For moment he stared at the
dice as though he could not believe

and stepped back pale and detected.
"Come, Tommy, throw again,

Its no use, master; L couldn't

"True. truei But you have your

Again the boy returned to the ia
bic and took up the box. He pressed
his lips together and did his best to
control his trembling limbs. Not a
sound was to be heard in the saloon
but the rattling OF the dice. For a
moment every man seemed to hold
his breath.
He threw.

said the planter, putting down the
number, while a murmur OF saisfac-
ton ran through the crowd.
One Of the bystanders gathered up
the box, and the boy threw again.
1.-TWO skies and a flve-seventeen.
The excitement now knew no bounds,
and the @bravos" resounded on every
hand. The boy, as he took up the
box to throw for the third and last
time, was as nearly colorless as it
was possible for him to be with his
yellow skin.
Out rolled the dice, and up came
three skies, which made fifty-onel

Gentry of the valley the earth had
been heaped like grave. At its head
was board-at its it foot a wild
rose. On the board Elder Graves
had cut out with his knife:
JACOB BULLET,
Aged 90.
Men may not have given him
chance,
BUT Con WILL.
You wouldn't think those rough
men had sentiment in their hearts,
but they saw through the Elders
motives in an instant, and the rough
est of the lot stopped down and care
fully re- arranged one Of the sods.
Three weeks more passed by, and
one evening Jack Bullet came
into Joe Whites Dream alive and
well. He stood on the square in
the centre OF the town, and he said
not word till the wondering men
had gathered about him. Then he
pointed to the grave in the valley,
his eyes full OF tears, and he choking
ly said: Boys, 1 sneaked back
here this mornin' to kill some one in
revenge, but cum across that-that
grave downtown thar, and"
He held out his hand 10 the men.
and the tears blinded him so that he
could not see a face. Elder Graves
went ON his knees again, every man
with him, and there was more tears,
and prayer so beautiful and tender
that Bullet sobbed like a child. His
heart was broken, and all the Satan
In his nature was driven out in a
moment.
Joe Whites Dream was mining
camp for many months after that,
and Jack Bullet was one of the best
men in il. The headboard grew grey
as the rain beat down and the sun
shone, and the wild rose grew till it
covered all the grave. but no one dis
turbed the sod. The grave was a
sigma beacon light, as it were-and
perhaps miners were right when they
said OF our town:
They've had revival up there,
and they are the best chaps and the
hardest workers on the slope.
