COURSE OF TRUE LOVE

By JENNIE H. OLIVER.

(Copyright.)

It was a storm quite notable in history. It came out of a blur of angry, evening red, with wild sheets of screaming, white rain from the murky, boiling river. Under it the little cabin cowered like a beaten hound —even the three shadows within looming grotesquely backward from the fireplace, shrinking and flaring fitfully aa the eddying flame sprang upward and strung itself like rubles on threads of cobweb srfhying from the blackened rafters

Between crashes of deafening thunder two of the shadows talked doggedly and persistently. “Yes, Steve,” said one, lifting his shrewd, calculating features In a vain endeavor to suck Into life his neglected pipe, “yuh ricollict whut I told yuh last time yuh ast fer Retta-May. Conditions is jist th’ same now, and alius will be. “Cur’us, Steve, yuh kain’t remember that old Ike Pedigrew don’t Bay things fer th’ fun of hit. Twenty year I be’n wantin’ that north forty. Yer daddy and I fit hand tuh hand over hit; but he died a year too soon. Lived, an’ I’d a had him. Reckon I’ve got yuh, Steve, instid —fer hit’s that north forty, er no Retta-May.” “They ain’t no jestlce in hit, Ike,” cried the young man hotly. “Hit’s plum’ robbery. How’m I goin’ to take keer o’ Retta es I give up the only part o’ my land that’s wuth workin’?”

“I hain’t astin’ yuh to take keer on her; Jest tuh Agger on that land with me. Es thar’s iny other way tuh do hit, so much the better, fer I’ve got other plans for Retta-May. Not that hit fialn’t fltten fer her tuh bring me somethln r TerT»er raisin’, as her sisterß never done. ’’They was sailer and skinny; but, land, look at Retta-May; Blue and peenk and gold—slim and straight; strong as a young pant’er. Es she hain’t wuth more tuh yuh than the north forty, why, yuh don’t hev tuh take her —that’s all.” There was a sudden, fierce outburst of the storm, ns if the very prince of demons had broken loose; and under its clutching hand the stanch little •structure shuddered and rattled fearsomely. Dark streams of rain crawled in from the sill-less door, and the girl rose silently to sweep back the flood and block Its further entrance with an old ragged coat “ ’Tain’t jest, Ike,” fumed the young man when at last he could make himself heard. “Yuh know there’s coal and mebbe gas on that paster-ridge, and that I’m raisin’ money tuh work hit. Yuh think I didn’t see yuh with that passel o’ prospectors from Little Rock, but I did. And hit’s mine, Ikp Pedigrew, and I don’t ’low tuh give hit up. I ’low tuh dress Retta like a queen when I builds her a new house up under that bunch o’ pine!” “Well, Steve,” answered the old man provokingly, slowly Sucking at his relighted pipe, “I reckon hit’ll turn out by y’ur bulldin’ one on stilts for her over on the south forty under them flms. Reckon yuh’ll hev tuh raise rice tuh keep her, fer I’m goin’ tuh hev that north forty—that, er she marries Jake Dempsey. “Don’t make much difference tuh me. Jake offered me mighty nigh as good a forty, and a fine Jersey cow throwed In. Reckon I’d ruther hev Jake fer relation—he hain’t so blamed obstinate.” Pedigrew laughed disagreeably, and bent to throw on another log.

“Reckon yuh see how hit Is, Steve,’ he went on, after he had gone to stuff up a broken shutter and stop the swirl of red embers that enveloped them for a breathless moment “Y'ur north forty and mine bumps heads at a mighty convenient bend In the river. Now, whin I git busy with them commodities that natur* has packed in thar, I kin mighty easy make use o’ nature’s waterway tub pack ’em off tuh companies that needs ’em. Reckon old man Pedigrew won’t be a rich man then —no, I reckon not!” "Whut es Retta and I takes things In our own hands, Ike? Whut es “I’ll tell yuh, Steve, whut es. RettaMay’B marry Jake Dempsey In the mawnin’, jist as soon’s hit is good and light. Ast him and Jestice Potter over to witness the windin’ up—be handy tuh hev ’em inywav the cat jumps. •Nother thing, Retta-May hain’t her own boss by two year and then some. Retta-May hain’t be’n outen this yard sense yuh an’ I tangled up In this deal. Guess I hold the whup-band. Steve."

