The terrible a tident that happened to Peter Daugherty, the “trackwalker,’' gave to many readers a new word in the vocabulary of 'trades and occupations."

Visit ing hr >thers fraternally invited. Neither one of iA looked the other in the face. So far as I was concerned myself I had come to port, but I hail still Alan, to whom I was so much beholden, on my hands, and I felt besides a heavy charge in the matter of the murder and James of the Glens. On both these heads I unbosomed to Rankeillor the next morning, walking to and fro about six of the clock before the house of Shaws, and with nothing in view but the fields and woods that had been my ancestors’ and were now mine. Even as 1 spoke on these grave subjects my eye would take a glad bit of a run over the prospect and my heart jump with pride. About my clear dnty to my friend the lawyer had no doubt; 1 must help him out of the country at whatever risk, but in the case of James he was of a dif ferent mind. • “Mr. Thomson," said he, "is one thing, Mr. Thomson’s kinsman quite another. I know little of the facts, but I gather that a great noble, whom we will call, if yon like, the D. of A. [the Duke of Argyle], has some concern and is even supposed to feel some animosity in the matter. The D. of A. is doubt less an excellent nobleman, bat, Mr David, timeo qui nocere deos. If you interfere to balk his vengeance yon shonld remember there is one way to shut your testimony ont, and that is to put you in the dock. There you will be in the same pickle as Mr. Thomson’s kinsman. Yon will object that yon are innocent; well, but so is he. And to be tried for yonr life before a highland jury on a highland quarrel, and with a highland jndjjj npon the bench would be a brief transition to the gallows.” Now I had made all these reasonings before and found no very good reply to them, so I pnt on all the simplicity I could. “In that case, sir," said I, “I would just hava to be hanged—would I not?’ “My dear boy,” cries he, “go in God’s name and do what, yon think is right. It is a poor thought that at my time of life I shonld be advising yon to choose • Urn safe and shameful, and 1 take it back with an apology. Go and do ygur dnty, and lie hanged, if yon must, like a gentleman. There are worse things in the world than to be hanged.” “Not many, sir,” said I, smiling. “Why, yes, sir,” he cried, “very many. And it would be ten times better for your nncle (to go no further afield) if he were dangling decently upon a gibbet.' - Thereupon he turned into the house (still in a great fervor of mind, so that I saw I had pleased him heartily), and there he wrote me two letters, making his comments on them as he wrote. “This,” says he, “is to my bankers, the British Linen company, placing a credit to yonr name. Consult Mr. Thomson; he will know of ‘ways,’ and you, with this credit, can supply the means. I trust you will be a good hus band of yonr money, bnt in the affair of a friend like Mr. Thomson, I would be even prodigal. Then, for his kinsman, there is no better way than that yon ghould seek the advocate, tell him yonr tale, and offer testimony. Whether hr may take it or not, is quite another mat ter and will turn on the D. of A. Now that you may reach the lord advocate well recommended, I give you here a letter to a namesake of yonr own—the learned Mr. Balfour, of Pilrig—a man whom I esteem. It will look better that yon should be presented by one of your own name, and the laird i, Pilrig is much looked np to in the faculty and stands with Lord Advocate Grant. 1 wonld not trouble him, if I were yon, with any particulars, and (do you know?) I think it would be needless to refer to Mr. Thomson. Form yonrself upon the laird, he is a good model; when yon deal with the advocate be discreet, and in all these matters may the Lord guide yon, Mr. David!” * Thereupon he took his farewell and set ont with Torrance for the ferry, while Alan and I turned our faces for the city of Edinburgh. In the meanwhile Alan and 1 went slowly forward npon onr way, having little heart either to walk or speak. The same thought was uppermost in both— that we were near the time of our part ing, and remembrance of all the bygone days sat npon us sorely. We talked in deed of what shonld be done, and it was resolved that Alan shcnld keep to the country, biding now here, now there, but coming once in a day to a particular place where I might be able to commu nicate with him, either in my own per son or by messenger. In the meanwhile I was to seek ont a lawyer, who was an Appin Stewart, and a man therefore to be wholly trusted, and it shonld be his part to find a ship and arrange for Alan’s safe embarkation. No sooner waa this business done than the words seemed to leave ns, and though 1 wonld seek to jest with Alan under the name of Mr. Thomson, and he with me on my new elothee and my estate, you could feel very well that we were nearer tears than laughter. We came the byway over the hill of Coratorphine, and when we got near to the place called Rest-and be-thankful, and looked down on Coratorphine bogs and over to the city and castle on the hill we both stopped, for we knew, with out a word said, that we had come to where our were parted.

