first sin recorded against man led to
clothing, and Drane now felt the weight
Of fearful hcredity. He, too, would
sin and be clothed.
II wonder il his garments would fit
me outwardly as we'll as his breakfast
fitted me inwardly," he muttered, and
then laughed recklessly.
Nobody was watching. He pushed
the strangers door open a little. Yes;
they were excellent clothes, to Judge by
the little he could see through the crack
of the door. Dressed in that way Drane
could establish his identity in no time;
and no doubt pass the whole affair of rs
joke. Thus he thought, for the poor
fellow was really half crazed by the per-
picking experiences Of the last few days.
He pushed the door still further; he
was conquered. 1t seemed that he
could hear a derisive chuckle from the
rags in the next room. He scarcely
looked at the clothes, but hustled them
on, all but the coat, which he carried
into the hall because q strange feeling
came over hin, that he had seen it be-
fore. Under an electric light he turned
a pocket of the garment inside out and
read the owners name written there.

rious. The Princes who had been de-
prived Of their powers by the East In
dian Company had been active in stir
ring up general discomfort. The Brit
ish had raised and armed large native
force. which was drilled and commanded
by British officers. This force vas COM
posed partly Of Sepoys Of Bengal. who
were by religion high caste Brahmins,
and partly Mohammedana These
troops came in time to realize that
British power in the East largely de-
pended upon them for maintenance. and
therefore grew arrogant and displayed at
times mutinous spirit. Good manage
ment on the part OF the Off GERS, howev-
er, for a long time prevented an out
break. and besides, q most bitter preju.
dice existed between the Mohammedans
and the Brahmin soldiers which pre-
vented their acting together. But it
was religious fanaticism that proved at
las. the immediate cause of the trouble.
Early in 1857 Enfield rifles had been
substituted for the smooth-bore muskets
of the native troops. 1t was
necessary. to secure accuracy
of aim with the new gun. to use
Tight -ftting cartridge, and this was
creased with lard that it might be more

the swine is an abomination. To touch
or taste the fat Of this animal is defile-
menc and sacrilege, and to the Brahmin
is total loss Of caste as we'll. The de-
posed Princes had tried to stir up disaf-
lection among the people by telling
them that the native religions were to
be overthrown, the sacred institutions
of caste destroyed. and the people made
to adopt the faith OF the invader. Tho
OF the creased cartridge
seemed TO be confirmation of these
and storm Of mutiny broke
out. Although, as soon as the objection

the native soldiers were allowed 10 pre-

animal fat. nothing could stay the wave
OF popular wrath. We can not tell you
how many of the Sepoys were put to
death by being blown from the mouths
Of cannon. According to some historians
a large number were thus destroyed.
The excuse given by the British for
adopting this atrocious method was that

''Tll sell my chance in that hundred
for a pipeful of plug" said the man who
had put Drane in nomination for the
convention. ''As for the chance to go
to work, I don't want it. I'll give it
away
Altogether, Drane did not find this
asscmblage of the unfortunate so inter-
esting as he had thought it might be.
He withdrew from the circle soon and
climbed high up on the hay till the raft
ers were just over his head. Then he
lay down to sleep, and dreams carried
him to other and far different scenes.
At first there were pictures of home,
and then the familiar faces faded away
and in their place came one which had
imprinted itself on his heart more
clearly than he knew-the face of the
woman whom he had bef-iended and
who in turn had remembered him.
Through strange and difficult paths he
was pursuing her. There was danger
around them both. Suddenly he over
took her and tried 20 speak to her, but
his voice would not come. He was chok-
ing. She seemed to read the agony in
his eyes, for her face grew pitiful. He
was dying at her feet. The hot sun cast
q terrible red glare upon him. 1t was
descending from the heavens to burn
him to cinder.
With a struggle he threw the hideous
vision from him and awOke. The red
glare was still in his eyes, the choking
In his throat. The barn was on fire.
Already the hay below him was blazing,
cutting off his escape. The smoke was
like visible demon clutching him. He
CROPPED 20 tho wall and put his lips to .
little space between the boards, seeking
for air, but the hot vapor from within
rushed out, and he could not breathe.
The thought Of death in that strange
place crowded upon him-a fate Of
which those who loved him would never
hear-his ashes scattered to the winds.
Frantically he struck the board before
him with his clenched hand. 1t yield

rained blows upon tho rotten wood, till
he beat it from its fastenings, and then
with last effort he forced his body
through the opening and swung himself
to the ground.

