THE GHOST OF
A GALLOWS.
It waa aj extremely awkward sltun
tlon. Eveu 1, who am somewhat alow
lo think, ns a rule, realized that In
stantly. At my feet In the dusty road
way lay a revolver, atlll hot ami smok
ing from Its discharge, the report of
which bail Just startled the quiet of
that country Inne, while not far away
from nie there lay In the road the body
of a man who had fallen from a dog
cart to the ground, apparently atone
lemd. and the worst of It waa that the
man who lay there In the road waa my
bitterest enemy.
The' horse stopped and swerved with
terror at the discharge of the pistol,
and this action threw the man, dead or
wounded,' from the cart. The groom
who waa Hitting back to back with his
master, jumped from the vehicle and
ran toward the prostrate figure, while
the horse, left entirely to hla own de
vlcea, went on In a mad gallop.
As a drowning man thinks, ho did I,
"AS A TimiWNlNO .MAN THINKS, SO DID -."
Ju that brief period. When the groopi
reached the body of his muster be saw
In an Instant that the man wffs dead.
Then he looked at nie. I wns still re
viewing the situation. Hut there wasn't
much time to spare.
It was not I who llrcd the fatal shot.
The road on this side was lined on one
aide will) a high hedge, and 1 knew
that the murderer had fired from this
ambush and dexterlousl.v thrown the
revolver to where It lay Just at my
feet. But 1 wns quick enough to real
ise that no jury In the world would
ever believe tills unless proof of the
real murderer could be produced.
Instantly I knew that my only hope
lay In his capture, and 1 Immediately
dashed through the hedge In senrch of
111 in, while the groom, thinking no
doubt that 1 was attempting to make
my escape, came In hot pursuit after
me.
Inside of the hedge there was no sign
of nny living being. The fair green
fields stretcliiMl away to the hillside, be
yond which the white walls of a farm
lioilse were Just visible, as peacefully
as If there could be no such thing as
the tragedy which had Just taken place
on the other side of the hedge. I looked
up and dowu the long hedge row In
vain. There was not the slightest
clew to the murderer to be seen.
However, I determined that the man
might possibly make for the railroad
station, whence I bad just come, for I
knew that there wns a train for the
city due In a few minutes. Could the
rulllan catch It V And could I overtake
Mm before he did so? If not I reflected
1 might easily telegraph to the next
Htatlon and have him apprehended.
1 was running all the time as bard ns
I could Inside of the hedge and toward
the railway station. The groom bad
given up pursuit of me, doubtless
thinking It bis duty to return to his
master's body. It wanted six minutes
before the train was due. as I saw by
a hasty glance at my watch, but I did
not know how far the station was from
where the murder occurred.
I never ran so hard In my life before,
liut I felt that my life dPMndcd on the
chance of securing the murderer, and
consequently the effort cost me no
Ktraln. My wind began to tell on me,
liowever. at the end of the first quarter
utile, and I was Just wondering vague
ly how long I could keep It up when I
came upon the empty dog-cart with the
runaway horse quietly cropping grass
liy the roadside. Here was luck Indeed.
I Jumped Into the cart an speedily as
my exhausted strength would let me,
nud gathering up the reins I struck the
horse and we were off as fast as the
animal could run toward the station.
I estimated that there were still two
minutes before the tralu was due, and
I felt nure that the station could not le
more than a third of a mile distant.
Suddenly I heard the whistle or the
locomotive, and with It came an In
spiration. The murderer might never be found.
'At all events I could not lay bauds on
Dion Just then. Why not take the train
and make good my own escape while
the oportuulty presented Itself. It
seemed a terrible thing to thus flee
from justice because of a crime which
I had not committed, but I could not
for my life Bee any other course, open,
Ko I urged the animal to still greater
speed and pulling up at u bend In the
road before I reached the station I
