MOONSHlNER IN REAL LIFE
Quite Different From His Confrere a.
Seen on the Stage.

Quite Different From His Confrere a.
Seen on the Stage.
The Kentucky moonshiner in real life
does not resemble his counterpart, de-
scribed in novels and unprecedented on
the stage, in the least. He does not
wear top boots and SLOUGH hat. AS a
rule he is too poor to possess the former,
and he is more apt to go barefoot or to
amble along in pair of wornout bro
gans than to wear top boots. His hat is
usually torn straw Jimmy" and his
clothes are yellow and faded with age.
Regularly, on days when the grand jury
meets in Louisville, dozen or more Of
the moonshiners are presented for in
dictment. They present woebegone
appearance as they pass along the streets
in charge Of the marshal. In their own
poor homes in the mountains they are
hospitable, but of the stranger ever sus-
picious The latter may make his bed
in the one room where the entire farni-
ly sleeps, but his request for taste of
liquor brings forth a statement that
none is to be had this side of "the
store. At the same time still may
be i'll operation within ten feet of his
whereabouts.
1.-THE store" represents to the noun
taineer all civilization. On winter
mornings he will tramp to it through
cold and snow to sell few stiff rabbits
and swap yarns not overbrilliant. One
of the mountaineer's chief sources of
income is his honey, and this finds
ready sale at ''the store" The moon
sinner seldom receives money in pay for
his wares, but is paid in a bit of bright
calico for his wife or shoulder of ba-
con. If he can add to this few pipe
fuls of tobacco, he is we'll satisfied with

as he turned around "Yes, it is, as
you say, a bad place. The best swim
mer, warrant, could not live in such
sea.
"Yet his cries would probably reach
the castle.
81 fear not. The sound of the waves
would drown them.
The eyes of Rupert glittered with q
dangerous light as he heard these
words. "Do you think the edge Of the
bank is firm?'' he asked. Would there
not be danger of it's crumbling if one
should stand close to the brink"
''None in the least / have stood
many times within an inch of the edge
and felt no danger whatever. See:"
AS Roland spoke he stepped forward,
and presently only small space inter-
vened between him and the side of the
preciplce Ere he had timejto return he
felt himself being pushed over the cliff.
Impulsively he stretched forth his hand
and grasped Rupert, his assailant, by
the arm. The latter struggled to free
himself, but in vain, and a moment aft
erward the pitiless ocean received them
in it's depths
That evening Lady Ella waited long
for the appearance Of Roland, but he
did not come. She knew not that, toss
ed here and there by the angry waves,
his lifeless form was in the ocean.
The next day, as she was walking
along the edge of the cliff, her mind
full of strange forebodings, the upturned
face of her dead lover met her vision
Her head swan, and she toppled over
the cliff AS she fell the ocean clasped
her in it's embrace, and the gates of
death were thrown open to receive an
other soul
That night Lord Hurdron retired to
the red room. The nonappearance Of
Lady Ella did not seem to affect him.
AS he sat down his thoughts reverted to
the past. =. *
HAL he muttered. ''That young
scamp, Hitter, will no longer trouble
these regions. IT, -:
"Think SO, father?'' interrupted a
sepulchral voice at his side.
Lord Hurdron turned his eyes to
whence came the voice AS he did SO
he beheld the dripping apparition of
Lady Ella leaning on her lovers arm
''By my trothr' cried the astonished
lord $50 you have returned, you base
scoundrel? Death be upon you'll"
AS he spoke he drew pistol and
fred at the spectral form. When the
smoke cleared away, no one save Lord
Hurdron remained in the room.
For a moment he hardly stirred.
Then his head dropped on his breast,
and his eyes put on a glazed appear
ance When the servants entered, only
the dead body Of Lord Hurdron remained
in the room.
The physicians pronounced his death
as the result of heart disease, but they
knew not what was the rightful cause.
The bodies of Rupert, Roland Hitter
and Lady Ella were never recovered.
The sea refused them to mortal man.
For years the red room Of Isfodel
castle was haunted. It is said that the
pale form of Lady Ella often appeared
at the window, as if in waiting for
some one. The castle has long since
been destroyed, but the strange story
connected with it is still fresh in the
minds of many persons in England.

THE OLD FLYBooK.
It Is Dearer to the Angler Than Any
Other Possession.

1t Is Dearer TO the Angler Than Any
Other Possession.
Is there anything closer to an angler S
heart than his fyhaNlx? know of case
where burglar, among other things,
took fybook He was arrested and
speedily. convicted and imprisoned. He
cleared things out pretty well in the
house, but the owner seemed to care for
nothing about the missing fur coats,
sealskin sacks, silverware and other
valuable Lares and Penates, but he did
bewail the loss of his book Of flies The
other things he could buy again, but to
get together such an assortment of valu-
able flies seemed to him an impossible
thing. He had been years collecting
them, picking up odd ones here and
there, until, for quality and variety,
his book could not be excelled
1t was fly storehouse, as it were.
No matter where he intended fishing,
or whether for trout, bass or salmon, he
could always find choice assortment
to draw from with which to fill up a
supplementary book.
Although it was some time ago he
yet bewails the loss of that fybook.
Many have been the efforts to get track
of it, but all in vain. He has gone to
the expense of sending to the prison in
distant city and endeavoring to pre-
vail upon the convict to divulge the
hiding place of the book, but without
success A persistent search of the
pawnshops and periodical advertising
have produced no better results.
There were flies in that book for trout
and salmon in Irish waters, flies for the
salmon and trout of the Scotch lakes
and the English streams and flies for
the salmon of Norway. The favorites
from Maine to California and from one
end of Canada to another were collected
in that wallet-anything and every
thing, from the feather down midget
with cobweb gut to the lordly salmon
fly, absolutely irresistible to the Turk
ing salmon deep down in the icy pools
of the Cascapedia.
There were flies in that book on
which famous bass, trout and salmon
had been hooked, each fly carrying with
it memories of battles fought from Ca
noes among the rushing, swirling wa
tiers. and Stream.
