•The Goodwill oxen were out again. To
, n6 unacquaiuted with the fractious
beasts the statement may lack Interest,
but there was not a soui in South Hana
ford who would not have been keenly
a.ive to the possibilities consequent on
taeir getting out. For when the Good
win cattle broke bounds nothing was
safe. No precincts were too sacred for
them to enter, nor was there anything
green that was not esteemed of their
palates. The Rev. Sigourney Hardwicke
had seen a whole cabbage patch disap
pear down their huge throats while he
lev on his lounge too ill to chase them
or to call assistance; they had wandered
In at the open door of Mrs. Henry Sedg
wick's parlor on the- afternoon that the
sewing society was to meet there, and
before they could be removed the amount
of damage that they had inflicted could
not have been rivaled by their old ances
tor, the bull who invaded a china shop;
and that was not a tenth of the unueual
exploits to their credit—or discredit.
No fence out of barbed wire could re
sist their seductive horns, and as George
Goodwin did not believe in wire fences,
the two oxen used their spare time
finding out new ways to escape from the
five-acre lot in which they were con
fined and where the pasturage was sweet
and the water abundant. A love for mis
chief is not generally set down among
an ox's characteristics, but the Goodwin
oxen were as mischievous as monkeys.
SHE AT HEM AN'D SCIiEA.MF.D AGAIN.
Indeed, Sam Moneypenny had averred
:hat he had heard them chuckling with
delight when they ate up the last 6talk
of his prize evergreen corn.
Goodwin had been begged and ordered
to tie the beasts up when his man was
through using them, but Goodwin, al
though he owned the farm on which the
cattle were pastured, himself lived over
in Canton, and as out of sight is out of
mind with most people, he did nothing
except ask his man to strengthen the
fences.
But as the strength of the oxen kept
pace with the fences, anew rail in the
morning simply meant a broken rail at
night, and the two brothers in crime
would eat up a bed of nasturtiums or
overthrow rockery or tunfole a wood
pile down with all the zest of wanton
schoolboys.
Trueman Newberry was an old bache
lor, very good looking, fairly equipped
in worldly goods and the most fished
for man in the South Hanaford pond.
The Xewberrvs had come from Windsor
and were descended from Gov. Bradford
and from the earliest times there had
been one handsome old bachelor who did
not surrender his freedom until well along
in years, and it looked as if Trueman
would carry out the tradition as far as
not marrying young went, if, indeed, he
was ever ensnared.
Trueman h3d two hobbies a love for old
furniture and a passion for flowers. The
farmers about smiled inwardly as th f y
t aw him wasting valuable time, that
might have been employed at farming, in
making a b and of “posies,” and in after
ward watering them like A poll os, but if
they had laughed openly he would not
have cared As long as he pleased True
man Newlerry he did not care whether
any one else was pleased Not ihat he
was seVfis l \ but he was independent.
When Miss Giayson came to Pouth Han
aford to ho and In check the rebellious youth
who attended the district school. True
man was visibly impressed with her
charms, wh'ch, in the language of the
boys of to-day, were of the “peachy” va
riety. He saw her first at church, where
she supplied a rich contralto to a choir
that needed richness of some kind, but he
did not see her to speak to her until the
donation party that was inflicted upon
Mr. Hardwicke in the latter part of Au
gust, and then he found that she was in
terested in old furniture, like himself . In
fact, she had a low-boy that had been
in her mo her’3 family since it came over
with Balathi 1 Gaylord on the good ship
Mary and E len in 1639.
His heart had warmed to h*r after that
avowal and he had felt that if he ever
marri and it would be to one like this, who
could bring with her a wagon load of an
tique furniture. He was going oak her
if she ado:ed flowe sand the care of
them, but Mrs. Curias brought her son
William over to meet her and he did not
have another opportunity to talk to her
that evening. But she was di tinctly pleas
ant and lively and he found himself think
ing cf her many times after that night,
and be'ore many days had passed, h- dis
covered that although the choir had five
basses to two piping tenors, they stood
i:i great n*ed of his re-onant bass, and he
immediately joined that body of singers,
and at Fr day evening rehearsal, as luck
w uld have it, was assigned the seal next
to that occupied by Miss Grayson. Only
®de '• ad gone home to Newington to spend
Sunday. He had half a mind to resign
when he heard thia, but after all, there
were o. hcr Sabbaths cjming, so he pitched
into the tunes With a fervor that excited
tho, j.aloupy of the other bass e. True
man had a fine voice; all the Newberry®
had Veen lingers from the earlbst t m a.
Trueman sang at morning service and
v nlng pray* r meeting w ith his eye s ? on
'he notes and his mind on Miss Grayson.
H was hard hit. There was no doubt of
t* at. At 26 he was likely to go the way

ry bachelor until twice 26 years had been
P 1 and in this vale.

