departure the picture is gone.
It had been raining all the afternoon,
but towards night the storm almost
ceased and a thick fog set in. The woods
were dark, cold and gloomy. The faces of
the {two men who were slowly making
their way under the trees were struck
every moment by a line mist.
Presently they stopped and sat down on
' a fallen log, regardless of the fact that it
was soaking wet. Since early morning
they had been hunting and new they had
completely lost their way. They looked
at one another helplessly.
“Got a match?” asked one.
“Yeth, two;” lisped the other.
“Well, we had better start a tire.
me get some wood.”
They stumbled about in the darkness for
a while and got together some doubtfully
dry wood.
The first match did not burn. The last
@110 flared up for a moment; the man
,s’sqcped quickly to touch it to the bit of
,papcp which had been placed under the
wood to kindle the lire—a gust of wind, a
.dash of rain, :1 face lighteil up a moment
,in the darkness and the match was out.
,3. "I don’t thee why you let them all go
but, Thili‘thton,” grumbled the other.
“You don’t?” exclaimed Thurston with a.
rising inflection. “You don’t? Listen to
that wind. Hear that rain-” He
paused a moment with bent head. “There
it is again. I thought I heard it——"
"Heard what?” «
“Listen l" exclaimed Thurston, sharply.
Help
Faintly they could hear the barking of a
dog. As the wind increased in volume it
was louder; t 0 wind. then almost died
away and the sound was scarcely audible.
“This way i" exclaimed Thurston, and.l
on they stumbled until they came to a.
wood road. They had not gone far on this
when they came toa small house anda.
number of ferocious dogs came bounding
toward them, growling and showing their
teeth. The two men were unable to keep
them off- only by the free use of their gun
stocks. Then a light was seen in the
house and the door was opened.
“Here Jilt, Tige, Mentor. Come here!
Lie down !” cried a hoarse voice impatient-
ly. "What do you want?” to the two
young men.
“Call these dogs off," said Thurston.
“We want shelter; we have lost our way.”
“Lost your way, eh? How’s that? What
are you doing way up- hore‘.” He held the
light up so he could scan their faces and
then he saw their guns. “Hunting, eh?
Got lost? Hard luck for you !" He was a
strange looking man and the light flared
and fell full on his unshavcu face with a.
strange effect. “Shelter ! You want shelter?
Well, you won’t find it here l"
“What?" exclaimed Thurston in sur-
prise. “You cannot mean you would leave
us out of doors such a night as this? We
will pay you well for accommodations.”
“Pay! What do you suppose Icare for
pay?” Then they heard the old man mut—
tcring to himself. He had changed his
mind, for with a wave of his hand, and in
a different Voice he said cordially:
“Allow me to invite you in. My accom-
modations are very poor, but you are quite
welcome to what I have."
In tl~at wet, dark night, Thurston could
not help noticing the very good language
the man made use of, and when they had
entered the house, he looked about him
curiously.
They were in a small room, with a low
smoke-blackened ceiling and dingy walls.
There Was no upper story to the house,
and no other room but this, excepting a.
small one in the rear, evidently used for
cooking purposes. On one side of the
room was a bed, and near the fire-place
was a large, old-fashioned arm-chair. A
fire of chips and a few small sticks of wood
was burning in the fire-place, and every
few moments a bright blaze would shoot
up, illumining the strange face of their
host. He had small, deep-set eyes—were
.they blue or were they gray?—Thurston
could not tell in the dim light. In fact, it
was not until he had divested himself of
his wet outer-garments, and seated him-
self in a small wooden chair, that he looked
at his host at all closely. The man was
not‘ tall, he did not look so very old,
although his hair was an iron gray, his
face deep lined and drawn,'and his fea-
tures were pale and wan. His eyes had an
odd look in them, and he glanced a little
suspiciously at the two young men who
had been forced on his hospitality. His
clothes were old and shabby, yet Thurston
saw that the cloth was of the finest qual-
ity, although the cut was of antiquated
style. It was with a singular ease and
grace that he invited the two to be seated,
at the same time apologizing for the poor-
ness of the place. Thurston did not know
what to think of thisstrange man; it was
' evident that he was not an ordinary
farmer.
“I am very sorry my friend Havemeyer
and myself were forced on you to-night,”
said Thurston, after he had warmed him-
self by the fire. "We were hunting and
lost our way. Is this the only house
about here?” ‘
“There is not ahouse within four miles
of here,” was the reply.
“Dear me,” put in Havemeyer.

