't sortor jine words, anil
each heip tbe other by doin' his own
part himself. Yis," continued tbo
old man, after a momout's rolloction,
"tbo pluu's a good uo ye pray for
yersolf, aod 711 pray for tnysolf
and of I can get in anything that
scums likely to do ye sorvico, yo oan
couut on it as ye can on a gr.ovod
barrel."
"Aud now boy," said the trappor,
with a solomn enthusiasm, such a
faith might give to a suppliant saint,
which lighted his features until
his couiitonaoco fairly sliono with a
light which came out of it, rather
thun upon it from tho suu ove lieul,

The trapper kuolt on tbo moss at
tha gaiublor's feet. Ho clasped tho
fingers of his reat ban.lu'juutil they
interlaced, an 1 lifted hia wrinkled

now and thon, as the silent prayer '
went on, two great tears left tho
protection of the of tho closed lids
and rollod down tbe rugged check.
The gambler also closod his eyes i
then his bauds quietly stole into tho
other, aud avoiding the bloody staiu,
rested on bis breast t and thus

with needed auswer the silent, np-
going prayer.
The two opened their eyes nearly
at tbe same instant. They lookod
for a moment at each other, and
then tbe gambler feebly lifted his
band, and put it into the broad
palm of the trapper. Not a word
said. No word was needed. Some
times men nndorstand each other
better than bv talking. Tbon the
gambler pioked tbe diamond stud
from the spot where it rested, slip
ped the solitaire ring from bis finger,
and said as be banded them to tbe
trapper t

gravely. .
