CHAPTER IV. u tel RES! -Set if yrm f fiwow tueh a scar at On gmticnuw mentions." It was spring again not the spring of the north which May nshers in with vio lets and the return of the song birds, but the spring which comes creeping over the landscape of the south, the vernal eason that follows the floods of Feb ruary rains, which clothes the brown fields with green almost before one knows it, and brings swiftly in its train the summer's promise of fertility. I was Mill in New Orleans, where 1 had come from Memphis, though my thoughts mm tnrnina- northward Rjrain. 1 had . been doina space work on The Picayune. where Jones held a desk in the city edi tor's room. Some correspondence for northern papers had fallen to me and furnished a pretty decent sort of liveli- Since leaving Memphis not a word had rrac bed me of Jason Brigham. If toe titer had swallowed him, as we con jectured, then It had not given up its dead, or else had cast its prey upon some forsaken shore, perhaps in a treacherous eddy on the rim of 'some great desolate uulhar. or amomr the twisted roots and broken tree trunks in a cove upon tome wooded stretch where human eye 1 never see it The affairs had ranged to be a present memory to me. I thonght with pity of Brigham, and of the lonely woman whose heart had been well nigh broken, hut then there are so many tragedies in a new spaper man's life that his nature Mnl-n insensibly ana ne cumes to pessiwteiicuiy accept " the cruel reprisals of fate with a fair share of stoicism. From the effects left by Drigham I had the photograph of Emily PereivaL She had told me to keep it as a memento when I offered to return it to her. There were few things beside that, and such as there were were left in The Avalanche office in the hope that he might yet re Hrn to claim them. The winter had been a gay one in the ""t City the season at the French Sf.. m l never been better, the Mardi a brilliant success, the town was Sa .if gay life, which renewed and re hecced the Latin graces among onr Puri tanical institutions. In the merry round I had had my share and borne my part as well of the brunt of the work incidental to the daily grind of journalism. So I found myself upon the eve of starting north in anything but a pleasant frame of mind, when the managing editor of The Picayune sent for me and said: "I wish yon wonld go up to Donaldson- die and do that lime. Armand murder case for us. You know 1 have no man here to send, and it is too big a thing for the indifferent local correspondent we have at that point to handle." Of course I couldn't refuse to have done so under the circumstances wonld have been unpardonabla But criminal affairs always nauseated me, and I hated the stuffy atmosphere of court rooms, where ignoramuses make pretense of knowledge to befuddle stupid jurors, and where the whole performance is a mock ery of the solemnity of justice. The case was famous or infamous nongh, as such things go. Mine. Ar mand, who owned a plantation down on the Bayou Laf ouche, had been murdered in her bed. presumably for money which he was popularly supposed to keep con- j cealed in the house. The criminal had escaped detection for several months, and then had been apprehended while em ployed in a timber camp where be was one of a gang of loggers. Just what evi dence there was against him the officers of the state declined to make public, and the poor wretch, having no money to tempt a cormorant of the law to under take his defense, and no friends to inter cede for him, had been kept in jail to await trial at the spring term. It was understood in a general way that the evidence against the accused was incon trovertible, and it was further under stood that as he was a stranger and the law needed a victim, he was to be hanged in due season. I went up to Donaldsonville the day before the one set for the trial, and landing at the miserable and forlorn place in the evening, hunted up the prosecuting attorney. That worthy was fullv imbued with the heinousness of the crime, the necessity of some one's being punished for it, with the convic tion that the prisoner was the guilty man, and with the assurance that he would be banged. Further than that he had nothing to communicate. If 1 wanted information 1 must seek the counsel for the prisoner, the judge hav ing recently appointed a member of the bar to defend him. This advice was good, and I took it. I found the counsel for the defense a mild mannered young man who was evidently just breaking into the profession. But if his legal acumen was not overpower ing he was to be commended fur his modesty. He had not yet acquired the insolence or the vanity of the prosecut ing attorney, and, what was in his favor, he took some interest in his un fortunate client. i do not believe huu guilty," he mud, 'and yet 1 ee-wely know why 1 Velio in his "innocence.