The man was bustling about, getting
them something to eat, and he looked up
and toid them where the next town was.
They had wandered many miles from Mrs.
Ilnrnlyn’s country house. Thurston asked
their host if there was any place where
they might get a conveyance. He directed
it em to a place down the road—the house
of one Seth Dowc.‘
Thurston and Havemeyer were now
smiled at a small wooden table, where
their strange host had spread a hearty
nu-al ot‘ bread, cold meat and vegetables.
"Is it a lonely life?” the old man said, in
reply to a query from Thurston. “No, in-
deed, I don't look like it, but I was once a
man of the world. I ruined myself gamo
ling, drinking. I have been in South
Africa, South America, India, besides the
continent of Europe, and this is the only
place I can live in peace. I scarcely see a
human face from one year’s end to an-
other. It’s a quiet life, but I have many
things to forget—so many. Let me give
you young men a bit of advice: Shun
cards, drinking and the pursuit of pleas-
me. I was once wealthy, had many
friends, but something happened that
made me ashamed to look a fellowman in
the face again. You will pardon me, but
1 am not feeling well to-night. I have a
heart trouble."
Thurston and Havermcyer continued
their meal, and talked for a while with
their host. Then Havermeyer said some-
thing to his companion mentioning the
name of DavariS. As he did so the old
man looked at him keenly.
“Davaris?” he said, “who is that? I once
knew a man of that name in Greece.”
“I wath speaking of Philip Davarith, a.
fellow we met thith thummer. I believe
he ith a Greek. He ith ayoung man about
tWenty-four. It ith odd that you should
know him. Perhapth it ith not the thame
man, but Davarith ith an awfully odd
name. By Jove, Thurthton, fancy, thith
man ith an old friend of that odd Greek
we met at Mrs. Hamlynth.”
Thurston queried the old man and he
seemed strangely excited. He insisted on
learning all he could of Davaris, and for a.
while looked dreamily into the fire in deep
thought.
“I think I ought to do It. There can be
no mistake," they heard him mutter.
Then he got up and paced up and down
the room with hesitating steps.
“I really don’t exactly understand,” said
'Thurston. “You think you know this man
——this Philip Davaris?"
"I do, certainly, if what you young men
have told me is correct. I hope you will
not press me. This is an entirely per-
sonal matter. I think there can be no
mistake. I should very much like to see
him. I have a favor to ask you. Where
can I had him?"
Havermeycr told him.
"Are you quite sure you know him—are
you quite sure this is the man you are
looking for? Really, you know, we shall
be delighted to be of service to you,” said
Thurston.
“I cannot say, exactly. But tell me all
you know about him," asked the old man.
And Havermeyer told him.
Thurston watched him wonderingly.
How did it happen that this man knew
Davaris? What did he want of him?
“It must be he,” muttered the man.
“Now I want you young men to make me
apromise. It is a matter of great im-
portance both to me and to him—-I want
you to promise me to hurry back to Da-
varis and send him to In) at once. I
would go myself, but I am so weak now-—
I am almost helpless. I know it is a very
strange request to make; I see you are
wondering. But all I ask of you is to tell
Davaris that Cyrus Westerly wishes to
see him. Ask him if he remembers Cyrus
Westerly, and tell him to come to me as
fast as a horse can bring him."
"Bavaria?” he said, “who is that? I once
knew a 1mm of that name in Greece.”
The old man sat down in his chair,
breathing haul, his eyes shining unnatur-
ally. Thurston promised to do what he
asked, and then they made arrangements
for spending the night. Thurston and
Havermeyer were to occupy the bed in
the room; their fleet said he had a cot in
the other room.
On getting into bed Havermeyer imme-
diately went off to sleep, but for some
time Thurston tossed about thinking and
wondering what the old man wanted with
Davaris. When at last he did go to slee p,
the last thing he saw before he closed his
eyes was the Old man in his chair by the
fireside. * * "‘ f ' * "
The fire had gone out; nothing of it re-
mained but a heap of white ashes. The
storm had died away completely. No
longer did the wind hurl the rain savage-
ly against the windows of the little house;
no longer did the trees bend east. Not a
sound was to be heard, except the heavy
breathing of the two sleepers in that
room; even the dogs were quiet. The old
man sitting by the fire-side was motion-
less. Presently in the east a gray light
appeared, constantly growing brighter
every moment; the sky turned red as
blood; the white clouds far above were
tinged with a delicate carmine reaching
far into the north and south; and at last
the sun flashed up, glistened on the rain
drops on the trees and on the grass. As
the bright beams entered the one window
of that little room the old man moved un-
easily. The sun fell full upon his white
face; he attempted to lift up his head; he
opened his eyes for an instant; he placed
his hand over his heart and a spasm of
pain passed over his features; he moved
his lips; his hand fell to his side limply:
and then he was motionless.