The young man dropped bis face in ! his hands and sat for sdme time in deep thought. The bearing light i sprang rudely over his dark head, I over the old man’s hard, shrewd eyes, and the girl’s beauty. Around them roared and walled and crashed the tireless fury of the storm. Finally Stephen Martin sprang erect, a brave resolve in his deep-set gray eyes. •TO give her up, Ike,” he said, huskily. “I’d rather she married some oneas has plenty then tuh go out into the world empty-handed with me. Heaven knowß Td rather do without her than tub see her eyes grow hopeless and her form thin and bent like her mother’s ard mine." “Stop!" cried the girl .suddenly, wltt blazing eyes. “Yuh don’t never leave byer ’thout me. Leave him hev tbs old north forty. I’d rather hev yuh than Jake es he was made o’ gold. As soon as hit’s light we’ll walk outen hyar and leave pappy with his moneyTub'll hev tuh do bit, Stephen," she

went on, with her excited eyes on his troubled face, ” ’cause I’ll go inyways —pappy kain’t keep me in this prisoii no more.” Stephen took the girl’s coaxing hand and smoothed it gently. He thought of it seamed and darkened and roughened. Still her eyes commanded him, and he answered hesitatingly: “The north forty’s your’n, Ike, and Retta’s mine.”

“Retta-May, yuh’re a fool,” growled her father with well-assumed dissatisfaction. "Yuh’ll wear rags yit Reckon we’d better put this deal in writin’ right now, Steve. There ain’t no use o’ waitin’.”

"Hadn’t we better fix this door first, Ike?” said the young man, regarding with suspicion the black stream seeping through Retta’s barrier. “Looks like we’d be swamped perty soon.” “Hain’t nuthin’ we kin do but let the water run out again. Doeß that ever* time hit rains. Hain’t never be’n swamped yit. Retta-May, climb onto that bench and tuck yer feet under yuh. Now, Steve, write hit in that I glta y’ur north forty as divided from the south forty by Big Rock and Sentinel Gum Tree. Hain’t no mlstakin’ that way o’ puttin’ hit. Everythin' north’s mine - everythin’ sooth's

your’n. Write hit in, Steve —write hit In!” _ ~ Standing almoßt ankle-deep in water, the young man bent over the rude table and gravely wrote the document as directed. As he handed It to Pedigrew the cabin tilted sickeningly forward, there was a gurgling Inrush of the foamy flood, and the Are went out quickly with a strong smell of wet ashes. They were in total darkness. “Retta,” shouted Stephen, groping for her in the blackness. “Retta, Retta!” There was a gasping cry from among the huddled furniture as the cabin itself with a hissing outpour of footer, and then sprang sidewise Hie a chunk of driftwood in a whirlpool; and in a moment he held the girl’s dripping, Shaking form tightly with one arm while he braced his back against the heaving side of the rough wall and spread a protecting hand over the silk of her hair. Any minute something might drop upon them —some awful thing reach out of the hideous melee of sound. They could hear the old man blundering and sputtering furiously among the shifting debris. They could hear the grinding and tearing of rock and tree —the continuous swirl and roar of angry water bearing them jerkily along In the awful gloom. Occasionally a red flare of lightning showed them the cabin’s wild Interior, with objects heaped grotesquely against the fireplace. By one such flash the old man made his way over to Stephen and Retta. “Devil’s own night, this!” he shouted angrily. “Be’n hyar nigh on to twenty year, and never did see no sich goin’s on before. I’ll bet we’re in the river right now, goin’ south like thunder.” So he punctuated the awful uncertainty, and reitfrated raspingly as the night wore on. ~ ■ Finally, after what seemed an eternity of tipping and whirling none could guess whither, they felt the cabin settle firmly and remain at anchor. The storm rested, and through the broken shutters filtered the grateful light'of the coming dawn. Righting the obstructing furniture, they made their way through the slimy mud to the door. Pulling It wide on its sagging hinges, they looked out oh a scene that drew a sharp cry of wonder from the young couple and a yell of consternation from the thwarted old schemer.