* f years. But hi* thought® were not of
furni’ure, but of a form and a face that
would have made a kitchen chair look lik*
a Mce of Chippendale.
He smoked hi® pipe out, and then he re
but not to sleep. His thoughts
were with Miss Grayson, who even now
was returning from Newington. That
much he knew, because he had heard Mrs.
Dibble tell Mrs-. Harding, with whom the
e -‘hool teacher boarded, that she thought
l* "‘as shocking for her to borne back on
Sunday, instead of making an early start
0,1 Monday morning.
It lacked some minutes of 10 o’clock
when Trueman heard a commotion outside
his window. He sprang from his bed
fi nd looked out. The moon wa# at the
full, and a diaphanous cloud was coquet
,,n * with it. but his eye did not take In
[ ho beauty of the scene. All that he
•aw was the two mischief makers, the
Godwin oxen* walking around in bis bed
of dahliaa. They had already rolled on
his asters and had torn down the beauti
ful wild cucumber vines thet covered the
southern wall of his house, and had les
sened by half the pile of “pounder” ap
ples that he had purposed shipping to hi 9
married sister in New York, for old times'
aake.
Clad in his white cotton night shirt and
with the red carpet slippers on his feet
that always stood at his bedside, ready for
Instant use, this bachelor leaped down the
front stairs and picked up as a weapon
the first thing that came to hand, which
happened to be a feather duster that
had belonged to his grandmother, and
which had been moulting any time these
fifty years.
He opened the front door brandishing
this terrible budgeon, and the oxen
glanced mildly at him, and then ambled
through his sweet pea hedge, carrying oft
garlands of flowers on their broad horns.
Then, as he pursued, they punched holes
in his well-kept lawn, marking their easy
progress to the street, where they stopped
and looked over their shoulders, and seem
ed to smile at him.
This so enraged him that he determined
to chase them down the road as far os
he could. He forgot his scanty clothing,
forgot everything but the fact that these
vexatious beasts had ruined his garden,
and had then added insult to injury by
grinning at him. He might have driven
lehm into the Goodwin lot, that lay across
the way, but the fence was newly torn,
and it would have been foolish to try pen
ning them up for the night. They were
out for a lark, and he would help them to
one, only it should not be at his further
expense.
So he hurled the duster at them, and hit
the nigh one amidships. The great animal
made a playful pass with his hind legs,
and knocked a potted fuchsia off of a
stump with the ease of a premiere dan
seuse.
Trueman seized the broken pieces of the
pot and hurled them at the wicked pair
and both were hit on the head. And then
the race began. With tossing horns they
tore southward down the road. He te
covered his treasured feather duster and
sprinted after them, his drapery stream
ing in the wind, his red slippers slapping
his heels rhythmically with each
stride and the feather duster gyrating
in the air like a drum major's
baton. Once he fell and marred the
snowy whiteness of his toga, but a jump
and a shake and a plunge forward with
lowered head and he had regained the
space he had lost by falling. And once
more the feathered dart hurtled through
the air in a manner suggestive of bull
fights, although it fell short of its mark.
He had not thought that oxen could be
so fleet, but their fleetness would but
serte to put a lengthy distance between
them and his grounds. He would chase
them to Canton if need be, but they
should not again disturb his nocturnal
musings or cry havoc and let slip the
dogs of war in his garden.
As they crossed Tibball’s bridge he
dropped a slipper. He picked it up to
hurl at the oxen, but true to its name it
HE MADE A PLAYFUL PASS.

astream. And that slipper had first be
longed to his grandfather!
The oxen were not In the least blown,
but he was, In every sense of he word.
And hU hair looked like a field of rye
through which a cyclone had passed.
The night winds toyed with his linen gar
ment, and the stones In the road hurt his
stipperless foot. It had been fifteen years
since he luid gone barefoot. But to stop

