Mr. Glister’s Rural Dean.
Mr. Glister stood at hit own sjiop
door and looked out upon the al
most empty Cathedral Close of
Ravensthorpc. He was one of
the fine old race of country got(l»
smiths and jewelers now fast be
coming extinct—proud of his Ini i-
ness and long untarnished hi tory
of the firm.
Mr. Glister was a warm man.
He looked it with bis rich, rosy
(omple; ion,Lightened by his ori<p,
iron-g ay Imir and silvery whisker,
liis poitly waistcoat crossed by a
modestly solid watch chain, and
the handsome diamond ring which
was his solitary vanity in the
urticlo of dress.
“Here he is again,’’ said Mr.
Glister.
A portly elderly gentleman in
the drj;S of a rural dean tunic l
the <orner of the Close and came
brikly along the pavement. From
his countenance beamed forth be-
n vcloriee and good will to all men
and from his gleaming shoes and
and his neatly stockinged calves lo
his jolly poi twine face and clerical
hat liis whole face seemed one
solid spado. As ho paisod Mr.
Glister ho gave him a causal glance
ot such (ordialty that the jeweler
felt embol led to salute him with a
bow, a courtesy returned by the
reverend ger.t’eman with a brisk
‘•Goood morning.” and u yet
bioa ler smile as he went by.
Next morning Mr. Glister was
again at his post of obsersevation,
and at liis accustomed hour the
elderly cleric was again dc3Gi'icil
upon 5Ko pavement. The jo well av
had mlieady begun to feel a friend
ly', alin-st an affectionate interest
In the old gentleman whose ap
pearance war so inviting, whose
voice s i jovial, whoso charity so
ready and assuming.
His attention was coinpletly ab
sorbed by the approach of liis new
acquaintance that he bad no c-ars
for the quickly approa.-hing step of
a young man advancing i:i the con
trary direction. The rural dean
was just opening his lips to reply
to Mr. Glister’s morning salute,
when the young man paused pre
cisely opposite tli3 jeweller, and,
extending his hand, hailed the old
dignitary as “Uncle.” The rover
,-nd gentleman turned with a quick
start and a stumble, which, but for
the young man’s restraining hand,
would have brought hi in to the
ground.
“You young villain,” panted the
old man, “you will never bj satis
fied until you have been the death
of me!”
The young fellow expressed af.
jcctionate contrition for liis ab
ruptness. but bis venerable relative
was evidently m )re shaken by his
sudden appearance than it seemed
likely so lobust a:i old gentleman
would h ive been by so slight an
occurrence. He trembled and
leaned upon his nephew’s arm for
.jupport, and was so evidently af
fected that Mr. Glister begged him
to enter and seat himself in the
shop until liis composure should re
tu’ n.
The offer was ac opted and the
rural dean was bestowed in a chair.
The jeweller made hospitable of
fers of wine and a glass of. wate--,
which were refused, the old man
tapping himself upon the reg'on of
the heart, and shaking his head, to
indicate to him that his malady
lay there and was beyond the pow
er of such medicaments as he p-o-
pose Mr. Glister and the neph
ew stood besid? him with respect-
lal concern.
“You should be mote careful,
Edward, my boy—von should be
more careful,” ho said presently, in
a peevish tone,
“My dear uncle,” said the young
man, “I was never more ashamed
in my life. But you aro bette r
ifbw?”
“Yes," said the old gentleman;
>‘I am better It is passing, I am
extromely obliged to you, sir,”
turning to Mr; Glister, “extremely
obliged for your prompt kindness.”
Mr. Glister begged him not to
mention it.
“But I must,” said the rural dean.
‘‘It was extremely good of you.”
Mi\ Glister was happy to have
been of the slightest aervioe, and
deprecated further speech concern,
ing it.
“And what brought you here 7 ”
demanded the old gentleman of his
nephew, ‘ to frighten your old un
de, who thought you were a hun
dred mile i off, and more?”
“Can’t you guess?” asked the
young man, with an embarrassed
laugh.
