Captain's Romance.

Cap. P. Head, In Arkansaw Traveler. Capt. Hilford is known an on© of the bravest and most gallant oJlicers of the "United States Artfiy. He l» one of those odd bachelors to whom the paaalng years I bring additional Installments of romance have seen him go into ecstatic spasms over a spout spring in the mouptains, and have known him to lie under a tree and shed tears over the misfortunes of a heroine drawn by some fourth-class romancer but in action he was so fearless that his brother officers excused what they pleased to term his soft qualities.

I A short tlm'eagw the captain was granted a leave of absence. He bad long since grown tired of all the fashionable watering places, and no longer could lind anything irt the cities to Interest him, so the question of how he should spend that ti mo, which was all his own, began to perplex him. '•I am acquainted with both the wild and civilized life of our country," said h(, addressing friend. "I know the wild Indian and the Boston swell aud to tell the truth, I don't know what to do."

Ye«, you are acquainted with the extremes,'^ the friend rojolned, "but do yon know much of tho intermediator You ha /e made a study of the Indian in his wild state, but do you know anything of him as a citizon? Why not go to tho Indian Territory, the Cherokee Nation for instance, aud amuse yourself by studyiug tho habits of tho Indian farmer."

Patterson was rather a kind-ho»rt#d old follow, accommodating in everything but answering questions concerning hh family, but this was no eccentricity, for nearly all Indians arodlapoaeft to say as little*as possible with regard to themselves. Ansy, the girl, was fond of fishing, and as no restraint was placed upon her actions she and the captain, iu his words again, had many a delightful stroll.

There was, I had forgotten to stato, another member of tho Patterson household, a negro named

fljTho captain was so hnpreweo with the .idea thai he set out, the next d»y» f')r the Indian Territory. He found tho country to bo boautiful, with liilln of charming contemplation and valleys of •enrapturing romance. Streams like moving silver thrilled him, ami birds, whom it seemod hud Just found new songs, made tho leaves quiver with echoing "music. After several days of do* iightful roaiulng, the capt«4ji rented a small cabin, and, having plwtnod himself with a few cooking Utensils, settled down to housekeeping With the rifle and tlshlng rod ho provided ample food, and as ho soon bocame acquainted with several farmerw, ho thought over and over again, that his romantic craving .had never approached so near to (in his own words) sublime satisfaction. Ills n#arest n&igiibor, four miles distant, was an Indian fartnor named Tom Patteraon. Ills family consisted of a wife and one daughter, a rather handsome girl. She had learned to read and write, and, as she seemed to be romantic, the •captain soon leonine much interested In her.

Ho was as

dark as the muslrtgs of dysyeptlc, but lie was good-natured and obliging. "Rather queef that a colored man, so fond of political life, should live out here away from the States, isn't it, Alf t" "Wall, no #ah, kain't say dat it Is. Dar's er right smart sprlnklln'o' us genermen out yare, and dough we'a mighty fur erpart, we manages ter keep up good s'ciety, sah.

BO." Y*- CHAPTER II.

The captain could not aleep. Be had extinguished the lamp by tne bedside, but on the wall there was a bright light. It grew brighter, and then be saw the face of Ansy. A ray came at the door. "Who's there?'' "Captain, for God's sake run away,the Glioks are coming after you."

It was the voice of Ansy. The captain dressed himself and opened the door. The girl was gone. The moon was shining. The officer was not the man to run away. He closed the door, took up a repeating rifle and openthe window. A few moments passed and he saw several men enter the clearing in front of the cabin. "What do you want here?" he shouted. "We want you." "What do you want with me?** "Ask you some questions." "You may ask questions, but don't come a step nearer." "What did you come here for?" "None of your business."

This reply created a commotion. The captain could bear the marauders swearing. "We'll break down the door," one of them said as he stepped forward. The next moment be had fallen to the ground When the smoke cleared away the captain saw that the rascals were gope, but thore soon came from the woods a show er of blazing arrows. It was time to get away. He made a hole in the roof, crawled out, sprang to the ground and hurried into the woods.

Early next morning he went to Patterson's house. The family bad heard of the tight. "You necnter be Tarmed now, dongh, sab," said Alf^'cazeda foun'out dat you wuat a Newnjted States ossifer, an' it skeered 'em putty nigh ter def. You gin it ter one o' 'em putty hard, 1 ken tell you.

Patterson and his wife left the room, but the

negro

sat in the doorway.

