MenattRMi the iroce; of gemng acfMtn(e4 with the family doee not get oa very roperottly. Bob is a very uoor maloh from the parental point of view, .and a bitter disappointment to the McLaee. Nothing out Angle's resoluto - character eouhl have extorted the gnnlg- , ig eoiweut whkh their engagement had .at length received. The family uon.fcied, lidM Angie, of her father and mother and two brothers, John and George. Mr. McLane kept hU room, hetnga confirmed invalid. John, strongwilled and arrogant in temper, titled the family with a rol of iron George being kiader teni)ered, but of much lew strength of ekaracter. Angle was Urn enly ntemher of the family whom John ceukl not rule, and she hid earned the point of her engagement againet hi bitter opposition. Mm. McLane was a ni-cre ekttttiecock between John and Angie, receiving an tmpule from one which kusied till the other got hold of her. Joka bad accepted tlte engagement with aa exceedingly bad grace, and made scarcely a decent pretense of concealing from Bob his contempt and hostility, and lifc desire to find any pretext for forcing a quarrel. This was particularly unpleasant and demoralizing to Rob. because the in Sun' to hu own selfreepect by the sense of Uie taeit deceit he vj guilty of to his wig left him ttHlie U meet John's overbearing inleee with the quiet dignity ke would jjtare itked to amme. After sromsr to lxl he lav awake a - comiie of houm thinkuisr over hht amiMrraiiig cireumtances, when he suddenlrleniembered that he had left hie 4teal-iuur on tlte library table down stair. Jumping out of 1h1 ke put on a part of k clotkeH, and, softly opening the door of the room, went across tke hall and down tke stairs to the grouml-iloor. It wa (tine dark, imt he found his wy eaily, having a gonl topographic instinct.

He might have hesitated longer, but at this mo'ment the voice of Angie, crying down to her brothers to be careful, decided him. He oould not face her under such terribly false cireumstancett.and without kk wig. Vainly seeking a safe refuge, he ran round tke apartment like a rat in a trap. He already heard the brothers in tke dining-room picking up the silver laud wondering to find it all there, when, obeying a sudden inspiration, he clambered ujion a lofty bookcase that ran across one end of tlie room, arching above the dining-room door, and reaching within a few feet of the eeiling. In eoldWood lie never oould have scaled it. Lying at full length upon tke top of the bookcase with kin back to tke wall, the bulr of him was still visible from the farther nart mi the room, in case it should occur to his pursuers to look so high. now entered the library, and, peering over the edge of the bookease, Bob recognised with singular sensation the two gentlemen with whom lie 11 au oeen conversing a nine earner m the evening. Then they were arrayed in faultless evening drees, and t heir manner, although jHijiercilious enough, was calm and polished. Now he saw them half dre&ttd, wilk disheveled hair John earning a student's lamp in his left hand and in his right an ugly-looing cane-sword, whh a blade painfully naked, while George held a revolver at full cock. He oould scarcely believe his fortune, when, a moment later, tke two brothers passed again beneath him back into the diuinr-room. r rom there tney went on inrougn me rooms oevoHU, ami me sounu 01 ineir footateps uhkI away entirely.

