‘JOSEPHA.
[Lulu IV- Mitchell in Chicago Tribune]
”We were at Chum when our delayed mail
was received. There was a month-old letter
from my young nephew, Reginald Trayers,
containing sad news. My dear old friend
Oswald Hamilton was dead; his affairs left
in a bad way. The arrangement of his pa.-
pers, straightening accounts, and settling
up of the estate were left in my hands. A sec:
ond was to the effect that J osepha (the only
and motherless daughter of my old friend,
now about 24 years of age) had finally 1's-
fused him. That he had secured a change
into the Tenth, which was soon to be ordered
away to fight Zulus, and closed by saying
that the best thing I could wish him was a'
bullet through the head in the first engage-
ment.
My poor Reg! It was his first taste of
life’s bitter, and it was going down hard. _ I
longed to grasp his hand 'in sympathy. I
cursed the stupidity of mail-carriers and
stormed and swore at the hundred and one
annoying delays that kept me so long on my
homeward way. However, in two days I
was well on my journey.
Soldiers are rough of speech. I began to
fashion some soft phrases of sympathy for
my old friend’s daughter, but gave up in
despair, trusting that, as in battle, when the
opportunity comes, I should beready to equal
it. And, after all, to such self-reliant natures
as J osepha’s sympathy held a tone of pity
_ which gave it a. distasteful flavor.
A word of myself here. An old soldier
nearing 50, but halo and hearty, I inherited
at my brother’s death the pile of stone he
called home, and his large business interests.
A misanthrope, he had shown little taste for
the society of his kind. My visits ‘to him
were few and brief. 1 had taken little notice
of Josepha until I came to Deerwood as its
master. Her name describes her. Divinely
tall, she had none of the awkwardness po
culiar in women of her stature, but her mo-
tion was at all times free, suggesting the
flight of a sea bird. Better than beauty, her
face expressed dignity and character. Her
mouth was shapely and ‘red, although a
square jaw and long chin proved somewhat
detractivc to it.
But her eyes—glorious? Clearest gray with
pupils of velvet, set under a man’s forehead.
She had a frank, bon camarade way which
played sad havoc with men’s hearts, what-
ever their armor. Many of the wisest and
wariest knelt at her shrine, but each and all
vainly. Between her and my dear lad there
had been an understanding, based on a. child-
ish attachment. ,Merely a silken link. I
cared little for Sociejv (though, thank God!
never ufim‘éndly‘or‘cola‘tom) mourners my ~
brother). The surrounding country families
who would have lionized me on account of a
few scars and decorations met with small en-
couragement, and but for the flying visits of
my young lieutenant and an evening cigar
on one of the wide verandas of Hamilton
Place, my time was primed inriding and walks
ing and shooting. '
Now I will let you into the secret. I was
surprised when I found it out myself. I had
fallen in love with Josepha. Preposterous!
So I said. At any rate, give me some credit.
I never dreamed of telling her, and I went
away immediately—traveling with a party of
friends. -
My old friend Imourned sincerely. Though
ten years my senior, we had been friends
years and years. He knew I stood ready to
lend a. helping hand whenever it was needed;
but he was proud to a fault, and though I had
begged him to allow my assistance (for I
knew he was in sad straits) he would never
take a. penny. ;
His reverses were quick and sudden. His
indomitable will upheld him in his struggle
for a time. When that broke beneath the
burden of troubles, which grow heavier day
by day, he died.
Dear old friend! “Here lies a man whom
pride brought low,” I murmured as I stood
over his grave.
I had arrived at Deerwood late in the after—
noon, and had stopped in the churchyard on
my way to Josepha.
The grass waved to and fro. I fancied the
one be10w stirred uneasily. ‘
“Peace,” I whispered. “Your name shall
be cleared; your daughter guarded well.”
Josepha let me in. She staid to fasten the
door, and as she came up with me in the cor-
ridor she slipped her warm hand into mine,
-lIld I held it strongly. My eyes fell on
Oswald’s picture as we entered the drawing-
room. Together we stood looking at it. Then
I looked at Josepha, in her long, black gown,
her neck rising like a lily stem from its som-
breness, as she stood by my side. Bereave-
ment and harassing cares had set their mark
on brow and lips, though she held her head
still proudly, and her eyes looked into mine
unmisted.
