CHAPTER VII.
PARsON TILNEY.

In day or two there arrived at the
camp of the boomers a lean, sad faced
man, clad in homespun. He carried q
pair of weather stained saddlebags on
his shoulder, and he inquired for Arizony
Duckett. When she came before him,
he surveyed her in a kind of melancholy
admiration.
You don't know me, l reckon" he
said sadly. Yet how should We? All
yes-ah, yes-how should ye?"
No. l can't say as I've ever seen you
before" she replied, regarding him curl
ously. yet vaguely touched, for he looked
pathetically lonely and forsaken. There
was also a half distracted, wondering
air about him, as Of one long imprisoned,
suddenly let loose amid strange sights
and sounds, with only old memories left
as a familiar token.
You're just like your mother was, he
said, taking her haud-''just like her %
year ago. The very day before she and
your father went away she looked at me.
just as You DO nOw-only. a little softer
perhaps. Arizony, child, can't you think
who am?'
Something like hidden tears she felt
within her eyes, though why she hardly
knew. So fondly, so gently he stroked
her hand; so fondly, so gently his faded
eyes seemed to seek recognition in hers
that, almost without thought, an intui-
tiOn came

ton came.

er's old sweetheart" The old man nod
ned gratefully. And you married her
at last. | was glad to hear of it; to feel
that she had some one to care for her
back there"
Something in the parsons eye here
caused her topause and regard him keen
ly. His head dropped and his lip trem-
bled. Suddenly she seized his hand.
Where is she?" asked the girl anxious
ly. Are you here alone? You look sad

mother"
Didn't you get my letter." he re-
turned, greatly shocked. Il writ ali
about it. She wanted me to go to you
so-here l am"
But mother-where is she?"
In heaven, hope. Don't cry, my
child. The good Lord has taken her.
She died happy and a-prayin for you"
Arizony burst into tears. They were
alone in the cabin of Chickasaw John.
While TIE parsOn soothed and counseled,
it required some effort on his part to
Danish perverse fancy that this was
Rinnie-his Rinnie, as she had leaned
upon him fourth of a century before.
Yet his Rinnie was moldering into primal
dust 800 miles away, under the shadow
of her native mountains.
Il ought to have gone back with her, I"
sobbed Arizony. she begged me to go.
She wasn't strong, and this climate
didn't suit her toward the last. But
Burl-he wouldn't agree. reckon she
told you about Burl. He wouldn't say
yes and seems like l have to do a good
deal as he says Not that I'm really
afraid Of him. Arizony raised her head
in weakly defiant way, but it fell de-
jectedly again. 1t amt that altogether,
but he overpersuades me somehow. Now
I'm all alone-except for Burl-
mo, child, you have me. I've come
all the way here to look after you, to
take you back if you'll go. 1t was your
mothers wish"
"Burl won't let me. know. We're
to be married soon. Mothers death may
put it off. But he'll want me; don't you
forget that"
'Do you truly love this MANI"
The parson gently raised her face and
looked into her eyes. His own were
grave, tender and soicitous.
Eyes, love him. used to think it
was something else that held me, but
now l know it must be love-"
How do you know it, Arizony?"
81 can hardly tell you how. Perhaps
it's because he is so masterful. He is SO

and looks up to him here. always have
to do as he says. If didn't love him,

are finally opened, there1l be such
scramble as you never heerd of before.

She made no reply in words, but as
before appeared to shrink within his
arms. Of late much of her old time dash
and independence had vanished. In its
place wan, half frightened, anxious
hesltancy of look and manner appeared
with greater frequency. Like the other
boomers, Arizony seemed to be growing
the worse for wear both in BODY and
mind.

