Grlawold wns nwnro tlmt Mlsa Os-
horno'fl Interest In Ardmoro cooled
perceptibly.
"Oh!" alio Bnld. with that delight-
ful Intonation with which n woman
utterly extinguishes n Bister.
"I shouldn't hnvo told you that"
nld Grlawold guiltily nwnro of falling
temperature. "Ho In cnpnblo of fol-
lowing n winking oyo nt n perfectly
respectful dlatnnco for n hundred
yearn nnd of being entertnlned nil

"It seems vory unusual" said Har-
barn with cold Duality.
OrlBwold remembered this tall as
tho next dny aboard tho train bound
for Turner Court House tho seat of
Mingo county South Carolina ho pon-
dered a tolcgrnm ho had received
from Ardmoro. Ho read nnd re-rend
this messngo chowlng cigars and
scowling at tho landscape and tho
causo of his perturbation of spirit
may bo roughly summarized In thoao
words:
On leaving tho executive mnnsion
tho night before ha had studied maps
in his room at tho Saluda house and
carefully planned his campaign. Ho
had talked by tolephono with tho
prosecuting nttornoy of Mingo coun-'
ty and found that otllclal politely ro-
eponslve. So much hnd gone well.
Than tho Juxtaposition of Ardmoro'H
estate to tho border and tho posslblo
uso of tho house ns headquarters
struck In upon him. Ho would nfter
nil genorously tnko Ardmoro Into tho
game nnd thoy would uphold the
honor and dignity of tho groat com-
monwonlth of South Cnrollnti togeth-
er. Tho koys of nil Ardmoro's
housos wore bo to sponk In Oris-
wold's pocket and Invitations woro
unnecessary betwoon them; yet at At-
lantn Ardmoro had tnado n point of
nBklng Grlswold down to help whllo
nway tho tedium of Mrs. Atchison's
house jwrty nnd ns n matter of form
GrUwold wired from Columbia nd-
vlslng Ardmoro of his unexpected do-
scont. Kvon In case Ardmoro should still
bo abroad In pursuit of tho winking
oyo the doors of the huge house
would be open to Grlswold who hnd
entered there so often a the owner's
familiar friend. These things ho
pondorod deoply as he rond nnd re-
read Ardmoro's roply to his messngo
a reply which was plainly enough
datod at Ardsley but which ho could
not know had really been wrltton In
caboose 01S6 as it lay on a siding in
tho southeastern yards nt Hnlolgh
nnd thenco dispatched to the manager
nt Ardsley with Institutions to for-
ward It ns a new message to Grla-
wold nt Columbia. The chilling words
thus flung nt him woro:
Prof. Henry Maine Orlswold
Saluda House Columbia S. C. :
I am very sorry old man but I can not
take you Iti Just now. Hcarlet fover la
epidemic anion; my tenants and I could
not think of exposing you to danger. As
soon us the nccursod plague passe I
want to have you down.
An epidemic that closed tho gates
of Ardsley would assume tho propor-
tions of u national disaster; for even
If tho great house lUolf were quar-
antined there wero lodges and bunja-
lows scattered over the domain where !
a host of guests could bo cntortalned
In comfort. Grlswold reflected that
tho very fact that ho had wired from
Columbia must havo intimated to Ard-
moro that his friend was (lying to-
ward him pursuant to tho Atlanta In-
vitation. Grlswold dismissed a thou-
sand speculations an unworthy. Ard-
moro hud nover shown tho romotest
troco of snobbishness nnd ns far as
tho threatened houso party wan con-
cerned Grlswold know Mrs. Atchison
vory woll nnd hnd boon cntortalned at
her Now York houio.
The patronizing tono of tho thing
canned Grlswold to Hush at ovary
reading. If tho Ardsley dato line hnd
not beon so plainly written; If tho
phraseology were not so clmncterls-
tlo thoro might be room for doubt;
but Ardmors Ardmore of all men
hnd slapped him In the face!
