terview will never be known. When
John Brsbcn emerged from the jail he
went straightto the magistrate who had
issued the warrant for the apprehension
of Joseph Brisben.
Esquire" he said, in his slow, hes
itating way. "You have made mis-
take"
I'm what way, Mr.. BrisbenPn asked
the magistrate, who had high regard
for his visitor
you have caused the arrest Of an in
nocent man."
"But" began the magistrate.
tissue an order for my brothers in
slant release. He is innocent of the in
tent to do wrong. | am the guilty man.
/ forged the name of Charles Ellison to
the check which he uttered. He did
not know that it was forgery"
"You!n cried the astounded mags-
tratc. You u forger-impossiblep"
Nothing ismpossible in these days"
said the whitc-haired old man sternly
II alone am guilty. My brother is in
nocent
SO stoutly did he aver that he was the
forger that the magistrate reluctantly
issued a warrant for his arrest, and at
the same time wrote an order TO the jail
er for the release of Joseph Brisben.
"My constable will be in soon, y said
the magistrate, but the old hero picked
up both the papers.
II will not trouble him." he said; II
will execute both papers.
And ne did. Handing the jailer both
papers, he explained their meaning thus:
"They have made a mistake. 1t is L
who am to be yourprisoner. My brother
is innocent"
Accordingly Joseph Brisben was re-
leased and returned to the farm. John
remained at the Jail prisoner. When
the extraordinary affair became known,
several prominent citizens offered to 90
on the accused mans bond, but he
would not accept their kind offices. At
the trial he plead guilty and was sem
fenced to fifteen years Imprisonment at
hard labor in the penitentiary. Joseph
came to see him before he was removed
to Frankfort, but their interview was a
private one.
Joseph Brisben remained at the farm,
but he was a changed man. From the
day of his release from jail down to the
time of his death, he was never known
to touch a card, and drop of liquor
never passed his lips. Last April he
died, and his confession duly sworn to
before a justice of the peace, was made
public after his burial. In substance it
was this; That he was guilty of the for
gerry for which his heroic brother was
suffering long imprisonment.
ut was my brother swish, not mine, ="
reads the document He insisted that
he who had no ties of bloodor marriage
could better suffer the punishment and
the disgrace than who had dependent
upon me a'large family"
Noble John Brisben OF such stuff
are heroes made. Geo. w. SymondS.

To gain new strength, and added zest

When flowers stop their blooming, birds then

And all things rest hut time and wrong,
The broezcs fall away into sigh
It's time to lunch on milk and pie.
IT'S night, the breathing time Of day;
The race is run, the sandals lain away,
The workshops closed, the days turmoil is past
And quiet like blessing comes at last.
The sun is gone, the stars their vigils keep,
And bird ana flower In darkness are asleep.
