SACKAMEXTO. Itcsmea l'rom Ljut hinj; by th Aft of a Tripling Young (Jlrl. It was uu odd name or a girl Sac laiiKsato. So the jrirl Lor.sulf thought as she Ktuojit'd tlowu beside a spriug at the foot of a eottouwood true aud lazily' dropped lier pail into tlio water. "It oiijjht to havo boeu given to a ly, if it was a lit name to givo to any. body," sho said quite aloud. "But I'm inoro boy than girl, anyway." . 'ills fact was added rather bitterly, us she looked at her brown, rouo-h hands and her Laro ankle,-and thou"Tit of tho "boy's work" she had to do. And It was hard to bclievo that this was tho best kind of life for a young girl like S:tcrameuto. Here she livod all alone, for her father was down at the mouth of tho canyon all day. The garden work sho was obliged to do, aud tho care .of tho cattle fell upon her. It was not often that she saw any per son but her father, although now and then, in spite of herself, she came in contact with tho rude men of the min ium camp up above. Yet Sacramento had hor dream, one that sho "scarcely dared to own," but it came to her often as sho went about her work. She knew that down at Santa Bar bara and in tho towns along tho coast, and far, far away across wide stretches of continent to the great East, there were girls who livwd very different from her life, and sho dreamed of such a life for herself. Oli, if i could only get away from hcrol ' she cried out almost as one cries out for help. "If I could only go down to San Francisco and go to school there for a single year. All, if I had $5001" Suddenly thure was a step not a man, but of a horse on the bank be hiud iter, and then some one spoke. Shu knew the voice without looking up. It was I'lte Larrabee, a fellow "who lived down on Ilahueuian's plantation, two miles along tho trail. Ho some times rode by. He had not heard her lat words at all; yet, strangely enough his own was a repetition of them. "Five hundred dollars. Sac," said he; ".fiOu in gold! D'ye want ter earn it? There's yer chance," and he threw down to her a bit of paper crumpled into a ball. She picked it up, and slowly unfold ing it, ran her eyes over its contents: $.A I'.KWARI). , Tho above amount will bo paid for information leading to tho arrest, deal or alive, of Walter Somers, who lias worked for some time past on Max well's ranch. Said Somers is about 18 years old and five and a half feet high, blue eyes and a light mustache. When last seen he had on a black slouch bat, gray business suit, and bluo flannel iiirt and boots with red tops marked wiih maker's name. The name of the county sheriff was signed nt the bottom of the bill. Sac ramento, having glanced it through, looked up. lie's oeen a stealin' horses!" ex claimed l'cte. "Got oil' last night with four of Maxwell's best, some winTes. 'I hat reward won't do much iuoil, though. The regulators'll lasso him and string him up long 'foro the law'li gii started. They're bavin' a iiii-etiu' l ow up at the gulch. I tell e t.'.ey are mad. They'll make quick work if they ketch him. Yer father'! there. Ye neodn't look for him homo afore night much." Ttien, after a word or two more, tho man rode on, and presently Sacra mento took up her pail, and with tho sheriff's bill still in her hand, went slowly up the bank and across tho trail toward the house, thiuking very seri ously about the bill all the while. ll was some hours after this, and the afternoon sun was going down behind the tops of tho mountains, that Sacra mento, having linished her housework, was preparing to sit down on the porck to dv her sewing, when she was m,et In tiie doorway by a young man sho had never seen before. And yet he was no stranger. Tho girl knew him instant ly, although the slouch hat was pulled down over the flaxen hair and blue eyes, and the gray pants, torn aud muddy, had been drawn out of tho boot legs so as to no louger allow tho red tops of tiie boots with the maker's name to be seeu. It was tho horse thiei. . She did not, however, express any surprise as she saw him. Sho was ac customed to the sight of rough, evil men; and at the first glanco sho had felt that this one could not bo either very wicked or very dangerous. Ho was not much more than a lad, and had an air of gentleness and good breeding about him that six months of Western life and tho plight he was in at that moment, had by no means des troyed. He seemed to be short for breath, too, and was trembling as if he had been running.' Instinctively ho raised his hand to ward his head, and then, bethinking himself, droppod it again. "Could you givo ino something to eat and drink?" ho asked in a hesitat ing voice. "Anything will do, I am very hungry. 1 I havo had nothing to eat since last night." "Come in," said Sacramento grave ly. In her voice there was noither kindness or uukindnoss, sho was trying to realize tho situation sho was in. "Conio in and sit down!" Then sho went into a closet near by, and began taking down milk and bread aud meat, as she slowly did so turning tho matter over in her mind. Hero was this man who had been stealing horses, and for whoso capture $o00 was tdlered, iu her own kitchen. Fivo hundred dollars! Exactly the sum she had beeu wishing for tho sum that would take her down to Sau Francisco to school and make a lady of her. And this sum may bo hers if sho could in somo way secure this stranger or some how keep him in the house until help arrived. HolpP Why sho hardly need ed help. Ho was weak and exhausted, and in tho drawer of the kitchen table thoro was a loaded revolver, which she well knew how to use. Sho came out presently, and set tho things before him, bringing also the teapot from tho stovo ami pouring for him a cup of tea. . Thou sho went ami sat down by tho window, and watched him furtively as ho ate. In spile of his caution, he had taken off his