When he awoke and thought, he wept. Am only murmured, "Sacrfce." EE EX-EMSGKEBSOB. D Dr,WORH was au unusual man. Wthout attemptng to analyze hm should say that he was unusual because of certan mxed qualtes that mght have made hm famous outsde of Hountree. t s true he was conspcuous n Rountree, but not of the knd that spells fame. One thng, hs ambton ddn't turn n the rght drecton, and he was too much obscured by certan nherted trats that you couldn't hold hm responsble for. He was unassumng, rtca, and you couldn't help Jbng hm for that. Budd Brunard sad that Dlworth was \a lazy, good for nothng horse :thlef * 'before he was reformed: But Budd had a grudge aganst hm whch ddn't have a chance to cool n that Arzona temperature. Dlworth. reformed when he struck the tral of a mserable lttle preacher sent down there to save hmself from an early consumptve's grave. he Kd took a fancy to hm and helped hm to keep order when he tred to preach, and when he ded he made all tountree turn out to hs funeral. t was..the greatest funeral you ever saw n that regon. t just made one thnk that we were all n love wth the dead chap. But we weren't. We were sort of hypnotzed by Dlworth. Somehow the mantle of Eljah had fallen on the Kd'» shoulders. Leastwse he assumed that t had, add he made us beleve t. We couldn't deny t, and we couldn't affrm t, and what you can't affrm or deny you'd better leave alone. So we accepted t whle under the spell of the moment. Budd Branard sad "Amen!" and the Kd took t rght and pretended not to see the mockery n Budd's tone and added: "Amen and amen!" Budd looked knd of confused and asked: "Does the Kd take t earnest? An't he got brans enough to see the p'nt of the joke?" Dlworth overheard, but he chose to assume not, and he dspersed the funeral processon -wth a wave of hs hand and n hghfalutng sort of nuntfuneement that he'd hold meetng next Sabbath mornng at 11 n the back part of the Yellow Coyote saloon. Coyote Mke gave the Kd the use of hs back room for servce, knowng that he would proft by the crowd that would assemble n the front room. All»}tountree was there, every one burnng wth thrst and curosty. Dlworth held the servce alone; we ddn't nterrupt hm. t was none of our busness f he wanted to play preacher. Now, an ordnary man would have been scared to death by the poppng of guns and corks n the Yellow Coyote saloon that mornng, but the Kd only prayed and sang the louder behnd hs closed doors. When the meetng was over he came out lookng sorrowful and downcast. "Why ddn't some of you boys come n?" he asked, pleadng-lke. " know you would have enjoyed t. Next Sabbath mornng we'll have a large audence." Some of us tred to sncker, but somehow we couldn't. We just felt that- hypnotzng spell come over us gnn. Budd Branard started the processon from the saloon. Dlworth stood and eyt3d us sadly. He ddn't seze upon anv one untl t came Buck urey's turn to scoot out or tue toor. hen he just stretched forth a hand and sad: "Buck, the Lord wants you." Ordnarly Buck could handle a sx shooter quck enough and could laugh at death n almost any form; but ho jtbt trembled all over now and wlted. We saw hm draw back nto the shadow of the saloon wth the Kd and lsten. Coyote Mke's back room had an audence of two the followng Sabbath and the poppng of corka and guns n front wan notbo frsky ns usual. here wah an atmosphere of quetness about the place whch oppressed us. Budd Branard fnally sad: "'m gong to leave thn pjace before that horse thef provokes me nto Hhootng hm. 'll do t f he" Budd couldn't flnwh, for the Kd WUH n our mdst and at the door ahead of any one. le Juft looked over Budd'H Htouldor and mld: "We've decded to ralho Cumn t buld a meetng house n Rountree. We need t bad, boys, for the back room o tho Yellow Coyote 1B unmll, and 1 won't hold our audence much longer." lls naturally provoked Coyote Mllw to anger, for ho would lone trade. Bu before ho could speak up lla oplnlo: tho Kd had hm by the hand. "You'll help, for you have prolltet more than anybody lu Rountree ovo. the snfuuess of man. We'll let you off wth $500 now, but we'll come back or more later. Next!" *' Coyote Mke never protested, for the Kd had hm down for the full amount, wth hs sgnature at the foot, before he could recover from hs astonshment. Budd Branard once more started for the door, sayng under hs breath: "Hang hm! He'll befuddle me next wth hs tomfoolery!" he Kd repled sorrowfully enough, holdng open the door for Budd: "We'll take your subscrpton for the new meetng 1 house another tme. he Lord can bde hs tme." "So can!" snapped Budd. "And when my tme comes we'll settle all past scores. Understand?" After that the Kd had opposton n buldng hs new meetng house. Rounree ddn't need such an nsttuton, for BUDD BRANARD SAD "AMEN!" t hadn't thrown off ts swaddlng clothes, and t was n need of more saloons than churches. But the Kd showed hs pecular nherted trats by not beng downhearted over the falure of hs scheme to save the souls of the Rountree ctzens n a real, genune church. here were, of course, some who followed hm and beleved n hm, but not many. When thngs ddn't eoue fast.enough hs way Dlworth sad somethng about "bucklng on the armor of the Lord and fghtng for the rght," We took ths sort of talkng fguratvely untl one day le waylad Mexcan Pete and toted hm off to