Spectre Stops a Train.

Here is something that is said to have
happened less than n year ago, within
less than a hundred miles of this city.
An elderly lady, whom | shall call Mrs.
Smith, set out for the metropolis in tho
early afternoon. Friends gathered
around her at the little way station where
she meant to take the train. They had
SO much to say that the gates of it were
on the point of closing as she made to
get aboard. 1t was startling, in fact,
when she saw n man in a conductors
uniform lean out and say:
wait, Mrs. Smith. The train shall
stop"
II did stop, in fact, obedient to hi,
signal, and she scrambled on and found
a seat. Once settled in it. it came oveI
her AXE a flash that the obliging con.
ductor was a young man she had be.
friended years before.
81 will thank him properly when he
takes up my ticket" she said to herself.
But, to her disappointment, the man
who took it was an utter stranger.
When she asked if he had an assistant.
either regular or volunteer, she got 9
gruff negative.
"Then, how do you know my name,
when You stopped the train for meP'
she asked. The man looked at heI
hard.
Il don't know your name-I nevN
did," he said. Il do know that the train
stopped after it started. and have been
wondering ever since what the deuce
vas to pay with the engineer" Then
at her request he took her through the
whole train. but no man in uniform wal
visible, nor any one whom Mrs. Smith
had ever seen before. And though she
was puzzled over II not a little she Ii
still without an explanation of how she
happened not to miss her train.

DAY ms schooner was loaded, read to
start for New York. But Patrick never
gave the word to the crew to cast off
the hawsers and get under way. In

I spokes of the wheel, smoking his
pipe.
The owner Of the bricSyard, who was
also the owner Of the Schooner. seeing
a the vessel had not started, and
Mlshlns TO nave the load landed in New
DIX as soon as possible, rushed down
10 the dock and irately demanded of
patrick why he did o get under way.
Shure, yer honor, there's no wind"
NO wind! Why, what's the matter

"We'l have a cold spell pretty soon.
For the blacklog's blaze Is blue"
And we sat and gazed
While the backlog blaZed,
Nor wondered II the sign We're true.
''The wind from the north Will come
With frost in the breath II blows,
And the lingering haze
OF the autumn days
WI drear into winters SHOWS"
The red and yellow leave on the trees
VIII be scared to "A dun, dead brown,
For the blast that ch!lls
Is the blast that kills
When the wind from the north comes
down"
And we huddled up TO Rran'ma's knees
AS she sat In the big armchair,
With her head bent low
In the hearth fires glow.
And her hands I'm our tangled ha.r.
We watched the blue blaze flicker out
And the backing TO embers turned,
Change from red TO gray
TIL an ash heap lay,
Turning cold where the file had burned.

II was on the 9TH of November. the cvo of
his w thirty-second birthday, as he often
remembered afterward. He was walking
homo about eleven o'clock from Lord
Henry's, where no had been dining, and
was wrapped in heavy furs, as the night
was ,old and foggy. At the corner Of
Grosvenor Square and South Audley Street
a man passed him in the mist, walking
very fast, and with tho collar of his gray
ulster turned up. He had q bag in his
hand. He recognized him. 1t was Basil
Hallward. A strange sense Of fear for
which he could not account, came over him.
He made no sign Of recognition, and went
on slowly, in tho direction Of his own house.
But Hallward had seen him. Dorian
heard him first stopping, and then hurrying
after him. In a few moments his hand was
on his arm.
"Dorianl What an extraordinary piece

coming in slowly, but enough is known
to make 1t certain that the state has
been carried by the democratic ticket
by 10000 to $4,000 plurality, showing a
falling off In the democratic and repub-

votes were cast-15,00 0 republican, 5000

The lly-b.ossom with silver rain
,Or like the JOY of a cloud that leaps
In happy tears TO its earth again,
Into my soul, as sunbeams fall
Ihroush prison windows, and softly
write
With golden finger, along the wall,
The dream Of freedom-the song OF Eight.
Unto my heart. and I knew you then
As simply woman-against my breast
Your soft cheek. sleeping nor

Can tell of this bl.ss-Love's last and best.
