They drew rein and waited, the
quick patter of hoofs ringing out
sharply in the still night. The moon
light gave them a fair sweep of the
road, and they at once saw horse

road. the horseman began to check
his flight
"Men!" he shouted, as his horse
paved the air with its forefeet, "is

they were aware of flash, glitter

Col Rutherford Gillingwater thunder
ed on
They rode on and saw presently the
lights of camp-fires, and little later
were tremendously halted at the road
side by an armed guard.
1t had been arranged that Collins,
who had once been a second lieuten-
ant in the Georgia militia, should be
presented as an officer of the regular
army, detailed as special aide to Gov
Dangerfield during the encampment
and that in case Gillingwater failed to
return promptly he should take com
mand of the North Carolina forces.
An open field had been seized for
the nights camp, and the tents al
ready shone white in the moonlight
The three men introduced themselves
to the militia officers, and Collins ex-
pressed their regret that they had
missed the adjutant general.
Gov Dangerfield wished you to
move your force on to Ardsley should
we fail to meet Col. Gillingwater; and
you had better strike your tents and
be in readiness to advance in case he
doesn't personally return with orders"

himself, apologized for not being in

Southern Gold and Southern Cotton

Alaska, In the last fiscal year Alabama
produced gold to the value of s41,2OO
and silver to the value of 5000. This
state was outranked in gold produc.

no one of them turned out enough

900. The entire production of gold in
the south in the last year was $256.
400 and $273,000 in silver. Nearly all
the silver was mined in Texas.
II is pretty plain that Alabama and
all the rest of the south can get more
gold out of the soil via the cotton boil
than it can dig out in the gold mines
proper. The climate and the soil can
in that way be coined into gold. The
method is trifle more circuitous, but
1t yields in cotton alone more money
nine times over than do all the gold
fields in the country, for the total
yield of gold in the last fiscal year
in this country was but $94 100000

wakened the sleeping driver on the
wagon with a roar, and himself leaped
upon the box and began turning the
horses.
what do you think he's doing?"
asked Cooke.
Hes in a hurry to get back to
mothers cooking" replied Ardmore.
He's seen Miss Dangerfield and
learned that war is at hand, and he's
going to get his clothes out of danger.
Lordy! Listen to him slashing the
mulesl"
But you don't think"
The wagon had swung round, and
already was In rapid flight Collins
howled in glee.
Come on! We can't miss a show
like this!"
Leave the horses then! There's
hill there that will break his neck.
We'd better stop him If we cant"
cried Cooke, dismounting.
They threw their reins to the driver
of the wagon, who had been brushed
from his seat by the impatient adju-
tant general, and was chanting weird
ly to himself at the roadside.
The wagon, piled high with trunks
and boxes, was dashing forward, Gil
lingwater belaboring the mules furi-
ously, and, hearing the shouts Of
strange pursuers, yelling at the team
in voice shrill with fear.
Come on, boys!" shouted Ardmore,
thoroughly aroused catch the spy
and traitor!"
The road dipped down into the shad-
dow of deep cut, where the moons
rays but feebly penetrated, and where
the flow of springs had softened the
surface; but the pursuers were led on
by the rumble of the wagon, which
swung from side to side perilously,
the boxes swinging about noisily and
toppling threateningly at the apex.
Down the sharp declivity the wagon
plunged like a ship bound for the bot
tom of the sea-
The pursuers bent gamely to their
task in the rough road, with Cooke
slightly in the lead. Suddenly he
shouted warningly to the others, as
something rose darkly above them
like a black cloud, and a trunk fell
with a mighty crash only few feet
ahead of them. The top had been
shaken off in the fall, and into it head
first plunged Ardmore.
There's another coming!" yelled
Collins, and much larger trunk
struck and split upon rock at the
roadside. Clothing of many kinds
strewed the highway. A pair of trou-
sers, flung fiercely into the air caught
on the limb of tree, shook free like
banner, and hung there somberly
etched against the stars.
Ardmore crawled out of the trunk
screaming with delight The fra
GRANGE of toilet water broke freshly
upon the air.

struck the edge of tray His scent

served Cooke, picking up feathered
chapeau. Il didn't know there were
so many clothes in all the world"
They abandoned the idea of farther
pursuit on reaching trunk standing
on end, from which a uniform dress
| coat dropped sadly.
This is not our trouble; it's his
trouble. l guess he's struck smooth
er road down there. We'd better go
back" said Cooke.
In a moment they had climbed the
hill and were in hot pursuit of the ad.

