BY ALFRED CRAYON. “And you are going home?” “Yen, I am going home.” The happiness within me that found utterance in a laugh was re flected but dismally from the brown bearded face opposite me. But then Gurney was down on his luck, and that was hardly to be wondered at when a young ne’er-do-wel! like me could realize in two brief years the wealth that he had toiled for ^pa tiently during half a score in vain “And you’ll settledown in the oid country and be a steady, practical man for the future?” he said look ing at me wistfully. “Yes, and I’ll marry Janie, and make her happy and proud of me and you’ll visit us, Gurney, won’t you, to see how I have taken all your goo d counsel and my own good luck to heart ?” “Maybe; maybe; I don’t piomise,” smiling thoughtfully and stroking his silken beard as he spoke; “but you have had rnfC fortune, young one, and you do well to sit down now, and consider how to do the very best with yourself. It is not everyone who finds himself at twen ty-five with a University education and a realized fortune, and a sweet, faithful girl waiting for him at home. But that is the way of things; chance gives you that because you were a bad boy to begin with, while I, who was as steady always as Khadamantlius and the remaining judges, have a handful of nuggets for my whole capital and a grave under the wattletrees to mark the end of my love-story. Hardly fair, is it, young one?” “Horribly unfair,” I answered warmly, “J>ut your turn will come; it always does to the deserving and patient. And as to me, why my end is not seen yet. ‘Call no man happy until ho is dead,’ you know.” A faint smile broke over his face. “Do you think I envy you or grudge you anything? Oh no, I’m not such a bail fellow as that. 1 would not take from you one gleam of your contentment if I could. 1 am satisfied both for you and my self. Prosperity is the pabulum you will thrive on, while I should be the same under any fortune.” Wo were on our way together down the main street of Tarrangow- er, he coming from the store where he had been disposing of some gold dust to an agent who paid three' pence an ounce more for it than the bank price, I from the New South Wales Bank, whence I had been drawing my fortune in the form of a bulky roll of one hundred pound British notes. “It is scarcely safe to carry all that around here,” an acquaintance ven tured waYningly, as I was buttoning the money into the pocket of my moleskin trousers. “I shall take the number of the notes by-and-hy,” I answered care lessly. “You know I sail for Eng land next week.” “And why not have that money transferred to the bank there for safety, and your own comfort in traveling, and a hundred reasons?” the man asked in surprise. “I like it this way; I like the feel of it about me, and convenience is altogether a matter of opinion.” Then I went out whistling, not through dearth, but through abund ance of thought. That .bnlltv roll. r?pF»5enfetrtove, and triumph, and reconciliation with the family at home, who had feigned to despair of me once. “Oh, Janie, Janie, how fond and faithful you have been!” I thought tumultuously. “Heaven helping me, my future wili be worthier of you than my past has been.” And then I had encountered Gur ney, and, linking my arm in his, we had walked down the street togeth er while I dilated to him on ray prospects. “You go to Europe next, week, and I start up the country to-morrow, and it may be we shall never meet again,” h“ said regretfully. “Then let us drink a stirrup-cup at parting,” I said, drawing him to ward the open door of The Kanga roo. “A stirrup-cup of water, if you wiW “Preaching again!” I said, pet tishly. “No, not preaching; only urging you, by our friendship, to make me happy.” “What is it to you ?” “I like you; I want to know you safe before you leave me.” I twisted myself away from him impatiently. “No man has ever yet called me a drunkard,” I said. “No, certainly not, and I want to make sure no man ever will.” I hesitated, looking at him doubt fully. “Surely it is in the hour of our greatest triumph that we should most readily bring our sacrifices to the altar.” “AH right,” I said, flushing. “I promise.” “Promise what ?” “To ‘abstain from intoxicating drinks as beverages’ forever,” laugh ing uncomfortably. He stretched out his big hand and grasped mine. “I am satisfied about you now, young one; I never was before. Heaven bless you!” And then we sauntered into the saloon together, and drank a glass of ginger beer, amicably ehatting in a desultory way. Groups of two and three were scattered here and there about the bar, chatting noisily lor the most part, though a few drank deeply in sullen silence; but, except the lounger by the door, who stood with his hands plunged deeply in his pockets, and his slouch hat drawn low over his restless eyes; each man had some mate to reflect his humor •r contradict it. “That is the Italian fellow,” vhispered, nodding toward him. “Yes, cleaned out, or thereabouts,” Gurney answered in a low tone, and then we turned to leave together. As we passed out, some impulse prompted me to turn toward the stranger, and extending a sovereign on ray open palm, I said curtly: “Have it, mate ?” “I did not beg,” he answered cold- y speaking with a distant foreign accent. “Of