'Hie events of this story occurred
many years aj;o. A group of stu
dents stood in the shade of a gigan
tic oak, in the park of an eastern
city. Just aero83 the road from
them the old college reared its
friendly brown walls and looked as
if it held a monopoly in the work
of dispensing knowledge to man
kind. The studeutrt, with the exception
of one, were the Hons of . wealthy
parents, The exception was hand
some, dark-eyed, Dick Wynu.
whose courage and cheerfulness
had become proverbial at college.
Dick was working his way un
aided to secure an education that
would fit him to till some useful
position in life, and he was as much
respected as were his wealthy com
panions, The close of the spring term was
near at hand, and the young men
who had labored together so long
over knotty problems had much to
ay to each other about how and
where each would spend his sum
mer vacation. One proposed to go
to Long Island, another had New
port in view, where a fashionable
sister expected to reign queen of
Ihe season. However, the majority
favored a trip to the backwoods to
spend several weeks in the delight
ful recreation of hunting and fish
ing while they tried the much cov
eted experience of "camping out".
Dick had preserved silence w hile
the "others laid their plans for
spending the vacation so pleasant
ly, bnt when a 'speech' from Wynn
was called out, he said :
'Boys, I shall not make you a
speech as to my plans, but since
you take an interest in hearing
them, I shall tell you. You know
that 1 was not born with a silver
spoon in my mouth. So while you
are all having a good recreation
Jaunting, fishing and reading in
some shady nook of the forest, I
shall be manipulating the golden
sheaves in some farmer's harvest
eld. And later, when you come
bock fresh and happy to take your
places in college, I shall take my
place in some country school to
earn the 'needful' to return next
epring, not before. But I feel very
happv in that prospect
"What a pity that we live in
such practical, old-fogy days," said
young Bertie Lang, who had listen
ed in silent sympathy as his friend
upoke. "in old times Dick, you
could have earned the 'needful' in
an easier way. Don't you remem
ber the story of the poor t-Md !.'t
who won a o t bv kissim a r;o!!o !

meaus to educate himself, and

affair like that. Dick-eh. Harrv?" !
He concluded, with s!v mischief.
for it was well known in coil.-ti
that Harrv Coidcr. the son of '"a !
millionaire, was. n..tv. ithst.uiditi ' !

'J admit that 1 think Miss Ma

giving Dick a m i

"Well done, I let tie !" cried Dick,
looking admiringly at his girlish

extolling female loveliness, if you
keep on. But you are right in the
simile, Bertie ; for "her cheeks are
like the peach,' and, meaning no
disrespect for the ladv sweet enough
to kiss."
"Boys, listen to me," here spoke
Jiary "Corder. "An idea has

you say?"
A chorus of animated voices burst
forth into 'capital!" "splendid, by
Jove!" "cleverly applied!" "He
hasn't got the courage !"
Dick had listened to Corder's off
er in scornful silence, well knowing
that the arrogant fellow had no idea
of lieing taken at his word ; now he
said:
"You're mistaken, boys; l do
not lack for courage. But, as Ber
tie savs, we live in a practical age.
What would Miss Masoa think !

But the students, now rije h'i;
-the tciict.iri, .rge i him logo in and
win, reiusiut' to lia'.eu to the objec-
I tions which he raised. Suddenly,
he faced his laughing tormentors
' and temptors, and with his dark
j eyes sparkling, said
"I am temnted to vield to this
offer bovs, for only sod and my
hard-working mother and 6ister
know the good such an amouut of

"Kiss Miss Mason now, here be

and sister can rejoice over your
success in being able to go back to
them for the summer, instead of
remaining in Ihe cast to get a job
of harvesting," urged Corder, with
n half sneer.
Onr moment Dick stood liefore

urc erect, tnen ne saui resoiuteiy :
"I accept your oiler, Mr. Corder.
He turned and joined Miss Ma-j

up and down the path, while the j

So, with a smile on her perfect
lips, a half-amused twinkle in her
merry violet eyes, and very be
coming blush, she stationed hcrseif
directly in view of the watching
students, and slightly inclining one
peachy cheek, received Dick
Wynn's kiss with beautiful grace.
Then, with a low bow, Dick left
her and returned to the students,
who had looked on with no stinted
interest and amusement
I say, Dick," said Horry, after
congratulations were over, "It was
not in the bargain that you were to
tell her all about it, you know."
"How do you know I told her !"
asked Dick.
"I am sure that you could not
have kissed her without, for Nina
Mason is too spirited a girl."
"Well, you see, Hprry, I knew
all about the story to which Bertie
referred," replied Dick, with his
good natured laugh, "and and ad
hered to it strictly ; and that is
where I had a decided advantage
over you."
Meanwhile Nina had
turned to
her father and signified her wish to
go home. On their way from the
park she gave him a full explana
tion of the strange scene which
liad been enacted before his eyes a
short time before. The jovial old
fellow laughed heartily over the
episode.
"It's a capital joke on that
young Corder," he remarked.
"He should be held to his oiler in
regard to the money."
Two days after the occurrence
which took place in the Dick
Wynn received a note from Judge
Mason.
"Does the old gentleman intend i
to call me out and shoot me for my
impudence in kissing his dauirh-!
tor'.
D'u
ok interrogated himsoli :;s :
he hastily tore ojten the envelope.
The note ran as follows:
".Mil. Kichak!) Wynn Dear Sir:

