bird was hanging Gentlemen, it was
never hotter in any bake oven than
it was in that room. As soon as she got
the bird cage 1 dragged her back through
the hall
“The smoke was not so thick now, be
cause the fire had got a free draft
through the house and was making a
fearful roar and spreading rapidly.
When we reached the stairway, the
whole lower end of it was ablaze I
dragged the girl away to the front win
dow, but by that time the whole veran
da was on fire. The crowd outside saw
ns and shouted something, I couldn't
tell what. I saw that there was no es
cape over that burning veranda. When
the people outside began to shout, the
girl fainted. I threw her across my
shoulder aud started for the rear of the
house, because I knew that was my
only salvation. The whole stairway was
ablaze by that time, and flames were
creeping np through the floor I closed
my lips tightly, and in about four leaps
1 reached a back window Outside there
was a big tree, almost brushing the
window. I kicked ont the window sash
and simply jumped into the tree. It
was the only thing to be done. Luckily
I got my arm over a limb, which sagged
witli us and dropped us to the ground.
I scrambled to my feet and ran, with
the girl still hanging absolutely limp
and helpless over my shoulder. I went
Straight for the river with the intention
if jumping in. The heat was something
deadly. It had driven away the men
Who had been filling their buckets at
the river.
“Just as I staggered down the river
bank I saw a skiff. Some one had prob
ably rowed across the river to the fire,
for the boat was not fastened. I drop
ped, with the girl, into the boat and
gave it a strong push out into the cur
rent, and in a few seconds we were
floating down stream and were safe. ’ ’
“She had the canary, I suppose?” said
the lightning dentist.
“Oh, yes. She was in a dead faint,
but she hadn’t let go of the cage. As
soon as I recovered my breath and wot
my clothes in two or three places where
they were on fire I splashed water in
the girl’s face and she recovered con
sciousness, but she was so flustered and
excited that she didn’t know where she
was or remember what had happened.
‘‘ We could look up the river and see
tbe burning house. It made a huge
blaze and threw a bright glare across
the river. I remember the peculiar
effect of this glare ou the windows of
the houses across the river. It caused
them to glow as if the houses were filled
with live flames. The girl was so fright
ened that she thought all the houses
were afire.
“When I got ready to row back, I
discovered that I hadn't any oars. The
current was swift, and we were drift
ing rapidly, so I pulled out a seat board
and used it as a rudder, aud in a few
minutes I made a landing near a house
occupied by a Mr. Wesley. Miss Jaynes
was still so weak and nervous that she
could hardly walk, but I assisted her to
this house aud aroused the inmates.
They would hardly believe my story at
first, but they could see the burning
house up the river, and they recognized
Miss Jaynes as soon as the lights were
brought
“The woman of the house was very
kind. She cared for the young lady
tenderly for about two hours and had
one of the boys drive us back to (Jrosby
ville. Now, in the general excitement
we had forgotteu that the people in Cros
byville had no reason to believe that
we had escaped from the burning house
Miss Jaynes said several times, ‘I sup
pose father is wondering where I am, ’
but she Jiad no idea that he and all the
others were convinced that we had per
ished in the flames. However, you
couldn’t blame them for thinking so.
The window from which I had leaped
was well hidden by trees, and there was
no one at the river bank when we leaped
into the boat. We learned afterward
that the men had pulled down the burn
ing veranda and had planted a ladder at
the front window where we had been
seen, but the blaze was so fierce that
they had been driven back.
“Every one supposed, of course, that
we were lost, so you can imagine what
happened when we drove up in front of
the ruins about 7 o’clock in the morn
ing. They were already searching for
our bodies. Yes, sir, they thought we
were ghosts. As soon as I explained to
them how we got away you never heard
such cheering in your life. They lifted
Miss Jaynes out of the wagon and took
her over to a neighboring house to
which the captain had been taken. He
had been almost wild with grief. Those
who went over to the house say it was
one of the most affecting meetings that
could be imagined First he wept like
a baby, aud then he jumped up and
laughed like a boy and said he didn’t
care for the loss of his buildings so long
as his daughter was safe. I suppose his
daughter must have given him a very
favorable account of my efforts in her
behalf, for presently he came out of the
house and walked up to where I was
staudings and said; ‘Mr. Horne, yon
have done me the greatest service that
one man can do another. All that I
have is at your command now and for
ever. I once did you an injustice. Yon
have repaid me. Will you take the hand
of a man who honestly admits himself
beaten and humiliated?’ I said to him:
‘Captain, you are a brave and gallant
man, but yon were mistaken for once.
Let ns say no more about the misunder
standing of the past. ’ We shook hands,
aud from then forward we were friends.