hs house to convert hm. Pete was a snner f there ever was one horse thef, drunkard and gambler. f the Kd could convert hm, along wth Buck Grey, he would prove a better man than any of hs predecessors n the mnstry. Pete ddn't show up agan for a week. Some sad he was dead drunk, and others hnted that the Kd had made way wth hm. But he was all rght, except that he looked scared and pale when he appeared at the Yellow Coyote bar agan. "Have ou>. Pete?" sad Buld. '"Make t anythng." Mexcan 'cte shook hs head and whspered, " do you mnd f we call t sarsaarlla V *" tlu>u«jll Budd would fall to the floor, but ho just gasped and turned to Coyote Mke "You hear?" hen when Coyote Mke gurgled out an nartculate reply Budd added wrathfully: "hs s gong too far! What's the matter wth us, anyway, to let that lttle reformed horse thef come here and henpeck us?.why don't you close up hs mouth-, Mke? t you don't he'll close up your saloon. Well, you're the fnest lot of blasted, dotc dummes that ever see! 'll be hwnged f don't shake off the dust of Rountree for goad! t's too preachy here for me. 'm stflng, asphyxatng. Sarsaparlla for Mexcan Pete! Huh! ake hm home and gve hm the nursng bottle! 'll go campng on the tral of that Kd He's a horse thef, a self confessed one and ought to de." Usually Budd lved up to hs word and we expected developments. But n tountree you can never tell where, lghtnng wll strke. t was an ever gamble on Budd and the Kd. Consderng everythng, was a lttle confused when both turned up us no renely unconcerned an ever. Budd auld nothng about the Kd, and the Kd always purposely uvoded speakng of lls old sde partner of the days before the measly lttle preacher chap brought trouble to Rountree. hen tho best ctzenw began to lone horses, utolen from rght under ther noses. A horse thef hadn't been hung n Rountree for sx months. Kvery one felt hmoelf u nelf consttuted commt tee to run tho thef to ground, but nome how ho wau too wary for UH, and w<: Just bucked our heads ugalnut a atom wall n van.

"We'll have the noose around hm ths tme," some one says, knowng Budd for a bad man when outraged. But the exctement ddn't "come off. About half the" horses of Rountree were stolen, before the ctzens organzed. hen they held a' meetng to consder thngs. t was the Kd who frst let lght n on the subject. After ol the others had had ther say he put up a clncher n ths wse: "Seems to me we need to stmulate our cvc prde a lttle by offerng a money reward for the horse thef, dead or alve, but mostly alve. A lttle reward wll do wonders sometmes. tenembel- once when was nearly corralled by But that was n the days before was converted, and t makes me sad to thnk of t. won't recall t." he Kd had a sorrowful way of lookng oxt of hs mournful eyes whch affected us so that we all hastened to Kgree wth fcn. "'ll put up u uuudred on that regard," sad Budr* Branard. 7 "'M HM-HM lothh HEF." "And 'll cover t wth the Mane," added Coyote Mke. "Juwt double the amounts, gentlemen, and 'll cover them both," the Kd mld, beng game to the core. n half an hour a purno of $2,0(>0 WUH handed over to Coyote Mke lo hold for the HucoeHHful man. he Kd eyed the money wth wlhtful eyeb. "Seeng that l.utnrted the fund Krowng," le Bald nlowly, " mght nave the prvlege of modfyng the ton or the reward." here were nomo grunta of dnpprovul, but the Kd contnued: " don't thnk you'll object to gvng tho captor of the home thef a chtuce Broad Street, Red Bank, N. J. to say what shall be done wth hm or the opportunty to pull the rope frst f he's hung." "Xo objecton," sad Bud'd, wth an oath. "A good dea! want that reward and the frst pull on the rope." "Or the frst shot f you decde to shoot hm?" added the Kd. "Yes, the frst shot or the. frst pull. But t wll be a pull." "But f you decde to let hm go scot free we can't nterfere; that's a part of the bargan." "Yes, a part of the bargan!" roared Budd at the. joke. "'ll let hm go scot free, but he won't go far." "Well, gentlemen, we understand each other," the Kd announced. "he one who clams the reward has all to say about what shall be done wth the thef. hen 'll have hm here tomorrow noon." A sudden suspcon of the truth dawned on us. he Kd was gong to save the- thef's lfe. t was another one of hs freaks. After exactng a promse from us to let the captor decde the man's fate he was ready to expose the thef. "No, you don't!" shouted Budd Branard. "'ll camp on your tral every mnute of the day and nght, and 'll be n at the end. 'll have half the reward and half the say." rue to hs word, Budd followed the Kd around lke a shadow. hey ate and slept together. he Kd ddn't resent Budd's presence, but sought mghtly to work upon hs sprtual nature. thnk f the watch had been extended to a fortnght Budd would ether have been converted or stampeded for new grounds wthout half the reward. he Kd appeared to make no unusual efforts to hunt down the thef, le talked relgon to Budd most of the tme and prayed for hm the rest. Budd looked pretty pale and haggard the next'mornng; he was wld eyed and desperate. But when t came tme for the Kd to redeem hla promse u look of hope entered Budd's eyes. Hs vgl would HOO end. he Kd was the only collected one of the crowd assembled at Coyote Mke's saloon at fve mnuted past noon. Budd was ferce and anxous, showng tle stran n hs husky voce.

