Says He Didn't.

IN answer to the charge of assaulting Hiram Churchill, an aged colored man, last winter, Elva Derrickson has entered a plea of not guilty. It will be remembered that the Derrickson's, two negro toughs, assaulted, almost killed, and then robbed old man Churchill last winter. The evidence is abundaut to send them up, and the plea is only to give the court the trouble of a trial. Ninetynine years would be about the proper time for these youug desperadoes to serve—but they will get justice.

BRIARSMERE.

Bsme Barton, as she rode along bfer trusty little cob, paid no heed to the weather, so absorbed w&3 she in her own thoughts. Ralph Underwood was coming that flight to ask her to be his wife, she felt sure, for his manner at the Fletchers' dance had been unmistakable.

What answer should she give him Could sfie ever love a roan she did not altogether trust

Ah, if only Jack conld speak, she knew what answer she would give, bnt Jack never would now, though years ago he had shown in a hundred little ways that he loved her.

But that was before his father died, and Briarsmere was found to be mortgaged and all the affairs terribly involved. So now Jack was a poor man and had even undertaken work as Underwood's agent to payoff the mortgage which Ralph held.

Esme was rich and could do as she liked with the fortune she had inherited from her mother, bnt was powerless to help Jack because of that unwrittea law that "a man is to woo, a woman is to be wooed."

The rain poured down and at last ^woke Esme $oj senseftjf what was gotng'on around hetT^""-"

On trying -to lift the latch Esme found it was locked, but discovered a shelter in the peat shed at the back.

As she stood there caressing her horse to allay its fears she was startled to hear a key fitted into the lock of tha door in front of the house

The boards of the mud covered walls were ill fitted and rotten, and Esme could distinctly hear two men talking as they entered and shook the wate? from their clothes. "You must do'something for the place," said a voice she recognized as Jack's. "I'll not spend a cent' •"That is, of course, your affair, Mi. Underwood," said Jack. "In my posi ticn as agent it was my dnty to point put to you what was needed, but I can iwt make you do it Only I tell you, an man to man, that the neglect of your tenant's interests is a disgrace to the neighborhood. I have worked as your agent in order to work off the mortgage which you hold on my property, buj suppose the foreclosure you threaten must come, for I canrfot •*. -ork for you any longer and have not money to redeem the estate." "And, pray, why am I to lose yom valuable services?" said Underwood. "YOTI know that during my management your profits have nearly doubled, but when it comes to distilling liquors In underground distilleries and expecting me to be a party to the fraud I draw Che line." "How dare you speak like this to me I" said Underwood, choking with rage. "You pauper, if I had not employed you, you would have starved I' "You are exaggerating my poverty,' •aid Jack, in a calm tone. "It is trr» by honest work I hop#d to regain my property, but when you expect dishonest work you have come to the wrong man. "By the way," continued Jack, and •Esme could hardly catch his words, for he was already on the road, "I have ordered back the pipes and stills." "The dickens you have!" roared Underwood. as he paced the miserable room.

A quarter of an hour later Esme was in the cozy office of her friend and adviser, Mr. Ranee. "It is a large sum of money to invest in landed property, Miss Esme." "I know," said the girl in her quick, bright way, "bnt what does that matter 'I I have ever so much more when that is spent. Besides, 1 happen to know the mortgage will be foreclosed if this money is not paid, and I have other reasons as well."

Beauty, trotting along in the twilight, was within a mile of her own warm stable when she suddenly swerved from a dark figure walking rapidly in the shadow.

Esme, who bad been sitting lightly in the saddle, thinking over her afternoon's work, was taken unawares and flung to the ground.

Stooping over her, Jack—for it was he who had unwittingly frightened the cob—lifted her quickly in his arms. She was dazed and stunned, and as her head rested on his shoulder he stooped and pressing his lips to hers stole th« kiss that be bad never dared to hope would be his by right. "Esme," he said after a pause, in which each read the other's heart, "I never dared to hope that you had given nxfyour love, and I have no right tu 86k you to be my wife, fop in a few we ks I sbalFhave no home. Briarsmere is no longer mine. I kissed you because I could not help it as you lay in my arms, and I thought you had fainted." "Briarsmere is mine," said Esme, smiling, "and it is very mean of you, Jack, only to want to kiss mo when I have fainted."—Exchange.
