iBY HERBERT D.

(Continued.)

And now the fourfli night was at hand, and the man so used to violent exercise, to the open air, to regular and unrestrained habits and a free life, found himself wondering, as in a dream, how much longer he could pos- sibly endure. The evening seemed as if it would never darken into night. The moon was full, and revived the twi-

light, bringing out new shadows into a |

not less luminous tone. It was the kind of night when people sleep uneasily and look out of their windows often and marvel at the white brilliancy that al- Ways seems strange and fairylike, even to common minds,

Suddenly the room began to dance up and down, then sideways, then to re-

volve in an ever widening circle. This time surely it really happened. The

blacksmith stared at With surprised eyes.

the phenomenon Then the distant

“Come on!” he yelled. “You can’t mur der me.”

whistle of «a locomotive impinged upon his brain. It re-echoed and re- verberated until the hammering on

@ thousand anvils could not have drowned the noise. The blacksmith looked around to see how the rest of the jury were affected by the din, and:as he looked he saw the foreman taking a knife out of his pocket and whispering to two or three others. Thereupon Wor- thely feigned sleep, but he saw them through closed lids as distinctly as ‘be- fore. On tiptoe they advanced —did they? Did they not? Why, he could not be mistaken. They advanced upon him. The moon, which unaccountably had returned to its place, shove full upon their murderous faces.

When they had tiptoed within:a.con- ple of yards of him, Worthely jumped to his feet, grasping the chair nearest to him, and stood at bay.

*“‘Come on!'’ he yelled. ““You can’t giurder me. I am too strong for ‘that.”’

Snarling, and showing his teeth in his nightmare, he brandished his weap- ga at imaginary foes, at the ha!lucina- tion of murder. The sleeping jurymen eprang to their feet. It was a murder that bad brought theindependent black- arith to this pitiable condition. He was pouring out bis life that amother mur- der might not be committed, this time under the cloak of the law. Somebod) killed Burnse—not George—who then? Rotating on this awful problem, what wonder the stalwart mind became con- fused? And now the climax of atrocity bad come—so the blacksmith thought—

| that—what does his foot strike?

aiid they were trying to murdeg the man whom they could not tease into submission. This discovery, made in the delusion of sleeplessness, was 80 real to Worthely that the horror of it completed his aberration. Not a man of them had touched him, but the dullest of them perceived that the obstinate man had believed himself attacked by his mates.

‘Keep off!’? Worthely shouted again. ‘‘What did you say, you contemptibl

redheaded sneak, you?’’ shaking his fist |

at the foreman. ‘‘ You saw George Wil- |

liams do it? That’s a lie.

George Wil- |

liams? Puh! He hasn’t pluck enough to |

killacalf. He wan’t tall enough. I'll hold out till dcomsday. You shan’t hang an innocent man, and you can’t hang the man who did it, for I'll wager

peanuts against dollars he’ll never ceil.”” |

By this time William Worthely was frothing at the mouth. Entranced to 56

the spot, no one of the jury, as yet, had |

ventured to call assistance. Each feared

to miss what might follow, as much as

he feared to hound the riotous dreamer. They imperceptibly shouldered each other for protection, and cast quick glances of nameless apprehension.

Had

their curiosity conspired to send the |

blacksmith insane? They knew now that their 78 hours’ inquisition had gone too far and they began to dread the consequences.

And now William Worthely faced the 11 jurymen. He began to answer imaginary questions and argument with fierce sarcasm and unassailable logic. His eyes glared at them and through them. He was quieter now, but his body, trembling, gave evidence of an explosion that could not be suppressed much longer. The room was locked, and even if the frightened men had craved assistance they could not have had it, except by calling out of the window.

‘*You’re a nice lot of men, you are,”’ hegan the imsomniac_ scathinglr. ‘‘Where’s your imagination? Do you suppose George had the courage to hit anything with that hatchet but a tree? He might have sneaked up from behind. That’s the sort of man he is, and you know it. Burns was hit full from the front. It took a man who dared to face him and kill him. What? Of course he was there and went away. He probably came to get some back pay and dropped

his hatchet—pernaps he was scared. Perhaps he meant to threaten old man Burns, but he didn’t even have the gumption to do that.

‘‘Hadn't you ever thought of neigh- bers’ Look me in the face. D—n you all! Couldn’t you imaging a neighbor coming up about that time to settle a lit- tle business or an old bill with the old man? He never paid his debts till he had to. Look! I can see a neighbor go- ing in the barn just as George left. Ho presents his bill, and Burns refuses to pay. They have bot worda Don’t you hear them blackguard each other? ‘You won't pay,’ says the other, standing be- fore him. ‘Well, I'll make you.’ Then the old man sneered at him. And with It is the hatchet George Williams dropped. Burns, now, he never notices it, but jeers again. Don’t you see it all? I can.