on Thurdav evening at eight

Dick was prompt to the tune ap-

0:1 various subjects, ami ere ihe
interview ended .Judge Mason had
learned pretty clearly Dick's posi
tion and prospects for the future.
When the old Judge said good

cordially, savin

After Dick was gone the judge
said to his wife :
"I have taken a decided liking to
that young Wynn. He is composed
of the light kind of metal. He got
ahead of that snobb Corder nicely.
1 sbali niake him an otl'er if he has
any inclination to study law."
Dick did call again. This time
Judge Mason sent for his wife and
daughter to join them. Dick was
formally presented to Miss Nina,
who was quite too thoroughly a
lady to anjK'ar conscious of that
lormer meeting in me park.
Dick called several tunes durin
the remaining , weeks of college.
He was well liked and much res
pected in the Mason household.
Miss Nina, especially, appreciated
his society; lie was so different
from Corder.
Corder paid over to Dick "the
price of a kiss", though he regarded
the growing friendship between
Wynn & Nina with ill-concealed
grace.
Bertie did not join his wealthy
friends in their summer vacation
to the forest; Instead he aceepeted
an invitation from Dick to accom
pany him to his southern home
among the blue hills of Virginia.

Dick Wynn graduated with the

To become a lawyer had long
been Ihe ruling thought of Dick's
life. When Judge Mason offered
to take him into his office to study
his delight knew no limit. It was
beyond his highest "air castle".
Dick educated his beautiful sis
ter Belle, and the wintershe passed
with Nina Mason ; she was a belle
indeed, and she carried many a
heart back to the "Sunny South"
with her.
Dick became a prominent attor
ney, and when full success torch

There was some talk at the time about
the mysterious circumstances sur
rourding his death, but tiie truth did
not come out then. Naval officers
would probably not have talked of it
for publication had not John Mc
Carthy, a Syracuse undertaker who
went out to Samoa to get Hall's body,
revealed some of the main facts.
From Uullan's story, obtained from
his most intimate friends, it seems
that Hall, who was ill, and who was
going home to retire on pension, and
Mullan, who had beeu ordered to
Washington by admiral Kimberly be
cause of disagreement over the Nepsic,
and who was also in poor health,
went Tutuila after the strm, intend
ing to iakc the first steamer passing
there from Australia for San Fran
cisco. It was customary for the Australian
steamers t stop at Leon bay ou Tutu
ila island for mails that were delivered
there from Apia. Hall and Mullan
expected to be taken off at once, rely
ing upon the steamer Zealand ia that
was due at Tutuila within a few days
after their arrival there. Thev were
not taken off by that steamer, al
though the was signaled to stop for
them in the regular wav. The yesscl
that took the two men to Tntuila .eft
them there, apparently anticipating
that the Australian steamer would
stop as usual. Why supplies that
would seem to have been required by
two sick men were not left is not very
clear. The captain of the steamer
claimed the he ivy sea made lauding
difficult. At any rate the two men
saw the steamer depart, taking with
tier all hope that at least one of them

