evinced intense pity for Zwald's marital

Illicit love, and Zwald and Mrs. Schelt
planned the murder Of Mrs. Zwald, who
meanwhile had Joined her husband in the
Minnesota town. They gave her a large
dose Of poison in a whisky toddy, sum

did not administer the medicine pre-
scribed. The woman died in great agony.
Mrs. Schelt did not profit much by this
crime, for Zyald became conscience strick-

six months aiterward. He arrived at
Wayne, Neb., in 1885, and worked as a
iuborer TO support his family. Here he
was introduced to a widow, whom he liked
so well that he married her. Before mar
riage the second Mrs. Zwald was a nice,
even tempered woman; afterward she
turned out IA vixen, smoking a pipe all day
long and abusing her stepchildreh un-
m~ercifully. Zwald became exasperated by
her conduct, and one night he smothered
her with a pillow and then hung her body
from a rafter in the barn. He told the
n%eighbors he had quarreled with his wife,
and every one believed she committed sui

Zwald remained around Wayne for a
year and a half, and then his troubled con

his children to California, and his steady,
religious habits made him respected. His
conscience was still ut work, however, N

Inc trlal came, when the young men
failed to agree, and it was resolved to
sever the family. Each of them was
willing that the other should take every
thing else in the fiat if they would give
Dick to him. But that was not to be
thought of for a moment, and the young
men kept together for a month longer
than they intended in order not to be
separated from their pet.
Finally one of the young men DELHI
erately carried Dick away and kept him
in hiding for several months, and guard
ed him as carefully as a miser watches
over his money. Then he rented the fiat
in Sixteenth street, and a few nights ago
invited his former companions to see
Dick. AS he ushered his guests into tine
hall they were greeted with "a burst of
music. They recognized the voice of
Dick. The moment they entered the
room where the little songster was he
flew as near them as he could and cooed
softly and ruffled his feathers gently.
There may be persons in the world
who would seoul the suggestion of a
bird remembering faces for so long a
time, but there is not the slightest doubt
that Dick remembered the young men
and that he was welcoming them with
all his heart. During all the time they
were in the fiat Dick sang all the old
tunes. He stopped only when one of
them spoke to him, and her he would
be silent and cock his little head on one
side and peep intelligently.
The young men readily accepted an
invitation to remain all night, and the
next morning before they were ont of
bed they heard the magic music of the
little songster. At breakfast he hopped
ON The table ard Topped in all their
glasses of water in order to let them see
that all were lean to him. Before the
three visitors left the man who had stolen
DICK from them made each one promise
that he would not attempt to steal the
bird.-New York Sun.