"Ansy," said the captain, "I owe my life to you." "Dat you does, sah," replied the negro.

The captain gave him a significant glani'o and ngsin turned to the girl. "Yes, yon nave saved my life, but that is not the cause of my deep .regard for you."

Tho girl made no reply. The captain could have killed the negro. "I will ignore bis black presence," he muBed. He leaned over and took the girl's hand. "Ansy," said tho negro w'en degenerman gits through wid yo' han' I wants yer ter sewer button on tbatar hickory shirt o' mine." "You scoundrel!" explained the captain, springing to his foet, "how dare you spoak in such a manner to this young lady?" '•Why, boss," the negro replied, "what's de use'n makin' s-ch er great 'miration? Dat 'oman has been my wife fur putty nlgb two years."

The captain's romance was ended.

WJ'IJi HIS OLD LOVE AGAIN.

CHARLIE WENT WEST, MADE A FORTUNE AND RETURNED.

New York Press.

Here Is a story like those romances you read of in which tho maiden waited and tho lover returned with a fortune Charles J. Travis and Lizzie Sherwood worked together in a down-town paper house nine years ago. They fell in love, but their salaries were not sufficient to Support thein. They had abandoned all hope of goiug together to the altar, when Charlie's cousin, from the Far Wost, arrived and painted glowing pictured of the golden land boyond the Mississippi. The lovers parted.

Letters from the west became fewer and fewer until Lizzie, believing that her lover had forgotten her, plighted her troth to a sailor, a first male, please, and promised to marry him when he returned from a trip East. Tho reader may now seo that there was a small chance of the lovora ranning together. The sailor never returned. That ends him and the reader need not expect to see htm bob up again in this tale of love and travel. Lizzie found employment some weeks ago at Iceland's Ocean Hotel, Long Branch. She was a chambermaid and a pretty maiden.

Two days before the hotel dosed for the season a tanned and bearded stranger, evidently Western man, arrived at the hotel ank registered as Charles J. Travis, Deer Lodge, Mon. Ho was shown to a room, which happened to be In Lixsie's hall. After gofng to bis apartment he discovered that no had no towels, and rang for tbem. Lizzie handed them to the stranger, who astonished her bv suddenly catching her by the ahoulaers and exclaiming: "LizzieSherwood! I've boen hunting all over ibis country .for you!" "Who are you?" cried Lizzie, trying to draw away from the man. "Why? don't vou remember me? Don't you remember when you used to fold papers down at Dally Co.'s that a big fellow used to see you home on dark night#?"

Lizzie looked up Into the bearded face, and though there was very little trace of her old lover, she ventured to ask, "are you Charlie Trnvis?" "That's who I am and you are Lizzie Sherwood, and you promised to marry me. I think it's about time you were keeping your promise, don't you?" This extremely direct question staggered Lizzie.

Had Lizzie been in the hobit of reading the thrilling tales about the eminent Mr. Kilrain and the highly-respected Mr. Sullivan she would have admitted that she was "knocked out." As it was she merely said she would like an explanation, He spun a very fine tale about delayed mails, and ahe owned up about the sailor boy who went sailing away into the stormy seats of Boston and New Haven looking for menhaden. So he asked her to marry him. "But I'll have to get some new clothes,* •aid IJzxie. "Xo,y* wont yxm «ui g*t th*-n afher lover.

A BRIDEGROOM.

One hot afternoon a tramp printer entered the office 6f the Franklin (Ky.) Patriot. Tlie regular corps of compositors were sufficient to do all the necessary work, but the boys were lazy and wanted to go fishing, so the tramp was given temporary employment. When the boys returned next aay they were surprised, and not a litUe ashamed, to see that the tramp bad "set up" the entire paper—work which would have taken the entire force several days to perform. When the proof sheets were brought in, they were found to be so clean that the editor of the Patriot sent for the tramp. "What is your name?" the editor ask-

"Oscar Howell." "Where are you from?

"Well,

you

He put on the clothes. "By George, Oscar, you look like a French dancing master. Well, I'm going to take a little nip."

