PLUCK AND LUCK.
How a Young Irish Lad Became an American Hero.
HEN the first mutterings of the Revolution were heard in this country, they awakened an echo on the other side of tho Atlantic, and that echo
sometimes carried with it a conviction of the justico of our cause and our right to revolt. Such was its tone when it reached the little hamlet in Ireland wherein dwelt Matthew Lyon, a stripling yet in his teens.
An old sea captain from America was a guest in the Lyons' home, in which Matthew was not happy with his stepmother and from which he had frequently begged his father to let him depart. He listened day after day to the wonderful tales of the old salt, tales told with a sea captain's coloring, that would have made the story of Sindbad, the sailor, tame in comparison.
The more he listened the more restless he grew, and finally he determined that he would go to America. As the captain would not take him without tho consent of his father, and that consent could not be obtained, he bided his time, and the night the old captain sailed away Matthew Lyon shipped as a stowaway.
Not until he was too far out to be returned did he reveal himsolf to the captain, who was very angry and swore all tho oaths in the sea captain's vocabulary, declaring that he would return him by the first boat that sailed on their arrival in America. "Do you know," he said, "that you will bo sold as a vagrant over there if you land without money or friends?"
This did not frighten the determined boy, who said he was willing to be sold— anything to get there.
The vessel landed in Boston harbor. Governor Chittenden met tho captain, who was a personal friend, the day after the arrival. The captain told him of the daring little stowaway, niuftuy agreed to go through the form of a mock sale. The boy took his stand upon the sale block, and the bidding commenced. After a lively contest he was knockcd down to Governor Chittenden for a pair of bulls.
He went homo with his purchaser, made himself generally useful and soon found such favor in the eyes of his master that the latter took him into his office, where ho commenced the study of law. He was soon an interested participator in the Boston tea party and enrolled himself with the "Green Mountain Boys," under command of Ethan Allen, and became as true a patriot, as tenacious of the rights of Vermont and aggressive to those of New Hampshire and New York, as if he hat! been born and bred upon the soil of the Green Mountain State.
But soon there loomed up a stumbling block in the way of Matthew's patriotism. His warm, young Irish heart went out toward the pretty daughter of his benefactor. She did not scorn tho advances of the young patriot, but learned to look with eagerness to the surreptitious meetings, when Matthew would steal away from camp to get a look at her pretty face. Governor Chittenden had more ambitious views in regard to his daughter and frowned upon this intimacy.
After tho battle of Ticondcroga the continental congress at Philadelphia began vigorously preparing for war, and when George Washington was made commander in chief of the army Matthew Lyon found himself a continental soldier, having won his spurs at Lexington a month previous.
But at the close of the war he returned to Vermont and became associated in the law firm of Governor Chittenden, whose daughter he soon afterward married.
So steadily did this young enthusiast win his way into the hearts of the people that he was sent to represent them in the continental congress. While serving in this capacity he fought the "alien and sedition" bill and once in the heat of argument spat in tho face of his opponent, a man of the name of Fitzgerald, I think. For this he was arrested, and refusing bail was imprisoned. While in prison he was again chosen to represent his adopted state in congress.
Subsequently ho was sent by the government to Arkansas to settle some Indian disturbances in that locality. Finally he drifted to Kentucky, or "Fir.castle county," as it was then known. Here he joined forces with Daniel Boone and became an Indian fighter, his love of adventure finding in this pastime a fitting means for its accomplishment. I
A remnant of the fort built by Boone and himself is still standing at the junction of the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers. The huge stono chimney, large enough to roast two or three oxen in at one time, forms the foundation for a house which ho afterward built and in which he lived when he first settled in Kentucky. This house is one of the historical spots in tho Bluo Grass State, and many tourists annually visit it. The little three oornered rooms, queer chimney places and porthole windows are reminders of the time when Kentucky was known as the "dark and bloody ground."
