NEW NEIGHBOR. “Oirhr cried Margery Kearney, ‘Tve Men him!—Olive SUirfirig—our Dent neighbor!" In quite a whirl of excitement Mar gery had dualicd into the cozy room where her three sisters were sitting. She was shining with min, from the jjood her silver gray gossamer to the T*ry tip. of her rabbets. The fluffy brown curl* across her forehtad were sprinkled with bright drops, and her Cheeks were glowing from her rapid walk. “You diJP interrogatively chorused three eager voices, t “1 really did!” ' "Is he handsome?” asked Janet, who appreciated ail beauty ns intensely os only a pL-dn looking person can. “Intellectual looking?" inquired Clo- *iWi\ who dipped daily into Emerson and professed to adore Buskin. “Jolly?" queried little Bertie, who was at the age when jolly people seemed created for her especial amusement. “No—no—no! ’ laughed Margery. “Not handsome, or learned looking, or even jolly. lie is simply the most awk ward looking mortal I ever beJjeUir 1 And she ttoho into a jieal of heartiest laughter at the recollection of her en counter with their new neighbor, j “You see it was this way, girls," jerk ing off her gossamer, and disclosing a -form attired in a dress of chocolate cash- -more—a form that was trim, slim and •willowy as that of sweet 17 is. apt to be. “I was running. home in a great Jiurry—for it's chillier out than you folks ■nuiginfc—-and just as I camo opposite the gate of *The C»:iks,’ I stop;»ed very sud denly.

I said: ‘If you don’t get out of ths way I'll hit youf and ho actually . grinned, There was nothing to do but step out in the Gtreet—it wan so muddy, ] too—and walk around him. But just "tlien—I suppose my dilemma was ap parent from the house—down the path Jbe came running. Oh, he looked so 'ridiculous! He is about as tall as Jack's bean stalk, lean os a lath, and brown ns an Indian," • “Well,” exclaimed Janet, “ho must be charming!” “Ob!” cried Margery, going off into a fresh paroxysm of laughter. “What, with his glasses and his coattails flying straight out as he rushed to my rescue he looked liko some great curious, com ical bird!” "Birds don’t wear glasses,” corrected B<_frie. “Wgg his coat a .wallow tail?” r ‘Thcaopeairoj.inforjuaUdn'wasIgnoretL k “Well, "lie called oil Uiedog, and apolo gized for the monsier, and—tliat’8 all.” “I wish he’d offer me tbo use of lus li brarysighed Clotilde. “They say ‘The Oaks’ is a perfect pal ace as far as furnishing goes,” murmured Janet “I think ril ask him to loan me the lovely white pony,” decided Bertie. Tbo rain bad quite ceawo. in* arternooo sun, weary of ■outing, was coming oat in splendid •tala. In ito radiance every drop on *vcry clover leaf waa a glittering jewel, and the pool, in the street reflected bite of the brilliant sky. On aud on wandered Bertie, her ecar- h-t skirt blowing backward, her yellow hair tangling fliMsily as the breose caught and played with it As site passed “The Oaks" she paused to put her small, in quisitive face against the irou railing and peer Ummgli. What a grand, big house it was! And bew smooth and green was the large lawn, all lovely with beds of bloom! And how sweet the flowers smelt lifter the rain—tlie geraniums aud carnations, and sweetbrier and verbenas! “I should so love to see tho funny man Sister Margery saw," she said to herself. And then, just as if she had liad a in ogi val ring, her wish was gratified. For out on tho main walk, not twelve feet away, from a small side path came Mr. Sterling. a He saw tho little maiden outside the railing—the bright eyed, curious face. He liked children. He sauntered towards the gate. “lieilo, little lassie! what is your name?" “Kearney, sir.” “Oh, you’re one of the Kearney sisters, are you? Which one?” “I’m not the clever one.” she said. He smiled. “NoT “No. Clotilde is the clever one.” “WellT “And I’m not tho good one. Janet is the good one.” “Indeed!” with a nod. “And I'm not the pretty one cither. Margery is tho pretty one." “And your “Oh, I'm tho bad one. At least that is the way Uncle Dick says we ought to bo dis-dis-distinguished!” She was breathless from her struggle with tho l»ig word. “Then," ho said, laughter lighting up bis quiet brown eyes—“then it was Mar gery I saw today?” “Yes, and I think,” indignantly, “she was all wrong. I don’t think you’re one bit awkward." “Ehr. “I think you’re downright nice. And some day—not now, because the girls said I mustn’t, but some day, when we’re better acquainted, I’m going to ask you to let me ride on your littlo white pony.” He bowed gravely. “Certainly.” “It’s so sweet!” growing friendly and confidential. “Do you know that last summer—keep still, Kitty Kearney!” to tlio pussy, which was writhingly at tempting an escape—“last summer Mar gery, who is the grandest artist that over lived, I think, made a sketch of it when it was out at pasture. Just wait hero and I’ll run and get it. Como on. Twig!" Away she scampered, her littlo dog after her. Smiling amusedly, the tall, brown gentleman by tho gate waited her return. In about fifteen minutes sho was back with a flat book under her arm. “It is in there, and he is eating grass!” He took the book rather diffidently, but very curiously, too. It could not matter. Sketches were made to lie looked at. And this was a sketch of his own pet pony. r ‘By George!” He almost dropped the book. “Oh, please, please,” cried Bertie, in an agony of remorse. “I quite forgot your picture was in there. What won’t Mar gery say! Oh, never mind tho pony’s picture nowl” She snatched the book, turned, ran home os fast as her fat legs would carry her, leaving Clive Sterling crimsoning I and laughing as he never had crimsoned . But this rash resolution was rushlessly I an d laughed before, crushed. I “Well, I've seen myself for once as .

