MotwnnvEa, THE NDOF 1CEB0AT1NG, MOST OF THElCE BOATS TAKEN OFF THE RVER. Tts Wnter Was Seen the longest Spell ot ce Boat nn n Mann Hears,andthe. Sport Was Enoyed Almost Every Dau.. The value of the Shrewsbury rver to the town of Red Bank waa. never more clearly shown than durng the two mentha of cold weatber whch has just ended.. n the summer the rver s by long odds the chjef attracton of the town, but t was never more of an attracton than t has been ths wnter. Ever snce the early part of January, when the rver froze up hard enough to bear the weght of the smau ce boats, the sport of ce boatng has been enjoyed. The sport has brought many vstors to the town. Whle perhaps no fnancal advantage has been reaped thereby, t wllprove an advantage to the town ndrectly by showng the possbltes n the way of wnter sports., Red Bank s sad to have a longer ce boatng season than any other town n the country. Ths may sound strange, especally as everyone knows that the upper Hudson rver s always frozen up for nearly three months every year. But up the Hudson the rver does not freeze from shore to shore as t does here. The upper part of the rver freezes along the shores and ths ce s loosened by the current and carred down untl t jams aganst co further down the rver. The pressure of the current forces t nto humps and hllocks, whch makes ce boatng almost mpossble. Even n seasons of ntense cold, when the rver does freeze from shore to shore, there are usually many falls of snow, and any ordnary fall of 6now puts ce boats out of busness^ The Shrewsbury rver does not always freeze over n wnter, and sometmes there s a great deal of ce boatng up the Hudson and n other northern places when there s none at all here; but takng one year wth another t s sad that there are more days of ce boatng on the Shrewsbury than on any-other body of. wuter.n the country. j. One reason why ce 1, baatng s screnjoyable on the Shrewsbury,s because the ce boatmen are BO thoroughly free from snobbery,.the ce boat club s the most democratc club n the town, of Red Bank. The owners of the fast rao-. era, the men who lve on ther mpney and who own and sal ce boats for ther own pleasure, and the boy who owns a lttle two by twce ce boat, all meet on terms of perfect equalty. The best method of hangng, a sal, the detals of handlng a boat so as to-pet the best possble speed out of t, and other ce boat talk, are conducted wth the utmost freedom, wth no restrctons as to socal standng. The same condtons meet vstors and strangers. The swftest racers, the fnest apponted^ boats, and the humblest and smallest ce boats n the fleet, are all offered for the entertanment of vstors wth the same unvaryng hosptalty. On the rver n summer there s ^a great deal of ths free masonry, but nothng n comparson wtltthe overflowng good nature and genalty of the ce boat season. One of the pecular thngs.about ce boatng s the fact that no matter what name a man may gve to hs boat the ce boatng publc gves t a name to sut tself, and that name stcks to t. Wllam OBren owns an ce boat whch he named the Mame. The shears for holdng up the lateen sal are made of heavy galvanzed ppe. The boat had hardly appeared on the rver before someone spoke of t as the Mame Gasppe, and t has been known by ths name ever snce, no ono ever speakng of t smply as tho Mame, but always as the Mame Gasppe. Charle Burd has bult tlroo ce boats but has never had the pleasure, of namng anyone of them, tho publc ulways havng dono that for hm. Ho says that sometme he.s gong to buld a boat Bolely for tho purpose of namng t hmself. Throe boats appdued on fl\e rver ths year wth lug sals." Ths sal as appled to ce boats s a modfcaton of the lteon Bal. Tho Bal s hung between flhoars n much tho name manner us a latnen sal, but tho peak polo s more horzontal than the regular lateen, and tho front pont of tho ltoon sal n cut away. Thla nal was frst produced by GUB Havlund a couple of years ago, when lo,appled t to tho Nancy HrnlB, a small bout wth a spread of ten feet. Tho sal proved an excellent rg. Copt. Qcorgo Colcy, who nals BOHO ofttho bggest pleasure yhohte n the country n tho summer, and who has had more experence wth, sals than any other Red Banker, has beep watchng the performances of the lug. sals ths wnter wth