If I had loved her in the midst of her hap-
piness and light-heartedness, how much more
I loved her now, penniless, with a faint
shadow of dishonor on her name, forsaken by
the crowds of summer-day friends!
She looked into my face. for my tongue
was tied, and then bent her head and kissed
my hand.
“My dear,” I ‘said, “my door.”
The only safe thing for me to do was to go
to the window,yand I went. Presently she
followed , me, and, having myself as thor-
oughly in hand as an old fighter should by
this time, I sat down beside her and we had a
long, serious talk.
The long rays of sunlight poled from orange
to amber and gradually faded into the gray
of dusk, and as yet we had not spoken of the
future. Josepha had her father’s own pride
and strength of will, and my heart failed me
as I mentally marshaled my forces and pre-
pared to advance. I-‘irst, I meant that she
should come home with me.
“J oscpha,” I began, “this is no place for
you,” and then I called myself an old blun-
derer who deserved to be well kicked for his
unutterable stupidity.
“No, it is my home, my dear old home, no
longer. I have looked over the papers which
are in this box enough to see plainly that the
place will not be sufficient to satisfy the de-
mands of the creditors. Let me know as
soon as you can the full amount of the deficit;
I have thought it all out. No, dear major, I
cannot be contented to remain idly at Deer-
wood, kindly as you mean the offer, while
my father's debts remu'ui unpaid. Ah! I am
afraid you are angry; but, indeed, I can-
not.”
She was rock to arguments and persuasions.
She was her father’s own daughter. After
all, her spirit and determination demanded
admiration. I gave it grudgingly enough,
feeling as if I should enjoy scolding her
soundly and then kissing her!
I took the box, and chose to leave her with
the impression that I disapproved'totally of
herself and her determinations.
I sat down to hard work over the papers,
and when morning dawned I could talk defi-
nitely about the state of affairs.
lVell, they wore in a very bad way, indeed.
I made no efforts to mince things to Josepha,
who had made me an early call. She gave a.
little gasp, turned herback on me, and walked
straight to the window.
It was a. beastly morning; couldn’thave been
nastier. The rain fell—drizzle, drizzle, drizzle.
She could see the gray shaft which marked
her father’s grave. It was dreadful! The
clock ticked on and on.
“Josepha l" (Anythingto break this stormy
silence.)
No reply. ‘
“You are not legally bound to pay these
debts. All the law can do is to claim the es-
tote.”
Perhaps she heard.
a trifle.
“I do wish you would be more like pcOpio.
Here I am with more money than I can use.
Borrow of me. Your false notions will benc-
h‘t nobody, and as for your pride I call it
foolishness. At any rate, stay here at Deer-
wood. I will go away willingly if it will be
pleasanter in any way for you. Let me, as
math-1’s 0111 find. advise you."
She turned her head
rem rate your friendship (33le it is very,
very dear to me) above the duty I owe to the
(lead my conscience should prove un-
worthy of it. Risking the loss of your re-
gard, major, I must still adhere to my
course.”
She scratched oif two advertisements,
handing them to me as she rose. “Wanted—-
Position as governess,” out) “For sale—Ham-
ilton Place,” were the headings. I did my
best to obtain her consent to tearing up the
first, but all she would say was: “Do not urge
me.’
How like she was to Oswald, with that
square jaw, that firm, clear tone, and imperi-
ous pose. , .
And so (perhaps because of the reminder) 1
gainsaid her no longer. Governess she should
be if she wished, and Josepha went home
pleased as any headstrong girl who has her
way. I '
In pursuance of a. plantohead her off I sent
a telegram to Reg. The idea of her not lov—
ing such a. fine, manly, true—hearted follow,
the best man ‘ ever inside a. lionteuunt’s uni-
form. Hp had only to ask to wed anywhere.
He came as soon as he could get leave. They
were off in a. fortnight. .
I told him of J osepha’s resolves.
“There is one power that will stop her.”
“And that, uncle?”
