THE FREED PRISONER.

"I consiikr it the only hope for him, judge," said the doctor. "It will establish a bad precedent. The prisoners will think all they have to do is to get nick so us to get free," said the judge, testily. "It is but a question of time, and a very short time, too, before a greater judge even than you will give him his discharge, and not only him, but a good many others besides," said the doctor, much provoked. "Eh, is that so?" said the judge, Ignoring sarcasm, "is there really so much sickness in the jail?" "A good deal, and chiefly confined to the United States prisoners. Spotted fever rages with fatal effect among them." "That is strange. How do you account for it? Is illicit distilling an unhealthy occupation?" "When it reaches its natural result of landing the operator into jail, there to sicken, it may be called decidedly unhealthy. But, jesting aside, these mountain fellows suffer more than the other prisoners for the reason that they have always lived a free life In tlie open air therefore the closo confinement of the jail proves -cry irksome and they sicken under it. This spotted fever is, I think, the result of lack of proper circulation of the blood. It is a 6ort of epidemic among the mountaineers. Some of them have died of it and others are very low, and they will die too, if they stay in that jail. The thought of going home is all that will save them now—Jack Bigby, especially release is tho only hope for him." "He has no one to thank but himself," said the judge. "Why did he meddle with illicit distilling?" "I grant all you say but death is a sovere sentence for a few gallons of mountain dew," said the doctor. "True," said the judge after a payse. "I will suspend sentence in his case, and let him go home. Here is his release," said he, as he filled out a blank "take it to him—a new sort of phyBic, truly 1 But tell him he won't get off so easy the next time he meddles with tho revenue." "Thanks," said the doctor as he took the paper, "It will bo many a day, if ever, before he will feel like playing with edged tools. Judge, this is the first time I ever envied your high positionwhen I see the mercy you can show." "Is the sun a-shinln' outside, Pa?"'

The sick man lay on his bunk in his cell his fever scorched tongue was stiff and blackened so that ho could scarcely speak. It was difficult to recognize in the wan shadow lying there the stalwart mountaineer of few months ago. His blue eyes were «unk deep in nis head his matted hair and beard wero bleached from a 6unburnt yellow to a sickly straw color, and over the hollow caverns of his cheeks the white skin, blanched by prisI on dank, was tightly drawn. On its bloodless surface the red blotches of the spotted fever showed with startling vividness.

Could this be Jack Bigbv, the man who could outshoot, outride, outjump and outdance any of his comrades?

Old Bigby, otherwise Pap, as he sat by the bedside of his sick son, felt dazed and stunned by the change. He had only arrived that morning, and, in the few hours that had passed, failed yet to realize it. Could that be Jack? He was changed in his ways as well as in his looks. How strange he talked! "Set whar I kain see ye, Tap," he said, when liis father had arrived. "Tlie sight of ye is good fer sore eyos." &3 lie Baid it, all at onco the father had choked up and felt like crving he didn't know why. But h« hadn't done it. "Hit war powerful cur'ouB. Jes' ter think o' Jack a-sayin' sech a thing! Rough an' ready Jack ter winter lay thar an' look at his ole pap!"

Mr. Bigby, it is true, wa3 not a very I beauteous object, nor one on which most people would crave to feast their eyes,

He looked as if the summer sun had shone upon him very hot and the winter I rain had beat upon him very hard, lie could, in fact, be called weather beaten,

His long, iron gray hair and beard were guiltless of barber or comb and brush either, for that matter. The Heams and rugged lines of his face caused his countenance to look like a bit of tolling landscape. But all seamed and rugged as it was, to the homesick eyes of his son it was more beautiful than the face of Adonis.

Mountaineers are not emotional people, and so old Bigby sat there, his throat swelling queerly under the strange gaze of his son. Mingled with his emotion was a feeling of wontler and horror at his changed appearance. "His hands," thought the father, "air like chicken clawst" Could that pale, shadowy thing be Jack's muscular fist? "Is the sun shinin' outside, pap?" asked

Jack, for his father's presence had bright-

I1pned

up his cell.

