Old Mr. Molyneux was Iinmensidy ptouil
of his position as tun county magnate. He
lived in a feudal castle, which lie had bought
cheaply, having taken over at tlio same time
the good will, so to speak, of Its former
owner's social Inflnence and dignity. In
consideration of Ills great wealth, his neigh
bors charitably Ignored the fact that his
father had been a small tradesman, and that
he himself had carried on a lucrative busi
ness In the hardware line for many years,
tin was not a had old Wlow, his vulgarity
being ofanubdned and InntTenslvn kind, and
consequently he was received In the best
connty society. Kut ho aspired to oven
greater distinction, for his pet project was to
marry his only son, Tom, to oim of the Karl
of Laburnum's daughters. Thera seemed
no reason why this auspiotnn event should
nnt come about, lor the Lady Vloreneelooked
kindly upon Master Tom, and his Lordship
had more than once hinted that he would
raisa'no objection. Lord Laburnum was the
lord lieutenant of the county, and an alli
ance with his family meant admission into
tliH most ntistecratla circles.
Unfortunately Master Tom was rather a
scapegrace, and his father preferred to let
him see a llttlo of the world beforo revealing
the high honors that were in store lor htm.
Tim fact was that Tom showed no predlleo
tion whatever for the Lady Florence, and be
wasjnst atthatdemocratlo ago when a youth
is apt to underrate social advantages.
Tho old man hoped that when Tom had
bad his fling ho would begin to awake to the
responsibilities of his position, nnd be ame
nable to reason. Ite knew that Tom was rais
ing arespectablo cropof debts, and that before
loug his paternal assistance would besought.
When the crisis arrived hn intended to
inakn known his wishes, and to tako advan
tage of the lad's embarrassments to imposn
conditions. Meanwhile, ns Tom seemed to
bavi given bis heart a rnvlng commission,
thorn was no apparent danger of his seri
ously compromising his affections.
One, day, however, the young man came
down from town, where hn was ostensibly
studying for tlio liar, and Willi .1 very grave
and determined air announced that ho was
engaged tn bo married. Old Mr. Molynenx
nearly had a.flt of apoplexy on tho spot, and
wheiiTom proceeded to state that the young
lady earned her own living by carrying on
the business of a dressmaker at the West
End his horror nnd indlguation knew no
bounds.
In vain Tom pleaded that Miss Fabian was
a lady by birth -and ednoatlnn, and that the
poverty of her family was her only crime.
Ills father became more aud more furious,
until Tom showed symptoms of flat rebellion.
"Think of your position In the conntyf"
oried old Mr. Molynenx, perceiving this, and
wisely making an effort In control himself.
"I will take it for granted, if yon like, that
the fclrl is an exemplary obaranter. She
may be ladylike and well educated, and all
the rest of It. lint her station Is altogether
Inferior to yours."
"I don't pee that," said Tom, stnbbornly.
"Why, of course. It Is ridiculous," said
tho old gentleman, swelling with setf-im-pnrtanca.
"Her.father, yon say. Is a poor,
out-at-elbows devil of a clerk In theelly."
"I've never noticed his ooat has holes In
It." retorted Tom. "As for his beinga clerk
In the city, so were you once. The only
difference Is that you have been mora fortu
nate than he, and have inado enough money
to retire upon,"
"None of your infernal radical nonsense
here, sir I" cried old Mr. Molynenx, Infuri
ated at this reference to his own origin. "It
would be Just as sensible tn say that you
and I are tlio equals or Lord liituirnnm be
cause Adam was onr ooinmon anoestnr.
What dos it matter if I was nuoo a clerk in
thorltyf I have since attained a puperlor
grade in the foolal scale, and that Is the fact
that must lie laoeu. y marrying m
daughter of a oitv clerk, who earns her liv
ing by dressmaking, you would be making a
misalliance.
"Just as Lady I'lorence would be mirry
ing me," "said Tom, looking wonderfully lu
nnennt.
"Who is talking about Lady Florenne V
said old Mr. Molynenx, taken aback by this
unexpected thrust.
"Nobody only I have an idea you wish
me to marry out of my station." retorted
Tom.
"I Jou't wish yon tn marry at all, sir, not
for many along year I'' cried the old man,
fairly nonplussed.
"What I mean Is, father," said Tom,
doggedly, "that I see no mora harm in mar
rying below one's station to ns your own
terra than in marrying above it. If one is
wrong the other mnst lie."
