M'CLEARY Is RELIEVED.
The Militia Takes Responsibility
From Him.

PITTsBURG, Pa. July 11.-Sheriff Nc
Cleary was in much better spirits today.
and was under the impression that the
Homestead matter was in fair way to
settlement.
''My course through this whole matter
has been to save bloodshed," he
said. II saw from my first
days experience that even if
it had been possible to secure posse of
100 to 500 it would have been worse than
murder for me to take them there, as l
am satisfied they would have been shot
down. Those men were very deter
mined. If l had compelled our best
business men to go or to prosecute them,
it would not have been right. as was
satisfied that they would have been
killed. An armed and disciplined set
of men will be able to cope with this
matter, but it was far beyond the civil
authorities"

tonight perfect peace and order pre-

almost deserted. and this busy manu-

in the reception ceremonies to the mil
itia, who are expected to march into the
city at that time.
The bands held rehearsal this even

take that pitiless curve, and that Satan

1t turned to dust.
He shuddered and passed his hand
across his eyes. Had he been led here
to receive mute warning2 Weakened
by long-neglected illness, weary with
incessant toll, he could not shake of
this idea as he would have done
once. 1t would haunt him sleeping and
waking with fear that he had never
known till now.
And was 1t, after all, merely morbid
fancyP So great are the possibilities Of
good and evil within us that every ono
may carry about in his soul the future
angel or the future fiend. The man
who by his own will has been 'left to
himself may well be startled II he gets
glimpse Of that which self may be-
come. That God does sometimes vouch-
safe these glimpses Of the possible we
cannot doubt. "There, but for His
grace, goes John Bradford" cried the

Michael, as he left the room. "A walk
through the old village will calm my
nerves, and insure quiet night"

He decided that he would not stay In
an inn II he could End other accommo-
dation. There were two inns in East
neon, one new and the other old. OF
the new one he knew little, and the old
one was kept by Aaron Fenlake's faith
er and was far too humble an abode for
Mr.. Chase. Moreover, he did not want
to have any talk with old Fenlake
about his son.
And then he remembered the Bel
thorpes, father and son, who lived In
the old courthouse. They were we'll
to-do farmers, and young Belthorpe had
noticed Michael's cleverness and taken
liking to him in the past days. Young
Belthorpe had married and was master
Of the old house now. Michael thought
that he would write and ask II he
might be his guest.
He wrote, and speedily received re-
ply. It was Belthorpe's cousin who
wanted to buy Chase's old cottage and
garden, and the farmer was willing
enough to renew his acquaintance with
a man who had risen in the world.
Michael was sure Of comfortable quar-
ters and hearty welcome.
The history Of Eastmeon is a lost his
tory. The antiquary comes TO visit the
church, which contains the quaintest of
fonts (unequaled even by the one in
Winchester cathedraD, and seldom.
leaves the place without paying visit
to the old courthouse and inspecting
all its chambers. Many Of these rooms
are falling into decay; many are never
used at all, but everywhere there are
distinct traces OF monastic building.
Michael remembered the place very
well. He had never been romantic, but
he had wondered sometimes whether
any tragedies had ever been enacted
within those massive walls, and under
those old arches, springing from
crowned and mitred heads. It was a
surprise TO him TO find that the house
had changed but little since his boy
hood.
The farmer and his wife received him
cordially. It was still early In the
evening when he arrived, and the old
rooms were cheerful with sunshine.
But he was tired, the short railway jour
ney had wearied him, and even the FIVE.
mile drive from Petersfeld seemed TO

