NEBLITT

[Continued from Sixth Page

to bis home.' Bot still I lay grovelling before Iter, for I dareent look ner in the holy face, Her color had oome back. and she stood among us looking scared and scarlet aa sbe'd fly.

Then one of the' boys he spoke np compassionate and told her of me the state tbat I was in, and the consequences when I oome oat of it, and that I bad no wife nor daughter, and no home bat the boarding bouse and tbe yellow dog as bad bang around me ever since. 'It is a bard case,' said this chap, 'and the landlady she don't like him, nor yet the dog. Jobbs feeds the dog.'

AndT so he did, I'll say as much for him. And be was so tickled, for be thought sbe'd come to talk religion to him, tbat be dusted off a chair for her, and asked Ram where was his manners, hulking around in ber way.

And then, as I lay there, she looked around again upon us all—but she wouldn't take the chair—and says: 'Is there anyone here who will help me take this poor man to a place where he can be properly? cared fjr I will find tbe place,' said she.

So tbe chap I spoke of he volunteered. And she walked beside us. And we went out into the fresh, falling snow. And tbe yellow dog went too. But she patted bim upon tbe bead.

But I didn't understand till I'd got there, where she'd took me to. I'll tell you.

It is a living fact. It is as true as Heaven. It's Just as mucb perplexing and mysterious to tbe mina. Sir, she took me to ber own house—she did that little—delicate—white—and me so's I was, just off from Jobbses floor.

Tbecbap I spoke of, be bung round and hesitated a spell as if there was something on his mind he'd ought in common nonesty to warn her of. And I seemed to hear bim say: 'You'd ought to know, martn, tbe state he's in. You'd ought to onderstand wkat it means. It means a .case of delirium tre-men-jous before to-morrow morning on your hands, marm.' ,'Yes,' she says,'I know. I understand.'

And be couldn't stir nor change ber. And she took me in. But I reckon she sent for Cosset, being as it needed a man to bold me for a day or two and Mrs. Cosset she came off and on and tbe young woman was there. Mostly I remember seeing tbe young woman, so fur's I remember of it, anyhow those first few days. She took a sight of pains, the young woman did, and bnng around me and nussed me up.

Sir, she kept me for three mortal weeks, she did, Heavon bless her, true as you and me are standing here agin this fence, she kept me, crazy and disgraced, and onclean and ravin'—she kept me in tbat little quiet holy house of her'n, along with herself and tbe young woman ana the little girl, till I was over it.

She »ent for her doctor to doctor me. But when I wondered how I was to pay his bill, she said it was no matter. She brought me down into ber parlor to set among the pictures and tbe books, against the sun, before tbe fire. And I sat and see ber passing in and out as once I'd thought of. And I heard ber voice a bushing to her little girl. And I knew tbat I was safe and sheltered in. And I seta storln'strength to ondertake to be a better man.

But she didn't talk to me, not a great deal to sarmonlze, only to amuse me, till 1 got able to bo out. And first she trusted me to saw some wood. And then I carried some apples down tbe silent, sir, and Ram be buns bis head. Jobbs took off his bat. But I lay grovelling by the peanut counter on the grouud. And then she spoke. •Is Mr. Neblitt here?' says she, 'I've come to find bim If I can. I want bim to leave this place. It's no place for a

fer

oor

man that had begun to lead a bet* life,' says sho, 'I want to take him bulk-head for her. Then one day she sent me to Charles Henry's on an errand, but tbe young woman was going as far as tbe Methodist Church, so she went too. Next time she trusted me alone. And once she went herself.

And so it went till I sot pretty strongv But I couldn't say mucn to her to bless her. And, sir. when I remembered me of what bad Happened into Jobbses— I and ol the drunken words I'd spoke to drag ber holy name wcrost that mire—I was as standing still as them born deaf and dumb.

If there's anything wuss in hell than what I underwent in thinking of It, I'd like to see It, sir, that's all. Talk about fire, brimstone, smoke, and lakes and that. I don't want no other scorch.

And me beneath her roof—a lady's roof—cared for and sheltered in, and nussed, and with tbe chance to look up any hour, if I would, and see her eyes bent towards me, and tbe smileshe had.

You're right, sir, be wouldn't a been wuth savins, the man wouldn't, as could go back to tbe mud after a chance like that, may God do so to mq, and more also, if evertI do, so help me Him and Her I

One day I know I says to her, foir I'd been thinking of it over, to wonder what odged her on to dojit. fit cant be for no profit nor no stlfisb reason tbat I oan get bold of it must be for humanity's sake,' says I.