".Stuff and nonsense, sir) You don't
kuow what you're talklngabont,"exolalmed
Mr. Molynenx. "I don't want to have an
argument with yon. The long and short of
the matter Is that I won't hear of this fool
ish engagement. Therel It Is no use talk
ing. Let there be an end of it, or I shall
havuBoniethlug very unpleasant to say."
The old man lionnced out of the room as
ha spoke, not a little startled and amaied by
his son's tone and attitude. Hitherto Tom
had never ventured to argua with him,
nartly from filial duty and partly from In
herent weakness of character. He began to
fear that the lad possessed unexpected firm.
ness, until he soothed his mind by the re
flection that he had probably been uarefully
coached for the Interview, Tills flusplolon
exnlalued Master Tom'u unaccustomed readi
ness of repartee, wiilon nan made nun ap
pear a dangerous adversary.
llelleved In his mind by the discovery,
old Mr, Molynenx gradually cooled down,
and completely reoovered his self.i'onfldeiice.
IIh easily convinced himself that Tom never
would dare dilnbay I1I111, aud, instead of feel
ing the least apprehensive of the marriage
taking plane, h was only uneasy leal ru
mors of the engagement should reach the
Laburnums.
IIh nrudeiitlv resolved to treat tho matter
as definitely disposed of, and In make no
further allusion to It at all events until
Tom had had time for relleol ion. Judging
from appearances, the lad seemed completely
subdued. He Bpent the next few days
slaughtering pheasants In a dejeoted and
sulky frame nf mlud. His father smiled
within himself and held lila tongue, though
he showed by his manner that he did not
lutenl to be trilled with. When he oonsld
ored that hn might safely speak, ha said one
morning, with assumed oarelasBuesa;
"Well, my hoy, what are, you going to
dot"
"I'm going lo shoot over Bailey's farm,"
replied Tom.
"Nonsense. You kuow what I am refer
ring to," said the old man, turuiug red, "I
am speaking of this idlotio love affair."
"Oh I Well, of course I mutt keep my
word," said Tom, with rluthed cheeks,
"Whatl you haven't written to break It
off?" said Mr. Molyiieux, feigulng surprise.
"No, guv'uor, I haven't," said Turn, "I
hoped you would have softened by this
time."
"Aud I hilluved you would have remem.
bered that your first duty was lo olmy your
father," cried tlidolil man, lieglulngto boll.
"Uo yon ineau to tell m that you still con
template marrying a a dressmaker 1 "
"Hhe has cold liur ImalncHS, father," said
Tom, eagerly. "She might have doue bet
ter had she waited a bit, nut out ot ueter
enoe to your wishes"
"My wishes I" Interrupted Mr. Molyiieux,
angrily. "I don't rare II aho carries on
tweuty builueaies. What I say is that you
shall never marry her with my consent.
That's all,"
"I should bo very sorry io disobey yon,
father, began Tom, gravely, "but"
"Look here, my boy," Interrupted thn old
gentleman, qnlckly, speaking with unnatu
ral oalmnese, "let us understand each other.
I forbid thli foolish engagement, and I order
you lo break It off Instantly. That Is my
bark. Now for my bit?. Yon leave my
liouao wllhln an hour, and nnlessyou inform
mo wllhln tho conrse of n week Hint thn af
fair Is at an end, I slop supplies. If you
persist In marrying tho girl, then, by
Heaven I I will alter my will and leave nvery
farthing I possess lo yonr cousin Ted In
faol, I will mako him iny heir and discard
you altogether."
It Is doubtful whether tlio old man would
havo c.rrlod out this serious threat, for hn
wai fond of his son, and proud nf him In a
way, lint hn looked very determined when
ho uttered It, and Tom was evidently Im
pressed. The lad dropped his eyes before
bis father's Irate glance, nud tho ruddy
color loft his cheeks for An instant,
"You know, Tom," ho added, nollolng
the wholesome olfeet of his words, "you are
entirely dependent upon me, and unless yon
took lo poaching I dou't sen how yon could
possibly earn a crust. Hesldcs, you are up
lo your earB In debt."
"I don't owa mnoh," said Tom, qnlokly,
with a tell-tale blush.
"Yon will find out that you owa a good
deal when yonr creditors learn that I have
made your cousin Ted my heir," said the
old man, enigmatically,
Tom was evldenllv seriously dlsooncarled
by this romark. lie turned on his heel,
muttering something nbont catching the
next train to town, leaving his falhermaster
of the situation. The old roau considered
he had gained a signal viotory, and was
therefore, not the least perlnrbed when his
son started olT to tlie station with ills lug'
gago, In literal accordance with his injunc
tion. Undid not doubt that Master Tom
would see tha folly of his ways; and, euro
enough, two days afterward the young man
reappeared, looking decidedly sheepish, and
tendered his submission. He even brought
a copy of the letter he had written to the
ronng lady, which Mr. Molynenx thought a
little too curt and matter of fact, if an
fault was tn be found with It. However, he
was not Inclined lo bn hypercritical In this
respect, and ho heartily applauded Tom's
action.