It is supposed' that he had been in hiding in the woods or perhaps concealed in the cabin of some friendly negro between tU' time of, the commission of the crime and that day upon which beaaplWd for work at the camp. ' . -i " - The next morning 1 accompanied Mr. Briirua. the couusel for the defendant. over to the court house a dilapidated old frame building which had onee been whitewashed, as an observer might con elude from the mottled iippearauce of its exterior. About the door was the cus tomary crowd of idlitrei -intidek. the benches full of gaping rurioeity seekers. Within the bars few uirtwsat with their feet on a long table, copying the attitude uf the judge, wiiose diUity of station .vas marked by the small rais.nl plat ji iu on which his ch.-.:r was placed back f a smaller table. T.. lie tried in such place would give an uuwwited horror -n crime, and wonld t- Imicaily make infliction of rur.ismiieii! mi unusual ami b;trbarons distortion of justice. I was still studying the faces of the audi' tors when the case of the "State versus , Ansil Berner" was called, and the sheriff entt-red with his prisoner the murderer of Mme. Armand. As he came np the aisle I looked at him, and, my (Jkxl! it was Jason Brig ham who was led forward, handcuffed and disheveled, to take his seat iu the prisoner's box. I could scarcely believe that sight was not playing some trick with sense, that I was not the victim of an absurd and ludicrous hallucination. But there could be no mistake. Under the pinched and drawn face, sallow from exposure in the miasmatic swamps, under the long disheveled Hair, tne raggea, nnkept beard f three months' growth, the rough, uncouth clothes, the slothnl, dogged air beneath all these 1 saw the face and features and the unmistakable personality of Jason Brigham the man without a past In the tumult of my feelings I was blind to everything else, unconscious of everything else, and, rising to my feet, went forward to meet him with hands extended and bis name upon my lips. "Jason Jason Brigham." His eye met mine, but there was no recognition in it His face took on a cu rious expression of surprise surprise not at seeing In an unexpected place one he had known, but astonishment that he should be mistaken for any oue else than Ansil Berner. "But don't you know me, Jason!" I persisted. "Yoa have not forgotten Gil man, have youT "You evidently mistake me for some one you have known," said the man, rais ing his manacled hands ana then letting them fall again as the steel chains smote sharply on eachother. "I never saw yon before." "Never saw me before! Why, man, what new folly is this? You do not mean to tell me you have forgotten the life we led together in Memphis?" "Some chance resemblance leads you into error," was the reply. "I wasnever in Memphis, tho' I know of the town very well." "Yes, 1 should think yon would," I re torted; "but, Bir, since you do not choose to recall the past, I will not take meas ures to revive it. "Did you know this man?" asked the judge. "I knew him very well, your honor,' I replied. "We were for several months associated together upon the editorial staff of the Memphis Avalanche; we roomed together and were inseparable friends." "How long ago was this?" "Last fall." "And when did he leave there?" "In November." "That was impossible, for Mme. Ar mand was murdered in October." "Then this man did not kill her, for I will take my oath that he was in Mem. phis at that time." "What interest have you in this trial?" and as he asked tho question the judge looked at me sharply. "1 have no interest except in seeing an innocent man preserved from a humili ating death. I came here as the repre sentative of the New Orleans IMcaynue. without any knowled-?o of the parlies in interest. Up to the time the prisoner entered the do-ir I hud no idea i had ever senn him, but 1 recognize. i:i him an old friend, and one v;!i' iu the nature of things could not have commuted this crime of which he h art-nvd."