But sho come up to me, and said quite soft: 'Call it for Christ's sake, Mr. Neblitt,' says she.

Now I've thought a sight about that tHmco. For Christ's sake. She said for Christ's sake. Well, if that was it—but there's folks that holds us at arms length aud never steps beeide a poor up-strug-gllti' ainnerso much as to speak to him aeroet the street—aud they're what you call Christiana too, you see. If their way is Christ's way, why I should take it her'n wasn't. And if hern'n is I take it their's ain't. So there It la. I'm a iguorant, onreligiuue man, sir, but when was to her house that time, I read in the Testament one day a piece, one snnny day while she was Kind a* Gardenin in the parlor with her young ones. Soema to me her way is more like his*n. At all events I'll bet on her'n, however that may be. 80 at fast, air, It come Christmas time, and on Christmas eve she bad a party for her little girl. The young woman and I —her name was Jinny,—Jinny and I, we carried the oysters In, and the cake and things.

But after the folks bad gone, and the young one was in bed, I went and wandered about a spell through the kitchen and tbe room abe'd gin me. A warm room, sir I wasn't used to having a warm room in the winter time,—ana it had patchwork on tbe bnrean of a blue color, and a picture, and a looking glass, too and Jinny kept it very tidy for me.

I felt toneeome and down-hearted that night for I knew that I must' go, and 1 hadu't nobody to so Ml, nor yet to go with, in all the world, si^-only the yel

low dog tbat sbe'd been so considerate of and let him sleep in tbe woodshed all that while.

And while I set there beside tbe kitchen fire, the young woman come oat. Jinny come oat. It was Christmas eye. I b'lieve, tbat Jinny come to me, and mid 'Ain't yon lonesome/ says she, *settin' all alone?' 'I'm going to tbe boarding boose tomorrow,' says I, 'I've plagued ber long enough.' •Well!' ssys Jinny. 'Well,' says And then we come to a halt. 'How many years,' asks Jinny, ^has it been since your wife died, Mr. Neblitt?' 'Don't talk to me about my wife!' says I, for I thought it strange in Jinny. I wondered if tba girl was sparking she was usually so modest, and I felt no call in that way. But the young woman she went on without seeming to take any notice: 'And your children,' says sbe—'did all

rour die, too, and leave yoayon—' and there tbe young worn an begun to sob for sympathy,—'all alone in the world, poor man,' says Jinny 'all alone with none to claim you on a Christmas day!' says Jinny. 'All alone,' says I, fori was sot wouldn't cry over it, 'only the yellow dog,—and Her we feave behind ns in thia house. We're going now, the dog and me, to undertake to be better men. because of Her. Don't forget us, Jinny,' says I, 'and don't cry!'

Now, sir, tbat very minnte,aa I set by the kitchen fire, saying, 'Don't cry, Jin' ny!' this happened: The ycung woman come np ana put her hand upon my arms, and says ahe: 'Father?' Like that 'father?' •O my God 1' says I. "&L •It's true,' says Jinny. 'It's true, true, true! And we knew it from the first. For she took me seven years ago. But sbe wouldn't let on when she found you out. 'Wait till he's earned a daughter,' says she to me 'wait, Jinny, till he's fit,' says she. 'O father, father, father!' says Jinny. Just like that.

Well, sir, it's a curious story, but a true I won't bother you to tell you any more I've talked a ions spell. But it was all as Jinny said, and they explained to me bow She'd took her from a County bouse and cared for her, and how they planned between 'em to save me, sir, when fust they come to live our way and heerd my name.

It was my daughter, sir. I hadn't seen ber since she was two years old. It was my little girl.

And, sir, she let me stay. She wanted a man about the bouse for many things, she said, in odd hours after mills were out, and for feeling safer in the night time, and for errands in wet weather. She let us take tbe Land fix it up, me and Jinny,—the room with the blue bureau and Jinny's room, and a cook room of our own, where we have our meals together that we get ourselves, for to give ns the feeling of a home to our two solves, sbe says,—aud tke yellow dog besides.

I never had to go out from the blessin' of ber presence, sir. I never had to go

I found him pretty low, for it was an awful jam. And be died next day. But be asked me if I thought She'd deign to to come and make a prayer for him. So I went for her, and she came and made tbe prayer, and set by bim, and Ram he seem to feel a sight easier In his mind for it. For he'd never been a pious man. 'If there was more like her—' Ram says but he stopped there, for he was very low.