Mrs. McLane and Angie,having satisfied themselves tlwt the const waa clear, descended to the dining-room, ami a lively discussion of all aspects of the problem eneucd, which was highly edifying to Bob. Then the conversation oecame sun more interesting, as it turned on himself. He heard Mrs. McLane saying; " He must be a hard sleeper, for I knocked several times on his uoor.11 Then one of the brothers jrrunted somethiag contemptuously,and he heard Angie's voice excusing him on the ground that he must be tired after his long journey. "Are you sure you looked every where in the library?" wae Mrs. McLane's next question, at which a cold sweat stood out on Bob's face. He had just 1egun to feel quite comfortable. ' Did you look on top of the bookcase?" It seemed U Bob that he died then, and came to life again to hear John reply, contemptuously : "Over the bookcase? lucre's no room there, and, if tliere were, nobody but a monkey could get up tliere." "There's room enough," persisted Antrfe. "and I have often noticed, when sitting in the library, what a nice hidingplace it would be. What if he should be un there now, and hear what I'm saying?" she added, in an agitated whis per. " nonsense!" saiu .joun. " Well, there is no harm in looking, anyway," saw Airs. .Mci-anc. "Uome along, thetv'gruniuieu.JoBH. " You shall see for vourselves." At this Bob shut his eves, aad turned , .,-, - his face to the wall. The ostrich in stinct i the human instinct of despair. He tried to fly awar from himself, and leave his body there as a derelict. The effort wa deeperate, and seemed almost successful. Hut he eould not quite sev er Ute connection, thouith hit soul ap peered to Imj hovering over liw lwdy, only attached by a single thread but a thread which, alas! would not break A moment after, they ail passe through the door directly Iran oath him and. sio'mc clear to the other end of tke library, stood on tipUie and peered at his hminz-place. There seemeu to be evea in his Imck, which felt their acruti ny. Hut the lamp they carried did sot sumce to bring out his figure clearly. " I'm sure I see something," said An eie, retting uikiii a chair. "It is only the shadbw of the fire light," replied John. " Light the gaa and let us make sure, said Mrs. McLane. George stood up on a ckair under tke chandelier, and lighted one 01 the bum ers. An inarticulate ejaculation fell from every month. A human figure was dis tinutly visible, reehning along the top or the bookcase, with his face towan the wall. The ladies would have forth with run away but for the fact that one door of the room was directly beaeath

the boukeae, and ike other olose to it. Upon Bob's imralyaed sutusea fell the aharn word's of John : " We've got you. Get down ! " He did not move, hut at the summons his soul, with inexpressible reluctance and dhiguat, began to return from the eud of Ua floating thread, and ndakabit the quarters for which it could not quite shake oA' rea)H)aibility. " Get up, or I'll shoot!" aahl George. " Oh, don't shoot him!" cried Mrs. McLane, while Bob, still inotkmlaeti, dimly hoped lie would. " Get up ! " reiterated John ; aad he did set um. Hi own will waa inaetive,

