A FREE SEAT.

He was old and poor and stranger
In the great metropolis.
And he bent his ttepe thitherward
10 stately edifice.
Outside he inquiries, "What church is
this?"
"Churcn of Christ" he hears them
say;
"Ah just the place I am looking for
l trust He is here to-day"
He passed through the spacious COL
umned door,
And up the carpeted aisle,
And us he passed on many u face
He saw surprise and smile.
From pew to pew, up one entire side,
Then across the broad front space;
From pew to pew down the other side
He walked with the same slow pace.
Not friendly voice had babe him sit
10 listen to Gospel truth;
Not sign of deferencee had been paid
10 the aged one by youth.
No door was opened by generous hand,
The pews were paid for-rented,
And he was a stranger, old and poor.
Not heart to him relented,
AS he paused moment outside to think
Then passed into the street,
Up to his shoulder he lifted a stone
That lay in the dust at his feet,
And bore it up the broad, grand aisle
In front of the ranks of pews;
Choosing place to see and hear,
He made seat for his use.
Calmly sitting upon the huge stone,
Folding hts hands on his knees,
Slowly reviewing the worshippers.
A great confusion he sees.
Many a cheek is crimsoned with shame,
Some whisper together sore
And wished they had been more cour-
teOus,
To the stranger, old and poor.
AS If by magic some fifty doors
Open instantaneously,
And as many seats and books and hands
Are profered hastily.
Changing his stone for crimsoned pew
And wiping a tear away,
He thinks it was mistake, after all.
And that Christ came late that dav.
The preachers discourse was eloquent,
The organ in finest tone,
But tile most impressive sermon heard
Was preached by an humble stone.
'Pwas lesson of lowliness and worth
That lodged in many heart,
AND the church preserves that sacred
stone,
That the truth may not depart.

BLAkE'5 WIDOW

Jem Blake had been shot dead in
his own doorway by Antonio Guel.
do, and the trial was to come of d.
rectly.
The extraordinary interest in the
affair was less due to the murder and
its peculiar circumstances, than to
tue fact that this was the first case
tried in San Saba in any more formal
court Than the time honored institu.
ton of Judge Lynch. Jem had been
a quiet man and a good neighbor,
with a hand always ready to help
any one who was out of luck, so
public sentiment ran pretty high
against Antonio. If the general.in-
clination had been followsd-as, up
to that time it always had--the last
named gentleman would have found
very scant opportunity to make any
remarks in his own behalf.
However, things were advancing
at San Saba as we'll as elsewhere
and it wouldn't do to hang Antonio
without a regular trial, no matter
how agreeable such a proceeding
might be to the people at large.
So ran the opinion expressed by
Jithlado whose ideas on such sub.
jects were usually accepted without
comment.
Nevertheless, there was more than
one disseuter in the present instance
to whom it was by no means clear
that there could be any sense or pro
1T in thus beating about the bush.
eft Antonio's going to be hung,
why in - don't we hang him?'
Tsis was the pertinent query of
Jake Smith, the leader of the oppo-
sing faction, and his view Of the
question put it in so clear light
that the judge had great difficulty in
impressing people with his convic
tioa. He said that things had gone
on in an irregular way long enough,
and here was a chance to start the
law in properly, and give it fair
show. Besides, it didn't make any
kind Of difference; Antonio had shot
Jim, hadn't he? Well, then what
was the use of talking? All the jury
would have to do now was to return
their verdict of guilty IN the first de.
gree, and there you were all com
Portable.
It'was just the same thing in the
end exactly.
II tell YER" said the judge, who
felt the weight of bis title, albeit the
same was altogether, one of courte

The Jury filed out, and the expec.

tobacco and whispered comments.
Jake Smith fdgeted about on his
hox, and cast anxious glances thro'
the open doorrtowards the clump of
nopals where the Jury were deliber-
ting.
Antonio talked and laughed in an
nndertone with his counsel, and
Biake's widow sat staring at them
with compressed lips, and strong
expression Of determination coming
into her face.
1t wasn't long before the Jury
filed in again, all seating themselves
but the spokesman, and Judge Pit

wsrn't thar, he couldn't done it, an
eft he didn't do it, why-then-es

Pitblado didn't dare to look at
anybody; he stared up at the rafters
down at che table-nowhere in
ea gJr
particular; and then turned halfway
towards Antonio. g s3
''You kin co." said he, speaking
with great deliberation, ..but I
wouldn't stay round here too long"
! There was dead pause for min.
ute and, nobody moved. Jake Smith
exploded . single expressive word

Antonio Gueldo rose with an in
solent grin, and picked up his hat.
The baby crowed, for it saw the
glittering thing again.
There was a sharp report--Anto-
MO pitched forward in heap upon
the floor, and Blake's widow. stood
with the pistol presselto her breast.
A line of thin blue smoke curled
up fromHthe muzzle Of the weapon,
and FORMED halo around tbelcbild's
aaxen head. The glittering thing
was quite near the little hands now.
and they took 1t from the yielding
grasp Of the mother.
Blake's widow looked steadily at
the figure on the foor-it was quite
motienless-then she turned and
went through the wide passage
opened for her by the silent crowd,
holding the baby very tenderly, and
the baby carrying the pistol.
The clild laughed with delight; it
had got its shining plaything at last.
