yond the back parlor; for night after
night Mr. Darrell sat there weighing the
gold in the scales or counting it, or
shoveling it into the bags-clink, clink,
clink"
Here Bowser paused, and, taking his
own bag of gold out of his pocket,
placed it ON the table before him.
Scroggie was sitting in an attentive
attitude; but his eyes were never raised
from the fire; and worn look, which
l had not observed at first, had settled
upon his face. Bowser moved nearer
toward US, coming within the circle OF
light under the lamp and, emptying
out of his bag quantity of bright
sovereigns, he continued in an impress
sive voice:
''One night, he told us-"one night,
between eleven and twelve o'clock, the
cashier is seated in the iron room under
a shaded lamp-as l am seated now
weighing the gold as usual and filling
the bags, one after another entering
them in the bullion-book, tying then
up, and casting them aside. He il
deeply engrossed in his occupation L
he thinking honest, industriou
cashier-is he thinking as he look
upon this glitter and listens to tn
clinking and ringing of this gold, wha

ness passing through his mind-wh
: shall say but that, for her sake, he
/ wishing that the sovereigns We're hi
own? He is working, working now
solely for her, and if he is dreaming o
riches, what more natural on earth
But, whatever his thoughts may be, h
is so absorbed that he hears no cat-lils
footstep moving stealthily toward thu
spot where he weighs the gold-clink
clink, clink-he sees no shadow eros
the light in the outer room, within
short distance of where he stands; h
hears nothing, observes nothing, unit
an arm is uplifted swiftly behind him
and stitled cry escapes him-no tim
for more. He falls, beaten and crushe

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-06-04

IN this nervous, dreamy condition my
thoughts became so completely sepa- |
rated from my immediate surroundings |
that when, with a suddenness that APP |
palled me, the dead silence of the night
was disturbed by prolonged and
dreadful shout, my heart seemed to
have ceased to beat and my limbs to
be paralyzed with terror. The impulse
was strong within me to spring to my
feet But although my brain vas re
markabiy active, strange to say my
body was dead to all sense of volition
Yet, although l could not move my
head, objects which passed within the
limits of my vision were not even
clouded, but distinctly defined; and
there l saw, with the pale and haggard
face of one who is haunted, my old
school-fallow Scroggie. His eyes were
wide open, and seemed to express an
irresistible fascination for some beckon-
ing spirit Presently he spoke in whis-
pers, as though addressing this phan-
tom of his brain, but in voice so low
that not a word reached my ear. At
last he looked about as though the
shadow had vanished; though his
breath fell more quickly from
his lips, and mis- right arm now
stiffened from the shoulder, and
he grasped, in fancy, some heavy
weapon which he was handling with a
look of dogged energy and resolutions;
his face had changed into the express
sion of demon, dark as night; and he
seemed to be cropping his way, as il
Olind, and stopping in a listening atti-
tude, and then cropping ON again; but
with one over-mastering purpose
Suddenly he raised his arm, and, with
his imaginary weapon aimed at the air
blow so full of concentrated force
that he staggered under it, uttered a
low cry, and fell heavily to the ground
Then, and only then, the power to
move came back to me, and | sprang to
his assistance. He was lying ON his
back, gasping; he had become as black
1 in the face as if he had been trans
formed into veritable demon. With
/ great difficulty | succeeded in loosening
his collar; each moment, it seemed to
me- must be his last.
| raised him from the floor and placed
him on the sofa, and slowly signs of
consciousness returned. After staring
around the room in a strange, be-
wildered fashion, his eyes settled upon
my face.
Are you all right now?'
He put his hand to his forehead, and
look Of pain passed over his face such
as shall never forget.
"All right" said he, "all right. 1t
was only dream"
Then he again turned his weary face
toward the wall, muttering, "only a
dream" and then he again fell asleep.
AT this moment the fame of the read
ing lamp huttered, like a heart and ex-
pired, and l was left in darkness. The
fire had burned out, and the midnight
air had a ghostly chill in it as it touched
my cheek; and my pulse, beating
loudly, sounded in my ear like ghostly
whisperings that seemed to warn me
that l was alone in my chambers with
the man who had murdered the father
of Alice Darrell.