oway, and he would not leave them until

walls and six-barred gate of the sanctu
ary of the dead. They could restore
some of the moss-covered Inscriptions on
the tombs with their horns, or scratch
new ones, for all he cared, but they would
not trouble him again that night. On
sped the strange trio, the red oxen and
the man in white; past the Bulkelcys,
past the Days, past the Tralntors, past
the Goodspeed*. past the 81113. Then a
sharp turn to the left, and they were In
tho lane that led to the graveyard. By
some lucky chance the cemetery gate was
open, and, with a final hurling of the in
ocuous feather duster end a volley of
small stones almost as harmless, he drove
the bovine marplots Into the graveyard,
closed the gate securely and retraced Ills
steps to the highway.
He now for the first time realized that
he was a full half-mile from home. and.
while it was night and he was clad In
the garments of the night season, still
South Hanaford society would not have
received him In such habiliments.
But fortune favored him. Inasmuch os
It was 10 o’clock and all Hanaford was
ar'eep All Hanaford? No, there was
ore who was not yet asleep. One who
was driving toward him In a covered bug
gy, Who could there be profaning the
little end of the Subbath In this fashion?
It looked like the Harding team. Well,
he wasn't afraid of old Nelson Harding.
And besides there was no place to hide.
He was on a perfectly open, treeless, level
stretch of road.
As he walked boldly along, using the
feather duster as a cane, something about
the harness broke and the horse, walking
half way out of the Shafts, stopped as a
quarter century's hardening to mishaps
had taught him to do.
V Wli a little scream the occupant of
the buggy essayed to Jump from the high
bex, and tripping, fell to the ground.

sat up, glanced at him, and screamed
again.
"Are you hurt?” asked he, and she,
efter her second scream, acted as if it
were quite the ordinary thing for Hans
ford men to take nocturnal rambles in
cotton robes. She rose to her feet and
answered him calmly, “no, I am not a
bit hurt, but I don’t in the least know
what to do.”
Trueman stepped over to the wagon end
saw that the whiffle-tree had broken and
had released one of the traces.
“Is there a rope In the wagon?” said
he.
"Yes, the tie line,” she answered.
“That will do. I’ll fix you up so you
can get the wagon home, and if you don't
care to ride in it I’ll drive it and you can
walk. It’s such a little distance.”
O, how pretty she did look! So fresh!
That little wave of hair that had loosed
itself from its fellow locks tvas so rav
ishing! What an inspiriting thought that
he could be of real service to such a
beautiful girl. If he could be sure that
she was fond of flowers.
He took the rope and with the help
of his now truly valuable feather dus
ter, he fashioned anew end to the whif
fle-tree end slipped the trace’s end over
the handle. While he worked at It and
she watched him with an admiring in
terest, for he was singularly deft with his
hands, he suddenly said:
"Miss Grayson. I meant to ask you the
other night if you were fond of flowers.”
”1 adore them,” she replied with fer
vor.
"Have you ever seen my garden?”
“Not near to. I noticed it as I was
driving by on Friday. It Is beautiful.
And Mrs. Harding says you laid it out
yourself.”
“I always do. I'd like you to come
and see It—not now—with Mrs. Harding.’
Then he remembered that the oxen had
done for hie garden, and he stammered,
”0, I forgot. It’s ruined. The oxen ate
it up.”
“The oxen ate It up?” said she after
him. It now struck her for the first
time that perhaps he was crazy. He cer
tainly had on a very crazy costume. If
he had not been the Adonis that he cer
tainly was, this cotton robe and the lone
ly looking carpet slipper of Venetian red
would not have been becoming to him.
But even his touseled hair became him
and he would have looked .handsome In
anything. But why was he out so late
or. so cool a night with inadaquate cloth
ing?
"There, that'll last until you get home,"
said he. He took the reins and climbed
into the wagon. He stubbed his bare toe
on the step and the pain was excruliat
ing for a moment but his face did not
show It.
’"I’ll drive slowly and you can walk.
I don't suppose you care to ride,” said
he.
“No—l’d rather walk.” said she.
How kind he was, but how peculair.
She did hope that no one would be look
ing out. It would seem so queer.
He gazed at her fondly from the seat
as the old horse began to walk 'slowly
aiong. He drew the lap robe over his
knees. It was getting cool.
“Miss Grayson, have you—have you
ever thought seriously about marriage?”
“Not since I was a child, ’’ said she,
laughing, she knew not why.
"Then you haven’t ceased to think of It,”
he said, and realized that it wasn’t ex
actly what he had meant to express.
“I mean—why. Miss Grayson, we have
so much in common—you love old furni
ture and so do I. and you love flowers,
and I do, too, and I—l adore you, and
you—"
"Really, Mr. Newberry, I don't know
how to take you.”
“Take me as I am—that is—Miss Gray
son—what is your first name?”
“Ruth," said Miss Grayson, almost be
fore she knew it.
He had clasped the reins in his hands,
and he now raised reins end hands to his
heart and said:
"Ruth, I am not a man to shilly-shally.
I knew I’d mairry when the right woman
came along, and here—here you are.
Don't say no. I have a comfortable house
and I can restore my garden in spite of
the oxen that are cursed or blessed, ac
cording as you answer me. Come, v.e are
almost at your house. I will leave the
horse and wagon here and ha'loo for Mr.
Harding if you will but say the one lit
tle word that I want. Isn't ruling me bet
ter than ruling a lot of unruly children?
I know what that school Is. I went there
myself, and no teacher's lot is an easy
one.”
He stopped the horse and Miss Grayson
stopped mechanically. He wound the
reins around the yhlpstock and clam
bered out of the wsgon on the side oppo
site the school teacher. This time his ex
posed toe escaped injury.
"Why are you here in your—ln white?"
"I chased Goodwin’s oxen from my
bed—from my garden bed—to the grave
yard. I will go tome and get aomethlng
else on—anything to please you, Miss—er—
Ruth, If you will only make me happy by
one little word. Will you share my furni
ture and my flowers?"
"Call Mr. Harding and then go away,
and come to see me after school to-mor
row, and I w!l*tell you.”
Trueman made a horn of his hands
and called Harding In his resounding bass.
At the third call there was an answer
from the house.
"Now, do go,” said Miss Grayson.
Trueman put his hand up to lift his cap
and his fingers rnet tn a lock of dishevel
ed hair. He waved his hand as graceful
as he could and turned and hurried home,
disappearing lust as Mr. Harding came
out to see what was the matter. True
man took longer to get home than he had
taken to come with the oxen as peace
makers, but he was strangely happy, he
knew not why.
But the next day he knew, and now,

