RIBBLE’S REWARD BY ANNA BLACK. F or th« first time since the Grand Army of the Republic was or ganised; for the first time since the sons of the South returned with torn battle flags to rebuild their homes and make anew their loved land, a committee of those who fought under the 8tars and Bars will appesr before the national organisation of the men who fought under the Stars and Stripes to ask of the latter a conces sion. This will take place In Minneapolis. The time will be August IS. Object, the national military parks around Atlanta. The scene will doubtless be dra matic. Decided Tuesday. This was decided at the joint meet ing Tuesday of committees which have under their* supervision the scheme to build national parks on the grounds where were fought the bat tles of Atlanta, Peachtree creek and Ezra church, and to Join the three military parks with boulevards. The committees from the city council, county commissioners, chamber of commerce, the Confederate Veterans and the Georgia division of the Grand Army of the Republic met Tuesday afternoon In the chamber of commerce to consider plans drawn ud by the city engineer of the three buttle fields and to draft a blit which will be pre sented by Congressman Livingston. The plans setting forth the number of acres which the parks will cover and other Important points were dls.'ussed. and It was decided to leave the matter of drafting the bill to a committee which will meet next week. Colonel Darnell's Resolution. After tips and other routine bust ness had been attended to. Colonel A. Darnell read resolutions passed by the Georgia encampment of the Oraud Army cf the Republic, which set forth the Jnslri of the encampment to have the nntlcnnl parks established. Mr. Darnell made the mitluii that the mat ter be taken up before the convention of the Grand Army of the Republic, to be held In Minneapolis, August JJ to 11. This was seconded by Edwin P. Ansley, and Secretary Walter G. Coop er suggested that ths committee to take th3 matter beforj the convention be composed of delegates from the orgnul/idtona which have the matter now tn charge, and that a delegation of Confederate Veterans oi among the committee. The dramatic possibilities of this scheme were at once apparent. The motion was unanimously carried. The plnn Is to have short speeches from each of the bodies represented, nnd after the speech from the Confed erate Veterans, a short address by some well known and talented orator, the matter to a climax. Moved by the committee that the national body will give their hear. Mrs. Ribble was brushing her hue hand's hat In the room which, except (or an additional cupboard where the pen girls slept, was their whole house. Ever since he had lost his scholar ship. at the age of 35, owing to the ar rival of a head master with new views and a belief In the younger men, he hail been unsuccessful. He had taken to commercial travel- lag. "I wish It were any other kind of work," he said, bitterly. "Not because li makes me lose my self-esteem. I'm past that. But people don't seem to want flro extinguishers. And there are the girls.” "They’re very well/' said Mrs. Kib ble, cheerfully. "And you're getting so thin,” he said, pausing on the threshold. "Not a bit of It,” said Mrs. Ribble, and she spoke stoutly enough. Hut when Augustus had vanished down the steep stairs, with his black bag in his hand, she wept a little from sheer weakness. It does seem hopeless,” she whispered to herself, and sat down to paint away delicately at the fans by which she made a few pence now and then to supplement Mr. Ribble’s diminutive Income. It may have been the fortitude of despair that took hold of Mr. Ribble aa he tramped westward, but it certainly seemed to him that morning that he had never felt more reeolute and com posed. A square of handsome houses. In an old-fashioned, but elegant, style of architecture that Mr. Ribble knew from experience to Indicate wealthy occu pants, distracted his attention from his reckoning, and he eyed them with the eye of a business man. Some kind of luck was certainly with him, for. In spite of the bitter cold of the weather, which varied between wind and sleet, the door was opened In less than a minute In answer to his ring of the bell. "Er—er”—Mr. Ribble pulled himself together sharply—"may I see the lady of the house for a moment?” "Is It Important?" asked the maid. Very,” said Mr. Ribble. "If vou will step this way, please, ril ask the mistress if she will see you." He employed his time In unpacking the contents of hts black bag. "Good morning. I am afraid that my father Is too busy to see any one. Can ' -7 Oh!” A radiant lady, young, with a scar let dress that was the very color to keep cold away, had flashed Into the room, suddenly encountering the row Of Juhkln's Infallible fire extinguishers (In flasks) that Mr. Ribble had heaped upon the floor. "fth." she said, “have you—dropped them ?'" 'onfuslon took hold of Mr. Ribble by the threat. "Ma-madam—I—they—apologise. Be- In* anxious to—er—dispose"— '"'hat are they?” the girl asked, curiously. "Eire extinguishers,” said Mr. Rlb- » "Would tt be possible to sell you ty? They are useful." I expect they are,” said the girl, kindly; "but, aa you see, we have an other kind already.” "I see. J am very sorry for Intrud es 1"— Mr. Ribble backed to the Something In Mr. Rlbble's broken pleadings must hare given the girl a sllmpse of his desperate anxiety, for •he smiled again, and said this time: "">11, I know that my father always a little anxious about his library, and if your flasks really do extln- lulsh"— "Permit me to show you." Mr. Rib* nle held out a sample flask In trembling hand. . "■( you would be kind enough |o hteak it over the fire?” "Like this?” (he had taken the flask and had Kent over the grate. Next moment, and before the flask had been shat tered, a tongue of flame from the log nre had leaped up unaccountably and •et her dress in a flame. She started back with a little cry of dismay, and Ribble, to his own aston ishment. heard himself saying In a calm and rather stem voice: • Stand still, please. It will be out In , minute.” And he poured the con tents of a flask on the dress. To his horror the flame shot up “faugh the Inflammable material of the dress more as if oil than anything SSHKEswaM NEW-LEASE ON LIFE and trying to sell a fraud. s| GIVEN ALBERT T.