jumped down and ran, just lu time to
scramble upon the train as It wan mov
Ing off.
It was a curious freak of chance, If
Indeed, It waa chance ulone, which had
brought me down to llopevllle that
morning and thrust me Into the unen
viable position of a suspected murder
er. I had received a telegram from
Randolph Cutting, the man whom I
hud just seen murdered, uniting me to
come dowu Immediately to llopevllle,
and lu obedience to tills suininous I
had taken an early morning train down
from New York. llopevllle Is an ex
cedlngly unpretentious little New Jer
sey village. If Indeed a country store
and two small houses besides the sta
Hon could be bo described. When I
stepped out of the train I looked about
In vain for Randolph Cutting's car
riage. As It was not to be seen und as
anything In the shape of a hired con
veynnce was un utter Impossibility at
llopevllle, I set out at a brisk wulk In
the direction of Randolph Cutting's
place, which I knew from a former
visit was about a mile and a half from
the station.
Randolph Cutting and I were second
cousins, and the very slight degree of
affection which always existed between
us was not Increased materially at the
death of an uncle of ours who left his
money to me, und whose will was ho
Involved that there was a lawsuit be
tween Cutting and myself. As It hap
pened, by the terms of the will, most
of my uiK'Io's property was left to me,
and Cutting tried to have the will
broken upon certain technical grounds
which are not essential to this story.'
The courts upheld me, however, and
declared the will perfectly valid. As a
consequence Randolph Cutting and my
self had not spoken for five years, and
I, of course, had not been nenr his
home until that eventful day, when I
hurried down there In response to his
telegram. True, 1 did think that It
was a curious thing for Cutting to do
to telegraph for nie to conic dowu to
llopevllle, but on second thoughts I
concluded that some business of Im
portance In connection with certain In
terests which were still mutual, re
quired that he should see me, and that
perhaps he was unable from llluess or
some other cause to leave his home.
This brief explanation of the cause of
my visit to llopevllle was only a small
part of the thoughts which crowded
my brain when 1 wns safely seated In
the train and whirling toward Jersey
City. As I have said, Randolph Cut
ting and I were bitter enemies, nud
the evidence which pointed to my hav
ing committed the crime seemed so
blackly conclusive tlint I could nl
most feel the rope tighten about my
neck. When the train stopped ut the
next station I trembled In every limb,
fully expecting to see some one come
Into the car to arrest me. Nothing of
the sort hnppeiied. however, and I
passed several more stations in safety.
However. I did not allow myself much
hope, for I felt sure 1 would be appre
hended at Jersey City. After some
thought I concluded that It would be
the best plan to go right In rather than
get off at any out-of-town stations, as
there would be much less risk of being
noticed in t lie crowd which would get
off the tralu there.
Wheu the train pulled Into the Jersey
City depot 1 made my way with all
possible baste to the wultlng-room, and
greatly to my surprise I wns not mo
lested. Suddenly I heard the trnluinan
call out a train for Philadelphia, and
acting upon Impulse I hastily secured a
ticket and was smn comfortably en
sconced in u parlor enr on the way to
the Quaker City.
I can never describe that night of
horror which I spent In Philadelphia.
Some Idea of my findings may be Imag
ined when I saw In nu evening paper a
dispatch telling of the murder of Ran
dolph Cutting, a well-known New
Yorker, near his country place at nope
vlllc, N. J. The account In the paper
said that detectives from New York
were at work upon the case, and that
although they refused to give out any
of the facts, they were In possession
of a clew whlrh they felt sure would
ennble them to capture the murderer
within a few hours.
1 sought a quiet hotel upon a side
street, registering under an assumed
name and then endenvored to compose
myself to nwnlt results. I hardly think