He took a bottle out of his pocket and shook it. "Here's some old sttiffa fellow gave me at Hopkinsville. Fifteen years old. Remember the time wo struck that old negro for a pint of peach brandy? WTell, here's to you. Ah, b»b, hah. Would you try a little?" "No." "Won't! hurt you. Wouldn^t hurt a flea. I tell you that whdn a follow feels bilious a little licker Is a mighty good thing for htm. Ever get bilious?" "Yes, bilious now. Haven't bad any appetite for a week." "I was 'way oft the other dav, but this stuff (again shaking the bottle) has set mo all right." "You don't mean to say that you have had that licker for several days?" "Yea. Tell you what's a fact, a man doesn't want bat little of this stuff, and the beauty of is, it keeps him from drinking bad licker." "Let me smell of It."

Howell held the bottle to his nose. Then with a sudden impulse, his lips closed over the neck.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL,

Mr. Howell waved his hand around in a complete circle. "What does that mean?" "Means that I am from everywhere." •'Do you want work?" "That's the reason I came here." "I mean regular work." "Yes, but I don't want to throw anybody else out of a jon." "Glad you are so honorable, bat thorn boys out there are my sons and I aes thinking of sending them to school." "All right, then, I will take their place." "D vnu drink?" "I w.'.und up the ball of an extended spree the other day, but I am not going to drink any more." "I bo|«A our resolution may hold out.

He had brought a literary freshness to the town. His jokes were new hi* courtesy marked. One year passed awty. Mr. Howell was engaged to marry ihe handsomest and most intelligent young woman in the town. The girl's father and mother were delighted. Howell was envied by all the young men. The day for the wedding drew near. The "popular and enterprising tailor" had made Howell's wedding suit.

One day another tramp entered the office. Howell dropped bis "mako-up rule" and sprang forward to meet him. "Why, Shorty, how are you?" "Sorter slow,'' the tramp replied as he placed his elbows on the imposing-stone. "How is it with you?" "Oh, I am flying. Going to get married to-morrow night." "Glad to hear It. When we separated that day with a carefully divided quarter I didn't think your lines would so soon fall in such appreciative places." "Neither did I. It Is all due, though. Shorty, to my sobriety.

THE WORK OF A TEAR.

For the first time in two years these two. who bad once been man and wife, met In a hotel parlor. They were parted through the machinations of a jealous women, who, failing to inspire a love in thebusbatid, had set herself to work to make the eouple unhappy. The meeting was strictiy a business one that brought them together. Some legal papers assuring a separation had to be discussed and signed by ooth parties.

There was a wild imploring glance in, the mans eyes Vrhen they fell on his wife's face, but she did not seem to notice it. She seemed nervous and dispirited, and the white hands trembled visibly, and she did not dare to raise her eyes for some time.

She was richly dressed In plain black velvet, tnat set off her superb figure. She waa much his junior, but a woman in the prime of beauty summer.

He thought of bis lost happiness with many a pang and of this woman he could never call by the sacred namo of wife again. A harsh decree of law had snatched her from his side forever.

This stately, beautiful lady was "Mrs. Jernyngham," now, for him as for all others. He bad no right to take her hand or clasp her in his arms. He must still the beating of his aching, agonized heart, and address her as he might address the veriest stranger of her sex.

It was a terrible effort. But he made it bravely and succeeded ia it for better than be had hoped.

She looked up, with a start of surprise, as his cold and measured tones fell ou her ear. She turned deathly pale as she met his eyes, and then the color rushed back to her face in an overwhelming tide of crimson. She took the chair he brought her without a word, and leaned her head upon her hand.

Presently she looked up. Her eyes avoided his. But her manner was perfectly quiet now, and her face was calm, though pale. "We will goon now with our business, if.you please, sir," she said, in a voice as measured as his own had been.

He bowed low and drew a chair near the tahle where she was seated. Spreadtwo formidable looking documents on the table before her, he began explaining their pature and contents as calmly as if he had been some smoke-dried lawyer, and she his client.

She listened in silence. "You fully understand the nature of thisdeed—Mrs.—madam?" besaid, when be had concluded. "I do," "Are you satisfied with tho provisions herein made for your future? Can anything more be done? Can I be

His voice faltered a little and broke. Her hand, lying on the edge of the legal document, trembled slightly. "ram perfectly satisfied, sir," she answered at last. "Then you will have the goodness to sign yonr name within that blank."

A pretty, fanciful ink-stand of malachite and ormolu stood on a marble slab at the further end of the room.

He rose to bring it. Her dark-gray eyes followed him—was it with a look of yearning love? If so, he knew it not.

Returning he placed the open parchment sheet Defore her and poiuted tQ the blank.

