becauce your grandfather lant

leave my soul to heaven, my
money to my de.tr wife, and my
everlasting enmity to Job Crol

"But, grandmother," s:iil Min

very wicked! And surely, curcly,

Old Mrs. Maple ti'o A her white

"Your trai.dfather was a very
vindictive man, Minnie." said she,
"1 never disobeyed inin living, and
1 never will dipoliey linn dead."
"But, grand moi her," coaxed
Mii.nie, with her fresh cheek
against the old lady's hand, "he
wouldn't know it. How could
he?"
"Child, child, your grandfather
Maple knew everything," said the
old lady, with a fcupewtitioua
glance over the left shoulder, as
something seemed to rustle at the
casement. And I do believe his
ghoet would haunt me if 1 didn't
give good heed to his last words.
No, no; uilhert Crolton can never
be your husband, and you may as
well give up the idea first as last."
And Minnie Maple cried herself
to sleep that night.
"For I never, never can marry
him without grandmother Maple's
consent," she sobbed. "I'll stay
single for his sake until the day of
my death ; Dut I never can dis
obey the kind old soul u ho has
taken a mother's place to me and
brought me up from a baby."
But the next night there was an
apple bee at Deacon liangerticld's
and Minnie Maple was there. Gil
bert Crofton did not make his ap-
earance until lnte.
"Gilbert," eaid the little fiancee,
who sat reproachfully among a
crimson avalanche of applt-s,"w hat
makes you so late .
'"I've been busy," said Gilbert.
"But never mind si long an I'm in
time for the Virginia reel."
And they walk, d home together
through the ciiowdriltp, talking
rapidly ol what might be if onlv
grandmother Maple's admantine
heart could be softened.
But, late though it was, with
the old clock on the stroke of 1,
there was a light shinmg tedly
from the keepingioom windows,
and through the uncurtained case
ment they could sve grandmother
Map'e marching up and down the
room like a sentinel on duty, her
l.igh-beeleu lioots tapping on the
floor, her lingers instinctively
wandering around meide ol her
empty snufl box.
Alinnie hurried into the room.
" Why, grandmother," cried she,
"whatever is the matter? Here are
the logs all burned down to white
ashes and the candlewick gutter
ing, and in such a Mutter as never
was! What has happene!, grand
mother?" Mrs. Maple turned her keen
blue eyes upon her great-granddaughter
witu an expression like
that of a sleep-walker.
"Minnie, come in and shut that
door. Is that you GilbertCrofton,
the great-grandson of Job? Come
jou in also. Children," with her
old hands shaking as if paley-
stricken, ' I've sen a ghost:'
"Impossible!" cried Gilbert
Crofton.
' Dear grandmother, you must
have teen dreaming," soothed
Minnie, creepingjip to her side
and drawing her dow n into the
old arm-chair beside the hearth.
"Iireanr.ng," shrieked the old
woman ; "I was as wide awake a
1 am at this moment. I had been
over to see Mrs. Muir's sick child,
and it was close on 10 o'clock w hen
I got back. And the minute 1
crossed the threshold I had that
queer feeling of some one being in
the room creep all over me. And
there, eu'e enough, the chair op
posite, w h ;re he used to sit thirty
vears ag'j, was jour great-grand-f.ither
Maple, with his old cue wig
and his suit of butternut brown,
and the veiy green spectacles he
iiaed to wear for his weak eyes.
'"Aud he took his pipe cut ol his
mouth and looked at me just as
your grandfather Maple haB looked
at me a thoneand, thousand
times."
"And says I, 'Reuben, is that
you?' "
"And ays he,' Yes, Lois it is.' "
"And ays I, 'Oh, Keuben, what
brings you hack to this world?'"
"And says he. 'To wipe out the
stains of a wicked world.'"
"And say? I. 'Are you happy
Reuben?'
"And says he, 'Yes, that's the
reason I want others to be.'
'And then I began to tremble
all over, and says I : 'Is it any
thing I can do Reuben ?'
"And says he: 'There's no more
offending nor giving offense in the
other world, Lois and Job Crof ton's
soul and mine are at variance no
longer.' fays he: 'Let there be
peace, Lois, and let the young man
Gilbert be your grandchild's hus
band.' "And then he knocked th9 bowl
of his pipe on the edge of the and
iron, as I've seen him do so often ;
and he got up, and he walked out
of the room, just for all the world
like a living creature.'
"I've often heard as ghosts can
go through a key hole, but your
grandfather Maple's ghost opened
the door and forgot to shut it. ho
when I roused up enough to know
w hat was going on sround me the
floor was covered with snow that
had drifted in, and the cmidle was
blown out."

A New ork Girl' Nerve.
A b'ack French poodle was trot
ting down Fifth avenue on a
breezy, bright afternoon with a
line, straight young woman. The
dog seemed proud of his mistress
and the girl was proud of her dog.
Whi!e till was ieaceful and danger
seemed nowhere nigh, a rickety
and crt aky covered wagon, drawn
bv a pitiable wreck of a horse, and
having on its seat two repulsive
young nien, came around a corner.
One of the young toughs leaped to
the g oun.l and made a quick
plunge for tiie dog, cab bing it by
t!;e hind leg and whirling it above
his l ead in a circle, running as he
did so toward the rear of J i
wagon. Quicker than it takes to
say so the young woman was in
fron? of the young tongh with onr
hand clutching his coat collar and
I he other holding the muzzle of a
silver-mounted smelling bottle to
his face.
'"You drop my dog or I'll shoot
you,'" said the girl.
Tre young fellow peered out of
his small eyes into the determined
fa.-e lefore him, and us he attemp
ted to shake the girl's baud from
his collar said :
"Aw, wotyergiven me, anyway?
I'on't yt-r see we're der do
catchers, an you ain't got no right
to have yer purn out without a
muzzle? Der dog" goes alougwid
us, see?"
The girl's face took on a fiercer
and still more ominous look,
t he dog, still in the grasp of the
man, was twisting to get away
and yelping with pain.
"If you do not diop the dog.
By this time people were coming
UD to see the disturbance. The
young woman put the bogus
weaon into the small chatelaine
dag that she wore, blew a small
silver whistle, and, accompanied
by her joyous dog, pursued her
morning walk seienely and with
stately grace. New York Sun.
Dehorning iu central Africa.
"It may inerst some of the
disputants on this snbject," says
the North Hrtish Agriculturist,
"to know that during his recent
journey across Africa, Mr.H, M.
Stanley found dehorning practiced
hvsonie of the tribes in the heart
of the 'Dark Continent.'not how
ever, to prevent the animals goring
one another, but with the object
of allowing them to forage in the
jungle, where horns are a decided
impediment. Writing of the cat
tle at Kavallis, situated at the
southern end of the Allah Uyawya,
Mr, Stanley thus descrines them:
They are almost equal in size to
English oxen, and are humpless.
The horns are of medium length,
hut some are d'stinguisbeu by un
usual length of horn. The cattle
of Usowgora and Unyoro are
mostly all of a hornless or hump
less breed, ami principally of fawn
co'or, w hile those of Onkort have
immensely long horns and hides
of variegated hue. It is said that
the cattle are made hornless bv
burning them w ith fire, with a
view to enable them to penetrate
jungles."

In another interview Mr. Gould,

be done bv a slight advance in
