him and saw Father Grimes sunk down
in a heap, with his head fallen forward
upon his bosom. Perhaps he thought
the old man dead-at least he had
caught the bullet meant for himself.
He hesitated moment, looked around
the horizon, and then, moved by sudden
fear, walked rapidly away through the
stunted trees beyond the sand. This
tale chronicles no further tho wander
ings of the assassin. He never returned.
Father Grimes slowly raised his head,
by and by pressed his hand to his side
and tried to rise. After awhile they
came and bore him to his cabin and
placed him upon his bed, for i'll news
travels quickly, and the curiosity of the
hard community had quickly hurried a
crowd to tho spot. While he lay quietly
and looked upward through the cabin
roof, calm and placid, the post surgeon
came, and the commandant, and even the
chaplain, and the crowd gathered at the
outer door, only parting to permit the
passage of another burden which was
borno there by chance or q fancied con-
nection with Grimes and his daughter
and laid upon a low bench beside the
wall crying murder through the hush
with its white uncovered face.
They questioned the old man, and
brokenly and at intervals he told them
all he knew No. no; not all, for his
mind seemed preoccupied, and at inter
walls he stopped and lay very quiet look
ing at something they could not see and
smiling as he fcebly held ont his hand.
His carcworn and pain burdened life
was passing fast. That they knew and
were awed i'll the presence of that death
so many Of them had courted; so many
had pretended to scOrn. They watched
him and waited to hear if he had aught
else to tell. a little while passed in ST.
lence. Suddenly he opened his eyes
again and looked intcntly toward cor
ncr of tho room. 1t was not Il look Of
scrutiny, doubt or inquiry, but of happy
certainty and surprise. A faint flush
stole into the pallor of his old face, his
eye frightened, and he stretched forth
his hand and tried to lift himself upon
his arm. The doctor bent over him (the
chaplain had gone home again) and
asked him what he would have. Tho
old man turned with look of surprise
and pointed with his finger.
Don't you sec him?" he said.
II see no Cne-what is he like?''
II don't know. His face shines,
and he smiles. 1t is like him as he
walked on the sea. l wonder-you don't
suppose do you? he can have come SO
far for me?''
And death sealed upon the SCARED and
wrinkled face its last beatitude. They
went out and left him there and closed
the door. And as they passed through
the outer chamber they saw the girl sit
ting by the bench beside the wall and
looking with fearless eyes affair off while
she held i'll her lap her dead lovers cold
right hand.-Major James w. Steele in
Short Stories.

fencing does very well, but it is likely to
be broken by unruly animals, and once a

original wire fences of the west, is cruel,
