that the blow was coming, and had spent
20 much ener ~ in worrying over IL and In
trying to pla e himself ri4ht that on the
day the ammo Incement was made he was
too sick to b, seen by any one at his home,
and it was stated at the house that he had
then been coiifined to his room for some
days
Since then he has not recovered, and
when four suits were recently brought
against him by the company to recover
the amount of his alege shortage, the
shock probably caused a relapse. which,
owing TO his advanced years, he was un-
able to withstand.
Mr.. Washburn was a native Of Liver

addition to having held the Office of treas
urer of the Old Colony road for 4S years.

That SO? How different from you.
u strength seems to be in your

They halted, faced about and looked
at each other. "Billings,' said Pods
lev, "itdoes seem to me that we have
lived in hatred of each other long
CROUCH to come to some sort of sensi-
bic agreement. I know what you feel
by contemplating what l feel myself.
So long as we both live there is no real
Happiness for either of Us. Why this
rs neither Of US can tell, but it Is a fact.
And now can't we come to some sort

That's true" Podsley agreed. And,
to show you the interest / take In the
matter, I would n lch rather that you
would be the one 20 die"
THAT Is natural, and is therefore
commendable," said Billings. "At any
rate this thing can't go on much
longer, and we must, in consequence.
Ak up some sort Of scheme. Now let
me make a suggestion! We will draw

At twelve o'clock the next day they
met in the road. They came afoot.
''Before we enter into this little COM

ing in the woods. Billings took out
his confession. Il will be found hold
ing this in my hand" said he. Il have
left a copy Of it at home SO that there
will Oe no question about its genuine
ness"
He broke a vial against a tree and
said: Give me that" Podsley was
holding a vial In his hand. II say,
give me that and let's have this thing
over. Why don't you give It to me?"
Il will in my own good time. Mind
you, your life belongs to me. When I
call for it, you must, without a word
in objection, yield it up. / will see
you again. Good day"
Months passed and still Podsley
made no demand. Once at a picnic
Billings stood laughing with a party
of friends. Podsley approached n
taking out q vial slyly showed it to
Billings. Billings with equal slyness
took out a folded paper and showed 1t
10 Podsley.
Months passed. 1t was noticed that
Podsley was gayer than he had ever
been; and a friend who happened to
look into his Dom one night saw him
holding a small bottle in his clasped
hands, bending over it and laughing.
One day Podsley met Billings in the
road. They halted and Podsley took
out the vial. Billings took out the
confession.

land I didn't know that you were so
full Of the devil"
Podsley laughed again. "I am going
awav," he said, and when come back
want you. Good-by for a time"
Two years passed. It was runored
that Podsley had been killed in the
Black Hills. There was no cause to
doubt the rumor. An old man from
the far west said that he had seen him
die. This was three months after he
had left home. Billings was free He
married the girl who had once brought
him a gourd OF water.
1t was Christmas morning. Billings
was sitting by his FIRE. His wife was
hanging evergreens about the room.
Some one shouted at the gate. Bill

WHY, what's the matter, dear? his
wife asked. She had seen him stagger

A Horse In = Trance.

The Baltimore Herald tells a re-
markable story of a horse that was
five days in a trance. A few days
ago Farmer Hubbard, who lives
near Baltimore, went TO his stable
in The morning to feed his horse,
and found The animal in great suf.
ierng. Thinking that the air
would benefit her led her out OF
The stable, when she fell over on
The ground, and after a time, 10 all
appearance, brealhed her last. Ho
hauled her body away to remote
part of the farm, and piling some
brush over it, left it 10 the dispos-
al Of nature. Five days after he
was surprised TO see a horse graz
ing in his pasture. He went 10 see
how the strange animal got into
his field, and almost paralyzed TO
perceive that it was his faithful old
Bess that he had cast out for The
crows. She was rather worse for
her experience, but lacked a good
deal of being dead. He approach.
ed her; and she evidently recog-
nized him, and submitted quietly
10 be led by The forelock TO the
barn. The farmer called his wife
to Identity the horse, which she
did, and then he hurried off 10 the
place ewhere he had deposited the
supposed corpse, 10 make sure That
he was not deceived. He found
The brush, with which he had COW
cred her, scattered about, but the
boGy was not there. OLD Bess had
evidently risen from the dead, or
had never been dead at all.

There are women very large and fat and red
There are women who are married,
There are women who have tarried,
There are women who are talkless-bu
they're dead.