Sherff Bogardus has Dever shown any hestaton n sayng just how much hs offce has netted hm. Durng the frst year of hs term the profts of the offce were about $ ; and durng the year just closed the profts of the offce'were a lttle above $16,000. *» # Sherff Bogardus beleves that the people are enttled to know just what the profts of all the county offces are, n order that proper and sutable leglslaton may be taken concernng them. He beleves that all the county offces should be placed on a salary babs. Last wnter, when the matter was before the legslature, he went lo renton to try and do somethng to brng about ths reform ; buc he was a Democrat and the Republcan legslature wab not payng much attenton to Democrats, nor to the placng of county offces on a salarv bass. «* «A Republcan county clerk was just fnshng a term of offce n Monmouth county and he wnnted to be re-elected. he profts of the offce of the county clerk of Monmouth county are just about double the profts of the sherff's offce. he Republcan occupant of the county clerk's offce wanted the offce for another term. Passng the salary law last wnter would have placed that offce on a salary bass durng the succeedng term of fve years, and that was not to be permtted f t could be helped. As the Republcans were n absolute control of the state t was prevented easly enough. t would have reduced taxes, but t would also have reduced, the enormous profts of the county clerk for hb succeedng term, and so the salary bt J was scarcely heard of after t was ntroduced. * * * Sherff Bcgnrdua sayn there are nlenty of men n prvate postons n Monmouth county who do as much work as the sherff does, and who get 1,000 a year or less for llor servces. He thnks the salares of the county offcals ought to be fxed at a lberal fgure, and that the responsbltes of the sherff and other county offcers should be consdered n fxng the salary. He thnks that $5,000 per year would be a lberal compensaton for each of the county offcers of Monmouth county, and he beleves that a law fxng these Hums as salares should be passed. As for tho News'* declaraton that followng year. hs gave each pros " now we shu.ll see f the sherffs or thepectve chef two years of servce a taxpayers have tho greater nfluence assstant to tlo chef before le occupe wth tlt; legslature," don't thnk the the poston hmaelf, and fully qualllo taxpayers care very much about t one hm for tho poston when hs tme enmo way or the other. hey holler more or * & * less about the amount of ther taxea, hs ordnance confned the strfe o but 09 per cent of them would rather BOO tho electon n tho flro department t ther own party kept n power and thetlo electon of second assstant chef. taxes kept hgh, than to neo the taxes low and ho opposton party put n power. salary'bll through wll be pretty certan to awaken the opposton of the polt- a salary bll need only to look at last fall's returns to be convnced that there are no votes to be made by backng such a measure. # ** t may be that the measure wll go through ths year. Both partes n Mon-- mouth county placed the salary Ww plank n ther platform laatf fbm. opposton to the bll last year >0f Marj^ mouth county was, wholly due to the desre 'that the Republcan occupant or the offce of county clerk' should bold the offce for another term of rve years\ at the same enormous profts he had/ by the governor. he judges are themelves appontve offcers and not elecve, and/the appontment of jury commssoner/by them would be to remove he jury commssoners stll further been recevng.. Now that he has goo, from the\ people than f they were appontedjsy the governor. the offce for another term of fve years, the passage of a salary bll cannot affect hm untl the end of that tme and he may declare n favor of a salary bll. Last year t was stated that nfluence exerted n behalf of Mr. McDermott was just the amount needed to defeat the measure ; but one of Mr. McDermott's close poltcal frends declared a few days ago that both he and Mr. Mc- Dermott were now n favor of the salary law. So wth Mr. McDermott's personal desres gratfed the Republcans of the county may favor the law and t may go through. t s sure to go through some tme because t s a rghteous and just measure ; but when t does go through t won't be because the poltcans have any fear of the taxpayers ; t wll go through because the poltcans n power beleve the passage of the law won't hurt_them any and wll hurt the other party. o-o-o here wll be only one canddate n the feld for chef of the Red Bank fre department at the comng electon : he Presbytery of Monmouth wll March.