"Yes," said the old man, "hit's a-shln-tn' right smart, but hit's so dim in hyar, ye kaint sec hit." "Hit air dim in hyar alius," said the prisoner, "tell fer a leetle taste o' sunshine, 'pears like I'd perish." "Ye'il git better now," said the father,

taking the invalid's thin hand 111 ins brown, horny one, and awkwardly strok' ing it. "Why, yer hand," said he byway of a joke, "is so thin an' white hit looks eenamos' like a streak* o' light." "I 'low I looks like a afternoon shadder, anyhow," said the invalid, feebly. "I kaint hold out much longer." "Yer mouth's dry,, honey," said tho anxious father, unconsciously going back to his childhood's way of speaking to him. "Hyar, let pap gin yea lectle sup o' water ter wet it."

But the prisoner closed his eyes and slightly shook his head. "Jest a drop," coaxed tho father "jes tho matter o' a drap, Jackie, honey." "Not tliet thar water," said tho prisoner rousing up. "Thet tliar prison water makes mo heave. Oh, fer a drink outer the spring at home! seem? like I could drink hit dry."

Old Bigby felt frightened ho was no part of a nurse, and tho changed appearance of his son still shocked him. "Hit looks like good water," said he, "hit does. Try a sup."

But the sick man refused, and his father welcomed the entrance of tlie, jailer. "Here, Jack," said that official, "my wife's sent vou some soup try and take it."

But tho invalid still refused. "I kaint eat Jiit," he said. "What do you crave?" asked tho jailer. "Sunshine an' fresh a'r," cried the prisoner, rousing up. "Ef I could only git out whar the sunt! shine on me, an' the mountain a'r would blow on me, an' whar I could see the peak o' old Baldface, a-rollin' up behin' pap's house, seems like I could git up an' run a mile." "You should ha' thought of all o' that afore you went to monkeying with the revenue," said the jailer. "I never thought ez how I'd bo cotched," said the prisoner, sullenly. "But hit does seeui hard," said old Bigby, apologetically, "fer a man ter suffer so much—eenamos' pay with his life fer niakin' a few gallons o' wild cat liquor liker that." "The government don't want it," said the jailer, undertaking to explain the revenue system, "but it don't want you to have it, neither." "Well, now, thet does look cur'ous," said old Bigby. "What kain hit matter ter the gov'ment? En what," he continued, as the jailer was unable to answer that question, "en what's a man to do with his extry crap o' corn when he kaint git hit to market? Wo uns lives on tho

o' old Baldface, en ter haul our

crap ter market costs purty nigh ez much ez the crap is wuth. En this year, owin' ter one accident en another, the crap piddled out o' tho small een o' the horn. Hit didn't pay ter haul thet leetle bit ter market fer the mite o' money they'd pay fer hit. E11 wo uns war hard up we had nary sugar nor coffee—jes' bread en a little bite o' meat en Jack sez, sezzee, 'I hain't agivine ter stend hit, I hain't I'll jes haul the corn over ter Stillinger's still en turn hit inter bug juice. Hit'll fotcli nuff ter buy Giigar an' coffee.' "So he hauled hit over thar ter the still, every bit o' our crap we had to spar, en the stillers stilled hit ou sheers. The shotes, they followed Jack, en the rev'nue they followed the shotes en busted up the still, en throwed out the mash en the beer en the whisky en away went our year's crap at a lick. En wussur an all, they cotched Jack. Stillinger hegoter way—lie's olo hand at the business—en the rev'nue took en brung Jack ter Atlanty." "Then you didn't git no sugar nor coffee?" said the jailer, as old Bigby paused. "Nary drap," said he mournfully, shaking his grizzled head, "en we lost our leetle crap besides. But what's sugar en coffee ter Jack bein' tuck? Mo en his ma en the gals wish wo uns never heared tell o' sugar en coffee. What's sugar en coffee ter Jack's a lyin* thar a-perishin' away, weaker 'an a baby?" cried the old man in a tremulous voice.