From that state Matthew Lyon was also sent to congress, and often when hot in debate ho would cry out, "By the bulls that bought me!" Numbersof hisdescendants are scattered throughout Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia, all of whom have been more or less prominent in public affairs. F. G. DE F.
The Old Time Way.
The land is full of children—not a day older than their grandparents were at the same age—to whom the firecracker is an unmixed joy and the sky rocket an awe inspiring delight. It may bo a little dangerous to indulge the fancies of these youthful patriots, but they are as much entitled to their day of hazardous sport as their parents and grandparents before them and are quite as likely to live through it. Old John Adams' idea of a Fourth of July is not so far wrong as some timid souls have come to regard it, and if the little extra risk is inet by a good deal extra care the present generation will enjoy and survive an old fashioned Fourth quite as well as thdir ancestors.

Pinwheels and Chasers.
The old fashioned "chasers," tho kind that used to make the girls giggle and scream and scold their little brothers 50 yui^'s ago, are still in tho ring and are as erratic in their movements as ever. Next to a pinwheel the chaser is close to the heart of the American small boy. When he outgrows thejdnwheel and chaser, tho tail feathers will drop from the proud bird of freedom, and Uncle Sam will wear derby hat. •V-f:-'

ON THE FOURTH.
Love, Romance aud Why He WM Never Married. Jack sat on tho piazza smoking a cigar. I joined him. A parcel of mothers were gathered together in the front yard watching their respective kids, five of whom belonged to Jack. They were making a perfect racket. Pinwheels swished against the blackened gateposts, powder crackers spit and snapped, skyrockets banged through the air, and the youngsters squealed with delight. Now and then a frightened "Oh I" from one of the mothers could bo heard above the din. "What are you laughiUg at, Pete?" said Jack as I threw my head back and gavcvent to the most uproarious laughter. "Well, to tell the truth," said I to iny innocent companion, "I was thinking of a Fourth of July experience I once had with an auburn haired girl," and I again laughed. ''Fire away," said Jack very appropriately. "Well, you sec," answered I, "a new girl came to visit my cousin Jane. 'I was completely gone in half an hour after the introduction. I invited her to go sailing on the night of tho glorious Fourth. A fine lunch I stowed away in tflte bow of the boat. Roman candles and skyrockets lay cuddled together in the stern, and powder crackers by the package were there. That evening arrived. Opposite me in tho stanch Clarissa sat the witching girl. Her eyes were bright, her cheeks pink, and her intoxicating auburn bang would have knocked an artist dead on the spot. After an hour or so of small talk verging awfully near the will you be mine period I thought I would frighten her just a little bit, so that I might console and pet her afterward, so I set off a firecracker under the seat on which she was sitting. Gloriana Johnson 1 With a noise like a rebel yell she shot up two feet in the air, biaslike, and dropped into the water with a thud that denationalized my soul. She arose to the surface. I made a dive for her and just reached her hair. I clutched it, and the struggling owner dropped again to the bottom, leaving the wig in my hand. I soon again observed an object shining in the moonlight, and I grabbed her just in time. I hauled her into the boat and gave her my handkerchief with which to mop her face. She clapped it on her head in a jiffy and tied it under her chin. I then flipped the wig toward her. It lauded on the overturned lunclibox. Such a mess! Divorced slices of bread ii«d ham lay strewn in the bottom of the much bedraggled Clarissa. Cookies svyollen to twice their normal Hize decorated the sides of tho sarsaparilla bottles. The cdam cheese that I prided myself on rolled hither and thither among tho other stuff like something demented. Not a word WJVS spoken between us. Mutually shocked, we sat liko mummies. I landed her at the boathouse, and as sho stepped upon the boai-ds sho turned and said, 'For heaven's sake, Mr. Waterman, if you have any charity in your heart, any honor in your soul, swear that you will never divulge what has happened this evening.' She looked so drizzly, faded out and woebegone I promised faithfully never to speak of it to a human soul, and of course I never have."
Jack looked at me curiously for a moment, then he said: "My, my, that's the reason, then, you'd never get married!"
He Knew.
