He was brave officer during the war, and
one OF the stock stories about him is the re-
mark of General Mower 6, who received him
after his division had been cut into pieces
by the enemy, and he, out of shot and shell
at Mower command had came to his head
quarters. As Colonel Rusk saluted the
General the latter said: 81 have sent for
you because you are the only man in this
army or any other army that 1 ever saw who
could ride further into hades than ca q,
and want you to take drink with me.
COULD EAT BUT NOT DRINK.
"I thank you," said Colonel Rusk, "but
1 can't do that, as 1 never drink"
"You don't. Well, should like to know
how a man can ride SO far into hades without
taking drink. Do you eat?"
Certainly I do" said Colonel Rusk,
"and have not had a bite since morning"
The two then ate together and their friend
ship continued until Mowers death.
The story of how Rusk as Governor of
Wisconsin quelled the mob in Milwaukee
bv ordering the troops to sire low and fire
to kill" is well-known, and as 1 looked at
him in the Ebbitt House last night the in
cident of his wrestling match with James
A. Garfield came to me and resolved to
settle the question, which / had never seen
settled in the newspapers, which of the two
was the victor. I asked the General, and
he told me that the match took place at
Newark, o. He was then 1S years old and
was driving four-horse stage, while Gar
field was boy leading a mule on the canal.

Rusk pronounces it) "was very common in
those days." he said, land it was the mos

CHAPTER XXI.

MYSTERIOUS POWER IN THE PALACE.
Face to face with hideous death, Ia
hara's mind made sudden bound into
train of thought quite foreign to her.
Here is chance for that Nazarene fel-
low! If he were what Lazarus thinketh
him, would that he were here to expert
ment in our calamity"
At this moment the lips of Lazarus moved,
and the fainting man muttered something
with agonized indlstinctness. Zahara bent
desperately trying to hear what he said-to
catch his last dear word. The water had
reached his throat; she tried to raise his
head little higher on her breast; her own
form rocked in the rising torrent as she
stopped, the water poured into her mouth
and she gasped with the cold shock. The
head of her lover drooped and fell.
"Masterp murmured the drowning man,
"Lord, forgive me, for loved Thee all the
while"
lazarus" called Zahara with piercing
CRY, "arouse thee! The water reeedes" As
she spoke these words the current sank sud-
denly; it made strong, sucking sound, as
if the water were drawn off by some power
full agency, and whirled away into the dark
ness OF an unknown pit. A torch hared and

THE WATERS OVERWHELMED THEM.
But Lazarus, who had often heard this
sound as of torrent. said again:
1T is naught, dearest. The waters are
above. Thou shalt come to the Temple dry
shod. Keep up thy strength and despair
not.''
He had no time to comfort her as his heart
would. He felt a dumb fear lest the other
stone door were barred, too. He redoubled
his pace and Zahara followed downward.
At this moment his foot splashed sandal
deep in water. He stopped. They listened;
he stood with his arm protectingly over her
shoulder. she with her head upon his heart.
The maiden's ears had not been deceived.
The murmuring of dashing water was now
clearly distinguishable. Lazarus thought
that they were within 20 feet of the bottom
of the descent. They were beneath the
Tyropean Valley. He fancied he could
hear the breathing of the city as it slept.
He could not believe that it was water at
his feet. He stopped, and rell backward as
he did so. He touched and tasted. SIT is
icy as the SHOWS OF Lebanon" he murmured
to himself.
"What is it?" asked Zahsra. "Why 90
we not on? 1t is cold and am tired. Is it
much further to the temple?" A low, CUR
CLING noise was now heard. 1t seemed to
come from the ascent ahead Of them. Ia
hara gave little cry.

silver wires half concealed o good-sized
mouth.
The giants neck was framed in stand
ing collar. His great overcoat was unbut-
toned at the front, and his big hands, thrust
to their wrists into his capacious pantaloons
pockets, threw it back, displaying to the
full his immense form as he stood there as
straight as Lake Superior oak and chatted
with knot OF LilliputIan Congressmen.
NEITHER ALCOHOL NOR TOBACCO.
"He weighs 249 pounds in his bare feet,
without stitch of clothing on him, one of
his friends had said to me a moment before,
and as 1 looked at him believed it. I
could see too, that the flesh was healthy
meat, and it corresponded with the state
ments that the giant never touched spirit
Hous liquors, and never soiled his silver
mustache and beard with the fragrant nico-
tine. This giant was the Hon Jeremiah
Rusk, Secretary of the Department of Ag-
riculture, and the representative of the
farmers of the United States.
Governor Rusk is to-day one of the most
conspicuous of the public men at Washing
ton. The agricultural community is now
engrossing the attention of Congress. Every
one Is talking o! w eStern larn mortgages
and the New England Senators are pushing
to the front the abandoned farms OF Yer
mont and New Hampshire. Senator Stan
ford is making the bankers lie awake at
night over his proposition for Uncle Sam to
loan out the surplus to farmers at per cent,
and Uncle Jerry Rusk has again jumped
into national prominence. His frame is
such that he is able to bear all the response
bilities thrust upon him. He has taken up
the cause OF the farmers and he proposes to
add dignity to the department over which
ne presides.