Wth the passage of the ordnance, whch practcally opened up tbeoffce ofchef to every member of the department who desred t, the whole sprt of the departmen was rased. Prevous to the passage o the ordnance one man could hold th offce for a long term of years, the same as at Red Bank ; and many men felt tha there was lttle use for them to show effcency, so far as gettng any of tn honors of the department was concerned but wth the passage of the ordnance lmtng the term of chef to one year every man n the department felt tha there was no opportunty for hm and the whole morale of the department vva at once mproved. * *f «At Long Branch, when ho ordnanc was passed, the offce of second assstant chef was created. he ordnance pro vded that each year a second assstan chef should ba elected, who should pas up to thu offce of frst assstant chef th next year, and to'llo offce of chef th n Red Bunk even ths plan could bo mproved on by a provson, n the ord nance requrng that the (second chef bo uolectod' from each of the fr hs was planly «'xempllled n Mon-companemouth county lat full. wo men wera <'ftch company tho chef of the tro de n turn. hs would gv< runnng for county clerk, ether of partment one year out of fve, and thre< whom would have nado a good offcal. of tho lve fre companoh of tho tow Ono of tln'l WHO a man who whle n the would ho represented at nl tmca legslature had done all he could to hnv tho chef or attuulnnt chefs. the Hllary bll becomo a law. ho other 4* canddate wan a man who lal held tlo A regulaton of thn bnd, whch ha offce for sx ycarh, nnd for whom* boneft n strong oppoaton to the Hllary bll bo certan to work equally well her* worked uo well nt Long Brunch, woul WH nruffhtcd.

Recever Expected to Get Permsson From the Court on Moutlay to Pay a Dvdend, but Questons Whch Came Up Caused a Delay More me Granted Depostors to Prove her Clams and to Forward hem to the Mecever. he depostors of the Mercantle bank wll have to wat a whle longer before they get a dvdend on ther deposts n the bank. wo weeks ago notces were sent to every depostor and credtor of the bank, statng that the aceounts of the recever of the bank would be presented to the Unted States court at renton on Monday of ths week, and that an order of the court would be asked for at that tme, authorzng the recever to pay a dvdend to the credtors of the bank. he hearng was held on Monday, and there was a good deal of argument over varous matters pertanng to the bank' t was fnally agreed that the hearng should be adjourned to Monday, February 6th, when further acton wll be taken. A number of lawyers were present to look after the clams and nterests of ther clents. Among these were John S. Applegate, Fred W. Hope, Wllam Pntard and Warren H. Smock of Red Bank ; Acton C. Hartshorne of Freehold ; Charles L. Corbn and Sherrard Qepue, who were the counsel for the recevers ; and. several others who were not so drectly nterested. Among the Monmouth county people present n addton to the lawyers were.edward H. Statesr of Colt's Neck, John Allen, Jr., of Keansburg, and Samuel Walsh of Red Bank. Mchael. Barrett, the recever, John W. Newbery and Rudolph Neumann were also present at the proceedngs. Each sx months snce the bank faled the recever has fled a report of hs work durng the prevous sx months. heae reports are very extensve and go nto great detal n regard to the assets and labltes of the bank. Al the mortgagea. of * the bank have, been collected except one, and all other assess of the bank have been dsposed of. As soon as ths last mortgage, known as the Goods peed mortgage, has been settled, the affars of the bank can be closed up. he Mercantle bank has an nterest n ths mortgage amountng to a lttle over $9,000. Under the rules of the bank each depostor became a shareholder or stockholder as soon as the frst depost was made. One of the rules of the bank provded that there should be a membershp fee of $50 pad by each shareholder. Under ths feature of the by-taws and rules of the bank each depostor who had made a depost of less than ffty dollars could not share n the dstrbuton of the dvdend. Each depostor who had more than $50 on depost had $50 subtracted from the amount when the clams were allowed, ths $50 beng excluded from partcpaton n the dvdend. here was a long dscusson over ths rule of the bank. he recever stated that t seemed to hm to be a great hardshp that the smaller depostors n the bank, who were perhaps most n need of the dvdend, should be excluded.; but that as ths rule was part of the regulatons of the bank, he felt constraned to follow t untl the court should make a specal order on the subject. Wllam Pntard sad he appeared for a lar^e number of small depostors, who, under ths rulng, would be deprved of all dvdends. He protested aganst ths excluson of the smaller depostors from the benefts of the dvdend. Ho declared that these depostor!) had nover had any doa that they would bo called upon to pny $50 as a membershp fee, and he added that f they had no understood t they never would have made any deposth. Judge Lannng, before whom tho hearng was hold, was lkewse nclned to thnk that ths wau a great hardshp on tho smaller depontoro. Sovoral other luwyert thought that all depostors should share cqtfnlly n tho dvdend, and that thero should bo no deductons from any of tho clamh'fnr a membershp fee.

