c. .i.cfd to be a black siik neckerchief of the
iliMh' . Hiler, the result was funereal,
d: . ii- a, but practically iui'ffective.
" i on were a good wife to Urother Hiler,"
ratu 'lie young man gently. "Everybody

"or'.lr.iiert tlie widow, bringing her work

"It s suthin' to lay to heart in the lonely

the (!ldi'.t, that vain anil useless that he can't
c,-n tote the baby round while 1 do the
work of a hired man."
"Its a hard trial sister Hiler," said
Gideon, "but the Lord has his appointed
time."
"Yer talcin' a Christian view of yer own
disappointment, Brother Gideon," she said,
with less astringency of manner; "but every
heart kunweth its own sorrnr. I'll bo
gwUtn' fiippor now that baby's gleepin'
sour ', itnd ye'll sit by and eat."
"11 you will let me help you, Sister HUer,"
W U .voung man with a cheerfulness that
I, ;!fd any overwhelming heart affection,
ai.d awakened in the widow a feminine cu
'iosity as to his real feelings towards Meely.
Hut her further (juestioning was met with a
frank. Riinableii'nd simple brevity that was
as puzzling as the most artful pariphrase ol
tact. Accustomed as she was to the loqua
city of grief and the confiding prolixity of
disappointed lovers, sho could not under
, stand tier guest's quiescent attitude. Her
nurinslty. however, soon gave way to the
baoiuial cniiteuiplntion of lier own sorrows,
mid she e, ild not forego the opportune pre
sence ol a sympathizing auditnrtowliom she
could rc'ii ve tier feelings. The preparation
iiir the nvi niiig meal was therefore accom
panied by a dreary iiionotoneof lamentation,
aim bewailed her lost youth, her brief court
ship, the struggles of her early married life,
her premature widowhood, her penurious
and helplcu existence, the disruption of all
her present ties, the hopelessness of the
future. Sue rehearsed tliij unending plaint
of Ihnsi' long evenings, set to the music of
tiie p ,iii'ss wind around her bleak dwelling,
with .iotmlhiiig of its stridiilnus reiteration.
The y, unc: man listened unit replied with
dot'liy Kf ieiiting eyes, but without pausing in
the inateiiul aid that lie was quietly giving
hor. He had removed the cradle of the
!'-e.ing child to the bedroom, quieted tlio
flu-Men wakefulness of "Pinkny." rear
laiigudtho straggling furniture of the sit
li' ., with much order mid tidiness, re
p. hinges of a rebellious shutter and
n of an unyielding door, anil yet had
.rently retained an unabated interest in
. spoken woes. Surprised once more into
recognizing this devotion, Sister Ililer ab
ruptly arrested her monologue
"Well, if you ain't the handiest man I
eror sexl about tlio house 1"
"Am Ir" Gideon, with suddenly
sparkling eycs.."i)0 you really think bo?"
"1 do." '
"Then you don't know mw glad I am."
Ilis frank face so uniniMtaltbly showed Ills
simple gratification tlmt tlio widow, after
gazing at him for a moment, was maidenly
seized with a bewildering fancy. Tils lirst
effect of it was tlio abrupt withdrawal of lint
eyes, then a sudden effusion of blood to bet
forehead that finally extended to her check
bikies, and then an Interval of forgettulness,
wdVire she remained with a plate held vague
ly In her hand. When she succeeded at last
inputting it on tlio table instnid of the young
man's lap, sho said In a voice quite unlike
her own:
"Shol"
' "I mean It," said Gideon, cheerfully.
After a pause, In which he uimstoiitatioiisijr
rearranged the table which the widow was
abstractedly disorganizing, lie said gently,
"Alter tea, when you're not so much flust
ered with work and worry, and more com
posed In spirit, we'll have a little talk, Kister
If iler. Pin in no hurry to-night, and If you
don't mind I'll make myself comfortable' In '
the barn with my blanket until sun-up to
morrow. 1 can get up early enough to do
some odd chores round the lot before I go."
"You know best, Brother Gideon," said
the widow, faintly, "and If you think It's
the Lord's will, anil no speshal trouble to
you, so do. Hut mikes alive I lis time I tidied
myself a little," sho continued, lilting one
linnd to her hair, while with the other sho
endeavored to fasten a buttonless collar;
"leavin' alone the vanities o' dress, llet
much as one kin do to keep a clean rag on
with the children cllinliin' over ye. Sit by
nd I'll be back In a mlnit."
Lnte that evening Solby Ililer woke up in
Ills little truckle bed, listening to the rising
midnight wind, which In Ills childish fancy
lie confounded with tho sound of voices tlmt
caino through tho open door of tlio living
room, llo recognized the deep voice of tho
young minister, Gideon, and the occasional
tearful responses of his mother, and lie was

