AS we so marching on

The barouche stopped IN front OF ire
courthouse, and Harkless passed up a
lane they made for him to the steps.
When he turned to them to speak, they
began to cheer again, and lie had 10
wait for them to quiet down.
Eve can't hear him from over here
said Briscoe. We're too far off. Mr.
Meredith, suppose you take the ladies
closer in; I'll stay with the horses"
Hes a great man, isn't he?' Mere
dith said to Helen as he handed her
out of the blackboard. I've been try
ing to realize that he's the same old
fellow I've been treating so familiarly
all day long"
''Yes. he is great man," she an
swered. This is only the beginning"
That's true, said Briscoe. Only
wait awhile, and We'll all go on to
Washington and get thrill down our
backs when we hear the speaker say.
The gentleman from Indiana and see
John Karkless rise to speak. But hurry
along, young people"
Crossing the street, they met Miss
Tihbs. She was wiping her streaming
eyes with the back of her left hand and
still mechanically waving her hand
kerchief with her right. "IsT't it beau
tifrl:" she said, not ceasins 20 uncon-

brio. There was such thronS that
grew faint and had to come away. /
don't mind yonr seeing me cry. Pretty
near everybody cried when lie walked
up the steps and we saw that be was
lame"
John Harkless looked down upon tie
attentive, earnest faces and into the
kindly eyes Of the Hoosier country peo-
ple, and as he spoke the thought kept
recurring to him that this was the place
he had dreaded to come back to; that
these were the people be had wished 10
leave, these who gave him everything
they had to give, and this made it dill
cult to keep his tones steady and his
throat clear. Helen stood so far from
the steps (nor could she be induced to
penetrate farther, though they would
have made way for herr that only
fragments reached her, but these she
remembered.

GLORY, glory, halleluiah!
AS we go marching on


favor the public:
GLORY, glory, halleluiah!
AS we go marching on.
The words, the air, that husky voice,
recalled to the men of Carlow another
day and another procession not like this
one. And the song Wilkerson was
singing is the one song every northern
born American knows and can sing.
The leader of the band caught the
sound, signaled to his men, twenty in
struments rose as oNe to twenty
mouths, the snare drum ratified, the big
drum crashed, the leader threw his
baton high over his head, and music
burst from twenty braZen throats:
"Glory, glory. halleluiah!'
Instantaneously the whole procession
began to sing the refrain, and the peo-
pie in the street and those in the
wagons and carriages and those lean
ing from the windows joined with one
accord. The ringing bells caught the
time of the song, and the upper air
reverberated in the rhythm.
The Harkless club Of Carlow
wheeled into Main street, 200 strong.
with their banners and transparencies.
Lise Willetts rode at their head, and
behind him strobe William Todd and
Parker and Ross Schofeld and Newt
Tibbs and Hartley Bowlder, and even
Bud Tipworthy held place in the
ranks through his connection with the
Herald. They were all singing, and
behind them Helen saw the flag COW
cred barouche and her father, and be-
side him sat John Harkless, with his
head barred. She glanced at Briscce,
He was standing on the seat in front
of her and Minnie and both were sing
ing. Meredith had climbed upon the
back seat and was nervously fumblinG
at cigarette. Sing, Tom"' the cir.
cried to him excitedly.

answered, and dropped the cigarette
and began to sing John Browns
Body" with all his strength. With that
she seized his hand, sprang up beside
him, and over the swelling chorus her
full soprano rose, lifted with all the
power in her.
The barouche rolled into the square,
and as it passed Harkless turned and
bent a sudden gaze upon the group in
the blackboard, but the western sun
was in his eyes and he only caught a
glimpse Of a vague, bright shape and
a dazzle Of gold, and he was borne
along and out of view down the singing
street.

Everybody was struggling for a
better position. The people in wagons
and carriages stood upon the seats, and
the pedestrians besieged them, climbing
on the wheels or balancing recklessly
with Feet on the hubs of opposite wag-
ems. Everybody was bound to see him.
When the whistle announced the com
ing of the train the band began to play,
Z the cannon fred, horns blew and the
cheering echoed and re-echoed till heav-
ems vault resounded with the noise
the people Of Carlow were making.
There was one heart that almost
stopped beating. Helen was standing
on the front seat Of the Briscoe buck
board, with Minnie beside her, and at
the commodon the horses pranced and
backed so that Lige Willetts ran to hold
them. But Helen did not notice the
frightened roans, nor did she know
that Minnie clutched her round the
waist to keep her from falling. Her
eyes were fixed intently on the smoke
OF the faraway engine, and her hand,
lifted to her face in an uncertain,
Ftremulous fashion, as it was one day
in circus tent, was laid against the
deepest blush that ever mantled girls
cheek. When the train reached the
platform she saw BriScoe and the 9th
ers rush into the bunting covered car,
and there ensued what was to her an
almost intolerable pause Of expecta-
lion while the crowd assaulted the win
dows OF the smoker, leaping up and
climbing on each others shoulders to
catch the first glimpse Of him. Briscoe
and red faced young man "a stranger
to Plattville) came down the steps,
laughing like boys, and then keating
and Bence, and then Warren Smith.
AS the lawyer reached the platform he
turned toward the door Of the car and
waved his hand as in welcome. "Here
he is, boysy' he shouted.
At that it was as if all the noise that
had gone before had been mere leak
age of pent up enthusiasm. a thousand
horns blared deafeningly; the whistle
of the locomotive and that Of Hib-
bard's mill were added to the din; the
courthouse bell was pealing out vel
come, and the church bells were ring
ing; the cannon thundered. and then
cheer on cheer shook the air as John
Harkless cane out under the flags and
passed down the steps Of the car.
When Helen saw him over the heads
Of the people and through heaving to
multi Of flags and hats and handAer-
chiefs she suddenly gave 9 frightened
glance about her and jumped down
from ber high perch and sank into the
back seat Of the blackboard, with her
burning face turned from the station
and her eyes fixed on the ground. She
wanted to run away, as she had run
from him the first time she ever saw
him, and then. as now, he came in tri-

BARGES OF p. r. r. TOW
SUNK U. s. DREDGER

ELIZABETH, Sept. 11:-Last
Wednesday night a Pennsylvania
railroad coal tow of t~wenty-four
barges, heavily laden and bound out
through Staten Island sound, ran
foul of the government dredge off
Shooters Island, and one of the
barges went to the bottom, where it
still lies.
Three others had their upper
works ripped off and narrowly es-
capped sinking. One large tugboat
was hauling the tow, and another in
the rear was acting as a rudder. The
drcdge that did the damage had been
at work in the widening of the chan
mel at Shooters Island, and at the
time of the collision, while not in
operation, had been left in the chan
mel with its great steel arm and i'm
mense bucket extending out over the
center of the only water way open
for the tow.

MEDICINE BOUGHT
BY THE FREEHoLDERS

"F~reeholder" in the New York
Press, this morning, says
volumes might be written in lauda-
tion of the act of a single freeholder
in M~iddleseX, who cannot understand
how medicine worth S400 could be
swallowed by the half dozen prisoners
who refused TO escape from the county
jail, and who repudiates the official
declaration that so much medicine
could have been employed legitimate
ly. The doubling freeholder, if he
continues to frame ~innuendoes, is
likely to say some whiskey paraded as
medicine and was charged to the
drug account, but as he must needs
capture the fugitive prisoners tic, sub
tantiate the charge that cocktails
we're on the jail menu he would better
be too explicit in his allegations.