One hears a good many tales on circuit
and can't tell how many of them ara

worth reproducing. Here an instance:
A prisoner was being tried for his life
in the days when demonstrating was a
capital offense. The evidence was all
against him and he had no defense but
an alibi's; swore it was case of mis-
taken identity. that he was a sailor and
was away in the West Indies on some
ontting-Out expedition at the time when
the affair happened: thousands OF miles
away and knew nothing whatever about
it. Just before the vital. or lethal. mo-

excitement of the prisoner, who like all

A REMARKABLE THEFT.

REMARKABLE THEFT.
1t is q mistake to Judge wholly by ap-
pearances, for even Jersey mud was not
created in vain. To the gentle, yield
ing nature of that substance Drane
owed his preservation from serious in
jury when he came tumbling down the
side of the barn. AS it was, the shock
was violent. He dragged himself with
some difficulty to the lee of rock
fence and made a hasty examination,
which convinced him that no bones
were broken. There was a soreness in
his throat and lungs which made every
breath he drew seem full Of three-cor-
nered files, but on the whole he was in
fair condition and ablc to walk, which
was fortunate, as no other means Of get
ting away were at hand.
Before him was the blazing barn,
now one mass OF fire. He reflected with
shudder that perhaps some poor
wretch had persisted there, and he be-
gan to reproach himself for having
made no effort to rescue those who had
been his companions in misfortune.
Then the recollection Of the way tho
flames had leaped up over the hay as
sured him that he need not charge him
self with cowardice. He recalled the
fact that he had climbed up on the loft
and that the others had remained be-
low. where doubtless they had been
awakened while the fire smoldered. fill
ing the barn with that smoke which
had nearly been the death Of him.
A crowd had now collected about the
barn. and he decided to 60 down and
mingle with it. He did so, and the first
words he heard were these: .Some
blamed tramp has set this barn afire.
Every one Of EN- found in the county
to-day ought to be put in jail
Drane did not wait to discuss the
question. He took hasty and uncere-
1nonious leave. For half an hour he
plodded through plowed fields, and
climbed fences, till at length he came to
a factory Of some sort from which sever
al little branch railroad tracks ran to
the main line near by. Freight cars
were being loaded there; and Drane.
watching his chance, got aboard of one
unobserved. On the top of big box
he stretched his weary limbs and fell
asleep.
The train was in motion when he
awoke. 1t ran on for nearly an hour, he
thought, without stopping. Then came
lot of humping and switching about.
followed by prolonged pause. Listen
ing, he heard strange sound like the
splash of waves. He crept to the side
OF the car and found crevice through
which he peered. To his establishment
he found that he was sailing on broad
river. A great city lay to the right, and
it did not take him long to discover that
it was New York. Apparently the me-
tropolis was hard place to get away
from.

HOW TO DESTROY COMFORT

Build House Bigger Than You Need OF
Can Afford.
An ideal or earthly comfort, so common
that every reader must have seen it, is to
get house SO big that it is burdensome
to maintain, and fill it up so full of jim
cracks that it is constant occupation to
keep it in order says writer in Scrib-
mer's Magazine. Then, when the ex-
pense of living in it is so great that
you can't afford to go away and rest
from the burden of it,the situation is COM
plete and boarding houses and cemeteries
begin to yawn for you. How many Amer
icaEs, do you suppose, out of the droves
that flocked annually to Europe are rum
ing away from oppressive houses? When
nature undertakes to provide house, it
fits the occupant. Animals who build by
instinct build only what they need, but
mans building instinct, if it gets chance
to spread itself at all, is boundless, just az
all his instincts are. For it is mans pecu-
liarity that nature has filed him with
impulses to do things, and left it to his
discretion when to stop. She never tells
him when he has finished. And perhaps
we ought not to be surprised that in SO
many cases it happens that he doesn't
know, but just goes ahead as long as the
material lasts.
If another man tries to Cypress him he
understands that and is ready to fight to
death and sacrifice all he has rather than
submit, but the tyranny of things is so
subtle, SO gradual in it's approach, and
comes 80 masked with seeming benefits
that it has him hopelessly bound before
he suspects his letters.
