perceive before hi m the dim outlines
of a dismantled church, with its
broad avenues of graves clustered
around it. Bi .-sides the road, so
close that lie could have touched it
with Ids whip, he discovered an in
distinct white object crouched upon
one of the gr aves.
Ih-solvcd upon knowing what it
was, he dismounted and approach
ed it. As he did so, it aro?e and
tied rapi' jlv away. With his curios
ity now fully aro"used he followed it.
As it n -ared the church it turned
and su ildenly confronted him. At
this n joment a broad dare of light-
flashed athwart tlie skv and

As well as the darkness permit

had disappeared, but could find no
oiK-nin through which she could

He called a'oti l that lie was a
friend, and that she had nothing to
fear. The only answer was the
weird wail of the tempest through
the broken arches. With a feeling
akin to superstitious terror, he has
tily reniountc 1 his horse, and did
not draw rein until he reached the
village inn.
"Who occupies the old church
yonder?" he enquired of t liis land
lord. "Ah! you have seen it," exclaim

the girl whom he had met in tie
churchyard. She was looking at
him with an expression ofintc'i.-e
terror in her wdiite face and tear wet
eyes. As she stow I cowering before
him she reminded him of some in
nocent animal crouching at the
hunter's feet With an acc- nt of
deep pity he addressed her:
"1 saw you in the churchyard

night. 1 am not an enemy, nor an
idle curiosity seeker. 1 earm-.-tly

Keeping her eyes fixed upon him
with the same distrustful look, si,.
answered in a faint, far-oil' voice :
"Your friendship or your enmity
can le nothing to me. The world
you live in by its wickedness and
cruelty drove me to my death. I
am doomed to this place until jus
tice is done upon my destroyer."

miserably and I have resolved to re
store you to your rights, as well as
exact reparation from the man who
has wronged you.
He advanced toward her as he
spoke and stretched out his arm t
seize her. For an instant she seemed
uncertain how to act, then even as
his hind seemed to pass boldly !
through her shape, she melt- d into ; t
the shadow of the place. This tme-'
he did not pursue her. Her myst.- "'
rious escape, which seemed to c v.
firm her own words, began to ;:i.-1
press him with the belief that he-..;
had indeed confronted a vislt.mt -t
from the other world.
Next morning, however, cool re
flection taught him that he might
easily have deceived himself in the
excitement. He therefore resolved
all the more obstinately to pur.-tie
the investigation.
For three nights following he se
creted himself in the church and
awaited her apfK-arar.ee, but i :s
watch was fruitless. This caution
on her part fully convinced him
that he was dealing with a human

teenth century was usually a gloomy
underground chamber, dimly light

ed by massive masonry against the
escape of sound. The executioner
was probably born in the scarlet, or

perpetuated the grim traditions of
the craft. He and his aids bail paid
careful attention to the machinery ;

horrible of all was the presence of

grave imperturbability, with hard,

assitluous attentions, till the recov

One of the Travelers for a new
fresh dry goods house recently ar
rived in a town in the interior of the
State to find that one of his best cus
tomers was about to transfer his
custom to a Boston house.
''Didn't we always do well by
you?" said the New Yorker, as he
sat down for an explanation.
"Yes I believe so."
"Didn't we ship goods prompt
ly?'
' "Yes."
"And did we press you when you
were in a pinch ?"
No."
'"Did you get lower prices from
the Boston house ?"
"No, I can't say I did."
"Then I can't understand why
you should leave our house all of a
sudden after buying of us for several
years."
"I know some explanation is due,
and I will make one," replied the
merchant. "You know I attend
church ?"
"Yes, and so do I."
"Do you? I didn't know that. I
am looked upon as aC'hristian.
"So am I. I've got the date of my
baptism rirtht here in my note
book !"
"Is that so? Well our church Is
in need of repairs. We were talking
it over the other day when the Bos
ton drummer was in here, and lie at
once subscribed ten dollars."
"Ten dollars! Why that's only
two kctrs of nails ! But me down for
thirtv-five dollars cash, a new silk
hat for every season, and a full suit
of clothes for the minister."
"Do you really mean it?"
"Of course I do, and if that two
cent Christian from Boston dares
sign another five, I'll send you down
a six hundred dollar church organ,
and p.ay a man five hundred dol
lars a year to play if We are a
house w hich never make a great dis
play of gospel hymns and religious
tracts, but when a ISoston drummer
bluffs, we show our religious hand
ami rake in the pot every time.
The merchant still continues to
deal with the New York house.
