THAT TRAMP. 1 was just turning the best room upside down, sweeping, dusting and cleaning it. The sunlight streamed in through the creeper over the windows, which I had opened, an.l the sound of the birds singing outside made me wish I hadn't so much work to do In that dusty room. Suddenly I heard the click of the gate-latch. Somebody com- in.-. and me with my head wrapped up in a du-t >r and my skirt turned up] Then there was the rap of knuckles on the panel of the front d or, which was open. Thinking it was Widow Jenkins' littleboy come over to borrow the hatchet to chop kindlings, for he came regularly every day, I stepped Into the entry. It was a tramp. lie was ayoune man with a heavy beard, dressed In blue canvas and a straw hat, but with that shambling and half ashamed look which vagabonds seem to carry with them everywhere. New our home was seldom visited by tramps. It was a good piece oft tho road, ants they generally stopped at the black- smith's en the corner or at Deacon Thomas' half way up the hill. "What do you want?" I said sharply. But I relented a minute afterward. lie looked at me so piteously; he seemed so hot and tired and dusty that I felt sorry for him. 1was always considered the fool of the family. Iwas everybody's slave. If the boys wanted an errrand run or a button sewed on it was always, "Sally*ll do it." Sally was always the one left behind when there wr«s a party and only finery enough for two. It was Sally who stayed homo from meeting and lent her boot-i to one of the tners. Yet 1 believed 1 liked doing things for them, and for a kiss or a kind word would willingly have gone throng!) firo and water. Now that Uncle Kit was coming from California to make us a visit, it was I who was lelt at home to clean up and make the house -mart, while Floss and Peggy had gone to the village to buy some chintz for \u25a0 his rnnm curtains and a new white coverlet for ln« bed. "i »HLt something to cat aud a rest," replied the tramp. \u25a0 If only mother had been at home! Sho w»s away consulting over Martha Phillips' sick baby, for she was a rare nurs?, and Tallied the importance of being c.iiie.l unon on such occasions. Father and the boys were mowing in the meadow a mile away. My impulse was at once to invite the stranger in. He really seemed to have a respectable look under his rags and wretched dress at least I thought so for a moment, and I felt not the slightest fear of him. Probably he would go before the others came home and none would be the wiser. "Come in," I said. "You do look tired oat. Come in an.l I'll get you somethine cat." Ho give me a graU'tul look and followed me to the kitchen. There I quickly \u25a0ft a table. The instinct of hospitality \u25a0»woke in me. I set before* him Rome cold >eef, fresh butter, a. loaf of bread, and then \u25a0 Irew him some cool cider from the cellar. ( Ie ate leisurely and quietly, but made a good dinner. I don't know what possessed me, but after he had finished his dinner I asked him ifhe would take a nap uu the lounge in the sitting-room. Father always lay there for a short lime in the evening. Tnere 1 left my tramp «nd went on with my work. I swept out the par! r, dusted tlie mantlepiece and pictures, set fresh flowers in tiie va>e on the red cloth of the center table, and after giving a few touches So the brass -ioor bandies and putting new ribbons on the curtain* 1 returned to the utling-ro'im. The fact of itis 1was filled with anxiety lest my mother or the girls or my father should come home while the tramp was there. If they did, woe betide me. I knew 1should never hear the last of it. "Just like Sally." "Any more tramps been uruuni. bally?" •> illy, heard from that ran.i'?" and such l.ko speeches would De dinned in my ears night and day forever. The tramp I found preparing to go; but somehow he seemed to hesitate. "Are you s>>Ing, sir?" 1 asked. "Well, I ! ope you f-el better." I didn't ald "call Sain," words that were on uiy lips. Still le lni2PreJ. '.. " Can Ido anything more fur you?" I in- Tilreil. On, how 1 regretted that speech a .i mi Dt afterward. \u25a0 " You've been such a dear, ccod young .*',\u25a0_\u25a0 to me," he said warm " that I'm to- blK to ask a loan of you." 1 believe 1looked thunderstruck. " 1 have no money to buy a ticket to Har- ristown. Wont you be so kind as to lend me some?" Dear, dear, what would my folks say if they thought I was ;: Ing to lend money in a tramp. But lend it 1 did— I put into h s large bruwn hand the whole of in. six Booths' savings. 1 felt almost afraid of my folly at the time, but he took it with a smile, thanked me profusely, and the next thing 1 knew lie was going down the lane, toward the main road. A sudden thought occurred to me. " Come back for a moment," I cried. He turned round and i.a-.tily approached the piazza. " Are you going to theaepot?" I inquired. . "1 am," he answered. " Well, your shortest way is round the house. Follow the path through the orchard, past the barn and down the p isture. it will bring you to the back road, and save you tuif an hour's walk in the sun. Turn to the lei at tie pasture *ato and Keep right on." . -He thanked me, smiled again and was \u25a0one. \u25a0••"Now," 1 thought, "he's sure to meet none of the folks coming home." Then I Brew a brt-ath of relief, and after tidying myself dragged the rocking-chair on to the veranda and tried to feel as unconcerned as \u25a0possible a-. I watted for father and the rest to return.