An Agrecnble Story of n Cnso of Very Sensitive Conscience. rrom the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. Forty j'ears ago a certain Clevelnnd family lived on Huron street, close to the coiner of Miami. Huron stieet wad a leading thoioughfare then, and a number of prominent Clovelandeis re sided In the neighborhood. Th6 lady of the house was a young bride, and she and her husband had arrived In Cleveland quite recently. On -Miami street lived a famtlvv'n very moderate circumstances, and among the numer ous children that filled the tlnv house wa a boy called Johnny. He wai a blight, manly little fellow of peihaps 8 j'ears, nnd the Huron street bildf took quite a fancj lo him. Ho would come to her home every day and do her simple ei rands, and she alwavn had something nice to give him One day he was playing In fioht of the brldo's homo with some other boys, when he chanced to throw a stone that missed Its mark and crashed through a jiarlor window. Th'd bride, happened lo see the accident, and ns the little fellow looked up and saw her an njonlzed ex prsrIon clouded his late nnd ho turned ind took to his heels. He never camo again to the Huron stieet house. Look a sha might the biide caught sight of him no moie A few weeks later Johnny's family left tth'o tltj", and Jihnny was soon only faint munoiv. The bride Is now a grandmother and lU'es In a handsome bouse In the sub til ba. One daj not long ago the maid brought hei a callei's card. It bore the name of "John Robinson." She looked at It with a puzzled Mr. Sho had no acquaintance of that nime. Put she went downstairs and con fionted a fine looking, portly gentle mtn, well dressed and beating un un mtstnkable air of prospcrltj. He advanced to meet her. "You wished to ice me'!" Inqulrnl the ludy ns she looked again at the card. "Yes, madam,' ho answeitd, "en a slight matter of business," , Sho looked up at him eiulckly and dtew back a little. "No," hi smilingly observed, "I am not an aaout. The fact ls, madam, I lrive culled to paj a debt that has been accumulating inteiesr all these j'tuis, and which I have neglected to pay bo foie, because I have never slnco been In the neighborhood " v "A debt?" echoed tho ladj. "Theie must be some mistake" "No mistake at ull, madam," said the strangei, cheerily, and he reached his hand )n his pocket. There wns a gold coin In It as he drew It forth, "Theie, mudnm," hi said, "I want to pay you for the w Indow I broke In your house on Huion stteet one July day In ll57." Then It all came back to her, "And you vou are Johnny?'' she cried. "Yen. madam," he annuel ed, "I'm Johnny." And their bunds met In a tight clasp, "And you jeniembtfied that little ac cident all these many years?" she said. "Why, I had forgotten It long ago." "Poihaps 1 had hotter cause to re member It," he smilingly flald. "It wan a dreadful affair to me. I saw the Jail door opening, I heard the clank of chains. Then I somehow felt sure that you would come and tell my father, nnd lie was not a gentle man, as you may lemember. But ns hour followed hour and you did not come I begun to breathe a little ngnln, nnd, oh, you cannot tell how grateful I wns to you. 1 did not dale go and see you for fear of poslble conscqliences, but when we went nwnj' I made up mv mlijd that some dny I would pay eveiy penny It coat to mend thntbroken pane. And here I am." The lady looked at hlin with glisten ing eyes. Somehow she seemed to see ngaln the tlieless, manlv little hoy of that long-ivgo time. "And jou have piosperedV" she asked. "Yes," he answeted smilingly, "I'm reckoned one of the solid men of Cali fornia, I live Just outside of San Fianclco, hnve what I nm told Is a charming home, a bcnutlful wife, nnd two fine boys' In the tinlveislty. And when I have this little debt paid I shall possess a thoroughly clear con science as well." "Put away your money John," said the woman. "It's worth a hundied times that to see you so well nnd happy " "I found out about you bpforc I came out bete," said John. "I Inquhed with some fear and trembling fotty yeais bring ninny changes, you know. But I went direct to the foimtalnhcad for Information.