Only when she was gone into t'other room with bis wife to bush the baby, he turned to me and says': 'Neb, I'm done for.' 'I'm afraid so.' says I. 'But I can't die easy,' says Ram, 'till I tell you what it was you said at Jobb-

I felt myself run cold, for I wanted to forget it If I could, and lest Sbe should overhear. But to humor him, being a dying man, I asked him what it was. But I rfat all of a tremble to be told. 'You took the tumbler,'says Ram, but he groaned out awfully. 'You took it up, and says: 'God bless her!' Upon my honor as a dying man, that was every mortal word. You God blessed Her, In the rum,' says Ram, 'may Him and you and She forgive me!'

But with that he sank Into a sort of doze, and when she was not needed, we went home to Jinny, and to JfctM her bow It was.

"OATH" ON MOTHBRS IN-LA IF.

The little breed of low-salaried punsters who make what is called "bnmor" In decaying newspapers have one unfailing butt—the mother-in-law. As if a respectable son-in-law did not respect bis wife's mother, though from that fruitful tree expecting his own Increase! If justice had her due and wit had any justice the butt would be the aon-ln-law, that root of Adam, the first sneak. Who but tbe son-in-law dislikes bis wife's mother because she is the visible consclenoe of the household, reminding him of bis selfishness and neglect? As long as tbe old lsdy is present be does not go to tbe full length of his indifference and pitlleesness. Had his wife a father instead of a mother present he would not go half as far as ne dare do now, with only this patient old dam still watching over her yoang. In a state of really filial society it would be the highest testimonial to a man that he was chivalrous to her who bad borne bis wife, and seen with tender care the recognition of her love for him in the maiden child's behavior. How many are the graves over which angels hover of wives' mothers! And when we know that all our yoang wives are yet to be, perhaps, mothers-in-law like these, the derided, shall we net say to these blasphemers of so many venerable matrons: "Who did beget ye? In what grin of Nature's womb wet* ye expressed

I couldn't boar her voice, nor

see her sbadder on the floor, nor see her kiss her little girl. Me and my little girl, we live in the shelter of Her. May Heaven bless her!

Now there's one other thing. It was about New Year's time. There come a message to mo one day at the Club meetin' that Ram Peterweigh'd got hurt. He got jammed into the elevator very bad, and they thought he couldn't last. So he wanted to see me most particularly and I went over to bis house.

A Ghost Story.

BY XBKS K. REXFOKD.

Yes, sir, I

believe in ghoeta.

Why? Well, sir, because I ssw one once. Tell yon aboat it? Well, air, I will, if you'll set down an' listeu. Taint very much to tell, but it was a good deal to see, you can just bet your life, an' I never go by tbe place when I see without feeling kind o' scary.

Lem' me see. Twaa in '60. I waa jist beginning my work on the road tbat year. I'd been on a road out west, but a friend got me tbe position here that I've kep' ever sence.

It was a rainy, disagreeable day when tbe affair I'm goin' to tell you aboat happened. Jest one o' them days that makes a feller feel blue in spite of himself, an* he can't tell why, neither, 'less he lays it all to tbe weather.

I don't know what made roe feel so, but it seemed as if there was danger ahead ever after we left Wood's Station. An' what made it seem so carious was that tbe feeling o' danger come on me all at once. It was jest aboat foar o'clock, as near as I can tell. Anyway, jest about tbe time when tbe down express must have got safely by the place where what I'm goin* to tell you about happened, I was a standin' with one band on the lever, a lookin' ahead through the drizzlin' rain, feelin' chilly an' kinder downhearted, as I've said, though I didn't know why, when all of a sudden, the idea come to mo that sometbin' was wrong somewhere. It took hold o' me an' 1 couldn't git red of it, nohow. 1 knew tbat all was right about the engine. But that feelin' that feelin* that there was danger ahead never let up once aftei" it got into my bead. Queer, wasn't? But'twas so. I couldn't account for after I'd fonnd out there was danger, jest si I'd felt, an* I hain't never been able to aocount for it sence!'

It got dark quite early, on account of the fog an' the train it was dark as pitch afore we left Holbrook, which was the last station we passed afore we come to the place where 1 see the ghost. •I never felt so queer in »ny life afore,' said Jimmy, the fireman, to me, all of a sudden.

