'lie can't draw himself up, for see
it's breaking away now.'
"No, it holds yet. Can't some
thing be done for him ?'
While they gazed opward, dazed
with horror and feoliog tbe utter
helplessness of any effort to reach
bim in limo, a second lineman ap
peared on the roof, pobI there, it
would seem, to assist the othor. It
only required an iustaot to take in
the sitaation theeraokiug, swaying
eave trough, tbe desperately grip
ping bands, the gbristly, sot faoo of
tbe doomed man, who swnug over
that deadly abyss.

from the fit root below.
Only tbo moaoirg of tbo cry
reached tbe man on tho roof, so lond
and strong was tbe wind which blew
there, but be answered as if bo had

Hang on till I get a turn of tbe wire

But in tho same breath with tbe
warning there was convulnive cf
fort on the part of tbo suspended
man, the parting eave trough slipped
from bis rigid fingers, be was top
pling backward, falling i ao space ;
tbe earth, the sky, the face of tbo
man above him all blending in one
cbaotio piotnre before bis despairing
sight, yet he did not fall ; tbe arm
of Joha Herman, who had slipped
like a flash over the edgo, was about
bin holding bica np, while be ad
jured t
Get a b Id, for God's eako I If
yoa vally your life and mine keep
your wit about yoa, Steve Brady.
Now. then, climb no tbe rope. It'll
bear tbe strain, 1 think, and yoa can
get on the roof from my sboalJers.
Steady i so.'
There was a moment of suspense.
The strands of the straining rope
ware catting oa tbe edge of the
slates, bat the wire which John bad
plied to it higher op divided the
weight and enabled first the one,
thea the other to climb to tbe roof.
They stood there panting with ex
ertion, looking into each other's
yes. Then
1 own'my life to yoa,' said Brady
'bat I wish I didn't 1 wish I'd
dropped down into tbe stroet afore
I owed it to yoa.'
Thd cause of tbe enmity between
ibsm f The usual cause only a
girl. Not even a pretty girl as tbe
world saw bsr, bat the one on whom
aeh of these men bad set bia heart.
Thsre was something of tbe ocqaette
1n her, or else she bad not yet learn
ed her own mind, for she bad given
Cjoooaragemeot to each, or bo
thought so, which amounted to the
same.
The biltsrness of feeling that, out
of common grstitndo, e ought to
aland ont of bit rival' way, was
working in Steve Brady, bnt, with
tbe words on bis lips, be began to
waver and sank down nnconsoioas.
Wbeu be came to himself be was
in A strange place, bat it was el ill
John Harmon who was with him and
who bad this to say:
'Now, look here, Steve Brady,
don't yoa go to fuisin' or worritio'l
You'.e bften took wilb a spell, and
lasted a blood tospcI ionardly,
through etrainin,' bnt yoa don't
want doo'.oiin so much as quiet an1
peace of mind.
That') why I brung yon hero. This
is my room and it's in ray mother's
houso, and I want to say to yon that
T'll be rqnare an' even with you. I
won't take a step toward snein' Dolly
till you're on your foet agaia. I
woa't try to get nboad with bur
through your mitfortin', and I don't
want yoa to feol beholden to mo for
anything- You'd a done as well by
me if I'd been in your fix.'
Tbo evil spirit in Stevo was quell
ed by this generous treatmont.
'You're a better man tbon I am,
John Harmon,' bo cried out. 'You're
more deservin' of her, too-'
I don't know,' answorod John,
'I'm alow an' yon'ro quick, that
about tbo difirenoe. It just deponds
on which eho takes to most, that's
all there is of it '
Another spirit moved the injured
man boforo be was conceded by John
Harmon to bo fairly on bis feet
again.
Tbe latter cam liorne late from bia
work one evening.
How's Brady' ho nked of bis
mother as bo sat down to thesuppor
which eho bad kopt for bim. , Wants
to got ont eh? He'll bo thorn soon
now, but I reckou I'll have to give
bim tbo slip to-ui;ht. Sbo'd be dis
appointed if I didu't como 'round.'
'Yes,' from tbe mother, 'Uot sceujH

when those words arrested bim,
turned aud went np ogaiu with his
blood on G'o. So, this was the kind
of faith with bim! This was the man
who was more worthy of Dolly than
be w bh.
He could hoar John splashing the
water at the kilchuu sink as bo mado
ready to go out, but Harmon bad no
idea that a dark C,;nre on tbo other
sido of tbo way, when be dually
reached tho fclruot. was that of bis
rivel. Hu did not notice bow it
crept after bim, keeping him in
night; and if tbero bad been any
doubt at all in Brady's mind it was
soon ouded, for tbey were taking the
direct route to Dolly's home.
It was a lonoly way, down side
stroet s and alleys, and presently
Stove saw a second dark farm, on
Harmon's sido of tbe way now,
creeping stealthily nftor him. lie
remembered then tbpt this had beer,
pay day aud that Jubn most piobo.

