A SECRET.

I told my secret to the sweet wild roses,
Heavy with dew, new-waking in the morn,
And they had breathed it to a thousand others
Before another day was slowly born.
90 tickle roses - said 1, 'you shall perish!''
So plucked them for my lady sweet to wear
In the pure silence of her maiden bosom,
The curled luxuriance of her chestnut hair
told the secret to a bird new building
Her nest at peace within the spreading tree,
And ere her children had begun to chatter
She told it DER and DER right joyously
traitor birdr' whispered, stay thy singing;
Thou doest not know, there in thy nest above
That secrets are not made to tell to others;
That silence is the birthright of true love!''
told the secret to my love, my lady;
She held it closely to her darling breast
Then as l clasped her came a tiny whisper:
1.-THE birds and flowers told me all the rest.
Nor shouldst thou chide them that they speak
the secret
The whole world is chord of love divine
And birds and flowers but fulfil their mission
In telling secrets sweet as mine and thine!'

A SECRET WELL KEPT.
The Story ola Murder Forty Years ago Toll
for the First Time

The Story ola Murder Forty Years ago Told
for the First Time.
Between forty and fifty years ago an old
log church stood on the South Commons in
Allegheny City, Pa. 1t was then in the open
country. Adjoining and belonging to the
church was graveyard, fronting on the pub
lie road.
About daybreak one morning in 1910
farmer who was on his way to Pittsburg with
load of dressed meat heard sounds issuing
from the graveyard as if some one was
knocking box to pieces with an axe. He
climbed the fence and stole along in the di-
rection of the sounds. He had gone but a
short distance when he found man engaged
in robbing grave, He had been so abb
sorbed in his work that he had not heard the
approach of his discoverer, and he was in the
act of lifting the body from the coffin when
he heard the footsteps of the farmer. The
grave was that of prominent young woman
who had been buried the day before.
The farmer was so filled with horror and
indignation at the crime that before the man
could spring out he seized club that lay
near, and dealt the robber powerful blow
on the head. The man fell into the grave
and neither uttered a sound nor moved after
falling. The farmer became alarmed. Drop
ing into the grave himself, he raised the
mans body. The grave robber was none
other than the sexton of the church, man
standing high in the community. He was
dead
The farmer hurried back home, and, tell
ing his relatives of what had occurred he at
once left the state. Only five persons ever
knew the secret of the graveyard tragedy be-
sides the living principal: Who found the
body of the sexton dead in the grave was not
positively known by them, but as it was Civ
en- out by his family, that he died suddenly,
and no investigation was ever made, they
supposed that the body must have been dis
covered by some one of the family before its
position was known to any one else.
The sections family soon afterward moved
away. His slayer went to an Ohio town,
where he married and grew into prominence
and wealth. He died last week. His secret
was never divulged, and even his wife and
children lived in ignorance of it. The secret
at the time of his death, was in the keeping
of two persons alone, the other three having
died. One of these persons is a leading
clergyman of Allegheny. The other is the
writer's informant, resident of the oil re-
gions. He says that the death of the princi-
pal in the graveyard tragedy has released
him from all pledge of secrecy. He refuses
to reveal the names, but affirms that the story
is true in every particular.