course not, but it will brine you luck. Money from the pockets of a successful digger always does,” ( said lightly. “Thank you.” He took the coin from me, but held it doubtfully in his hand while he followed me with his eyes. “That fellow is desperate. I should have said nothing to him, on the principal of letting sleeping dogs lie.” Gurney remarked. “It is always well to do a kind ac tion when one has the chance,” I said carelessly. “That may stave off suicide another week;” and then Gurney and I shook hands and parted, with some vague hope of meeting somewhere, sometime, if we could. ' It was a dark night, and when >nce I had left the lights of Tar- rangower behind me, the blackness seemed to close around me with a sense ef discomfort. After all, had I been wise to carry all that money on my person, and to take my way alone and unarmed—for an unload ed pistol was a mere toy—through a district so familiar in those advent urous days with deeds of violence ? Several men saw the money at the bank and others knew that I meant to draw out my investments that day. Why had I not told Gurney and let him come home with me? Why had I not ? But, pshaw! What was the good of shrinking like a child before a dark night? There was no danger —none in the world; the men who had seen the money were as honest as I was, and once I had reached my hut I would load ftiy revolver and be ready for attack. To keep up my heart I fell to hum ming one of Janie’s old songs, while I strove to concentrate all my at tention on the path before me. I had proceeded thus half way home, and my first terrors were fading away, when, just where the uncer tain roadway dipped into a thicket of eucalyptus, a hand was laid on my shoulder, and a vibrant voice said tremulously: “Your money or your life!” “Ha, it is you, scoundrel, whom I helped^!! I said, wheeling round suddenly on my unseen assailant, “Dog of an Italian, would you dare!” It was furious indignation and scorn of such a base return of my kindness that animated me at the moment. Battling for existence or for my treasure had not occurred to me yet. “Yes, I would dare, because I am mad,” the man panted forth. “You must give me the gold; you are young, you can gain more. You have hope, I have nothing—give it me!” “Yes, I shall give you—that,” I said, striking in the direction of the voice, and then we closed with each other. After that neither of us spoke, but we wrestled like giants, while eaeh clutched the other by the throat. My money was safe still, secured by a flap and button over the pock et, according to a fashion prevail ing in the colony at the time, and my chance of life lay in the endu rance of my thews and sinews, for I knew I was confronted by a desper ate man. Round and round, backward and forward, circling restlessly, and grappling each other furiously, we went, while the sense of strangula tion dne to his grip on my throat increased as he strove to throw me. “Ten seconds more and I shall be choked,” I thought; and then I loos ened one hand from its hold of him, and struck oat with my clenched fist toward the regions of the heart. The blow told; befell like a log, being apparently paralyzed for the moment; but in falling he dragged me with him, and hi« grasp on my throat never relaxed. “I am dying,” I thought, striving with all my remaining strength to loosen his hold of me, and then my thoughts wandered confusedly to ward my mother and Janie, and the home I had meant to make for my darling; and then I remember no more. I had either fainted or been suffocated into insensibility. How long I remained thus I can not tell. When I recovered con sciousness the murderous pressure bad fallen oflj but my assailant still lay beneath me, breathing heavily. Simultaneously we seemed to re cover consciousness and in unison we rose to our feet. I was trem bling in every nerve; my aching eyeballs seemed starting from my head, my parched throat refused to utter a sound, and my assailant seemed in no better case. For an instant we stood apart, glaring at each other through the larkness; then, as though at a given signal, we closed with each other again, instinctively, neither know ing why. I believe he had no more thought then of taking the money than I had of defending it. There seemed nothing awake in us but mere animal fury; brute force op posed brute force, demanding victo ry at any cost Again we wrestled and strove, white face close to white face in the gloom, and again the contest was so equal that no spectator would have known on which side to promise victory. For many minutes we wrestled silently, and then we fell again, and this time I was under most And then ensued a struggle such as I had no idea men were ca pable of. We rolled over each oth er, we strained every nerve, each to kill the other; we dealt each other desperate blows at random, and then, when exhaustion forbade an other movement, mechanically we desisted, and as mechanically we rose and drew a few labored, gasp ing breaths, and rushed to the con test again. Whether or not my opponent was armed I know not; at any rate he made no attempt to draw any weapon. As for me, I carried my useless pistol, but even had it been loaded, I question if I would have used it after the first five minutes; the contest was so