THE BOYS SHADOW.

Recently the mother Of boy who is
about twelve years Of age made com
plant before Judge that her son was
unruly and she feared he was aSsocia-
ting with company that in the end
would bring disgrace to him and her.
The Judge told the son to step near
him, and in pleasant tone of voice said,
pointing to the parent, boy, there is
the only true friend you have; obey
her. Let me impress this on your
mind; think of it. Whatever shadow
you east in life will follow you as long
as you live and always keep up to you.
That is your reputation. It is always
in sight and just your size exactly,
and how proud and happy it will make
your fond mother if you will stop going
with bad youths and stand in such
position in the sunlight of heaven that
your shadow will always be on the side
Of honesty and respectability. Go home
this time with your mother, turn over
a new leaf and prevent the law from
sending you to the reform school.
Golden words. No more pertinent
truth was ever more aptly spoken no
wiser counsel ever prollered by mortal
lips. Your reputation in your com
munity is your shadow. 1t is exactly
your size, and you can never get away
from it; though you may flee a thous-
and miles of a cloudy day, the moment
you show yourself in public your shad-
ow is at your side. Your habits and
modes of thought have left their inn
print upon your features, unconscious
~ controlling your speech and action,
and dissemble rs much as you may, are
constantly signaling from behind the
mask that you are not what you pre-
tend to be.

ENCOURAGEMENT IN RIGHT
DOING.

We often wonder why it is that peo
pie, if they know any good of their
neighbor, seem to think ittheir duty to
keep the fact secre t, never to be di-
vulged until their neighbor has passed
away and is laid in his grave, and then
to be brought to light when it can be
of no earthly benefit to him. 1t is not
so with their faults, which all take
more or less pleasure in magnifying be-
fore the public. Many man has been
driven to the dogs for the want of a
little encouragement and just recog-
milton of his honest efforts to do right,
that are not appreciated by his fellow
men. If people would take one half the
trouble to encourage others in well do
ing, that they do to circulate everything
they hear derogatory of them the world
would be much better and many a man
saved from becoming Il criminal. Men
whose good deeds are ignored 10y soci-
ETY. and whose slightest fault is contin-
ually harped upon and magnitied, soon
lose all self respect and care nothing
for society, because society cares moth
ing for them. They may know they
do wrong; but if it is no credit to do
right what encouragement have they
to do better. Many of the criminals in
our jails and penitentiaries have been
made such, in all probability by the
unkindness of their fellow men, who
have always stood ready to condemn
every little offence, without stopping
TO inquire into the circumstances that
may have caused the party to do wrong.
We should put ourselves in our neigh
boris place surrounded by the same
circumstances, then we would he bet
ter able to Judge and not have to wait
till they are dead before we could say
something good about them.
Hard words, unkind acts may be for
given, but they may never be etlaced
from memory. An injustice that
wrongs or Injuries or pains a brother,
sister or friend stands there forever.
You may atone for it, repent of it, try
to repair it, make double or treble
compensation for it, but you cannot re-
call it; it is done and can never be
helped, though it might have been pre-
vented before it happened. Many a
haSty, inconsiderate act has led to "A
life sorrow; many an act, even trivial,
has been the occasion of frequent Bit
ter memories for long lifetime;
whereas an act of kindness and for
giveness, which it would have been
better and wiser and easier to do,
would have rewarded the doors with
glow of graceful pride and pleasure,
every time in after years it came to
mind.
