lay and listened to-. his own heart
beats and the awful silence.
Evidently the gully had been Sc
lected as leading in the direction he
wished to take, for finally he rose
to .a\crouching posture and began to
move up its course, walking almost
swiftly, though with still bended
back, where it was deep and the sage
bush hung over it, and crawling
again where it grew shallow and lay
open to the sun. In this way, after
an hour of toll, he reached a mass of
boulders, around which the gully
bent, and here he raised himself in
the deep shadows on the side farthest
from the mountains he had watched
50 inteptly* before: he began his jour
ney and 'darted suddenly under the
overhanging' ledge, where the water
had worm away the softer rock, and
hid again in a hollow as before.
Then followed hours of strange
toll. AT times the man lay fiat on
the hot plain and dragged himself
along, taking minutes to move his
own length, SO that any one watching
would have needed keen and steady
eye to be certain that he moved at
all. Then,' in a friendly gully, he
moved faster, with the crouching
posture of the morning, and even

flow, for every drop of moisture was
burned from his body. The CRIME
stood on his face in dry patches; his
eyes were red and bloodshot; his
tongue hun g from his mouth, and
even the hot stones had ceased to
burn his flesh, so hot had it become
in his fierce struggle under that uz-
tempered sun.
In the early afternoon, he stopped
to rest in the shaded hollow of a
boulder, and suddenly, as he looked
to the ground, his face blanched un-
der its coating of CRIME. "A broken
sage bush told where a foot had

moro terrible, with the set terror of
despair. He recognized the spot
where he had rested in the morning
and from which he had crawled to
the first gully! It. was his foot that
had broken the sage bush, and all
these hours of superhuman~ toll had
availed only to bring him back to
his starting point! Then he rose
erect, no longer creeping, no longer
skulking, but upright, as God meant
man to walk, and took the direction
in which lay the mist that was

of but one wish, to reach the shelter
of the mountains, and there to find
water, and, drinking, ,perchance to
die.
Long shadows ran out to meet
him; cooler air from the mountain
heights touched his brow In a gull

he caught a sheen of light, where the
last sun rays struck a falling stream.
Suddenly. from behind great boul-
der, horseman barred the way, the
bridle-rein hanging loose, short rifle
at his shoulder, aimed at the hunted
mans heart. The fugitive stopped,
his weary head dropped, and with his
swollen hand he made the sign of
the Cross on brow and breast. Then
came the sharp, quick ring of the
rifle, and the man fell, with arms
outspread, and with a single groan
lay dead, himselh making the sign
of the Cross on the dead plain. The
horseman adjusted his rifle across his
saddle, gave one glance at the dead
body, to make sure that his aim had
been true, and rode away into the
depths of the mountains.

BY HOWARD REYNOLDS

Picking his way carefully through
the crowded down town streets had
often noticed strange, bent figure
a man of remarkably shrewd and in
telligent face-but having the appear
ance OF premature age and wearing
that look peculiar to those deprived OF
some important faculty. What he lack
ed could not conjecture. At first
thought the shrewd eyes might be
ed in taking step among the whirl-
ing vehicles. Then deafness suggest
ed itself as the old mans infirmity,
but was in turn dismissed. The enor
nous horn slung to strap across his
shoulder did not resemble a speaking
trumpet-it looked more like an i'm
mense megaphone, except for its
gracefully curved outlines and hand
some enamel and nickel finish. The
peculiarly that attracted most atten-
ion-one at which almost every idle
pedestrian stopped to stare-was the
odd-looking old man'ssinveterate habit
OF hitching up on shoulder and fire.
Quently bringing the smaller end Of his
queer horn on a line with his hat
brim. The only remaining alterna-
tive, therefore, seemed to suggest that
this strange looking individual must
be dumb, but had contrived some ex-
traordinary kind of instrument for
making himself Ineligible to others
but hero theory was opposed by the
fact that, SO far as my observation
went, he never tried to communicate
with others.
1t was, therefore, with surprise, not
unmixed with qualification, that I
saw him one day stop suddenly, with
one of his peculiar bitches, and extend
a cordial hand to my friend Hudson,
who is in the electrical supply busi-
ness. They carried on a brief, but
apparently animated conversation, and
when they separated l fastened after
Hudson and inquired the name of
his queer acquaintance.
That" cried Hudson. why, that's
Marcus Brunder and his horn. I
thought everybody knew about Mar
Gus. Come, step in and lunch with me,
and I'll tell you all about him."
AS we lunched Hudson talked. and
told me the following strange story
and as I give it pretty nearly in his
exact words, l shall use no marks of
quotation:

"Access on Pronoun."

Two negro women boarded a Penn
sylvania avenue car at Seventh street.
One was large. dark-skinned woman,
fashily dressed; the other was small,
yellow woman, wearing a modest
gown.
The women were discussing a mu-
tual friend, Mr.. jerks. The large wo-
man spoke in loud tones and pro-
nounced the name of the man as
though it were spelled J-i-n-k-s. It
was evident from the expression on
the face of the smaller woman that
she was annoyed by the loud talking
and mispronunciation of her friend.
Finally she protested:
you speak of Mr.. jerks as though
his name were spelled with an Il
instead of an 'e'."
"Oh, yes," the large woman ex-
claimed, Il perceives you puts the ac.

The Land of Long Ago.

The Land of Long Ago,
Where happy hours sleep.
Where languid rivers glide,
With stately flow and deep;
Where fadeless roses blow,
And Love sits azure-eyed.
There comes no frost, nor snow,
But balmy breezes sweep
Ger gardens fair and wide,
And slow the waters creep
Through blossoms bending low
Above the charmed tide.
How sweet to rise and go
From ways where mortals weep,
From love so long denied,
To dreams that roses heap,
Where crystal waters flow,
And golden days abide. -