As I was feelin' queer myself, he kinder startled me, a aayin' what he did. 'Why! What d'ye mean?' said I, without lettin' onltaat I felt uneasy myself. •Do' know,' answered Jimmy 'can't tell bow I do feel, o'ny as if suthin' was goin' to happen.'

That was just it! I felt the same thing, an' I tole him so, an' we talked about It 'til we both got real fidgety.

There's a party sharp curve about twenty miles Trom Holbrook. Tbe road makes a turn 'round a mountain, an' the river runs below ye, about forty foot, or sech a matter. It's a pokerish lookin' place when you happen to be goin' over it an' tbink what'ud be if the train should pitch over the bluff inter the river.

Wall, we got to tbe foot o' the mountain just where the curve begins. The light from tbe head lamp lit up the track and made it bright as day, about as fur as from me to tbe fence yonder, ahead o' the engine. Outaide o' that spot, all was dark as yQU ever see it, I'll bet.

Alltoonoe I see authin right ahead, in the bright light. We alien ran slow 'round this carve, sol could see distinct. My hair ria right up, I tell ye, for what I see was a man a standin' right in the middle o' the track, a wavin' his hands an' I grabbed hold o' the lever an' whistled down the brakes, an' stopped tbe train as feat as ever oould, fer ye see I thought *tw«fi alive man. An' Jimmy he see it too, sn* turned 'round to me with aa awful soart face, fer he thought sure he'd be run over.

But I began to see 'twan't any flesh-and-blood man afore the train come to a stop, fer it seemed to glide right along over the track, keepin' just about so fer ahead of us all tbe time. 'My God! it's a ghost,' cried Jimmy, a grabbln' me by the arm. 'You can see right through bim.'

An'we could! Yes, sir, we could. When I come to .notice it, the figger ahead of ns was a kind o' foggy lookin' thing, and only half bid anything that was behind it. But it wss just as muoh }ike a man as you be, an' you'd a said the same thing if you'd a seen it.

The train stopped. An' then, sir, what d'ye think happened?

Well, air, tbat thing just grew thinner an' thinner, till it seemed to blend right in with the fog thstwas all around it, and tbe fust we knew 'twas gone! •It was a ghost!' said Jimmy, In a whisper. knew somethin' waa a goin' to happen, 'cause 1 felt so qaeer like.'

They come a crowd in' up to find why I'd stopped the train, an' I swear I never felt so kind o' queer an' foolish aa I did when I told 'em what I'd seen, 'cause I knew they didn't b'leeve in ghosts, most likely, an' they'd think I was drunk or oraav.

He see it too,' sea I, a polntin' to Jimmy. 'Yes, 'lore God, I did,' sea Jimmy, as solemn aa if he was a witness on the stand.

Thia la a pretty how d've do,' aes the oonductor. who didnt oleeve we'd seen anything. 'I'm surprised at yon, Oonnell I thought you waa a man o' sense.'

I thought so, too,' sea I,'but I cant help what I see. If I was a dyin' thia minnit I'd swear I aeeaman on the track, or leastwise the ghost of one. 1 thought twas a real man when I whistled/ 'An1 so wonld I,' sea Jimmy.

The conductor couldn't ralp seein' that we waa in earnest, an' b'leeved what we said.

Take a lantern an'go along the track,' sex be, to some o' the men. An* they did.

An' what d'ye a*poaa they found? Well, air. they found the rails all tors np jsst at tosspot where the traia would a shot over the biafl into the riyer if it had a cone on!

Yea, air they found that, aa* I Ml yen there waasome pretty solem' lookin* iaees when it got among the passsrgsrs how near we'd been to death. 'I never bleeved In ghosts,'sea the oonductor, 'but I bl'eave yoa sse somethin', Oonnell, an'yoa*v» saved a precious loto' Uvea. That's a sore thing.'

Well, air, they went to hantix»' 'round an' they found a lot o' toola an' things tbat the men who'd tore up tbe rails had Iqp in hurry, when they found the

train wasn't goin' over tbe bluff as they'd expected. An' they fonnd, too, when it oome light, tt* body o* the man. wboee bustneaalt waato aeetothe carve where it had been hid away after bain* murdered. Aa' that man waa the man wboae gMat wa had seen.

Yea, dr. HeM oome to warn nao* the danger ahead aflat the man had killed him, an' waa a waltin' for as to go over the rocka to destruction. An' he' saved us.

I found oat afterward that there waaa lot o' money on board, an' I s'pose tbe men who tore up the track knew it.

So thafa' my ghoat atory, an* ifa a true one, air.