heard a step, and tho young preacher seemed

made a movement as if to stop him. Put tne
elder quickly restrained his hand. "He isn't
goin to run away." he v hisiered. "Look,"
he added, as Gideon a moment later reap
peared mounted and equipped.
"Do you think we'll he in time?" asked
tho young preacher as they rode quickly
away in the direction of the tules.
The ounger repressed a laugh; tiie other
answered grimly, "l reckon."
"Anil is lie conscious of ids danger?"
"1 reckon."
Gideon did not speak airain. Hut as the
onus of that silence seemed to rest uxm the
otiier two, tne last speaker, after a few mo
ments' silent and rapid riding, continued
abruptly, "You don't seem curious?"?"
"Of what?" said Gideon, lilting his soft
eyes to the speaker. "You tell me of a
brother at the point of death who seeks the
Lord through an humble vessel like myself.
He will tell ine the rest."
A silence still more constrained on the
part of tho two strangers followed, which
they endeavored to esc. ipe from by furious
riding; so that in half an hour the parly had
reached a point where the titles began to sap
the arid plain, while beyond them broadened
the lagoons of the distant river. In the fore
ground, near a clump of dwarfed willows, a
camp-fire was burning, around which fifteen
or twenty armed men wPre collected, their

containing the wounded m ill, Gideon, Jack
Hamlin and tlie snrr-'on cn-jit slowly through
the streets of Martinez i.n.l st-qi;ie. before
tlio door of the "Palm- Ito Shades." The
upper door of this saloon was occupied bv
Mr. Hinnlin as his privaf lo:l:rin:rs. and was
lifted up with tin- usual Injury, and more
than the usual faslidioiis.iess of Ins extrava
gant class. As tint dusty and travel-worn
party trod the suit carpets and brushed aside
silken han-'iiis in their slow progress with
their hc!p!os.s burden to the la"i:-canopied
and snowy coir-h of the young gambler, it
seemed almost a profanation of some fene
nine seclusion. Gideon, to whom such luxu
ry was unknown, was profoundly troubled,
T lie voluptuous ease and sensuousness, the
relineniciits of a life of irresponsible in
dulgence, n feet ;il hiin wilh a physical ter
ror to which in his late moment of real peril
he had been a stranger; tlio gilding and
mirrors blinded his eyes: even the taint per
fume seemed to him an nnhailowvd Incense,
and turned him sick and giddy. Accustomed
lis he had been to disease ami misery in its
humblest places and in anest fauroundimrs.
tlie wounded desperado lying in laces and
(in!) lineii seemed to uiin monstrous and un
natural. It required all his solf-abneiration.

horses picketed in an outer circle guarded j all the instinctive tact 'which was horn of his
by two mounted sentries. A blasted cotton
wood with a single black arm extended over
tlie tules stood ominously against tlie dark
sky.
The circle ojiened to receive them and
closed again. Tlie ejder man dismounted,
Rud, leading Gideon to tlie blasted cotton
wood, pointed to tho pinioned man seated at
Its foot with an armed guard over him. Ho
looked up at Gideon witli an amused smile.
"You said it was a dying man," said
Gideon, recoiling.
"He will be a dead man in half-an-hoiir,"
returned tlie stranger.
"And you?''
"We are the Vigilantes of Alamo. This
man," pointing to the prisoner "is a gamb
ler who killed a man yesterday. We hunted
him here, tried him an liour ai;o, and found
him guilty. Tne last man wo hung here,
three years ago, aslted lor a parson. We
brought hiin tlie man who used to live where
we found you. So we thought we'd give this
man the same show and brought you."
"And if i refuse?' said Gideon.
The leadershrugufed his siioulders. "That's
bis lookout, not ours. We've given him the
chance. Drive ahead hoys," lie added,
turning to the others; ''the pirson allows ho
won't take a hand."
"One moment-," said Gideon, in despera
tion, "ono liniment for the sake of that God
you have brought, me here to invoke in be
half of this wretched man. Ono moment for
tlie sake of Him in whose presence you
must stand one day ns he does now." With
passionate earnestness he pointed out the
vindictive impulse they were iiiislakin;
divine justice; with pathetic fervency ho
fell upon his knees ami implored their mercy
for the culprit. I'ut in vain.
"Yer wastin' time on us," said tiio loader
dryly; "wastin' liis lime. Hadn't you bet
ter talk to him?"
Gideon rose lo his I'eef, pale and cold, "lie
may have something to confess. May I
speak Willi hiin alone?" he said gently.
The leader motioned to the sentry to fall
back. Gideon placed himself boforo tlio
prisoner so that in tho faint light of the
camp-tire tho man's figure was partly hid
den by ids own. "You meant well with
your little bluff, pardiier," said the prisoner,
not unkindly, "hut they've got the cards to
win."
"Kneel down witli your hack to me," said
Gideon in a low voice. The prisoner fell
on his knees. At the same time ho felt
Gideon's hand and tlie gliding of sleol be
hind his hack, and the severed cords hung
loosely on his arms and legs.
"When 1 lift my voice hi (iod, brother,"
said Gideon, softly, "drop on ;, our face and
crawl as fur as you can In a straight line In
my shallow, then break for the tules. 1 will
stand between you and the first- fire."
"Are you mad'."' said Hie prisoner. "Do

