Ifl&> BY INCoTT COMPANY* / CHAPTER XIX Some days after the occurrences last mentioned Dabney went to Sparta and, after conferring with Torrance, th< latter said: "I must see Carruthers. and I must see that will before the meeting oi court. Dabney, sometimes old eyes, though they have to wear spectacles, car see things which younger, from want of experience in searching, may overlook. Aside from Amerson's pas sion for our client (and that is natural enough), he's in a scare of some sort; of what I can't tell; but I will find out. Ilis patronage of Carruthers is suspi cious, and you must see that he is taken care of by Rachels in the inter im. That Amerson had a purpose in having the paper so copied I haven't a doubt. It's our business to find out what that purpose was. My theory, a« I believe I wrote you. is that he fraud ulently substituted the copy for the original when the old man demanded it for the purpose of destroying it. It will be a new question whether such a thing would be construed as a revoca tion; but if we can prove the fact, we'll get such a hold on men's minds regarding the scoundrel that we can force him to terms outside of his pro posed conditions, which a man of any Sort of sensibility never would have offered. If I don't get to Milledgeville Friday night, before court. I will cer tainly the next day in time for a look in the ordinary's office." ITe did not come until Saturday near noon. After dinner he, with Dabney, repaired to the courthouse. fie read the will carefully, twice, occasionally lingering at a word as if hesitating what it was, or what it meant. Calling for the inventory which Amerson had rendered in, ho looked over that as carefully, then said, in a low voice: "Dabney, are you at all familiar with Amerson's handwriting?" "No; I've seen it sometimes, and I readily recognize his signature." "The writings seem to have been made by one hand, yet in the will it appears constrained. Let me compare them somewhat longer." After so doing, he took the will to a window, and lifted it between his eyes and the sunlight outside. Smiling, he called to Dabney, and said: "Look over that thing again, and, doing as I have done, say if you sec anything strange." After doing as ho bid, Dabney an swered no. "There!" he said, almost angrily, putting his finger on a particular spot, "don't you see that word in pencil?" "Now I do," said Dabney. "Oh, the sun! the glorious, true beaming sun! We've got him, as sure as God is in Heaven! Now, my lad. you step down town and pet Ilainer to come with you. Yonr legs are more active than mine. The old man Flint trades with him frequently, doesn't he?" "Almost entirely." "That'll do. Run, my sou, and bring him here. Tell him t/otn ot us think it is important." The conference of the three was brief. The merchant smiled after a brief scrutiny of Mr. Flint's attesta tion. and promised to accede to the re quest to keep silent what he had dis covered. Yet later in the afternoon he said to a customer: "Seaborn Torrance, I see. is in Mil ledgeville. Between you and me, I believe he's the biggest man in the whole state of Georgia. You're ffoing to see some fur fly before he leaves this town." "What do you mean?" the others asked. "Never mind; do you come to the courthouse Monday morning?" When the lawyers had returned to the tavern, Torrance said: "Dabney, do you know, sir, that ever since you told me fully of the admis sions made by Carruthers I've been hoping that the case was as we've found it to be? And did ever a villain more fully betray his own self? As you know, I'm not a church member, but I'm not more sure of my own exist ence than that this world is governed by an Intelligence which is as just and merciful as it is wise, which, ie no trouble. I declare it touched mo to pee tears in his eyes when I spoke of what sort of man lils father was, and what an honorablo name he had left. It was every word the truth. Helgn-ho!" CHAPTEH XX Karly after breakfast on Monday morning Torrance and Dabney went to tho courthouse and waited for 1 Rachels and Carruthers. "I feel first rate this iteming, Pab ney. Good faith, I feel nigh a$ young as you look. What a man is then} Rachels! to say nothing of the sort 01 toddy he can make for an old fellow like me to go to sleep with. I don't take 'em often, specially at night; but I thought I would last night, as much for politeness' sake to Rachels as any thing else. Yes, he's a good man. The older I get the more I admire how it is that the good Lord often puts in lowly places men such as him. But yonder they come. What a graceful mover is Carruthers, in spite of his crutch, and how tastefully got up! Well, Gus. flow do, Mr. Carruthers? The top of the morning to you. sir. If you and I were better acquainted I'd call you Owen, knowing and respect ing your father as I did. But on such &s that we'll talk hereafter. I want to have a little chat with you about this paper just handed me by the clerk, | which purports to be, but