Hut scarlet fever or no scarlet
fover. tho pursuit of Applewolght had
precedence of private grievances. Hy
the time ho ronched Turner Court
House Grlswold had dismissed tlio
ungraclousneaH of Ardmore and bin
Jaws woro set with n determination
to perform tho mission Intrusted to
hlirt by llarbara Osborno nnd to wait
until later for nn accounting with his
uunccountablo friend.
Arrlvod nt Tumors Grlswold
strode nt onco tnwnrd tho courthouse.
Tho contomputuous rojectlon of his
message by tho sheriff of Mingo hnd
angered Grlswold but ho wna destined
to feol even moro poignant Insolcnco
whon entering tho shorirt'a office a
deputy languidly posed as a letter
"V" In n nwlvolchnlr with his feet
nn tlio mantel took a cob pipe from
his mouth nnd lazily answered Grls-
wold'a linportunnto query with:
"Tho sheriff nln't hyeh sell. He's
a-vlsltlu' bin folks In Tennossy."
"When will ho bo bnck?" demnnded
Grlswold hot of heart but maintain-
ing tho Icy tono that had made him
so formidable In cross-examination.
"I reckon I don't know Boh."
"Do you know your own namoT"
perBlBtcd Grlswold awcctly.
"Go to hell sell" replied tho deputy.
Ho reached for n match relighted his
pipe nnd carefully crossed his foot on
the mantelshelf Tho moment Grls-
wold'n Bteps died nwny In tho outer
corridor the deputy rose nnd busied
hlniRi'lf so Industriously with tho tele-
phone that within nn hour nil through
Pondered a Telegram He had Re-
ceived. tho Mingo hills nnd oven boyond tho
state lino nlong lonely trails ncross
hills nnd through valleys nnd besldo
cheery creeks nnd brooks It wns
known Hint n strango man from Co-
lumbia was in Mingo county looking
for tho sheriff and Applowolght. alias
I'oteet nnd hla men woro ovorywhoro
on guard.
Grlawold liked the prosecuting nt-
tornoy on Bight. Ills nnmo wns I labor-
sham nnd ho was n youngster with n
clear and Btondy gray oyo. Instead of
tho southern statesman's flowing
I'rlnco Albert ho woro a sack-coat of
gray Jeans nnd wnB othorwlso distin-
guished by a shirt of white nnd blue
check. Ho grinned ns Grlswold bent
a puzzled look upon him.
"I took your courses nt thu uni-
versity two years ago professor nnd I
romombor distinctly that yon always
woro a red cravat to your Wednes-
day's lectures."
"You havo done woll " replied Grla-
wold "for I novor expec J to And an
old student who romomborod half as
much of mo ns that. Now ns I un-
derstood you ovor the tolephono Ap-
pleweight wns Indicted for stealing a
ham In this county by tho last grand
Jury but tho sheriff has failed or re-
fused to make tho nrrost. How did
tho grand Jury como to Indict if this
outlaw dominates all tho hill coun-
try?" "The grand Jury wanted to mnko n
showing of virtue nnd It wnu of
course understood between tho fo Io-
nian tho londor of the gang and tho
shorlff that no wnrrnut could be
sorved on Applowolght. I did my
duty; tho grund Jury's net wns ox-
omplnry; and thoro tho wheols of Jus-
tice nro blocked. Tho same thing Is
practically true ncross tho state Hue
In Dllwoll county. North Cnrollnn.
Those mon led by Applowolght uso

try to eludo pursuers whon nt times
tho rovenuo men undortnko n raid
nnd the county authorities havo novor
soriously molested them. Now and
then ono of thoso sheriffs will mnko a
feint of going out to look for Apple-
weight but you mny bo suro that duo
notlco Is given boforo ho starts. Throo
rovonuo ofllcora havo lately beon klllod
whllo looking for thoso men. nnd the
government Is llkoly to tnko vigorous
action boforo long."
