Then, not knowing exactly what to do
with the remainder OF the food which
he had cooked, he set that down for the
dog also, and took his hat and went out
to work.
Several times that afternoon he Won
dered to himself that he had never be-
fore noticed how still it was out there
in the orchard. and whether it was al
ways SO perfectly quiet on the farm any
how; and if the geese swimming about
in the little pond made for them by
means of Il low dam across the creek,
always moved around without making
any more stir in the water; or if their
occasional "honk' when one rose up
in the water and tapped his wings was
always pitched on that particular lone
some key.
As night approached he returned to
the house and fed the teams and the
pigs and the poultry and then went in
and got his own supper At dinner he
had said to himself that he would wash
all the dishes after supper, when he
should have nothing else to do. but
after eating his supper he found that he
had no hot water, and decided to defer
the JOB until morning; SO he let Bose
lick the grease off of them and stacked
them up in the sink and went to bed an
hour earlier than was his custom, with
out spending any time porting over his
fasori,e authors, with nobody to dis
turb him.. lis he hal fancied himself
doing when the idea of leaving him in
sole charge of the house for a week had
first been preached.
The next morning he arose, built a
fire and put on water to heat and then
went out 10 feed the animals. The old
dog welcomed him with wag of the
tail, and even followed him to the gate,
but went no further. He had not yet
recovered from his yesterdays unusual

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 24.-As a precaution-
airy measure to allay apprehension the presi-
dent of the board of health has issued an or
der to the representatives of the various
roads coming into this city and passing
through or near infected points not to bring
into the city any coaches in which refugees
from infected points have travelled North.
All local trains on the Illinois Central have
been abandoned. Only through trains are
running. Commercial Agent General Glyun,
acting under instructions received last even
ing has withdrawn all trains ON the north
eastern railroad on account of the action of
the quarantine authorities at Meredian, Miss,
and York, Ala, in refusing to allow trains to
pass these points. There is not an infected
place on the line of the Queen and Crescent
road. As there Ia no rail connection between
Chattanooga and Memphis or Cairo, mails
have been diverted via Nashville, Montgom-
cry and Nav Orleans