and John's waa the force that movwl hU muscle. Ha turned around ami sat up, his legs dangling over tke edge of tke book-oaae, and his wet, white, wretched face blankly directed toward tke group a moat pitiable figure. "Jump down," said John: "and if you try 10 escape yon wiu miuBob let himself down without regard to how he waa to alight, and iu coasequence was aeverely braised against a chair and tke edge of the book-case. He stood facing the group. His eyes mechanically sought Angle's. What was his surprise not to perceive in her expression of mingled curiosity and fright the slightest sign of recognition! A gin nee showed hint that it was the same with tlie others. John and George evidently supiiosed that they were dealing with an ordinary burglar, and the others were apparently quite aa devoid of suspicion aa to his identity. His wig! He had forsrotton all about it. That ex plained their singular demeanor. The bald man in stockings, trousers ami shirt, caught hiding in the library j after an attempt on the silver, quite naturally failed to recall to their minds i the youth of rather foppish attire and luxurious locks who bade them goodnight a few hours previous. As this fact, and its explanations broke upon Bob's mind, he felt an immense sense of relief, instantly followed by a poignant perception of the inextricable falsity and cruel alwttrditv of his position. He had littlo time to tldnk it over and determine his beet course. John stepped forward, and with the point of his cane-sword motioned him into a corner, thus leaving the way clear to the ladies, who at once hurried into the dining-room, throwing glances of fear and aversion upon Boo as they passed. Angie paused at the doorway and adked : " What are vou going to do with the dreadful man?"" Bob even then wae able to notice that ke had never seen her so ravisliingly beautiful as now, with her golden Imir falling over ker clmrniing rfwAoWfc, while her eves scintillated with excite ment. She would have blushed to have een seen by him in such an undress toilet, but, with an odd feeling of lie'nig double, he perceived, that she now regarded him as she would an animal. 0 it r .1 T 5,1 .... 1 . ueorge ami 1 win nuciiu iu mm You had better go to bed," replied John to her question; and then he sent George after some cord, meanwhile quietly standing in front of Bob with cocked revolver. Bob had not uttered a word. In tlie complex falsity of hie position he could nou inueeu intiier prwt;in;c in minu w resolve on any course, but regarded with a kind of fatuity the extraordinary direction eventj were taking. But when George returned with the rope and ordered him to Hit his hand behind him he t-aicl, m a tone so quiet tiiat it surprised imseu : " Hold on, Mr.McLane: this joke has gone far enough. I am Bobert Withers, at your M:rvice, sum respecimm incline to lie considered in the light of a lwirvlar nr fnrthar." George's jaw dropped with astonish- j ment, and John was scarcely less taken J aback. "Blamed ir he isn't," ejaculated the former, after a moment, in a tone of incredulous conviction, as he recognised at once the voice ami now tke features of Bob; " but Where's your hair?" Bob blushed painfully. " I wear a wig," he replied, " and to night, cominjr down stairs after you were all abed to get my ring, which had left on the table here, I did not fully dross. Going back, it was my luck to stumble over that cursed stand in the other room!" " But what did you hide for?" asked John, sharply. lJob just touched lus iwld bead and re plied : " I heard the ladies up," John pitched the revolver on the sofa and stood passive. Finally lie said, with a sardonic smile: "Mr. Withers, how do you propose to get out of this? Shall I call in the ladies and let you explain? They will presently lie wanting to know wkat we have done with the burglar." " It won't lie necessary, John hero I am!" said a clear voice, with a sharp ring in it that the family had learned to know meant decisive work, and Angie stepped into tke room, her blue eyes flashing with indignation and her lip trembling with scorn, beautiful as a goddess. Bob started up from his abject attitude and stood facing her with the look of a man waiting his doom from the firing-squad. As lie stood there, drawn up to his full height, with just a touch of appeal softening tlte defiance of his expression, it wits a manly face and figure in spite of all. But her brothers received Angle's first attention. "You mean, cowardly fellows!" she said, in tones of concentrated contempt. "I would not have believed that men were so mean! And I am almost as much ashamed of vou, Mr. Withers." she added, turning to Bob, with a softer out yet angry voice. uiu you iiiiiik, sir, that I took you for your beauty? I don't care if you wear forty wigs, or

hoh. xu are aixuiruiy vain, wr," Ske was amiling now. "You ahoukl know that when a woman loves a mau it k off grace, and at of works. Anyhow, John," she added, tnrniag to him, as if eoiitnwtiug his slight figure with Bob' tine physique, "Mr. Withers dottan't wear gitou)dr-iMubi." With that parting shot she disappeared into tke dlnutttg-room, in a moment re-ap-peariag, to say; "Mr. Withers, you may forgive them if you want to. I'm by no means aure that 1 shall. And now go to bed all of you, and don't be keeping us awake," Ajjtle InV Jmrml.