Here the sick man's nerves gave way under a flood of self pity, and ho began to weep. "Thar—thar—honey," cried his father, trying to soothe him, "don't vo cry." He thrust' his hand into tlie pocket of his copperas jeans coat and drew out a gaudy red and yellow cotton handkerchief. "Lai Lai" he ejaculated, "ef I hain't clean disrememberod all 'bout hit! Why, honey, ef hyar hain't anow henkercher yer ma sent me. She saved up all o' ole Speck's aigs en sol' 'em Chris'mas, en buyed hit fer ye fer present, en she's been a-keepin' hit fer ye ever sence."

But tho gaudy handkerchief, far from comforting the prisoner, overwhelmed him with home sickjiesB. "Take hit away!" ho sobbed. "Take hit away! Oh, ma! Oh, ma! I'll never see ye agin!"

The stalwart mountaineer dashed the gay handkerchief under the bed, and kneeling beside his son, cradled him in his arms as if lie were a baby. "Thar, now thar, now don't ye take hit so ter heart. Ye'll git well en see her yit Pap'll nuss his boy tell he sees her. Don't! don't, my Jackie, my baby! Oh, my Lord!" he moaned in sudden terror at his helplessness to comfort. Tho unhappy father's tears mingled with his son's, nnd I10 vainly strove to dry them in his blue checked handkerchief.

The friendly jailer's eyes filled, and his throat swelled, and fearing he might bo gw ept away in the sea of woo, ho hastily retreated to the door, and nearly knocked over the doctor, who was entering. "What is tUe matter," said he. "Come, come, this won't do!" "He won't hush," said tho father. "Ef bis ma war. oniy hyar ter nuss him he'd lo lxtter." •'Well, he must get well and go to her. Here's something that will cure him faster than all my medicine," and tho doctor held up tho paper. "See, tho judge has sent you a release," and he'read it aloud. 'Now, Bigbv, you must get well, so you can travel." "I'll never get well' in hyar," said the prisoner, trying to stay his sobs. "All I crave is a leetle sunshine en fresh a'r." "Well, you shall have it just as soon as you can travel." "Pap, ye say tho sun's a shinin' outside?" said the prisoner. "Well, liit'g a-sliinin' right smart," said Mr. Bigby, winking the tears off his eyelashes. "Yes," said he, qualifying, as it wero, his assertion, "I mought say hit's a-shiniu' right peart." "En hit's a-gittin'' warm, hain't hit?" asked he. "Spring's a-comin', hain't it?" "Spring's-a comin' on," assented Mr.

Bigby. "Tho Bnow's dono melted and gone, the peach trees air a-bloomin', the

"The jaybirds air beginnin' ter sing, en soon the voice o' the turtle will be heared in the land," he concluded. "Then I'll go," said Jack, howesick for a sight of wlmt his father had told him. "It will be a great risk," said the doctor. "Well, I'll risk hit. What's the use o' dyin', like a rat in a hole, in tills hyer jail?"' said the'prisoner. "It is almost certain death to venture," insisted the doctor. "Wait till you get a little better." "Ef mus' dio, lemmo die at home," cried Jack. 'Pears like I could die easier thar."

Seeing that he was determined to go, the doctor ceased to urge him. "Havo you tho means to take him home?" he asked the father, who had arisen and seated himself on tho side of tho bunk. "Well, yes," siJd tho old man, "I

"Well," said Mr. Bigby, undaunted by the dismal prospect ahead, "I thought as how I'd sell my cow en calf, arter Jack is well nuff to do 'thaut the milk, en buy a steer. Only lemmo git him back ter his maIn the mountains enwoj^scratch 'long somehow."