Its j tcred back to the house. For several owner had -gone abroad on the death of his mother, three years ago, leaving his handsome house in the care of a couple of servants. But now that the news of his return had spread, curiosity was rife in the fashionable suburb of Rivervicw. And not the least interested were Clive Ster ling’s near neighbors. ■ A pleasagt room this in which the sis ters sat; a homelike room, even if the carpet was threadbare, the cliairs venera- ble, the damask curtains darned—per haps all tho more homelike for these sug gestions of social service and experience. Janet went on with her ti»A of re modeling an old dress. Clotilde went over to the window and looked wistfully through the drizzling rain to the red brick chimneys which rose above the house which held the coveted books. Margery, obeying a sudden impulse, had snatched up her ever ready sketch book from the table acd was scratching vig orously away. An o cstatic giggle from Bertie, who was peeping over her shoul der, called the attention of the others to her work. I “What is it?” asked Janet I Margery looked up with a nod and a smile. , “Wait a moment” On her brisk pencil flew, the dimples in her pretty cheeks depening as her mischievous smile grew. , “ThereI” ’ She held up the open book. The otbert flocked around her. i “Oh, Margery r “He can’t look like that!” j “What a caricature!” ' Indeed, comical and grotesque was the drawing of the loug, lank figure, with the spidery extremities, the flying coat tails. thg tremendous goggles. “Oh, just a trifle accentuated—not ite a caricature,” she said laughingly, i she scrawled under the picture the “Our New Neighbor.” “The rain is clearing off 1” cried Bertie. days he neither saw nor heard anything of his neighbors. Then be chanced to encounter Bertie. “Oh, please, I can’t talk to you,” the child said. “The girls ray I am so un reliable. You know Margery caught me when I was sneaking her sketch book back, and made me tell her where I had taken it to.” - “And then?" “Then,” confessed Bertie, with a con trite gulp, “then she sat down and cried!” “I rayl Nor “She did. There sho is now! Oh, Margery, Margery I” The girl had come unexpectedly around the corner. To avoid a meeting was im possible. She was quite near her sister and the master of “The Oaks.” “■nils is Mr. Sterling, Margery. You know you weren’t reg-regularly intro duced before. I've been telling him how yon cried about” A delicious blush of mortification, re gret, pleading swept across Margery’s wild rose face. Frankly she held cut her hand, lifted her clear eyes. “I am so sorry for having been so rude! Will you forgive me if you can? And come over and play tAnnfn thia afternoon?" “Thank you. Yes,” he said. “Why, Margery,” the others raid to her when he, after a rattling good game, had returned home, “be is just splen did!” “Good looking, too!” “And a gentleman!” “All three!" decided Margery, prompt ly, as site sought the sketch of their new neighbor and deliberately tore it up.