a.great dealof nterest. He say 8 that the lug salfl haw two or three VHry dstnct ponts of advantage over the lateen rg, and nextwnter, f there s any ce boatng, t s^proposed to. try some of the changes n the lug sal rg whch he has suggested. On Sunday Mr. Wlson, the senor member of the frm of Wlson & Grffth, who made the sals of most of the boats whch have defended the Amercas cup, was at Red Bank to see the sals of the boats here. u. There was a good breeze on Sunday and most of the ce boats on the rver were out. The ce was very smooth, and the wnd was farly fresh. The ndcatons were that warm weatber was about to.set n and the ce boatmen wanted to get all the fun out of the sport that was- possble. The wnd was strong enough to keep the wndward runners of most of the boats n the ar a good part of the tme. Some of the boats can sal very well on two runners. Jakey Corn wells boat, the Aurora, s the best two-runner boat on the rver by Jong odds. Hs boat can sal nearly half a mle on two runners n a steady wnd. Hs boat s ftted up more for comfprtthan any other ce boat on the rver. t has a bg cockpt, wth hgh sdes, and robes and furs make ce boatng more of a pleasure for those who are not used to the sport than n other boats where the cockpt s small and where the boat s ftted up for speed. Although the Aurora s not ntended for speed t won the pennant, for the thrd class boats on Saturday, and all day Sunday the boat skmmed over the rver wth the long streamer tralng from ts masthead. The boats dd all. knds of stunts on Sunday, from salng along on two runners to whrlng round and round when they were brought up too sudden n the wnd. Two boats went through the ce. One of thess boats was W. Strother Joness, He was salng over the rver and saled drectly nto a sheet of open water. The boat broke through as Boon as the thn ce was reached, and when the boat went down n the water a cake of ce. ht Mr- Jones on the head. He was" dazed by the blow, but he managed to crawl out of the boat on the ce.. He got to frm ce by crawlng along whle stretched out at full length on the ce, n order to dstrbute hs weght over as much surface as possble. He lost hs hat and got soaked through n the cy water, but asde from ths he suffered no njury. Hs boatwas rowed ashore. The other boat whch broke through was the Nancy Hanks, owned by Mr. Blanohard. Young Mr. Blanchard was n the boat, and lke Mr. Jones he got a thorough drenchng. Hs boat s small and was got out. wthout much trouble by Fred Fsher.. The weather ndcatons pn Sunday, afternoon betokened a storm and the Scud and most of the other bg boats were taken off the rver that nght. Almost all the other boats were dsmantled and taken ashore the next day and the ce boat Benson of came to an end.» Death Clams Pad.

How the Offsprng of Out-Frst Colonsts Were Chrstened. t s an nterestng study to trace the underlyng reason for many of the curous names whch are gven to the offsprng of the frst colonsts. Parents searched for names of deep sgnfcance for names approprate to condtons, for those of profound nfluence presumably on the chlds lfe. The Rev. Rlcuard Buck, one of the early parsons n Vrgna, n days of deep depresson, named hs frst chld Mara. Ths text ndcates the reason for hs choce: "Cull me Mara, for the Almghty has dealt very btterly wth me. 1 went out full, and the Lord has brought me home empty." Hs second chld was chrstened Gershom for Moses wfe "bare hm a son and called hla name Gershom, for he sad have been n a strange land." Many names have a pathos nnd sadness whch can be felt down through the centures. Dame Dlnely, wdow of a doctor, o barber surgeon, who had ded n the snow whle strvng to vst a dstant patent, named her poor babe Fathergone. The chldren of Roger Clapp were named Experence, Watstll, Preserved, Hopestlll, Walt, Thanks, Decde, Unte and Supply. Madam Austn, an early settler of old Narragansett, had 15 chldren. Ther names were Parvs, Plcus, Persus, Prlsemus, Polyblus, Los, Lettlee, Avs, Anstce, Eunce, Mary, John, Elzabeth, Ruth, Preelove. All lved to he threescore and ten, one to be 102 years old. Edward Bendalls chldren were named Truegrace, Reform, Hoped For, More Mercy and Restore. Rchard Grldleys offsprng were Return, Beleve and Tremble. Faults n Decoraton.