I hail (a guinea or two of Rankeillor s). 1 so that he shonld not starve in the mean while, and then we stood a space and looked over at Edinburgh in silence. “Well, goodby,” said Alan, and held ont his left hand. “Goodby,” said I, and gave the hand a little grasp and went off down hill. Neither one of us looked the other in the face, nor so long as he was in my view did 1 take one back glance at the friend I was leaving. But as I went on my way to the city I felt so lost and lonesome that 1 could have found it in my heart to sit down by the dike and cry and weep like a baby. It was coming near noon when I passed in by the West Kirk and the Grassmarket into the streets of the capi tal. I let the crowd carry me to and fro, and yet all the time what I was think ing of was Alan at Rest-and-be-thank- ful, and all the time there was a cold gnawing in my inside like a remorse for something wrong. The hand of Providence brought me in my drifting to the very doors of the British Linen company's bank. [Just there, with his hand upon his fortune, the present editor inclines for the time to say farewell to David. How Alan escaped, and what was done abont the murder, with a variety of other de lectable particulars, may be some day set forth.] THE END. , yes;i A trackwalker is a fellow who walks the tracks. See? Just as tasy! Now ask me something real hard." If pressed for a closer explanation of the long word’s meaning, the citi- sen proceeds to get facetious: “Oh, watcher trying to ring in on me now? A trackwalker is—a trackwalker. When the carnivorous tramp is hi nted from his lair in one city he emigu tes to an other On the way thither, my frier d, he is a valnablp specimen of the genus trackwalker When the manager of an ’Uncle Tom's Cabin” troop folds up his pocketbook and. like an Arab, silently steals away, leaving sweet little Eva. good old Uncle Tom and religions Miss Ophelia to swear at his memory for their salaries, why then they are very likely to become trackwalkers. Then, again, yon might call hucksters who drive their wagons np and down the street car tracks track hawkers. He, he, hel See? Which all goes to show that the real bona fide trackwalker is comparatively an nnknown cog in the great nachine of the world, if that cog wat suddenly taken ont of place and thrown away the world would very soon discoi er its loss .From the crashing of wrecked trains wonld come the death rattle ol the dying; from the ruddy glare of burning cars wonld come the shrieks of tortured wretches pinned beneath heavy timbers, and the ene cry sounded from end to end of the land would be, “The trackwalker deserted his trust."

He only gets $! .50 a day here in the west, a id in some eastern districts still less. Ha carries a wrench and a hammer, and now and then stops to tighten a bolt in a rail or drive a spike into a tie. He trumps along thus for twelve hours out of tue twenty- four. and at the end of the day "can sleep without rocking." A reporter found Dangherty yesterday in one of the pleasant wards of St. Mary’s Infirmary Bending over him. with her sweet face full of sympathy, was one of the sisters of the order. “He’s doing very nicely," she softly said, ‘hut must not be excited.” ‘Yon see. It’s niy shoulder tuerenow," exclaimed Daughterly, raising his left ann and dropping it to the si oet again with a shudder of pain “It seems as though it was nnder a trip hammer and the hammer was pounding for all it was worth. Still it isn’t as bad now as it was. Good gracious, but that old engine did hit me a clip!" ‘How did it happen?’ “All fired sudden. 1 wat walking along between the tracks, peaceable as you please, when down rolls a train on the left hand. Being afraid that the steam or something would hit me 1 "stepped into the right hand track Whack! Biff! Yours truly g"t it in the neck sure as yon live. An engine was flying down the right hand t acks, you see and I merely tried to stop it by put ting my shoulder to the wheel.' I don’ remember what happened then. The lights went out. When I arrived in sight of myself again 1 was he. e. ‘My walk Is from Carr str *>t to the other end of the bridge in Macisou. I’m not complaining of the walk it all, un derstand. They always treated me white as long as f’ve been working for 'em. which is only a conple of months. Pm Just a little sorry that the company is such a new one. They haven’t got any hospital of their own yet, you know That's why Pm here. Of course