VWestern Newspaper Union.) HERE had come a great change over Judson Marsh during the brief space of a year and Cedar Grove mar velled. Marsh had usually made the holidays a wild, riotous occasion of revelry, such as "shooting up the town," distributing time and money squanderiugly in games of chance, indulging In a fist tight dally, generally maintaining a terrorizing in fluence. Always lhad he Ilisdained the gentle cheer of Christmas and the good piledges of New Year's, but this especial Yuletide perioii he had re mained quietly on his ranch, had do nated freely to chart and only his eagle eye had flash i.nd his lips becamne stern and tirm rýsome derisive pial of the past sneeringly intimated that he had reformed and had taken "the goody, goody pledge!" No one could trace the cause of the remarkable alteration In manner and deed except Marsh himself and ie was a close mouthed man. Perhaps Gladys Revere suspected, buit if so she rcid nothing. She had come to the crude, wild settlement to teach school. The Marsh ranch was ten miles from the settlement and there was no school in its immediate vicinity. Its owner was a young man not over twenty-five years of age, hut he maintained quite an establishment. His widowed sister had lived with him until she died. leaving a shy, puny little girl, Made line, who was Idolized by Marsh. "I have come to see you about my little niece, Miss Revere," spoke Marsh. and his face and manner did not belie what she had heard of his being a well educated member of a prominent Eastern family. "She is lonesome where we live; never has any young companions. I have heard of your kindly care for these little ones. Won't you find her a good boarding place in the town and sort of look after her?" "She shall be as an own sister," repliedt Miss Revere spontaneously, taking the shy, reticent child in a tender embrace, and the result was that little Madeline became an occu pant of the home where Miss Revere boarded. Once a week Judson Marsh called to pass half an hour with Madeline. Up on eatl succeeding visit it pleased hiim to Itow, the change for the better in the child. Her devotion to her teach er was something pathetic. This was the pieriod when Judson Marsh - chnged his course of life. A time too whe] the 'merest passing word with Miss Revere seemed to cause him to I lft his head higher, and the influence ' of a worthy resolve was noticeable I In his bronzed, impressive face. It was about a month before. Christ. r mas when the settlement was visited by Marsh on horseback. There was something about him that reminded of his old time briskness abd forcible, imperative ways. In turn he visited twenty of the leading men and pre sented to each his proposition. Time was when anything Marsh suggested was carried out from motives of policy. In the present Instance he found *1911 ing auditors, interested and sympa thetic, "It's about a Christmas present for I Miss Revere," said Marsh. "I nn derstand she is a pr~oflcient musician, and there isn't a piano in the place. She has been royally good to all of our children, little Madeline among them. nl head the subscription .list." "And who'll pick out the instru ment?" one of the town committee men asked. "Oh, I'll go to the city and attend to that. You can trust me, boys," answered Marsh readily. "I was something of a player myself years ago. Now then, this is to be a sebret until Ehristmas." That was agreed upon. Also it was arranged so that on Christmas Eve the scholars gave a concert in honor of their devoted teacher. The piano had been smuggled into the home at dusk while she was at the schoolhouse. She came home alone, as it was planned that she should. She noticed a light in the house as she neared if. As she titted the key to th'e door a stream of pretty music met her ear. Thq next moment she stood at the parlor threshold. There at the piano sat Judson Marsh. He was softly playing "Love's Old Sweet Song." Gladys poted a wreath on the piano holding a card board dise reading: "IMerry Christmas-A token of* love, from the people of Cedar Grove." "O ! - it.

