• Jean Snvart had work oil for three year* in the vineyard of Michael Prony, near E|>ernay, in Olininpagno, France. Whence ho came nolaidy know, nml ho never opened hia moutii on the subject. Hn was not bright, butflrc was a steady worker and minded his own business. One day he accidentally pushed a boy into the Hirer Marne, and Prony grew mail amt kicked him out. Jean went off and traveled to a small town called La Fere. He turned down n shady lane and went over n fence to look for a place to sleep. He poshed hi* way through briers and underwood until he reached a pathway, which he followed, op the hill. Hearing footsteps behind him. he stepped aside am! crouched iu the bushes. A man and woman walked by. talking earnestly in Jow tones. It was too dark for Jean to *ee them distinctly. Soon after they hi<d passed they stopped and continued to talk. Presently there was the hark of a dog. Jean looked out cautiously, for he was afraid of dog*. He saw a big animal leaping around the man and woman. The woman was playfully beating him off with her handkerchief and saying: “Down. Prince, down!" The dog came bounding toward Jean with something white in his mouth. He stopped within ten feet of where Jean was, and, lieghn to shake what lie had in his mouth and paw it Then he bounded hack to the man and woman, and Jean Heard the woman say: „ “What hare you done w ith hiy handkerchief, Ton wickisl dog* ‘ There was a lung, shrill whistle. The dog started off, and the man and • woman hastily separated, the man turning into the bush ami instantly - vanishing.' ' ‘ “ Jean lay still for a few minutes, then he ventured from his hiding-place and looked around. No one was near; not ' a sound ers* to bo heard. Wight *iu front of him lay the white object which the dog had carried in hi* month. Jean lifted it and found it was a handkerchief. lie put it in his popket and walked in the direction which the woman had taken. When he reached the summit of the hilt, he saw a house aiming trees. Ho came to a road and a wall which shut off the ground of the house from the highway. There was a huge iron gate! Jean walked toward it cautiously. 11c was about to look through the liars when he was start led by a voice close at hand, saying: “What would you have, friendJean in voluntarily % took off hi* cap ami turned to wh^ni*e the voice came. Then, for the first time, he saw a man leaning against one of yhr stone pillars of the gate. By his speech Jean could tell he was a gentleman, so, as related, he took oft his hat and said: ‘■Good evening. Monsieur: I am a poor traveler looking for work." After questioning Jean further, the gentleman said: -Come with me and I will give you n place where vou »»y sleep for the

Dight" Jean fallowed Una gentleman through the gate up to the house. and into a ham two hundred raids heyflhd it. - ••Now,’1* said the gentleman, “close the door and be still and nothing will harm you until the morning.” Jean lay down upon a heap of straw and watched the stars, which he could see through a bole in the roof. Presently the door opened, and two persons entered. Jean was in the far corner, and lay very quiet. ••I wouldn't have had niy uncle see you with me to-night for any thing,” said a woman's voice, which Jean <instantly reeogniied as the one he bad ,tioa with a man an heard in com hour before. ••Well,’' the man replied, "there is lobe an end to this at once, a d I'm glad yon have made up your minid to ••My God!" exclaimed the woman; ‘•here it some one coming with a light' )t is my ancle, a* I live! What shall we do?” - ••Hold !” the mnn said, in a low tone; ••he may not be coming this way.’ He is—Heaven! here, quick! Get in behind the winnowing-machinc which stands right here. Now. you rest right there, %nd I’ll use this opportunity, for wc shall never have another like it" A man posted open the door. He carried in one hand an old-fasMoned bom lantern and in the other a tin can. He laid down the lantern and was in the act of straightening himself, when Jean saw the already described man come out of the darkness, step np behind him and plunge a knife into his back. The wounded man fell beadlong, without a groan. , Horror-stricken, Jean saw the man —and noted every feature as he gated —who had struck the blow, examine bis victim with the aid of the lantern.. Then he drey the knife from the Wound, and going to the end of the Hum, close to where Jean lay, he thrust tmk weapon into a hole by the side of tbs Jamb of a window. Jean distinctly heard the knife rattle as it dropped a Then the man to the body of Monsieur TooiU<