^ ilo'.bcr came home first, full of the symp- toms a.d sufferings of Martha Phillips' Baby ; then floss and Peggy drove up in the gngtfjr, eager to show us their purchases. Father and the boys arrived in lime for sup- That evening the innrt 8 a X was discussed tgalo. The subject of the mortgage that lay m the. farm was periodically uUcua»ed Those who own mortgaged farms and know their owners will understand what I mean by saying that the mention of mortgages jiakcs n:e sick. That mortgage it was that rriulered my mother old bel .re her time uud maiie liiyfather appear an Incarnation of :ovctousness. Hie niggaidliness and closeness which necessity had made the rule of his life was Dot, I believe, natural to him; but it was ground Inhim by the mortgage and the pay- ing the interest. Day and night dolirrs anil cents profit and prices, were the whol- topic ot conversation. Every penny was grudg- ingly doled out, every expense which meant laying out money was cut off. Everything that could be sold eff the farm was sol hay, butter, eggs and beef, and swallowed up by this mortgage. It was only by our own private poultry, and the sale of milk from our own cow, and by knitting that we girls manage! to scrape together enough to dress on. The carking care, the pinching poverty in the midst of plenty which wears ' more than anything else on heart and mind, are to be found in perfection in the home of a fanner whose farm carries a mort- cage. The removal of the mortgage, which was once the dream of my father's life, had fora long lime passed out of the range of bis hopes. It was hard enough to pay the interest It was natural enough, therefore, that the return of my uncle from California with a fortune brought up the subject of the mortgage. "1 shouldn't be surprised if ho lifted it at last for me," said my father that evening. "I've often asked him and he's never given me a decided answer. II« must be pretty well fixed now and 1 hirfped him when he was n boy." ; / - - And this opinion veemed to be shared by mother and the toys. My uncle's arrival was looked upo> as a sort of bonanza to the fajiiily. It w«s therefore with great excite- ment that ye heard the news that Jake Ed- wards ws>* driving ud strangers from the station «nd that they were coming to Squire Saup'tei'a. This message was brought by the small boy on the shaggy white pony who carried the letters from the station to our postoffice and who picked up this bit of gos- lip when the mail train came in and had out- stripped Jake Edwards' team, which was cfrti.iuly more noted lor strength than speed. fattier and the boys bad hired a neighbor to go <n with the baying and dressed them- srlves in their bent, mother had on her gray satin with a pink ribbon in her cap, and we girls had made ourselves just too fine for \u25a0bribing. At last the team appeared, black horses and square, oilskin-covered coach. A tall man, tawny and bearded, leaped from tin seat and came up the veranda steps, « here all the family were rauued to meet him. 11« shook hands with father, kissed mother and then turned to us girls. Floss was the beauty of the family and was first presented for a kiss, then Peggy and Inn i.l nil myself, though I was older than Peggy ; but I was plain and quiet. "Three line gal-," said my Uncle Kit, "and yer boys seem kind of hearty, too, but it mast be hard work toiling and sweating on this rocky soil. I wish you was all in Californy." Then he paused. "1 have a friend, Noah Broadhead, in the carriage. I would like to introduce you to him, brother Will, and if you can give him a bit/ and a sup, and accommodate him and me with beds for one night I'll be grateful—" " Certainly, certainly," cried my mother. "Ask him in and introduce him." A gentleman dressed in spick ond span new clothes, clean shaven and really nice looking, was led up by Uncle Kit aud in- troduced all around as his friend, Xoah Broadband. 