linnblo ouiuihin iu its unliiro which
;:!UHcd tlm listener to thrill with rx
tiltntloii nud grow c ild and dread.
It eeeiued im tnouh a spirit nioro than
mortal had tnken poiMi.xsiuii of tho lit

voice was breathing out a prophecy np
iH'oachtn'g dinaKlor. Jxtyton fult a nud
len breeze against Ids cheek, and no
ticed, with a.nrm, that a dark utortu
rloud had arisen in tho west. Tlmro
had been una Mono, bince his i.rrival
from tho ciihI, nud he dreaded to see
nnother. A heavy Hih at bis elbow
vaubod both men to turn In that direc
tion. Lamu Joe. had comoup noise
lessly behind them nud stood leaning
ajiainnt a rock, lie, loo, waft listening,
nud wiping an occasional tear from his
eye.
llut cren as they listened tho charac
ter of the melody slowly underwent a
comploto transformation, nud from tho
depths of not row and despair It burst
forth In aglad, exultant strain a wild,
Ireo flood of music. It was like the tri
umphant song of some capiivu bird
that has beaten long Its weary wings
gainst tho iron ban of a cruel prison
Louso, but, linding itsolf at iitierty
again, breaks forth into noug. That
was the end. Lcyton and M irk Sp n
er pned on. Tho littlo girl's present
mood sooined to them too stirred fur in
tru.Hinn; but Inme Joo stopped for tho
good-night kiss which tlm child was
ccu8tomud to bestow upon him. Poor
old Joo! Ho was very lunio. Ouo leg
had bo.a loft upon tho Latllo-lield of
J-roderk'kgburg, and Its substituto was
n rudo wooden slump, but, such as it
was, he would gladly have worn it to
splinters at Mta Cohen1 servlco, had
the child permitted it. In spito of his
n Miction Joe M.lton was a genial old
tuan, with a kind word and helping
hand for everybody; yet half the miner
in that littlo camp could have told of a
time when there wa not a nioro Intern
Iterate man or harder character than
lio. That was beforo tho death of his
wife, tiding of which had been a terrl
tie blow.
Llta was comforter then. It was she
who took hiro in hand, and petted and

Joo was in a great mutiHuro due to this
fact. When John Cohen was killed by
tho falling of a bowlder, Mto, littlo