Then the men and woman qaitted the placed having first extinguished the lantern, which they left upon the floor. Jean, summoning all his courage, arose, moved round the spot where he knew the murdered man lay and so get to the door. Then he made Us escape, and by daylight was twenty miles away toward Troyes. Monsieur Tontay inherited a handsome property near La Fere, from his father, whose only child he was. He married early, but his choice was not a wise one, for, after the couple had lived together two years, Madame Tontay eloped with Monsieur Jarentc, who Was old enough to be her father, and had a wife and family to l>o«t- The pair went to reside on an estate owned by Jarente at Lussac. in Poitou, and Madame Jarente and her family continued to live at Villenare, a few railesfroni La Fere. — After a lapse of some Tcars.Monsieur Tontay brought to his homo a niece. Marguerite Tontay. He virtually adopted her and educated her as though she had been his own child. When she attained womanhood his chagrin and disappointment may be imagined when he discovered that she was receiving in secret the attentions of Louis Jarente, the son of the man who hail wrought him an irreparable wrong. Kxpostulations and threats were alike vain to prevent the meeting of the lovers, and finally Monsieur Tontay assured Marguerite that in case of her continued disobedience she should never inherit a sou of his property. For a time she simulated compliance with her uncle’s wishes and professed to have broken off her relations with

Louis Jsreutc. Her uncle, however, unexpectedly discovered that she was only deceiving him, and he ' secretly ■ began negotiations for the sale of h.is est'to, intending to qiiit the neighborhood and remove to Paris to reside in the family of a younger sister. Monsieur Tnntay had consulted Gervais, a notary of La Fere; who had procured a purchaser for the estate, and the deeds were in course of preparation. It happened that Frederic Gervais, the notary’s son, came from Paris on a visit to his father, and was thrown into the society of Louis Jarente. They became intimate,cand Louis communicated to Frederic his relations with Monsieur Tout ay. One day Frederic, in his father’s temporary absence, saw the deeds in preparation for the sale of Monsieur Toutay’s property, and communicated the fact to Louis. The latter at once (•included that Monsieur Tontav’s object was to disinherit Marguerite, and lie s|>eedily communicated to her his suspicions. , The situation was urgent Louis was poor; but if Marguerite was to inherit her uncle's property she would be wealthy. It did not take long for Louis to convince Marguerite that it was absolutely necessary that something should be done at once to prevent tty impending ruin that threatened both. Only one thing could jmvent it—the removal, and that speedily —of Mons. Tontay. Finally, on the morning of Aupist 16, 1H47? Mons, Tontay told Marguerite that "he was selling his property and was about to remove to Paris, and that hp would make her au allowance of three thonsaml francs a year, and she might choose her own residence. He upbraided her with her deception and ingratitude, and declared that he would do nothing for her beyond what he had said. The «aine day Marguerite met Louis, and sink was on her way home when they overtook Jean Savart. The appearance of the «log notified them of' the fact that Monsieur Tohtav must lie outside the grounds, and hence the hurried parting to meet again at a later hour. At that second meeting the death of Monsieur Tontay was agreed upon, and poison was to jie the means by which he was to lie removed. They retired to the barn, where they hail frequently met before, and with what happened there the reader i* already acquainted. When Monsieur Tontay was found murdered in the barn next morning the greatest consternation prevailed in the neigblmrhood. Such a crime hail never been known there within the memory of the oldest inhabitant. Marie Petel, the cook, testified that the night before her master came to her and said that he had pul a miserable tramp into the barn to sleep, and bade her make a npt of good soup for the man. She diireso, and Monsieur Tontay, with his own hands, carried the pottage in a can to the barn. It was the tramp who had murdered his benefactor! Could there be any doubt about it? Poor, generous, kindhearted Monsieur Tontay had been murdered by the man to whom he was doiug an act of kindness. He had been robbed? Nobody could say, for nodody knew what money Monsieur car