1 thought I had seen the face before, as then 1 was Bomethins very familiar in tho expression of his eyes, but could not re- member where. At the time it occurred to me that itmight have been iv meeting or at liarristown. However we made a very merry party. I had been so of ten teased and quizzed about my "softness" that it was quite a relief when tho mortgage, Uncle Kit and dinner took up all thought and conversation. But after dinner 1 had a somewhat trying ordeal to C" through. The fact of it was Uncle Kit made a BpeecD. "Isee, Brother Will," he said, "that after all you are much better off than 1 am." (Sensation, ns tbf.y say In the news- papers.) " You have a fine farm and a line family." , , "And a fine mortgage," said my father under his breatn, but Uncle Kit did not hear him. "As for me," went on Uncle Kit, "I'm not so rich as 1 would like to be. lam not even so rich as you are." There was a breathless paiiie here. "I am bound to say that if it hain't been for a member of this family 1should never have learned how rich you are." My father started, flushed and grew al- most angry, lie thought he was being quizzed. " Hold on till I've finished, Will," went on my uncle. "Yesterday morning I thought I was twice as rich as you are, and it is through a member of your family, 1 repeat, [bat 1 learned my mistake." Who could it be that had told Uncle Kit that we were rich? Every one looked at the other. .Mv father evidently was much per- turbed. Air. Noah Bruadhead's face wore a kind of amused smile; whether he was secretly laughing at my unc!« or at my father, or was amused at Deing taken so suddenly into family confidences 1 did not know. "Amember of this family yesterday ad- mitted a tramp into thU house," weut on tin- speaker. "It must have been that Sally," whis- pered pretty Floss and Peggy, and all eyes immediately were fixed on me. " The tramp was fed and rested, ana be- fore going away it stocking— l believe it was a stocking, Noah was prolucedand certain dimes, quarters and fifty-cent pieces counted out and given to this worthless vagabond." Mother looked reproachfully at me. 1 dare not look at father; the two boys seemed puzzled. Had my foolish generosity to the tramp conveyed tlie notion to my uncle that we were tuo well off to need Ills assistance? The idea seemed absurd, im- possible. "That tramp," went on mv uncle, "was an old mate of mine, and but for this money would not have met me at lltirristown and offered me the chance of making a big fort- une out of your farm." "You're welcome to do that. Kit," said my father, dryly, "if only you'll give me half of it." "That tramp," continued Uncle Kit, "showed me the finest specimen of nimga- nese that 1had ever seen— and I understand from him that he found it in your pasture. Brother, you wrote to me asking rue to lift your mortgage. I can't do -th.it, but you've got a daughter in your house who is cood enuugn to 111 ike the heaviest mortgage in the world lighter than a feather. I'll tell you what 1 will do. I will taKe shares enough in your manganese mine to lift all the mortgages in the village." My father looked stupelied for a moment, my mother stared nt him and blushed for sheer joy. Even the boys seemed to waken up to the good news, and I was for a mo- ment eyed with admiration by nil. So I didn't get very much teased after all about entertaining that tramp. Mr. Noah Broadhead, who professed to be a chemist, examined the manganese deposit djwn In our pasture that very day aud pronounced it one of the richest in our part of the world. We still live on the old farm, but we tinar no more 0! mortgages, and it was only yes- terday that Floss said to me, "Oh, Sally, how lucky it was that you were so kind to that tramp." But i li ivc never yet been able to per- suade myself that the tramp and Mr. Noah Broadliead were not the same person. Springfield Homestead. REAL ESTATE TEANSACTIONS.

An Outlawed Sailor's Narrow Es- cape From Death. \u25a0 The Old Hartford to Be Hade a School-Ship for Boys— Cattle on Second Street. More Coal Arrives. Half a dozen wild steers brought over on the Transit created a panic at the foot of Second street yesterday morning. They caused every one In their neighborhood to uiiike quirk time in getting to a place of safety. They went into lite lluinboldt lum- ber-yards like a troop of cav.-tiry and fright- ened a team of horses so badly that they tore their harness all to pieces trying to cot away. A small b>y who cot in the road of Ihe mad brutes went sailing skyward, but escaped with a few bruises. The animals were captured before any further damage was done. Over 70,000 tons of coal have been brought to Kan Francisco during the last three weeks, yet the price of coal does not come down. It is stilted that the old war-Ship Hartford, once the flag-ship of Admiral Farragut, will be fitted out as a school-ship for boys and anchored in this harbor. "WOULD "NOT DRINK HUM. The British ship Thalatta, Captain Pen- nicuik, arrived in port yesterday after a passage of seventy-five days from New- castle, X. S. \V. '1 he captain reports that while, the ship was Dashing the islands of the Cook group they were so near the Island of Maugerla on December 17th that the natives camp off in their canoes, bringing fruits and shells to trade. The captain offered them beef, pork and rum in ex- change, but strange to say, while the beef and pork were accepted, tlio rum was re- fused. On being asked the reason the natives said they had a law on the island thai no one should either bring rum there or use it on the Island. It was also learned that their time was so taken up raising cot- ton that they had no time to catch fish. Allmail for I'iratu Cove, TJnga, Bellioff- sky, S.uiak aud Marzovia will be forwarded on the schooner Czar, sailing Thursday, February l'.Uh, if left at the dike of ih \u25a0 Mc- Collaiu Fishing and Trading Company, 203 Front street. A WALKING JEWKLBT-6TOBK. A man who gave his name as John Wood? was arrested yesterday afternoon about 3:30 o'clock by Officer Dwyer. Woods was at the ferry landing, and created considerable dis- turbance, as tie wanted to wrestle some one. When the oilier came on the scene Woods had hold of a stout young teamster, and no doubt tlin arrival of the officer saved the disturber from a good drubbing. OlUYer Dwyer took him to the North Harbor Sta- tiou, and a search revealed the fact that the man was a walking jewelry-store. Five gold watches, seven gold chains, two dia- mond rings and £1! 