Smth lves at Bayonne. He worked for Holmes a month last year and he clams that when he went away Holmes owed hm $7. n January Smth returned to Marlboro and accordng to Holmes8 story he demanded hs money at the pont of a revolver. Holmes was so frghtened that he went to Marlboro for a constable and had Smth arrested for assault. Smth was held for the grand jury but he, waved ndctment and was tred last week wthout a jury. At the tral Holmes testfed that he had hred Smth at $11 a month; that he pad hm the entre amount n two dfferent payments; and that when Smth went away he was ndebted to hm to the amount of $3.80 for tobacco. As ordnary chewng tobacco costs only lve cents a package, Smth must have chewed 60 packages of tobacco durng the month that ho workod for Mr. Holmes to havo expended ths amount. Smth sworo that Holmes had pad hm only $4 of the $11 that he agreed to pay hm. Ho admtted havng gone from Bayonno to Holmoss place expressly to collect tho money, but ho dened havng a revolver wth hm.

Stanley Clark, son of the Methodst mnster at Belford, has been lookng lp the hstory of the Methodst church at that place and he has come across well preserved records that trace the hstory of Methodsm n Mddletown townshp to the early part of the last century. The records, whle vague, moke t certan that crcut preachers held servce n tle vonty of Harmony as early as 180. * n the early daysof Methodsm,before churches were establshed, t was mpossble to support many mnsters. n those days one mnster would have charge of a very large terrtory. Mnsters n those days were known as crcut rders, because they rode over ther crcuts, usually on horseback. Two mnsters would be apponted.to a crcut when a crcut had grown to such proportons, and meetngs were held at so many dfferent places, that onemnstercould not do the work. The crcut rders were entertaned durng ther, trps by the prnppal Methodsts of the localtes vsted. n1825 Rev. James Mfrore was n charge of the Freehold crcut, whch embraced all of Mddletown townshp at that tme. He held meetngs n the house at Belford now occuped by Wl. Ham V. Compton, and at Chapel Hll n a house that was occuped by a Mr. Wolff. la 1829 Mss Hannah Herbert (afterwards Mrs. Joseph Collns) opened a Sunday-school n her house at Harmony and nvted crcut preachers to preach there. New Jersey was then a part of the Phladelpha conference. n 1820 Rev. J. Woolson and Rev. J..F. Canfeld were apponted by the conference to be Freehold crcut. They held.servce n a house at Harmony where Aaron Morrs once lved and on the ste of whch s the house now occuped by Henry Penlermann.. A socety was organzed at Harmony about 1830 and a class was formed wth Wllam VanDneas leader. He s remembered by many of the older resdents of Mddletown townshp. n 1831 Rev. Aonas Neal and Rev. saac Felch were apponted to the crcut. The next year ~ they-wflffl mwoet <1«1- by- Rev. -Davd-Burton and Rev. Thomas G. Stewart, Durng these two years a great relgous revval spreud over the crcut and over 700 people were couverted. Harmony shared n the fruts of ths revval and the buldng of a church began to be serously consdered. n 1836 the New Jersey conference was organzed and the Freehold crcut was dvded. Chapel Hll, Harmony, Bethany and Keyport were set off by themselves and were cnllcd the Mddletown crcut. The erecton of a church at Harmony was begun at about ths tme on a lot bought from Slas New- man. Rev, Mujford Day and Rev. W. Robertson were n charge of the crcut then. The church wns dedcated March 15th, t cost $800 and t was supposed to have been dedcated free of debt, but, as sometmes happens n there days, the subscrptons were not all pad, and the church had to shoulder a debt of $200. Ths, whle n comparatvely small amount, proved very burdensome. Ths Bame church staudb at Harmony to-day, but t has snce been remodeled; and servces are held there every Sunday afternoon by the preacher n charge of tho Belford Methodst church. ( At about the same lme that Metbodsm was ganng a foothold at Harmony the work wab flourshng at Chapel Hll. The Methodst socety at Chapel Hll bought the buldng known as Hgh Pont chapel, whch had been bult by the Baptsts n When the Navesnk church was bult n 1845 the chapel was abandoned and was sold to Deacon Andrew Bownopf the Mddletown Baptst ohurch. Upon Andrew Bownos death tho chapel became the property of tho Mddletown Baptst church, by whch t has snce beon mantaned as a msson, At tho frst sesson of tho Now Jersey conference) n 1838 Rev. Jacob Loudenslager ^and Rov. Ocorgo Wardon were apponted to the Mddlotown crcut. They were auccueded tho followng yonr by Rov. Janee JLorg and Rov. L. R.

