at the men. They were all splashed and | travel-torn.
 ''Could offer you any refresh1nent," [" said, half-timidly, ''for yourself or your horses? have heard my brother speak of you frequently" with the smile that years ago Payne Morse had found so be- witching
 She looked so frail and slight, so en- tirely different from the Southwestern feminine development, that Morgan, a great, good-natured giant, found him. self abashed As to his companions, they stood with their guns in the hollow of their arms, holding their hats awk- wardly and uneasily. They were rough riders and straight shots, but this slen- der woman upset their nerves
 "We're about played out," Morgan said, ''the horses at least. He won't be likely to get far tonight" with sig hcant glance at the man nearest him, ''and we couldn't do much anyhow. It is going to be blacLer than pitch. If you don't mind our camping on the place-you don't look much like work, Mrs. Morse, but I'm not bad hand at a frying-pan myself"
 Certainly, gerasemen," with sweet est courtesy. "You know the way to the corncribs, and"-putting out pair of slender brown hands-'I'm not as helpless as look.''
 So she and Captain Morgan made coffee, fried bacon and baked biscuit, while the men fed their horses and ar ranged sleeping-pl places for themselves.
 Don't that beat any thing you ever saw in your life in the way of a wom- an?" one of them said after A lonp reconnaissance through the kitchen window. 'And there's Morgan" with awe in his voice, talking away to her as chipper as jay bird"
 They rode away in the gray of the morning. All day long she ministered to the man who had wrecked her life.

over, he and Bronson rode away iL pursuance of some of their horse-thief plans.
 They had not gone many minutes when there came the sharp chatter of a horses hoofs up to the door, and Bron- son flung himself out of the saddle.
 "Is it true?" he asked, eagerly.
 ''It is quite true," slowly and almost solemnly.
 "Oh, my darling"-he had her in his arms; she felt his tears on her face, his kisses on her lips-"what have done to deserve such happiness?"
 She chung to him then with little cry. 70, Frank, every thing failed me once. If that comes again shall die" He held her close against his breast. ''It shall never come again" he said, softly.
 And then in minute more he was gone.
 1 All of this out of doors, where any one might have seen and heard every word. But who was there to see ip 1 that wide, green, empty world? The silence was absolute. She stood listen ing to the clank of his horse little be- fore she went back into the house, think ing with a happy smile how the world had changed.
 She sat sewing the next day swing ing lazily in her low rocker. Sam Lee was pattering softly about on the bare boards of his kitchen floor. The south l wind sweeping through the wide-open 1 door tossed her hair about her fore head. Outside the green and snnny si- lence seemed rhythnical in its bound l lessness.
 A shadow fell across the doorway. Helen, looking up, saw a tall man standing there, clad in all respects as the other men of the region were. The wide hat, the blue flannel shirt with it's white ornamental stitchings, the jang- ling spurs and high riding boots were all common enough. But Helen's heart beat little faster as he addressed her after the stereotyped fashion:
 Are the bosses here?"
 "Both are on the range. They will not be home before night"
 She had risen to answer him, anc stood with her hands on the back of hel ,hair-a little paler than usual, and 6 growing look of terror in her widening eyes. He had not removed his hat, anG ais face was heavily bearded. They stood silent for little space. and ther he barred his head with sudden gesture
 Helen, don't you know me?"
 She neither cried out nor tainted, she stared at him with a fixed horror in hel face.
 "Yes," she said in dull sort of way
 you were Payne Morse."
 "Were? Do you take me for ghost No; I'm all alive. You don't ask me tt come in-no natter" crossing thu threshold-"no matter, I've something to say, and now's the best time to say it.
 He crossed the room and closed tht door that led to Sam Lees domain: sht stood watching him with bloodless fact , and staring eyes.
 Don't look so frightened, child. There was something of the old musica

one of the brief, tremendous storms of wind and rain peculiar to the latitude. Helen answered her brothers hail from the outer darkness, and opened the door to find him and one of the herders holding between them a motionless dead weight, and recognized tbe white face as Frank Bronson's.
 "Is he dead?" she asked, quietly.
 "I don't know; only stunned, fancy Set Sam Lee to heating water and rum maging our flannels. A tree fell as we were coming through the timber and knocked him out of his saddle What a mercy you are not of the screaming, fainting kind!"
 Harry was giving explanations and orders in sort of running accompani- ment that barely vailed his own anx- iety. Helen, pale, silent and helpful. obeyed implicitly. When Bronson opened his eyes at last, her face was the first he saw as his swimming vision steadied itself. He put out his hand and she laid hers within it. There was a good deal in the act-she was not a woman prodigal of such expressions. The heavy blue eyes opened with eager inquiry.

