THE SCRAKTON TRIBUNE-MONDAY MORNING, JANUARY 25, 1897. c The Majesty of the Law By BLANCHE WILLIS HOWARD. Madame von Teullel. Author ot "Guenn," "One Summer," etc. (Cops rlKlit, lbU", by lllaiictio WitUs UowarJ Ton Toultel,) T r l'AUT I. Sajlnff nothliiB oC hl puipoqe to whom Indeed should he speulc now that Clnlstel was dead? the little old man set foith. ThK In smlistniire, li the tule lie told the laWlei whom he Jour neyed to town to consult. His name was Jakob HlellitiPU a peasant ot Sonneiihelm, seventy-three jiais old He had lived n labotlous and honest life. None of his lare was eei chained with ctlme or nils' deineanoi. Koi mule than two huiv their first hard words about that house, and Chrlstel said she'd die bufoie she'd so much as look at It. They quaneled, and had been man and wife nine and forty yeais, and never befoie discontented with eath other one whole day no, not tenllj foi an hour. It was known far and wide thi't they two pulled strons and smooth together, and, old as yotttifr, sat sniiKly side by side. At weddings In the whole UL'lon lound about, It was customaiy to wish the young pair wedlock as lonsr died leais thei had tllltd the soil of and peaceful as old Jokeb's and his Sonneiihelm, tolled In their cornfields Chilstel h. That Is w hat they weie inl and lneyuids, wionued no man. hail til he built the new house been GtUheied. line In eais of stain less lcmitatlin, to theli fatheis. Such hud been the Sonneiihelm Hlelbtreus, not, lndede, unions the i Idlest, but a solid, thilfty, law -ubldlnir luce. He had owned his cottage, his fathei's and Ktundfuthei's befoie lilm. In It, on Ills own land, he had lived fm t -nine jeais with his wife Chils tel Dining that long time they had met their shale of good and 111 luck with cattle, wine and flops, had lost both sons good lads and stuidy us jou'd seldom llnd In the wai, one daughter had married and moed away one had died; there had been stoitn as well as fall weather, vet, all In all, he would not say they had not been peace ful and piosperous enough, and ho lould complain of nothing, for he and his old Clnlstel had got on lately to gether f i om the 111 st. It was two jeais and one month now, since he had I 'gun to build Ills new-fangied house near the village. What Induced him to do It he knew not lie had neei been one of those that nie tioubled with ideas, never been tempted to stait up and do things, was alwuis content to plod along the safe wny of his foiefatheis. Hut other men weie building. They talked lame at the village Inn oei their beer. Times weie changing, they aid. Some even piophesied that, be foie many yeais, the shilek of the fctiam entrlne would be heaid In those quiet meadows. It was like a level that talk at the W.ildluun. Solid men, they bald, should come forward, when land was going up like pan cakes, and show theiiihelveb enterptls ing and public-splilted, not stick in theli shells like snails. Piojeots, ad vlfcp, figures and ptobahllltles weie paiaded until his htad twain. He used to so home across the field and tiy to explain what he had heaid to Clnlstel. He lenuuked, better than yesteidav the llibt time he bioached the subject He came Into the kit "hen and took olt his boots, and she tetchid Mm his cat pet-slippers and skull-cap-all still and filendly as was hei way. Aftei they had theli imi.i1 suppei of pood boiled potatoes and thick, Mini milk, which they always ate in s-il"iice for It was best to give join mind to our meals and uftei she handed him 1 is long pipe and tobacco pouch, and Ik had pulled awhile he began to talk, and not befoie, lot when he had any thing to saj he liked to sit down qulet lv and get leadj, and not feel hunld. So he sat In his chair and smoked, and spoke between his whiffs, while Cln Istel bat in hers and knitted and bald nothing. Hut, oinehow, in the till ottage, away from the men's encoui (igement, things bounded altogether dlf feient At an late, he could not louse hei to any sense of thelt Impoitance, or make her undo! stand She listened quite unconcerned, and clicked on busllv, asking no questions and making no comments. But when nine o'clock came, and she cot up to lay aside her bpectacles and knitting, and look after Hie and light", she said in her quiet way-she was always a quiet woman, his wife Chrlbtel bhe thought she and In i good old Jokeb would be apt to sleep well and long on it befoie they took up outlandish notions. And, somehow, it