Mrs. Stone calmly continued with her Jmitting for some moments, but she finally dropped it in her lap and pushed her spectacles up on her forehead, observing: "There, there, Elisha, don't make such vow over an old pipe. As for Dick Bunker, he seems a rather likely sort of young man, even if Jed Bunker is his father an"— 'Mandy Jane," almost roared the old fanner, "do you mean to say you favor that young rascal? I)o you mean to say •you would have the son of our worst enemy sparkin round our Lizzie?'' "Well, not exactly that," replied the woman, rather overawed by her husband's manner But, then, she might do worse." "She might? I'd like to know howl ,1 Jfcnow there ain't many likely young men out in this country, an for her sake I sometimes wish we'd never left New Hampshire an moved out here. I'd never done it if the old farm hadn't run out there, an then I got beat on this place. There ain't no water here, an I've spent more'n $800 on that confounded old well." "Money throwed away," siglied Mrs. Stone, picking up her knitting and resuming work in a mechanical manner. "That's so," confessed Klisha, slightly tfiamefaced "It's no thin but a hole in the ground, an lately it smells so bad there's near no endurin it when the wind rMowB this way. I don't understand it at all, an If I was goin to stay here I'd have 'to fill In that hole to stop the stench." "We may stay here, arterall, father." "May I I guess not. We'll move just soon as the law turns Bunker out." "nvmcn icar it'll never do. xou knc„ Banker claims Noah Jackson, the man to which you paid your money, didn't have no teal title to the property, an the judge told you you'd have to look to Jackson to get four rights." "That's folderol! How'm I goin to look to Jackson when nobody knows where an the face of the earth Jackson's gone toP Besides that, if this new evidence 'mounts to anything, Bunker was in league with Jackson an the place b'longs to me.

The Fourth of July oughter fee celebrated by ev'rybody in this great an glorious country cv'ry time it comes sound. Now don't make no more talk a3bout4t he cautioned as he saw his wife «ras about to speak again. "It's no use fylHn, for I have sent for the fireworks, an they'll sure be here tonight, so the boys con shoot 'em off tomornv night, an that settles it."

With that he arose and marched out of the house, leaving Mrs. Stone to her knitting and her thoughts. "S'powo Elisha thinks lie's goin to celetmte the Fourth," she murmured, "but mi really be celebratin because he thinks he's goin to get the best of Bunker at hist. Weil, mcvbbe he will, but I dunno's Bunkcr'm so much to blame, for he did make it look pretty clear he had a prior claim to the place. My opinion Is that Jackson is the rascal, else he'd never run away the Wagr he did, but there's no use sayin so to he's so sot."

Thak t^ght at dusk Lizzie Stone slipped •tby the back door and stole away down ha lans that led to the pasture. Her manor betrayed the fact that she feared being by some of the family, for she paused and looked back nervously tJwr obouldw.

{Copyright, 1895, by American Press Association. "I tell you. mother, the boys shall celebrate once in their lives if they want to, nn it's no use arguin over it. I've promised them for the last two year that they should have ii reworks—skyrockets, Roman candles, nn all them things—an I've never kept my word before, so I'm goin to this year. I've never felt able sence .led Bunker brought suit agin me an got possion of the Robblns place just as we goin to move down there, but now"— "Now you're goin to make a show of jonrself just because there seems to be a chance that the decision of the court will reversed an we may get what we bought paid for with our hard earned money." "Well, ain't thatenough to make us feel good, hey? Why shouldn't we celebrate?" "I advise you to wait till you are sure this new evidence of yourn 'mounts to «nything, Elislia.

'k-

Lizzie was a pretty girl, bright ana

of the

romantic and frivolous in her na-

I ture. This, however, would disappear in I later years when she came to understand

life as it really is, and, for the time being, it made her seem all the more attractive to the young men who knew her.

Of all those young men there was but one for whom she really and truly cared, and that one she met at the foot of the lane, which Elisha Stone had laid out in genuine New England fashion, much to the wonder and amusement of his western neighbors. He was leaning on the fence and waiting for her as she approached. "Lizzie, I feared you would not come!" he exclaimed, reaching over and clasping her hands, whilo she saw his eyes gleam through the murk witl? alight that set her heart fluttering and her pulses throbbing. "I had to steal away," she replied, in a low tone, feeling that her cheeks were burning. "If father'd seen me"— "I should not have had that pleasure. Thank fortune he did not see you! It is a cruel fate that makes our families foc6, while we love each other, for you cannot deny you love me, sweetheart."

