A TMiH OP A CARAVAfL
BT BOBEBT BCCHA5A*
At this moment Matt, looking- bright
as sunshIne, leaped out of the caravan.
"There's my proof," said Marshall.
"Mis* Monk, this amiable bridegroom
of yours denies being concerned in
harming Mr. Charles Brinkley. Is he
telling the truth?"'
Matt's face darkened, and she looked
at Monk with eyes of cordial detesta-tion.
"No,*' she said; "he's lying."
"Matt," cried Monk, fiercely, "take
care!"
"He's lying." she repeated, not heed-ing
him. "I see him do it with my
own two eyes, and I sec William
Jones helping him and looking on;
they thought that no one was nigh,
but I was. I was hiding behind them
sacks and barrels in the cave-"
Monk now felt that the game was
almost up, for he was beset on every
side, and the very ground seemed
opening under his feet. The wretched
Jones, in a state bordering on .frenzy.
remained on his knees, walling over
his ruin. The two strangers. Light-wood
and Marshall, looked on as calm
but Interested spectators. Matt, hav-ing
delivered her home-thrust of ac-cusation,
stood and gazed into Monk's
face with cool defiance.
"It is a plot!" Monk cried, presently,
"an Infamous plot to ruin me! You
have been tampering, I see, with this
wild girl, whom you foolishly suppose
kin to me by blood. Arrest me, if yon
please—I shall not take the trouble to
resist, for I am perfectly innocent in
this matter."
lie added, while they looked at one
another as if somewhat puzzled:
"As to the girl's relationship with
my dead cousin, the very idea is ab-surd.
Where are the proofs of her
birthright?"
"Here," said a quiet voice.
Monk turned his ryes and started
back in wonder, while William Jones
shrieked and fell forward on his face.
Standing before them In the sunshine

the murdered young man of the cara-van!

Yes, it wu the artist himself, look-ing
a little pale and carrying one arm
In a sling, but otherwise, to all appear-ance,
in good health.
Monk had strong nerves, but he
could not prevent himself from utter-ing
a wild cry of horror and wonder.
At the same moment Matt went to the
young man's side, and, with an air of
indescribable trust and sweetness, took
his hand—the hand which was free—
and put it to her lips.
"The proof is here," he said, calmly;
"here upon my person. I am not quite
dead, you see, Mr. Monk, of Monks-hurst,
and I thought I should like to
bring It to you myself. It consists, as
you are aware, of Col. Monk's dying
message, written on the fly-leaf of his
prayerbook, and of the marriage cer-tificate
of his wife, both these having
been placed upon his child's person,
concealed by the unsuspecting and il-literate
Jones, and found byme after a
lapse of many years."
Monk did not speak; his tongue was
frozen. He stood aghast, opening and
shutting his clinched hands spasmodi-cally
and shaking like a leaf. Reas-sured
to some extent by the sound of
the voice, unmistakably appertaining
to a person of flesh and blood, William
Jones gradually uplifted his face and
lookt-ft. In ghastly wonder at the
speaker.
"You will be anxious to ascertain,"
proceeded Itrinkley. with his old air of
lightness, "by what accident, or spe-cial
l*rovidencc, I arose from the grave
in which you politely entombed me?
The explanation is very simple. My
young friend here. Matt, tho found-ling,
or, as I should rather call her.
Miss Monk, of Monkshurst, came to
my assistance, attended to my injuries,
which were not so serious as you

"I hate him!" cried Matt; "I should
like to drown him In the sea."
Brlnkley laughed.
"Your sentiments are natural, but
un-Christian. And the gentle Jones,
now, who is looking at you so affec-tionately,
whatwould you do with him?
Drown him in the sea too?**
"No, no. Matt," interposed William
Jones, abjectly; "speak up for me.
Matt. I ha' been father to you all these
years.'*
Matt seemed perplexed what to say. |
So Brlnkley again took up the conver-!
sation.
"On reflection we will refer William j
Jones to his friends, the 'coast-guard .
chaps.* I think he will be punished
enough by the distribution of his little
property in tho cave. Eh, Mr. Jones?" I
Jones only wrung his hands and ;
wailed, thinking of his precious treas-ure.
"And so, Matt," continued Brlnkley, ;
"there will be no wedding after all. I'm!
afraid you're awfully disappointed!'*
Matt replied by taking his hand
again, raising it to her lips, and kiss-ing
it fondly. The young man turned
his head away, for his eyes had sud-denly
grown full of grateful tears.