nro «ixhii nun. The trump was the mat« anyhow, ami the officer* of justice were speedily after him. But they failed to find him. As for Jean, he traveled oh, doing odd jobs here hnd there, until, early the following spring, he found himself at Poitou By one of these coincidences which often occur, he matte his way to Lessee, where, jt. msy be remembered. Monsieur Jaretjto and the faithless wife of Monsieur Tontay resided. Of course, the story of the murder had .reached them, and had excited in even them feelings of horror and vengeance. Jean, as his custom was on reaching a new neighborhood, hid in the woods, and ventured abroad with care until he saw the character of the people around. On quitting the employ of Plony, at Epcrnay. he had received a good round sum which was duo hint for wages. This money he had carefully hoarded, using uo more of it than was absolutely necessary. Latterly he had carried it wrapped in the handkerchief which the dog had snatched from the hand of Marguerite Tontay. on the evening when Jean hid from them as they passed along the pathway leading up to Monsieur Tontay’s dwelling. On the evening when he reached Lossae, Jean sought out in the wood a hiding place for his money, and for that purpose selected the hollow in a fork of a large tree which grew near the edge of a coppice. It so happened that that day Monsieur Jarente was expecting two friends to breakfast from Chanrigny, and they were to take the road along the bank of the river Vienne. He wen* to the bill on which the coppice w** situated to flee whether there was any signs of his expected guests, as from that spot the road was distinctly risible for several miles. As be reclined on the bank by the side of the cowries hs heard footsteps.

and. glancing op cautiously, ha saw a roughly-dressed man approach a tall tree near by, and, after looking this way and that, deposit something in the fork of the tree, standing upon tiptoe to do so. Then the man hastily retired and Monsieur Jarente saw him creep along the side of the coppice down toward the Tillage. Monsieur Jarento’s curiosity was excited and he went to the tr$e to see what the man had placed there. He drew forth a small handle which he discovered contained money. An old handkerchief, of fine texture, covered the treasure. Monsieur Jarente untied the knots, and, observing a name in one corner of the handkerchief, examined it closely. His amazement was extreme when ho read without difficulty, in a neat, plain hand, the name “Marguerite Tontay." In an instant he associated- the handkerchief and the man with the murder of Monsieur Ton lay. Replacing the bundle he hastened homeward and informed Madaine Tontav of what he had discovered. They talked over the affair and reached the conclusion that this must be the tramp who had assassinated Monsieur Tontay.and the handkerchief and money had both come from the person of the murdered man. Monsieur Jnrenete at once communicated to a constable the facts narrated above, and two officers were placed in hiding to secure the man when he returned for the bundle. At three o’clock in the afternoon Jean crept np toward the coppice, and had just reached up and secured the treasure when he was ‘seized by the officers. His fright was so great that he temporarily lost consciousness. When his faculties were restored he was told that he was suspwted of the murder of Monsieur Tontay at Lc Fare several months previous. Ho denied the crime, and told what was considered an incoherent and improbable story about his having wen another jwrsoU commit the deed.

Alter ute usual lormaime-s, ocaii was transferred to the town of Vitrr, in Champaigns, There he narrated with absolute particularity the facts as kuown to the reader, and distinctly identified Louis Jarente and Marguerite Tontay. The story of the finding of tile handkerchief was confirmed iu a remarkable way, for two of Monsieur Tontay’s domestics testified that Marguerite told them the same evening ol her handkerchief having been snatched from her by her uncle’s dog, and ol having failed to recover it, t It was hanl to believe that Louis Jarente and Marguerite would engage in such a dreadful conspiracy against the life of Monseur Tontay, and the authorities were loath to aet. But Jeau stublcnly remembered another fact, a most important one, “After the man had stabbed the other,” said Jean, “he drew the knife out of the back. Then he came toward that part of the barn where 1 was lying and thrust the knife into the wall close by the window-port. X heard it drop down.” Jean was taken to the barn and he pointed out the place into which the knife was thrust. The casement was worn away, and there, sure enough, was a hole in the woodwork. - The half-rotten wood was speedily removed, and the knife was found. It was identified beyond a doubt as the property of Louis Jarente. Louis and Marguerite were convicted of the crime, and Louis was sentenced to imprisonment for life. Marguerite was imprisoned for one year. And so Monsieur Jarente became the instrument^owonvict his own son of a dreadful Cnincnnd t > avenge the death of the man .whom he had so cruelly wronged. — Cincinnati Enquirer. THE .CABBAgT MAGGOT. Am Emulsion Which Proved fatal to AU the Parasites that It Touches!. Early in June the root* of cabbage qjtd cauliflower plants were found to be invested with the cabbage maggot. The attack was very severe, anti, for a time, it seemed that the crop would be destroyed. On Juno IS, forty-three maggots were found upon or within the root of a single plant. We made applications of the kerosene emulsion to the toots by removing a little earth about the plant, pour.ng in the emulsion and replacing the earth. An ounce of the Standard emulsion (four pounds common yellow hard soap, one gallon kerosene antf one gallon water), dissolved in one pint of soft water, repeatedly applied, appeared to have no effect on the maggots. Remembering the experience of 1.883, we feared to use a stronger emulsion. Prof. A. J. Cook's experiments at the Michigan Agricultural College indicate that there is little danger of making the emulsion so strong as to injure the roots. He writes ns that he used an emulsion consisting of one quart soft soap, ouo gallon water and one quart kerosene, about the roots of cabbage plants without any harm resulting. He adds that the emulsion of onehalf this strength proved fatal to all the maggots that it touched. He also used gas lime with ex. client results. We tried a mixture of pulverised earth and morcurv, after the manner that has been recommended in California for phylloxera, placing a little of the mixture about the plants. This seemed to have a beneficial influence, but was not an entire success. We found some dead maggots in the plants treated and many of the worms appeared to have left, but we also fonnd some stive, in immediate contact with the mixture. — A'. Y. Experiment Station.