ter and kissed them too. Then he slowly
re-entered tlie living room. Lifting himself
softly on his elbow, Selby saw him go up to
ward his mother, who was crying, with her
head on tlio bible, and kiss her also on the
forehead. Then he sal'cl "Good night," and
the front door closed, and Selby heard his
footsteps crossing tlio lot toward the barn.
Hts mother was still sitting Willi Iter lace
burled in her hands when lie fell asleep.
Sho sat bj the dying embers of the lira un

and wiped her eyes. "Kfs a good tiling,"

looking in upon her sleeping children; "el's

Although Gideon Dean contrived to find a
nest for Ids blanket Im the moldy straw of
the unfinished barn loft lie could not sleep.
He restlessly watched (lie stars through tho
cracks of the boarded roof, and listened to
the wind that made tho half-open structure
s vocal us a sea-shell, until past midiiinht.
Once or twice lie had fancied he heard iim
trump of horsehoofs on the fur-off trail, mid
now It seemed to approach nearer, mingled
with the sound of voices. Gideon raised his
head and looked through the doorway of tho
loft He was not mist ikon; two men had
halted In the road Indole the house, and were
examining It as If uncertain if it were tlie
dwelling they were seeking, and were hesi
tating If they should louse the Inmates.
Thinking he might spare (he widow this
disturbance to her slumbers and possibly
some alarm, he rose quickly, and, descend,
tug to the enclosure, walked toward die
house. As he api'ioachisl, the men advanced
to meet him, and by accident or design
ranged themselves on either side. A glance
Showed him they were stringers to tho lo
cality. "We're lookin' for the preacher that lives
hero," said the one who seemed to he tho
elder. "A man by the name o' Hiler, I

"Brother Hiler lias been dead two years,"
responded Gideon. "His widow and child
ren live here."
The two men looked at each other. The
younger one laughed; the elder mumbled
something sbout Its being "three years ago,"
and then turning suddenly on Gideon, said:
"P'r'aps you'r a preacher?"
"Iam."
"Gan you come to a dying manP'
"I will."
The two men again looked at each other.
'But," continued Gideon softly, "you'll

"I reckon I was never belter titled to die

Ilis hand. Alter a pause he added in u lower
tone, "1 can't pray hid I think," he hesi
tated; "I think 1 could manase to ring in in
a liyniu."
"Will you try, brother'."'
"Yes."
With their bunds llghtlyclusped together,
Gideon lll'led his gentle voice. The air was
K 'mon one, familiar in the local religious
gatherings, and after tlie tir.d verse one or
two of the sullen lookers-on joined not un
kindly in the refrain, lint, as lie went on,
the air ami words seemed to oiler a vague

of all again opened Ids eyes and sought
Gideon's hand, ho forgot it all. Happily,
Hamlin, who had been watching hiin with
wondering but critical eyes, mistook his con
cern. "Don't you worry about that gin-mill
and hash-gymnasium down stairs,"- he said.
"I'd give the proprietor Sl.iXfO to shut up shop
b long as this tiling lasts." That this was
done from sonic delicate sense of respect to
tlie preacher's domiciliary presence, and not
entirely to secure complete quiet and seclu
sion for tlie invalid, was evident from tlie
fact that Mr. Hamlin's drawing and dining
rooms, and even tlie hall, were fillod with
eager friends and inquirers. It was discom
posing to Gideon to lind himself almost an
equal subject of interest and curiosity to the
visitors. Tlio story of his Biinple devotion
had lost nothing by report; hats were dolled
In Ids presence that might have grown to
their wearer's heads; tlie boldest eyes
dropped as be passed by; he had only to put
his inje face out of the bedroom door and
the loil- osi discussion, heated by drill r
affection, f dl to a whisper. The surgeon,
who had recognized tlie one dominant wish
of the hopelessly sinking man, gravely re
tired, leaving Gideon a lew simple instruc
tions' and directions for their use. "He'll
last as long as he lias need of you," he said
respeellully. "My art, is only second here.

before, turned his fading look almost tu

most of his time did not transpire, but at tlie
end of an hour, whou the dying man had
again lapsed into unconsciousness, lie softly
opened the door of the sitting-room.
Hamlin started hastily to his feet llo
had cleared tlie room of his visitors and was
ulnir. lie turned a moment toward a win
dow before he faced Gideon witii inquiring
but curiously shining eyes.
"Well'.'" ho said hesitatingly.
"Do you know Kate Summers?" asked
Gideon.
Hamlin opened his brown eyes. "Yes."
"Can vou send for her?" "What, heret"
"Yes. here." "What for?"
"To marry hiin," said Gideon, gently.
"There's no tinio to lose."
"To murru lilin?'' "lie wishes it.':'
"Hut say 0 ennui, now," said Hamlin
eonliileiilinlly, leiiiilng hack with his hands
on Ihe top of a chair. "Ain't Ibis playing it
