m/m/m A WEDDING GIFT. Mis Pursuers Set the Forest on Fire nnd Catch Him. Slow I hr (JsIIowh wss (honied and It Didn't (nut Mr Slat*. a Cent to (let Kid «r 11 ttiirilcri TerrlUr Fire In the Woods of Wisconsin. About every other mnn one meet* wound Marshfield, Wisconsin, nowadays is singed and blistered as the result of a close contact with foreBt fires. According to a letter from there the air is heavy with the nmokt, nnd at night the sky is lurid with the glare of flames, some of which are near at hand. While everybody is alert on the subject, and when a sudden ahift of the wind may mean the entire de struction of the town, the old settlers’ funds of nnecdotc ho.vo been drawn on very freely. “The best job I ever knew a woods fire to do,” said old .Jerry llassett, "was in the fall of ’80, when one of them licked up Hank Coon, the murderer. Lots of you fellows wasn’t here then, and the saw-mill hndn’t eaten into things the way it has since. A mnn hunt in those days was a terror. Hank was a .crook and had been around this section some time. Finally, one day old man llurkness of Michigan turned up murdered. Ho had pine lands up here and had been on the spot seeing about the putting up of a saw mill. No man was likely to have much money here, but Harkness had a line watch and ehnin and of course some cash, nnd when his body was found ttieso wore gone. As Hunk was missing, nobody thought twice about who had been doing that killing, and we set out with the idea of catching him be fore he could get out of liie woods. “There was about a dozen of us, and we Jost no time in getting on the trail. About a month before the murder or llurkness one of the men who was working for Lander, a Swede, who had not been iiore long, was intho woods, and we hail just given up our search for him when we heard of the crime and changed off onto Coon. There had been some fires that fall, bit they bad not scared us much. After we bail been on the track of Coon for about a week we came one morning onto what every body said was his body. The remains were hardly recognizable, but the clothes were his, Loots and hat were his, and a big born ring on one of the fingers was one which we had all seen him wear. Think ing he had starved to death, wo resolved to search t.ho clothing for Harkness’ money and jewels, but as they were not to be found we came to the conclusion that be had buried them, with the expectation of returning as soon as he thought he could do so with safety. Then we left him where he was and returning to camp, told our story. “A month after that one of our men came running in with a story about seeing lfank Coon In the woods. Nobody be lieved him at first, hut he was so certain about it that we concluded to go out with him. After a long and careful search we came upon him sure enough, the same man exactly as he was when we saw him Inst, except that, his clothing waschanged. \Ve had him covered and he had to sur render, after which, in explanation, of his strange appearance, he said that he had come upon the body of the missing Swede, und that ns the latter’s clothes wore better than his own he had changed with him for the fun of the thing. He denied most positively that, he had hud anything to do •with the murder, and expressed the great est. willingness to ncaompnny us bank to camp. Oil the way he was talking so glibly that, most of us‘forgot that he was our prisoner, and, watching his chance, he made a dive for the juuglo and was out of sight before we could realize what he was «p to. “ ‘Burn him out!’ somebody cried, and then quicker than I can tell it we agreed to spread out so ns to surround the plaoe, for wo know lie would hide after a little ■ami thou net lire to the woods. We figured that If lie did hide that would he a sure way of gettin there or to he the judge .to skip. An flour lifter that the smoke was I rising from half a dozen quarters. The i woods were dry, and hy a little careful j watching wt kept the blazes under some sort of control. Towards dark a brisk wind sprang up, and before 10 o’clock the I •old forest wits a going off like artillery j and musketry. I was on the lee side, ami ! as there were no back fires burning 1 had I the prettiest view of the blaze that a inau | ever hud. It won terrific, and 1 began to 'fear that the hoys on the other side might | not get away, but as there was nothing for j me to <lo but keen out. of danger myself 1 just stood as far .hack as win necessary to do and saw the flames spread. It, was I worse than a pow der mill. T1A heat,even ' where 1 was standing, was almost insuffer able, u:vfi every few minutes 1 had to turn my (back on the blaze ahead of me, which 1 tstemod at times to be a wall of tire reach ing from earth to sky. The reflection that "So you are going to be married, girls, lire you?” said Uncle Nahum. A little, sil ver-haired man, with deep wrinkles plowed in his parchment-like forehead, and a suit of bright, old-fashioned blue cloth, guyly garnished with brass buttons, 1 he looked grotesquely unlike_ the sur roundings of that elegant suite of drawing rooms In which he sat, like the fairy god father in an enchanted palace. "Yes, Uncle Nahum,” (Aid Nina, “we are really going to be married—Eunice and I. Will you come to the wedding?” Uncle Nahum lifted his keen gray eyes to Eunice’s face. She neither spoke nor looked up. Evidently she had no inten tion of confirming her sister’s cordial in vitation. “No, child, no,” said the old man, evi dently a little disappointed; “I’d cut a poor figure at your grand weddings. Only I hope that you have chosen well.” "There can he no doubt at nil about that,” said Eunice, haughtily; “I am to marry Mr. Lesderner. a broker, and Nina is engaged to Mr. Falconer, a gentleman of independent wealth.” Audi s’pose .you’ll have lots of pres entfl,” said Mr. Dalton. “Silver and gold aiid china fol de-rols, and goodness knows what all. Well, well, I wish I had some thing