mother died when I was 21 Since then
' 'Ton Let uo My Father!"
while I have been away teaching at
Dlgby, a. cousin of my father's, Rufus
Bennoitt, and' his wife have lived with
my farther. During ithe long summer
vacation they returned to their little
farm In Vermont, and I kept house for
my father.
For Ave years I have been engaged to
be married to Henry Ellis, a young man
whom I met In Digby. .My father was
very much opposed to the match, and
has told me repeatedly that if I Insist
ed upon marrying him in his lifetime he
would disinherit me. On this account
Henry has never visited me at my own
home. , While I could not bring myself
to break off finally my engagement, I
(wished to avoid an open rupture with
tny tather. He was quite an old man,
and I was the only one he had left of
a large family.
I believe that parents should llonor
their children, as well as children their
parents, but I had arrived at this con
clusion: In nine-tenths of the cases
wJUfretm children manry against their
pareirets' wishes, even when the parents
fcave no Just grounds for opposition;
th marriages are unhappy,
I sometimes felt that I was unjust to
Henry, and resolved that If ever I sus
pected that his fancy turned toward
any other girl I would not hinder It,
specially as I was getting older, and,
I thought, losing my good looks.
A HWe while ago, a young and pretty
girt came to Dlgby to teach school In
the south district She 'boarded In the
same house with Henry. I heard that
he was somewhat attentive to her, and
I made up my mind I .would' not Inter
net. At the same time it seemed to mo
my heart was breaking. I heard her
people had money, too, and she was an
only child. I had always felt that
Henry ought to marry a wife with
money, because he had nothing himself,
and was not very strong.
School closed five weeks ago, and I
cam horns for the summer vacation.
The night before I left, Henry came to
sea me, and urged me to marry him. I
refused again; but I never before had
felt that my father was so hard and
cruel as I did that night. Henry said
that he should certainly see me during
tbe vacation, and when I replied that
he must not come he was angry, and
said but such foolish things are not
worth repeating. Henry has really a
very sweet temper, and would not hurt
a fhr.
The very night of my return home
Rufus Bennett and my father had
words about some maple' sugar which
Rufus made on his Vermont farm and
sold to my father, who made a good
trade for It to some people In Boston.
That was father's business. He had
once kept ft store, but had given It up,
and sold a few articles taat he c,ould
make a large profit on here and there at
wholesale. He used to send to New
Hampshire and Vermont . for butter,
eggs and cheese. Cousin Rufus thought
father did not allow him enough of his
profit on the maple sugar, and In the
dispute father lost his temper and said
that Rufus had given him underweight.
M that Rufus swore an oath and seized
father by the ' throat Rufus' wife
screamed, "Oh, don't! don'tl Oh. he'll
kill him!"
1 went up to RufuS and' took hold of
his arm. ... ', ' '
"Rufus Bennett," said I, "you let my
father o!"
But Rufus eyes glared like a mad
man's, and he would not let go. Then
I went to the desk-drawer where father
had kept, a pistol since some house In
the Village were broken Into; I got out
the vistoV laM) hoM of Rufus again;
and held: the muscle against his fore

dropped like a log. He was purple In
the face. Rufus' wife and I worked
a long time over him to bring him to.
VRufus Bennett," said I, "go to the
well and get a pitcher of waiter." He
went, but when father had revived and
got up Rufus gave him a look that
showed he was not over his rage.
'I'll get even with you yet, Martin
Fairbanks, old man as you are!" he
shouted out, and went into the outer
room.
We got father to bed soon. He slept
In the 'bedroom downstairs, out of the
sitting-room. Rufus and his wife had
the north chamber, and I had the south
one. I left my door open that night.
and did not sleep any. I listened; no
one stirred In the night. Rufus and his
wife wore up very early in the morning,
and 'before 9 o'clock left for Vermont.
They had a day's Journey and would
reach home about 9 In the evening.
Rufus' wife 'bade father good-bye, cry
ing, while Kufus was getting their
trunks down stairs, but Rufus did not
go near faither nor me. He ate no break
fast; his very back looked ugly when
he went out of the yard.
That very day, about 7 o'clock In the
evening, after tea, I had Just washed
the dishes and put them away and
went out of the north doorstep, where
father was sitting, and sat down on the
lowest step. There was a cool breeze
there; It had been a very hot day.
"I want to know If that Ellis fellow
iiaa been to see you any lately," said
father all at once.
"Not a great deal," I answered.
"Did he come to see you the last night
you were there?" said father.
"Yes, sir," said I, "he did come." '
'lf you ever have another word to
sa,y to that fellow while I live I'll kick
you out of this house like a dog, daugh
ter of mine though you be!" said he.
Then he swore a great oath and' called
God to witness. "Speak to ithtat fellow
again, If you dare, while I live!" sold
he.
I did not say a word; I Just looked up
at him as I sat there. Father turned
pale, and shrank back, and put his
hand to this irnroat, where Rufus had
clutched htm. There were some purple
ttnger-prtats there.