Durng Mr. Andrews pastorate the Methodst church at Rcevlle (now Navesnk) was bult, and that place became a part of the Keyport crcut. Whle Mr. Andrew was n charge of the crcut the frst class was organzed at Port Monmoulh at that part of the vllage now called Belford wth Peter Denns as leader. Port Monmouth at ths tme was made an appontment for preachng servce, frst at the house of Peter Denns and later n the publc schoolhouse. n 1846Rev, Mr. Burroughs n.nd. Rev, Mr, Gray were apponted to be crcut. -They served foe two yeara and durng ths tme the d&bt en the Harmony church was pad off and the crcut was bult up both sprtually and fnancally. n 1848 and 1819 Rev. Socrates Townsend rode the crcut. Durng hs pastorate three young men, Whtecar, Yard and Trotter, covered the crcut for a few months as supples, n 18S0 Rev.

Samuel Jaquett was the preacher and S. T. Moore was hs assstant. n 1854 Keyport was set off as a separate crcut and Rcevlle (now Navesnb), Chappl Hll and Port Monmoutb (now Belford), became known as the Chapel Hll crcut. Rev, John H. Stockton was apponted preacher. Durng hs pastorate,there was a bg revval n the crcut and many persons were converted who afterward became the most useful members of the churches wth whch they unted. n 1856 Rev. Peter Y. (Jalder became pastor and the name of the crcut was changed from Chapel Hll to Rcevlle.. - One of the bggebt revvals n the early days was n-1858, durng the pastorate of Rev. Wllam A. Brooks. A revval servce was held at Rcevlle. Urah Seeley and.wllam M. Foster, who then lved at Port Monmouth, walked to Rcevlle one nght to attend the meetng. Mr. Seeley was converted at the meetng and Mr. Foster was converted after he reached home. They took up Methodst work n the schoolhoube at Port Monmouth, where stated meetngs were beng held. Amonp those converted ot that tme were Job Conpton, Thomas ;S.. Wallng, Capt. Wllam H. Seeley, John. Compton and Joseph Lee, all of whom are lvng except Mr. Lee. Urah Seeloy now lves at Orange and s actve n the Baptst church. Wllam M. Foster lves at Atlantc Hghlands and stll clngs to the Methodst fath. Capt. Wllam H, Seeley has embraced the Baptst fath and beleves n mmerson, close communon and all. All the others reman n the Methodst church. As a result of ths revval the buldng of a Methodst church at Port Monmouth (now Belfordf was agtated, but not unlt 1804 waa the buldng begun. Rev. Ananas Lawrence was pastor at that tme. Rcevlle (or Navesnk) was set apart as a, separate appontment at that tme and Rev. J. H. Hutchnson was apponted^ pasto, The commttee apponted to buld the Port Monmouth church was composed of Thomas S. Wallng, Joseph S. Wallng, Capt, James Seeley, Wllam Lee and Capt. Wllam H. Seeley. John N. Johnson, Sr., who stll lves at Belford, was the boss workman. When work on the church was under way Mr. Johnson and several of the workmen were drafted for servce n the cvl war and ths retarded the work for some tme. Mr. Johnson fnally rased the money to avert the draft and work on the churoh was pushed to completon. The church cost about $8,500 and t was dedcated free of debt. At the dedcaton servce 75 persons joned the churoh on probaton as the rebult of n revval at Harmony.