DEATH BY HANGING.
V Sheriff Who Thinks it Cruel
Method of Execution.
James E. Morgan, sheriff of Sher
man county, K. Dakota, is a native
of this city, but has been in the
west over thirty years, lie is here
on a visit to relatives on Statcn
Island, and he finds New York has
undergone a mighty change since
he left it in 18G1 to go to the front.
"I find," said the sheriff, to me
the other night, "that the question
whether a man should be hanged
or executed electrically has been
settled. I am glad to find that
electricity has carried the day, for
I assure you that death by hanging
is intensely painful."
"Why, "sheriff," I said, "is it
possible that vou have been
hanged?"
"(Juite so, and it was no joke.
When the war closed I went west
to seek my fortune, and had a
pretty hard time before I found
anything resembling it. One hard
winter two others and myself went
into Wyoming on a prospecting ex
iiedition, and had to maintain our-!
selves chielly by hunting. Ante
lope were very scarce just then, j
and we suffered considerably from
hunger. One morning we sepa
rated, the better to scour the coun
try, agreeing to meet on a distant
hill at noon. My companions were
hardly out of sight when I shot a
steer, and was in the act of cutting
it up when three fierce-looking
cowbovs s woo lied down upon me. !
I am, as you see, swarthy, and
they took me for a Mexican. As
they also were dirty looking, I
made the same mistake, and sa
luted them in the little Spanish I
had picked up. It happened that
a tall cottonwood tree stood con
veniently close, and without saving
a word one of them threw his lariat
around my neck, tossed the other
end of tke rope over a stout limb,
his two companions pulled upon it
and I was in the twinkling of an
eye going through all the agonies
of hanging. The pain was fright
ful. There was a tremendous
rushing through my ears, the sky
and everything else turned blood
red, pins and needles seemed to be
sticking into every part of my
body, and at the same time the
back of my head felt as if it were
being sandbagged at the rate of
forty strokes a second. How long
it lasted I couldn't tell. To me it
seemed hours. When I regained
consciousness one of my friends
was jwuring whisky dow my throat
and the other was rubbing my
chest with the same liquid. It ap
pears that my comrades had re
turned in time to cut me down be
fore life bad fled, but jus then I
wished they had let me be. The
process of resuscitation was, if
possible, still more agonizing than
the hanging, but as the man con
demned by law docs not suffer in
that regard there is no use in
dwelling upon it." .
"But why did they hang you?"
"They were driving a herd of
cattle to Idaho, and it was one ol
their steers that I had shot. When
my friends arrived and explained
the cowboys cut ine down, ami
when I was ready to receive them
they were profuse in their apolo
gies." "That is how I know that hang
ing is one of the mo-t cruel deaths
you can put a man to.'"
FKAU OT THE OltAVK.
IVoylc Who Arc Afraid They Will
ite Buried AUvo.
Many people who come to us
have a dreadful fear that they may
be buried alive, and while there is
a remote possibility that this might
happen, I have not known a single
instance of it in all my experience.
These people insist on my promis
ing to observe the utmost precau
tion, even so far as to run red-hot
needles into their bodies, and other
barbaric treatment, before they
are finally consigned to the earth".
About four years ago a young man
called ujion me one morning in a
terrible state of agitation. He had
dreamed the night before that his
sister, who had been buried, had
come to life after being placed un
der the sod. I tried to prov to
him the utter, improbability of such
an occurrence, but without avail.
He insisted that her grave should
be opened that he might be satis
fied. I was actually horror-stricken
at the suggestion ;not that I had
the remotest idea that his dream
could prove irue, but the thought
flashed across uiy mind that if it
should be so the shock would make
him a raving maniac.
I tried tr persuade him to defer
the matter until the following day,
but he positively refused. Finally
as there was no other way out of it
I consented, and, having obtained
the necessary permit, the body was
exhumed, and to my inexpressible
relief the absurdity oi the young
man's dream was proven. The et
fect on the young man was magic
al. He looked sorrowfully on the
face of his dead sister a moment,
and then burst, into a flood of tears
and throwing his arm around my
neck, he wept from pure excess of

MO l' NT SHASTA INDIANS.
The Ito wand Arrow Stlil Used By
Them.
You mav not know, but it is a
fact, nevertheless," says William
Meridith, of the McCloud river,
"that small tribes of Indians who
have their homes near Mount
Shasta, still hunt altogether with
bows and arrows. These Indians
are the Wintoons, the Modocs,
Klamaths and Yrekas. I think
there is another tribe or two, also.
They have always preferred the
arrow to the rifle, because it is
noiseless, and they are so unerring
of aim that they shoot just as well
as an expert white man with a
rifle. Their arrow tips are Hakes
of obsidian obtained from the north
side of Mount Shasta. This obsid
ian is high up and hard to get, and
consequently, a couple of pounds
of it are worth from 20 to In
the old days on this -coast, before
iron could be got, the Indians
chipped off this obsidian in an
artful way, by aid of the end of a
split deer horn, whit h was driven
against and partly into it by strik
ing it with a stone. The deer horn
was convex on one one side and
slightly concave on the other, ami
in this way they manage to chip
off a piece of the right shape, and
pointed on the end, for an arrow
head. These rough flakes of ob
sidian, when not immediately
needed, would be buried in the
ground, Occasionally a peck meas
ure of them are yet found, the place
of burial having been lost. The
Indians now split this obsidian
with telegraph wire fitted into the
deerhorn.
A DAILY PAPKK.
80m Opinions on How It Should lie
Managed.
The Chicago paper which has
leen interviewing prominent jeop!e
as to how a daily newspaper should
be managed has produced a sort 01
composite photograph of a daily
paper. In other words, each per
son interviewed stated that he
would exclude all matter which did
not interest him. The result, says
a writer in America, is that a pa
er produced to please all the
people interviewed would some
what resemble the average daily,
as it would comprise various fea
tures. The fault with our daily
papers lies not so much in the
publishers as with the readers. If
the majority of the readers desire a
moral and instructive newspiper
they can have it by bestowing their
patronage upon such a sheet. But
one of the gentlemen interviewed
made a thoroughly sensible reply.
He was a banker, and when asked
what policy he would pursue were
he manager of a great daily news
paper, he replied that he would re
sign at once and let somebody who
knew something about the business