“Love.” Profound sigh from Rog, but no
disposition to open his mouth.
“Do you try your luck again? Remember
the old rule about two negatives. I have
observed the young woman pretty closely,
and I think you will succeed. Tell her that
in case she consents to make us the happiest
of men you are to give up your commission
and come into my firm at once. Pshaw, boy!
Don’t look so dazed. I have intended it all
along; only taking time by the forelock, you
know. There, you young bear! Would you
hug me to death! G-o along with you! Tell
Josepha when you find her that an eccentric
old duller who has taken a fancy to the place
offered £25,000 to-day for it, and that being
by long odds more than she can expect to
have offered again, I took him up.”
“All right, uncle; anything more?”
He was already half out the library.
“Tell her—no, never mind.”
Reg was by this timo beyond hearing.
For an hour I walked up and down my
lonely, luxurious drawing-room. Free from
the restraint of Reginald’s company, the
fever rose again in my blood, my pulse beat
fast, my step quickeued. Then I formed a
hundred plans which would aid in crushing
down my heart. I would travel; I would
trust to time; with seas and years between I
would grow calmer in my feelings. I would
come back and find my happiness in Regi-
nald’s and hers. I would give them Hamil-
ton place for their wedding-gift, and I im—
agined myself in after years frolicking on
those green terraces with Reggie’s oldest or
youngest, as the case might be. But the
fever rose again, the longing was as strong
asit was vain. I was not in the frame of
mind to meet my nephew, and as soon as my
roan was saddled I sprang to her back and
was odi—away—I cared not where so I could
ride this madness down. ‘
I came home late. The hardest battle I
had ever fought I had won. I had such a
gripon myself that, after seeing Bess com~
fortably stabled and rubbed down, I went to
Reggie’s room without the least fear of self-
betrayal. ‘ '
But the lad was not there. Anote sticking
in the mirror-frame attracted my attention.
It was addressed to me. It ran, with many a
blot and erasure:
DEAF. OLD UNCLE: It was all a mistake.
Josepha never really cared two pins for me,
That boy and girl affair wasn’t love at all.
She told me so before, and I ought to have
known better than to go to her twice, but
you—there, I don’t blame you, uncle. How
should you know? She was very kind—if
you can call that sort of thing kind, and I
daresay I shall get over it. But I’m awfully
cut up, and I don’t feel as if I could face even
you just yet; so I’m off, without waiting
for you.”
A line or two more so badly blurred as to be
illegible, and a. great scrawl which bore but
a faint resemblance to “Reg.”
Poor lad! Poor lad! He tried hard to be
cheery in the farewell letter he sent before he
left thquhores of old England, but I saw the
heartache betWeeu the-lines.
In a few days I was called suddenly to Lon-
don on business, being detailed there some
little time,_,When I returnedto Deerwood it
wus't‘o’find my erratic young Fueig'libb‘r'flown.
Mrs. Hal-wood, my estimable housekeeper,
had a message for me from Miss Hamilton—
“she would write regularly, but I was not to
seek her out.”
Having delivered the message with a digni—
lied air slightly damaged by the curiOus, spec-
ulative glance with which she regarded me
the while. Mrs. Harwood rustled majestically
away, giving a vicious little jerk to the door-
knob, as much as to say, ”\Vell, there! He
might ’a said more than ‘0 indeed.’ Just as
if I didn't know she’d gone off a-governessin’!
But men is so ems-mouthed.”
As I went into the garden for a. quiet smoke
I heard the housekeeper addressing the house-
maid. — “Mary, do you run with all your
might now and tell cook the major-’5 back
again. Yes, I gave him the message. Sur-
prised? Well, you never know whether ’e is
or ’0 isn't. But, lawk, Mary! think 0’ tellin"
‘im, the major, not to seek out ’er, which ’as
gone to be a governess!”
“An’ after ’er packin’ off Mr. Reginald, the
stuck up piece,” said Mary, who had 'a.
sweetheart of her own she thought the world
of.
The weeks slipped into months, and the
months numbered eighteen before I saw J o-
sepha again.
She was ill, and w‘te for me to come to
her. No. 6 Beverly square was the address,
and the neighborhood was most aristocratic.