sec-roily triltated Mm that she felt so or lire, and eveiy day at the Waldhorn the men's talk pulled him the- other way. It was long before she beemed able to ciasp the fact that he was In eain tst, and no wonder, tor never befoie lud they two divided opinions upon anv course whatevei. When she at length peicelved his mind was made up, she opposed most bitterly. Why, at theli age, so neai the gtuve, build huuses? Why have notions? Why bink their haid-earned savings In building, when they had their own good Haus and HofV Why e themselves with noise and change? Weie the not well enough and content? Let sti ang ers come to the village and the iailwa and loads of money-bags, If such things were to be; but all wab not gold that glittered, and the queen of Sheba and Well, he built It. It cost moie than he had leckoued. It swallowed all his Bavlngs, and even that was not enough. Ill luck put sued him from the day he laid the foundations. Somehow all his money tiansactions went wrong. He had to mortgage his cottage and his larm Then came the gieut dt ought and dlstiess on eveiy side; no ciops, no feeble steps and gone the long way twice Inte unci alone. The young couple, too, had bade him good-night v hen he relumed. They piotested that It would have been Impossible for him to lruve or enter the house without theli knowledge, There he was, sound oMeep as Hv e o'clock. Does a man commit a deed of that soit, and sleep like an Innocent child? He went about silent as UBiial for a few weeks, after width his vailous bodllv Infli mltles culminated In a long IHncRs, and he was mote or less bed ildden nil winter, but seemed able to bear his lot placidly; In fact, the young couple thought him iitthei less melan choly than befoie. Memwhlle, In the sober little village where one lobust sensation might nf foid entertainment for jeais, the mo tives of the mjsterlous lncendlaiy were exhaustively discussed. The peasants confionted the gruesome possibility that their own good fatmhouses and fat barns might blaze up at the touch of the same mlscieunt hand. Unimaginative pates pioduced and proclaimed mon strous theoiles A eeitaln agitation and suspicion lnllamed late oratory over beer mugs a1 the Waldhoin. Young Holz was the last petson seen In the sticet bv the watchman on the fatal night. Some good folks knew loi n positive fact that nobody but he set Bleibtieu's new house atlie. For what motive' Why, for dev lltij. Was that not motive enough fur Thomas Holz? Pel haps when people weie grilled and l ousted In their beds they would begin to peicelve what a dangeiuus and rep lehcnslve jourg scamp he was. There was a distinct antl-Holz faction. A poor lad who once, In a pt but this was jeais ago--bad threatened to set BEDRIDDEN. FIFTEEN YEARS OF SUFFERING. , 1 JJ i-i -U TIL ADR r V t The Doctors Hunted Seven Hundred Dollars to.

THE her gorgeou&ness had not yet arrived, Sonneiihelm was pietty .much as she H-membeied It going on seventy jeais, except for un unusual lot of foolish men folks' tulk. Suiely, she and hei Jokeb would not giow feather-brained, but go on steady and suie, hand In hand, ane' keeping to old fashions. The moie she pleaded, the more stub brrn he became, as if In his old uge suddenly possessed of n devil He might have lemembered Chrlstel was nlwuys right. Never a woman of many woids, but what she said rang true. An jc for a horse, for cattle well, sharp er than his own or any man's he knew; a sound heud at market and for faini woik, and judgment In all things, But he, In anger, told her men's bc'hemes weie too deep for womenfolk And so It came ubout that they had foddet and his cattle sold foi a song. Finally his health gave vva, and Clnls tel sickened and died. He bulled hei on the ninth of Novembei, seventeen mouths gone. She had diooped fiom the time he began building, bhe took It so to heatt. That Is what the new house cost him. Theie It stood empty and useless No one would buy It. He hated It The cottage of his fathers, wheie he and Chilbtel had lived half a centuiy In good and evil dus, and wheie theli child en weie boin, he was obliged to sell. The newcomeis left him his old sleeping-room, w hlch he occupied. A lonely old man, he came and went si lently, tioubling nobod. The new facer und voices f letted him solely. Day and night he missed his Chi istel and blooded over his misfortune. The new house w us his cuise. Had he not built It, he would not have lost his health, his