When Bowser had uttered these words
there was a silence between us for some
minutes; Scroggie was the first even to
move in his chair. | had refilled his
glass during the last pause in the narra-
tive, and he now stretched out his hand
hastily and lifted the tumbler to his lips
and dyank it off as if it were water. His
hand shook violently as he placed the
empty glass on the mantelshelf. | had
often seen his hand tremble; indeed it
was seldom quite steady; but he had
never exhibited excessive nervousness
before.
We'll, said he, without looking
round.
There is not much more to tell, "
said Bowser 1T was evidently a col
fusion between the bank porter and
sailor-or at least a man that looked
very like one-seen lettering about in
the neighborhood of public house, on
the night previous to the one on which
this tragedy occurred The porter was
arrested tried, and sentenced to penal
servitude for life.
And the sailor ?" said Scroggie.
Escaped. He made off with bags
containing large sum of gold, and he
has never been heard of since"
With these words Bowser rose from
his seat and began to pace up and down
the room, playing with his bag of gold
in an excited manner,
Yes" said he, presently, 1.-The muir
derer escaped. But l have sworn to
] hn
derer of her father before l marry Alice
Darrell. That is the clause in our engage
ment If the villain is alive | will
ferret him out, hunt him down, and
bring him to Justice. For love Alice
Darrell more than my life, and for her
would run any risk. Mr.. Darrell was
NV friend. | honored him as much as
if he had been my own father.
He stopped, glanced around the room
with savage energy expressed IN his
face, and then, tiinging up the bag of
soverigns defiantly, he cried But the
clink of gold will some day awaken the
evil consciencel The man who has
committed this crime will betray him
self at last. His guilt will be branded
on his face, like an ugly scar, when he
hears the sound-clink, clink, clinl !
There is no escape. The conscience is
stronger than the manw
Again Bowser tossed up the bag of
gold, and paced the room, more excited
than ever

heavens sake be rationale To visit, as
you do, the lowest haunts in London

these men in the East End are moth
ing better is to expose your
self to real dangers. These sailors know
the sound of gold only too well. Som

robbed and murdered. And that,
added, that will scarcely be agreeabl

Once more let me seriously advise yo
to abandon this scheme. And Scroggie,

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-06-04

This convention was called
by authority of the chairman
and secretary of the fourth
Legislative committee, and al
though the time and place was
proper and legal, it was moth
ing more or less than conven-
ton of applicants for the Haz-
Teton postoffice-held under
the guise of a Democratic CON
vention. 1t has been a matter
of much wonder why that lu-
crative Office has been left va
cant since Mr. Wilde resigned.
Many little schemes were laid
to deceive the public before
that convention took place, but
it is all very plain now. Billy
Hines actions in congress,
right or wrong, had to be in
dorsed regardless of the opin-
ions of the Democrats of the
district, and had it been sus-
pected that such trick would
be sprung that day there would
have been delegates from every
district and the resolution
would never go through as it
did then.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-06-04

How these postoffice appli-
cants of that city, about a half
dozen in number, could refuse
Hines the favor and at the
same time each clamoring
for favor from him was a hard
problem to solve and no at
tempt was made to solve it.
If they had refused to indorse
Hines, as they should have
done, their hopes for the post
office were at an end, and to
have Billy waddling through
this district next fall in search
of votes without an indorse-
ment from the district conven-
ton would be decidedly un-
pleasant and uphill work.
However, he secured it as was
intended and as the work was
performed well, and according
to rule, | will not be surprised
to hear of the office being filled
at any time from now on.
They We're so faithful in obey
ing orders, it's a pity that
Hines hasn't a postoffice to
give to each of them.