He was a man of passions and preju
dices, but if he came to know you and
like you he was the truest friend a man
ever had. ”
“There’s only one thing needed to
make that a good story,” suggested the
dentist. “You ought to say that y»u
married the captain’s daughter. ’’

HAS BYRON’S SWORD.
A CHICAGO LADY WHO ENJOYS THIS
PROUD DISTINCTION.
How It Came to Hang With Two Other*
In Her Dining Room—The Great Peat'*
Interest In the Canoe of Greece—Oriel
at Hlo Untimely Death.
Between the windows of a pleasant
Chicago dining room hang three crossed
weapons. Worthy companion blades are
these, each drawn in the cause of free
dom—two by plain Maine Yankees and
one by an English peer. They and her
father’s portrait are the most cherished
possessions of a gentle, white haired
widow. They are the precious relics she
strained every nerve to save on that Oc
tober day a quarter of a century back
when she saw her home and her hus
band’s business and the whole great
city go up in flame.
One weapon is a yataghan gallantly
wielded by her father in the war for
Grecian independence; another is a
plain United States army saber, worn
by her husband in our own civil war;
the third was carried by a more illus
trious and a more unhappy though no
braver soldier, George Gordon Noel
Byron, sixth Lord Byron of Rochdale
and greatest poet of his age.
This one has an embossed silver scab
bard, a Damascus blade with a golden
sentence in Arabic engraved upon it,
which it chances has uever been trans
lated. It may be something quite com
monplace—“ Great is Allah,and Moham
med is his prophet”—or perhaps the
mere name of the maker. Still it never
has been translated and adds one more
element of romance to the coronet aud
the initial B upon the hilt.
Byron, as every one knows, never
lived to draw that sword himself for
Greece, though he threw himself into
her quarrel full of military ardor,
though he gave her his fortune, his
mighty name and in the end his life.
As his friend Trelawney wrathfully
puts it, he was induced to stick for
three months at Missolonghi, “that
mud bank, shut in by a circle of stag
nant pools which might be called the
belt of death. ”
Here he raised loans, drilled troops,
negotiated the release of prisoners, la
bored to reconcile the various Greek
factions, faithfully performed all the less
showy parts of war, till fever clutched
him, and suddenly the news of his death
shocked Europe. It was the extinction
of a luminary at the zenith. It was the
useless sacrifice of a splendid genius in
the prime of fame and of manhood.
Scott said it seemed as if the world had
come to an end. No man but Napoleon
ever filled such a place in the thoughts
of his contemporaries.
About the time that indignant Tre
lawney beside the miserable bier of his
friend was gathering up his last letters
the profile of his daughter Ada, “with
other tokens that the pilgrim had most
cherished scattered on the floor,” an
American volunteer was preparing to
join the Greek forces. Shortly after his
death Jonathan Peckham Miller of
Montpelier came inquiring his way to
Byron’s house at Missolonghi, now used
as a meeting place for the government
of western Greece. He had served two
years in the United States army and
was almost immediately given the rank
of colonel on the staff of George Jarvis,
a New Yorker who had command of
Lord Byron’s brigade. There were other
Americans fighting the Turks. Indeed
foreigners of all kinds were scattered
through the ranks. Trelawney, his fel
low countryman, Colonel Gordon; Colo
nel Fabvier, the gallant Frenchman, and
Dr. Mayer, the Swiss, who kept a valu
able journal of the siege of Missolonghi,
were but a few of the many bold ad
venturers. Colonel Miller served to the
end of the war with an intrepidity that
won him the nickname of the “Ameri
can daredevil.” Many exploits of his
are narrated, but no man who went
through the famous siege of Missolonghi
needs a certificate of courage.
Colonel Miller secured the sword at
an auction of the effects of a young
Greek captain to whom Byron had pre
sented it shortly before his death.
Colonel Miller lent the sword and
some valuable costumes to one Castinos,
an errant Greek lecturer. His lecture
tour over, Castinos sailed back to his
own country without troubling himself
to return these borrowings. All trace
of them was lost, and one would sup
pose America had seen the last of
Byron’s sword.
Colonel Miller’s daughter was but a
child at this time. She grew up, was
married to Abijah Keith and took up
her residence in Chicago. In 1868, long
after her father’s death, she was travel
ing with her husband in Greece, being
everywhere well received out of respect
for his memory, and the desire to get
back the sword he had valued so highly
grew upon her. One day in the Mediter
ranean boat she was led to speak about
it to a Greek fellow traveler. It seemed
an absurd and useless thing to ask him
if he chanced to know a Greek named
Christopher Plato Castinos.
“Absurd or not,” said he, “I know
the man. He is keeping school in the
island of Syro. ’ ’
To Syro accordingly the travelers
proceeded. Here the American consul
proved to be Mr. Evangelides, the ac. opt
ed brother of Julia Ward Howe. He
stood ready to do anything in his power
for friends of Dr. Howe. Castinos was
seen and made no difficulty about re
turning the prize, with humble apolo
gies. In Athens Dr. Russ and George
Finlay unhesitatingly identified it

young woman.