She took up the pen. "What name," she asked in a low voice, and again thatcrlinson tide surged up over cheek, neck and brow. "Your—your own madam!" he answered, coloring painfully in his turn. "Al^tia Jernyngham."

And again the dark-blue eyes 'it upon the downcast face with

a passfinate, despairing look. Her breast heaved convulsively once or twioe. She put her white hand suddenly up to her throat, as if something had stopped her breath. Her harid met the golden chaui.

The hext moment that chain was torn from her neck, revealing a beautifullj executod miniature, set clwely .io a border of forget-me-nots, formed with rare skill from clusters of precious gems. His quick eye fell upon the portrait—his own face! And she had worn it next her heart through these two lonely years a

The chain flashed brightlv in the air, the precious stones blazed In the sunlight the diamond-«uarded wedding ring shone like a circle of living fire, as she tore it hastily from her hand and dashed it, with the picture, at his feet. "Take them!" she cried, wildly. "Take them away from my sight forever! Oh, I wish I could tear every though! of you from my breaking heart!"

And as she spoke something brighter than the diamonds—of infinitely greater value than gems, or gold, or the finest efforts of the artist's skill—flashed also in the sunlight and fell upon her cheek.

It was a tear. He saw it and his heart beat high. Yet even In that momedt pride must

And holding her to his long-widowed heart, the strong and stately man laid his prond head upon the woman's shoulder and wept.

The next day saw their second bridal. No enemy can ever come between them more. They are bound too firmly to each other now ever to be separated except by the cruel hand of death.

A HUNDRED YEARS A HEROt

HQ\f SETH WARNER WON A WIFE AND BECAME FAMOUS.

Colonel Seth Warner, of Vermont, the famous hero of the Revolutionary war, was a leading fighter for the Hampshire grants.

These titles were disputed by the State of New York and its authorities obtained an edict of the King of England in their favor. The settlers were stung bv the supposed injustice. This state of things brought Colonel Seth Warner to the front. With Ethan Allen and others he actively opposed every effort of the New York state authorities to enforce possession, and finally he, with Allen and o'hera, were outlawed and a price put on their heads!

To circumvent New York, it was necessarv that someone should go into that state* and gain required information. Col. Warner, assuming for safety the name of "Dr. Howard,^ uudertooK this perilous and romantic journey.

While on bis way home he stopped at a country inn, where an old gentleman and daughter were storm bound. Tho father lell ill and tho daughter called upon Col. Warner, who, with his wide knowledge of simple remedies, successfully treated tho "old man," and he finallv won this devoted women for a wife.

Such incidents were not udcommon in those vears. Wheu the doctor was not easily "reached, months of sickness, and even*life were often saved by some unprofessional friend versed in the use of simple herbs and roots. The health of early settlers and their powers of endurance convince us that such medicines did only good and left no poison in the blood to work as much injury to the system as would the disease itself. *In time of peace tlie colonel was in constant demand for his knowledge of simple remedies and their power over disease. But it was left another of his name of the present age to give to the public what was then used with such positive success.

Warner for over a hundred years has shared with Ethan Allon the admiration of the American people.

Colonel Seth Warner belongs to a family of wide distinction: no loss than eight members thereof won fame in the regular practice of medicine.

Looking to the adoption by the people of this generation of old time simple remedies, his direct descendant, 11. H. Warner's safe curs, for man years has been experimenting with olu time roots and herbs formulae and, his search having been finally rewarded success, he gives the world the result. These recipes and formulae in other days accomplished great things because they wore purely vegetable and comblnod simply so as to cure the disease indicated, without injurv to the system. In harmony with their old time character, wo learn that he proposes to call them Warner's Log Cabin remedies, using as a trademark an old-fashioned American log cabin. We understand that he intends to put forth a "sarsaparllla," for tho blood, tho sarssparilla itself being but one of a number of simple and efl'ective elements "I Cabin Imps and buchu," a general stoivaoh tonic and invigorator "Log Cabin cough and consumption remedy," "Warner's li»g Cabin hair tonic a preparation for that, universal disase catarrh, called "Log Cabin ro«e cream"W irner's Log Cabin plasters and "Warner's L"g Cabin liver pills which are to be used In connection with the remedies, or independently as required.

Warner's safe remedies are alreadj standards nf the most pronounced scientific value in all parts of the world, and we have no doubt th* Cabin remedies, for the diseases thov aro intended to cure, will be of equal merit, for Mr. Warner ha* the reputation of connecting his name with no preparation that Is not meritrious.