is not, the j last will of Pearce Amerson. It's a i pity you were sick when it was first j offered for proof, or all the trouble j about it would have been saved, at least on one side. Please come with in the bar." When they were seated side by side, he said: "Look it over carefully by way of preparing yourself for Rome questions which I am going to put to you on tho stand. Note those signatures. Bless me! what a magnificent hand yott do write! and how well you can imitate!" Carruthers read a few lines on the first page, turned over, and, after scru tinizing narrowly the signatures, turned it back and fixed his eye on the spot at the top where the word "Copy" in pencil by his own hand had become nearly obliterated. He became deadly pale, and, looking at Torrance for • moment, rose, and, grasping his crutch, got out of the bar, and was making for the door, when Rachels caught hto arm and seated him by his side on thf bench. "Let me loose, Gus Rachels!" he said, nanting. "I won't have anything t«." He sat down with a groan. Just then the sheriff was ordered to open the court. Justice Ingrain, who pre sided, announced that such cases as eonld bedisposed of by summary action would be called first. Informed that there was but one on the docket that would require a Jury, he hoped that in not a long while the court might be able to sit In ordinary. Confessions of judgment, verdicts that had been agreed upon, continuances, appeals by jonsent, and their likes, were entered, md the jury trial, that was promised to consume little if any over an hour, was begun. Whispers of sympathy along with those of admiration were made by the gathering crowd in the large courtroom, as Hannah with her son sat by the clerk's desk. Her beau tiful sad face on which were blushes both of health and embarrassment, her tremulousness, knowing herself to be the cynosure of many men's eyes, all made her an object of eager Interest. Torrence deported himself when near her with profound respect, leaving Dabney to entertain during the time of waiting. He had said in a low voice to her shortly after entrance: "Mrs. Amerson, I must congratulate you on having had Mr. Dabney as counsel. He has worked up your ease with admirable tact and judgment, and we have strong hopes of conduct ing it to a satisfactory issue." "Why, Mr. Torrance, Arthur says you arc the one whom I am to thank main ly, no matter how the case goes. He also lets me hope that we are to suc ceed." "My dear madam, the one difficulty withl>at>ney m » u«y«r Is that he Is too modest. I hope he will (jet over that In time. I tell jou again that he deserves all I have said." In the midst of the trial, Watson, go ing to Torrance, said: "Torrance, you seem very confident. You'd look that way, however, if you knew you didn't have as much as a (Train of sand to stand on. Such as that don't fool me. Vet I wish wo could settle this ease somehow. Amerson would consent to something reasona ble. I've told him I thought he ought to, for family reasons, and he Is will ing. You ought to know that vou can't break that will by any amount of proof of what old Amerson said about It. I've told Amerson plainly that if there was any fraud In the thing I wanted to have nothing to do with it, and he has always assured me solemnly that there was not. What do you say to an offer of twenty thousand dollars, and lot tho widow and her child take all the real estate that was not disposed of by the will?" • "I'll make known your offer, Watson. If it's not satisfactory—as I hardly think It will submit a propo sition of our own." After brief consultation with Han nah and Dabney. he rapidly wrote and handed to Watson the following: "STATE or GEORGIA: HAI.DWIW COCHTT. "In the Inferior court of said county, Bitting »H a court of ordinary: "L Hannah Amerson, cavaetrlx, eta va Wlloy Amerson, propounder, eta. "8.

That besides the costs aocrued'ln snob casas, the said Wiley Ainerson will pay to Ar thur Dsbney, counsel therein, hts fee of five thousand dollars, and to Soaborn Torrance his of twenty-flve hundred dollars. "ARTHUR DAKNEY, "SEABORN TORRARO*." "There, Watson," he said, "that's about what we think we can afford to do for you." Amerson, when he read the paper, writhed in anger too fierce to admit fear. "My God!" he gafiped. "No! Of course, no! I'll fight till I die, first. People mayn't like the will, but they can't break it. I've done all I can, Mr. Watson." "There'syour proposition, Torrance," said Watson, handing it back. "You've got to be a perfect cormorant in your old age. Yet," smiling, he added, "you are unexpectedly, even astonishingly, modest in the valuation put on your self. compared with your young asso elate." Torrance, after a half-glance toward# Dabney and Hannah, turned again to Watson and smiled. "I see; I see," said Watson. [TO BE CONTIVntD ] This Woman Was Thr'fty. Current News reports the significant saying of an old lady who was locally famous for her good lieulth and exceed ing thrift.