13 HE CURSED THE TOWN. End of the Frst Captal of llnos ^-ophested by al ndan. _Slnce the waters of the Msssspp, "rlrar washed away the last vestge of Kaskaska v the frst captal of llnos, an old legend that contaned theproph- "ecy of the.total destructon of the once flourshng lttle cty has been recalled. Kaskaakla was stuatedon a pennsula at the juncton of the Kaskaska and the Msssspp rvers, and n 1882 the Msssspp rver cut ts way through,the pennsula, leavng the remnant of the town on an sland. *The water contnued to wash away the rch alluval deposts oh whch KasUaska was bult untl, late n 1800, the last foot of the land where the town once stood dsappeared. Ths sngular endng of Kaskaskas once splendd ambtons has recalled to the supersttous the story that the town was cursed n the eghteenth century by an ndan who had been wronged by. one of the leadng ctzens. Jean Benard came to ths country from Prance n 1698, brngng wth hm hs wfe and hs 10-year-old daughter Mare. The famly settled n Kaskas- da, where. Benard establshed a merchandsng busness. The Frenchman soon became one of the most prosperous and "most nfluental men of the town. Mare-, hs daughter, grew to be a beautful woman, much courted by the most elgble young men of the new country. She was n no hurry to accept any of them, ^nd her fame as a belle spread from Lake Mchgan to the gulf of Mexco. A young chef of the Kaskaskla trbe of ndans, havng become converted,to Chrstanty after several years of study under the tutelage of the Jesuts, bult hmself a house n Kaskaska and was taken nto partnershp n one of the tradng houses there. He was prosperous, handsome and well educated andwas soon receved nto the homes of the whte settlers. One nght at a ball he happened to meet Mare Benard. * The grl was at once fascnated "by the tall, fne lookng ndan, who fell n love T^th her at frst sght and made no secret of hs admraton. But Benard pere soon notced the attachment and forbade hs daughter from communcatng wth the young ndan. To make sure that there would be no more meetngs Benard used hs nfluence to prevent the chef from attendng any of the socal entertanments gven n Kaskaskta. But love always fnds a way, and the joungequple managed to see each other despte all the precautons of the grls father. But Benard became aware of these meetngs and agan took means to prevent them. He wns a man of wealth and nfluence, and he had th&<ndlar forced out of hs.partnershp n the tradng, company. The ndan left Kaskaskla. For almost a year nothng was heard of hm, and Benard thought that hs daughter had forgotten her lover, for she appeared gay and careless, and she accepted wth apparent pleasure the attentons of a young Frenchman. One nght when a large ball at Kaskaskla was at ts heght Mare Benard dsappeared. Those who searched for Mare dscovered that the young chef of the Kaskasklans had been seen that even- ng n the town, and the concluson was at once reached that the grl had eloped wth hm. Benard at once organzed a party to go n pursut of the fugtves. As there was a heavy snow on the ground, ther tral was easly dscovered aud followed. The ndan and Mare had crept away afoot, and as ther pursuers were suppled wthfast horses the young lovers were captured after a days chase about 40 mles from KUbkaska. Ther destnaton bad been the French settlement at St. Lous, where tho ndan had provded a home for hs wfe. The ndan surrendered wthout resstance, and the posse started on the journey back to Kaskaska, takng the two captves. Most of the men who composed Benards party wanted to kll the ndan nstantly, but Benard would not allow t, for he sad ;that they should leave hm to deal wth hs daughters lover. When the party reached Kaskaskla, the grl was placed n the convent there. Then Benard took the ndan to the bank of tbo Msssspp and, bndng hm tghtly to a.log, turned hm adrft n the rver. As the helpless ndan footed away to hs death he rased hs eyeb to heaven and cursed Benard, who, ho declared, would de a volent death. Tho ndans, last words were a prophecy that wthn 200 years tho waters whch were then bearng hm away would sweep from tho earth every vestge of tho town, so that only the name would bo left.

