wait here. Have you got the money
4 beseech you, good sir, at least give
me a months time, so that if | do not
find the receipts in the meantime,
may try to borrow the money of some
friend.'
I cannot grant your request
Give me week then
Not day., said the miser, impatient
ly. Since you can't pay the money,
the farm IS mine, and you must move
away before the sun goes down.
May; not so fast, said Martin, in a
different tone. I did not tell you !
could not pay it. Since you insist on
being paid twice. just write your re-
ceipt.
'You-you have not the money,
stamm cred the disappointed miser.
Yes but | have, though, said Mar.
tin, drawing out bag of gold. And
now, old man, do your work quickly.
for by my fathers memory you shall nc
longer cumber my house-maaae, do you
hear p
With an air of impotent vexation,
Hugh Stamford drew from his pocket
the receipt which he bad already drawn
up, but which he had no thought that
he should be obliged to us.
Martin told down upon the lattice
one hundred good pounds, and in re-
turn took the receipt, which he took
care to examine thoroughly, to make
sure that there had been no tlickery
about it. But it was in due form.
And now,' said Martin, menacingly
I can dispense with your company
Gel you gone
The old man shambled out of the
house, and mounting upon his wretch
ed steed, set out on his return to the
city, considerably less elated than when
he had started.
But his troubles were not yet all over
He had scarce got half a mile from the
cottage, when a stout man, clad in Lin.
coin green, started from covert by the
side Of the road. lie sprang forward
and seized Hugh Stamford's horse. The
old man tried to spur his horse to q
gallop but the poor creature who was
half starved, had but little spirit, and
instead Of increasing his speed, stood
stock still.
What want you of me..' asked the
old man in alright.
Just one hundred pounds, Was the
answer.
IL have not that amount about
me, said Hugh, uneaslly. 1T is more
than possess
That is a talsehood, said the man in
Lincoln green, sternly. 1T is scarce
fifteen minutes since you had that sum
paid to you. Best give me what de-
mand, or | will examine thy purse and
mayhap, find more
Now it happened that Hugh did
have nearly two hundred pounds a.
bout him, and, fearing to lose all, re-
luctantly gave up the purse he had last
received.
Now, said the other, as he released
him, let this be a warning to you how
you try to cheat honest people. Eigh-
ty pounds Of these hundred you have
hIched from young Martin, and the re-
ma;ader | exact as a fine for your dis
honesty.
So saying, he turned away, and old
Hugh Stamford, wrirging his hands
for very grief at his loss, made the best
Of his way back to Nottingham.
The next morning young Martin
found at his door a piece Of paper, that
on examination, proved to be a receipt
in full for the eighty pounds which had
been lent him by his unknown visitor
of the week previous. Unknown no
longer however, for at the bottom of the
scrap of paper was signed in good round
letters the name of robin Hood"

Fifty years ago this was all the terri.

of Iowa, Missouri, Kansas; N ebraska
and Colorado are where the west once
represented only vast stretches of
prairie, forest and mountain; tenanted
only by wild beasts and savages scar.
cely less wild than they. Now these
are among the most prosperous and
wealthy states of the republic. In the
upper Mississippi Valley, and in the
more northern portions of Minnesota
and Dakota, are some who seek for a
milder climate and shorter winter.

in the matter were, upon his return

order of Judge Brown. On account of
their youth and their never having
been previously charged with any
offense against the laws,and for other
reasons, it was the judges opinion
that they had been sufficiently
punished and that it was proper they
should be discharged with severe
reprimand and warning of what the
