Trusty saw the CLEAN of rifle barrel not 10
feet away Then there was loud report
and he fell over with a Shrek, aud the for
mer "Trusty'-the man who was glad he
went TO the penitentiary because he learned
the shoemaker's trade-jumped out of the
underbrush and shouted, II claim the re-
wardi'
In the middle OF the night there was fu-
rious knocking on the outer gate of the
prison, and the Warden on hearing it said
to his wife, with tears rolling down his face
They've found him. No pardon for him
now-in for life"
The Warden went ont quickly with lam
tern, and soon there was brought into the
stone quadrangle Trusty, carried by two
men, and the eX-TruSty walking after him.
and behind him was the girl, weeping and
SObbing.
Il claim the rewardi' WAS the first thing
the ex-TTusty said.
1T is the price of blood" answered the
Warden, in loud voice.
1t was not necessary to hear the doctors
verdict that Trusty's hours were few. The
pris on surgeon had him taken into the hos
pital, where the Warden anu his wife, the
doctor and the chaplain and the yellow
haired girl were all around his bed. He
asked forgiveness, feebly, and motioned to
the Warden's wife TO have a care Of the
poor creature who had brought him to that
pass. and who hung over him with wild
looks. Take care of her" he said, with
difficulty, she's good wOman-she didn't
know-she didn't understaud-it was all nv
fault" The Warden at this took from his
pocket big document with red seals.
That's your pardon from the Governor
1t came this morning. One day more-only
one day more"
The Warden stopped and sat down, cover
Ing his face with his hands. The conviets
eyes lightened and then grew wide with
horror at his fate. One day! One day He
lay perfectly still for a few moments, look
ing at the pardon lying On his bed, and
then. with a gasp that seemed the last
throb OF broken heart. he said
"0nly one more day-hut it's iust--it's
iust-GOd's will be doae"-and never
breathed again.
The Warden leaned oyer and gently closed
the convlcts eyes. The yellow haired girl,
in an agony OF mute despair, fell into the
arms of the Warden wife. who said: "But
his soul-his soul is safe!"-M. E. S., in
New York Times.

Finally. let me tell you what "his former
associates" are going to do if this unholy
butchering of Bret Harte is kept up by the
sensational branch of the San Francisco
press. We are going to appeal to the
friends in the mining camps, in the grain
counties and the cow counties and there ia
not an editor among them all but will stand
in with US and against San Francisco sensa-
tiOnaliSm, and we will send Bret Harte to
the Senate. oh. smile, will you2 Well,
stranger things happen every day. And
you think this thing over little, and 1t will
soon appear to you to be as just and right
and proper as it is practicable
No, it will not contribute anything at all
to Bret Harte, but it will contribute some
thing to the Senate and great deal to US,
besides it would be some relief to the con-
science of the State in the final round up"
of the stars.
Look at Disraeli, Gladstone all the great
leaders in Europe, writing great books,

The "Robitaille" Is another one of the
capote shapes which are very pretty. In
the one illustrated the crown is covered
with block Brussels net and the brm with
finely plated black lace. Small daisies
form the floral decoration. There are loops
and ends of ribbon and the inevitable
strings in the back.
The principal characteristic Of the hats of
the period are meaningless twists, dents
and trimmings-that is. they seem mean
ingless until they are seen upon the head OF
just the right woman. Then they are seen
TO be the most becoming, daring and de-
lIcious of combinations, both in color and
style.
For wear with serge gowns straw edi-
tions of the English walking hat so popular
in the winter are seen in blues and browns.
They are not so pretty as in the softer felts,
but are rather fetc hing. One was of rough
blue straw. low, deeply dented in the crown
and tightly rolled on the sides. 1t was
trimmed with soft blue surah ribbon, folded
about the brim and knot on the left side.

JAPANESE FANS.

Glancing over the fan market, says New

to be observed that at this time Of year the
cheap fan has its term of appreciation. The
delicate and expensive lace and feather

evening functions, such as occur mostly in
winter, in summer are little in demand.

another had an inch stripe Of pale-blue and

powdered with tiny spots in white, and the
white with green. These are intended to be
worn at summer dances, garden parties and
entertainments Of all sorts, and they are no
longer the exclusive property Of the debu-

BRET HARTE DEFENDED.

California Cannot Do Without Bret Harte.
He Has Carried Her Fame to All
Quarters of the Globe.
Written for THE MORNING CALL.

Under the above title a SKETCH with
out signature, was recently published
In a prominent San Francisco daily.
The day of its appearance two of Bret
Harte's old friends" drove up to The
Heights. They were not amiabe. Their
mission was to persuade me to answer that
article at enee. / refused TO do so. but
finally promised that if no one else stepped
forward to say a word for the absent man,
who has said so much for California, l
would at the end of a month at least put in
an appearance. And so, unpleasant as the
task is. l shall say few things for man
who disdans to say anything for himself.
Understand distinctly, 1 have no author
ity to speak for Bret Harte. He is not my
friend he never was We differ radically
in our views Of life. He likes leisure, lux
ury and kid gloves; ] like toll, hard-fsted,
naked-handed toll, and believe that people
will perish very soon if it surrenders to his
mode of life. But on one thing believe
we fully agree, and that is the old-fash-
ioned English idea of fair play. So here
goes.
The bold, big headlines this article about
Bret Harte starts off thus: ''Why the writer
is not liked by his former companions"

More than that, l think you will find
from this that he was a man who was al

And | think you will now begin 20 see
that Bret Harte is not particularly dlsliked
by at least three of "bis former cOmpan-
ions" Admitting his treatment of Miss

to have been as stated, we see nothing in
it worse than eaTelessness.

FIRED FROM THE TRAIN.

Damages Asked by . Tourist to the Chicago
Convention.
Isadore Bowers yesterday entered suit
against the Pennsylvania Company oper-
ating the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chi
cago Railroad for $1,000 Bowers says he
went to the National Democratic Conven-
tion at Chicago. On June 20 he bought a
ticket from Pittsburg to Chicago and re-
turn, intending to 60 to the convention.
He was not told the ticket would have to
be stamped in Chicago, nor did be know
that such a requirement was printed
on it. He went, and on June u
started to come home. He passed the
gatekeeper at the depot and mis- ticket was
taken by the Pullman car conductor.
When 30 miles out Of Chicago, however,
the conductor of the train put him off be-
cause the ticket had not been stamped. He
had to spend the night in the station, and as
it was cold and his clothes thin he took cold
and has been i'll ever since. Had he not
been able to borrow money, he says, he
would have been compelled to tramp back
to Chicago. He now wants 81 900 compen-
sation.
