"Open up, and find out - said in the
Monterey Center crowd who seemed to take COM
mand a matter of course. "Kick the door
open, Dutchy!"
AS he said this he stepped aside, and pusneo
me up to the door. I gave it a push with my
knee, and the leader jerked me aside, just IN
time to let charge Of shot pass my head

and mad too, 1 clinched with the fellow and
threw him; then / pitched him out of the door.
when the rest of them threw him down and be-
gan stripping him. At the time, some one
kindled fire under a kettle filled with tar and in
a few minutes, they smearing him with It.
This looked like going too far, to me, and
stepped back-I couldn't stand it to see the tar
smeared over his face, even if it did look like
map Of the devils wild land, as he kicked and
scratched and tried to bite swearing all the time
like pirate. 1t seemed degrading kind OF
thing to defile human being in that way The
leader came up to me and said, THAT was good
work, Dutchy Lucky l was right about its be-
ing a single-barrel, amt it? Help get his team
hitched up. We want to see him we'll started"
"All right, Mr. McGill," said; for that

county.

ing rather handicapped, because of the memory
of that poor fellow with the tar in his eyes-but
| went all the same.
McGill pounded on the door.
"Come out" ne shouted. you've got company!
There was a scrambling and hustng around
in the shanty, and low talking, and some one
asked who was there; to which McGill replied for
them to come out and see Pretty soon, little
doddering figure Of man came to the door, pull
ing his breeches with trembling hands as he
stepped, barefooted, the bare ground which
came right up to the door-sill
"Whats wanted, gentlemen" he quavered. II

He had not said two words when | knew him
for Old Man Fewkes, whom had last seen back
on the road west of Dyersville, on his way to
"Negosha." Where was Ma Fewkes, and where
were Celebrate Fourth and Surajah Dowlah? And
where most emphatically, where Rowena?
stepped forward at McGilPs side. Surely. l
thought, they were not going to tar ard feather
these harmless, good-for-nothing waits of the from
tier; and even as thought it, I saw the glimmer
ing of the fire they were kindling under the tar
kettle.

McGilI. "We'll show you that you can't steal the

HAD NAVAL OFFICER GUESSING
Seemed to Be Almost Too Much
Out of the Ordinary.

While Lieutenant Commander II. e.
Parsons, navy recruiting officer at
Houston, Tex, was sitting at his desk
a few days ago young man entered
and said he wanted to enlist.
''What is your name?" t1e officer
asked.
Bryan Dry was the reply.
''You are a namesake of William
Jennings Bryan, take it." suggested
the officer.
Eyes, SIR
"What is your home address?" was
the next question.
''Moonshine HILL"
Parsons found on further inquiry
that there is a Moonshine Hill in Tex
as and that Bryan Dry was me of its
young inhabitants. Without more ques-
tioning, the applicant was signed up
for a term Of service in the navy
Kansas City Star.

Sad Mistake

The family was awGy from town.
Their mouse was in charge of young
maid. Occasionally an old woman
came in to help with the cleaning. One
day the maid opened the front door
and was greeted by the angry woman.
"Tve been ringing and ringing and
ringing" said the latter. "Why didn't
you Gomez" You KEEP on so regular"
said the maid, that I thought if wa.
only the telephone"

There's some of 'em runnin' away!" yelled one
of the crowd Catch 'em!"
There was flight through the grass from the
back of the shanty rush of pursuit some feeble
yells jerked into bits by rough handling and pre-
sently Celebrate and Surajah were dragged into
the circle of light, just as poor Ma Fewkes with
her shoulder-blades drawn almost together came
forward and tried to tear from her poor old nus
bands arm the hand of an old neighbor of mine
whose name l won't mention even at this late
day.
"Say," said man who had all the time sat
in one of the wagons, holding the horses. YOU'D
better leave out the stripping boys!
They began dragging the boys and the old man
toward the tarkettle, and McGil, with his nat
drawn down over his eyes, went 10 the Shiny
mass and dipped into it a wooden paddle with
which they had been stirring it. Taking as mucl
on it as it would carry, he made as if to smear
it over the old mans head and beard. could not
stand this-the poor harmless old coot and ran
up and struck McGils arm.
"What in HE'LL" he yelled, for some of the
tar went on him. do you meauw

Old Man Fewkes whimperingly; "and I've got the
money promised to buy this land. So it's all
right and straight
The silly old leatherhead didn't know he was
doing anything against public sentiment; and told
the very thing that made a case against him. j
nave found out since who the man was that
promised him the money and was going to take
the land but that was just one circumstance in
the land craze and the man himself was wounded
at Fort Donelson, and died in hospital-so won't
fell his name. The point is that the old man had
turned the jury against nae just as had finished
my plea
'sYou have got the money promised yoL. have
your" repeated McGill. Grab him. boys!'
I clinched with our man, and getting a rolling
hipock on him, whrled him my head, as
I had done with so many wrestling opponents, and
letting him go in mid-air, he went head over
heels and struck ten feet away on the ground.
Then turned on McGill, and with the flat of my
hand | slapped him over against the shanty, with
his ears ringing. They were coming at me in an
undecided way; for my onset had been both sud-
den and unexpected; when l saw Rebecca run
ming from the rear with a shotgun in her hand,
which she had picked up as it leaned against
wagon wheel where ona of our crowd had left it.
"Stand back !" she screamed. "Stand back, or
I'll blow somebody's head off,
| heard cnuchling laugh from man sitting
in one of the wagons, and a word or two from
him that sounded like, Good grill" Our little
mob fell back the man | had thrown Iimpilg,
and Dick McGill rubbing the side of his lead.
The dawn was now broadening in the east, and it
was getting almost light enough that faces
might be recognized; and one or two of the
crowd began to retreat toward the wagons
"PI see to it," said l. that these people will
leave this land and give up their settlement ca
it."

tiers of providence, their stirring Incl
dents, and peaceful episodes; the
memoir of Job, so fraught with spirit
ual experience; and the domestic an
nails of Ruth, which told to her grand
son such a tale of divine foreknowl-
edge and love and care, all converging
on himself, or rather on David's son
and David's Lord; these were David's
Bible and he desired it beyond all his
riches.

Cutting Off the Last Word.

Archeologists have recently been
puzzled over the finding of the head
less body of an Egyptian princess in
an ancient tomb. 1t seems that the
question as to how the lady lost her
head is important in archeologic
circles.
In certain Oriental countries it is
customary for the head of the house,
in the event Of a domestic argument,
to behead the lady, thus cutting the
lady as well as the argument short
Doubtless, the last words that issued
from the lips of the headless princess
were: "Where have you been?"-

Unkind Remark.

A scenario writer experienced great
difficulty in getting his plots accepted.
AS rule, they were so uninteresting
that complete hearing was seldom
granted. At last he managed to per-
suade weary producer to listen to
the synopsis of his latest play.
Imagine" he began, "1midnight, all
silent as the grave.
1.-TWO burglars force open library
windows, and eventually commence
operations on the safe. The clock
strikes one"
(Which one?" yawned the producer.