"I'm going away for a bit, guv'nnr," said
the lad, who had winced a little at his
father's boisterous good humor, and seemed
half ashamed of his conduct. "Websterand
soma other fellows have hired a yacht, and
sail for Madeira to-morrow."
"By all means, my boy," cried Mr. Moly
nenx, secretly delighted that his son should
leave England for a while at this Jnnctnre :
"and look here, Tom, while you are nway I
will settle matters with these friends or
yours."
He produced rather a formidable lint of
names and figures as he spoke, and Tom
started with surprise, as well be might, at
perceiving how full and accurate was lib
father's kuowledge nf his pecuniary embar
rassments. The old man cut short tils sou's
confused protestation of gratitude aud apology
by saying good hnmoredly :
"Well, well, yon iniiBt turn over a new
leaf, my boy. Reasonable economy must
henceforth be the order of tho day, and I
hope, on yonr retnrn, that yon will settle
down and reside permanently in the coun
try." He had it on the tip of his tongue to bint
that he mnst bn prepared to marry Lady
Florence, lint he wisely refrained. Never
thele's, hn was as full nf tho projeot as over,
and after Tom's departure he spoke to Lord
Laburnum mora plainly than lie had hith
erto done. His Lordship, without pledging
himself, cava him an encouraging reply,
and hn resolved to bring matters to a crisis
immediately upon his son's return. Thn
consequence was that tho task nf settling
with Tom's creditors proved quite an agree
able relaxation, and did not cause him a mo.
inetit's Ill-humor.
lint he was very much startled and dis
gusted 011 hearing that his solicitor bad been
asked to accept service of .1 writ on Tom's
behalf in action for damages for a breach of
promise of marriage brought liy Miss Fabian
against her faithless lover. Tho news upset
him considerably, for suoh n soan.lal would
set all the papers gossiping about his ante
cedent', white Tom could hardly fail to cnta
ridlcnlou.1 figure in tha witness-box. Old
Mr. Molyiieux soon arrived at the conoluslon
that thn action must be compromised at any
cost, for the sake of bis own dignity, not to
mention the projected alliance with the La
burnums. He rushed up town in quite a
frantlo state, and, disregarding the advice
and protestations of his solicitor. Insisted
that Miss Fabian's claim should be settled
forthwith at any sacrifice. In order to avert
the danger of the affair finding its way Into
thn papers.
Hn was successful in his main object; but,
rich man as he was, he almost groaned whim
be Bat down to write thn check that Miss Fa
bian's, advisers demanded. The amount was
represented by uo less than five figures, and
the worst nf it was that ha got nq sympathy
wlratever from his Bolloitor, who declared
that by going to trial, or even by holding
nnt, hn might have saved the greater part of
the money.
In spite of bis great relief that the threat
ened scandal had bean averted, old Mr.
Molynenx soon began to regret the sacrifice
he had made, and to fret about his enormous
loss. He was uot by any means a penurious
man, but, like all parvenus, he keenly ap
preciated Ilia value nf money. He did not
mind what he spent so long as hn had some
thing to show for his outlay, but in this In
stance tlio resnlt attained was entirely nega
tive, Every one is Inclined to underrate a
danger when It has passed, and Mr. Moly
nenx conld not help suspeoting that hn had
been loo easily frightened. Tills uncomfor
table reflection worried him a good deal,
particularly wheu ha learned that Lord
Laburnum had made arrangements tn take
his family to the south of France for the
wluter. This did not look as if his Lordship
,was very anxious about ins dangliter's mar
riage with Tom, and old Mr. Molynenx was
soiled with an ominous foreboding whon he
heard I lie news.
Tom returned after an absence of three or
four months, and was evidently not a little
apprehensive nf the reception he would meet
with. He had received some angry letters
from his father, referring to the damages hd
had to pay, and he therefore appeared ner
vous and embarrassed at their first meeting.
But the old man, delighted at seeing him
again, sought to put him at his ease by say
ing :
"I'm not going to allude to what has hap
pened, my hoy; I'm willing to let by-goues
be by-gones."
"You are very good, father, lint tint "
"What Is thn matter f" inquired old Mr.