Applcaton WHH.made to Judge,Lang for compensaton for the recevers for the work they had done n settlng the affars of the bank, and for counsel fees for the lawyers whom they had employed to assst them. here was a general dscusson among the lawyers and others nterebted over ths queston, J. W. Newbery and Mr. Barrett were apponted recevers when the bank faled. After servng sx >months, Mr. /Jewbery resgned and Mr. Barrett has snce contnued as sole recever. t was fnally agreed that Mr. Newbery should receve $1,000 aa compensaton n full for hs servces as recever ; that Mr. Barrett' should receve $6,000 at the present tme and should receve $500 more when the affars of the bank were fnally settled ; and that the lawyers engaged by the recever should receve $3,000 at the present tme for servces already performed, and that future payments should be based on the amount of work performed hereafter. hs wll make the cost of settlng the affars of the bank about $10,000, not countng any payments made by Mr. Barrett for w.prk done under hs orders. Mr. Neumann ha,s been employed by Mr. Barrett almost constantly snce the bank faled, and there has been much other work done n connecton wth the settlement of the bank's affars. n speakng of tl^e work done by the recever, Judge Lannng took occason to commend Mr. Barrett for the manner n whch the work had been done; He sad he bad beard no crtcsm from any of the persons nterested- as to the way whom Bedell ntrodtcelf^to Detectve RUG as hs brorb^jvn-law. Mr. Rue asked Bedell what the n an's name was n whch the work'had been done, and and he repled that t wab James Rddle. he thought Mr. Barrett was enttled to Rddle s the man who had been looked the' thanks of the credtors and stockholders of the bank fo he great amount hs beng a supposed wtness of the mur- for n all parts of the state on account of X>fc work-done and for the-, manner njde'fcjjjf.

Most of thtse accounts are small, but there are some whch reach nto the hundreds of dollars. Just before the case was adjourned t was decded that those who had not yet proved ther clams should have untl February 5th to do so. A blank form for makng out the clam has been forwarded by, the recever to every credtor and depostor, and wth these blank forms the makng out of the clams becomes an easy matter. MBS. G. H.

Among the many tems- of nterest n the annual report of State Comptroller Morgan to the legslature, are two that ought to attract general attenton at ths tme and furnsh strong arguments for the enactment of legslaton that has already been suggested. he two tnatterh referred to relate to the recepts and dsbursements n the oltces of the clerks of the supreme court and of chancery. he fgures gven show that the total ncome of the offce of the clerk of the supreme court was $50,886.61, whle the expenses of conductng the offce amounted to $23,922.15, leavng for the state a net revenue of $28, he fgures for the clerk n chancery's offce were : Gross recepts, $43, ; dsbursements, $33, ; net revenue for the state, $10, From these two offces, therefore, the state treasury profted by over $37,000 durng the past fscal year, a showng; whch s partcularly gratfyng, when t s remembered that t s but a few years'ance the pay of the clerks n these offces was changed from a fee to a salary bass, and that under the old. rule the state dd not receve one cent of the profts. tae movement now under way for a further change from the fee to the salary system n all county offces would undoubtedly result n proportonately, as large returns to the varous countes. n fact, f sherffs are placed on a salary, there are several countes that wll receve at least as much revenue from that source as that now turned over to the ' state by the clerk n chancery, and perhaps two or three countes would gan as much as the state dd last year from the offce of the clerk of the supreme court. AB has already been told n the Newt, the Esaex county Republcan organzaton s commtted to the proposed plan, and blls are beng drafted wth the ntenton of havng them ntroduced- bysome member from ths.county. t s reported that at least one other bll dealng wth the subject has been prepared by Senator Jackson of Mddlesex, and t s possble that stll other measures dealng wth the matter wll be presented to the lawmakers for ther consderaton. E these reports be verfed, t would be well for all the frends of the proposed change to couae together and fnd some common ground on whch they can unte n supportng a gven bll, so that they need not waste energy and tme on the floor of the legslature, and thus gve opponents of the salary system an opportunty to score a pont. here wll be a desperate effort made to defeat ths reform, and t wll be necessary for ts frends to present a unted front f they are to be succeeacul. Are Promses to be. (Prom the Freehold rnnsorvt.) Both partes havng promsed to favor legslaton to put county offcers on a salary bass, nstead of allowng them compensaton through fees, t s up to the present legslature to make that promse good. Senator Jackson of Mddlesex, who ntroduced a somewhat smlar bll last year only to see t fal, has a new bll under whch the offces of county clerk, sherff, surrogate and regster of deeds are graded as to salares as follows : Salary of each offcer n countes havng n populaton over 