The Dakota chief. (Gann Valley, Buffalo County, S.D.) 18??-1913, 1907-11-21

The weather, which had been mild and
clear since the storm, now changed with
the suddcnnosS of an American climate.
Toward evening the cold blasts poured
down from the mountains, and hurries
OF snow plainly Indicated that the month
Of November had arrived. Frances had
s;ood at the window of her own apart
mCnt. watching the slow progress of the
Birch funeral procession, with a medlan-
choly that was too deep to be excited by
The spectacle. There was something in
the sad Office that was in unison with
her feelings. \ few of the southern
dra guOn&, who were patrolling the passes
which led TO the encampment of the
c0rrS, could be distinguished at dis
tancc on the heights, bending to their
pommeis rs they faced the keen air.
Frances Witnessed the disappearance
or the wooden tenement Of the deceased,
as it was slowly lowered from the light OF
day: end the sight added to the chilling
wcarino~> ot the view. Captain Single
ton was sleeping under the care of his
own man. while his sister had been per-
suadcd to take possession of her own
room. for the purpose Of obtaining the re-
pose of which her last nights journeyins
had robbed her. The apartment of Miss
Singleton communicated with the room
occupied by the sisters, through private
door, and the surprised girl saw her
whom she had thought to be sleeping, not
only awake, but employed in manner
that banished all probability of present
rcpOse. The black trcsscs were loosened,
and fell in profusion over her shoulders
and bosom. impartiHg a slight degree or
wildnoss tn her countcnance; the chilling
v,hi;c Of her comDIeXion was strongly con-
trastcd with eyes Of the deepest black,
that wore fixed in rooted attention on a
picture sho held in her hand. Frances
hardly brcathed as she was enabled to see
that it was the figure of man in the
wcIl-known dress of the Southern horse;
but she instinctivcIy laid her hand on her
heart to .uuel its throbbings, as she
tbought she recognized the lineaments.
Frances felt she was improperly pryins
into the sacred privacy of another; but
her emotions were too powerful to permit
her to speak. Isabella was too much
Cngrossed by her own feelings to discover
tha trembling figure of the witness to her
actions. and she pressed the inanimate i'm
age to her lips with enthusiasm.
The fury OF the wind whistled round
the ANGLES of the building, and she rose
and moved to a window. Her figure was
now hid from the view of Frances, who
was about to rise and approach her guest,
when tones of a thrilling melody chained
| her in breathless silence to the spot.

"Here, take the trash," cried Birch, @
he threw aside the purse, which he had
contrived to conceal notwithstanding the
change in his garments. Father hush
father! / GOMEZ come ;" he darted BY
his keeper, and was the next moment
pinned to the wall by bayonet. Fortu-
na:eiy his quick motion had caused him to
escape the thrust aimed at his life, and
it was by his clothes only that he was
confined.
'No, Mr. Birch" said the Skinner. "we
know you too we'll for slippery rascal,
to trust you out of sight-yOur gold, your
gold! Where is your hoard? without IL
you will never see your father"
Remove the stone underneath the wom-
an cried the peddler eagerly, and you
will find that which will maze you rich,
and me beggar."
And then you will be despisable," said
the housekeeper, bitterly. "A pedde-
without goods and without money is sure
to be despisable''
"There will be enough left to pay for
his halter" cried the Skinner, who was
not slow to follow the instructions Of
Harvey, soon lighting upon a store Of
English guineas. The money was quickly
transferred to a bag.
Delighted with a prize that greatly ex-
ceedcd their expectations, the band pre-
pared to depart, intending to take the
peddler with them, in order to give him
up to the American troops above, and
to claim the reward offered for his ap-
prehension. Everything was ready, when
form appeared in their midst which ap-
palled the stoutest hearts among them.
The father had arisen from his bed, and
he tOttered forth at the cries of his sou.
Around his body was thrown the sheet Of
the bed, and his fixed eye and haggard
face gave him the appearance of a being
from another world. Even Katy and
Caesar thought it was the spirit of the
elder Birch, and they fled the house, fol-
lowed by the alarmed SINNERS. in body.
The excitement. which had given the
sick man strength, soon vanished, and
the pedder, lifting him in his arms, re-
conveyed him to his bed. The glazed eye
of the father was fixed upon the son.
Harvey bent down, and, with the part
ing breath of his parent, received his
dying bcnediction. A life Of prvation

the sweet assurance Of having faithfully

THINGS TOURISTS LOSE.

Dover's Beach and Other Resorts
Yield Harvest of Lost Articles.
The things tourists lose are so nu.
side season large bodies of men and
children are frequently to be seen on
the occasion of high tide at Brighton,
Scarborough, Blackpool and else
where, searching the beach for the
gold, silver and copper the sea dis,
closes, says London Answers.
Dover beach is regular Tom It'd
dler's ground. This is proved by the
fact that. in addition to purse con-
tanning several sovereigns that were
returned by Dover boy to its owner,
who rewarded him with penny. the
presentation watch, once the property
Of Sergt, Maj. Hollis, that was lost
some time ago by his widow. was dis
covered imbedded in the sand the
year before last.
Other extraordinary "finds" at Do
yer are the iron vane of the light
house that was lost several years ago
when the pier was run into by n large
sailing vessel which was discovered
through the agency of an angler,
whose catch, small whiting, entan-
sled the line in the irOnwork: a draft
for fl, 800, contained in a pocketboOk,
that fetched a member Of the Dover
Gordon Boys Orphanage reward Of

eral hundred pounds, that was lost by
a lady when leaning over the side of
q yacht in the harbor, and recovered
a few days later by sailor who
1redged it up from the bed of the sea.
1t is. Of course, a great satisfaction
to have anything lost returned to one
at once, as was the good fortune Of
lady at GorlestOn two years ago, who
rewarded with twopence the small boy
who returned the gold watch and
chain that she had dropped on the
beach, but because a recovery is not

GONE FOREVER.

Ten years ago farmer put his ini-
tials on dollar bill. The next day he
went to the nearest town and spent 1t
with merchant. Before the year was
out he got the dollar back. Four times
in six years the dollar came back to
him for produce and three times he
heard of it in the pocket of his neigh
bors.
The last time he got It back four
years ago. He sent it to mail order
house. He never has seen that dollar
since, and never will. That dollar bill
will never pay any more school or
road tax for him, will never build or
brighten any of the homes of the com.
munity. He sent it entirely out of
the circle of usefulness to himself and
his neighbors.
Patronize your local merchant who
helps you to pay your taxes, support
your schools and churches, and lends
a helping hand in times of sickness
and trouble.