money, his home, his rutin, his peace of mind and his good old wife. Ovei the very thought of it they two fell out for the 111 st time in their lives She kept hei woid; never looked at it building; never saw It done; It was haidly finished when she died. Had he listened to her,, all would still be well Thus he blooded continually, and a dull, Impotent luge possessed him more and more, a sense of peisonal enmity tow aid the house which neither he 1101 anybodj else wanted, and which hud tobbed him of his Clnlstel, the blessing of all his dajs. One evening, the previous November, he was 1 cunning fiom u nelghboilng maiket town with some of the village! s. He had done little enough business, meiely a few small mallei s which he had undertaken foi the young couple in his cottage, and once he was one of the most Impoitant and lespected men on the maiket. Such letlectlons galled Mm. It was haid, in one's old age, to lose the fiults of all the patient labor of one's life, as well as the conscious ness that one Is of weight In the com munity. So he was taciturn, and came along with the others, mostly oung men, meiely fiom habit, and because they weip all from Sopnenhelm: and sat with them In the Drei Mohien and the Sihwalbe and the Traube, and the oth er Inns where they htopped for beer or cider or new wine, jet diank noth ing himself, except one glas of the new joung Thomas Holz, who was a bit meity, insisting upon It and haidl.v heard theli boasts and laughter, so lost was he In his own dieailness Finally, however, on the load home waid, their loud wit tinned upon him Bolz, chaffing him noisily about what people now called "Bleibtieu's Folly," abked him If he as going to hang lace cui tains In the windows and have a doorbell like city folks, pel haps who knew? a piano or even a smait joung wlte; such things had happened be foie now to sly old men; and joked on,. not unkindly; but after the Jovial fash Ion of joung men who have partaken at bilef Intervals of beei, older and new wine Yet, as they parted at the stile foi Bleibtieu's way lay oei the fields, the others down the high load to the village young BoU was not too meiry to notice how wearily the old man walked, and to turn and accompanv him' a bit across the fields, holding his a-m; an I this was not much after ten o'clock, as all of them could and did testify. Towaid five o'clock on the following moinlng, B'.elbtieu, slenplng soundly, was waked by the joung couple, who Infoi med l.lm that his new house was binned to the gioiiud. He made no comment, got up, went over and quietly surveyed the scene of the conflugiatlon, leturned and ate a bettei bieukfast tluin usual. The authorities, Investigating as a mere matter ot form, exumlned him and dlschaiged him piomptly No shade of suspicion clung to him for a moment. The building was unlusuied What motive, then, could a man have to desttoy his own propel tj? Besides, the young men testified, Bolz hud as sisted him some distance 011 the night of the lire, and It seemed scarcely rea sonable to suppose he had letiaced his Inc- to Mimebodj's mill, was anathema tized by anothet gioup. But i.ne and mild veislons of such Illinois leached the 111 old man duilng the w Intel. People, curiously enough, weie too intent upon the mysteiy of his binned house to concern them selves much about lilm. Late In Mai eh he ventuied out foi the flist time, lis tened to the stein, as well as foolish, talk at the Waldhoin, became sud denly cognizant of the strong feeling that had been accumulating steadily for a half yeai, and peicelved that public sentiment was like- a swollen btieam seeking an outlet. So, sajlng nothing to anybody for to whom should he speak, now that Clnlstel was dead' he got a lift to the maiket town, and came down by lull, foi the flist time In his lite, to the capital, to tell the learned gentle man whom Blelbtieu said, men at the Waldhoin and Diel Mohien had called the Ft lend of the Folk, all the evil that had befallen him, and to confess that he himself the night that the young fellows, meaning no haim, jeeied him, and his gilef and lage weie gi eater than he could beai had le ciossed the tie-Ids, hid hinibelf from the watchman, waited until all was still, stole into tlie new house, hi ought down and dlbtiibuted eveiy wheie stiaw which was stored In the ganet, set flie to the accursed place at seveial points, locked the door and ciept awa unseen and unheal d as he came.