No. 6 was an imposing stone house of the
mausoleum type. In answer to my ring
there appeared on undersized footman whose
gravity of demeanor carried out the funeral
idea suggested by the house itself. Untold
millions could not have tempted him to
smile.
He went off with my card, and by and by
J osepha—or her ghost—trailed down the
stairs. To give you an idea of how weak
she was, let me tell you that there were two
tears in her eyes when I took her hands.
Josepha, and Josepha. reduced to womanly
tears. It was difficult to reconcile the two.
I saw my chance and took advantage of it.
Now, while she was .unfit for work, home-
sick, and needing a change she must make
Durand a visit. Mrs. Harwood knew how
to make my guests comfortable, and nothing
would suit me better.
I listened to no remonstrances, and when
she had consented I put an end to the last
“but” with a. sly hint that she had better
improve the present opportunity to visit her
old home, for the old gentleman who had
bought it intended to dispose of it soon.
I bore Josepha. away on the 5 o’clock train,
much to the disgust of my lady, who was
losing a governess such as Beverly square
should not soon again see.
The quiet and the change did work a. won-
derful change. Josepha in a fortnight was alv
most herself again, and queened it over me
in her own delightful way.
She began to talk of going Luci-t *o London
again, and one afternoon asked for the keys
to the Place.
I had made my plans to head her off, but
this time I sent no telegrams. I simply
Waited until the afternoon sun was low, and
then I followed her.
I found her, as I knew I should, before her
father’s portrait. Her head was thrown
back, her face uplifted, her hands thrownbe-
hind her.
“Josepha,” I said, spealn'ng as naturally as
I could—I had a moat exasperating lump in
my throat—“tho wedding for which this
"house was designed a. gift never came OR.
The old fellow doesn’t know what to do with
it, and, in fine, says if you will take it back—
and—himself into the bargain, he’ll be no end
obliged.
Her'eyes lit up, the loveliest color came to
her check. I kissed her, for I saw I might.
And when the first “stars came out we walked
together through the fields and our troth was
plighted. .

build is not in accordance with modern
models. The day has been very pleasant
for this trip, but the black clouds to the
north and west, with the rolling thunder
and chain lightning, show that We are
running directly into a storm. Soon it
comes down upon us, and fear is cuter
that the Royal gorge will not be seen to
advantage. But some twenty minutes
elapse, and just as the train reaches Canon

the rain ceases and the black clouds are
sailing off to the east. Canon City, 161

How Watch Cases are Made.
The many great improvements intro~
duced in the manufacture of the J as. Boss’
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar im-
provements in the making of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of a
silver case was made of several pieces of
metal soldered together, requiring a great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
softened the metal and gave it the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent, for every one knows that hammering
burdens the metal while soldering softens it.
To test. the superiority of the Keystone
Silver “'atcli Case, take one of 3 oz. weight,
press it squarely in the center when closed, \
and it will not give, while a. case of same
weight of any other make will give enough
to break the crystal, The Keystone Silver
“'utch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints. .

OUTWITTING or! GOULD. , .
The Chicago News is authority for the
statement. that but one reporter ever out-
wrtted Jay Gould. The occasion was
during Mr. Gould’s visit to Denver, anr’
papers for and wide were telegraphing
information about his movements. Fred
Skill? was. city editor of tho Denver
Tribune, and sent three of his beat.rc-
porters to get at Gould and interview him
by book or by crook. About 9 o’clock at
night these reporters showed up with the
information that Gould could not be seen -
that his soutiuele were posted all along,
the ball leading to his rooms in the Grand
Central 1:0 el, and t was impassible to-
run the gauntlet of those wary creatures
The News thus recounts the sequel : I
Perhaps with a view to showing his
subordinates what. genuine en er it
could accomplish, Skill announced pill:
he would secure access to Gould's apart-
ment, and would literally beard the lion
in his den. Accordingly he hustled
around, borrowed a. Pullman cor conduc-
tor’e coat and cap, and stalked bold! into
the Grand Central. “Look here ” aiidh
to the first sentinel he met. “dim doe:
