THE ROBBER’S HOARD ■‘If this grows much worse, had we not better turn out of the road and apply nt the Kenneths for shelter for the night?” said the husband, eying gloomily the straining of the hones as they endeavored to lift the heavy carriage out of the black mud of the Mississippi rood. • > But the wife gavo a shudder and replied: "Oh, no, never there, Ar thur. You know they say’’—here lowering her voice lest the negro outrider should hoar—‘‘that old Colo nel Kenneth and the 1x>ys all belong to Murrel s band, and 1 for one be lieve it” “Well, I do not. There is no more harm in the old colonel than m me: Think, Man*, a. Mexican veteran— burely he is not one to hold. with such a bandit as John Murrel and his gang of cutthroats. Still we will try It awhile longer, though the next turning leads to tho Kenneth place, and you would be assured of a good night's- root, and tho Lord only knows when we will get into Carrol ton at this rate of progress." . I The lady still shook her head, and leaning from the window enebur aged the negroes to make greater ef foils to extricate the panting horses. There was a sudden heave of the body of tho vehicle, and as' the wheels emerged once more, a crack, and the driver cried, “Dar, now, the axle done brak, mars ter, an what we gwine do?” "That settles It, Mary,” said her husband. “We can go no farther.” Then calling to the men he or dered them to cut loose the two front horses from tho carriage and bring them to the side, where he and his wife might mount. This done he led the way to thb 'plapta tion, the mansion house of whli'ch showed its chimneys just over th^ tops of the trees, wliile behind rode the servants on their own steeds or the other carriage horses. As they approached the house a group ot dark browed men were seen congre gated ou its wide vine hung porch, and a fire of curious glances was turned on them. A tall old man with a snow white flowing beard rose from his seat in the midst of the crowd and came forward to take Arthur Shannon's hand that gentleman held out . his own, saying: .«• "This is Colonel Kenneth, is it not i I have beard much of you. sir, much from our mutual friend, Judge Ir ring of Jackson, and have ventured to throw my wife and myself on your hospitality. Our carriage has met with an accident." “I thank the accident that has sent me such guests,” said the old man, with the punctilious courtesy'that marked the antebellum southern aristocrat "Come in at once. My daughters will welcome Mrs. Shan son, and supper will be served in half an hour." * fie led the way into the house, with no notice of the men ou the porch, who were all gone when the Shannons comedown to supper in the splendid old fashioned .hall The Kenneth "boys" alone remyiutod. They were fine looking, weU grown young men of silent yqt alert man ner. saying little, while Colonel Ken neth's daughters, two dark eyed girls of 17 or 18, rarely spoke except to invite the attention of their guests to semt dish. It was not until Mrs. Shannon had retired with her hus band to their chamber that shAland even suffer her thoughts to dwell on what she suspected, but on her ex- preesiag this her husband laughed and told her to go to sleemaa they, hod a long jouraejt before -fhen on the morrow. But Bleep was far from the little woman's eyelid^, apd laf awflke thinking of many things until at last her quick ear caught the sound of 13 or 20 hoikes being ridden into the yard before the bouse, and springing from the bed she ran to the window, and peeping out saw the men ot tha afternoon dismount and enter. Children Cry for Pitcher's Castork. fcoci: a murmur of voices au nonneed to her that a parley was bo tug held in the room below, and a fever to overhear what was being said took possession of her. She coutijl see a figure pacing up and down before tlioliouse, ovideirtly on guard. so that the congress below nttist fear interruption or capture. She quietly opened the door and stole down the dark stairs leading to tho second floor, and which wore uu- lighted, n.i was tho hall below.. She paused at the door under which a glimmer of light told her was that of tho council chamber and listened. “No, I will not have it. They are my guests,” said the voloe of her host, and a low murmur told that the appeal to tho laws of hospitality had found answer In many breasts, but a tone that made her start took up flio question. It was that of a neighbor of her owu, a man from the oast, but then this band num bered members from every quarter. "Well,: boys, we’ro in’ this thing for business and yof sentiment, and 1 happen to know that Arthur Shan con carries over &1.000 m bills about bis waist in a belt.” ■ "The senor Speaks truth. - We are engage iu die for de rilvare, not for de fine talk and feelings. Eef dis gentl’mau- ha--- money, it is our busi ness to tele care of it for him,” said tho sibilant tones of a Mexican. "It will go to swell that little nest egg—is not that what y° u people say?—hidden down in the swamp.” There was a sudden exclamation and a cry of "Tlie chief! the chief!” as a man swung himself in nt the window opening out on the yard. He had passed th<5 sentinel with a muttered signal word, and thus taken his followers by surprise. Murrel, the celebrated robber chieftain of the south before tho war, stood before them, his keen black eyes glancing alxmt him and noting every face. "What is tho dispute?” ho asked, and when Colonel Kenneth placed it before him answered briefly: "Hos pitality protects him. Now, men, there is more serious business before us tonigbt'. The governor has of fered $20,000 reward for tho betrayal of the band, $10,000 for mo dead or alive, preferably dead, and $2,000 in gold for each of you if taken sepa rately.” Ho paused and looked about once more; then, with bis eyes narrowed to mere lines of lurid light, went on: -"And Fredericks h as played the judas and sold us.” • ■ , Every man letq>ed to his feet with a deep curse and drew the knife at his belt as if eager to draw it across the traitor’s throat, but an uplifted band staid them. “He knows the hiding place of tho treasure—it must bo moved at once. A imember 6f the police of Jackson gaye me warning, and I rode hither tonight, only an hour in advance of tho officers. No time is to bo lost. Select three of your number to go with me to assist in removing the gold and plate—that will be enough -the others will be advised of what we do later on. Tho rest, besides the three, disperse at. once to your homes or ride for Texas, as you think there is or is not proof against you. You all know how to commu nicate with me if necessary.” The three were hastily chosen, and the others went noiselessly out, the figure in the hall shrinking behind the door as it swung open. Armed thep. with a lantern, Murrel and his workmen stole across the plantation toward the river, and after them Went, as stealthily os a panther, the woman. But the rough ground pained her feet, thrust only in bed room slippers, and exhausted she drew her dark Woolen robe about her and leaned against a tree, watch ing still the dancing of the lantern. Then the light sailed over the wa‘er, and she knew the men were carry ing the treasure out into the river in a skiff. A dark object rose just above the sullen water, touched here and there into blood by the light they bore, and here the boat paused, and there was a few moments’ silent work, then three of the figures straight ened up iu the vessel and took the clars, but an instant later there rang out a succession of rapid shots, and two of the rowers pitched for ward out of the boat, and striking the water sunk out Ot sight 1 The third gave a shrill shriek and flung its arms about tho tall man wrapped in the cloak, crying: "Don't shoot again, Murrel. Spare me, and you shall have all the treas ure for yourself. Only lot mo live.” ' ’But as he prayed a shot went plowing its way through his brain, and Murrel, seizing his oars, sent the boat toward the shore with long, skillful strokes. He stopped here to wash from the vessel tho stains of fresh blood, and taking advantage of the moment Mary Shannon fled back to the bouse, and slipping past the colonel, whom she recognized by his long, white beard, seeking the shelter of the huge pillars of the porch, she regained her room and bed. But as she slipped off her woolen cloak she heard from the Window: v "Yes, it is in a safe place.” , “And Harper and Freer and Ur .win?” *■' • • “They have crossed the river and /SM flying, toward the border. 1 ’ '‘My horse ready? Goodby. You shall hear from me."- When the Shannons descended in the morning, it was to find the place deserted. Every man. woman and child had flitted during tho night. Of the hundred slaves not one was left. All had been transferred across the river and were far on their way with their master in his flight from justice. They had gone so silently that the Shannons’ servants had not even been arousvd. After an hour or so the officers from Jackson arrived. They had lost their way durin r the gloom of the night and enine .o v to find their birds flown, and ; .i.!i Fredericks led' tho way : ■ r ■ . i VJjere ths trjivAi.-.- h-d ut-.. ua* too, was gone, and none migm say where it now was. Years passed away, tho'war was over, the south lay prostrate, suffer ing for her sublime folly, and Mary Shannon was a widow, with poverty staring her in the face. Too delicate ly nurtured to understand how to work profitably, she bad won a barb livelihood with her needle, when, one day, mut-ing over her past life and the memory of that awful night ir that robber's don, came to Lev like an inspiration -tbo treasure! None could claim it,- or if she should find an owner for the stolen articles sho had heard mentioned she would c f course restore them, but the great mass would bo ini’iossiblo of identi fication. . With her last coin she bought a ticket back to the old Kenneth plan tation. to find it lying ruined, the fields overrun with blackberry vines, weeds and rank vegetation, in which the “bob whites” maub merry and the nimble hares slapped fearlessly. Recalling _ every incident of that nighl, the stole once more across tho open yard and soon found the tree under which sho waited to see the fearful tragedy on the water. She knew it by the great gnarled branch that reached out over her head like a menacing arm, and on tho line of her vision as sho looked toward tho river sho beheld a small islet and knew that there bidden lay the treasure purchased by crime end dyed with blood and sealed by treachery. Murrel had boeu taken that very night and brought to prison, where he never told his secret, but suffered it.to die with him. The rest of the gang had scattered to the four cor nel's of tho globe, or venturing back had looked iu vain for tho hiding place, the story of which had never been told them. Hiring a small boat and accom panied by four negroes from tho near est village to whom sho told of the family plate” concealed there during the war, Mary Shannon had the islet thoroughly searched, but nothing was found of tho box, and she was about to conclude that the Whole scene had been but a phantom seen in a dream, when she remembered to have seen tho boat bend nearly to the water's edge by the weight of tho four men on that eventful night as if they lowered something into the river to give it to tho keeping of tho river god himself. She noted a stump that leaned far out over tho water, and though the men warned her that her hand might come into contact with a water moc casin sho passed it over the wood, following its end under the murky tide, aud thrilled os she felt a chain tightly bound about it. Sho tried then to pull tho chain up, but it was weighted heavily at the other cud, and it took tho united strength of all four of her crew to raise it. Tho “it" was a stout chest of cedar bound about with iron aud clasped with a large padlock. Once in her room in the htitel of the little town which she made her headquarters, sho opened this box to gaze down with amazement at the handfuls of golden coins, gleaming jewels aud massive plate, iu value amounting to nearly $1,000,000. For much of tho last she found claimants, ns it was marked with names illustrious in. the state and ad joining ones, but with the money and jewels she restored her family home, so that at last hi aven's bless ing rested on the robber Murrel's ill gotten gains.—Philadelphia Times.