200,000, ( Hudson and Essex) $7,500 per annum. Jn countes between 100,000 and 200,000, (Passac and Camden) $6,000 ; between 80,000 and , ( Unon, Mercer and MVtnmoutl) $5,000 ; between 70,000 and 80,000, (Mddlesex and Bergen) $4,000: between 50,000 and 70,000, ( MorrK Burlnaton and Cumberland) $3.500 ; between 85,000 and (Atlantc and Warren) $2,500 ; between and 85,000, ( Hunterdon, Somerset. Gloucester. Salem and Sussex) $2,000; less than 2,000, (Ocean and Cape May) $1,500. he fees would be turned nto the county treasures. n addton to ther salares, sherffs, under the Jackson bll, would have ther travelng expenses allowed them. All deputes and assstants employed by the surrogates* regsters, sherffs! and county clerks shall be pad such compensaton ns s approved by the board of chosen freeholders n ther respectve countes. he act, f passed, would not affect present offce holders. -^>«-O he. temfsom Wlttl. he reason why t pays busnt'bs men to advertse n HE REGSER s because so many people take the paper. here e hardly a famly n all ths part of Monmouth county where HR REGSER s not the favorte paper.

A sgnpost ponted ts two arms down the convergng roads. On one of them was nscrbed "14 versts to Janova," on the other "17 versts to Sbadowa." Presently the creakng of wheels and the slow, "clop, clop" of a horse's hoofs on the road behnd roused me. A cart pled hgh wth tnware was conng down the road, wth the drver perched on the top of the load. "Good day, brother," L called out as the cart, wth ts sorry horse, came abreast of me. he man returned my salute, and the horse, glad of any excuse totrest hs weary legs, came to a standstll n the mddle of the road. "Whch way are you gong?" asked. "o Janova. here a a market there tomorrow." "But there s also a market n Sbadowa," answered, ''and't s a more mportant place than Janova." "So t s, so t s," the drver repled, wth perfect ndfference. "What have you for sale?" "Plenty of good tnware, as you can Bee, brother. have worked for sx weeks to make ths cartload." "Well, good luck to you and your tnware," sad, pullng and eatng the berres w^.bn reach. "Wll you take t to Janova or Shadowa?" he man pcked up the bt of cord whch served as rens and prepared to goon.

Hartley almost chuckled aloud as he recalled hs moller's words: "No good wll come of your startng n the busness as a common employee. Your father should lake you n as a member of the frm." hat was what she had sad when, fresh from the trp abroad, whch had followed hs hst year at college, om Hardey h;d st.-rtod n hs father's jublbhng house as a clerk n the Btock room. Mr. lardoy bad two objects u vew n makng om start at the bottom of the lad dor. le wanted hm to know the busness, and he wanted hm to know the people wth whom he waa to work for the frst few years and over whom ho would be placed n the years to conc. As for on) hmself, he ddn't gve a np where he started. Whle he ddn't nhert all of hs father's socologcul theores, he dd take a mghty prde n the busness hs father had bult up, and he meant to do hs part n keepng the famly name to the fore n the busness world. But he had also a keen sense of humor, and that was why he chuckled when he pctured the dsmay of hs mother on learnng that he had been requested to act on the commttee selected to buy a weddng present for the bookkeeper. One of the stenographers* had asked om to act on the commttee. She was watchng hm now n some anxety. "Certanly. 'll le very glad to help buy a present for the old chap. Who else s on the commttee?" "Just Mss Pemberton. Havng a number "would only make t more confuslne." "t certanly would. And were wlj fnd Mss reuberton' "n the crculaton department. thonght every one knew Mss Pemberton. She's such a perfect lady. f you don't mnd gong to the crculaton room, wll ntroduce you." She was carryng a lttle box flled wth hlls and cons, the result of the collecton, and om followed her to the other sde of the buldng. "Mss Pemberton, ths s Mr. Hartley, and he's been knd enough to say he wl help you buy the present." A slender gure clad n gray turned from the desk, and a par of gray eyes exactly the shade of the dross were rased to. meet hs. om murmured ^somethng about the kndness beng on the other sde. He had been pc turlng a struggle over the present. "hs perfect lady," le magned, would select somethng n plush al hums wtl cellulod decoratons or a slver pece wth mpossble colored glass lnng. Now he was wonderng whether n all the shops they could tlnd anythng whch was delcate enough to please her taste. Whle ths was gallopng through hs mnd a well modulated voce remarked: "Your father has suggested that we take on hour or two off n the nornn;: before the shops are crowded. f con vetont, 'll meet you :t MeOrath &.Murray's at '.» o'clock tomorrow." "J'm sure Dal's the very best ar nrangencnt." le would have sad the same had she suggested ther makng a trp to Alaska to buy orchds. She. returned to her work, and he sauntered hack to hs own department wshng that she would be cleve enough to wear gray furs wth that gray dress. He felt oddly pleased.de next mornng on enterng the jewelry store to fnd hmself followng n the "wake of a flutterng grny fox boa. hey looked at slverware, hollow and flat. hey gravely dscussed the vrtues of cmlelbra and puddng dshes. hen M!O turned to hm md- < denly.