children He jerked his thumb toward
a red knob. where his auditors knew
that two bleak little graves were kept
bare by the prairie winds. Il tell you,
boys, when We have to slip over the line
by night like thieves and stake ont and
crawl and hide, and all long of these
bluecoats as lives on the COVER ment and
stands 'twixt us and our rights, while
our families starve-it just about makes
a man ready for war, murder, anything.
Sometimes don't keer much which it is
either"
These sentiments met with the usual
approval. Burl swore that he would
rather fight a soldier than eat any time.
The general opinion was that something
ought TO be done, and that soon, though
no one seemed to know exactly what.
Something severe and decisive, however;
endurance was getting to be much too
tame. Besides. it was useless; it did uo
good whatever, except to their enemies
vaguely typifed by all in authority.
There's Arizony nOw," said Chicka-
saw John, nodding at the girl who, with
her eye upon him and her hand upon
Burl's arm, had alone given no sign of
assent to these varied sanguinary senti-
ments. Look what she has put up
with. What little money she brought
here all gone and more besides, as she
got from Texas through her mother.
Hasn't she hid out, and lodged, and
slipped around, and been drug back
here-and all for what. gentlemen?'
Chickasaw John glarGd upon his audi
tors as if he felt sure they had the an
swer somewhere and was determined to
drag it out of them, willy nilly. But
apparently abandoning the idea in sheer
disgust, he snapped his fingers disdain-
fully.
why argy the thing? Hits too plain;
that's what it is. If was her and Burl,
I'd marry, and I'd kill a soldier or two
stead of havin a dinner. Then I'd take
a weddin trip to Washin'ton and give
the president my blessin."
This luridly satirical conception of
affairs so tickled ChiCkasaw Johns fancy
that wintry smile chased itself over his
haggard face. Burl, tightening Arizo-
ny's arm within his own, laughed aloud.
MY sentiments to 7, he whispered
to her. You must marry me, Arizony.
If don't get no land, must have you
sure"
His manner was more insistent than
loving. She drew little from him, but
as her eye caught his compelling, down
ward glance she seemed to shrink rather
than nestle against him and sighed in a
way that expressed resignation rather
than willingness. He pulled her aside,
and while the stream of complaint and
vituperation against the powers that be
brawled on he unfolded a new plan he
had conceived. Burl was ever cOnceiv-
ing new plans, the usual futility of
which apparently acted upon him only
as further stimulant to his inventive

she have laid hold of anything tangible

A Hearty welcome.

One of the most enjoyable events of
the season, took place at the residence
of NJ. M. Cushing on the evening of the
goth inst, in honor of his son Milo and
family, who are visiting relatives and
friends in this vicinity. About twenty
couples assembled to bid them welcome
to their old home and friends. A
bountiful repast was served consisting of
al! the delicacies of the season. The time
was passed in visiting and dancing until
the not very small hours of the morning,
all departed with wishes for many
happy returns of the occasion. Mrs.
Milo Cushing is daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Floyd, of the firm of Floyd &

And their children. two fine handsome
boys, came in for their share of the usual
comments; that one was like the Flovds
and one like the Cushings; they are
very much like their parents, and the

graduated. Especially tie grand
parents have just cause for pride in the
fine appearance of their children and

Few Words From One of the Wasco
Yeomen.
. TYGH VALLEY, Or, Jan. 22.-[To the
members of the assembly. Our people
are very }nxious for the change to pay
all cour y officers salaries instead Of
fees. There is no reason why the SER
much less cost to taxpayers. Pay them
good salaries, not too much though; for
there is plenty of good ability in the
county very anxious to fill the offices.
The clamor that is source of so much
annoyance to the better class of people
at every nominating convention is al
most entirely over "who shall be county
clerk and sheriff." all for the reason
that the taxpayers are paying from two
to three times as much for the service in
these two offices as it is worth. OF
course the present incumbents in the
Offices will insist that the present fee
system barely rewards the officers for
services rendered and point to the fact
that none of the officers retire rich !;
but it is obvious to every close-observing
man that if economy prevailed with the
incumbents of these offices, as it does
with any successful business man, they
would all leave the county Offices with a
nice stake laid up. Business men are
working for very small margins. Farm
ers are having to rustic to live at all
while the clerks and sheriffs through
the state receive the compensation they
now do. Taxpayers will kick, and they
ought to. Gentlemen, don't forget that
the people expect you TO put these
officers on salaries. ANON.

1t will be remembered that ON the
24th of November last Willie Virgins
lost his life by drowning in Snake river,
and friends and relatives living in The
Dalles were called to Lewiston on ac-
count of the accident. The remains
were not then recovered; but the cold
river at last yielded up the body on the
18th. 1t had been caught in China
mans fishing wheel, and the description
answered that of Willie Virgins. Mr..
Lot Wiggins and son Ed. Immediately
went to the place which is about thirty
miles below Lewiston, and returned
with the body on Thursday, which was
easily recognizable. Funeral services
were held at the Episcopal church in
Lewiston on the Goth, and all that was
mortal of poor Willie Virgins was ten
derly laid to rest in the city cemetery.
