Citys participated In the great Labor

showing Of the union labor forces In
the history Of the city. Only union
labor men marched In the splendid

porous looking men. They carried the
stars and stripes In each division, and
the colors Of the national banner were
mingled with those Of almost every
union In the eight divisions. The true
dignity of labor was never before
shown SO strikingly in parade 10

Ten minutes more and n strange, sol
cmn scene was being enacted at the
head of the steps leading up TO that
l'road, vine-covered old porch, whose
dingy white columns doomed dim and
ghostly in the glare OF lantern and Gun
die. The door was thrown wide open,
and on the worn coping-stone, calm,
dignified, erect, even though leaning
heavily upon her cane, lighted candle
held high over the shimmering grny Of
her well-poised head, her stately, slen-
der form CARRIED in some dark clinging
robe, stood the mistress of the house,
the clear-cut, pallid face standing forth
against the black background Of the
hallway like some exquisite cameo, the
thin, sensitive lips quivering just a
triflc ut the dropping corners Of her
!lrmly-set, almost colorless mouth. In
front of her, his brown head haired, his
burly form nearly concealed in his light
blue overcoat, an almost pleading
look in his soft brown eyes, was Close,
the hero OF a score OF battles. On his
right, folded and formidable-looliing
documents extended in an unsteady
hand, also with uncovered head, stood
Parmelee, representing the majesty Of
the law. To the left of the commander
and pace retired, buttoned to rhe
throat in the uniform Of his rank and
grit with sash and belt, stood young
Lambert, obedient to orders. Behind
them, and almost ut the top of the steps,
armed and equipped, a sergeant and Two
soldiers of the guard. Back, farther
down the steps, still others were
grouped, the fixed bayonets cleaning
in the light Of the two lamps, one held
by the amazed woman at the threshold,
the other swinging from the gloved
hand Of the sergeant Of the guard.

Of oppressive silence; then sudden start

Down the Tugaloo road to the south,
at the farthest corner OF the fence
which surrounded the Walton place,
there was a pathway leading through
the brush to the level "bottom" below.