MALLETS SECRET. A STORY OP SEA.COA8T PEOPLE. EdMallett had been the lazest man on the beach ever snce he had attaned hs majorty, though Zed Maljett,. hs half cousn once removed, ran hm a close race. Wth Zed the trouble was a, lack of bran power, for Zed would work. He was at t ncessantly, early and late, week n and week out, yet he never was beyond what the beach called poverty. That meant that there were never enough cornmeal and pumpkn n hs cabn at one tme to feed to fullness all of the hungry there and that always Zed was a dependent upon Captan Scott. On the other hand, Ed was smart. None could pray as he could, none could tell so many dfferent thngs about the dongs n sea, sky and earth as he, ndeed none dared try, for Captan Scott had sad that one prophet n the settlement waa enough at one tme. He could preach, too, could Ed, and whenever he dd so the congregaton went home quet and subdued, presumably much.edfed. And Ed would amble across the flelds, seekng out gaps n the fences rather than clmb to-hs own house under the rows of slver poplars that stood half. way between the. cove and the salt mll. There he would fnd hs wfe engaged n brushng and cuffng one or two of her numerous progeny whle the vands that were" to make hs mdday meal szzled on the stove. Ed was never known to do anythng besdes these thngs but read hs Bble n the best room, where the sea fans, shells and tny shp models made gaudy the whtewashed walls. There, n carpet slppers and whte canvaa clothes wnter or summer, wth the huge tome open on hs knees, he could be found any dny between "sunup and sundown." There Captan Scott found hm on the wnters day that the bark Break o Day went ashore nud routed hm out. The captan strode nto the room cryng: "Ed Mallet, gt out o 1 here, or ll kck ye out. Wlat nve been feedn ye an that there wfe o yourn for all these years? Thoya a wreck on the bnr, an ycro a-golnover wth me!" Ed obeyed wthout a dssentng gesture, the legend says. At all events the benchers who heard the dalogue for the frst tme learned how 12<1 had managed to lve. t was a revelaton that wrought sad havoc among them, but wth n "wrack on the bar" there was no tme to parley. t wll do no. harm to ndd, however, thnt Ed had represented to the beaeleh Hnt he had "marred money." And ths brnes us to the" few ncdents of Eds marrlage that were generally known on the bench. They are these: One day 12 years before the wreck of the Break o Day Ed saled away n Captan Jms batteau, the Else Ann for the sle of Wght bay wth a lond of shelled corn thnt he sad he was gong to trade off for "generals" ou the man laud. le was to be back n two days tme, but>ho dd not come. t was sx days before ho returned, and when tho sals of the batteau were sghted from Captan Scotts wharf the watchers ob served that thcro wore two forms the stern sheets nstead of one, "By gum, Ahll hot lods gono an go marred," cackled young Jmmy Ma ctt. No one Knsnll lm, prefcrrln to wnlt for facto n HO mportant a nn ter before venturng m opnon. WJw tlc bntttou rounded up to th< wharf, Ed helped a woman out. "My wfe, Capn Jm," ho Bald. Captan Bcott gave- tho ^ woman Bcarcblng look from head to foot and then slowly extended hln luul. Cnp tan Bcott would have gven mnjcstj tself tho eamo treatment. Tho womn tad k depth ot expresson n hor eye bat proclamedher not of beach Wood md was not abashed. She let her bapely hand clasp the horny fst of the old sea dog tor Just an nstant, and n that nstant she won hm, though hen he betrayed t by nether sgn nor ct The woman was not of the beach urely, as every lne and contour of her fgure showed. She was olve sknned, wth black har, and t lay n luxurous glossy cols over half of her head. She yas bosomed lke a goddess and had a reedom and supple length of lmb that hamed the narrow chested, ll shaped caeh women of starved blood and conlomerate lneage. Captan Jm looked from her