Molyneux, aa Tom paused in confusion.
"I still cling to tho hope that von will
consent to my marriage wth Miss Fabian,"
said Tom, desperately.
"What!" roared his father, will) a great
'start.
"You ilea, guv'uor," proceeded Tom,
"I'm lu a inuuti butter position than I was
before I went away. Then, an yon Justly
pointed out, I was in debt, I had no oapital,
anrl I was altogether dependent upon you.
But my debts are now paid, and as for
oapital "
"Well, sir, what about capital t" Inter
rupted the old man, too much amazed to he
augry.
"There Is the money you paid tn Miss
Fabian," said Tom, with a fleeting smile,
"Thn Interest on t wnqbl keep ns from
starving, aud at leas,tlt Is xtfoqfrli to liiy anl
stock a farm wll.''
"Hut but I paid tho money because you
broke yonr promise to marry her," urged
his father, Incredulously. "She would
never marry you now,"
"I think slid woubl," replied Tom, in a
confident tone.
"Thn fact Is, sir, that ) have bee) vfqtin.
l2si,"exolalmed old tr. lqlyuey, and
deulv, as the truth Mashed across his mlud.
"Not nxaolly, father at least, not yet,"
returned Tom, with great earnestness, "I
hope you will not withhold your cousent to
our marriage. If you oonseut, the money
shall be paid back to yon every farthing.
I dou't wish to defy yot), aa It were; and
both of ns are willing to rely entirely, with
regard to the future, upon your generosity."
Otd Mr. Molyueux had turned ptrplu lu
the face, aud Tan) was Justly alarmed at his
aspeot. Bnt liefore he could utter a word
lu reply a man servant brought in a note, re
marking that a luisseuger was walling to
kuow if there was auy reply.
Mr. Molyueux npeued tha envelope half
absently, glanced hurriedly at the contents,
aud tlmu gave veut to a muttered exeoratlau
which appareutly relieved his overwrought
feelings, After striding about the room for
a few moments lu great agitation he sud
denly halted lu froutof Tom, aud cried lu a
voice of suppressed passion 1
"You you Inipertiuent.dUreipertfiil, dis
obedient rascal I What did you say about
themouey t"
"I said every farthing would be returned
to you," replied Tom, Htaring at his father,
"Very well," said Hie old mail, abruptly;
and lie Immediately sat dowu at the writing
table and wrote a note with a tremulous,
hand. "Head that," he aald to his sou
wheu he had finished,
Tom, In his turu amazed and bewil lered,
read as follows:
that yon havo other views with regard to yonr
ilinghtfT riorence, I ought, perhaps, 10 havo men.

A man bad robbed n. coach running be
tween Stooklon and 8onora, concealed the
money, all he could carry, about his person,
sought lodgings not far away, and In the
night hint risen, stolen n horse, ana sirncK
a bee lino across tha country toward a sta
tlon where ho could get nntck transporta
tion to San Francisco, intending to start for
home by Bteatner. He belonged to Arkan
sas. In the morning thn hnrsn and rider
were missed, A party started In pnrsnlt,
and in Iwonly-fonrhonrahad hlshorso broken
down and him corraled. Hn saw his game
was up, nud coolly waited the result. The
party overhauled him at early dawn J
'Good mornln', stranger."
"flood mornln'."
"Sean anything of a man about your size
straddlo of a sorrel maro lookln a heap like
thn nue von ride i '
"No. i haven't."
"That's a pretty good mare 0' yourn."
"Yes, aim was worth a cool $!)00, bnt she
Is allttln winded now; nay, mister, I'll give
you sVlOO clean boot for that ono o' yonrn
and stop the ileal."
He was making a good htulT, and although
he know that he was reongnlznl, his offer
would well pay for thn broken-down horse,
and he hoped that bis money would save
htm. Ho counted without his host.
"That's a straight blind 0' yourn, pard,
and it Btrains us to come In. but we're thar
aud hold you over. Yon look a little played
out as well as thn mare. If you'll Jest git
down and Join our little party It'll stretch
yonr leg', and mebbo you need stretchln'
all over."
He blanched a trifle, but obeyed In dog
ged silence. The pursuers all dismounted,
and the spokesman, approaching, threw over
his head a uoose, and, passing the other end
nf the rope over a limb of a tree that over
shadowed them, called the othor members
of the parly around him.
The culprit stood orect; not a muscle
quivered.
"Now, pard, is everything all right t Roos
It fit your neckaoco.-dln' to Hoylo f"
"All right."
