tight. The horse was brought round.
Mr.. Pritcbard came in for the boy. |
think he believed up to the last mo-
ment that Tommy would confess, but
Tommy stood steadfast.
He was lifted into the wagon. Such
a little boy he looked, as they drove
away. He thought of the cold for
lorn house TO which he was returning,
and shuddered. The helpless old
women, the ieering boys, the nights
of terror-all these he thought of,
when, with pale face and blue lips,
he was taken down from the wagon
and sent up to the house. Farmer
Pritchard watched him as he went up
the steps, slow, forlorn little boy.
He went in. The matron came out
for an explanation. 1t was given,
and the farmer drove away.
The farmer laid fresh stock OF
gumdrops on his bureau at night, and
thought grimly that these were safe.
He retired early, not knowing what
else to do; but his sleep was broken.
Mrs. Pritchard could not sleep at
all. The tears stole through her eye
lids long after the candle was put out,
and the house was still. She was
thinking of the little boy, even then,
perhaps, covering in his cold bed Of
terror.
Suddenly, a curious, small sound
attracted her attention. 1t was re-
peated again and again, and now and
then there was tiny rustic of the
paper. The sound came from the
bureau. She listened intently and
her heart beat loud with excitement.
She knew the sound we'll.
"Josephl" she whispered; $40
seph!"
"What, Lucy" said her husband
in voice that sounded as if he, too,
had been lying awake.
''Did you hear that noise, Joseph
It's mice!"
81 know it. What of it,"
cts mice, Joseph, and they're
after your gumdrops."
Good gracious, Lucy!' groaned
Farmer Pritchard upon his pillow. 1t
flashed upon him instantly. He, and
not Tommy, was the sinner. The
noise stopped. The little depredators
were frightened, but soon began
again, And rare feast they made
of it.
It.secmcd as if that night would
never end. The farmer heard every
hour the clock struck, and at five he
got up and made a fire in the kitchen.
His wife arose at the same time, and
began to get breakfast.
IL won't wait for breakfast" he
said. "You can have it hot and
ready when we get back. I'll harness
up, and start now, 50 as to get over
there by dawn"
In few moments the wheels rolled
noisily over the frozen ground out on
the road, and away drove Mr.. Pritch-
ard in tie morning starlight.
Mrs. Pritchard brought out the top
and the primer again, and made the
kitchen look its very cheerfulIest.

and on the bureau near the head OF
his bed, he kept a few gumdrops,
which he could reach out and get to
soothe his throat when the coughing
came on. One forenoon, CHANGING to-
60 into the bedroom, his eye fell on
the little paper bag, and he saw that
there was not single gumdrop left.
"That rogue, Tommy, has been
here" he said to himself. 81 know
there were five or six when | went to
bed last night; and for wonder [
did not have to take single one.
Tommy Tommy! Look here! Have
you been getting my gumdrops?"
Tommy, who was playing in the
door, looked up brightly and said:
"No; | did not get any,
"Did you take them, Lucy?" asked
the farmer, turning to his wife.
Mrs. Pritchard had not touched
them, and her heart sank as she said
so; for who was there left to do it but
Tommy? Her husbands face grew
grave.
"Tommy," said he, 'you need
not be afraid of the truth. Didn't
you take the gumdrops?'
"No, l didn't" replied Tommy
readily.
ooh! yes you did, Tommy. Now
tell the truth"
"No, | didn't"
"This is bad, very bad indeed"
said Mr.. Prtchard, sternly. "This
is what I've been afraid of"
80 Tommy! pleaded Mrs. Pritch-
ard, "if you took them, do say So"
:. "If he took them ~ repeated her
husband. "Why, it's clear as day
light. He has been running in and
out of the room all the morning."
But Tommy still denied the deed,
though the farmer commanded, and
his wife implored. Mr.. Prtchard's
face grew ominous.
"I'll give you till noon to tell the
truth" he said; "and if then you
don't confess-why, I'll have nothing
to do with boy who lies. Wen ride

following her husband into the entry.
Giles so little! Give him one more

"Lucy," he said firmly, "when u
youngster tells falsehood like that
with so calm a face, he is ready to
tell them by the dozen, I'll have
nothing to do with a boy that lies.
Perhaps the fear of going back will
bring him to his senses"
He went out to his work; and Mrs.
Pritchard returned to Tommy, and
talked with him a long while, very
kindly and persuasively, but all to no
effect. He replied as often as she
asked him, that he had not touched
the gumdrops.
At moon Farmer Pritchard came
into the house and they had dinner.
After dinner he called Tommy to him.
"Tommy," he asked, "did you
take the gumdrops?"
"No, | didn't" said Tommy.