Fire at Bell Island.
The hotel at Bell Island, conducted
by Edward Frye of Danbury, was
burned to the ground Saturday after-
noon. Smoke 'was discovered issuing
from the roof of the building betWeen
four and five o’clock, and an alarm was
sounded by the whistles of the tugs ly-
ing near by, and parties who were in
boats started for the island as quickly
as possible and succeeded in saving a
few articles of furniture.
The fire apparently started in the
basement of the building, and it is
thought a defective fine was the cause.
There are no conveniences on the
island for fighting fire, and the build-
ing slowly but surely was consumed to-
gether with nearly all of its contents.
The landlord, Mr. Frye, was absent at
the time with his w1fe at Rowayton,
sleigh-riding. He saw the flames from
that that place and located the fire at
\Vilson Point and telephoned for in-
formation and seemed almost thunder-
struck when told that it was his hotel,
and he was not long in driving to the
scene. Fortunately there was no
wind blowing at the time else
some of the other buildings would
no doubt have been destroyed. The
season at the island closed some weeks
since and Mr. and Mrs. Frye were the
only occupants of the island, with the
exception of a Mr. Crofut, who has
charge of the big light of the Terminal
Co. which is located on one of the fur-
thermost points of the island. The
loss, which will reach something over
$8,000, is covered by insurance. The
hotel was owned by Foster Brothers of
Danbury. ' ‘

Obituary.
MRS. FREDERICK ST. JOHN.
Ann Tyrell Isaacs, relict of the late
Frederick St. John, died Saturday
evening at her residence, No. 13 Mott
avenue, aged 80'years. Mrs. St. John
has been in failing health for several
weeks, but it was not thought that the
end was so near, and her death Satur-
day evening was a shock and surprise
to her relatives and many friends. She
was the daughter of Benjamin and
Frances leases“ and was born in the old
homestead, which stood for many years
where the Masonic Building is now lo-
cated. The funeral was held on Wed-
nesday afternoon at 2 o’clock, from
Grace Church. : The remains were
interred in the family vault at St. Paul’s
Cemetery.
MRS. N. A. MOSMAN.
Mary Elizabeth Hill, second daugh-
ter of Ebenezer and Hannah Hill, and
wife of Dr. N. A. Mosman of 350 Madi-
son avenue, N. Y., passed away quietly
and peacefully at her home on Sunday
at four o’clock. For many years she
has been a great sufferer, and death
came to her as a glad release. On
Christmas day she sent to all her rela-
tives and intimate friends. beautiful
tokens of her love and kindly remem-
brance. and gathering her family about
her, calmly and quietly awaited death
and when the day had passed and .she
still lived said that it was the happiest
Christmas that she had ever spent. She
lingered on till Sunday, the anniver-
sary day of her wedding. twenty-seven
years ago, and the birthday of her hus-
band, when God took her home.

Will They Resign ?
Tne rumor that Lieut.-Col. Crows, of
Norwalk, and Major Cornell of this
city, had handed in their resignations
Monday created a stir in military circles.
but was hardly as great a surprise, as
was the election of Captain Frost to the
colonelcy. It was argued by those in-
terested in military affairs that the re-
sult of the election would surely bring
about the resignations of these two of-
ficers, whose aspirations were so uncer-
emoniously checked. But others ar-
gued that all the Officers would stand
by the new colonel. Major Uornell‘
when seen Monday afternoon and asked
concerning the report, neither affirmed
nor denied it, but the trend of his re-
plies showed that hc had conSIdered
such action.
Major Cornell said : “The result of
the election shows that the line Officers
desire that young men be placed at the
head of the regiment. They themselves
are all young, and I don’t know as I
blame them for having that desire. Of
course I may be wrong, but my idea is
that this is their wish, and if it is. then
I believe they should be given a chance
to carry it out. I have not seen Col.
Crowe and of course cannot speak for
him, but that is the way I feel about
the matter. ”—Bridgeport Standard.

Chargeable to You. Mr. Bowe.
At their last meeting, held Mon-
day evening, Dcc. 2lst, the Court of
Burgesses of 1891, passed a resolution
directing the Chairman of the Highway
Committee to have at once re-set the
curbstoncs which had been taken up at
the corner of Wall and River street in
front of the Norwalk Hotel, and also to
repair the concrete broken in conse-
quence thereof. This vote. for some
reason best known to the Chairman of
the Committee, was never carried out. -
Sunday evening, while on her way to
attend services at Grace Church. Mrs.
Sarah A. Hall, a lady who resides on
Hoyt street, stumbled over the ragged
edge of the sidewalk and now lies at
her home with a broken leg, suffering
untold agony, a victim of the neglect
of the Chairman of the Highway Com-
mittee of the Court of Burgesses of
1891, who failed to do his duty.
As stated above,Mrs. Hall was on her
way to church about 7 o’clock when
she stumbled over the sidewalk. She
was picked up and a sleigh procured
from Dunn’s stable, in which she was
removed to her home. Dr. Hunting-
ton was called and setthe broken bones
and did everything in his power to re-
lieve her sufferings.