LM the blood rush to my braiu in a tliHxf that threat ened to unseat my reason. "Your identification seems complete. sir," said the judge, "but you will, of course, pardon me if I uint out to you how impossible it would be for us to ad mit vonr unsuptHirtod evidence in this i-;ise. You are a stranger to ns all, and though 1 do hot believe, such a thing for a moment, still iu the eyes of the law your motives would lie susceptible to doubt Yon should have corroborating tosti inony. But weightier than all, the witness declares that he is not tho man you say he is. You do not allege that he is insane?" "lie anuears to be siuie euongh, but from what I kuow of him, tn the light of present icireuuistanc i, I should bo will iug to behove he w;ia insane." "If what you Vuowof him leaves yon with such an impression, does it occur to you that he might be guilty of the crime with which he is charged?" "Not for a moment: for though I can not reconcile the phase.ef his career that have come under my observation, 1 have never seen any tendency toward crime in hla disposition. I knew him as a gen erous, brave and truthful man. Besides, as I have said, I was with him at the verv time Mme. Armand was murdered." "My dear sir, you are treading on dan .nrous ground." remarked the judge ::ulii:gly. 1 am too confi lent tit :t could prove t alibi, vonr honor. t h yd vonr warn ing, and 1 can prove oue for this unfortu nate man, if you will give me time." At this point the prosecuting ttor-y, who held his peaai.a lotig as possible, sprang to his feet and said tragically and oratorically: "Your honor, 1 must entur a protest against such an unwarrantable proced ure as this stranger suggests. U seems to me, your honor, that this trial is pro ceeding in a very c-' ' tanner, a very odd manner indeed, fc I do not need to call your honor's attention to tho un precedented liberties accorded ims gen- ; tiean. 1 merely desire to direct your J attention to the fact that what he says ticks confirmation even from the pris oner himself, even from that man, sir, who would be most likely to catch at any straw which offered a reasonable hope of enabling him to escape or even to postpone the fate he so richly de serves. 1 move you, sir, that the trial of the accused proceed." "This trial has indeed taken a very nn- usual course," replied the judge delib erately. "But you will admit that this is a very remarkable interruption. 1 am impressed with the sincerity of the gentleman who has so unexpectedly and so peculiarly appeared as a voluntary witness for the defense, and 1 reel Mat in justice to the prisoner he should have au opportunity of presenting testimony to support his statements, v nder the cir cumstances 1 shall entertain a motion for the postponement of the case." It is unnecessary to say that tne coun sel for the accused was not slow in act ing upon the suggestion, and the case was continued and ordered placed on the docket for trial at the next term of conrt With the dismissiil of the case and the sheriff's leading out of the prisoner 1 was about to hurry away when tho judge stopped me and, calling me to his desk, said: "Come around to my home this evening. I want to talk with you." I promised him I would, and wont out to walk about a little and gather my scattered thoughts. There was abun dant need for reflection. It began to look as though this man who disclaimed ever having had a past was to be sum marily robbed of a future. TO BE COSTINI'KD The Kent la the Cheapest. When people accept the idea that the "best is the cheapest," then and then only will the people insist on making roads in the proper way, though tlwy may cost more in the beginning. A road properly built adds to the prosperity of the com munity and the cost, if maintained in good order, need be no more than isijow used for hauling mud and stone into the middle of mudholes. A country can never prosper where six months of the year all the necessary driving on the road is to be through mud and slush, where the horses are worn out and the people's tempers likewise, in just getting together the necessaries of life. Is it any wonder that the farms, are being given over to foreigners and our intelli gent farmer gentlemen becoming things of the past? National Farmer. There is no question before the public today which so intimately concerns the prosperity of the fanner as the country road question. Good roads mean fewer abandoned farms, fewer mortgaged farms and fewer unprofitable farms. Bad roads mean a continuation of the present disheartening condition which, so long as it continues at all, will grow worse. The farmers' slough of despond is formed- by the mud in the roads be tween him and his market.

Horses at work on the farm returned in manure rather more than four cents each per day during the time wheu they were tn the stable, which by another trial was found to represent three-fifth of the ex crement voided in an entire day. With sheep kept on a light galvaulted Irou pau covering the flvwr of the pen, the value of the fertililing material ob tained was about one aud a half cents per sheen per day. With swine kept in the same general way as the ebeep aud fed ou two differ ent rations, the value of tho manure amounted to but little more than half a cent Per day for well fed, thrifty shoats of medium sixe. Calculated on the basis of 1,000 pouuds animal live weight, the value of the mauure per year for each clajw of animals is given as follow: For horses, lO.l'J; cows. fSO.83: sheep, f .M; swine. 11-7.11.
