be safer. A few days ago prominent gen

the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and

This is the sentiment of quite number in

from the ranks of the volunteers-it
was for trespass on the Walton place.
The fellow had climbed the fence and
was pilfering among the old fruit trees
when caught by Madam Walton. That
was bad enough, but he had been i'm
pudent to her, which was worse. The
men themselves would probably have
ducked him in the stream-the old.
self-respecting soldiers, that is-had the
captain not ordered his summary pun
ishment. Lambert was wondering
what steps he should take in the inter-
ests Of discipline, when he finally blew
out his candle, determined. if a possible
thing, to get to sleep. It was just a
Quarter-past ~ when he wound his
watch and slowed it under his rude
pillow. His revolver, the days pur-
chase, lay, with some matches, close at
hand. He had even placed his sword
and belt at the foot of his cot. The
last thing he thought of before closing
his eyes was that he would have to get
4 lantern on the morrow, even if he
bought it of Cohen; but it was also the
last thing he thought Of when the NOR
row came.

reused him, he knew not how many
minutes or hours - later? Some
thing was whispering, surely. The
wind had been doing good deal of that
sort of thing all the night long among
the leaves, a good deal of snarling and
growing at times, and there was NUT
tered snarling going on around him
now. That might be the wind; but the
wind would not trip up over a tent

about it, even if it did nearly pull the
fimsy structure down. In an instant
Lamb.. Il was wide awake.
"Who's there?" he challenged, stern

text whatever. That, of course, didnot
prohibit the men from buying what the
Walton servants offered for sale OUTSIDE
the fence, and if they were SO straitene1
in circumstances they might be glad to
find a market for their surplus produce
even among the Yankee invaders, pro-
vided Nine. Walton were kept in ignor-
ance of the traffic. She was uncom-
promising. No intercourse with, no
recognition of, the barbar'ans, was her
rule to kith and kin. and the few negroes
who still hung about the crumbling old
Mace repeated her words with the fear
born of iong-continued discipline under
her roof and rod in the days of theli en-
forced and unquestioning servltude.
These and other items of information
as to his surroundings the young lieu
tenant had obtained from Sergt. Burns
in the course of their evening watch to-
eether. he had no other means OF
studying the situation, and was but one
of many new and comparatively mex
perienced officers thrown upon their
own resources at isolated posts among

out definite instructions of any KIND
and only his native common sense to
guide him.
Lambert has since told two women
his wife and his mother-how his
thoughts wandered back to the peace
full old homestead in the far northland,
and to the teachings Of his boyhood
DAYS. He made sturdy fight against
the feeling of loneliness that oppressed
him. He wished the wind did not blow
so sulkily, in such spiteful, vicious
puffs. It seemed as though nature had
combined with old Lady Walton to give
him ungracious welcome to this par
ticularly shady side of the sunny south
The wind itself was whispering sarcas-
tic and whitening remarks to him, like
those the sergeant repeated as coming
from Madam Walton to the defenseless
captain: and even Burns sense of sub
ordination could not down his impulse
to chuckle over some of them. What
would Lambert do or say if the prim
and starchy dame were to call upon
him, as she occasionally had on his su-
perior, driving him at last to the refuge
of the nethermost depths of his tent.

ExCELIENT CROP PROSPECTS.

Spirits.

The reports that have been received from
tho farmers of the Canadian Northwest are
are looked upon as q factor in forwarding
the wheat crop, and is inestimable in fore:
ing the growth, have been numerous and
the wheat fields are now in the highest con-
dition. The result will be that with the
acreage of this year and the prospect OF a
big average, the lot of the Canadian farmer
is q most enviable one. Along the lines of
the railway that have been constructed and
those under construction, there are still a
limited number of homesteads that can be
had actually free. In other districts i'm
proved farms can be had at low figures
The opportunity is now offered all who de-
sire to better their condition to take up
lands there. Excellent climate. good laws,
free schools, and the best of social condi-
lions, churches, societies, etc For particu-
lars and pamphlets and information as to

ent Press retells the story of the hoax
pcrpetrated upon the civic and uni
vcrsity authorities at Cambridge on the
occasion of the visit of the late shah of
Persia to that country. 1t was on Sat-
urlay, June 20, 1873, at II o'clock in the
forenoon that a telegram was found
lying on the hallkeeper's table in the
Guildshall. 1t was directed to the
worshipful, the mayor of Cambridge,
was signed by Lieut.. Col. Hamilton,
and read as follows:
His imperial majesty, the shah OF
Persia, desires to visit your university
town to-day en- route for London by
special, arriving at Cambridge station
escort and reception as far as time
allows"
Instantly everybody began tumbling
over his fellow. The town clerk was
sent for and messages were dispatched
to the vice-chancellor, the members of

and the cook of St. Peters college
kitchen. The vice-chancellor hurried to
his robes, the aldermen and council
ors did ditto, the volunteers donned
their uniforms, and the cook began to
boil and fry.
Nor was the general public behind
hand. Flags were hung out and crowds
gathered in the streets. Dr. Cookr;on,
the vice chancellor (irreverently known
in those days as DISMAL Jimmy
made his way to the station d. Fast
as his dignity would permit. The
mayor, Mr.. T. H. Naylor, and the cor
poration followed suit. A guard of
honor and carriages were in waiting,
ond soon everybody was there exccpA
the shah. Then the news flew around
that the railway officials knew nothing
about the special train, and afte@ q
brief delay it was apparent that yle
whole thing was a hoax. The perpet:u-
