SITTING Up WITH WER.

Will anyone who has ever spanked
ever forget those delicious hours? Will
bis hesrt ever grow SO cold and hard
that it will not melt little, as he
remembers how he once held a little
white hand, toyed with her curls, and
heard her whisper: 'Stay little longer,
1t lacks whole hour of daylight She
was expecting him Sunday night: the
parlOr curtains were down; the old folks
notified that 1t was healthy to 60 to bed
at O'Clock, and Johnny bribed With a
cent to permit himself to be tucked away
az shutdown. He sneaked up the path,
one eye on the "old man." who didn't
like hum any too well, gave faint
knock at the door, and it was opened
and he was escorted to the parlor. He
said he couldn't stay minute, though
he didn't mean to 90 home
until three o'clock. She wanted
to know how his mother was il his
father had returned to New York; il
his brother Bills boil was any better,
and he went over and sat on the sofa,
50 az not to strain his voice. Then the
conversation tagged, and he played
with his hat and she nibbled with the
sofa tidy. He finally said il was beau
tiful evening and she replied that her
grandfather predicted snow storm.
He said he guessed 1t wouldn't snow, as
the moon wasn't crooked enough to
hang powder horn on it, and abe said
she didn't believe il would either, This
mutual understanding seemed to give
each other courage, and she wanted to
know II be had seen Bill Jones lately.
She hadn't, she said, and she didn't
want to. Then went to talking
about the donation visit to be given
Elder Berry. He carelessly dropped his
hand on bers-his right hand, while his
left arm 3neaked along the sofa to get
behind her shoulders. She pretended
not to notice it, and he looked down at
his boots, and wanted to know II she
thought mutton tallow rotted ont boots
faster than lard or lampblack. She
couldn't say, but had an idea that il did.
He had Just commenced to lock fingers
with her when she discovered that some
thing allied the lamp. She arose and
turned the lamp down q half, making
the room look dim. II took him Eve
minutes to get hold of her hand again,
and she pretended to want to draw
her hand away all the time. After a
long pause he lowered his voice 70 a
whisper, and said he didn't see what
made folks love each other. She hupoed
up TO him and admitted her Ignorance,
He said he could name q dozen young
men who were going to get married
right away, and his right arm fell upon
her and gave her hug. Then he went
over to look out of the window, to make
sure that IL was Or was not going to
snow, and coming back he turned the
light down little more, and then sat
down and wanted 70 know IL she didn't
want TO rest her head on his shoulder.

CAPTURE o. me EscAPED CoN-
v1CTS.

SALEx, Or, July 3.-Sherif Purdou
OF Douglas county arrived here this af.
ternoon. having In charge Bradshaw
and Glenn, the escaped convicts, CAP.
tured by him on Saturday morning last,
near oakland The particulars Of the
capture are as follows: On Wednes-
day evening last he received a letter
from an ex-couvict, signed "a Friend. .
who reported to him the presence of the
conyicts In Douglas county On
receipt of the news he immediately
started In search, in company With
A. j. Barlow and Joseph Kennedy.
They took the train to Drains station,
where they procured q hack and pro-
ceeded to Rice's hill, where they got on
the track and discovered that the con-
vlcts had taken the road leading to old
oakland. Leaving the hack at Grecian
Bend they tracked them to a ravine a
rhort distance from town, in which
grew thicket of oak gruhs. Here they
lost track OF them, but met Tom Bailey,
who said he had seen the smoke of q
camp IRE in the ravine, and be would 90
ever and see what it was, under the pre-
tense OF looking for a COW, and accord
inRly did 30. 1t proved to be Glenn and
bradshaw, the men they wanted. Bar
low, kennedy and Bailey watched them
all night, while Sheriff Purdom pro-
ceeded to Oakland, a mile or more
away, and gathered up a posse of five
men, whose names are as follows: j. II.
Maloney, j. H. Howard, Peter McCra2-
gar, j. 8. Beck, and E. p. Beck, to as.
SYST him In capturing the convicts.
They then proceeded to the scene of
action, and surrounded the convicts,
the sheriff and part of the posse going
up on the bill back of the camp, some
OF them being stationed along the road.
They then got as close TO the camp
as possible without giving an alarm and
concealed themselves behind some
brush, where they could plainly see
them. The convicts were in the act of
washing their faces and hands. How
ard went to the camp and told the con-
victs, who inquired OF him, that be was
out hunting. Just here the Sheriff and
posse rushed down on them, tellin,
them TO throw up their hands, which
they did. seeing they had been caught
IN trap.
They did not seem inclined to talk
much, and seemed in great fear of being
brought to Salem. After escaping from
PRISM they all went up near Mehama.
here they overheard conversation of
party in search of them. They divided.
part of them going north and a part
OF them going south. As to Dssbrow's
whereabouts they would not say, bat
said he was we'll armed and would be a
hard man to take.
The Sheriff and assistants deserve