I n.) llElUE was a past Christmas eve that stood out in bold prominence in the mind of Ross Evans, as he lounged In a luxurious chair in his room at the hotel and wove fond. reminiseent, andi then S hopeful anticipatory drceamns. Evans was a successful cir cus uain, but not of the ring type. With In two years he had won the envious distinction of being a leader In his line as advance agent and advertising 1l) n1. The shows were off of the road for the winter senson now, and a few days before ('hristmnns there came a great longing to the wanalereir to see the old friends at home. TIhere was M1rs. Alice Dalrymple, whose husband had been the best friend Evans ever had. There was her house full of lit tle children anti Ivy Clary's peerless blenauty and grace, who had come into Its life as a winning spirit of gentle- I tress. It was because of his remembrance of his last Christmas eve In Weston that he tltuight of her now. How fer vently be recalled the merry hours with the brood of little Dalrymples, and one incident that had tinged his whole career, when he and Ivy were alone trimming the Christmas tree. She wore a rose colored, broad ribbon belt, and he was steadying her on a stool. As she was adjusting some tin sel its perfumed ends swept his face. With an impulse he could not analyze Evans put out one hand, seized the bit of finery -and pressed it to his lips. "Be careful!" he muttered quickly, for Ivy had nearly lost her balance. She had witnessed the fervent gesture of Evans in the mirror. Ahe stepped to the floor, her face crimson, her eyes showing half fright, and breathless with emotion. In intense tones he whispered: "I am thinking of leaving Weston, but if you 'care for me-" and then Mrs. Dalrymple abruptly entered the room and Evans had no further op portunity of seeing Ivy alone. The next day a position with the circus was offered and he gave heed to the call of ambition. His eyes glowed now, and there was a rapt smile on his face as he took up a pencil and filled in a telegraph blank. It was to Mrs. Dalrymple. It read: "Santa Claus will drop in on your dear little ones at eight o'clock Christ mas eve. Have them ready for the surprise of their lives. I hope that pretty 'cousin of yours is still with you." I "It can't offend her," reflected Evans. "It may remind. Dear girl! the big success I have made shrinks very small when I think of her precious worth," and Evans arose to greet the man who had cbarg6 bf tht show's winter quarters, '"ye followed your orders, ;tr. Evans," he said. 'the reindeers are in excellent shape. I've trimmed them up as you suggested. The wardrobe has a Santa Claus outfit so you're all right." "Good I" nodded Evans briskly. "PIl have to start for Weston early, but people will suppose I am giving them an advance advertising stunt. Some class to my scheme, eh?' "You are always original," comment ed the old circus man. One of the favorite "stunts" of Ross Evans had bee'n to make his advance route with the high single-seated buggy and a pair of the circus rein deers. Be was proud of his team. It was a 20-mile drive to Weston. Late in the afternoon, arrayed in Santa Claus costume, Evans started on his trip. Mrs. Dalrymple had the lit tie ones posted at the windows, and the Christmas tree was lighted. At the sound of sleigh bells she switched on the outside electric light. Into the yard roadway came the most ravishing ly delightful Krlss Krfngle with his wonderful relbdeers bedecked and daz zlIng with gleamning tinsel and holly. It was like a dream, those ensuing two hours. And ivy assisted, and it seemed like a paradise to the wanderer to revel amidst such joyous' triendil. ness.' And when the little ones had gone to bed, as on that other' Christ mas eve, he stood beside Ivy. J aze going to tell you what my heart longed to impart to you just two years ago tonight." he Baid. "Wait," she fluttered. "I can gaess, for I had hoped," and she flitted from the room. It was to return wearing the rose-colored sash. Be knew it was his answer as she hid tr blushing tace.

BALL PLAYED BY PRISONERS Eastern Penitentiaries Have Teams That Put Up Good Exhibitions of the National Game, ,1 Many prisons and penltentiaries have baseball teams composed of inmates, and the national sport has done much to revive the health and spirits of prisoners. These baseball teams are uniformed and play a regular schedule of games, but of necessity these games are always played on the prison home grounds. One of the best known prison teams Is that of Sing Sing. It is known as the Mutual Welfare league team, and last season it won more than 9b per cent of games played with visiting nines. The prison baseball field has a splendidly graded surface, and there are bleachers for spectators. The team plays Saturday. and Sunday after noons. Visiting teams come from New Jersey and Connecticut. The prison team has won from some of the best semi-professional nines in these states. The Eastern penitentiary Ip Philadel. phia has long maintained a baseball team, and has developed many good players. Bachelors are men who have lll sions about wothen.