A RARE SURGICAL CASE.
Reducing an Aneurism With Pres
sure by Relays sofVolunteers.
PHILADELPHIA Press. |

lThlhuclDnla Tress.I
Relays of medical students are work.
ing to save the life of q patient in the
University Hospital simply by keeping
constant, unwavering pressure on the
principal artery in his leg. The pa
iient is E. J. D0lan, and his case is the
second known to science. 1t is an
aneurism of the popiteal space-a point
just behind the knee cap, and an neur-
ism is point in an artery where the
walls are so weakened that it may
break and let the patient bleed to
death.
The patient has suffered the most ex-
cruciating pain. The pulses in his leg
shook the whole member. He could
not sleep, he wasted away, and his case
was regarded desperate when he was
brought to the hospital last Saturday,
Visiting surgeon Ashhurst laid out as
the line of treatment the forming of a
clot in the artery, which was to be done
by retarding the flow of blood by pres
sure on the artery. There were not
enough nurses to do this, SO volunteers
were called for from the medical stu
dents, Each was assigned for fifteen
minutes duty at the pressure. Some
of the volunteers can endure the labor
longer, some not so long, for though it
may seem easy it is hard work. The
patient cries out with agony if the
slightest variation of the pressure is al
lowed, and fifteen minutes of the tense
strain of not moving muscle unneces-
sarily is exhausting.
Though the use Of opiates the patient
last night got the first sleep of two
hours together he has had in a long
time. The pain had materially sub.
sided, and he is regarded as in q fail
way of recovery. The last student goes
off duty at O'Clock this afternoon, and
other treatment will follow the pres
sure.
The only similar case was treated in
the German Hospital in this city.

THE NORTHWEST
Judge Gresham on Cleveland.

Pittsburg Post: Judge Gresham, who
was, after Mr.. Blaine and Mr.. Sherman
the most prominent of the popularity
considered available candidates for the
Republican presidential nomination
last year, but who was weak in the con-
Vention for the reason that those who
controlled it thought him too independ-
ent in his Repubicanism, is reported in
the course of a newspaper interview to
have said that he could see nothing to
prevent the election of Mr.. Cleveland as
president by his party if the election
were to occur next November instead
of November of 1892. Commenting on
this the Philadelphia Telegraph, which
was warm supporter of the election of
General Harrison last year, says:
"There is nothing more remarkable
than the steadily increasing popularity
of Mr.. Cleveland and of his policy as
outlined in his message among the
Democracy. Without power, a defeated
candidate, with rejected policy, yet
he and it grow in the regard of the par
ty daily. In any gathering of Democrats
his name being mentioned, evokes the
greatest enthusiasm, and it is certain as
the sun shines that if the national DEM
Ocrtic convention were to meet now he
would be its virtually unanimous choice
and upon the very platform which was
last year rejected by the country. tits to
be remembered and it should especially
be noted by the Republican managers,
that that policy had majority on the
popular vote ofover q hudred thousand
and it is one of the significant signs of
the times that it is daily receiving con-
verts of voters and newspapers.
THE Democrats never before so con-
fdetly urged what they are pleased to
call tariff REFORM and their confidence
is undoubtedly the sequence of what
they believe to be the drift of public
opinion in their favor"
No doubt of that. The best eviden-
ces aside from this drift ofpublic opin-
ion" are the danger signals thrown out
by Republicans, who are commencing
to talk of tariffreform and hedge on the
preposterous ideas Of the Chicago plat
form and the senate tariff bill.

BAYARD-CLYMER,
The Long Talked of Wedding Takes
Place.


WASHINGTON, November $50 pro-
found has been the silence preserved by
the family of the bride-elect in connec-
ton with all matters relating to the
wedding of Miss Mary Willing Clymer
and ex-Secretary of State Bayard that
little or nothing of interest has leaked
out since the published announcement
that the long-talked-of marrioge would
be solemniZed at the home of the bride
at noon to-day. The ceremony will be
performed by Rev. DR.. Douglas, the
newly appointed rector of st. Johns.
Ex-Secretary Bayard arrived last
night, accompanied by the Misses Bay
ard, for whom apartments has been Sc
cured at Wormley's. During their stay
in Washington the young ladies will be
the guests of friends, a large circle of
whom are anxious to extend them the
hospitality of their homes. Miss Nam
ME, the attractive elder daughter. will
visit Mrs. Sitgreave and Miss Florence
has decided to accept the courtesy ex-
tended by the sisters of the Holy Cross,
with whom she is general favorite.
At Wormley's Mrs. Lockwood and Mr..
Levy Bird are also expected to arrive
with the wedding guests from Whining
ton. Members of the different branches
of the old Willing family from Phila-
delphia are also here.
The relationship of the Willings is a
double one to the contracting parties,
the eX-secretary's connection being
through his mother. A large upper
chamber has been set apart for the ac-
commodation Of the many elegant gifts
! which for weeks have been arriving
from all parts of the country. Among
them is an elaborate fan, originally in
the possession of the grandmother of
the bride, which will be carried at the
bridal. A distinguished party ofguests
including ex-President and Mrs. Cleve-
land, Colonel and Mrs. Lamont, ex-Sec-
retarv and Mrs. Fairchild and ex-Post-
master General and Mrs. Dickinson are
expected. During their stay in Wash
ington Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland will be
guests of the ex-Marshal of the district,
Mr.. Albert A. Wilson.
Few more magnificent trousseaus
have been seen in the national capital
than that which bears upon each gar
ment the monogram of Miss Clymer
now Mrs. Bayard. One of the carriage
and visiting gowns is golden-brown
velvet, en- princesse. The bottom of the
skirt has deep hem with an open work
insertion above it and band of sable
fur on the lower cape. This gown is in
one piece without the ordinary waist
forms, and is shirred about the waist as
high as the bust to fit the figure. The
waist fastens on the back. There is a
shoulder cape of the velvet with needle
work, like that on the skirt, and high
fur collar. The entire outfit came from
Paris. The future address of the bride
and groom will be Delamere PLACE, Will
mington, Del.
EX-President and Mrs. Cleveland
were among the guests.