AUNT JOHN.
When old Aunt John started in to
sell newspapers at the bridge, sho had
a sorry time of it for awhile. The boys
looked upon her as a dangerous business
rival, because her withered arm and her
pinched face touched the pocket nerve
of the passersby so often that she
created an appreciable diminution in
the daily receipts of even Nosey Geoghe
gan, who had long enjoyed the prestige
of being the autocrat of the row, a posi
tion he maintained by vociferation or
by force of arms, as occasion demanded.
Bnt Aunt John didn’t care a torn paper
for Nosey, and for that matter she de
fied him from the very day she began
calling out in cracked treble the printed
lies and the printed truths she had for
sale.
Nobody knew where Aunt John came
from, and nobody cared. The name by
which she was known was bestowed
upon her by the boys themselves and
was due to her habit of addressing
everybody as “John”—rivals and pa
trons alike. She bad a small, wizened
face, parchment as to color and triangle
as to shape, with a tufted chin as the
apex, and a pair of large dark eyes, that
were probably handsome eyes years ago,
when her cheeks were rounded and rosy
and her wrinkled throat full and white.
Her figure was bent, and when she
walked it was with a sort of wabble
and hop, the punishment that followed
the paralysis and shriveled the tissues
of the poor, useless arm.
And what a curious tiling that arm,
or, rather, the hand that belonged to it,
was! High and curved at the wrist,
long, tapering fingers arid white as ala
baster —the hand of a patrician on the
body of a plebeian. It swung to and fro
like the hand of a jointed doll, and on
the third finger there shone with a
dimmed luster a worn circlet of gold.
And every day after Aunt John had
wound a string around her old fash
ioned portmomiaie with her teeth and
her living hand she would take the cold
fingers of its dead fellow into her lap
and caress it as a mother would a child,
crooning a mumble of words under her
breath.
The old woman was impervious to
ridicule or abuse. She pushed forward
to sell her papers with the rest of them,
and gave no heed to the pulling at her
skirts or the angry expostulations of her
younger competitors. So, when they
found that neither tricks, threats nor
cajolery could move her, Aunt John
was left to herself, and her old purse at
night was the fullest of all, not even
excepting Annie, who stood at Frank
fort street and did what was generally
believed to be the biggest business on
Newspaper row.
One day, perhaps it was a little more
than a year after Aunt John made her
appearance, a small, fragile lookiug
boy, with round, blue eyes and big blue
veins in his forehead, essayed a timid
attempt to enter tbe ranks of the juve
nile news venders, who had come to look
upon the bridge entrance as their es
pecial and exclusive territory. He was
immediately pounced upon, the four pa
pers he had started with as stock in
trade were tom from him and he was
cuffed and knocked about until he near
ly fainted from fright and pain. Aunt
John had seen scores and scores of fights
between the boys—some of them savage
and vicious, but she paid no moro atten
tion to them than she did to the clatter
ing teams that came over the span from
Brooklyn.
With one as with the other, she kept
out of the way, but when the attack
was made on the frail child with the
china blue eyes she uttered a strange
cry and sprang forward like a tigress,
buffeting the attacking party with a
strength that seemed almost marvelous
in such a bent and twisted frame. So
taken by surprise were the assailants
that they scattered like chaff before the
wind as their victim sank down ex
hausted on the stone steps that led up
to the promenade.
Aunt John had never been seen to
take any interest in a human being be
fore, and it was something so strange
to see her stoop down and wipe the
blood from the child’s face that Nibsey
Clark, the side partner of Nosey Geo
ghegan, gave vent to his wonder by ex
claiming, “Hully smoke, de old woman
"ygLback on eart!” and summoning a cou
pleolLeompanions w ho had not been in
the fleeuhKJ* lo * s to witness the spectacle.
Whatever AV it; J ohn m# y aYe said to
■■■ikllkiiiUliiilLiL
the bridge, but he germed to be fading
away.
The veins in his forehead became
bluer and his white skin tiecame whiter.
He coughed and coughed, and some
times the blood would gush from his
month, and he would totter over to the
curb and let the life current splash into
the gutter. On these occasions the grief
and terror of old Aunt John were piti
abla She would throw her papers beside
the boy, kneel on them and put her
good arm about his head, moaning all
the while like an animal in distress.
After the kid. as the others called him,
had rocovertd from one of these hemor
rhages he would be desperately weak
for at least an hour, and Aunt John
would watch over him until he was able
to walk.