you persistently refused to do justice)
to this young lady."
As he spoke. Monk uttered a savage
oath and rushed towards the road; bat
Marshall was after him in a moment
and sprang upon him. There waa a
quick struggle. Suddenly Monk drew
a knife, opened it and brandished It in
the air; so that it would have gone ill
with his assailant if tho herculean
Tim, coming to the rescue, had not
pinioned him from behind. In another
moment the knife was lying on the
grass and Monk was neatly handcuffed
by the detective,
"Now, governor, you'd better take it
quietly!" said Marshall, while Monk,
struggled and gnashed his teeth in im-potent
rage. "You're a smart one, you.,
are, but the game's up at last."
Monk recovered himself and laughed
fiercely.
"Let me go! Of what do you accuse
me? It was murder just now, but since
the murdered person Is alive (d—n
him!) I should like to know on what
charge you arrest me."
"Oh, there's nodlfficultyaboutthat!"
said Brinkley, looking at him super-ciliously.
"In the first place you have
by fraud and perjury possessed your-self
of what never legally belonged to
you. In tho second place, you at-tempted
murder, at any rate. But upon,
my life, I don't think you are worth,

"Its letting a mad dog loose, air," re-plied
Marshall. "He'll hurt some-body."

proved he left England never to return.
Whether he is alive or dead I cannot
telL
William Jones, too, escaped legal
punishment. A severer retribution
came upon him in the seizure and dis-posal
of the hoards in the great cave.
So sorely did he take his loss to heart
that he crept to his bed and had an at-tack
of brain fever. When he reap-peared
on the scene of his old plunder-ings
his intellect was weakened, and
he showed curious evidences of im-becility.
But tho ruling passion re-mained
strong within him. I saw him
only last summer, rambling on the sea-shore,
talking incoherently to himself
and watching the sea in search of
wreckage as of old.
And Matt *
Well, her title to Monkshurst and
the property was fully proved. For a
long time she did not realize her good
fortune, but gradually the pleasant
truth dawned upon her in a sunrise of
nice dresses, jewelry and plenty of
money. Chancery stepped in like a
severe foster parent and sent her to
school. There she remained for several
years; but Charles Brinkley, who had
first taken in hand the vindication of
her claims, and who never ceased to
be interests! in her, saw her from
time to time and took particular note
of her improvement in her grammar
and in the gentle art of speech.
••Matt," he said, when they met last
Christmas in London, and when he
saw before him, Insteady of a towsy
girl, as bright and buxom a young lady
as ever wore purple raiment and fine
linen, "Matt, you are 'growed-up' at
last!"
Matt blushed and hung her head,
with a touch of the old manner.
"Yes, I am grown, as you say. I
wonder what William Jones would
think if he saw me now."
"And if he noticed these pretty boots.
Matt, and heard you play the piano
and prattle a little in French. Upon
my word, it's a transformation! You
always were a nice girl, though."
"Do you really think so?" asked
Matt, shyly. "Did you always think
so?"
"Certainly."
"Even when I told you I liked you
ao much, and you told me 'it wouldn't
do?*"
It was Brinkley's turn to blush now.
It was clear that Matt, despite other
changes, still retained her indomit-able
frankness.
"Even then," ho replied, laughing.
••But I say you were a precocious
youngster. You proposed to me, you
know!'*
"I know I did," said Matt, "and it
wasn't leap year then."
She added still more shyly:
"But it's leap year now!"
Their eyes met. Both blushed more
and more.
"Matt, don't! It won't do, you know!
Yes, I say so still. You're a rich woman
and I'm only a poor devil of a painter.
You must marry some great swell."
But Matt replied:
"I shall never marry anyone but
you!"
"You won't? Do you mean It?"
"Of course I do."
lie caught Rer in his arms.
"My darling Matt—yes, I shall call
you by that dear name to the end of
the chapter. You love me, then? I
can't believe it!"
"I have loved you," she answered,
laughing, "ever since I first came—'to
be took!'"
And she rested her head on his shoul-der
just as she had done in the old
days when she was an unsophisticated
child of nature.
"So there's to be a wedding after

