Chicago TribuM. •‘Can yon save him, doctor? "I’ll lie hanged if I know. Win gome Lillian McGuire looked n,, with her rare blue eyes full of tears im„ the fnce of the young physician, wlio hud been summoned in hot haste fr.mi the restful quiet of a poker game t.. the palatial residence of Stuyves- siint McGuire, in order that his skill aud knowledge—the fruit of years of study and toil—might, if possible, bring hack to health the gray-h^irpJf old iuiiu who now lay tossing in mor tal agony. Lillian McGuire hnd known Aris tides W. Hennessey since the days when they were both little children together, nnd not six months before she bad stood before him in all her regal beauty, her velvety eyes draped with tears, and while the soft pearly Dealt of her beantifal arms touched his neck with a pulsing warmth that would make your head swim, had said she could never love him except as a brother. As Aristides had three sisters and had passed the greater portion of his life sparing with them, this nnswer ltd not strike him favorably, and he went away with a dull, dend feeling in Ins young, blithesome heart, and a large chunk of plug tobacco in his merry spring pants. And now be was bock again in that house—that honse from which he bad erstwhile so often stolen silently and sadly away when the proprietor was nr' speetedly found at home, nhd winch he had left, as be supposed, for good, in the balmy days of June, when the sweet-scented breath of ear ly summer was kissing into life the myriad forms of floral beauty that lie wr b such silent sweetness upon the verdure-clad bosom of the earth. These thoughts had surged through hi- mind as he mounted the frout steps in obedience to the hasty sum mons of a liveried servant. Ho saw the old familiar door-mat with the word “Welcome” wonted in its centre—that fateful word that had gleamed up at him in all its lurid dis tinctness and mockery one night when old Mr. McGuiro opened the door in respouso to Aristide’s timid yank at the hell, and said in the cold, County Antrim tones ho knew so well how to ii-o, that Miss Lillian was not home and would not ho sov. n or eight years. In the hall stood the hat rock be side whoso fragrant frame with its spoctre-liko arms he had so often lin gered in tho mellow half-light of tnrued-down gas, with Lillian’s bend resting trustingly above bis liver pad aud her coraline corset pulsing gently against his suspender. All these scenes came buck to him with vivid distinctness, ns ho stood by tho bedside of the sick mini, and looked tenderly down ut Lillian, who, with pale face aud rumpled hang, had knelt by her father’s side and buried her nose in the pillow w hich support ed his head. Presently sho looked up at Aris tides with a weary, yearning, St. Lou is look that would have melted Charles Francis Adams. The young man bent quickly for ward. “Lillian, my love,” he said, “can it be possible that—’’ "Kneel by my side,” said the girl, in tender porter-house steak tones that thrilled his very blood. Unmindful of the hngginess in the knees of Ills pan - that such action would certainly produce, iinniindfiil of ewi thing bn: the fact that lie loved Lill ian McGuire with a wild pns-iou- ate, Deurlxirii :.v.-iiue love, that recked j not of Iimtiuec tickets or iei-ci»utn, | Al l-tides klielt hv the girl’s sioc, ;,nd . placing bis strong right aim around her taper wii;-l, lie kissed her lender- j ly just ahull .u-r starboard ear. It wasn't i very easy job to lattle^ this young i i hi. “Do yon still love,me, Aristides," said Lillian, making a bluff ti blush as she spoke. “V u know I do," wa- ihe reply, | "and that I would ri-k m\ ery ex- 1 gain your any m reiuru. The girl smiled a glad six-button smile. “I believe you,” said she, “nnd I will tell you now—here in the pres ence of BicknesB, perhaps death—that if you save my father’s life, my dar ling, idolized, sour-mash papa, I will marry yon ere the croons sprouts.”' "Enough,” replied Aristides, rising to bis feet, “your father shall be saved. I aware it by my balidorn. I don’t know what balidorn means, and like as not I haven't got one, but I swear it all the same. Bring me A bottle of Biordan’s Beady Belief.” The medicine was brought nnd the sick man quaffed it Two minutes later he was well. “You have saved him, ray darling!” said Lillian, kissing Aristides foudly, “and I will redeem my promise. But tell me, sweetie, what ailed the old man ?” “Colic,” was the reply, and with a wild and mocking laugh, Aristides fled into the darkness. The Deifll’e Tramping Ground. Oulf letter In the Wilmington (W. 0.) star. Io this county, about three miles from the Randolph line, is a place that has been known to the oldest in habitant nnd his grandparents as the “Devil’s Trumping Ground.” Situat ed in the woods nnd surrounded by giant trees, principally red-oak and short-leaf pines, is a circle about twenty-five feet in diameter, as perfect as though drawn with a compass, the circle being marked by a path as clean us though used every day;'-through the centre another path, equally ns clean, about one degree to tho east of north of south; no paths to and from and none except cow-paths in the neighborhood. The soil of the coun try is red clay, thickly strewn with rocks, and no grass, except short scrub blades that struggle rather un successfully for existence. The soil within the circle is sand, mixed with day, aud covered with a thick growth of long wire glass (not another hunch of which grows within eight miles of the place), and which never crosses the path that marks the circle, aud though large trees have grown and rotted to the ground at.' the edge of the plat, lint "lie has ven’nred to in trude within the ling. The natives have all of them a super.-litious dread of the place, and it was with difficulty I succeeded in getting one of them to visit the plnee with me for tho pur pose of digging into it, and after get ting down at mat three Toet aud find ing nothing, ho was so impressed with the supernatural origin that he refused to go any further.