They were south of Big Rock and Sentinel Gum Tree, on a firm, rootbound clump that had washed safely out into the stream and worked its way to a quiet inlet in the water side of the south forty. The two valuable pastures were nowhere to be seen. Undermined and crumbled by the wearisg flood of centuries, they had melted and spread uselessly under the furious yellow stream, and over their coal and gas the water rushed and foamed and swirled; while, freed from its pentup, film-covered pools, Stephen Martin’s southland lay green and smiling on the ridges—richly, muckily black where the dpeps caught the rosy morning light Amazed at the miracle wrought overnight by the storm and the freakish river, the trio stood, silently gazing from the cabin door. (Finally the old man spoke: “Well, Steve,” he said matter-of-fact-ly, ■“ ’tain’t whut I expected, but ’tis as ’tis, and I hain’t goin’ tuh squeal about hit I reckon the parson’ll do as well as tße jestice, the way things has turned out, 'sides bein’ a sigbt nearer, lessen he’s washed away. “Hurry up breakfast, Retty-May— I'm mighty nigh starved tb death!"

Old-Time Warfare.

Naval guns possessed no sights at the beginning of the last century. A line was scored on each gun in order to assist the aim, but, being of thicker metal near the breech thaa the muzzle, the line did not even represent the axis of the gun. Just before the battle of Copenhagen, Nelson was asked if he would interview an inventor who wished to demonstrate before him the value of a simple form of sights that would enable the gunner to hit accurately an object at a distance. “If the person comes," said the great little man, “I shall, of course, look at it, or be happy, if necessary, to use 1L But I hop* we shall be able, as üßual,“To get so dose to our enemies that our shot canned miss the object”—Answers. j.

NEW IDEA OF ECONOMY

RAILROADS AIM TO MAKE EMPLOYEES CAREFUL. Move Has Resulted in Cutting Down the Heavy Requisitions for Small Supplies—Better Than Old System Employed. The railroads, the greatest spenders of the age, have recently been propounding to their employees the conundrum: "How long will a broom last?’’ writes George Ethelbert Walsh, in the Sunday Magazine of the Chicago Herald. If the once-a-month broom can be converted into the two months’ broom, the economical station agent saves for his railroad the cost of hauling one ton of freight 35 miles every two months; which, six times a year, means the cost of hauling a ton of freight 210 miles. But the broom is merely taken as a symbol in the new railroad economy. Take lamp chimneys, several of which have to be used in each station. Every time one breaks a charge must be made against the railroad equal to the cost of hauling a ton of freight 10% miles. Twenty lamp chimneys broken a year in a single station means that some poor locomotive must stagger under an extra ton of freight over 210 miles just to pay for them. Even the lead pencil must not be despised. A requisition for a new lot of pencils can be made out in a few minutes; but a ton of freight must be hauled two miles to pay for each new one. The' same is true of each track ppike that works loose and is thrown aside. A track bolt is similarly treated as waste; but it is worth three and a half miles of haulage of a ton of freight.

The man who was responsible for working out these details of cost of ordinary trifles in railroad language was something of an economist. He had the idea that waste in trifles had something to do with the high cost of railroad operation. The monthly requisition for supplies of a trifling nature reached the huge sum of 126,000, or $300,000 a year, and he forthwith decided to cut down the cost.

After figuring out the freight haulage of the different items, he offered rewards ranging from SIOO to $lO to every station agent who showed the greatest annual saving of general station supplies. He paid out S6OO in prizes, and cut the requisitions down $25,000 the first year. The second year the requisitions for lead pencils, brooms, lamp chimneys, lanterns, coal shovels, waste and pails decreased so generally that the suspicion was aroused that many of the agents were buying their own supplies in order to get in on some of the prize awards.

At one time railroad economy generally meant laying off a few men, cutting wages of others, and' postponing the purchase of much needed new equipment, and rolling stock. In the end this sort of economy resulted in more inefficient service, grumbling and strikes, and deterioration of tracks, roadbed and general equipment. Sooner or later the railroad had t«| pay for a policy that was about as economical as killing the'old goose that laid the golden eggs.

