Farmer Keadrick had brought in an armful of snow covered logs from tbe wood pile at the north end of the house, throwing them down on the stoce hearth with, a ncide like a small earthquake when Carne Lrown started up. "Five o'clock: Oh, I had no idea it was 90 late. I must be going home." "Allow me to accompany you, ilia Brownr "Yoa will let me ste yoa home, Car rier Captain Logan and Fred Jones both spoke at once, but Carrie shook her head. "I prefer to walk home alone," the said gaily. "About the aieighing party to-morrow night," said Fred anxiously, "I I half promised Captain Logan," said the village beaut v, a rosy tint su Joe ing feer cheek, "Bat, Carrie, I thought it waa settled between us two weeks ago !" exclaimed Fred, with a frown. "Waa it ? I am tare I had forgotten it. Fred was silent. Captain Logan' smooth, soft toned voice broke the si lence. "I exact no promises," he said s titan t !y. "Bat if I Am not pant-tu.il to the hoar And the spot Kss Brown may draw her own conclusions." And Carrie went home. She w as very yretty, this bright-eyed Se Eng'and daaieel.

Ton my w ord, she's a regular beau ty," said the captain, staring through the tiny window panes at the retreating tig ure cf AlisB Broarn. - - i Fred Jones looked quickly up at him, as if be would have liked to knock him j over into the fireplace ; but he refrained from an v such demonstration. i "A beauty," went on the captain ;"and it's a thousand pitiee ahe should be waet- ed on any of the country pumpkins who vegetate aaioc j these wildernesses. Sam, ! yoa young viilian, are those boots of mine blacked vet T Fanner Kendrick's hired boy, who had jast come in to warm hia purple hands at the merry red blaie, looked glum. "No, they ain't," said Sam crcatly. "Weil, what's the reaeon T " Cause I ain't 'al time " "r?ee you find time, then, and that quickly, te," said the captain. And Sam glowered after him as he weut gaily up the stairs. "Just wish I had the firing of him out," said the boy, gioomiiy. "It's "Sam do this and 'Sam do that,' and rram, what tie deuce do yoa mean by letting my fire go out T and not a red cent has he guv me yet no, nor so each as a pleasant wonL I wonder if he means to stay here always . "You and I are about ei'ial in our love of tiai, Sam," said Fred Jones, laughing. "I Leeri him talkin'with Miss Carrie about gisg sleifcrhriding to-morrew night, said Sam shrewdly. "I'd jea' like to put 'Kicking Tom' in the shafts; I would if it weren't for Mia Carrie. He dont know not bin' about horses, that there military captain .don't." And Sam chuckled. "I say, Mr. Jones," he resumed, "why don't yoa get beforehand with him: Miaa Came don't reail r care fer him ; she's onlv dazaied like." Fred Jonea frowned slightly ; honest rram was was not exactly the sort cf Ganymede he cared to have meddle with. his love aifairs. "Miss Brown mut choore for herself Sam, he said: and rram went back to his work, secretly wondering how a young lady gifted with ordinary sense could hesitate for a moment between the captain and Fred Jones. The next night came a perfect night for sleigariding and rustic levemaking the roads hard and well pecked, and a glorious moon shining down whitely, as if a rain of silver were deluging the whole world. "Couldn't be better weather!" said the captain. "Sam, where are the sleigh bells?" "Dunno," said Sam. "There's them old jinglers in the garret that need to be long to Deacon Joe Eenericks that was ia the revolutionary war, and there is the two cow bells that Mary Jan might scour with ashes." "Tshaw r' said the captain. "Do yoa take me for Rip Van Winkle? There's a pretty little string somewhere, for I saw them when Mrs. Kendricka went out day before yesterday." "I hain't seen no thin' on 'em," said tarn. "Come, come, Sam, don't make yourself out any stapider than yon are by nature," aid the farmer, laughing nevertheless, fer the captain's Airs were fast wearing out his welcome, and he secretly sy mpa thized with the much abused Sam. "I guessed they're out in the barn chamber. You'd better go with him, captain, if yoa expext to find 'em oar Sam ia dreadful thickheaded when he chooses to be." ' Come along, icy fine fellow," said the captain, collericg, Sam, And marching him off in the direction of the old red barn. "We dont need any lantern in this bright moonlight, that is one com fort." "Where are the stairs?" demanded the captain as they entered the barn. Ain't none," said Sam, "it's a ladder." "Up witb yon, then," said Lgoan but TT rtrifanikW' awaaMMa Os if . APRIL 27, 1892. Sam shrank. "I wouIdnX E2t for tV," said Sam. "Old John Kendrick hung himself from the middle beam fourteen years ago, And people say he stands up there with a rope around his neck every moonlight night." "Stuff And nonsense," cried the captain in accents of contempt, "yoa cowardly lent, stay where yyt are and 111 go my self." He -prang lightly np the rounds of the ladder and disappeared through the trap door. "Where U it?" he called. "The ghost?

"Ill settle with you, my fine fellow, when I come down," said the captain threatening' y, as he groptnl about in the dim light which, came through a cobweb draped window at ettaer end of tne earn chamber. "Don't hurry yourself, cap'n," rejoined Sam, in a jeering tone. as tne captain piungea isw iciri . . , . 1 j corner there was a jingle and the string of bells, suspended from a nail, hit him on the neck, so liae the grasp of deatn a cold fingers that he could not but start.

And it took tie worty captain fady 60 seconds or more to realise that the trap door waa closed and fastened on the low er side.

"Carrie," whispered Fred, as he touch ed up the horse and feit her nestling close to him, "is it for always?" "Yes. always?" she answered. "Jerusalem 1" said Farmer Kendrick. It was past 10 o'clock at eight, and the old gentleman hal come out, aa u;ual, before retiring to see that the dumb members o." his family were all safe and comfortable. "I do believe that's old John Kendrick ' ghoet come to life again, ponndin' like ail possessed on the barn chamber floor 1" "It's me-el It's rue-e ! "bawlel the captain.'

"How in all creation came yea here?" he demanded. "Why, I thought yoa was out a sieighridin' with the gals 1" "It was all the doing of taat villain Sam !" tasped the infuriated captain, his teeth chattering with mingled rage and cold. "I won't stand this sort of taicg. m leave the place to-morrow." "As yoa please," said the farmer, to whom the proepect of losing his guest was not unpleasant, "rat dreadful sor ry this should have happened, though, And ni talk serioofly to Sam." "So will 1," gnashed the captain. "Ill break every bone in his body." But Sam had taken particular care to go over to his grandmother's six miles Across the anowy fiel.ls, to spend the night. And the only person the captain, saw was old Mrs. Kendrick sitting by the kitchen fire. "You've" lest your chance captain," sAid she, good hnmoredly.