Sight and Smoking. Smoker* will not believe what a veteran tobacco dealer told mc.the othei day, and that was that not one of them could tell, by the sense of taste, unaided by that of sight when a cigar or pipeful of tobacco was drawing nicely ot was entirely out In other words, a smoker, by closing his eyes, could not tell whether his cigar was lighted ot was eat. Xhis fact incredible at first thought he said, waa brought to Ins immediate notice by watching a blind man. who was a great smoker, smoke, or at least attempt to smoke, bis pipe. The blind smoker never knew when the pipe was lighted until he placed his finger over the bowl and felt 'lie heat of the burning tobacco. Many times he puffed away at the pipe, filled, of course, with tobacco, enjoying it apparently as well as when emitting puffs of smoke, although not the trace of a fire was to be found in the bowl, and not a particle of smoke either entered his mouth or was expelled therefrom. If nay one doubts the correctness of this assertion let him try te light a cigar or pipe while his eyes art blindfolded.—Chicago Journal. * I i.l" iW# ff »■ ..- —More than four-sevenths of all th« coffee used in the United States * “Rio.”

The pt^oett to a citxen of Hew Heron of more than half a million of dollar* under remarkable circumetances it reported la the Hew Heron Stgidtr, which ronohee for the truth of the story. Thet Journal says thet at the begtnninir of the clril war a weaity Southern grocer, who had recently taken hU young book-keeper into partnership, fearing that hie property would he confiscated, decided to go North. He told the book-keeper to use the property, valued at nbout WOO,000, as he thought beat, and that be would reply upin the bookkeeper’s honor for a settlement at some future time. The merchant then went. North and settled in New Huron. He engaged in business and prospered. There seemed but little probability of the property he had left behind him in the South surTiving the convulsion of the war, and he made no inquiry nbout It for some yeara@aftor peace was proclaimed. Ultimately, however, a friend, p well-known lawyer in New Haven, was going South, and the merchant requested him to investigate, and collect if there was any thing to collect. A correspondence with the book-keeper at the South vras thus opened up, and the Utter forwarded en acknowledgment of the claim, and! an inventory shewing his indebtedness to his former employer to be HWS.ODO, and expressed hie desire to return the property, but requested time to perfect bis arrangements. He began remitting several year* ago, and recently forwarded the last payment, including Interest, thus wiping out n debt of honor. Advice la a Pleasant Uarh. It U said that Bishop Fowler, of the Methodist Church, once gave some advice to a conference congregation in this fashion: “Don’t sey any thing against the man who Is to com: after you. A minister who didn’t b’sr this in mind was asked by his parishioners what kind of a man his successor was. Oh, brother —— is a good m in, but’Butwhatt If there’s anything wrong that is just what we want to know. Now tell us what’s the matter.’ 'Well, Brother-is a good man, but the fact Is. brethren, he parts hie hair io the middto.’ ‘We won’t have him. Wo don’t went e dude. Conference mustn't send him.’ The appointed Sunday arrived, and with it tho dude minister. As he walked up the eisle e broad grin overspread the faces In the rear teats. By the time he reached the pulpit the congregation broke out into a roarof laughter. The minister was bald.” *
