"For a long time these boys have prosecuted
you cruelty You have been hammered and

One Of the little boys began to struggle fran
tically to get away but: it was quite impossible:
Soon two of the chestnuts advanced and
raised their clubs threateningly.
"Look out, Tommy" cautioned Ed Brown,
in terror. They're going to throw"
Zip!-just then came the clubs. Tommy
closed his eyes and ducked his head. When
he looked again, he saw a chestnut pocketing
with a smile OF triumph. one Of his COM
panions

While he spoke, regular bombardment wes
taking place. Sticks and clubs seemed to be

left and right.
Presently the tree began to look quite strip

they in throwing. Tommy was the only one
left upon it.
perhaps they won't see me-" he thought,
hiding as well as he could among the wither,
ed leaves "And then father will come and
get me down. Oh look at that one-oh! ohl"
A chestnut, who had spied his woe-begone
face, was just then taking careful aim at Tom
my. Suddenly he received a blow upon his
back that sent him up, up, still up, making
him turn ever so many somersets And then
he fell down, down, down until he struck the
earth, when he opened his eyes and found
! Tighe licking his face in his attempt TO
wake him. He had finished his rabbit hunt,
you see, and he was impatient to go home.
And Tommy-Tommy was so glad to see
Tighe that he threw his arms around his
shaggy neck and almost cried,
! "0h, Tighe," he said, "you don't know
what dream I've had! And now let's 20
right home"
But all the way back he kept casting nery-
Gus glances at the chestnuts in his pail, as il
he half expected they would take It into

within, only waiting good, brisk wind to fall.
Then he deliberately took UP club.
"Myl Amt they whoppers!" he chuckled,
taking aim.
Z-i-pl went the club at thick cluster Of
burrs. Tommy lodged as it came down
again, while the chestnuts fell like rain.
"Ain't this jolly?" he said, as he picked
lit up.
f. W-h-i-r-r! it flew again, and patter, patter,
patter showered the nuts. The ground was
covered with them, and presently he stopped
to pick them up.

them one by one into the pail, until they
numbered up into the hundreds. And by

It was enough to excite any ones surprise.
On the side of the pail tiny old woman was
perched, looking sternly at him.
Little boy, don't you think you ought to

"At what" faltered Tommy.
"At whatl" she echoed, witheringly. Good

"Oh cease your sad complaining!

Up, little subjects, air 't
In response to her words, there was heard
the sound of hurrying feet, and presently all
pail. At the same time noise filled the air
like that Of the fallso hail, and, looking up,
Tommy could see the nuts descending from
the branches in a perfect storm.
Helter-skelter they came everywhere, jump
ing nimbly up to join their brethren, while
the burrs they had just deserted flew into
the air, and rushed comically at each other
until they formed big, sticky ball, which
sailed majestically away in the upper air
until finally it disappeared from sight
And there-could Tommy believe his eyes?-
where each burr had been was small boy,
with pufedout cheeks and bulging eyes, Sc
curely fastened by the rear of his trousers.
GOOD graciousi" he CALCULATED, in horror.
"I won't stay here any longer" -.
But before he could rise to go, he was
sent by some mysterious force spinning up in
to the air, until he caught on limb, from
which he struggled and twisted in vain to
free himself. II So
Looking down, with wide-open mouth, he
saw that the .chestnuts had formed long
procession, and were being reviewed by their
queen. All had small sticks, which they car
ried on their arms a soldier does.a gun, and
the moment they passed under her magic
wand they seemed to him to grow to a. pro-
digious size.
Hello, Tommy!" he heard frightened
voice say. Were in pretty fix, amt we?"
Turning around, Tommy saw his most par
ticular friend, Ed Brown, close at his elbow
"Why. Ed" he said, wonderingly, "is that
you? However in the world did you come
here~
"Don't know!" answered Ed WAS over
in Thompson's Woods chestnutting, when
something took me right up in the air, and
before knew it was here; SOS Jim Green
and Will Jones. Can't you see 'em over on
that branch there? What do you suppose
they're going to do with us, anyhow
Kill u.s.. maybe!" groaned Tommy ooh,
isn't it awful?'
Ed began to whimper dismally
'If 1 only get home all right" he said,
between his sobs, "I'll never go chestnutting
again-never!"
"Harkl" warned Tommy. "She's going to
say something"
The old woman was stamping her tiny
shoe upon the pail for silence. Immediately
the chestnuts gathered around her, to give
her respectful attention, and, in voice that
even the little boys on the highest part of
! the tree could hear she said:

field before him were white with frost.
Gust the weather to bring em!" said Iom-
, N.Y. delightedy. :,
As he spoke his eyes wandered to the old
chestnut tree over on Buttercup Hill.
When he was through his breakfast, he. put
on his overcoat and mittens, and tied WOOL
en- comforter around his neck.
'Bless me, Tommy!" laughed his mother,
when she saw him; "what are you going to
do?"
"Going chestnutting," he said
And he started gayly off, while his mother,
telling him to take good care OF himself, stood
in the doorway and watched him out OF sight.
In one arm he had tin pail-the largest
one he could get, for there would be Just
lots and lots" he said. The other tightly
clutched two clubs that he had been saving
up for weeks beautiful ones, with knobs on
the ends. and just the thing to send whizzing
ND among the branches. So it was no wonder
that his overcharged spirits found relief in
Captain Jinks," which he whistled with all
his might as he walked along.
Hearing a soft scampering Of feet upon the
grass behind him, Tommy suddenly stopped
whistling and looked around. AS he did SC
a little woolly dog, with twinkling black eyes
and a funny, stubby tail, jumped Playfully VI
against him, nearly knocking him down.
"Hello, Tighe!" he said as soon as he could
recover his breath. care you coming, too
Well, all right"
And, to show how pleased he was, Tigh'
wagged his piece of tail at least twenty times
as hard as he could.
Down the shady little lane, bright with il
autumn tints, they went, Tighe keeping ahead
TO investigate. Gay golden rod and fiery su
mac nodded sleepily at them as they passed,
Crossing the little brook, they went by tht
beech trees and up the brown meadow land
until they finally came to Buttercup Hill
Once under tree, Tommy laid his pail anC
clubs down, with a sigh of satisfaction.
Tighe seated himself lesurey, and watched
him out of the corner of his eyes.
"Hey" he must have thought to himself

of the millions of dollars that were

Lockhart, the Standard Oil magnate

ciate of John d. Rockefeller. The ap-
pearance of the interior of Mr.. Lock.
hart's palatial residence at Fifth ave.
nue. and Ivy street, which he erected
at a cost of S25O,OOO does not suit him,
and young Mr.. Lockhart has given an
order to local firm to have it redec.
GRATED at a cost of 100000.
When old Charles Lockhart was liv-
ing he would have bees Mortified at
such an expenditure of money. The
elder Mr.. Lockhart during his life
time whitewashed the fences about his
place in order to save the money he
would have paid to some one to do it,
and used to push a lawn mower about
every evening to save the expense OF
having the lawn moved.
Although James H. Lockhart is far
from a spendthrift, he believes he can
afford to indulge his fancies, for he
was his fathers favorite and secured
the greater part of his fathers fortune,
which was variously estimated at from
$5O,OOO,0OO to $150,00O,00O.