terribly close and equal that a thought of any ex traneous aid did not occur to me. Our action was wonderfully con certed; as though governed by a double mechanism we struggled, fell, rose and resumed the fight, and that after each had grown so weak that a child could have vanquished either. And through all my terrible crav ing for his life there crept, by-and- by, a slow consciousness of respect for him. He was tough as leather, and he fought well, taking his pun ishment with ail endurance that hitherto I had deemed exclusively British. When I look back on that inci- ient now I have no knowledge of ime, no memory of anything but pain and effort, and blinding blows. I can not tell how long the struggle lasted, or how it terminated. I only know that at last the end came somehow, and that, after a period of oblivion, I returned to conscious ness, and found myself alone. Howl reached home I can not tell, for I walked the distance doubt less as somnambulists do, for next day, when a neighbor came to look me up I was tossing on my bed in a raging fever, and the money that had so nearly been the price of a .life was safely buttoned In my pock et. ' " ~~ ~ Of course the Great Britain a—-, without me, and of course the friends awaiting me at home grew sick of the silence which no expla nation came to break, for what mes sage could any one send who ex pected hourly to see me die ? But the turn in my long illness came at last, and then I turned slowly and reluctantly toward im provement. I had fonght a hard battle for life beneath the shadow of the eucalyptus; that which dis ease waged against my youth later, was as deadly and more prolonged. But youth triumphed at last, and 1 rose a shadow of my old self, likely to be debarred from existence on the old glad, free, triumphant terms for many a day. It was years before the memento of my encounter with that desper ate ruffian had passed out of my system; but now, after half a life time, I can look back from my fair, happy English home on that inci dent of my career as contentedly as on any other of my colonial expe riences. As to my enemy, his body had been found in the creek while I lay at the point of death, but whether fallen there by accident or flung in through despair, I never knew. Gurney’s affairs brightened after I left him, and the last time I look ed on his honest face, as he sat be side my Janie’s sister, with my youngest boy on his knee, 1 decided conclusively that life was not so nearly over for hin\by a long way as he had imagined when good lock and he stood on opposite sides. A BASG-IP HARBIA6E. The Qaiekest Wedding an Record Take* Flare In Ohio. Squire .Beasley, of Aberdeen, Ohio, just opposite Maysville, Ky., on the Ohio river, has for fifteen years been the good angel of all runaway couples. The Sqnire is a tough, grizzled old fellow of 65 or 7o years of age, with a great fond of hard, practical horse sense at his command. He claims that 96 per cent ot the marriages he sol emnizes turn out well,' which is a strong statistical point in favor of the Aberdeen article He iaJ" available for the purpose day opr*' night. His house, a large comfort able, double structure of wood, stands near the river bank. The marriages are performed in a great front room, which was once a par lor. He claims to have perform ed some years since the quickest marriage ceremony on record. A couple from Nicholas county, youug, romantic and of high social position, fled from* home one bright star-light night in midsummer, and, mounted on fleet .horses, galloped across the country towards Mays- ville. Soon angry relatives started in pursuit. Just as the runaways were descending the ridge which overlooked the sleepy city they heard the quick clatter of horses’ hoofs and the exciting shouts of the pursuing party. Not a minute was to be lost. They spurred their jaded steeds, and at last reached the riv er bank. Their pursuers had been steadily gaining on them, however, and the broad Ohio rolled remorse lessly betweenthem and thehavenof their hopes. A boat was drawn upon the levee, and, pushing it off, the ex pectant groom helped his trembling sweetheart to a seat in the stern thwarts. Then leaping in himself, he seized the oars and paddled to the opposite shore with all his strength. When he readied the middle of the river the pursuing party gallop ed down the Kentucky bank. An other boat was procured, quiekly manned, and a half dozen pair of strong arms propelled it toward the runaways. When the first boat touched the Ohio bank and the young couple leaped ashore the pur suing party was within 200 yards of them. Quickly they ran to the honse of Squire Beasley. The old squire had been called up to unite a couple, and, having performed the ceremony, was about retiring. Suddenly the door flew open and the hunted couple dashed into the room. “Quick!” cried the man, “we are closely pursued, marry us!” There was borne to their ears a faint shout, and the Squire knew there was no time to lose. “Jine hands!”he cried. They obeyed. “Havehim?” he began, turning to the girl. “Yes.” “Have her?” he demanded of the man. “Yes.” “Hitched!” was the Squire’s la conic benediction, and then as the newly-made husband displayed a well-filled pocket-book he added: “Ten dollars!” The words had