in motion, he lovt much < f that
fervor which hud previously pos-sessed
him for official exile. It
leaked out that he was devoting his
large and vureatile attainments to
the acquirement of a gaudy ward-robe
at the expense of an optimis
tio Washington tailor. There was
also a wild rumor to the effect that,
acting in the interest of prohibi-tion,
the colonel bad undertaken to
consume all the rum in the United
States before he left it to its fate.
And finally, about the time that
Colonel Hoge reached San Francis-co
with a trousseau in which he
felt able to meet the gaudiest dude
in all Mongola land and with a
conviction that so far he had let
no guilty drink escape, it became
known that he had been recalled to
Washington. Some said that there
was trouble about a certain chec-que
subscribed by the colonel but
returned with an unfeeling indorse-ment
of "no funds." Others de-clared
that Mr. Cleveland's heart
had failed bim at the last moment
and that he had called tho colonel
back for one more kiss before he
sailed entirely. The order, how-ever,
was issued, and the colonel,
caught on the fly, as it were, re-bounded
in an easterly direction.
He is coming—coming slowly, la-boriously
and painfully, but com-ing-
We shall eventually have him
once more "in our midst," and some
day- we shall know why Mr. Cleve-land
stopped him on the threshold
of the i-.-a and jerked him fondly
hitherward.
As we have said, the colonel is
advancing with difficulty. At last
accounts he had reached El Paso
in distress. Like another famous
Southern statesman already shrin-ed
in history, he didn't know where
he was at, and he has since been
sleeping on the situation. We are
told that tho thoughtful people
there would like to expedite him.
There seems to be in that far-off
Texas town a loving wish to push
the colonel ferther on and join him
with hia idol. His truly feal en-deavor
in the cause of prohibition
..as fatigued him, and like a proph
et resting from his toil he slumbers.
People of inquiring mind are anx-iously
awaiting news from Hoge.
He ie, perhaps, the sweetest and
juiciest fruit of the political mill-ennium,
and there is a general and
deep anxiety to sample him.
May angry winds subside! May
fogs and all untoward things dis-perse!
And, then, may gentle
zephyrs waft him over tranquil seas
to happy riding at safe anchorage !
Everybody longi for Hoge. Every-body
wants to see the fair, clean
lines and raking shrouds of the
prettiest craft that ever bent a sail
or shipped a jag.

made to the State Treasurer. They
rromptly gave bond in the sum of
12,000, each with sureties whose

A Philosopher's Opinion.
Voltaire said to a beautiful
young lady with whom be waa din-ing,
"Your rivala are the perfection
of art; you are the perfection of
nature." Thie could not have been
•aid if the young lady waa euffei*
ing from disease, and pain had left
ita signs on the features. Women
wbo want to keep beautiful and be
the "perfection of nature,'' should
uso "Favorite Prescription" to as-sist
Nature when needed, to correct
irregularities, aid circulation and
digestion, and thereby clear up tbe
skin, rendering it soft and beauti-ful.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-tion
is the only medicine for wo-man's
peculiar ille, sold through
druggists, and guaranteed to give
satisfaction in every case, or mon-ey

Can't Miss a Rattlesnake.
The writer saw an Indian kill a
rattlesnake in a very peculiar man-ner
recently. Tbe rattlesnake was
about 10 feet from the Indian, rim
was resting the rifle on his knee,
apparently taking aim.
Whenever he moved the weapon
a few inches tne snake would move
around and get exactly in line with
it. Then tu show how the thing
was done the Indian moved as if
his tail was a vivut, always keeping
his head and body in line with the
gun. The Indian then agreed to
bandage his eyes and shoot the
snake in the mouth.
The writer bandaged the Indian'i-eyes,
and holding the gun by hie
side at arm's length, tbe latter
pulled the trigger and the ball en
te cd the snake's mouth and passed
the whole le.ig.h of his body.
-'How did you taae aim?" was
tae query.
" The snake he takes aim," was
tbe reply.
We have talked with an old hun-ter
on this propoaition, and ht
claima that a rattlesnake will al-ways
range directly in line with a
gun or stick pointed at it.—Carson

TnE BXST PLASTER.—Dampen a
piece of flannel with Chamberlain's
Pain Balm and bind it on over the
seat of pain. It ia better than any
plaster. When the lunga are sore
auch an application on the chea
and another on the back, between
tbe ahoulder blades, will often pre
vent pneumonia. There is nothing
so good for a lame back or u pair
in the aide. A sore throat can
nearly always be cured in oiienigb
by applying a flannel bandage dam
pened with Pate Balm, :>u cen