“Ha!" said the old gentleman,
beaming'y. He was quite rccov
tred now, and had got back all his
accustomed geniality. “Love's
young dream—eh? That’s it—
eli?”
The good old man so enjoyed his
little joke, and so shook and beam-
ed over it, that Mr. Glister could
not himself refrain from a sympa
thetic smile.
“You have not seen Maud yet, I
suppose?” said the rural (lean;
“No; I was coining straight from
tlie station to call when I met you.”
“And nearly frightened the 1-U
out of me,” said tbe old man, ris
ing from his chair. “I was just on
my way to see her, and, since we
have met, we will thank Mr. Glis
ter for his very kind attentions,and
go together.”
Accordingly, after reiterated
thanks of the warmest nature, they
left the shop, and went down the
street arm-in arm, very lovingly to
gether, leaving M-r. Glister boa ing
his adieus upon the step.
Any stiftnge face appearing in
Ravensthorpe during the dead sea-
hoii is pretty certain of remark,and
that same afternoon Mr. Glister,
from his usual coign of vantage, no
ticed a broad built man in very
tight trousers and tall whit* hat,
which gave him, to the jeweler’s
eye, something of a sporting ap
pearance,lounging in an unoccupied
fashion on the other side of the
narrow street which opened into
the Close, ft a took Mr. Glister’s
eye at once, so completely unlike
was he to the natives about him.
Ho rolled a little in his gait and
jawned frequently, and he had a
trick of stroking with the top of
his fingers a ragged mark or scars,
as of an old wound imperfectly
cicatrized, upon liis smoothly-shav
en cheek.
I’resontly he strolled away out
of sight on the other side of the
cathedral, and Mr. Glister forgot
him. He remembered after that
the stranger's disappearance was
almost exactly coincident in time
with the entrance into the shop of
the young fellow who owned the
rural dean f n- uncle, and had so
startled the reverend gentleman
that morning.
The young man's business was
soon explained. He wished to see
some articles of jewelery suitable
for presentation to a young lady.
Nothing too extravagant; the sim
pler the better.but good Mr.Glis-
ter understood perfectly, and pro-
a bracelet, and some rings. He
aeemod to have admirable taste,
and his ideas of simplicity in mat
ters of jewelery seemed to Mr.Glis
ter to be of a most aristocratic el.is
tieity.
He was hesitating between the
different attractions of a diamond
and a sapphire ring to complete his
purchase, when the door opened
and his unde entered.
“Ah,” he said, cheerily, “you
hare—eh?” And on the same er
rand ns mysalf, I see. Very pret
ty! vs—ry pretty!” he remarked,
examining his nephew's purchases.
“Have you all you want? Then, if
Mr. Glister will be so good,I should
like to see what lie can do for nto ”
‘Now, my dear uneio,” said the
young man, imploringly, “he mod
erate, Really, Maud wilt be quite
content with these!"
“Tut, tuU” said the old man.
“Aro you the only parson in the
world who cun make a present to
a young lady?"
Mr. Glister produced a second
case, and the old gentleman, gen
ially pooh-poohing his nephew’s
affectionate remonstrances, chose
various articles of a rich Rnd ex.
pensive description; then inquired
of Mr. Glister the sum for which
he stood indebted to him, he pro
duced a plethoric pocketbook, and
handed over the amount in notes,
an example which his nephew fol
lowed.
Thoy were just in tbe act of be
stowing their purchases in their
pockets, when the door opened fer
the second time, and there stood
tlw Lrovl-luiiU nun whom Mr.
Glister bad noticsd that aftei noon
with the tall whita hat, the tight
trou. ers, and the scar npon his
cheek.
To Mr.Glistcr's utter amazement
tho benevolent eccleaiastic dropped
limp and gasped into a chair.
The young man made a rush for
the door, but the new-comer was
tooquhk for him. There was a
struggle, a stumble, a sharp mat il-
lic “click,” ami behold the pros,
pcctive bridegroom and nephew of
h rural dean tearing and cursing on
the floor with a pair of handcuff*
on his wrists!