have done him small good, although
the air was fresh and sweet.
His hostess conducted him TO his
room with apologies, but he scarcely
heard what she was saying. Some
necessary repairs had been going on in
the upper part of the house; the guest
chamber" was unfit for use, and a
smaller room had been got ready hast
lily for Mr.. Chase.
There was nothing TO complain Of in
the room save its small size. 1t was
furnished with a quaint old bedstead,
daintily draped with fresh white dimi-
ty hangings, and everything else was
old-fashioned and pretty in its way.
The window looked out over the vii
lage and its Unfolding downs, softly
gilded now with the first glory of sun
set. There was no ordinary ceiling;
overhead rose roof like church-roof,
the arches springing from corbels, sup
ported by those carved heads which
were to be found in most Of the upper
apartments OF the courthouse.
For few seconds Michael stood at
the open window and let the cool air
breathe upon his worn face. The scent
Of violets foated up from the old gar
den; the bell began TO ring for evening
prayer, and sleeping memories awoke
with the perfume and chime. How
sweet and familiar all this had been
once! He thought he had forgotten the
past, but here it was within him, fresh
and living still.
As he turned from the window his eye
fell on q sculptured head, Just then
illuminated by the evening light. It
was crowned in kingly fashion, and the
royal circlet rose above massive brow,
and a cruel, clever face. The nose was
straight and delicate; amustache hung
over the mouth, but did not hide the
firm outlines Of the thin lips that were
curved into faint but moclring smile.
The sharp contour Of the cheek and
the sunken temples told of wasting
mental toll. A man with such face
might have been versed in all the wiles
of statecraft; he would have worked
with his scheming brain but never with
his hands. He might have raised ar
mics, and directed their advance upon
the foe, but he would never had led
them on to battle with his own sword.
It was face that could have looked on
unmoved while men and women were
tortured, and even the soft western
light that shone upon it with gentle
glow could bring out no sign Of tender
ness or nobility.
Yet somewhere, whether lately or in
the far past he could not tell, Michael
had seen a face that resembled this.
There was something familiar in the
chiseling Of the features and the up
right line between the brows. He stood
and gazed at It with curious feeling Cf
repulsion and strange dread. He was
afraid of the face; absurd as II seems,
he felt that it was moclSing him, and
defying him TO find that other face that
was like it.
Then, with sudden impulse, he
walked TO the glass, and looked at him
self. There was no mistalsing the like
ness now, that crowned human fend
had featGes like his own. In that
carven stoiie he saw all that was evil In
his own visage deepened and intensi-

The farmer gladly assented to his
giests proposal that they should tako
breath of fresh air before dinner.
There was but one way Of approaching
the courthouse, and that was the old
way, across the farmyard and through
the white gate. They went out, past
the meek cows and cluclsing hens, and
found themselves In the lane by the
churchyard. The days work was end

changing a word with the farmer "a

at his companion. Not one Of them
recognized him, although he remem-
bered many of their faces well enough.
Perhaps prosperity changes people
more than poverty does, perhaps the
successful city life is harder than the
rough country life. Anyhow no ono
suspected that this pinched and enact
ated stranger was the brightlooking
lad who had lived amongst them few
years ago.
Once, as they passed the open door Of
a cottage, Michael felt strange thrill
OF self reproach. A pleasant-faced
woman, between sixty and seventy, sat
sewing In a wooden armchair, with
crutch on each side. She looked up and
nodded to Belthorpe.
"How ate the pains this evening, Mrs.

Longevity Of Birds.

II is well-lnown fact that birds en-
Joy much longer terms Of life than do
mammals. Hesiod and Pliny both tell
us Of rocks that lived to the patriarchal
age Of 700 years, and that the average
life Of raven was 240 years. How far
this was correct we cannot determine.
1t is well known that they outlive man.
While swans have been known TO live
200 years, chaffinches and nightingales
have been kept in confinement for 70
years. Girardin tells. us that he had a
heron for 80 years, and that he knew Of
two storlss that built their nests in the
same place for 40 years.

We notice in some of our dem ocratic
exchanges they are claiming that il
was Il republican Supreme court that
knocked out the outrageous gerry.
mander of the democratic legislature
in Wisconsin. This is not the case.
The court of that state is composed OF
three democratic judges and two re-
publican, but the gerrymander was SO
| unfair, that even all the democratic
| judges condemned it. and the decision
was by unanimous bench. To show
how Unfair it was we will just instance
two counties. La Crosse county, re-
publican, with population of SO, SOL,
was given only one member of the
assembly, while Manitowoo county,
Democratic, with population of 81,
361, or 1440 less than La Crosse. was
given three members of the assembly

the only object being to so district the
state as to secure the election of a
democratic United States senator. The
democratic papers are making a great
howl about the bill before the Ohio
legislature re-districting the congress
sional district of that state, so that only
five districts are given to the Demo
Gratis while the Republicans have thlr-
teen sure and good chance in three
others, but even this is better than the
Democratic arrangement in that
State, whereby the Republicans with a
majority in the State Of over 20, 600
only have seven out of twenty-one
congressman. The present bill, which
is so strongly condemned, is much
more favorable to the Democrats, for
should they secure 90, coo majority in
the State they would have greater
proportion of the congressional dele
cation. But of all disreputable gerry
manders in the history of the nation
that recently perpetrated by the Dem
ocratic legislature of Missouri excels
them all. At the last presidential
election in that State the Democrats
cast 261, Gas votes TO 236.253 by the
Republicans, yet the party that is