"I suppose you would have been glad
lit he'd killed im," father cried out
"I saved your life," said I.
"What did you do with that pistol?"
he asked.
"I put It black In the deek-drawer."
I got up and went around and sat on
the west doorstep, which is the front
one. As I sat there the hell rang for
the TuesJay evenmig 'meeting, . and
Phoebe Dole and Msuiai Woods, two old
ma Men ladles, dressmakers, our next
door neighbors, wem't past on their way
to meeting. Phoebe stopped and asked
If Rufus a'rtd his wife had gone. Maria
went around the house. Very soon
tihey wen't on, and several other people
passed. When they had all gome it was
as still as death. ,
I sat alone a long tlnve, until I could
see by the ehaidows thlat thw. full moon
had risen. Then I wemtt up to my room
and went to bed.
I lay awake a long time cry hug. It
seemed to me thait al hope of marriage
between Henry and me was over. I
oouW not expect hlim to wait for me, I
thought of that other girl; I could see
hier pretty face wherever I looked. But
at last I cried myself to sleep.
lAt about 6 o'clock I woke and got up.
Faither always wtant&d his breakfast ait
6 o'clock, and I hid to prepare it mow.
When! faither awl I were alone he al
ways .built the fire to the kitchen stove.
But that momlng I did not hear him
stirring as usual, and I fancied that he
must be so out of temper with me ithat
he would not build the fire.
I went to my closet for a dark blue
calico dress which I wore to do house
work in. It had hung there during all
the school term. As I took It off the
hook, my attention was caught by
something strainige about the dress I
had worn the ndight before. This dress
was made of thin summer stlk; It was
green i color, sprinkled' over with
white rings. It had been my best dress
for two summers'; but now I was wear
lTKg it on, hob afternoons iat 'home, for it
is the coolest dress I have. The night
before, too, I toad thought of the possi
bility of (Henry's driving over from Dig
toy and passing ithe house. He had
daae this someititaes during the last
summer vacation; amd I wished to look
my best 1f he did.
As I took down the calico dress I saw
what seemed to ibe a stain the green
silk. I threw on the calico hastily and
then took the green silk and carried It
over to the window. It was covered
with spots horrible great splashes and
streaks down the front. The right
sleeve, too, was stained, and all the
stailns were wet.
"What have I gat on my dress?"
sai d I.
It looked like blood. Than-1 smelled
of It and' it was sickening in my nos
trils, tout I was not sure what the
smell of blood was. I thought I must
have got the stains by some accident
the night before.
"If that is blood on my dress," I sadd,
"I .must do something 'to get It off at
once, or the dress will be ruined,"
It caime to my mind that I had been
told that blood stains had been re
moved from cloth by an application of
flour paste on the wrong side. I took
my green silk and rani down the back
etaiLrs, which lead, 'having a door at the
foot directly Into the kitchen.
There was no Are In the kitchen stove,
as I had thought Everything was very
solitary and still, except for the ticking
of the dock on the shelf. When I
crossed the kitchen to the pantry, how
ever, the cat mewed to be Jet In from
the shed. She had a little 'door of her
own toy which she could enter or leave
the shed at win an aperture Just large
enough for her maltese "body to pass at
ease beside the shed door. It had a lit
tle Hd, too, buns; upon m leather hinge.
On my way I let In the cat; then I went
to the pantry and got m bowl of flour.
This I mixed -with water Into- a stiff
paste and applied to the under sur
face of the stains on my dress. I then
hutig the dress up to dry tev the dark
end of a closet leading out of the
kitchen, - which contained some old
clothes of father's. .
Then I made up tbe fire In the kitchen
stove; I made coffee, baked biscuits and
peached some eggs for breakfast.
Then I opened the door into the sit-
tlnfroom ana called, "Father, brsaav-
fast Is ready." Suddenly I started.
There was a red stain on rhe Inside ot
the sitting-room door. My heart began
to beat in my ears.
"Father!" I called out; father!
There was no answer.
"Father!" I again called, as loud as I
could scream. "Why don't you speak?
What la the matter?"
The dour of his bed-room stood open.
I had a feeling that I saw a red reflec
tion in there. I gathered myself to
gether and went across the sitting-room
to father's bed-room door. His little
looking-glass hung over his bureau di
rectly opposite his bed, which was re
flected In It.
That was the first thing I saw when I
reached the door. I could see father in
. " a )
"Fother!w "I Called Out, "Fother!"
the looking-glass and the bed. Father
was dead there; he had been murdered
In the night.

halisteIdVwild woman.
