merry crowd for a sail up the Hudson.

until about lib {. AS the boat was
bound to Coney Island a large crowd

ting back to this city by 6.45 O'Clock.

aasEtths.
T'hat evening Jabez Lee set out on a
fRagrliug expedition, while Jonah. who
t'xtR Eaot dress up at all, was also absent
Etxpgil the house a couple of hours and
axuciaed home only five minutes before
aSls fAther. On the next night his father

IN spt TO be a regular thing for JabeZ

wy Wednesday evening. Some one hid
dEsn bchind the fence threw stones at
Hhx1 uI1 three or four occasions. and

= Tina idea was developed that very

r4aythes and took walk the father fol

Widow Spooner's. The murder was

scmpIed and tried to look innocent.
They understood each other. however,
and both set their jaws as they went
on with their work. That night WAS
Jonahs $ night to go courting, and be-
fore he left the house he took notice
that his father was missing He real
iHed 1T once what that meant, and he
beEan to plan. The route TO the Widow
Spooncr's carried him over Il bridge
spanning Il deep creek near ler house
There were trees near the north end,
making deep shadow for many yards,
and Jonah felt Chat his father would
wait for him there and play some trick
lie therefore removed his boots when
he was yet twenty yards away and APP
proached the spot With catlike trtNd
1t may be stated in advance that the
father was there in the shadow. He
had 4 sheet ready to wrap around him
sell and pillow case ready TO pull over
his head lie was not only going to
play gEost. but the ghost would do
some humping before Jonah could get
away. IL tl.at same deep, dark shadow
was a second party. 1t was an old lame
mule which had been turned out to get
his living beside the highway, and he
had halted at that spot that night to
runinate and doze He stood within
twenty feet of the man in ambush. but
made no noise to give himself away. In
fact, he took no interest whatever in
the proceedings for time realizing
that he had passed the age when he
should be mixed up in love adventures,
and it was not until his long ears de-
tected the approach of Jonah that his
what was up. Jonah crept forward foot
by foot. and at last his presence was
also detected by the father. With soft
ness of touch he got ready his ghostly
garments and was on the point of don
ming them and making a rush when
the old mule raised his head, tapped
his ears and uttered bray. 1t was a
bray that split the air with thunderous
sound and made things shake for rods
around. The awful and unexpected
sound stirred the 'ghost'' and Jonah to
action at the same instant. They went
over the railing Of the bridge and into
the waters Of the creek almost togeth-
er, and both yelling the same yell.
Five minutes later father and son
reached the bank together and pulled
themselves out. AS they stood gasping
and dripping they recognized each 9th
er, and the father shouted:
"Joner, durn yer hide. but I'll-1'lr'-
dad. you old hypocrite, I'll-I'll'-
choked the son.
At that moment the widow opened
her door and came down the path. She
had heard the bray and the yells and
thought some traveller had met with an
accident. She saw the two men before
her, with the mule looking down at
them over the railing of the bridge,
and her woman's wit told her what had
occurred. She laughed loud and long
as they covered before her and ended
the laugh by remarking:
81 guess both of you better trot home
ward and go to bed You may git the
nger!" NJ. QUAD.