hat while ho was eating. Sho could better see what he was like. It was almost a boyish faco, worn, but THE 1)A11A UAIBO tiULjk'riN. TUESDAY ilOHNlKe SEPTEMBER 16, 1884. not wicked, with the curllnz hair lvincr in dark cluster! upon his pale brow. In the hands, small and well-shaped, and in all his motions and maimer, she felt that she could read something of his story. She bad heard before this how young lads in the East, tilled with romantic notions about Western life and advontu'ro, sometimes left their luxurious homes and found their way to the ranches of the Faeltic. Perhaps ho was one of these. . As she looked at him, fancying all this, aud realizing the terrible strait he was in and, the probable dark fate that was before him, her heart yearned with true womanly sympathy, and hor feeling found expression before she was able to restrain herself. "Oh, how could you do it? - How could you do it?" sho suddenly ex claimed, her voice quite full . of what j tie felt. Ho looked up at her in wonder, but as his eyes met hers ho understood hor. "I didn't do it. Upon my honor I did not," he said. "It was that man Dennis." Sacrameuto breathed a great sigh of relief. Horso stealing was held in that section to bo a crimo worse than murder; and she was by no means free from the popular estimate ol grave nature. "Oh, I am so glad of that!" cried she. "But " she hesitated, and then went on doubtfully, "Hut, then, how wm it? Why did you run away?'1 "It was Dennis' doings, their laying It to me. Ho did that to clear himself. And after that you know as well as I do that there would havo been no use trying to prove myself, innoceut They always hang a horso thief first, and then considor lis guilt afterward.' I had to run to save my life." "Do you know that there Is a roward offered for your capture?" "I know that tho regulators aro af ter me." answered the young man sul lenly. "They came pretty near catch ing me, too, this noon. I just escaped them, and came down the canyon by tho mountain trail. I havo had a hard run for it, and with no sleep for twenty four hours, I am about used up. I felt as though I could not go another step, wheu 1 Baw your house. Now you havo been very good to me. I shall never forget " "But what are you going to do ow?" interrupted Sacramento. "You are not safe here." "1 know it. But I threw them off tho track this noon, and I do not think they are within live miles of me. Now 1 havo had something to eat, I will take to tho woods a;aiu. I hope I may get clear away, if I don't" his voice trembled and tears came into his eyes. "If I dont, I shall got a hanging I sup pose. Oh, what a fool I was not to prefer homo to this sort of thing! And yet, I wouldn't care so much either, if it was nH for my poor father and mother." And here the poor fellow fairly broke down. "Hark!" SacrameDto exclaimed. She had been crying, too. She could not help it They both- listened. In a moment they both heard plainly the sound of horses coming down the traiL Tho girl turned with instant self-possession: "Go in there! Quick! Quick! There is not a moment tq lose. Here, take your hat!" After handing his hat to him she half pushed hi in across the room and in to her own little room that led off from it. Then she hurriedly cleared tho table again, barely tinishiug the task as the horsemen halted at the door. There were three of them. One was her father. Sacramento knew tho oth er two men by sight. They were rough, but of the better sort of those who made up the dwellers of Kelly Gulch. The faces of all three were stern and forbidding, and they evidently had been riding hard. They dismounted together. Sac," began her father, as he en tered the door, "hev you seen anything pf a young chap afoot or a horseback Coming this way?" Sacramento had expected the ques tion and was ready for it. And she meant, If possible, to answer without a lie. "A young chap about 18 years of age, and fivo feet and a half high, rath er good looking, with red top boots?" replied she. "Yes! yes! That's him!" cried one of the other men. "Has he been hero?" "1 was only quoting from this hand bill," said Sacramento, taking the pa per from the shelf where sho had laid it. "Then you hain't seen him at all?" asked her father. "I havo been right hero all day, and nobody has gone by except Pete Larra beo. It was ho who gave mo tho bill. Are you sure that he came this way the the horso thieir "No; but we didn't know but he might. Tho chances is that he sloped off to the mountains, mcanin' to go through Stovepipe pass. They'll get him though, aforo sundown." "It's sundown now," observod Sac ramento. 1 "then they've got him now." was tho sententious response "And we snau uo too late tor tiie nangin of we sh'd go back. Leastways" this was added to his companions "you'd bet ter come in and have a bite afore you go." So presently tho three mon sat down to the supper that the young girl quick ly prepared for thorn. " Ana while they wero eating, she herself, at her father's bidding, went out to take tho saddle otl'Bucno, his horse, and givo him food. As she approached the door once more a few minutes after, she heard words which caused her to stop and listen. "I don't like ter say anything against thet kid o' yourn, neighbor," one of the men was saying, "but it hcz kinder seemod ter mo all ther while's though she sorter lied some' at on hor mind like. Ye don't s'poso she knows any thing 'bout thet young fellorarter all?" Sacramento's father laughed at this, as though it was too absurd to bo con sidered. .Tuo other, however, was not to bo laughed out of his suspicions. "For all we know, sho may hev hid him somowhoro on the prommysis." "It's easy enough to see," returned tho proprietor of tho said "prerumy sis,'1 testily. "Whore d'ye think slio's hid himP In her bod-room?" As he said