Thought to Be a Relative of tlio Bingham
ton Herald's Wild Man Who Eats
Horses and Picks Ills Teeth with s
Crowbar,
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Hallstead, Pa., Aug. 2. Our inhabit
ants are terribly frightened over the
appearance of a wild woman, said to be
the wife of the wild man seen near
Hancock, and many will not go out af
ter dark. She was at Susquehannia on
Friday evening after the men had quit
work, and went to a machine shop and
removed with perfect ease a large 'bal
ance wheel. She mounted It and rode
towards this place as easily as many
can ride a bicycle. She was met near
Smoky Hollow by a- peddler with a
horse. She dismounted from her bal
ance wheel and possessed the same
knack as the wild matv did1 im dislocat
ing the neck of the horse, as with ono
Jerk she broke its neck. With a slight
wave of her hand she rendered the poor
peddler unconscious. She then dragged
the horse to the woods, where Its bones
were found today, showing that she
had eaten the horse. The peddler re
covered from his severe Wow, and while
sitting down thlnklmg over his trou
ble he heard two men comlnjj In the
darkness; and these proved to be Aaron
Rhlr.thart and Jason Melody, who gave
the alarm. The wild woman was not
pursued until moir,lng, when a
large crowd started in pursuit and
looking over the ground where she had
last been seen imme'.'.se tracks were dis
covered, showing the size of her foot,
the toes of which measured six Inches
In length and or.e In diameter. They
followed the trail the best they could.
As they got near Turkey HU1 they saw
to their astonishment a pile of rattle
snake Bklns, ehowlng that the creature
eats snakes as well as horses. They re
tunned on Saturday, hut had not seen'
her. It Is rumored that she is In a cave
near Mt, iManotome, but no one dare
go to find out. Officers Hlggilns and
Hogan say they will catch her yet. If
It is in thielr power.
In an Interview the peddler today In
formed the correspondent that the wo
mai was about 8 feet tall, enid he
thought weighed about 500 pounds. He
said that Instead of large sleeves, her
arms were covered 'by a heavy growth
of hair, which, he said, would ibe the
style in a few years.
HE PRINTED THE NEWS.
Speaking of Wilbur F. Storey, who cre
ated the Chicago Times, the "Listener"
of tho Boston Transcript says: "He had
a theory that the editorial chair was tho
hub around which the whole newspaper
wheel should revolve. He always sat in
the editorial chair himself, and looked at
all the business from that point of view.
As he owned the whole establishment
himself, refusing to take in any partner..
he could safely do that. His business
manager simply came to him for orders,
and took them meekly. Every one of these
orders was dictated by news considera
tions. If any news feature appeared to
Storey likely to make a hit and confound
a contemporary It made absolutely no
difference how much It cost. When
Storey grew feeble, and could no longer
come to the office at night, a managing
editor once woke him up, some time be
fore midnight on the first Sunday night
in December, with this speech:
' 'Mr. Storey, by going in with a New
York paper we can get an advance, copy-
stolen, of course of the report of the sec
retary of the treasury.
" 'Well,' said Storey.
" 'But it will cost the two papers J2.000.
I didn't like to pay out $1,000 for a piece of
news, not counting the tolls, without con
sulting you.'
"The managing editor heard a rouch
murmur, something like a great rtowI.
over the telephone. Then Storey said:
1 'Never wake me up again to know
whether you may spend 11,000 for a big
beat! I don't want to be disturbed for so
small a matter!,
The operation of this principle left the
Chicago Times worth at least $3,000,000
when Storey died, which was a consider
able property for one man to build up out
of nothing In less than thirty years."
INOALLS ON YOUTH.
It Is magnificent to be young. There Is
a superb glory and fascination about
youth. The morning of life, the spring
time of the soul. Youth is the enviable
epoch. We lose something when we cease
to be young for which time brings no
equivalent or compensation. Of youth
everything can be predicted. The heroes,
the artists, the poets, the philosophers,
the leaders of the bar, the great captains
of Industry are young. The wealth,'' the
pleasures, the dignities, the destinies of
the world are the Inevitable heritage of
the young. Some of these heirs .of fame
and fortune and felicity I have no doubt
are here, but as they look back from the
apex and Mgn divide ot success and re
call this hour they will feel that there is
no Joy the world Man give like that It
takes away when ws cease to be young.
To us who have taken our places and done
our work comes the desolating thought
that we shall grow no more. We have
been weighed and most of us found want
ing. Our speclflo gravity or levity, our
coble contents and our aew point have
been ascertained and registered; we have
become monotonous. The earth grows
fatigued with us, but it greets the young
wttfc ardent and impatient acclamation.

of alt cases of consumption can, if taken in
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured.
This may seem like a bold assertion to
those familiar only with the means gener
ally iu use for its treatment ; as, nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy emulsions, extract
of malt, whiskey, different preparations of
bypophosphltcs and such like palliatives.
Although by many believed to be incura
ble, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption is a curable
disease. Not every case, but a large per
centage of cases, nnd we believe, futtv 93
per cent, are curea ny ur, ricroe-s umu
bas progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
congh with copious expectomtiou (includ
ing tubercular matter), great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of sucn cases
reported to us as cured by " Goldeu Med.
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? You need not take
our word for it They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis.
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced nnd advised against
a trial of "Golden Medical Discovery,"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and iU filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of ito
pages which will be mailed to you, on re
ceipt of address and six cents In stamps.
Yon can then write those cured and learn
their experience.