“Take it easy, sir,” said the
white-hatted one; “it's all right.”
mi-. Glister was all abroad, and
amazed and wonder-stricken.
Tbe new-comer was ealm as roan
could be.
“Get up,” ho saiJ, to his man
acled captive.
The young man obeyed, and,
sitting in a chair at the counter,
glared at his captor.
“I’m Inspector Roberts, Scotland
Yard,” he continued to Mr. Glister.
The rural dean groaned.
“You know me, don’t you?” said
Mr- Roberts, smiling on him in
recognition of his identity. “1
came down hero for a breath of
country air. Walking about.! saw
these chaps, first one, then tho oth
er, then bo'.h together. Saw ’em
come iu here. Had dealings be
fore with ’em and know their play
ful little ways, and so I thought
I’d watch. H ind Min out, your
reverence.”
The rural dean groaned anew,
and deposited his little parcel on
the counter.
“Now, you to the youngar
man. 4 Oh, I forgot, you can't;
You’ve got ’em on. Begging your
pardon.” He inserted his heads.
been hurriedly examining them
during the inspector’s latter pro
ceedings—'‘and all sham!”
-Quite so!” Mr. Roberts said lan
guidly, but with a aha le of amuse
ment in his voice. “I'll trouble
yon for ’em, sir; they'll be wanted
at the trial. So will they,” he ad
ded, pointing to the little parcels.
“If you'll make a note of all there
is there, I'll take ’em and give yon
a receipt.”
Mr. Glister, mu oh shaken by tho
events of tbe last few ininutos, set
himself to the task. Inspector
Roberts produced a toothpick, and
continued his conversation with his
captives with the ealm playfulness
which distinguished him.
“Didn’t expect to see mo, Jem
my, eh?” he demanded of the atriek-
en cleric. “Bit of a shock, ain’t it?
Never mind, old man; you’ll g< t
over it in a quiet retreat which
awaits your declining days. That
the memorandum,sir? Sure you’ve
got everything dewn? Thera you
aro.” He signed, and, handing
back the paper, methodically stow
ed away the packets in an inner
,ocket.’‘ “All ready?" he deman-
led of his prisoners. “Off we go,
then. You'll hear from the au •
thorities in a day or two, sir, when
you'll bo wanted.” he said to Mr,
Glister. “We’il spare you all the
trouble wo can. Now, march."
ur. Glister waited a day—two—
days— and no saminons to appear
against the criminals reached him
from any quarter. Itather mysti
fied by this, he went to the local
superintendent and asked for ad-
vVos. The tuperlnLenOant looked
grave, hut simply promised to make
inquiries and communicate tho re
sult. The iK'Xt Jay a man walke 1
into tho shop and asked for Mr.
Glister. The stranger gave Lis
name as Green, of Sootland Yard.
To hi ii Mr. Glister recounted tlie
nefai ious deeds of the rural dean
and his nephew,and tlie acts of In >
Hpejtor Roberts.
“There is no such name at Scot
land Y'ar.l, sir, it is pretty plain
He was one of tbe gang—a con*
federate.”
Mr. Glister staggered as ifGre ;n
had allot him.
But why?” he asked, “why was
lie wanted! They had the goods
and were going away with them
when he'entered
“Y -e-s,” aaid Green, thoughtful
ly. “You didn’t hapjien to leave
’em all together in the shop, did
you?”
Mr. Gliatcr confessed that he had
done so, and gave a reason for doing
“Have you mi.scd anything—
anything more, I mean, than the
man Roberts took away with him?”
“Yes, six rings and a brooch. I
couldn’t think what had become
of them. I'm sure they were not
among the purchases. He:-e is tho
note. But I see it all now.”
“Well, Mr.Glister, of course the
Yard will do all that's possible.
I know the in in with the scar on
his cheek, and 1 daresay some of
our men may know the other two.
We’ll do all we can—you may de
pend on that; but I fear you’ll nev
er see your jewels again.”
And, indeed, he never did!—Our
Country Home.