ASSASSINATION OF ambassaixjhs.
Historical Instances When Envoys
Have Been Assassinated.
The excitement of the past month that
has agitated this country and Europe con
cerning the foreign ministers and attaches
at Pekin recalls the fact that from the
most ancient times the person of an am
bassador or minister has been held invio
lable—the privilege being extended to all
the personnel of his legation; so that when
friendly relations are severed between his
government and the one to which he is
accredited, he is given passports to in
sure his safety until he shall have passed
from the limits of the country.
Even to insult an ambassador has al
ways been regarded as a most serious in
ternational offense. Alexander the Great
destroying the city of Troy on that ac
count.
So strong, indeed. Is the protection ac
corded to an envoy at all times, that there
are but few Instances of the ac'tual com
plicity of a government being traced to
outrages upon his security.
Chief among such, however, was the
murder of Dr. Donislaus. the British min
ister to Holland, in 1649; that of the
French envoys to Austria in 1799; and in
this century of the British envoys at Ka
bul in 1841 and 1878. respectively.
The assassination of Dr. Donislaus was
due principally to his connection with the
trial of King Charles, as one of the par
liamentary counsel. A number of English
royalists had sought refuge at the Hugue,
and on the day afier the doctor's arrival
succeeded in dealing him a fatal blow*. In
this cas£ the thinly veiled sympathy of
the reigning stadthoder protected the mur
derers from arrest and punishment, though
tho c*rime was regarded by other princes
as even greater than the execution of
King Charles.
The assassination of the French envoys
at Bastadt in 1799, was of a particularly
treacherous character. War had been de
clared between France and Austria, but
the three French plenipotentiaries re
mained at their posts relying upon the
protei tion of their office. On the night of
April 28th. they wero suddenly ordered
to leave Bastadt, and had gone but a
short distance when they were ambushed
by a regiment of Austrian hussars. MM.
Bonnier and Robergrot were Instantly
killed, but the third, Jean Debry, though
wounded, succeeded in making his escape
back to the city.
Perhaps the nearest parallel to the pres
ent tragedy at Pekin, was that of the
massacre of Sir William Maenaghten and
his companions at Kabul in 1841. The
British envoy and two officers of his
household having been lured, unarmed, to
the palace, were there ruthlessly butcher
ed by the Ameer’s son. The story of the
subsequent ret?eat of the 4,500 British
troops, of whom 600 were Europeans, and
12.000 camp followers is one of the most
terrible in history. Among the snow-cov
ered passes, they were encompassed on all
sides and attacked at every step by fa
natical hordes of Afgans. Of that army,
only one wretched Individual. Dr. Bry
done, crawled into Jalalabad to tell of the
horror of that march.
Again on September 3d. 187 ft, Kabul was
the scene of the assassination of another
British envoy. Sir Lewis Cavognari after
holding out for several days In the resi
dency against the Ameer’s revolted troops
was compelled, by the firing of the build
ings, to sally forth and perish with his
companions. It was to avenge this out
rage that Lord Roberts made his famous
march to Kabul and Kandahar.
The last serious attack upon the life
of an envoy was that of a Japanese fa
natic upon Li Hung Chang at the close
of the Japan-Chinese war.
The manner in which the Japanese gov
ernment swiftly visited punishment upon
the perpetrator, end the ample satisfac
tion offered to the Chinese minister, in a
large measure emphasized the claim of
the Japanese to be considered one of the
civilized Powers. Michael Gifford White.