‘* “You won't, eh?’ cries the neighbor, grasping his debtor by the throat. May- be he didn’t mean murder, but that don’t make any odds. It's all the same now. The two men close. ‘You won't

then?’ says the neighbor.

‘‘How do I know that George didn’t kill old man Burns? Because lI did it myself.’’

: * s s * .

In the sober silence that followed the jodge’s last words a shuffle was heard at the door, and a tall, lean man walk- ed in bearing an armful of logs. It was the old man familiarly known as Bill, the keeper of their host’s camp, a quiet, white haired, harmless fellow. Some thought him a little ‘‘touched,’’ but ev- ery one respected him. He was just a gentle, unassuming man with an air of latent strength and suffering about him that gave him a dignity of his own. Something in the significant way the judge looked at his servant attracted the attention of the rest.

“‘Godfrey! Uncle! So that’s the man that killed Burns.’’ The young collegian jumped up as the old man left the room. ‘‘T always thought there was something queer about him.’’ The hydranlic en- gineer shook his head sagely at this im- pulsive conclusion. But the captain said in an intense way:

““Go on, judge.”’

Judge Chambers could not help show- ing in his face the gratification that a ra- conteur feels when he has successfully evolved a climax.

He proceeded with no undue haste:

*‘Of course the new jury that was 1m- paneled acquitted the said George Williams without leaving their seats. It took six men to hold the blacksmith that night before he was put in a strait- jacket and lodged in a padded cell. His

contetsion Cleared’up the Luru* mystery and the grand jury brorghbt in a true bill against him, tao be served when he should recover his sanity, if ever.

‘“‘In six months William Worthelv Was a model patient, quiet and trurt- worthy, and his case was to be consid- ered in the next spring term. While he Was pronounced sane enough about mat- ters of the present moment he had for- gotten absolutely everything about his life preceding his confession. Even the very elements of his trade had been lost to his mind and hands. He could now no more shoe a horse than he could write a novel. He had even forgotten

his name, his neighbors and the village | he lived in. He was a new man, just as |

if he had been born again in that asylum

into a new world. You can’t let a mur- |

derer loose upon the community, and you can’t hang a man who doesn’t re-

member his crime, even if he has con- |

fessed. It is a question if any man ought to be punished on his own con- fession uncorroborated by evidence. But that is another matter for another time. The problem was what to do with Worthely.

‘*Matters drifted, just as the snow |

did that heavy winter. Some wanted him tried, cthers wanted him shut up in the asylum for life, and a few want- ed him out. At that time a railroad ac- cident occurred near Hartford. A bridge gave way and a freight train through. A tramp was brought to the hospital terribly hurt.

When he was ;

told that he could not possibly live |

more than a day or so, he sent fora Methodist minister and made a confes- sion. Among other things he said he

killed a man in a barn in Broadadtield on |

an evening of the preceding June. He had crept into a pile of hay to sleep for the night. The farmer came out and had a discussion in the barn with some- body who had come in with him. This man had a batchet in his band, which he had stuck into the head of a stall. Their conversation was entirely friend- ly, and they shook hands in parting, the man forgetting his hatchet. Some- how or other the farmer happened to stick a pitchfork into the heap by acci- dent and the tramp jumped from his concealment. out and threatened him. The tramp was a taller, larger man and langhed his host to scorn. Thereupon the farmer reached for the hatchet. snatched from his hand and buried in his brain. The tramp, who had entered the town at dusk unobserved, sneaked out and left the same way.’’

‘‘What on earth did Worthely con- fess, then, for?’’ interrupted the colle- gian eagerly.

‘It often happens thata man con- fewses a crime in delirinm. Bunt if he hadn’t confessed,’’ continued the judge slowly, ‘‘the wrong map would have been hung.”’

‘“‘And if the blacksmith hadn’t con- tinued insane he would have been bung,’’ said the hydraulic engineer.

‘*But what did Burns say ‘ Williams’ for?’’ insisted the student. “‘That was enough to condemn the Englishman.’’

‘‘He probably tried to say that Wil- liams was innocent and died in the at- tempt. Dying statements are very un- certain keys with which to lock a man up,’’ answered the justice gravely.

‘Say, uncle, is that William Worth- ely?’’

“Seles Chambers regarded his nephew quizzically and smiled at the boy's ca- riosity.

“] think it’s about time to turn in; don’t you?’’ he said. THE END.

The man with a weight on hie leg can’t hope to win in the rece. A man with # weight on his health can’t expect to com- pete in life and business with those who are not handicapped. If his brain is heavy and his blood sluggieh, because of constipation, he wij not succeed in doing anything very well. Constipation is the cause of nine-tentbe of all sickness. Symp- tome of it are sallowness, listleesne#s, poor appetite, bad taste inthe mouth, dizziness, billiousness and lassitude. Constipation can be cured easily and certainly by the uve of Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. They are not at all violent in their ection, and yetthey are more certain than many medicines which are so strong that they put the system all out of order. The great advantage of the “Plearant Pelle” is that they cure permanently.