I slept a wink that night, but tossed
feverishly upon my bed, wondering
whether I had uot acted very foolishly
In thus running nway when I wns per

ing I had strengthened the chain of evl

cumstances 1 did not see w hat else I
could do. There was still a chance for

doubt a new one. as his face was not
familiar to me. and he probably did not
know who I was. No one else to llope

thing had blown over, and this I
thought I could do as well In my hotel
In Philadelphia as anywhere else.
Then wheu I would arrive at this
point In my reasoning the thought of
that clew that the detectives were
working on would come to me and I
would break Into a cold perspiration
from nervousness und anxiety. How I
ever got through the night I en u not
tell. As soon us I could get Into my
clothes In the morning I procured a
morning newspuper. There I found a
fuller and more thrilling account of the
murder, most of which I skimmed
through hurriedly until I reached the
following words:
"Detectives Warden and Seabury, of
the Plukerton force, reached llopevllle
shortly after noon, having been tele
graphed for by Mr. Cutting's family.
They at once set to work upon a clew
furnished them by Davis, the groom,
who was with Mr. Cutting when the
fatal shot was fired. Davis was sitting
with Is back to Mr. Cutting, but hap
pening to look toward the side of the
road he saw a man, whom he recog
nized as a discharged servant of his
employer's, level a pistol at Mr. Cut
ting's head and fire. Mr. Cutting fell
to the ground and Davis jumped to his
master's assistance, only to find him In
stantly killed. The horse had taken
fright and run away, when Davis hap
pening to look up saw a figure In the
roadway, Instinctively he ran toward
him, but the man darted behind the
hedge and Davis lost sight of him. He
was able, however, to Ideiitlfy the mur
derer fully when he waa arrested by
the detectives late last night. The man,
whose name Is James Simpson, was
found In an empty hay shed, not two
miles from the scene of the murder.
When conf rout ed with his crime he lie-
came panlc-strlcken and made a full
confession."

to being hanged. Philadelphia Time

Debts Delayed His Burial.
The case of a burial long delayed
has recently come to light at Revel, a
ltusslan town nenr the Gulf of Fin
land. The body thus tardily interred
was thnt of a Belgian soldier of for
tune, the Due Charles de Croy, who
had been commander-in-chief of the
Russian army at the historic battle of
Narva In 1700. Made a prisoner during
the fight, De Croy took up his resi
dence at Revel, where he died in the
course of events: bis creditors demur
red to his burial, however, until his
debts were paid. So the soldier was
mummified and his remains have stay
ed ever since In a church, where they
have been exhibited to visitors as a cu

as wns to be found among the local au
thorities, he has been given a fitting

INFLUENCE OF BEAUTY.
A French lady once remarked to
another lady within the hear
ing of the writer: "You do not
cure so much now about ymir looks,
my dear, you are married." There
was something very Incongruous In
this rcimirk coming from the lips of n
lady of France, since all French wom
en, as u rule, bear up their reputation
for skill and tact In preserving their
personal seductiveness, rascinutions
and charm even unto old age, thus
showing their very great good sense
ami. one might sny, absolute wisdom.
The very time when u woman does
need to care about her good looks is
after she has won the heiirt of tlie one
man in the world she cared about win
ing. For her own sake and her hus
band's she should care. No man wants
his wife to seem lucking In charm. And
once lie loses his pride lu her. he very
fast loses his respect for her. and
where there Is no respect, talk us you
will, there can lie no genuine, high
smiled love.
A woman should make the most of
herself in her husband's eyes. She
should endeavor to uppeitr the fairest,
daintiest and the noblest woman of her
sex. lu word and deed, lu her every
mannerism, as well us in persouul ap
pearance, she should try her uttermost

for her. and to keep and hold him en

those heart und mind qunlitles and per
sonal seductions that tirst won him. A
woman who is wise In this way need
have uo fear of cause for Jealousy.
Jealousy, by the way. my door sisters,
Is nothing lu the world but a personal
acknowledgment that you regard your
self beneath some other woman or
women in some respect. It is a tacit
confession of your own Inferiority I
did you ever think of thntV The wom
an who Is confident of her own worth
Is never Iwthered by even the slightest
twinge of jealousy.
It Is a mistake to regard marriage as
detrimental to u womuu's welfare from
any point of view, as sometime It
seems to be regarded, judging from
such remarks us quoted, on the con
trary it broadens Instead or narrowing
woman's sphere, ns when she marries
her real life only begins. Then, and
then only, does the supreme glorifica
tion of her sex for her begin to dawn.