A Polar Bear Escapes.
A Polar bear escaped from his cage
at . the Barnum winter quarters in
Bridgeport Thursday evening and ran
out of the door into the yard followed
by about thirty keepers. After a lively
chase he was captured in a box car
where he had taken refuge and carried
back to his cage. Keeper Hollis was
knocked down by a blow from the
brute’s paw which, however, did not
1n1ure him seriously.
Constipation is positively cured by

by _re_gulat1ng and strengthening them.
This is done by improving the digestion
and stimulating the liver to the proper

A Startling Decision.
Judge Pennypacker, of the court of
common pleas in Philadelphia, has just
given a. decision which is of very gen-
eral interest. It is that social clubs
cannot sell intoxicating liquors, even to
members. without a license. Judge
Pennypacker said that the transac-
tions between the club and the receiver
of the liquors must be regarded as a
sale. There was a deliver of the pro-
perty accompanied by a c ange of title
for a money consideration, and a profit
was realized. The further question
whether it was such a. sale as was con-
templated by the legislature in framing
the act he discusses at length,reaching
the conclusion that it is such a sale. He
argues that the plain intent of the law
is to restrict the privilege of selling
liquor to a few licensed persons, who
are to be subject to certain specific reg-
ulations, and all others are forbidden
to sell or offer for sale intoxicating
liquors, with the exception only of
druggists and apotnecaries, not of clubs.
The statute also declares it to be “un-
lawful to keep or maintain any house,
room, or place, hotel, inn or tavern”
where liquors are sold by retail, “ex-
cept a license therefor shall have been
previously obtained.” This would
seem to be comprehensive enough to in-
clude clubs of every degree, since each
must have a house, room, or place in
which to dispense liquors to its mem~
here.
This decision has, of course, made a
big stir in Pennsylvania. It is expected
that the case will go to the Supreme
Court. Heretofore, as the Philadel—
phia Press put it, “the courts have in-
clmed to hold clubs as exempted on
various ingenious grounds from the
operation of the law.”

The Tuhey Case.
It will be remembered that some days
ago John Tuhey, of Franklin avenue,
the reported vendor of the no-license
cocktail, stated that he had been re-
lieved of $75, by a Mrs. Wright, who
lived next door. Tuhey made broad
statement as to the character of Mrs.
Wrightand the manner in which he
was relieved of the money, both to the
press and the .public. Immediately
after the published reports of the
scandal, Mrs. Wright employed lawyer
J. Belden _Hurlbutt to defend her
honor, and in that urbane manner Of
which lawyer Hurlbutt is a master, he
on Wednesday morning, secured from
Tuhey the followmg letter,which closes
the last act 1n the drama.
NORWALK, Conn., Jan. 13th, 1892.
Mr. Hurlbutt.
DEAR SIR: In regard to the matter about
which you wrote me regarding certain state-
ments. and claimed statements, made by me
about Mrs. Albert Wright, I have to say, that
man of them I never made. and that such as
I di make. are in fact untrue. At the time I
had been indulging and was somewhat excited
and mad. and made tlie statements because 1
was mad. and not because they were true. and
I have to say that they are not true in any par-
ticular. You can make use of this letter in
any way you choose. Yours trui .

Senator Hill’s Double.
When the first batch of plain drunks
was led before Justice Kilb-reth in the
Essex Market Police Court, New York,
Tuesday, the magistrate uttered an
exclamation of surprise. In front of
him stood a man whom any acquaint-
ance of David B. Hill might easily mis.
take for New York’s junior Senator.
Justice Kilbreth’s wonder grew when
he glanced through his papers and
found that the prisoner’s name was
Hill. He began to believe that Sena-
tor Hill might have a wicked twin
brother of whom nobody had ever
heard. The prisoner, when questioned,
promptly disclaimed any relationship
with the Elmira statesman, and ex-
plained that he is an insurance agent
who has recently been in hard luck.
On Monday afternoon, however, he
met a college chum who offered him an
excellent situation, and in glee over
this unexpected piece of good fortune,
Mr. Hill took several drinks too many.
Justice Kilbreth believed his story and.
discharged him.