He drew her closer, and one arm slipped about her shoulders. She struggled and remonstrated a little, but she soon stood with bent head listening to his impulsive declaration of love. "If I were a scoundrel,'* he said, "I might try to induce you to run away with me, but I mean to win you by fair means, I and win you I will!" "Father"— "I know, sweetheart, but say you will I marry me, and I will find some way to obtain his consent. I will go to him tomorrow and ask for you." "No, no! That would ruin all! You don't know my father! He is so 6tern and

set! He has forbidden me ever speaking to you again, and if he were to know I met you here there would be serious trouble" "Still, my only way is to go to him like a man and ask for you. Then, if he refuses, I must find some way to'overcome his opposition. Say you love me, Lizziesay you will marry me—give me liberty to ask him for you!" "It would be worse than folly, for you are Dick Bunker, the son of the man fathor considers his worst enemy." "My father is not your father's enomy. In truth, father is very sorry Mr. Stone was swindled by Jackson, and he says he would willingly spend money and time to bring the rascal to justice." "Ah, but you could not convince father this is true if you tried a year. He believes your father and Jackson were leagued together to swindle him—it is on that ground ho is trying to bring the case into court again. He feels certain of obtaining a new trial and winning. Why, he feels so good over it that he is going to celebrate the Fourth with fireworks tomorrow night. He sent to town for them, and they came in a big box this afternoon."

Dick Bunker shook his head. "He is celebrating too soon, if he is spending his enthusiasm because he feels sure of victory and not from a patriotic motive. Father's title is clear, and a new trial will simply mean further expense for Mr. Stone with certain defeat In the end." "He will .fight as long as he can, and the result must make him more set against you. Oh, Dick, what can we do?" "Trust to me and keep a brave heart, my girl. It must come out right at last. Give -me liberty to ask him for you. I will do so tomorrow. What if I am refused! It is the right and proper way for me to do." And thus he urjod her till she finally consented, although she did so with the utmost reluctance. "What is that odd smell in the air?" he asked, with uplifted head. "I have noticed it every time there was the slightest breeze."

"It must be'the old well lather spent so much money on. It gives out a singular smell." "It seemed more like a rank pipe, but it may have come from the well." "I must go now," declared Lizzie in sudden alarm. "I have staid too long already: There Vv-ould be a terrible scrape Were I missed."

He suddenly drew her close and kissed her across the Vails. It was well they were BO absorbed by the delight of the moment thpt they did not observe a suppressed ugitation beyond the scrub bushes that ran down by the lane fence.

When the lovers had departed and disappeared in the darkness, a man arose from behind those bushes. "So my girl meets that young rascal like this, an he makes love to her!" snarled a voice that plainly belonged to Elisha Stone. "Ho smelled this old cob pipe, an that near let 'em know I was here. Well, let him come an ask me for Lizzie! I'll soon put an end to this foolishness!"

He shook his clinched fist toward a distant light that he knew shone from the window of the Bunker place and then moved away toward his own house, savagely chewing the stem of his old cob with his teeth.

Having passed about half the distance to the housfc, he haltod, for a familiar odor had assailed his nostrils. "That darned old well!" he growled wrathfully. "I'd just like to know what makes it smell so!"

He changed his course nfcd approached the spot where he had endeavored to strike water by boring deep into the earth, but had succeeded only in spending a considerable sum of money. As he came nearer the odor became stronger, and when he was quito close to the well he could scarcely endure it. He also noticed something he had never noted before. A strange whistling sound cane from the well. "Well, that thing beats all nater. It's a reg'ler hoodoo! I'll have it plugged np anyhow, an we'll begin on it next Monday.

When he reached the house, ho found his Wife sitting by a dim light in the dining room, her knitting dropped in her lap. In a moment he realized by her attitude that something was troubling her. "What is it, mother?" he asked.

Without a word she took a long envelope from a stand at her elbow and handed it to him. The light showed him the familiar card of his attorney at the upper left hand corner of tho envelope. "How did yon get this?" ho asked, rather huskily, as he ripped open one end and drew forth the document contained within. "Ike Neuman left it as he passed on his way homo from town," she replied, her eyes fastened anxiously on his face.

He read it through without uttering a sound or making a sign. Then he went out into the night once more, and for nearly an hour he was absent. When ho returned, she was sitting just as he left her. I 'Mandy," he said, his voice steady and hard, "I'm beat. The judge has decided there's not enough evidence to reopen the case, an the lawyer can't find ground for a new suit. Jed Bunker has beat me."

