A Landlords Ruse.

My friend, who told me the following
yarn, is one of the prOprietors Of a big
summer hotel on the New England coast.
At this time Of the year he is taking
things easy" and waiting for next sum
mer to come, and he spends a certain
portion of his leisure time in my Office,
where i am always glad to welcome one
of the fraternity. One day last week he
lighted q fresh cigar, disposed himself at
the proper angle IN MS chair, and fired
away about as follows:
''Did / ever tell you the inside history
of our sudden grand change from cOlored
walters to white down at the beach last
season. It made lots Of talk at the time.
Well, sir, this is hOWit happened. It was
in the middle Of dinner one day, and
everything sliding along as usual, when
one of the walters went down stairs and
walked up to the girl who gave out the
toast, said: You Irish, give me some
toast The girl up with the toasting-
rack and let him have it over the head.
He had in his hand q heavy butter dish,
and he gave her 8 crack with this on the
side of her head that knocked her sense
less and stiff as quick as stroke of lightn-
ing could have done it. Somebody ran
for me, and j piled down, with D.,
our special constable and detective, close
behind me. There lay the girl, appa-
rently dead, and the place was full of
fcoons,' who were after their orders for
dining room. D. jumped right on to
the fellow, and together we hustled him
ND stairs and had him showed into clos
ct and the door locked before the crowd
down stairs knew what was going on.
Nov, there is this difference between
white walters and eolored ones: If a
white waiter gets drunk or cuts up rusty
ven. can throw HIM out, or knock him
down and drag him out If necessary, and
that's All there is to 1t; but if you touch
one coon they're all on top Of you and
there's 'raZOrs in the air in no time.
HWell, in a minute these fellows dis
covered that their man was gone, and
they began TO rush through all the low
er corridors and halls looking for him
There was a regular pandemonium there
you can bet, with the gang of darkeyf

'But, lay yer hat aside and take chair;

see yer deaui but there she gave her heart
Just were yer set. see yer blush; cen
Was bashful then. But there did it. Try2

/ mustered courage. Parson tied Us fast.
"And then the world was Paradise. COW
Was all she had as dOWry. Lord knows how
We KEEP the wolf away. Bnt Wus strong
And you believe me John, 1t wasn't long
Afore we had this leetle farm on tick;
And 'tWere a puzzle, too, en- to old Nick,
How fast the mortgage melted. But, friend
John,
She was very Queen with apron Onl
and Nancy. She, John came to help US bear
Our burdens. Bindin' heart to heart. The care
OF her had taught US practice, and our love
Grew stronger-Nancy? Yes, a leetle dove
From out they sky. And you'll agree, of course;
For as the friend OF Farmer Bowl the source
OfIove were fountain false that could not see
All hOmely virtues in their lovely Nancy.
'rBut, John, yer sick. Tho maybe what say

She went to Deacon BANDS. If Nancyu deau,

When Nancy's mother was a fair young maid
He WOOed and won when corn was IN the blade

While he and she went jogging slow along;
And came the stars, and bl1nked upon the scenei
The wind grew strong, The air was cold and
keen,
As farmers viii, the hour was somewhat late,
When "Whoa!" stopped the old mare right at the
gate;
he scarce could see the grass that lined the
And Nancy's ma said "Hushl' as Farmer Brown
Uttered a "by-WOrd'' as he clamb ered down,
And caught mis- left foot in the tangled reins,
Muttering that some folks didn't have any
brains.'
A hickering match soon lighted up the room;
And there, . dearl across the partial gloom,
Proud Farmer Brown and Nancy's good old me
INDUCED together in a loud "ha-ha!'
For do believe it, all the IRE was out;
The candle fickered from its greasy spout,
And Brown said something thenabOut a sheep,

Would you like to know him2" he

Violet moved her head slightly In as

had taken place.
t'You are from Cincinnati I believe"
said Rupert, after they had COnVersed q

Then we shall surely be friends.
once knew a man who lived In Dayton
g "Ah, indeedp'
. Then Rupert excused himself, but as
he walked away Violet knew, by that
subtle instinct which enables women, to
tell that there Is a fly In the butter even
before they have entered the dining
room that no other man would ever
possess her heart so completely. And
so when they met again she was very
cordial. 1t was the old, old hump-back-
ed and gray-headed story Of friendship
that grows into love, and before the
Newport season was ended Niole4 Caryll
and Rupert HetheringtOn had phghted
their trOth.
Why they had quarrelled nobody
seemed to know. It was simply given
out that the engagement had been
broken, and soon after this came the
news that Rupert Hetherington's i'm
mense fortune had been ingulfed in the
maelstrOm Of free-for-au pacing race.
Then he drifted out of Violet's world
altogether, and for nearly two years she
had been living at Rosebud Villa, her
fathers country seat. Always fearless of
personal danger, she was accustomed to
take long walks about the place in the
soft June evenings, and during one of
them had discovered a man forcing his
Tnf0r of mart "a tho hnTTgn hnr
the silver and jewels were kept. 1t was
this man to whom she had spoken the
words with which this chapter opens.
He stood there for a moment and then
suddenly dropped his arm so that his
face became visible.
'YOu know me, I SUPPOSED" he said.
The girl looked at him intently for an
instant, and her face became white as
marble.
Great God!o she cried. at is Rupert

eyes" he answered. Rupert J. Heth-
erington, once your promised groom. It
is true. 1 am common burglar. /
must steal or starve.
For an instant the girl did not speak.
Then she simply said: "YOu say that
you are poor; that with wealth once more
in your possession you would be honest.
Do you mean this?"
"I do"
''Then follow me- and walking before
him the girl led the way to a dollhouse
which stood near by. Entering it, she
soon returned and placed in the mans
hand a small package. 'Take thai" she
said. ''You can sell it for enough to
again place you beyond the reach of
want" and waving him away with an
imperious gesture she turnedand entered
the house. Rupert hastily opened the
box, and as he saw its contents a great
wave Of Joy swept over his soul. 'GOd
bless her" he murmured. "She has in
deed redeemed her promise, and with
what I shall receive for the contents of