JL Mantatetk Texas Kaaeke. Mr. Skaffer, in 1891, pre-empted 160 acres of land in this county, 011 which he establislied a sheep rancho, The war followed. He made no appreciable progress in his condition until 186fi, when his fortune took a turn. At this time (1366) ho owned 8,000 head of sheep, all of them improved. Tke original stock of 2,000 head he Mirchasedfrom A. Toutant Beauregard, brother of the General. Four years after that he purchased 1,500 ewes of the celebrated George Wilkins Kendall flock; having, in all, introduced 800 liead of ewes and bueks,, costing kirn ffiO a head. Mr. Shaffer' income for 187G may be summed up as follows: Ewes sold, 2,675 at fti,7lt; bucks and wethers sold. 8,859 : wool sold, 82,000 pounds, 10,000; income for 187, 27,675. To maintain his establishment and attend to the sheep requires an out lay of nearly 700 per mouth, trom 25 to ;KJ men are constantly employe. Thelioeks of sheep are divided into 1,900 to each flock, under the care of a jnuUore, and over every three jmniores is a baceri), or overseer, having that particular three under his especial care. Over all tlie Intcerm is a head man . Two large mule teams are constantly engaged hauling supplies, and in the storehouse of tlie rancho is a stock sufficient to start on ordinary country store. Of ewes, bucks and lambs he has now 16,000 head, less about 250, valued at about 75,000. A few years ago, foneeing that a large tract of land would soon be necessary to miiiitaiu his rapidly growitur flocks, ami afford never-failingr pas turage, when prices were comparatively low he commenced the purehaso of what has since swelled into a princely domain, composed of land admirably adapted for his purpose, and watered by sue or seven different streams, chief among which are the A git a Dulee, San Fernando and Lagarto. ft'liis tract now contains 60,000 acres of land. With the fence completed, which he has now uuder way, these acres will not be worth rellinir nearly iu the middle, and, in addition to a very comfortable dwelling-house, he has a stone warehouse for tke storage of wool, a large stable, a dozen or more out-buildings for sen-ants, etc. Three or four immense cisterns supply water for the house, and near the skeep pen is a large wind-mill and tank, drawing a supply from a well eighty-one feet deep.

The full name of this organization U " The International Working Men's Assoeiation," and iu principles and regulations are neither secret nor unknown. It originated at tlte time of the Polish in. surrection of 1868, and the first general meeting was held iu BeptcmlHu', lStil, It took, place in London, at .St. Martin's Hall, was attended by working men of nearly every F.uroean count it, ami Was presided ovir by Prof, fid ward Spencer Beesley. It was soon after this meeting that Dr. Karl Mnr.v Imhhuiic tliu leading spirit of the association. Tlie first congress was held at Genovu ;u 18!0, when rales propared by Dr. Marx were adopted, and the association was put in working order. Its object was declared to lie, in general terms, " to afford a central medium of coniniiinica. tion and eo-ojieratioii between working men's societies existing in different countries and aiming nt the same cud, viz; the protection and advancement and complete emancipation of the workins classes," This congress discussed the question) of the length of the working day, of juvenlle labor, of co-operative unions, and of a statistical inquiry into the condition of the working classes, in Mich :i manner as to attract the attention of the European Governments, which generally assumed attitudes of hostility to! ward the association ; but it grow and flourished, and its progress was accotn pained by notable strikes. In 1807 occurred the strike of the bronze workers of Paris and the groat strike of the Iin. don tailors. The second congress was held at Iausanae in 187, amf the third at Brussels in 18C8, the last named being the greatest success of the association. Thereafter and until the beginning of the Franco-German war formidable strikes occurred all over Europe. Among these are named the cotton spianers' strike at Rouen; the St. Etiennu affair, in which more than fifty workingmen were killed by the troops'; the strike at Le Creuzot; the monster disturlmnce at Vienna, in which more than 50,000 men took jai t and were dispersed by military force. Tlie fourth eongrcss was held at Bask in 1B6U, snd an American delegate wjm present. 1 he afth would have Imui hehl 111 Paris in 1870, but was prevented by the war, which put au end to the InternulhmiU for a time, and it was only heard from in its defense of the Paris commune. Its downfall was complect by the withdrawal of Dr. Marx from the association. Its tlieories were not abandoned, however, and kcal Organizations have been maintained, five years of aHMiciatton having made the various branches of trades-unions acquainted awaj and must give place to associated labor, which is to be developed to national dimensions and fostered by national means. No man has a right to cull any thing his own which he has not produced by his own labor." The Ih)tility of these theories to society as at t reseat organised does not need to lc enlarged upon. SI.