et; bnt bis first impulse to cry ont
and warn tho other died down

bo assaulted and robbod? Was not
the latter stealing a march on bim,
carrying roses to Dolly and iogratia
ting himself when be bad promisod
to keep away. Ho bad a momentary
glimpse of an OBlifted arm carrying
somolbing which looked liko a short
club. He knew instautly what it
was. He remembered aa item
which be bad read the wook before
of an unknown man who bad been
sandbagged on the street and killod
outright by a single blow, He bad
not set this ontlaw apon tbo track
of John Harmon; be bad nothing to
do but to bold bis peace aud it might
be bis rival would be removed from
bis path forever.
It was a wicked thought, a horri
ble thought-
'You hain't got to do nothing,
Steve Brady; OBly just keep qniet,'
whispered the tempter.
Bat another inward voice, doer,
stiller, made itself beard;
Wber'd yon be dow if he'd done
nothing wbeu yoa bong down from
that rotten eave trongb Did be
keep quiet an' let yoa drop out of
bis way, or did be venture bis life to

Brady. Are yo ready to do ranr 1
for any girl leastwise for a girl thu:
don't know her cvn tniud wsll
enough to choose between the two of
you?"
All this before the murderous blow
fell. It takes time to Ull these
tbongbts of bis, but tboy all flashed
through bis mind in the space of a
brer.th. As it foil a wild, ear splitting
yell startled tbo assailant and assail
ed alike, John Harmon whevled in
his tracks, and tho blow, grazing bis
check, bsd foroo to knock bim down
Ho wan up njain on tho instant np

Not long ngo Matk Twain was
traveling iu tho couutry, and stop
ped ono evening at a bouse presid
ed over by au elderly woman. He
was shown to a room somewhat
bare of ornanunt aud furniture and
yet slept peacefully until morning.
When morning oamo aud be arose,
ho became mindful of the fact that
altbongb he bad provided himself
with a tooth biusb, be bad forgotten
bis tooth powder, to bad oonsoled
himself with tbo idea that there
mnst bo tooth powder lying about
6omo-wbcre. After a brief search
be discovered fomelbing in a small
box on the mantlo which certainly
resembled tooth powder. At any
rate, he nsod it vigorously on bis
teeth, aud found it satisfactory.
When ho got down stuirs; he apolo
gized to bis hostess for using ber
tooth powder. SLe appoared sur

It was oa tbe mantel," Hark re

'leo, in a email box ; it was ex

Good gtacious I' she ejaculated,
that wasn't tooth powder.'
'What was it V asked Slaik, now

117 FIRST HOTTER.
It was my first murder. Don't be
startled readers, I odI mean that
it wns ray first case of that kind
Jed Sinkey was tbe acoaaed party,
and bis alleged victim a Yankee
pedlar. 1
Jed was loo poor to imploy conn
sol, so tbe Court confijoatod tuy
service iu bis behalf. In othor words
I was asbignod tbe honorable duty
of conducting bia caso gratis.
Tbe caso was a toOb one. In
brief it was this :
On a certain evening a Yankee
pedlar found himself at Jod's door,
and applied for a night's lodging.
Jed gave bim a hearty weloomo.
lie would baro done so at any time,
but on ibis occasion tbio greeting
was tbe mote cordial because be was
aloue, bis wife having gone to at
tend k sick neighbor, and Jed was a
man fond of company. He aod bis
guest and a neighbor who bad drop
pod in spent a jolly eveniug and
when tbo last-mentioned bad none,
Jed at least that was bin story
and tbo pedlar bade each other good
night and good-by, tbe latter ini
tending to mako at early start tbo
next morning.
Tbe son was some hoars bigb
wbon Jed was aroused, after eome
effott by a crowd of excited neigh
bors gathered about bis bed.
'Tbo podlar I Tho pedlar I' wero
tbe words in everybody's mouth.
A plagne on the pedlar,' growled
Jed, rubbing bis eyes, 'he left afore
daylight, leastways he said he would
au' 1 fc'poHO be kep' bis word, tho' 1
waru't fool enough to lay awako and
see.'
But bis boos is in your stable f

ment. . ' 'X a"

