For a week now the tramp hud
been llRhtiiiK lire with the other llro-
fighters. Why he had done so he
hardly knew. The pay was not
large and the risk was. lie had been
almost cornered again and again. At
times escape had seemed Impossible
but he had raced hla way to safety
while bis blistered feet and smoke-
clogged lungs protested. Hut he had
always wont out. Now he had dis-
tanced the lire once again and lay
stretched In the shade genuinely
weary sincerely sick of it all.
"Let the owners light." he said half
aloud. "Later on they'll run me out
from the shade of the very trees I
help to save. 1 ain't goln' back."
The resolution had come suddenly.
He. had fully intended to return after
snatching an hour or so of well-
earned rest.
It was In the enrly forenoon that
he had laid down. It seemed hours
before his tired eyes closed and but
a moment before he was rudely awak-
ened. Men were pulling at him;
men were shouting In his ear. The
words at last penetrated drowBlly
Into his mind
"Cet up Mill. Oet up for God's sake.
It's comin' this way."
He sat up at last sulkily and hall
awake. "I don't give a"
The fares of the men were black-
ened and bb edlng.
"Jenks an" Hert's lost." said one.
"Well I didn't find em" said I h
tramp.
"God find them:" s:ild the other
reverently. "They've burned to
death."
He heard Hie news callously. Thers
had been so many that the shock was
quite gone from the tale. It was only
when enacted before the eye In all
its grewsonie details that it had pow-
er even partially to shock.
He settled back again. "I ain't goln'
to get up."
The others stood ready to go. The
man half turned but paused. "Mill'
once more will yo come? It's hittln'
now for a place where there's little
children -little children mlpd ye with-
out nny Idee what danger means."
Mill raised his lank figure till lis
stood an inch above the others. "I'll
come" he said.
Mackward now they turned with the
iiuick step of men who knew that
time meiuit life. All trace of listless-
ness had vanished from Mill's face and
figure. He was the alert fire-fighter
untiring unafraid.
All day they fought each with the
courage and the strength of ten. It
was night before they acknowledged
that their efforts had been without
avail.
Mill threw down his ax and pointed
Jiis lean finger. "Home one ought tc
tell 'em" he said. And then as no
one spoke "I'll go."
It was trackless way through the
forest and thick underbrush but Mill
raced on hurried by the roaring of
the fire handicapped by his weari-
ness harried by the fear that he might
not be In time.
The people of the village were
awake clustered around in groups
watching the light that hung like a
menace in the sky. There were no
men among them. Tho men were
away battling with the danger that
threatened their homes. So it fell to
Mill to prepare and urge forward the
hurried flight. It was he who remem-
bered everything meat and drink
warm clothes for tho wide-eyed chil-
dren lie harnessed and made ready.
"Throw out everything if you ain't
makin' a good get-away" he cau-
tioned then gave the word and the
heavily laden teams moved off.
"You! You! You ain't comin'?"
the women shrilled back to him.
"After a bit. You're loaded enough
I'll bo along 'fore long."
Already the flames were sending
forth their spying sparks. Presently
tho enemy would throw caution to the
winds and advance upon him.
"Any other place could 'a' burned
and been darned 'fore I'd 'a' done it.
P.ut this! I couldn't never forget thut
little shaver as wanted to gl' me Ills
pie all of it. I Jest had' to do it."
And Mill fire-fighter and tramp set-
tled comfortably back with his eyef
on the approaching fire and the
strange smile still shadowing his
mouth with a beauty that would have
made his mother glad.

History of the Gun.
Since the Introduction of gunpowder
as a propeller and the general use of
i firearms In warfare and hunting there
has been a more or less insistent de-
mand for mechanisms that would give
thn soldier or hunter a number of
shots at his command without reload-
ing and enable them to be rapidly dis-
charged. The first patent for a fire-
arm of this description seems to have
been issued by the British patent of-
fice in 1718. to James Puckle a citi-
zen of London for a gun mountf-d
upon a tripod having a single barrel
and a revolving cylinder. Strangely
enough one of the claims set forth in
this patent appears almost verbatim.
120 years later in a patent taken out
I by Rollln White an American invent-
' or of a revolving pistol. Another cu-
I rious claim of the patent was:
"The mechanism permits the use of
! square bullets against the Turk and
round bullets against Christians;
; moreover so great Is the rapidity of
fire that ships armed with the gna
cannot be boarded by an attacking
force." S. .1. Fort in the Outing Mag-
' ezinc.
