A BROKEN HEART.
BY M. QUAD.
A hundred men were digging
gold, and they hud named the place
“Joe White’s Dream.’’
Singular name, but they were sin
gular men—dirawny, rough, grizzled,
and some of them wicked. The
were men from the East, digging,
delving, in a sort of mad frenzy, for
the golden wealth of California.
On this day all work had ceased.
The men formed in a circle on the
grass, and in the centre was Jack
Bullet. Ilis hands were tied behind
him, there was an old -Blood-stain on
his tace, and from his wolfish eyes he
sent murderous glances from one face
, to another, and at last called out:
“I wish I had knifed some of
ye!”
None of the men replied. Seme
without a word, nor did ho look back
as long as he was in view. When he
had disappeared from sight the mi
ners returned to their work, each one
so busy with his thoughts that but
few words were spoken.
That day two weeks a man carafe
up from “ Cardboard City ” and. re
ported that Jack Bullet had been
eaten up by a grizzly. Every man
in camp felt glad then that his town
had escaped the disgrace of a hang
ing; aud in the afternoon he saw
Elder Graves shoulder a spade and
turn down into a little valley. It
was a beautiful spot, always full of
the mellowest sunshine and the pret
tiest flowers.
When the boys had knocked off
work for the day, they all descended
into the place, tor what reason no one
knew, but by a sort of common con
sent. In the centre of the valley the
earth had been heaped up like a
grave. At its head was a board—at
its foot a wild rose. On the board
Elder Graves had cut out with his
kuife:
JACK BULLET,
AGED FORTY..
Mau may not have given him
a chance,
BUT GOD WILL.
You wouldn’t- thipk those rough
men had a sentiment in their hearts,
but they saw through the elder’s mo
tives in an instant, and the roughest
man in the lot stooped down and
carefully rearranged one of the
sods. ; .
Three weeks more went by, and
one evening Jack Bullet came into
Joe White’s Dream alive and well
He stood on the little square iu the
centre of the town, and he said not a
word till the wondering men had
gathered about him. Then he poin

were pale, others nervous, and none fiUetl with teStffc an d he chokingly
seemed to relish the business on
liand, which was the hanging of Jack
Bullet. .-
By-and-by a meek and humble
looking man named Elder Graves by
the boys, entered the circle, and,
standing with one hand on the pris
oner’s shoulder, he began:
“ Jack Bullet, this is a solemn
waruiug to us all! Here is the rope
—there is the limb—and we are
gathered to hang you. You came
to Joe White’s Dream weeks ago,
poor, hungry and ill," We fed and
nursed you, and when you were well
enough to work, a full claim was
asked out of you. IIow have you
repaid us, Jack Bullet? Yon have
stolen dust from the men, brought
concords aud jealousies among us,
incited rows and riots, and last night
you were detected when about to
murder your partner and steal his few
hundred dollars. We try to be
white in this camp, and to use all
men right, hut we cannot turn you
loose to prey upon some other party.
The men are going to hang yon.’’
“ Let ’em hang—I can’t die but
once,” sulkily replied the prisoner.
“ Jack Bullet,” said the elder, “ I
am a praying man, and I want to
pray with you before you swing, I
am sorry for you. You are a strong
man, and you are to die like a dog!
Maybe you have a mother in the
East or you may havo “a wife and
children. God help them !”
Tho elder sank down on Ills knees
before the prisoner, and prayed such
a. prayer as the rocks have .never
echoed again. Before lie had fin
ished there were tears in tho eyes of
half tho men, and Big Sam went
over to Curly Jim and whispered!
“ Now that’s, what I call rcligium
—the real old hang-np rcligium, sich
as wo used to git way back iu New
Hampshire!’’
When that prayer bad ended a
new spirit came to the men. They
scanned Jack Bullet’s face and saw
that ho had softened, and as Elder
Graves stepped aside the president
of tho camp cut Jack’s bonds, and
stud:
“ Wo don’t want your blood,
though you sought ours. Yon are
free to go, Jack Ballet, but don’t you
ever enter Joe White’s Dream
again. -
The reprieved man moved away
said:
“ Boys, I sneaked back here this
momiu’ to kill some one in revenge,
but I cum across that—that grave
down—down thar, and—and—■*»
He held out his hands to the men,
and the tears blinded him so he
could not see a face. Elder Graves
went down on his-knees again, every
man with him, and there were more
tears, and a prayer so beautiful, and
tender, and true, that Jack Bullet
sobbed like a child. His heart was
broken, and all the Satan in his na
ture was driven out in a moment.
Joe White’s Dream was a mining
camp for many mouths after that,
and Jack Bullet was one of the best
men in it. The headboard grew
gray as the rain heat down and the
sun shone, and the' wild rose grew
until it covered the grave, but no
one disturbed a sod. The grave was
a sign—a beacon-light, as it were
—and perhaps miners were right
when they said of our town:
“ They’ve had a revival up thar,
an’ they arc the host chaps an’ the
hardest workers on th^ slope.”

While the hrigaclc of newsboys
were watting for their Free Presses
yesterday morning a “ cub,” walked
up to an old “ rat ” who was leaning
against the fire plug, and remarked :
“Well,' tny girl got home last
night.!’
“ You moan that contractor’s
daughter ?’’
“ Yes; just- got hack from Saryto-’
gy”
“ Pooh sneered the big boy.”
“Pooh! Your girl hasn’t been
there, nor nowhercs near it! She
takes her vacation out to Pontvac,
and travels on an exension tieket!”
“ She does, eh ? drawled the big
boy as he felt in liis pocket. My girl
has been traveling in Europe ever
since last June, paying cash down for
her board and hack hire, and she
won’t he at home for a month yet.
Tdahow you this letter, posted at
Romp’ only I don’t want you to know
liow bad she loves me.”
“ Let’s see it ?
“ Go away, bub. A boy of your
ago don’t know what love is.’’-—
