That frightful journey-no nightmare wa,
ever half So'awfuf, But it came to an end al
last-there was the Bryngelly station. Geof.
rey sprung from the train and gave his ticket
to the porter. CHANGING in his face as he did
so. Surely IL there had been a tragedy the
man would know Of il, and show signs OF half
joyous emotion, as is the fashion of such peo-
Pile when something awful and mysterious
has happened to somebody else. But he
showed no such signs, and glimmer of hope
found its way into Geofrey's tormented
breast
He left the station and walked rapidly b.
ward the vicarage. Those who know what q
pitch OF horror suspense can reach may i'm
agine his feelings as he did so; but it was soon
to. be pat an end to now. As he drew near
the vicarage gate he met the fat Welsh ser.
want girl Betty running toward him. Thee
hope left Godfrey.
The girl recognized him, and IN her con
fusion did not seem the least astonished to see
him walking there at a quarter TO zon a sum-
mer morning. Indeed, even she vaguely con

for she at once said, in her thick English;

Then the girl plunged into long story.

from home, and would not be hack for an
other two hours. Miss Beatrice had gone ont

Further, Beatrice told her assistant that
she had determined TO alter the course Of GER

arithmetic class had hitherto been taken be

had determined to change this; she would
take the grammar class at 10 and the arith-

Poor Beatrice! these were the only lies she
ever told.
She left the teachers ltdgings, and was
about to go down TO the beach and sit there
till it was time, when she was met by tue ia
Their of the poor crazed child Jane Llewellyn.

She accompanied the man to his cottage.
The poor child, dressed only in a night shirt,

doctor or her mother do anything to quiet
her.

He stabbed q Big Pumpkln.

Since the death of Hon. John McSweeney,
OF Wooster, Ohio, many interesting remi-
niscences connected with the distinguished
lawyers life are recalled. One Of the most
dramatic scenes ever enacted In court
room took place in Wooster when Mr..
insolvency was aiding In the prosecution
of John Callahan for the murder Of John
Tormie, 10 years ago. Tormie died
from knife stabs received in brawl
at the fair grounds. When McSweeney
addressed the jury In his case he had Q
large pumpkin on q table before him. The
court room was jammed almost TO suffoca-
ton. As the flow of rhetoric fell from his
lips the audience appeared to be In breath
less attention. Suddenly the great lawyer
sprang forward, and, seizing knife began
plunging It into tho pumpkin to illustrate
the assault on the murdered man.
II acted like magic, and the intense still
ness of the room was broken only by the
burning eloquence as 1t rooted every
auditor to the floor, and scarcely breath
was drawn in the room as the knife was
thrust number of times into the pumpkin.

for their own usc which beats anything

they are full ripe and about 70 drop.
They halve them and lay them on a board

the halves are packed down ia layers.

Cannon Made of Leather.

'Lot me give you bit of history"
said downtown leather merchant the
other day, ''that many student has
overlooked. The objects of peace are
not nll that leather figures in, for IL is to
leather that we owe the introduction of
light artillery. Leather cannon have
actually been tried on tho battlefield,
and, what is moro, turned the tide of
one of the greatest battles of modern
times. The inventor of leathcrn artillery
was a certain Colonel Robert Scott, a
Scotchman in the service of Charles l., of
England.
"He constructed guns OF hardened
leather aud experimentally tried them.
The result was that they were pronounced
superior to guns of brass or iron. But
the Colonel did not live long to enjoy the
greatest triumph of his invention. Ho
died in 1854. and monument erected to
his memory have seen in churchyard
in London. This monument represents
him as an armor- clad, fierce looking man,
wearing a heavy mustache and pointed
beard
''ln the very year of tho Colonols
death the effectiveness of his loathern
artillery was amply proved ON the
memorable field OF Lcipsic, where,
September z, 1881, Gustavus Adolphus
achieved his splendid victory over the
lmperialists under General Tilly. IL is
said that it was owing to the invention
OF Colonel Scott that the victory was OBJ
taincd.
'The guns were found to be so easily
carried that small battery could fly
from one part of the lcld to another,
and thus artillery be brought to bear
where most necdcd--a thing impossible
with the heavy artillery of that period.
Certain il is that leathern artillery was
used in this great battle by Gustavus,
though it is equally certain that the guns
were never used afterward The reason
OF that, however, was that the leather
guns having demonstrated the value of
light artillery, way was discovered OF
making the metal guns lighter, and the
greater durability OF the latter gave them
the superiority. "-Frdnk Lesiie's.