"Wo may ns well bo frank" said
Grlswold in his most professional
volco. "I don't want the fcdoral au-
thorities to take thcRO men; it Is Im-
portant that thoy should not do sa
Tb.li Is an affair between the torcra-
ors of the two Carollnns. It has been
said that neither of them dares press
tho mattor of arrest but I am hero In
Gov. Osborno'n behalf to glvo tho Ho
to that Imputation. Gov. OBhorno has
benn viciously maligned. Suppose nil
theso peoplo woro arrostod In Mlnga
county under ihoso Indictments what
would be tlio result tiJal nnd acquit-
tal?" "Just that In splto of any effort
mado to convict thorn."
"Well Gov. Osborno Is tired of this
business nnd wants tho Applowolght
scandal disposed of onco and for nil."
"Thnt's strango" remarked Hnber-
sham clearly surprised nt Grlswold'
vigorous tone. "I called on tho gov-
ornor in his ofllco nt Columbia only
ten days ago nnd ho put mo off. He
snld ho hnd to propnro nn nddross to '
deliver beforo tho South Cnrollnn
I'olltlcal Reform Association and he
couldn't tako up tho Applowelght
caso; nnd I called on Dosworth tho
nttorney general nnd ho grow furious i
ly angry nnd said I wns guilty of tho
grnvost mnlfpasanco in not hnvlng
brought those men to book long ago.
Whon I suggested that he connive I
with tho govornor townrd removing l
our shorlff ho declnred that tho gov
ornor wns a cownrd. Ho seemed nnx. i
loua to rut tho governor In n hole
though vhv ho should tnko that nttl-
tilde I en 1 1 mnko out ns It has been
gonornlly understood that Gov. Os-
borne's personnl friendliness for him
aecured his nomination and election
to tho nttornoy generalship and I
hnvo henrd that he la engaged to tho
governor's oldest dnughter."
"Ho's n contemptlblo hound" re
plied Grlawold with fooling "nnd at
the propor tlmo wo shnll deal With
him; but It Is of more Importnnco Just
now to mako Applowolght n prisoner
In North Carolina. If bo's arrested
ovor there that lets us out; nnd If the
North Carolina authorities won't ar-
rest their own criminals we'll go over
In Dllwoll county und show them how
to bo good. Tho man's got to be
locked up nnd ho'd look much better
In n North Carolina Jail under all the
circumstances."
"Thnt's good In theory but how do
you Justify It In law?"
"Oh that's tlio merest matter of
formulno! My dear Haborsham all
tho usunl processes of law go down
boforo omorgonclos!"
Tlio nlrlnoss of Grlswold's tone
cnused tlio prosecutor to laugh for
this was not tho sobor assoclnto pro-
fessor of admiralty whoso Iccturos ho
had sat under at tho Unlvorslty of
Vlrglnln but a different person whose
new attltudo toward tho law and Its
enforcement shocked him Immeasur-
ably. "Well ns I told you over tho tele-
phone wo honr n grcnt deal nbout Ap-
plowolght nnd Ilia crowd but we
nover hear much of tholr enemies
who aro nevertheless of tho snmo

boasts Hint ho novor misses church on
Sunday. Ho goes also to tho mid-

I havo lenrncd nnd thereby hangs our
opportunity. Mount Ncbo church lies
off hero townrd tho north. It's a Iono-

A Strange "God Tree."
What Is a god treo? Nobody knows
or hnd ovor hoard of such a thing un-
til not long ago an ethnological ex-
plorer enmo ncross qulto n lot of thorn
on certain llttlo known Islands along
the wost const of Sumatra.
The god tree Is enrved out of wood
with curiously fashioned branchos of
tho snmo material. On thoso branches
Rro hung strings of bright colored bits
of cloth and tiny baskets tilled with
grains of rico. Tho wholo affair Is
not more than three feot high.
According to tho bollof of tho na-
tives of tho Islands aforesaid a god
Uvea In the tree. Ho Is not a partic-
ularly good sort of divinity and. if ho
tnkes a notion to leave the troo ho Is
liable to do folks r. mlschlof. The
boat way to persuade him to stay nt
home In the treo Is to mnko tho latter
attractive by adorning It in tho man-
ner deecrlbod nnd by supplying rice
In basket for tho god to ont.