this, Sacramento, who was now near enough to see Into tho kitchen, raw her father rise from his chair and stop to tho door of the room where she concealed the fugitive. Her j hoart almost stopped beating as she saw him push open tho door and enter tho room, followed by his companions. "Wo'll mako a clus search of It, while we're about it," she heard him say within. : And then she stood there in terrible suspense upon tho porch? expecting to hear the shout that would follow the discovery of the fugitive. But no such shout was heard; and instead of it, a moment later the two men came out again, her father still laughing at his friends. What could it mean? Had the young man been able to conceal himself in the room and so evade their search? That was not possible. Then sho thought of tho window. Could he have escaped from the room by that? The window was so small she could scarcely bellovo that ho could have crept through. And yet he must have done so. She went hurridly to the back of the house and then down beyond the horse sheds. No one could bo seen. She halted a moment undor a live-oak tree just at the edge of the garden. The evening was very calm and still, and tho twilight shadows were deepening fast. Was it the rustling of the wind in the boughs overhead that caught her ear? She listened. "Hist! I rm hero in tho tree." The words came in a distinct whisper from directly above her. She stood there and thought a single moment before replying. Then sue said: "You must get away from here at once," in an eager whisper. "One of the men suspects something, and they may at any moment make asoarch of the placo. I am going into the house a minute. Get down at once and go through the garden and across tho trail to a spring that you will find there. It's at the foot of a big cotton wood tree. Stay right there until I come." Then sho went hurridly to the house. The three men wero still sitting at the tablo and Sacramento felt rather than saw that one of them still regarded her suspiciously as she came in. She did not speak to ihem at all, but went di rectly through tho kitchen to her own room and in a moment more camo out, went about her work in the kitchen and took up a pail, apparently to go to the spring for water. Ten minutes later, standing in the shadows of the cottonwood, young Somers heard a step, and then Sacra mento, leading Bueno all saddled and bridled, appeared. Ho started for ward. "Hush!" sho said; "they may come at any moment Listen to what I say. Your life depends on it. You must ride straight down the trail for a quar ter of a mile. Then, close by a bi cottonwood just like this, you will strike a path to the left. Bueno will know it onco you get him in it It will bring you, but half a milo on, to a cor duroy road that crosses the swamp. Tho end of this corduroy has got out of order, and there are somo logs laid. Lead Bueuo across and pull the logs away. If you do that it will make trouble for those who follow you. Be yond tho swamp is a big plain. Strike straight across it, having the moon square on your right the moon will bo up by that time and three hours' riding will bring you to the new rail road. After that God help you to get saioaway: Sacramento paused and put out her hand. "Can you remember?" she de manded. "I can, but I can never forget " "Never mind that. Here, take this. It is a little monev. You will need it Now mount and ride slowlv a 'little way, and then for your life." ino young man still bad hold of her hand. The tears came into his eyes. The next moment he was gome. me next morning Sacramento told her father the story and coaxed him into forgiving her. And the following afternoon a man brought Bueno over from the railroad town, and then she knew the fugitive was safe. Six weeks later a lawyer from Santa Barbara appeared with a letter from VY alter Somers. He was with his frieuds in New York. He begged Sac ramento to accept, as a gift of grati tude, at least the amount of the reward that had been offered. And so it was that she went down to San Francisco to school that winter af ter all- The Insignificance of Humanity. A spectator who.seping a bubble float ing on a great river, had his attention so absorbed by the bubble that he ignored tho river nay, even ridiculod anvono who thought that tho river out of which the bubble arose and into which it would presently elapsn de served recognition, would fitly typify a disciple of M. Comte, who, centering all his higher sentiments on humanity, holds it absurd to let either thought or feeling be occupied with that great stream ol creative power, unlimited in space or in time, of which humanity is.a transitory product Even if, instead of being the dull, leaden-hued things it is, the bubble humanity had reached that stage of iridescence of which, happily, a high sample of man or woman sometimes shows us a begin ning, it would still owe whatever there was in it of beauty to that infinite and eternal energy out of which humanity has quite recently emerged, and into which it must in courso of time, sub side. As with thousands of lower typos of creatures which have severally illustrated the truth that the life and death of the individual prefigure in brief space the life and death of the race, so with this highost type of creature, man: a beginning and end to humanity are no less certain than the beginning and end to tho human being. And to suppose that this relatively evanescent form of existence ought to occupy our minds so exclusively as to leave no space for a consciousness of that ulti mato existence of which It Is but one form out of multitudes an ultimate existenco which was manifested In infinitely varied ways before humanity arose, and will be manifested in in finitely varied other ways whon human ity has ceased to be, seems very strange to mo, indeed, amazing.