Richard Bunker to ask for Lizzie's hand in marriage. Elisha Stone had been holding his feelings in check 6ince receiving the letter from his lawyer, but now the full torrent of his wrath was turned on the young man. "I'll see Lizzie dead before she shall marry a Bunker!" he shouted. "An if you ever meet her down the lane agin I'll 6hoot ye sure as there's a heaven! Get off my land! This is my answer, an you'll find I mean it! You're the son of a scoundrel, an"— "Stop!" came from the young man's lips. "I will go Immediately, but you must not call my father a scoundrel again

HE READ IT THROUGH WITHOUT UTTERING A SOUND.

in my hearing. Some day you will realize you are in the wrong. Good day, sir." The unfortunate lover rode away with dignity, watched out of sight by the trembling object of his affections, who was hidden behind the curtain of an upper window.

Elisha Stone sought to relieve his feelmgs by entering heartily into the celebra

tion he had planned. to be carried out by his two boys. From his little blacksmith 6hop he brought two anvils, and with plenty of powder and fuse he made them boom forth like a cannon, and all day long ho thus thundered defiance from the slope to his neighbor and enemy who lived in the finer house down tho road. The stars and stripes fluttered from a flagstaff he had erected in the yard, and passing people imagined the hearts of the farmer and his family were filled to overflowing with patriotism.

When night came, a considerable number of young people, with not a few older ones, assembled at the Stone farm to wit-

'WELL. THIS HAS CERTAIN BEEN THE GREATEST FOURTH OK JULY." ness the display of fireworks, for it had been reported that Elisha's boys were going to make a regular spread. Every one •bout. emwotlnff the Bunkers, had been 1

GREENFIELD REPCBLICAlN, TIIDESDAY JULY 4 1895?*"* r?:

invited a general way, and, wnne awansing darkness, confectionery, fruit, ice cream and lemenade \vere served in generous quantities.

Elisha was every where, and lie had never before seemed so jolly and sociable. He appeared to be enjoying everything lvke a boy, and the people who had known him as a rather quiet, reserved and sttvm man were astonished at his. manner.

At length the 1-ime for the display of fireworks arrived, and the visitors assembled at the back of the house, where they could sit on a grassy slope and enjoy the spectacle. The boys had carried the box of fireworks down near the hoodoo well, where everything had been prepared for sending them off.

The first rocket sailed into the air with a graceful curve, a cheer breaking from the lips of the spectators as it burst and sent forth many colored balls that floated lightly away and finally faded. Then Elisha, who had slipped away a few moments before, came back and sat down just in time to be on hand when the anvils, which he had loaded with an extra heavy charge, gave a roar that shook the ground and broke a dozen panes of glass in the windows of the house. "Hurrah!" cried tho old farmer, in genuine delight, as he heard the jingle of the glass as it rattled from his windows, accompanied by little screams of terror from the women and girls in the party— "hurrah for the Fourth of July!"

Up into the sky hissed another rocket, and yet another, and then— No one could tell how it came about, but a freshly lighted pinwheel flew from its pivot and went sizzing and spluttering right into the well. The next instant a column of fire shot upward from the mouth of the well with a rushing sound, and the invited spectators clapped their hands with delight, for they fancied Elisha had prepared an amazing and novel surprise for them.

The farmer himself, however, sat staring at this unexpected display in utter bewilderment, and he did not arouso himself until one of his boys, who came running up from the field, shook him by the shoulder, crying: "Father, father, the well's afire!" "Well, what makes her burn?" he asked amazedly. "The old thing smelled bad enough to burn, but"— "Stone," broke in a neighbor, "that looks to me like a burning jet of natural gas! If so, your fortune is made. Your celebration has proved a fortunate one, and your hoodoo well is good as a gold mine."

In the midst of the excitement Jeduthin Bunker appeared and presented himself before Elisha, saying: "Mr. Stone, I have the pleasure of informing you that Noah Jackson has been arrested and is on his way here in custody of a detective. If you do not recover your money, you will see him properly punished." "Jackson—arrested? By a detective? Nho sent a detective arter him?" "I did, sir. I was determined to clear myself of any suspicion in this matter. Here is the dispatch received from my detective notifying me he has secured my man." And the message was placed in Elisha's unsteady fingers. When he had

The Fourth came and brought with it read it by the light of the burning well, ho ™—1— muttered rather dazedly: "Well, this has certain been the greatest

Fourth of July I ever saw in all my born days!".