"Have ye got anything to sav why this
little plonlo shouldn't proceed f"
"Nothln'."
"Have yn got any word to leave to yer
friends ? If yer have make it ehort, for
wo've got ter break camp inside er ten min
utes." Then thn strauger lifted his eyes from the
ground for the first timn and looked his
self-appointed Judge and executioner steadily
In thn oyu for a moment; then, drawiug
rrom his pocket a crumpled letter, spoke
with a slight tremor of voice:
"Perhaps you are a better scholar than
the. If you'll Just read that, and be kind
enough to answer it, I'll tell yon what to
say."
The executioner had already passed the
coll of rope to his comrades aud they had
drawn it taut. He Inok the letter, and, as
the party stood around him ready tn mu lip
thn culprit at the first signal, he opened it
aud read alond:
11 . Ark.. .Ian. 10. is-.
My Iikau KonJamri: For long, weary months I
have waited for news from you since your lost kind
letter to your old mother. God bless you, .lames,
and answer my prayer that this letter may reach
you, thanking you for your over-thoughtful cere of
tno in my old nge. I received the money, nnd It has
kept me from Roro need. Itnt once more to look
Into your face and feel that you wero near me would
cheer my old heart more than to possess all tho gold
In California. When arc you coming hornet You
promised ma In the spring yon would come hack to
me. Mav (lod nrosner vou and return inv dear bov
to my anna before I die. From you loving mother.
He began thn letter in a strong, clear
voice, bnt before tha closing words his
reading was hardly audible, and tears stood
in the eyes of the rough, strong men who
listened breathless tn its contents. Thoropn
slackened until it dropped from the hands
of his comrades, and aa the breath of morn
ing rustled the leaves of the trees above
them and Ood's sunlight shimmered down
through the opening boughs, meltiug their
hearts tn pity, the thoughts of eaoh ware
busy bringing memories of their own boy
hood days and a mother's loving prayers.
Silence for a few minutes; then, reverently
folding the soiled bit of paper, the reader
passed It to Its owner, aud, without a word,
slipped the noose from his ueck. In toues
as gentle as a mother's be asked: "Was you
going home, stranger f"
"Yes.'
"dood-bve."
The stranger dared not trust his voice In
thanks, but drew from his belt a small
bag of twenties, nud offered it to the
leader.
"Hoss."
"No, no; take her, and good-byn."
He mounted the mare and slowly moved
away, while the party watched him out of
sight, then turned and silently retraoed
their steps to camp. The court was ad
journed. In J mica.

AMAZING SURGICAL. CASE.
A Iteinarhnblo Operation and Curlone
KonnH-Tnklne Ont a Necro'ii Horn elm.
Nuw Yomc, Nov. 0. A furiously delirious negro
died In Mount Sinai Hospital. That Institution la a
.Icwlnh charity, hut Its benefactions know no color
lino. Tho black roan had fornovoral days prior to
death almost constantly Insisted that only his skin
nnd honeH remained, and that all the rest of him had
long beforo been taken away to bo hurled. It was a
curious hallucination, and yet notaltogcthcr unrea
sonable. Ilia wild belief was based on something
rnmarlrnl,tA-tint!ilnfr lORfl ItlM! One Of tllOSO WOOdCr-
ful surgical operations that aro nowadays under
taken tn desperate cases. Tho doctors of Mount
stnal had taken out his Intestines, put them Into an
artlrJclal abdomen made out or a rubber shirt and
some hot towels, and left them there until througn
with Investigating, cutting, and sewing, when they
turned htm inside In and oatslde out again. Ills
trouhlo was a tamor on oneot tho arteries. Dr.
William v. Kluhrer, visiting surgeon to MonntSlnal
and llcllevuo Hospital, who performed the opera
tion, had the man prepared for It by giving him n
thorough scrubbing with a weak solution ot carbolic
0.1.1 a rinr nii.tinvilin nntlpnt tinder the Influence
of ether the surgeon made an incision extending
six Inches downward along tho middle line of the
body. Asncetortnisruuuer was piaccu over mu
abdomen, a silt cat into It from one side, and the
small Intestines were all drawn from the abdomen
through the silt and bonched upon tho sheet, which
was then quickly folded over them, holding them
as If In a bag. To keep thera warm they were cov
ered with towlcs out ot a warm solution of car-
lwiltn nrtil.
A ligature of flno Bilk thread bad been prepared
by bolting It two hours In carbolic acid, and then
soaking It during tho operations In a weak solution
ot tho acid, with two pairs of forceps tho opera