 He was out and about his business next day, though in rather a shalky fashion. All day Helen went about with half guilty, half happy strain of feeling on her heart. As the time came for his return she went and stood be- fore her glass, for the first time, per haps, in years, with a critical and anx- ious look at the reflection therein. She was too pale; sorrow and loss had left her face scared with their traces what had she to do with love? The fit of self-distrust left tremor in her man. ner that even Harry noticed.
 "I believe you are living back again, |" he said. "At this rate, Helen, you'll be schoolgirl again before you know it. !"
 Her lips quivered in a painful half smile. He plunged on:
 Did you ever see any one change SO, Frank? No, you are not living back; you are going to begin over again. my girl" and he stopped and kissed her.

 For one minute she laid her head against his shoulder, then with a sob she turned away and entered the house.
 After all, human everyday life is not a favorable background for tragedy. The awful happenings drop beneath the current and the nipples run over them, and half the time we forget them unless it happens to be our own hearts that are aching. Before forty-eight hours had passed the little household was go- ing on in it's old way apparently.

There was little talk-they could not venture on that. He slept like a worn- out man, who makes the most of his chances in safety. When night came again and again Sam Lee left the house alone, clad in Harry Tryon's garments and riding Rebecca Payne Morse made his way to signal station on the rail- way, ten miles away.
 "Good-bye," he said. "You'u not be likely to see or hear of me again. For your sake it's almost a pity that they didn't make an end of me.'' Don't say that, Payne. We'll live out our lives. Yours might have such chances if you chose to use them" ''Good-bye, my girl" He stopped and kissed her cheek. ''If could go back again-well, we wouldn't get married" Harry Tryon came back three or four days later. He knew about the dispers- ing of the gang, and the hanging of two or three of it's members. And Payne?" Helen asked. "They told me he escaped" not meet 1 ing her eyes. Then she told him.
 'By love, Helenl They never sus- pected, that's certain. After that wonder if there's any thing you can't stand. Listen: Payne Morse Is dead" He had risen, and was holding both her hands as she sat before him. 'I know it's true," he said, earnestly. ''I saw him. He was taken out of the train at the junction where I waited. Died of heart disease, they said, without struggle or word" l He spoke slowly, as If to give her l time to take in the significance of his words. Her face whitened slowly, and as he finished she dropped at his feet In faint like death.
 She was married in the dim twilight in the old church at home, with just her mother and sisters near her, and her father watching her with softened eyes. The organ murmured in full, soft chords, but there were no strangers, no bridal display. As she stepped out into the sweet spring evening the young, faint crescent of the moon met her eyes.
 ''Its the beginning" Frank whispered softly, bending down that she alone might hear.

 The child used to know,
 Whose face still remember,

 In thy sweet meadowlands,
 With blue and purple violets
 In both her baby handsf O how used to lead her,

arm hole of his vest, threw his weight on
his left leg. poised his head on one side and
pointed with his rattan at the picture
directly opposite.

"and don't suppose it's in the catalogue,
anyhow. Horrible daub isn't it? 1t has
no perspective, no chiaro-oscuro, and it's
all out of drawing. There is no tone about
it. The values are altogether wanting,
there is total absence of technique in the

Died Like His Father.

Another chapter IN the history Of strange
condolences was opened by the discovery
of the body Of Alexander Dunn, promi-
nent citizen Of Trenton, y. J., in creek
near that city. His hat was found on the
bank Of the stream, which gave rise to the
suspicion that be had committed suicide.
John B. Wilson put an end 70 ali doubt
by discovering the body. Deceased had
been missing three weeks
twas then recalled that Dunn had fol-
lowed exactly IN the foorsteps OF bis father.