to send you that would be of use in your grand way of living.” “Your good wishes will be sufficient, Uncle Nahum.” said Eunice rather stiffly. “But I’ll tell you,” said the old man, with a brightening lace, “what I have got. Your Aunt Rebecca's receipt books —that’s my wife, deaf and gone these ten years—and there ain’t a better lot of receipts, not in the whole state of Connec ticut. You’d like that, girls, wouldn’t J Eunice broke out into a peal of irresist ible laughter, heedless of the hurt look which gradually crept over the face of the old man, hut Nina pressed her lips to his wrinkled brow and stroked his hand softly in hers. “It’s very kind of you to think of it, uncle, I’m sure,” said Nina, “and what ever you send wo shall accept gratefully. Here comes papa now to take you up to Central Park in the carriage. So let me go and get your hat.” Uncle Nahum did not prolong liis visit to the city beyond il day or two. But a few days hud elapsed when tidings came of the sudden death of the kind old man. “It’s very strange,’’said Matthew Dalton discontentedly, when the legal statement of li is brother’s monetery affairs was laid before him. “I thought Nahum was worth more money than that.” “Wo can’t always judge hy appearances, sir, you know,” said the lawyer. “No,” said Mr. Dalton, coloring mid looking somewhat easy, “you are quite right there.” Two little leather-bound receipt books worn und greasy with age, and bearing marks of frequent usage, were ouml in Nahum Dalton’s stained pine desk, labeled I respectively with the names of his two | nieces, Eunice and Nina: “To be pre- | seated upon their marriage.” “Fiddlesticks!” said Eunice, disdain fully, “I don’t want the vulgar old tilings.” “There,” said Nina, softly, “I will keep ttiem both for Uncle Nahum’s sake.” Ho, in spite of Eunice’s sarcasm, she put them carefully away among her treasures. “Who knows hut what 1 may want to make the real election cake one of these days?” she said laughingly. The double wedding came off gorgeously at the Dalton .mansion, but it proved to be the lost glitter of the expiring torch of wealth. The cuke, all glittering with its sugared fairies and pictured orange wreaths—the bridal bouquet—the very band which discoursed sweet music to the wedding guests—were obtained on credit, and not one of the luckless tradespeople was paid. For the next day Matthew Dalton’s en tire and total failure was ringing overall i lie town, and with this was also involved liu* ultimate vain of his son-in-law, Her bert Lesderner. COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, SUNDAY MORNING OCTOBER 17, lX8f>. Undoubtedly Coming FASHIONS IN HANDKERCHIEFS. Those Made (if I.lnrn *ml Silk. Perorated with Pictures .(lost In lloinund. Handkerchiefs are how used gaily deco rated with all sorts of designs—that is gentlemen’s handkerchiefs. The designs take in all phases of ives. Linen hand kerchiefs arc now hemstitched and have figures on them representing women in the various positions of the ballet and dressed in ballet costumes. These are for the bald-headed brigade. For sporting men Home of the best horses on the turf are drawn, represented gaily decorated round the borders with horse-slioes. stir rups, whips, whifflutreeB and other pieces of harness. For those who are more particular about the neatness of their dress, silk handkerchiefs are most popular. Some of these are very pretty. They are small and have a border of flowers and stripes. Japanese silk handkerchiefs are in great demand. They are very soft and are decorated in one corner. *The designs are all Japanese and are in the quaint colors used by artists of that nation. One very pre'.ty design put on as if to certify to the genuineness of tiie article, is two of the Japanese post age stamps, painted, one in red and one in green. The stamps at first sight look so natural that one thinks they aro real and only stuck on. FULL-FLEDGED TO THE SUNNY SOUTH!

I fled from the blackened track of the tiro to the cover of the wood at one side, and from tv thicket saw. half with pleasure half with regret, the tires burning dimmer and at hist., sinking into it sullen stare, which promised soon to disappear alto gether if the deluge continued. While thus straining my eyes to observe if possi- tile if t here were any of my companions in sight. I saw an object drop from one of the. charred trees at s. me distance to my loft, and heard it strike the ground with a heavy thump. The wind had risen fresh and strong from the southeast, - and l made up mj’ mind that some of the burned limbs were being shaken down. Afterwards, however, I got to thinking of Coon, and 1 couldn’t get it out of my head that he might have been the tiling that had drop ped. The rain continued all night, and hy daylight there were no fires in the vi- <unity worth mentioning. At the earliest eppor unity I stole across the burnt stretch to the tree that l had been watch ing, nnd there at its base, burned out of all semblance to a human being almost, was Hank Coon. I know who it was, lor right by his side was a gold watch and chain, half buried in the ashes. He hud climbed that tree when overtaken suddenly by the fire in the hope of sticking it out up there and from all appearuuees he had roasted as he sat in a crotch of the limbs. He must have been dead long before he fell, and I presume I had walked around there with the dead man right over my head. As the track of the fire was not over 400 feet wide at that point, we made up our minds that he had either been asleep when he found that it was on him and rushed up to his death before he thought of the danger he was running, or he waited in some hiding place so Tong that he only had time to climb the first ash that he came to. However it was, that was what happend to him, and it never cost the state a cent to get rid of that mur- For Mrs. Falconer was examining the state of her range stove with housewifely i interest.