" don't thnk we could mprove on one of those low couches fnshed wth nal heatls," she sad. om glanced toward t approvngly. "hen we wll have a lttle rocker wth low arms so that she can sew n t f she lkes. t wll'tll be n green and brown." she explaned. "t s such a mstake to thnk that men always want ther rooms n red. beleve thnt men Wto restful rooms too. t's very easy to md K touch or red here and there to gve the warmth a man lkes wthout havng a room glarng lke a theater or saloon.

" thnk we should get one of those low tables to match. She could keep her sewng thngs or mag-, azne on the top shelf and hs smokng outft down below." "Shall we get hm one of those (complete smokng sets n bronze to go wth t?" "No," sad the grl promptly, "we won't have money enough, and thnk the average man hates those sets. He lkes to pck up thngs for hmself, odd peces that wll hold real cgars. obacco sets are only good for show." "She hath wsdom beyond her years," he murmured. She rose hastly and sgnaled to the clerk. n a few mnutes the three peces were skllfully arranged n a green hung corner. Mss Pemberton stepped back and studed the effect. "A couple of smply framed pctures above the couch, a soft toned pllow or two on t, one n her char, and t wll do very well." "Wth the smokng outft on the lower shelf. Don't forget that. And a bt of sewng on the top. 'm qute sure she wll embroder." "No," sad the grl as f talkng to herself. "She wll make lovely lttle thngs out of lace and bts of slkthngs that he wll lke to see her wear, because she wll have tme to make herself pretty for hm." A sudden slence fell between them. he clerk moved to a dscreet, dstance. "And you'd have a lamp," sad om softly, "not turned too hgh, and he'd smoke and rest." he grl nodded her head. "And she mght read aloud to hm sometmes." "Oh, 'm qute sure she would, because they would lke the same books." hen suddenly she flushed and turned away. "t must he very late. We have spent such a lot of tme" "But thnk what lovely thngs we have." All that afternoon between om Hartley's eyes and the accounts of the Btock room moved n slender fgure n gray, and that nght le sad to hs father, "Who s Mss Pemberton?" "She s one of those unfortunate grls brought up by a wdowed mother n comparatve luxury and then thrust out nto the world to earn her way wthout any specal tranng. She came here wth the dea of wrtng, but found the market crowded and wsely studed stenography before she wasted her money huntng: for a poston she could never get. consder her one of my 'fnds.'

MEXCAN DRAWN WORK. he' Watnem Who Wake t Accorttf to Peon ttottvact. he woman who makes drawn work on a Mexcan estate s not an ndependent worker to whom comes the money for all the work her deft hands accomplsh. She s a woman whose father or brother or uncle or mother s n debt to the "great don." She can do the drawn work, so the don's agent supples her wth Jnon or lawn, a frame and the requste mplements and ndcates the desgn that she s to follow, for, though you may not know t, there are fashons n drawn work qute as exclusve and qute as popular as there are n women's hats, for nstance. When her work s done that poor'woman cannot fare forth to market and offer t for sale. t s by the term of her peon contract perhaps already sold to the "great dou," whose tenant she s. Mguel, hs agent, takes the work, by now as grmy as the overalls of an engneer. He has kept account of tho tme the woman has been engaged upon t, and for each of the many days she may have worked he gves her 7, 8, J), at most 12 cents, but never tho last amount unless she be a thorough mstress of her craft. Once a year the Mexcans for whom the women do ths work, somewhat as the sweatshop tolers.of Chcago and New York drve ther needles for a master, meet n solemn conference and determne what the prces shall be. So great s the popularty of drawn work generally that the supply never equals the demand, and the profts made by the Mexcan masters of the drawn work trust, for t s really that, are enormous. he dealer pays these "operators" what they demand, nnd they demand much. herefore the buyer pays.$10 for a "cloth" that costs tho "manufacturer" 12 cents a day, labor hre, for. say, nnety days, to produce.