The god Is n household god nnd tho
tree which ho Inhabits Is kept In a
corner of tho family dwelling.

Suggestion and Practical Thought.
This Is ono of tho most beautiful and
touching of tho pnrublus. I'ootry
painting and thu drama have combined
to give It an exceptional hold on tho
Christian Imagination. Tho weird
pathos of tho story Is unspeakable.
Tho occasion Is so huppy tho ngentu
so Interesting the Isbuo bo tragic. Tho
story is n plcturo of an oriental wed-
ding. Among thoso friends of the brldo
who waltod to Join the procession wero
ton virgins. Whllo thoy wore waiting
tho tlmo of tho procession being ever
unknown they becamo drowsy and
slept in peace knowing that tho shouts
nnd cries of tho coming crowd would
awnkon them In tlmo. They had no
anxiety; the wise hecauso they hnd
faith nnd woro prepared; tho foolish.
by falso security and by Ignoring tho
futuro.
Tho ten virgins had to wait till nbout
midnight whon through tho still nlr
camo shrill and clear "thoso peculiar
shrill quavering cries of Joy called
Zugaret which aro heard throughout
tho east on occasions of special re-
joicing. (Seo Hov. 19:0.9.)" And they
heard the cry: Iiehold tho bridegroom
conioth; go yo out to moot him.
Tho wise virgins trimmed and re-
plenished their lamps with tho oil
which they hnd tho forethought to
bring with thorn.
Tho foolish found their lamps burned
out but thoy had been too careloss
to bring extra oil with them. Thoy
begged oil of the wise but they had
none left; nnd advised tho foolish to
go to tho sourco of supply whero they
should havo gono earlior. While they
wero gono tho procession reached its
destination; thoso who woro ready
wont In to tho marrlago festival. And
tho door wns shut. Llko lCanu tho
foolish virgins camo too lato for tho
blessing. They had thrown away their
opportunity.
Tho Lord was soon to depart by tho
way of tho cross. Hut ho promised to
return. Ho camo back In tho resur-
rection. Ho enmo In tho coming of
tho Spirit of tho day of Pentecost. Ho
camo at tho destruction of Jerusalem.
Ho Is coming In glory at tho last dny
when his kingdom shall como and bin
will ho done on earth as It is In heav-
en. Evory crisis of our lives every open-
ing of opportunity every crisis of tho
world or tho church mny ho called in
Its degrco a comlns of tho Lord whoso
provldenco Is over all. (1) Tho com-
ing Is something of tho greatest value
nnd blessing. It Is like tho wedding
fostivnl full of tho host of llfo. Even
In tho subordinate comings and crises
of our lives thero to always a door an
Invitation to something hotter than
wo havo had. Even death is a gato to
heaven. (2) Tho tlmo of tho coming
Is always unknown for yo know neith-
er tho day nor tho hour wherein tho
Son of man comoth.
In What Way Aro Wo to Watch?
Tho company of watchers was divided
Into two classes tho wise and tho
foolish. Tho equality of numbers has
no bearing on tho proportion of por-
sons in real llfo who aro wlso or
foolish.
Tho lamps signify tho outward pro-
fession and tho possibilities. All had
somo light they had rollglous feelings
they wero moved by tho Influences of
tho Holy Spirit.
Tho oil Is tho spiritual llfo tho
heart which la tho sourco of tho flame
tho visible manifestations of the
Christian spirit. "Hut this significance
was shown only by tho burning lamp.
Those who took vessels of oil a per-
manent supply wero thoso who had
tho living reality of that which thoy
professed who put Into practise Into
character tluit which shono forth from
their lamps.
Thoso who took no supply of oil
had a surface foaling llko the seed
Bown on rocky soil which sprang up
quickly and endured till persecution or
troublo arose (Matt. 16:0 G 20 21).