The sun shono bright and warm tho air was sweet and balmy spring was coming fast, and April seemed to havo hastened along the road to meet March and strewed a few of her days In his calendar. Tho sun beamed into the car where Jack Bigby lay on two seats, apparently half asleep. For the first half of tho journey the excitement, the change, the thought of homo, had kept him up. "Tho sun—the a'r," ho cried, delightedly, "hit's powerful good, pap!" "Hit's mighty peart," said tho old man, sympathetically.

But now, his little strength exhausted, Jack lay in a state of collapse that his father mistook for sleep, with tho sun shining full into his face, though he did not seem to know it. "Wake up, Jackic," said old Bigby, cheerfully. "We air outer Canton now, en gwine in ermong the mountains. Look at 'em."

Tlie sick man roused up, and with his father's assistance raised himself so as to look out of tho window. As far as the eye could reach range after range of mountains met the view rising one above the other. Tlie invalid gazed upon them as if he could never get his fill and drank in the mountain air as if it was an elixir. "Thar, thar, Jackie," said his father "I'm afeard you'll cotcli cole." "TI16 sighter them is good for sore eyes," said tho released prisoner. And language could go no further in his cose.

Old Bigby laughed. "What'll yo Bay when yo see Baldface, en thet thar big pine thot'B growd on the tip toper hit war we uao ter go a coon huntinT" "Ef ever I gets able ter climb up thar, I'll never wanter come down again," said Jack.

Again his father laughed. "Is thet thar ole pine all ye're hankerin' arter, sonny?" he asked. "In course I wanter see ma and the gala," said the sick man. "When I see ma agin I"—his voice failed him and be broke down. "Thar, thar," said tho old'man hastily, "don't bother 'bout ma en the gals—not but what they'll hev' er shout en go roun' when they see ye. Lie down en res' now." lie laid his son back on the seat, and Jack wearily closed his eyes and seemed to sleep. Absorbed with his unaccustomed surroundings old Bigby did not notice his heavy breathing, which was deadened by the noise of the train. At last, glancing out tho window, familiar objects came in view. "Jackie," said the old man, "Jackie, wake up, honey. Tliar's old Baldface. Look up. En thar'2 yan pine."

The sick man unclosed his eyes', but they wore a strange look. "I see no pine," ho said feebly.

Old Bigby grew frightened. He passed his arms around his son and lifted him by main force terror gave him strength. "Look, look," he cried anxiously.

But his son's head fell back against his shoulder, the cool mountain breeze played with his hair, the sunshine beamed in his face, but tho dying mountaineer saw nothing. In vain his glazing eyes turned toward the distant mountains. "I kaint see hit," said he feebly, "I'm going fas'. Bury me on toper ole Baldrace, pap, yander pino—thar I'll sleep free forover."

His struggling breath ceased. No more his darkening eyes could seo the sun for which ho so craved. The judge's suspended sentence now availed nim naught. Summoned before a greater judge, the moonshiner was free.—Paul Qrant in Atlanta Constitution.

Judge Hanna at Philadelphia has filed an opinion iu tho orphans' court, deciding the difference in the meaning of the words "between" and "among." William Hicks made a will in 18SJ, in which he said: "After my debts are paid my property shall bo equally divided between my wife, Martha R. Hicks, and my daughters, Ida Bell aud Ella Billmayer." It was urged that the word between meant that the widow should get onehalf of the estate, and the other heirs the. remaining half. -Tlie juh?o says that it is plain the testator meant to divide the estate equally between and not among tho heirs, and that by the word "between" each of the heirs is entitled to the third.

To "strike flag" is to lower the national colors in token of submission. Flags ore used as the symbol of rank and command, tho officers using them being called flag officers. Such flags are square to distinguish them from other banners.

A "flag of truce" is a white flag displayed to an enemy to indicate a desire for a parley or consultation.

Tlie white flag is a sign of peace. After a battle parties of both sides often go out to the field to rescue the wounded or bury the dead under the protection of a white flag.