adopted child of the camp Later,
whua an aecldcnt shutout forever the

I" strong contrast with the gray and
I Ued old woni:tn who was Iter otlcnd
wt, or . Iho Lronxed, wcathnr-lonlen
uou about her, was tldi child of seven
, year. Like a rare swoet blossom ho
as growing up in that wild place with
imio of bouuiy aod purity about her
young life, that commanded almost
Km! S rough, y0t kind.
Naturo was kindly too. Tho sun
never kissed the soff little cheeks too
roughly, and its roost scorching ray
only added a brighter tint to tho long,
fair hair, wh'ch hung In waves below
her waist, the pride and admiration of
her friends.
Yol it was hard, even for a stranger,
to look ttnmovod upon lli.i pr-nt bhio
eyes, so pathetic Iu their blindness, and
know that Lila Cohen could never sco
again.
I think L'la herself mtndod It most
after Warren, tliu poet of tho camn,
had been tolling her of tho rug?e
grandeur of tno coun'.ry about them,
and described tho singular beauty of
the flowers which ho brought her day
after day, or when one of her big, bur
ly frlcutls laid iu her hand thu picture
of his children llio children whom she
hnd learned to love ns brothers and sis
ters, bhe had known about them all a
long time, ever since alio could remem
ber, mi 1 Ihev often sent her friendly
messages and Hit o presents which she
Ued to sit holding in her hands, a
strange wilfulness in tho big bluo
eyes, a great nchn in tho little tender
heart, at the thought that sho must al
Wavs feel, but never see. The littlo
girl cared A great deal about all her
friends; but lanio Joo was her prime
favorite, pel Imps because he was lame.
He had grown lamer than over of lain,
and wus failing very fusl, yet nobody
could bear to break the news to her.
blie ttsod to sit at hi side by tho hour
listening to mm or repeating the child
ish stones which Warren had read to
her. One day while (die was silling
thus, patting his wrinkled cheek with
her soft hands, she slopped suddenly,
with a puzzled look In her face, ns
thou!rh a new thought had struck her.
"Tho men say that the mines of this
district don't pay well enough, and
they will shortly Lr'euk up nnd go into
another country. What will you and I
do then, Undo' Joe?"
A tear trickled down tho old man's
wan cheek. Hit, too, was thinking of
a Journey into another country, and It
wrenched his heart-strinrs to tit uk of
leaving I-.it iv behind, but lie wiped away
Iho bright drops with tho rngge'd
sleeve ot his coat, and choking down
the sob in his l h rout, mado answer:
"You will go with them, Lita, my
child.-'
"And you, too, Unelo Joo. What
would you do hero without me?" who
asked laughingly, ns Miu clung lighter
lo his hand.
"Noi much, to bo sure, littlo one
not much." lie stroked her long Mlk
en hair tenderly, wishing that ho mi jlil
bu able to tell her what no ono elso
wanted to; but he had not the courage,
and presently the little "irl said:
"It is geltfug chilly, Undo Joe; let's
go in."
liut the old man went away, nnd did
not seo her again till evening. Ho
bade her "good-night," nnd slowly fol
lowed tho retreating forms of tho two
gentlemen, Leyinn and hpencer, won
dering why hhe looked so pnle to-night
and clung ho tighty around his neck at
pari ng. Ho felt a strange chill pass
over him whenever ho thought of tho
music, but by and by ho fell asleep and
forgot it all.
Tho threatened storm rnnie; such a
tcmpost as had not swept tho valley

But tho sun shouo out brightly the next
morning, and thoro was one," at least,
who hailed it advent with a cln'h of re
lief; and t li nt was Joo Milton, (.rush
ed, bruised aud sorely wounded, he
dragged himself from a heap of debris
and lookod about him. No ono was
stirring. Nearly all tho others had
chosen safer places than ho aud wero
sleeping soundly, now that tho wild
strife which h id taken place so lately
between the elements hud ceased.
How was it with little Lita? With au
effort poor Joo sat up and looked.
Where had stood a dwelling place
last night was only a heap of ruius
now. "Lita! Lita!" called tho old man
pilcously; but there enmu no answer.
On hi bunds with nil his remaining
strength mustered iu tho effort, ho
crept to the spot. No child was there.
Slowly, every brent h a pain almost un
endurable, ho drew himself to tlio lop

A stirring picture of horso life worth
looking at can be seen on nnv clear
afternoon by standing In Central Park
near tho obelisk, and watching four-in-hands,
carriage teams, tandems, cobs.

with crossed teams of blacks and

tho polished trappings and enameled
conches of varied colors, the show
is the most brilliant to be seen out
of doors. With the growing display
rivalry in coaching teams has become
a passion with many of our wealthy
citi,"iis. At a consequence, Iho de

lino coach horses.
Mr. George W. Bishop, a well-known
dealer in native stock, and who crosses

penn horses, said during a recent chat
about American coachcr:
"There Is a remarkable call for lino
conch-horses. Wo can't

"Tho old Morgan cross, Knox, Ply

It 1 said that tho salmon fisheries

year, when they yielded to Hillingsgato

contribution was only llll'.i.OilO pounds
'and Ireland's only .'ItM.iioO pounds. It
I lo lie noted on behalf of Ireland,
however, that her Miluioii lind a chief

jthoiigh the Indians did not know how
I to swear when the white man crime,
I they soon learned to sw ear, and had
isutlicieut words in their laiiiruago for

use the Indian word O.sh (my Father)
for Creator etc., and the eariy mission
aries, when nddrcsdiig the Indian, used
Gosh (your Father). Tuo Indian soon
saw that that was thu necessary word
for profanity, and adopted iu (Josh i
iu uso lo some extent now, and perhaps
somo pious peoplo who say 'guh' aro
not aware that It is downright swear
ing in tho Indian language.