Watchfulness consists In bolng pre-
pared for evory emorgoncy nnd every
duty aa tho wlso virgins wntchod by
having their Inmps continually burn-
ing and a full supply of oil to keep
thorn burning.
And the Door Wns Shut. Tho oppor-
tunity cnni'i nnd tho gift In Its hand
was ;alnod or lost. Thoro camo a
tlmo whon It was too late tq change.
This Is n fact of nnturo ns woll ni a
truth of the Word. Thoro Is a ten-
dency to fix tho character so that one
will ot change. In tho ralssuso of
tho body thoro cornea a tlmo when it Is
laipoaslbto to ward off dlscaso. Wo

(Copyright 1910 by Joseph 11. Tlowles )
When I wna a boy I had a hard
time. My people woro poor nnd I was
lurky to have ono shoo and ono rubber
hoot. I stnrtcd to work In tho initios
around Coxvlllo Ind. nbout tho tlmu
other kids aro stnrtlng to klndorgni-
tun. Just when 1 began playing ball I
rnn't romombor. It must hnvo been
when I wna a kid r. von or eight yunra
old nnd I nlwnys lav d tho gamy nnd
played It ovory ctnuco I got Vrctty
soon when 1 wnt about fourteen
I began to get real wages In the mine.
I beenmo checker hlrod b tho union
to check the coal Hint enme up
nnd keep the nccountn of tho men.
Tho only tlmo I hnd for base-
ball was Saturday and Sunday
afternoons. Thoro woro seven
small towns nearby nml wo nil hnd
tenma. I have walked tlmo nnd again
eight to ten miles and back to play
games. I was n catcher and third
baseman on tho team nnd showed so
much skill nt tho game that pretty
soon tho minora would hire n mnn In
my placo to check tho coal In order to
let mo go away nnd piny ball to win
for tho team.
I did not llko tho miner's llfo. It
did not seem to got a fellow any plnco
and I saw men grow old and worn out
and scarcoly savo enough to bury
them. It looked to mo as If t ought
to cultlvato my ability to play ball
nnd I set to work In earnest. I read
In a paper that pitchers were tho best
paid players and decided to pitch al-
though I never hnd tried it before. I
pitched thrco gamos for Coxvlllo ono
fall nnd tho next spring I waB boosted
for a Job with tho Tcrre Hatito club
I reported to tho team a great big kid.
I never had mado a cent out of baso-
ball In fact tho only money I ovor
had mado outside of mining was In
acting as protector for a fat boy. His
mother paid mo fifty cents a week to
keep tho other kids from licking him
"Miner" Brown.
and I was so anxious to earn that fifty
cents that if no kid mado n move at
him I licked a couple anyhow to earn
my money.
Tho spring 1 went to Tcrrc Haute
they hod oloven pitchers for trial and
I never had pitched but three games.
I was determined to mako good nnd
the only way I knew how was to work
my head off.
I novor worked harder In the mines
than I did there. I pitched every min-
ute nnd watched tho older pitchers
work learning from thorn. Also I
stnrtcd to read and study and worked
harder than over. Finally Omaha got
me and I began to bo n real pitcher.
1 alwnys wanted to mako good for the
sake of the boys in tho mines who had
btuck with mo nil the wny and I al-
most broke records at Omaha for num-
ber of games pitched. I worked so
hard I hurt my arm nnd when St.
Louis got me 1 thought I was going
back to tho mln'cs. I worked tho arm
around Into shape and whon I got to
Chicago it was right
Everything I ever havo accom-
plished has been duo to hnrd work
nnd little olso I havo a great lovo
for baseball and like to play tho
gnmo. I renllze 1 owo a lot to It and
I want to show It by working all I cnn.
It ban given mo a chanco to moot peo-
plo nnd to develop Into somothlng I
think tho gnmo Is a good profession
an honornble one nnd one any boy can
enter providing ho ontora It with tho
determination to work and win his
way. No loafer or "Joy playor" over
will succeed.