to the nk, shamblng form of Ed and regs- ;ered a tremendous oath. Then he aughed strangely a,nd stumped off to :he house. When Ed took hs brde and hs bunes off to hs home, Captan Jm sat m the top of a sand dune and watched he par through the eyepece of hs bg larhe glass., n an hour the news of the marrage ad traveled as far as the lfe savng tatlon, whch- was at the uttermost art of the beach, But-dld they go to ee her? Not they. They would have led frst. So the beach had a mystery whch asted-jjand became greater each day. n tme t got to be sad that Captan m was n the secret, whatever t was,»ut Captan Jm was never known to ay more than was absolutely necessa- to any occason, so no one knew ore untl the day of the wreck of the reak o Day. Perhaps Mrs. Ed was as much starled as the others were when her husand-obeyed Captan Jms belest as e dd, but she sad nothng. What she ld was to toss a shawl over her head md follow them across the sand hlls the surf where the vessel lay beachu., -. Gathered there were all of the other olka, and among them ths woman assed, one of another race. Once rhen the men were slow n launchng fshng boat that they had brought rom the cove to ad the lfe Savers Bhe vaded nto the surf, bent her strength to the boat and sent t cuttng out nto the breakers. n the act the sleeve on r rght arm splt from cuff to shoulder, leavng bare a magnfcent arm that made the women envous. The crew of the shp reached the hore n safety, the sun broke through ;he clouds, and when the group broke up Eds wfe returned to the settlement n the center of the crowd, and Ed went alone, a dscovered lar on bom the ban of the settlement had aleady been placed. Ed was not seen agan that week by ny one outsde of hs own household. But before noon of the next day a meetng had been called n the-church, and t was decded to try Ed for lvng le all those years. Uncle George lumford was deputed to notfy the ulprt of ths fact. Uncle George delvered hs message^ o the wfe. All rght, Mr. Mumford; EdJl be here," she answered smply. Now, the beach had never had a bureh tral before, so on the mornng that was set for Eds the beaehers, men, women and chldren, assembled at the schoolhouse where t was to be leld. The ltttle church on the other do of the "dreen" was to know the presence of the snful lar no more. And t was clear that the culprt had been prejudged. The hour for the tral was near at land when some of tbe spectators trolled down the path toward Eds nouse. to see hm on hs way. Presenty the door opened, and Ed appeared. nd "Lordy goodness!" hs wfe was vlth hm. Tbetwo strode along sde )y sde to the partng of the paths, here the group stood, and there the vomnn halted. Ed stopped, too, and tood wth lowered face, knowng not vhere to turn or what to do, for the acos that met hs gaze were stern and nforglvlng. None sad a word untl dn wfe spoke. "Go on, Ed," she sad, stretchng the ong rght- arm that tbe group rememjered was so beautful toward the choollouhc. "Oo on an face em,an per shame bo wth ye!" Her voce broke, and tears rolled lown her cheeks. A gust of wnd loos-!tl the dark colls of her har, and n an nstaut she was wrapped n t, a wld und glorous spectacle to the awed group. "Go on, Ed," they echoed almost tenlerly, they knew not why, for n ther hearts they hated hm not so much, maybe, because of hs les as becabo he bad Hlmmcd the woman they loved but dd not know. Ed shambled on whle the group watched H wfe hurryng bad: to her home, wpng her tears from her eyes W» her (lowng har. Thou they turned nd fled slowly und slently toward the (choolhouhc. Uncle Tom Mallett, tho patrarch was tho chohun Judge for the trlnl, and when 15(1 appeared Uncle Tom roao and ponted a (nner of oeorn at hm. "Kd Mallett," he mld, H volco crack ng wth rlghtoouh passon, "yo lar an hlpporcrlt, net n that thcro cheer an beer tho word ngln ye." Ml dd H bddng, Dmmed nnd tron lllnr.