An Impression of Gorky.

“Once when I was singing in Nijnl early in the morning,” said Chaliapine, Russia’s greatest singer, “I looked out and saw Gorky standing at a window in the same hotel, and gazing silently over the city. The sun was shining on the towers of the churches, over the silver river and turning the roofs red. ‘You are up early,’ I said. ‘Yes,’ he answered. ‘Come in my room for a moment’ When I reached his window I saw that he had tears in his eyes, and I did not understand. *Look.’ he said to me, ‘how beautiful it is. Just the world and not a human being anywhere. The humanity which has made Its gods and its laws, built Its houses and its churches, all asleep and helpless as children, powerless to change or adjust all this that it has made.’ “He spoke very,, softly and very sweetly, and —Jar the moment he seemed to me the most perfect human being in the world, Truly one of Russia's flowers of genius.”—tfrom the Craftsman.

EARLY TRAVEL ON THE LINE

Rules and Regulations That Made Passengers Toe the Mark Were in Force. As a contrast to the traveling facilities which are now so universal, it is interesting to read a "Copy of the Rules for Travelers on the First Railway,” a document still preserved among the archives of the company of the Manchester to Liverpool railroad, and which has been sent by A. S. Whitefield to Notes and Queries. The rules are as follows; 1. Any person desiring to travel from Liverpool to Manchester, or vice versa, or any portion of the Journey thereof, must, 24 hours beforehand, make application to the station agent at the place of departure, giving his name, address, place of birth, age, occupation and reason for desiring to travel. 2. The station agent upon assuring himself that the applicant desires to travel for a just and lawful cause, shall thereupon issue a ticket to the applicant, who shall travel by the train named thereon. 3. Trains will start at their point of departure as near schedule times as possible, but the company does not guarantee when they will reach their destination. - 4. Trains not reaching their destination before dark will put up at one of the several stopping places along the route for the night, and passengers must pay, and provide for, their own lodging during the night. . 5. Luggage will be carried on the roof of the carriages. If such luggage gets wet the company will not be responsible for any loss attaching thereto.

NEW ALPINE ROAD BUILDING

Will Be the Longest Yet Constructed and Bhould Prove a Delight to Tourists. The longest Alpine railroad in existence will run from Brieg, near the Italian border, to Dlsentis and will thus connect the former with the Federal Swiss lines. Beginning at the end of the Simplon tunnel, at 2,200 feet above sea level, this remarkable road passes directly over the Saint Gothard tunnel as a surface road at 4,700 feet above sea level and rises at one point to 7,100 feet. With a branch of an existing road, the new line will connect Brieg with Saint Moritz, between which points daily runs will be made each way and afford tourists a route of surpassing beauty through the hitherto remote and little known region of the upper Rhone and past the headwaters of the upper Rhine. —Scientific American.

Extending Use of Wireless.

For many years F. H. Millener, experimental engineer of the Union Pacific railroad, has been working on wireless telephone apparatus for direct communication with moving trains. He announces that, his plans have been completed and a satisfactory system has been developed whereby he is able to talk with a moving train 100 miles away from the wireless* transmitting station.

Cost of Locomotives.

It is impossible to state definitely the cost of a locomotive, as they vary so greatly in size and specification. One of the small two-wheel class, used for yard shunting and similar light service, costs about $15,000 or $20,000, while one of the huge, highpressure passenger locomotives, known to the drivers as “hogs,” might range from $150;000 to $200,000.

Credit for Lord Lister.

Sir Frederick Treves is said to have stated that Lord Lister won the RussoJapanese war, and certainly the statistics revealed a surgical triumph over wounds and Inflammations that was all-important when a small-nation was fighting a large one. As an example of the aseptic and antiseptic plans followed it is reported that when any Japanese battleship was going into action the men were ordered to take a bath in disinfectant and to wear clean boiled underclothing, thus insuring the cleanliness ' and easy healing of possible wounds, and a quick return'of healthy ineh to active* service.