A Simple v»t«m O* Dr*lali( PMicn the DMlr«4 Rmqli The accompanying sketch shows th» proper way of making a dry walk *bout one's premises. The darker shading shows where a trench has been dtig, at the bottom of whieh is laid a line of tile. The earth is then shoveled back into the trench, after the joints of the tile have been care folly covered with hay to prevent the loose earth from getting into the joints before it has become firmly packed together, some eighteen inches at the top being- left open. A foot of Cobble or broken stones is then placed upon the earth and well packed down; over this is spread six inches of gravel, Slightly rounded from side to side. The gravel and the rooks beneath cause all water falling upon the sur face to at once disappear, while very TILE-Dn» /ED WALK. soon small channels will be formed, leading down through the earth to the tile grain. Not only will the walk be thoroughly drained in this way, but no small amouut of land upon either side as well. One can thus by a little plan ning arrange his paths so that they may coincide with the lines where under dralns are needed for the benefit of the land. Drains under the middle of the driveway, and under some of the prin cipal walks, may thus be made to serve a donble and most useful purpose. If gravel npon the surface of a path seems too coarse and harsh for the feet, a little clay can be mixed with it, the whole making a very (rood and somewhat porous surface, though to secure the quickest withdrawal of sur face water it is advisable to leave the borders of the walk wholly of gravel. —Orange Judd Farmer. CRUSHED STONE ROADS. They Can It* Uullt l'br«p«r Than the Old Fastilooxd Gravel Roada. Our gravel beds, which a few years ago supplied us with excellent gravel for road purposes, ha-e gradually de generated to cobblestone, says an Illi nois man. Something had to be done, and our commissioners purchased a crusher aud putit to going on this stone. Much to their surprise, as well as that of the rest of us, the machine easily turned out a yard of splendid road ma terial every five minutes. They hired a traction engine at $5 a day to furnish Eower. It furnished power and could ave run another crusher at the same time. The following details may inter est highway commissioners having to contend with too much coarse stone in their gravel beds: We crushed a yard of stone every five minutes, paying $5 a day for power. Six shovelers fed the crusher. The material was elevat«d Into the wagons, therefore but one handling was required. Tho advantages over the old way of road-making in this locality were almost too numerous to mention. We can keep our pit in the best pos sible shape and leave it in that condi tion for the next time. With a little headwork by the commissioner in im mediate control, teams need not wait thirty u fmntsa to lOUA. Under the old way there were too often two to five teams at <3 a day standing still waiting for others to be loaded. There is no time wasted in throwing stone back at the pit or raking them out of the road after being hauled on. Generally they are not raked out at all. A crushed stone road is far superior to the ordinory gravel road and easier kept In repair. A% a matter of fact, we now build a crushed-stone road cheaper than we did a gravel road. The reader can figure from this data: Power per day, 95; a yard crushed every five minutes; slioreiers and haul ers are the same, whether you use crushed rock or gravel, and, of course, need not be counted. Farmers Voice. PEPPERMINT CULTURE. An Important Industry Confined to • l imited Arm. Though the peppermint crop of this country has a very small acreage com pared with many other crops, yet it is of considerable importance in some sections of the country. I*he crop was first Introduced into New 1 York from Massachusetts about 1810, and fifteen years later into Michigan. Wayne county, N. Y., is the largest center ol peppermint growing, but large quanti ties are also raised in southern Michi gan and northern Indiana. The Wayne county product commands a higher price than any other kind of pepper mint oil. The cultivation of peppermint is sim ple, but a great deal of labor is re quired to keep the fields free from weeds. The propagation U bv roots which arc dug and planted in drills as close together as is possible, allowing room for cultivation. Weeds are the groat enemy and must be fought con stantly. There is one in particular which, unknown as yet outside the peppermint fields, is a continual men ace to the purity of the oil product. It is termed rag weed, but it is totally unlike the weed commonly so called. The oil yield varies from ten to thirty pounds an acre. Two-thirds of that produced Is exported. Peppermint growing is a crop that requires skill and experience, and the necessary ap paratus for distilling is expensive, io that it would not pay any individual to go into the business unless on ■ large scale.—N.

A curious clock has been made by a clockmaker of Warsaw named Gold fadon, who has worked on it six years. The clock, according to the Railway News-Reporter, represents a railway station, with waiting rooms for tnfc traveler, telegraph and ticket rooms, ft very pretty, well-lighted platform and a flower garden, in the center of whloo is a sprinkling fountain of clear water. Past the railway station runs the linesL There arc also signal-boxes, signals, lights and reservoirs—in fact, every thing that belongs to a railway station to the smallest detail. In the cupola of the central tower i# a clocK which shows the time of the place; two clocks In the side cupolas show the time at New York and Peking, and on the two outermost towers are a calendar and a barometer. Every quar ter of an hour the station begins to show signs of life. First of all, the tel egraph official begins to work. He dis patches a telegram stating that the line is clear. The doors open and on the platform appear the stationmaster and bis assistant; the clerk is seen at the window of the ticket-office and the pointsmen come out of their boxes and close the barriers. A long line of people form at the ticket office to buy tickets; porters car ry luggage; the bell is rung, and then out of the tunnel comes a train, rush ing into the station and, after the en gine has given a shrill whistle, stops. A workman goes from carriage to car riage and tests the axles with a ham mer. Another pumps water into the boiler of the engine. After the third signal with the bell the engine whistles and the train disappears in the oppo site tunnel; the stationmaster and his assistants leave the platform and the doors of the waiting-room close behind them; the pointsmen return into their boxes and perfect stillness prevails. Karlr Marrtnce* of Royalty. Queen Isabella of Spain, who came to the throne at three years of age, was married on her sixteenth birthday. Queen Victoria of England, who waa crowned at eighteen, was married at twenty. Queen Maria da Gloria do liraganza, born in the same year as Queen Victoria, ascended the throne of Portugal at the ago of seven, ana at fifteen wedded the duke of Leuchten l>erg, one of the Deauharnais family, who left her a widow before she was sixteen, and the year after she inarrlefl Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg Got ha, from which alliance the reign ing house of Portugal proceeds.
