THE MAIDEN.

!, Once upon a midnight CHEEKY,
While l courted my sweet deary,
Upon an old and crazy rocking chair
Relic of forgotten lore
While we chatted, chair grunting,
Suddenly there came humping,
AS Of some one wildly stamping,
Stamping now upon the floor.
'"Tis some crazy fool, l muttered,
"Thumping pom the chamber floor
Only this and nothing more"
The old skinfint roasted in the room above
Us, and knowing that | was making love to
his ''rare and radiant maiden" took this deli
cate way of suggesting that | had better
make myself scarce"
2. All distinctly | remember,
The old "cuss" had lost his temper,
And at every little noise we made
Fetched his foot upon the floor.
Eagerly | wished him slumber,
He'd no longer US encumber,-
And another kiss I'd plumber,
Then her pardon I'd implore
Here clasped the radiant maiden,
Spite the noise upon the floor
Merely this and nothing more.
Feeling as though a storm was brewing
overhead, | determined to conclude the per
tormances and prevent, what sorely dreaded

always pecuniarily embarrassed
and always ready to take drink
when an opportunity offered. Ever
since sentence was pronounced on
Harold Vincent; and it became
plain that 1T would soon be his
painful duty to place the moose
about an old friends neck and
spring the gaIlows trap, he. had been
very much depressed, and had kept
his room almost continually.
Thither Charley went, and was ad-
mitted by the unhappy official him
self.
"Good afternoon, Sheriff." said
Lawrence: 'you don't seem to be
yourself Of late. What's the mat
ter? Approaching duties trouble you,
hey?
"Well, to tell the TRUTH" said
the official, 81 do dread what's com

Well" replied Charley, cit
won't help you any to sit around in

to taking a walk around to Pende-
grast's and trying some Of his fresh
lager"
"Well, | don't mind" said the
Sheriff: taking his hat; 81 believe a
glass or two of lager would do me
good"
The two were soon on the street
and pointed for Pendegrast's.
Arriving there, Charley was graft
fed at finding the place quite de-
serted. Seating themselves at the
remotest table they leisurely en-
joyed a couple Of glasses of lager,
which improved the Sheriff's spirits
wonderfully.

Brave Charley! No friend had
ever worked harder for the salvation
of another than had he for Harold
Vincent. Ever since the fatal day
Harold had been arrested on a
charge Of numbering George Pol
lock, he had been near him uttering
words of comfort or earnestly work
ing for his acquittal. And now that
the sentence of death had been pro
nounced, and the dread day of exc
cution appointed, be had not yet
lost hope, and had set on foot a
great scheme through which his
friend might escape his ignominious
fate. 1t was an almost forlorn hope,
but when Charley Lawrence and
Jack Hobby put their heads together
they were power at any time, but
since a friends life was at stake
they would undoubtedly work Won
ders.
Harold Vincent was deemed
guilty by the law of the murder of
George Pollock. The evidence
was purely circumstantlal. TIE
murdered man and the condemned
man had been rivals in love. Pol
lock was found dead in a suburban
grove with three knife wounds in
his breast. At bis side was found
a button which corresponded with
those on a coat of HarOld's. There
was button missing from Harold's
coat! The prisoner had been seen
in the vicinity Of the murder on the
evening it must have occurred
That was all there was of it. The
prisoner when charged with the
crime, had scorniully denied the
charge, and all during his trial had
conducted himself in a manner that
left very favorable impression on
the mind Of the spectators. He had
never for once betrayed the slight
est evidence of guilt, and while the
awful sentence was being pro-
nounced upon him kept his blue eye
on the Judges, and at it's conclu-
sion bowed gracefully, and was led
away. He saw he was at the mercy
Of a train of fatal circumstances,
and knew that nothing would save
him but executive clemency, When
that was denied him he exclaimed,
God help my poor mother, Nellie
and darling Mary !" and commenced
preparations for the last scene.
When Charley left the presence
of Nellie, after the interview nara
ted IN the beginning of the chapter,
he sought his friend Jack Hobby.

gether they repaired to his room.

"Good I. No time must be wasted.
If you will attend to the matter of