This was in the days of thirty years ago. be fore any part of Australia was half civil ized by the English, and before the big island had been more than half surveyed. There were plenty of bosh rangers haunt ing every highway, and every stage was usually accompanied by a guard. In our case five of us liad put together acd hired a private conveyance. It was one of the usual stages, but making a special trip for Our benefit. Of the five three ■were Englishmen going up to tho valley of the Murray to locate land, the fourth waa an American who had been in the country two years, and I had landed in Melbourne only the week before. My compatriot was named Davis, a widower, ami he hud his only child along—a bright little girl 8 years old. He was going up to sheep ranch in partnership with a friend already settled, and he could not bear to leave his child behind him in the town. The five of ns were well armed, and every hour since leaving Melbourne we bad been ready to defend ourselves. As we lifui met with nothing to alarm us thus far, and as we knew we were close upon a station, no one was prepared for what happened. The stage hail no sooner stopped than two men came up on a side, covered us with revolvers, and a gruff voice announced: “Now, then, tho first move and off goes yer heads! Step out here one by oner I was the first one oat. It was just at sundown, and on a portion of the road between two ridges. The two men on that side were rough, unkempt, des perate looking fellows—fair samples of tho other, two—and the instant I raw them I knew that we wore in for trouble. When we were all out they ordered the driver to turn into a blind road to the right, and we followed after tho wagon. As wo were ordered to follow the veliicle the leader of the gang said: “No foolishness, now! Tho four of us have got our pistols looking right at ye!” After going tliirty roils we were as well hidden from the highway as if we had gone ten miles, and were brought to a halt in a little glade. As there were five to four, you may wonder that we did not umko a break, Tho first man who had moved to pull his revolver would have been shot in the I jack. Da vis could not have been counted on any how, as his anxiety for his child took all tho fight out of him. The driver, if not in league with the rangers, was at least treated as neutral. While ho was arm ed, he took matters so coolly that we saw lie was out of the scraiie. The five of us were placed in a row, and while three men stood behind U3 the fourth disarmed us and went through our pock ets. Wo were a poverty stricken crowd. The $80 they took from me constituted my worldly wealth, while Davis raidtthe others had been too sharp to trust their money to a stage unguarded. The whole amount did not- pan out over $150, and the bush rangers were fnrious. “Why, you bloody bloke!” shouted tho leader, “you alone ought to have at least £200 with you!” “Do you think I’m carrying my money about tho country for 6uch as you?” pro tested tho hot headed victim. f Tm a-wishing you hadn't got a blast ed penny!” added the second. “Tho idea of it! You’ll all be hung for this!” growled tho third. Davis and I had nothing to say. The leader, speaking to the two of us, asked; “You are not English?” “No; Americans.” “I thought so. Where ye bound for?” We gave him our destinations. “Well, we’re a bit sorry to take your money, small as it is, and fo delay your journey; but we’ve got to do both. These three coves is rich, and we ain't going to let ’em off with shillings where we ought to have pounds.” While we were held under guard one of tho men went over to the driver and held a consultation with him, and the result wa3 that he turned his team about and disappeared in the direction of the highway. Wo were then ordered to proceed in a northerly course through the scrub, one man leading and the oth ers bringing up the rear. Not a word had been addressed to little Eva by any of the men, although all bad looked at her with softened expression. She real ized what was going on. but went through it bravely, and when wo started through the scrub her father carried her on his shoulder. We traveled for six or seven miles before halting, and then came upon a camp fire, with a fifth bush ranger sleeping liesido it. He was rudely awakened, and I then raw that he had his right arm in a sling, having been wounded or meeting with an acci dent. The camp was a thicket, with a temporary shelter of brush to sleep un der. The five of us were ordered to sit down under this shelter, and then every man’s feet were tied together at the ankles and a guard took a scat before us. Then the fire was replenished, and the bush rangers gave us such a supper as they could afford, which consisted solely of roast mutton and a flour cake baked in the ashes. When we had eaten this and been offered a drink of water all around, the leader sat down before us and said: “Now, gents, business is business the world over. We have got to make money. We want it to convert these ’ere natives from the error of their ways, and it will take a heap to do it. You first gent, who was so ready with your tongue, how much are you worth?’ “It’s none o’ yer blasted business, you scoundrel, you,” was the hearty reply. “Well, mebbe not. Being as you is so poverty stricken, 111 put you down for only £300. Now, you second gent.” “I could raise £100 if in Melbourne.” “That means £200 for you, then. You’ll lie a half or more. Now, you third gent.” “TO this day's but not until after I You also go down for £300. Now, the fourth seat,” “You've gat my last dollar,” I replied. “I landed in Melbourne only a week ago.” “That’s bad for all of us. but I guess you toil the truth. Now, you fifth genu” “I might possibly raise £3 if up at the ranch.” replied Davis, “but that would be nil I am poor and just making a start.” “Is that your little gal?