The Home Maters. By CHARLES BATTELL LOOMIS. Copyright, 1300, by C. B. Loomis. •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 t‘ t had seldom been trod by a Newber ry bachelor until twice 26 years had been P 1 and in this vale. Aft< r prayer meeting he walked home a T'Se and sank into a mahogany chair tint had been a Newberry possession for * 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. slipped from his fingers and went far 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 'r'Afb W'“* T,l r "-iti -’ft* JO'a Newberry. The churchyard.was not far oway, and he would not leave them until iiicj v, u sate oeuuiu luc llign stuiie 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. But R was not Nelson Harding, but— merciful heavens! Miss Grayson.

"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, If you were to visit Mr. Newberry's house, he and Mrs. Newberry would be very likely to show you among tbelr treasures, an old fenther duster laid am an ornament above another treasure, a paint ing by Horatio Walker of a pair of oxen, which bears Lie odd title, "The Home Makers.” Pimples on the face are not only an noying, but they Indicate bad blood.

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.