'You don't say so f cried Jed,
starting up ; I wonder ef that 'tar

'He won't never come back not
in this world,' gravely repeated a
gray-bnired earnest man, He's
dead ! Murdered T Ho's dead, all
split to pieces, an' its only right to
say that there's Htrong suspicion out
that you done it !'
Tbe light of that morning bad, io
truth, revealed a horrible deed of
of crime. Tbo pedlar's lifeless body
covered with sickeuing wounds, br.d
beeu discoverekiu a tavine not far
from Jed's cabin. A bloody batch
et lying near was idoulided as Jod's
property, while in bis stable was
found tbe horse tbo pedlar bad rid
den. Jed was more profuse than oohcr
ent in bis explanation. He protest'
ed that after retiring for tbe night,
ho bud ueither soen nor spoken to
the pedlar ; that tbe latter must
have left tbe houso before daylight;
and the story of the swap Jed cluck
to with dogged pertinacity, in tho
face of Jem Burkitl's flatoonlradio
tion; Black as Jed's case looked at first,
it was not long till it looked black-
i in
er. a searcn oi tuo premises was
instituted; and trader a pile of straw
in tho stable was found tbe dead
peddler's pack. Tbe inardered man
was known to have a considerable
um of money, none of whioh was
found either on tbe body or in Jed's
possession, a circumstance which
weighed but little ia tbe lutter's
favor, however, for money is a thing
easily oonoealed.
Everybody believed Jed guilty
eveiybody bat his poor wife, who
reached home ia time to see her bus
band led off to jail. She clung to
him to the last moment, sobbing
oat, 'lodeod, indeed, be never did it!'
Tbe day of the trial was at band,
I was sitting in my offioe, at a late
hour, giviug tbe Southing touches to
a speech I was preparing, more I
must confess, for my own sake than
the prisoner's when the door op
ened aod tbe prisoner's wife advanc
ed and stood before me. (lor face
was wan and haggard bot a gUa.n
of eager joy shone from ber eyes.
'1 have walked 20 miles U see
you to-night,' she said, 'I have at
last tbe proofs of my husband's in-noexnee.'
8he spoke io nu Atenrod tone ;
and when I board hor Strang story
through my couvictiun of ils truth
amounted to certaiuty. i
Have yoa any evidonoe of tbe
facts you have related other than
yonr owa word ?' I ask id.
'No' sho ansterod in a ? ico
tremulous an 1 anxious ; 'is uot that
suflkicnt.'
'A wife cannot bo a witness for
her husband,' I answered leloclitut-
Tbe etrenglh that bad borne her
np gavo way, and reeling backward,
she fell swooning to tbe floor.
I rained ber gently nnd placed tier
in a chair, And wbon she had suffi
ciently recovered to nndet stand rcy
words, did my best to seotbo aud
calm her striving to make hr un
derstand that, thongh ber lips were
sealod as a witness, now Ibat the
bad placed tbe claw of truth in my
baud, I might bo able to dnd for
her bnhband a way out of (be poril
with which lying cireams'auces bad
eurrouodod bim. Above all thing I
cautioned ber to keep bor secret, and
by no RieRRs, unless I sent for bor,
to be present at the trial.
On the moruing tho case came on
Jed- looked despondent, but on tbe
whole, bore op with com ? go. Tbe
prosecution proved substantially the
facts as above narrated by a number
of wituesues, all of whom I suffered
to go without examination, till it
came to Jem Burkitl's turn.
Jen as tbo strongest witness was
reserved to tho last. Ia addition to
what the others bad told be know of
tho fact of tbe puddlar's prtnenoo nt
tbe prisoner's house on tbe fatal
night where bo bad left Ibcm togeth
er at a late born, and, besides bo
was able to expose tbe falsehood of
Jed's story of tbo horee swap.

He eyed roo suspiciously, and v.itL
nervous fingers began to nudo tbe

wbon be bad temoved it, and a silver-
oasod banter's watch fell from bis

bis fuoo turning ghastly white.
'Lot me rofrenh yonr memory" 1

The Late wretch sauk upou his
kneos in adject terror.
'Have mercy I' bo exclaimed, turn
iug appealingly from ono wondoi ing
face to another, 'have mercy and 1
will confess all ;' and be did so, re
lating tbo story of bis waylaying aud
murdering tho poddlar in the dark
ness of the early morning, and the
steps Lo bad afterward taken to east
suspicion on the prisoner.
Tie words 'Not guilty' bad just
fallou from tbe lips of the foreman,
wbon a cry of joy rang tbroagh tbe
oourt room, and Jed's wife foil
weeping on ber husband's bosom.
Conviuood from tbo first of bis in
uocence, she bad felt almost an
equal cooviotion of Jem Burkitl's
guilt, and by sleatbily hanging on
the latler's stops she was at last
able to unveil the terrible seorot aod