Pm be ing treated splendidly here—j ast as if 1 was at home—but, yon see, 1 don't know exactly who's going to pay taese goc’ sisters for taking care of me Pd hate to see em do aU their work for noth mg" Daugherty gazed reverently at the cru cifix hanging on the opposite wall before answering. "Speaking of the work, it's all right. I get fl.50 a day, jus the same renuncia- | as the other laborers on the read, and it isn't as hard as digging. All you’ve got to do is to he sure and go ovei yonr sec tion as many times as you’re ordered, and see that the rails are in pro per shape. If yon find a loose bolt you take your pinchers and tighten it. If you find a spike poking its head into the air, give it a clip with yonr hammer. That's all there is to the business. If yon shonld happen to find something out of whack and can’t fix it yonrself. why, yon go for help; that’s all. Yon see, I know just enough abont trackwalking to do my work well. I have never had any of the ad vent ares that some of the men have.

The great oaks at Waverly, Mass., are survivals of an oak forest that must have existed in that region, according to the geologists and students of trees, as far back as the Tenth century. They bear every evidence of great age, and an elm tree in the neigborhood, now almost dismantled, with its groat limbs lyirx on the ground and nearly all of its branches decayed, is the most venerable object in the line of trees that can prob ably be displayed in New England. It Is well worth a visit to Waverly just to see this venerable elm. It is immense n. the size of its trunk, and its dignity in decay is very impressive. The dozen oak trees in the neighborhood are of the sort that attain a very great age and that maintain their virility uninfpaired. We know of only one other oak tree in New England that can be compared with them. That is'located in Ipswich, and is larger and more venerable appar ently than any of the Waverly oaks, and that and the Waverly oaks, we are glad to know, have been inspected by the state park commissioners and are likely to be preserved. It is worth one's while to see and study these majestic oaks. They are seen to great advantage in the winter, when their rugged limbs are bare and their immense strength is revealed, and in summer, when they are covered with foliage, they are objects of wonderful beauty.—Boston Herald. Ttie Poetry of Shopping;. The poetry of shopping comes in with those shoppers who are starved for ex citement, variety and beauty at home. It is nop lawful; they have no right to do it; bnt they have no society to satisfy a hunger for the beautiful with jewels and fine dresses on others if not on themselves. They esmnot afford the theaters; they go to the shops. They look at the laces and long; they go to the embroidery counters and fancy; they educate themselves in the matter of India shawls; they seek the silkroom, brilliant with gas lights and electric lights, and look at brocades fit for the court of a princess, at silks whose flamboyant scarlets burn in the illnmi- natiou, whose tender blue is the blue of spring skies half robbed of rain, whose green is the breaking wave of the sea. whose violet is the hue of mountains far away in autumn mists, and they picture themselves or those they love robed and radiant in these tissues. And if the poor shopman is weary when they go away, they tnemselves are refreshed for a long season of further denial and tion.—Harper’s Bazar. Penalty of a Small Vice. Little vices have their inconveniences, as a Parisian burglar has just discovered to his cost. It appears that the other night a shop on one of the boulevards was broken into, and a strong box was found in the morning wrenched open and with the contents missing. At first it was thought that the burglar had left no trace, but on a careful examination of the floor a piece of chewed tobacco was discovered. This caused suspicion to rest on a former employee who whs given to nsing tobacco in that particular way. He was sought out. and eventually such proofs of his guilt were forthcom ing that he was convicted.—London News. going"abroad"stid all other 'pereons top- | the flange, of the rails It’s like ping at home, are champagne, ice and anything else; if you stay witMt youll aerated water, but in consequent, of ad- ^ vanning years, I always forget the selt- xer.”—Exchange. uid It become* a sort of instinct.”—St. Louis Globe-Democrat A Medical Decision In I Till.