The "hoodoo well" did prove a gold mine. It was "plugged", to extinguish the fire, and then a syndicate came along and bought the Stone farm for a fabulous sum, after which they proceeded to bore other wells and conduct the gas to town.

Noah Jackson was tried and convicted, which removed the last vestige of suspicion against Bunker from the mind of Elisha, who acknowledged his mistake and gave the consent asked for to the marriage of Dick and Lizzie.

To this day nothing gives Elisha greater delight than to sit wis li a well filled pipe and relate the story of that wonderful Fourth. He has told It a thousand times, but he is just as ready to repeat it today as he was on the second occasion.

Love In a Cottage.

They may talk of love in cottage And bowers of trcllised vine, Of nature bewitchingly simple

And milkmaids half divine They may talk of the pleasure of sleeping In the shade of a spreading tree And a walk in the fields at morning

Ey the side of a footstep free.

But give me a sly flirtation By the light of a cliandclier, With music to play in the pauses

And nobody ever near, Or a seat on a silken sofa, With a glass of pure old wine, And inainmu too blind to discover

Tho small white hand in mine.

Your love in a cottage is hungry, Your vi-'.e is a nest for flies, Your milkmaid shocks the graces,

And simplicity tallcs of pies. You lie down to your shady slumber And wake with a bug in your ear, And your dam scl th:« walks in the morning

Is shod like a mountaineer.

True love is at home on a carpet 'Arid mightily likes his ease, And true love has an eye for a dinner.

And starves beneath shady trees. His wing is the fan of a lady, His foot's an invisible thing, And his arrow is tipped with a jewel

And shot from a silver string. -N. P. Willis

Around the Fireside.

Around the fireside should grow and bloom All human irtues. In its golden light There should by neither selfishness nor gloom,

But all the uin ily be plud and bright For being members of the circle thore. This is the place where love and joy should find A balm or nectar for the heart's despair,

This is the sacred fane for all mankind, Around the fireside.

Around tho fireside should ever be To gladness given, but to sadness dumb. Here should those long departed always see

A haven they may enter when they come Across the nan billows of lliis life. Here should the sin sick sons and daughters cast Life's anchor evermore and quell the strife

Witl: in their hearts, here should they come at, last, Around the fireside.

Around tho fireside God's love should shine, And life should sparkle with the splendid blaze Of duties nobly done and acts divine.

With words of comfort and with hopeful lays, And songs of welcome front the happy throng That breaks the circle of all hopes allied To all good things, knowing no hate nor wrong,

No selfish motives and no sordid pride. Around the fireside.

Around the fireside hearts should grow warm With acts of kindness. As in heaven's clime The sin freed spirit may forget tho storm

That oft assailed it in the olden time, Bo ehould the heart forget its earthly care While round the ever pleasant, cheerful blaze. The houio should be a holy *iot, since there

Is spent tho better purt of life's sweet i£bya, t, Around the fireside.

E. P. Tbayer, Sr., pulled a revolver and threatened lo shoot if anyone insisted on throwiug bricks.

Marshal Scott and Deputy Marshal J. A. Lynam stopped the whole proceedings by making an arrest or two and dispersing the crowd. There were si\eral bruises and cuts, but no setious injuries. While the whole matter was a serious one, there were many amusing incident?, showing how men act when under e*citemei.t.

The lawyers were acting as generals for their respective sides, and like all good generals they were at a good dis tauce, viewing the battle from the win dows of their up-stairs law offices.

Wld Not Show the White Fentlier. Some one, who has not the »nd or nerve to sign bis name, but writes under the non do-plume of "A Witness," cones out in last Friday's Tribune and tries to belittle Marshal Scott in the eyes of people by sayiDg that Scott showed the white feather during the Thayer-Rottman trouble Thursday. If the said "Witness" is ashamed or afraid to put his Dime to his article, he has no business to say "white feather" to any man. Marshal Se tt not only did not thow the "white feather," but was one of the coolest met. in the crowd, and but for him aud his deputy, Bob Lynam, the "disgraceful affair" wouli have ended much more sprious than it did. As soon as that re volver was drawn Marshal Scott went to where the man was and made him put it up, and as for making an arrest, if said "Witness" will investigate the Mayer's docket, he will see that the person who drew the revolver will be properly attenoed to when the proper time come?. The "Wituess" should say no more about "white feather," for what does a per-on do when writing a censorious artie'e ar.d not sign his name?