hardly left his lips when the pursuing party rushed in to the house only to witness the young couple's triumph. HUMOROUS. What’s in a >aar 1 “Matilda, what man was that you were talking to oat at the gate last night?" said Mrs. Yerger to her col ored help. “He was my brudder. He has jess come to Austin fr >m Injun Creek.' •What’s his name f" “Peter Jones.” “But your name is Snowball.” “Yes, you see Pete’s drae been married. Dat’s de reason be hain’t got de same name no moah. Ef had been married 1 would hah some idder name, too.” She Won't Be. He had been very kind and so licitous for several days and at breakfast yesterday morning he suddenly remarked: “My dear, you don’t know how bad it makes me feel to see you look so thin and careworn.” “Yes,” she softly replied. “You must have lost at least five pounds in the last month.” “I presume so.” “And that haggard expression shows overwork and need of rest.” “Yea” “Dear me! but I could never for give myself if you should go into a decline.” “See here, Henry!” she replied, as she laid down her fork and looked him square in the eye, “you want to drop that! If you think you can pack me off to the country for a month and leave you to gallop around here, you have got hold of the wrong end of the string!” He sighed heavily, but made no reply, and yet as he stood on the corner waiting for the car, and Smith asked him how his wife was, he answered: “Picking right up, thank you. She’s gaining a pound a week right along, and was never in better spir its.” The Pocket Book Test. Callow College graduates who are anxious to plunge into the whirlpool of journalism may draw their own conclusions from the story which follows: Once upon a time a newspaper man applied for admission at a place of amusement, which was denied, as he was not known to the door-keep er and had forgotten to bring his credentials with him. “Haven’t I the appearance of a jour—I beg pardon—newspaper man ? Do my looks belie me V' “Your appearance—your intel lectual get-up and insinuating ways certainly bear out your assertion,” admitted the doorkeeper. “Then why not give me the bene fit of the doubt?” “Beeause”— Then a happy thought found its way into the doorkeeper’s brain, and he said: “Let me see your pocket-book.” The pocket-book was pioduced, and merely giving it a glance the doorkeeper permitted the owner to Lore’s Yonng Dream. The other night, says a corres pondent, I overheard a real pretty little piece of love’s labor won, and it made my heart beat faster, and brought back memories of the past, it happened down on the dark end of the piazza, next to my open win- “Who r nn iove ?” »«id-he, un grammatically. “Papa,” said she innocently, with a coo. “Who else ?” said he. “Mamma,” said she. “Who else?” “Brother.” “Who else ?” “Sister.” “Who else ?” “Uncle.” “Who else?” “Aunty.” “Who else?” “Ooo”—and then I heard a whale bone snap and a peculiar gluggity, glug, glug sound that didn’t need a dictionary for translation. Ah, love’s young dream, goon; there will be an awakening some morn ing about three o’clock in the future when a bottle of paregoric and a plaintive wail will recall the hours that have been, but are no more. The American Grocer contradicts the statement which has been fre quently made that sugar is cheaper in the United States than it ever has been before. In 1648 it sold as low as 3% cents per pound. A low grade of beet sugar Is now sell ing in London at 2>; cents, which is probably cheaper th-n any other food product in teat city. That pruning is tee best which renders pruning tee least necessary. “I might be fooled by personal ap pearances,” the doorkeeper remark ed as the newspaper man disap peared from sight; “but the posses sor of such a pocket-book as that is strawberry-marked with journalism or I don’t know a journalist from a Labrador herring.” He Settled at ftute. GENERAL NEWS. this “Dat’s what ye git Irom foolin' round wid deni ye re lawyers!” he said as he joined a gronp of colored dlers of> the market-place. Being asked why he had been to see a,lawyer, he explained: “You know dat Buck Williams! Powerful bad nigger he am. Gits drank an’ kicks in doahs an’ club winders. Come round to my cabin one night las’ week an’ stove de doah in an’ wanted to clean out de shanty. I falls oat o’ bed an’ goes fur him wid an ax-handle, an’ dey war gwine to ’rest me fur ’sault wid intent to kill.” “WeU ?” “Wall, when dey tole me dat he had a cracked head, a broken arm, an’ war 1 all broke up, I wanted to settle de case. My ole woman coax ed me to go an’ see a lawyer, an’ de lawyer he taxed me $5 an’ advised me to offer Buck my ole hoss an’ wagin’ an’ $35 in cash.” “And you did ?” “An’ I didn’t! When I got home bis wife wasdar waitin’ far me, and she said if I didn’t han’ ober $2 in cash an’ a sack o’ flour she’d muti late me wid a lawsuit clean np to de Supreme Co’rt. Took mejist seben- teen ticks of de clock to settle on dat basis, an’ now I can’t be muti lated nohow. Lawyers! Dari I paid $5 to one of ’em to tell me dat I mas’ reduce myself from poverty to affluence to settle a case whar 5 de complainant didn’t ax but $3, an’ would hev gin me foty off on dat if Ihad kicked.” Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines died In New Orleans on tee 11th. aged 78 years.