LEARNING A TRADE.

The Necessity illustrated by the Fable of
the Cat and the Fox.
Every young man and woman should be-
come master of some skilled employment
The Hebrews had a saying, that che who
does not teach his child trade brings him
up to steal" Our great cities are full OF
those who, though sober and industrious,
cannot secure work, because they are each
jack -of-all-trades-good at none. 1t sug-
gests the fable of the cat and the fox.
II, says the fox, "have hundred cum
ming expedients for escaping from the
hounds"
II, replied the cat, ''have only one-I
climb tree
One day the hounds caught the fox; and
the cat surveyed the capture from the safe
shelter of her perch.

dOws in Governor Rusk's office. which look
out upon these, said to Uncle Jerry: "Well,
Jerry, you have mighty nice place here, ii
you are the tail of the Cabinet -
Governor Rusk quickly replied: "Well.
Cannon, 1 would like to know what tail is
for If 1t is not to look beautiful and keen
the flies off"
Within the past few months Governor
Rusk has been content with being a tail no
longer. or, II he must De the tail, he has de-
elded that ne Will do what he can to aid in
wagglng the administration dog. He served
notice upon Funston, the head of the House
Committee or Agriculture, the other dav that
he did not propose to have the appropriation
for his department this year made out on the
old Bureau OF Agriculture basis He told
him that Congress had given the farmers to
understand that they intended TO do some
thing for them when they raised the bureau
TO department, and if they could not do So
they had better repeal the law and reduce if
to a bureau once more. He told Funston
that he proposed 10 fight for the Department
OF Agriculture, and that any Congressn an
who opposed it would oppose him, and that
he intended to take off his coat and TO 90
into that Congressman's district and stump
it against his reelection during the next
campaign.
MOI A TON f.
st will show the farmers" said Governor
Rusk, hwho their friends are, and would
like to have you understand that you can't
treat me as though were little, whiting,
putting toy engine. l want you to know
that L am Great Mogul with eight drivers,
and If you fellows want TO buck against me
you can buck and we'll see vino holds the
track"
Governor Rusk says that every power in
Europe gives more to agriculture than we
do, and that during 1856 France appropri-
sted 100000 and Austria 100000 for
agriculture. 1t is his idea that the Agr-
cultural Department of the United States
should be organized on a broader basis than
that of European countries, aud he is doing
all he can 10 push t..
Governor Rusk will fight Cor it, too, and
his record shows that be is not blusterer.

HISTORY OF THE GALLONS.
Its Evolution From the Ordinary Tree te
the Modern Affair.

Its Evolution From the Ordinary Tree to
the Modern Affair.
Evidently the stout arm of tree served
as the primitive gallows, and such was in
Use at very early period in mans history.
In the book of Esther we read that Haman
was hanged on the tree that had
been prepared for Mordecai. In
more recent times, in ancient ballads
and accounts of the gallows, references are
made to the "fatal tree" the ''gallows tree, !"
the triple tree, ""Tyburn tree" etc. A
tree was not, however, always found con-
veniently placed to convert it into a gal
lows, and thus the introduction OF the SIM
pie construction, consisting OF two upright
posts and transverse beam, the principle
of which has not been materially altered
from its first introduction.
The gallows at times differed In height,
which was increased in accordance with the
Nervousness of the crime Of the culprit.
These elevated erections were made use of at
the executions of the regicides in the seven
teenth century, and thus it was that
long ladders were required in carry
ing out the last extremities of the
law. When ladders were used the
executioner mounted one, and the culprit
the other. The rope having been adjusted
to the cross beam, the executioner would
descend and remove his ladder, leaving the
condemned wretch on the other engaged in
his last appeals for mercy. These prayers
were at times exceedingly prolonged. after
finishing which the miserable wretch was
expected to throw himself off the ladder,
and thus to some extent become his own ex-
ecutioner
Courage, however, would often fail at the
last moment and his prayers would be con-
tinued for long time. When it was evil
dent that the culprit was praying against
time, the executioner would stealthily reach
the ladder on which he stood and overthrow
it, and the body would consequently then be
swinging in the throes and agonies of DEATH
At one period it was customary to carry out
the execution of criminal as near as posi-
Bile to the spot where the crime, for which he
suffered, was committed