* “Yea” “Where’s the mother?” “Dead.” “Shoo! That’s too bad. What’s the gal’s uvaei” “Eva.” “Mighty sweet. Say, gal, come and kiss me.” She went over to him and kissed his bronzed and bearded cheek without the slightest hesitation, and he held her for a moment and looked her over and said: “Sweet as Ininey! I wouldn't hurt you for all the gold in the big world!” She was allowed to return to her fa ther. and the leader then said: “We shall hold you three peppery gents until you raise £S0O for us, and as those Americans might give the alarm we shall be obliged to hold them as welL Sorry to do it, but business is business, and If wo don’t look out for ourselves no one will.” Each one of the Englishmen swore by all that was good and great that he’d never pay a cent, but the bush rangers only laughed at their words. At a late hour wc were ordered to go to sleep, and the last thing I saw before my eyes closed was the guard sitting on a’rock at my feet The night passed quietly, and as soon os we liad breakfasted in the morn ing the leader took pen, ink and paper from a box and said to the Englishmen: “Now, then, here's the chance to write to your friends to raise the rocks, and I ll see that tho letters resell them.” Each one of tho three refused point blank to make any attempt to raise money, although it was plain they had a desperate lot to deal with and that they would suffer for their obstinacy. “Well, some other day will do just as well,” laughed tlio leader, “but I want it understood that each day of delay adds £23 to tho ransom.” We were then untied, given a few minutes to get over our stiffness of limb, and then wcall set off over a rugged, scrubby country toward a range of hills. We traveled steadily until noon and then came to a very secure stronghold among the hills. By placing us in u natural inclosure of about an eighth of an acre wo were surrounded by rooky walls on three sides, and on the fourth the bu.'h rangers built their fire and made their camp. As wo were penned in here the chief of tho bush rangers announced to tho Englishmen that lie would give them two days in which to make up their minds to send for the money. If they held out at the end of that time lie would take his own measures to extort tho money. One of tlio Englishmen was a large landowner in Australia, another was a civil officer at Melbourne, the third was fresh from England and was intending to shut a manufactory of some sort at Melbourne or Sydney. Davis and I both labored with them to make them realize the situation, but they were pigheaded and obstinate, de claring that it was all a bluff, and tiiat tho rangers would not dare proceed to extremes. Wo believed differently. Tliey were escaped convicts, each one outlawed, and a more villainous gang one never looked at. On tlio morning of the third day, with out having annoyed us in the least dur ing the interval, the chief called for their decision. Each Englishman curtly re plied tlutt lie would never get another dollar of their money. The civil officer wa6 the leader and the most independent. He was seized, tied hand and foot, and after his boots and stockings liad been re- moved Tie was placed with liis feet to a fire. Hostood the torture until w“ could smell the odor of his burning soles and then gave in. Tho other two followed his example without waiting for the tor ture. Each one wrote a note to a friend in Melbourne worded by dictation. While the chief was a roujjh looking fellow^ ho proveJ to Lave a very fair education. When the letters were ready he took them and started, presumably to find a messenger to act as a go-between. There were four left to guard us, and after the chief had gone one of them bruised some herbs and kindly tied up tho English man’s feet. Our three fellow prisoners rather shunned Davis and myself during the afternoon, seeming to be put out be cause we were not called upon to ransom ourselves. But we afterward recalled that they made much of the child, and had her with them a good share of the time. Each outlaw also had a good word for her whenever she came near, and she was permitted to rqn about without re straint. At 4 o’clock in the afternoon this was the situation: Three of the guards were asleep beyond the fire. The fourth sat on the ground, with his back to a rock, reading a novel, while he bad a rifle acroerhia knees. Davis and I lay close together, talking matters over, and the Englishmen were ten steps away. little Eva was running about, shouting and playing. All at once we heard the pop of a revolver, followed by a death cry, and as we sprang up two of the English men, each with a pistol in hand, dashed past us. In sixty seconds more every one of the bush rangers was dead. They had coaxed Eva to bring them the pistols, wl-.ich were lying on the far side of the camp, and she had (Kissed behind the guard and made two trips. As soon us they had the weapons one of them shot down the half asleep guard, and then the others were slain before sleep was fairly out of their eyelids. • The smoke was still hanging over the camp when we began the construction of a litter, and within half an hour wa were headed for the highway and carry ing the victim of torture along with us. Wc kept going all night, cs wo-had to go 6low, anil about daylight came cut at the stage station. A squad of mounted police set-off for the camp, auu ou their way to it came across and killed tho leader of the bush rangers, thus wiping out the last of a bad gang.—-New York Sun.
