One Way.
From Harper'o Weekly.

A story. satd ~ be characteristic, Is
told Of an Arkansas judge. It seems
that when he convened court at one IT
the towns on his circuit 1t was foNnd
that no pens. ink. or paper had teen
provided. and. upon inquiry. 1t devel-
oped that no county funds were avail
able for this purpose. The Judge ex-
pressed himself somewhat fyrcef6lly.
then drew some money from his own
pocket. He was about to hand his to
the clerk. when a visiting lawyer. q
high-priced. imported article. brought
on to defend a case rf some import
ance. spoke up. in ar aside plainly aud
tble over the room
WELL he remarked. with infinite
contempt. I've seen some pretty bad
courts. buA 1his-well. this Is the lin.
IT."
The old Judge flushed darkly.
.ysou are ftned se5 for contempt. sir!
Had the money to h clerk!" he said.
and when the pompous visitor had
humbly complied. ne continued:
Now. Mr.. Clerk. go out und get
what pens. Ink and paper the court may
esquire. md II st1ere 10 anything left
ever you may give the gentleman his
change"

Did he take the necklace with him

was no reason whatever for him to u
that risk. He had doubtless picked out n
safe hiding place for 1t in the afternoon.
The necklace once deposited there. he
hurries back to the house, climbs up
to the balcony. and his room.
He assures himself that there are no
blood-stains on him anywhere. then
he move his table near the window
and sits down to wait for DrysdaiC3
return.
LAS soon as he hears him enter his
room. he gathers up the letters which
he had, Of course, written during the
afternoon. and goes downstairs. And 1t
is here that he makes his most Sc
rious mistake. He fancieS. perhaps,
that he is to have only the country po-
lice to deal with-only your Heffel-
bowers-that he must clinch the nail.
that he cannot make the evidence
against his victim toe strong. So. when
he places his letters In the bag on the
laall-rack, he also tears off the top but

Tremaine really did all these things"
Godfrey blew a great smoke ring out
yer the seat in front of US.

as yet any direct evidence against Ire

ture will fall to pieces about my ears.
But I don't believe 1t. I believe. within

light in his eyes that I had seen there

example of one of these "jeux de

the city by the Seine, offered at one
of the important clubs to wager that
he would be arrested without commit

wager was accepted When the time
came for the accomplishment of his
purpose the plince appeared arrayed
in the most dilapidated garments. At
the hour of the aperitif he entered a
celebrated cafe of the Boulevards, AS
was natural, the garcon, distrusting
his appearance, demanded that he
should pay in advance for what he or
dered. To this he readily agreed. He
drew from his torn pocket roll OF
notes OF great value, which he per-
mitted the waiter to see. giving him

THE MOTHER EARTH.

These come not aged and broken,
weary with labor done
To lean tired heads against me till /
cover their eyes from the sun;
These are not feeble or puny, these
are my glory and pride,
Why should l gather them to me. hold
them and cover and hide?
In the splendor and might Of their
manhood, the flush Of their
years they come,
Crazed by their singing trumpets and
the roar of the sullen drum;
With the battle-fags whipping above
them they stand up straight and
tall
And they rush toward the SCATTERING
glory and miserably stumble
and fall.
And they lie in heaps and in wind
rows, my young ones, my Strong
ones, my best:
And their youth and its power and
promise / must cover and hide
in my breast.

azine.