Nor was the fancy confned to buttons. Gentlemen sealed ther letters wth smlar desgns, and a lttle later they were to be found on the backs of playng cards and even on women's fans. Dr. Sacheverell's head, agan, was made use of to ornament tobacco stoppers, crockery and smlar artcles.

15 BOX OFf re RCKS. Merth of m Wlteater eleet Seller s Not u Snecure. o tne average t,ueater {.jour the man who sts behnd the wcket n the box offce attd sells tckets seeuh ta have one of the snecures of earth. ruo* he has to answer many fool questons and deal wth many fool persons who are often ugly because others wth more foresght have pcked up early all the good seats. He has to handle dplomatcally the woman who wants dollar seats for 75 cents a.ud wth the other fellow who wants "frst row, center," after the play has begun and that haa been sold for a week ahead. But all these thngs soeu but hs share of the mnor lls of earth. Outsde of them apparently hs job s what s generally known aa a "snap." But' the man u the box otlce has otuer thngs to do besdes sell tckets. rue, that s where he cones n eontact wth the general publc, and that s all that s usually thought about hs dutes. But at the same' tme he s servng the publc he s workng for two masters behnd the scenes, the propretor of the house and the manager of the attracton, and he must serve them equally, whle ther nterests sometmes conflct sharply.. Furthermore, he must serve them as aganst the publc f need there be, and t feeeps hm hustlng to hold hs job to do t too. he man behnd the wcket s a good man f he can make you buy a seat that costs you more than you ntended to nvest to see that partcular "show" all attractons n a playhouse are "rnowa" n the parlance, be they opera, comedy or vaudevlle. Now, most men thnk they know what they are gong to get when they vst a theater, and they especally have the prce fxed n ther mnds. Perhaps, psychologcally speakng, they are stronger mnded than the house treasurer. hen they do get what they want, and he never 'questons t. But the average man s not. he treasurer s traned n tcket sellng. t s hs dally routne, whle "t s an occasonal act on the man's part Hence he s fortfed for the publc, and the latter s not for hm, and so when the people step up. especally f t s rather late and there s somethng of a rush, a clever tcket man can easly get the extra prce out of them for a hgher sellng seat. How does he do t? largely by the power of suggeston. He mples that you want t, for nstance, when you go up. n other words, he puts the queston as to what prced seat by askng you about the hgher ones before he mentons the lower ones, and when he does refer to the latter, at your suggeston, he does t rather apologetcally. He has the hgher rate tckets n hs band, and f you do not take them he reaches to the rack for the others, and all the tme the lne s watng, those back of you are scowlng, f not makng remarks, and every one wthn earshot of the wndow knows that you have refused the hgher seats for the lower prced ones. hs s embarrassng. Especally s t so f a grl s wth you, watng just outsde the ral that separates the mob from the lne, and the chances are 10 to 1 that you wll take the cue, nvoluntarly, and pay a quarter more, when you had no ntenton of dong so when you approached the clever man n the box. hat s one way. t doesn't requre any falsehood. t does requre a good knowledge of human nature. Some men wouldn't "stand for" that. hey would be offended, and t mght hurt the house. hat s for the treasurer to beware. He must "sze up" hs customers and act accordngly. here s n great gan n tme u sellng wthout a chart. A man wll then step up and ask for a "good seat" about a certan place. Hunnng through hs lsts, the seller fnds hm somethng very near there, and he s satsfed. hat one man s fnshed n af'few seconds. t would take mnutes f the sheets were there. me s mportant when the orchestra s playng and the curtan about to go up. Stll further, the absence of a chart enables the seller to "dress" hs house, provlded the sale s lght, and to keep out "sngles" f t s heavy. "Sngles" arc seats loft alone when the adjonng pars have been selected from a chart "Sngles" are hard to KO because very few persons attend n theater alone. Almost all Rents are sold n pars, A treasurer wth a bunch of "sngles" on hs hands, even wth a house threatenng to sell, out. s "up aganst t," for often he wll lose Hales that- would hnve meant capacty but for the fact that he cannot place a couple n adjonng seats, though he may have several odd oed left. "Dressng" a house s the avodance of thn condton n one sense, but t apples to lght houses generally. When nulow n not dong well t s up to the box ofllce to make the house look full even though t be only partly aolld Ho doea thn by, scatterng the crowd Btead of fselllfj; a secton sold fcr leavng adjonng HOCUOJH vacant h< Bells a few here, a few there, and tlus the empty Npaws urn not concentrated Men usually dress a house from the oftor out. 1K\V wll nol;'«good part of the wtor noctlon, cntorlg, urn" Su' wll work out on (he left mll rght. hn H HKNMSO m l ntn on the ox trono ortgc of tn; homw nre not B< good, twll people expect them to be vj cant except n a neavy house anyhow and do not notce them so soon.