One day the old creature came to the
bridge alone. She was in a strange and
unusual state of excitement and made
no attempt to sell any palters. She
Bought ont Nosey Geoghegan and in her
half paralyzed way of speaking made
him understand that she wanted him to
go with her, and Nosey, not being a
bad fellow at heart, only a little loud
mouthed at times, took Aunt John by
the arm and walked with her to the
tenement
On a cot under the window lay the
kid. His wan hands were crossed over
his breast and between his finger tips
was a faded daguerreotype, which the
old woman tenderly removed and hand
ed to Nosey. The newsboy saw the pic
ture of a fair haired boy, with wide
open eyes, aud he looked at the child
on the bed. The likeness between the
two was startling enough to impress
even the unimpressionable Nosey, but,
of course, the daguerreotype was that
of another boy, for on the back was
pasted a slip of paper on which was
written: “My darling boy, John, died
July 8, 1863, aged 7 years and 4
months, the day his father was killed
at Gettysburg. ”
When Nosey looked again he realized
that the kid whom he thought to be
asleep, so peaceful was the smile on his
parted lips, was dead. Aunt John was
on her knees alongside of the cot, with
her withered hand resting inert on the
floor and her living arm thrown over
the corpse, while the faded picture was
pressed to her lips. She got up after
awhile and made Nosey understand that
she wanted an undertaker. So he went
out to get one and incidentally to relate
his experiences to his fellows, who im
mediately made up a purse of #1.45,
which four of them took to Aunt John,
telling her in their rough way that it
was to buy a “wreaf of flowers fur the
kid.” She took the money and, greatly
to the surprise of the donors, patted
each one of them on the head.
On the Sunday following—this was
on Friday—there was a funeral from
the top floor of the tenement, and when
the undertaker's assistant carried out
the slender coffin he saw a daguerreo
type tied on the lid with a bit of twine,
and the old woman told him she want
ed it buried with the body. Her old
heart was broken, and the remainder of
other and happier days must be laid
away with the memory. And the un
dertaker did as she wished, and heaped
the clods on the coffin aud the picture.
Aunt John was never seen at the
bridge again. She disappeared as sud
denly and as mysteriously as she came,
and the boys to this day are of the odd
and homely opinion that she “dried up
and blowed away, ” because grief turned
her blood to dust.—Vincent G. Cook in

GOODFOR EVERYBODY
and everyone needs it at all times of the
year. Malaria is always about, and the
only preventive and relief is to keep the
Liver active. You must help the Liver a bit,
and the best helper is the Old Friend, SIM
MONS LIVER REGULATOR, the RED Z.
Mr. C. Himrod, of Lancaster, Ohio,
says: “SIMMONS LIVER REGULATOR
broke a case of Malarial Fever of three
years’ standing for me, and less than
one bottle did the business. I shall use
it when in need, and recommend it.”
Be sure that you get it. Always look for
the RED Z on the package. And don’t
forget the word REGULATOR, it is SIM
MONS LIVER REGULATOR, and there is
only one, and every one who takes it is
sure to be benefited. THE BENEFIT IS
ALL IN THE REMEDY. Take it also for
Biliousness and Sick Headache; both are
caused by a sluggish Liver.

“Well, that beats my time!” said the

FOR MAN OR BEAST
It is the Most Reliable Liniment Ever Manufact
ured in any A?ce or Country.
A LINIMNT that penetrates muscles, membranes and tissues
to the very bone itself. It, cures diseases and banishes pain with a
power that has astonished thousands and will continue to make cure*
that will surprise the millions yet to come. For the last three years
thousands of men and women have testified to the all-healing virtues
of this great remedy. It has cured more ailments, stopped more pains
and given better satisfaction than any other liniment ever prepared
for man or beast.
We challenge a refutation of this statement from any reliable
source.
A FEW REASONS WHY
Dr. Bagwell’s Golden Seal Liniment is the Best
AND SHOULD BE IN EYERV HOUSE.
Ist. You get a large bottle —more liniment —and best on the market, for
only 25 cents per bottle.
2nd. It is always reliable, and warranted to give satisfaction, or your
money is refunded.
Jl'rtl. It, is always ready for use, as it never congeals. It can be used at a
moment’s notice, thereby saving time and trouble, as you never have to warm it
4tli. Unsurpassed for colds, croup, etc., and will give relief at once.
sth. Relieves all pains instantly.
<sth. It cures burns in less time than any other liniment, and without any
scar whatever.
7th. In cases of bruises, sprains, cuts, etc., it is invaluable, and should be
applied at once.
Bth. For toothache, headache, neuralgia, swellings, contracted muscle*,
bites and poisonous stings, lame back, sore throat, cramp, earache, leg ache,
pain in back, side, shoulders, painful swelling, chilblains, frost-bite, sore
nipple, caked breast, etc., it has no equal.
Ask your druggist for “Golden Seal” and have no other.