80 were found on him. Ho was locKed up pending an Investigation, LIVELYHUNAWAYS. Two wrecked wagons were the result of a runaway on Broadway yesterday after- noon about 2 o'clock. The horse attached to a vegetable wagon ran away uud collided with a heavy four-horse truck standing in front of the Broadway Warehouse and sent the heavy team down Broadway on a run. At the enrner if Broadway anil Davis street the heavy truck collided with a laundry wagon belonging to Jehu Mclsaacs, throw- ing the driver of the latter out arm smash- ing Im.ili front wheels. At this point the runaways were capture I by tho driver, who had followed them down the street. The Pacific Mail Company's steamer China, which is duo from China and Japan on Saturday next, has on board forty-e&bt Chinese for this port. TED Tlir. TEBBOB. A number of seafaring men were In the office of a well-known shlpchandler yester- day and the conversation turned on the present civil war in Chile. Nearly every one present had something to say of what he had seen down there, when an oid captain who has long since retired from the perils of the sea spoke up. "Did yon fellows ever hear of fighting Ted Driscoll?" he asked, and then con- tinued, "Ted was the terror of the vigilantes in Valparaiso for a long time. Driscoll was an American, born in liooton, I think. lie was a tine looking fellow, six feet Id height, strong as an ox and a fighter ail over. Ted had got <iowu to Valparaiso In a man-of-war and 1 suptose lie did nut like Him discipline. Anyhow he deserted and so far hs 1know no efforts were made to take him back. No doubt the Captain was glad he wag cone. The man made a living on the beacn as a runner fur a boarding-house until one day in a dispute over some money he beat the boarding master so idly that the latter was con lined to the hospital for three mouths. I'.OBBED SAILORS. "After that Ted look to robbing sailors for a living. He would knock a man down in broad daylight, and once when a police- mau tried to arrest him be beat the ollicer so ba.ily t:iey had to curry the official home. Ted';, time came at Ust. One day he eot so drunk lie Could not stand, and before he sobered up the Captain of the Port lud him under lock and key. They have a way of punishing offenders down ther« oy putting them in the army, and after a trial Ted was sent to the army under h six months' sen- tence. Every one thought he would clear out the first chance he had, but it seems the Captain of the company Ted was sent to took a liking to tbe fellow and m ide him a Sergeant, Everything went along all right till the recruit got fullof whisky and raised such a row in the barracks that the officer in charge ordered Driscoll placod under ar- rest aud locked up. PA TERRIBLE FIGHT. 'This bo enraeed Ted , that he sprang upon the officer ami with one blow nl his nst smashed the mxn's jaw. They had a terrible fight before he was secured. Dris- coll's character was so bad that he was tried by court-martial and sentenced to be shot. Ted appealed to ihn United States Consul, but that gentleman declined to Interfere. The man was such a notorious ruffian that every one seemed to think he deserved what he was to get. On the day set for the ex- ecution nearly the entire population of Val- paraiso turned out to see him aie. The place selected for the execution waa away up on the lull over the town and just below the big fort. At 9 o'clock, when the man was led out, the sld« of the hill below the fort was packed with people Ted looked at the grave dug to receive him and then at the vast concourse of people, ami to his credit be it said he showed uo sign of fear. UXI>EK FIRE. "Driscoll was placed standing beside the open crave. There was no coffin, and tho officer in charce asked him if he had any- thing to say. 'Nothing,' he replied. 'Only take these irons oil' my hands and let me die free.' The officer never for an instant dreamed of any trick, and ordered tho irons taken off his wrists. This was soon done, and every one fell back, and the American desperado was left alone to die. The twelve boMlers who were to do the snooting were inarched out and took their station about forty yards from the prisoner. I heir puns were already loaded, and in a clear voice came the order in Spanish, Aim! fire I' As the order lire was given Dri-coll threw himself flat on his face and every bullet missed him. A DASH FOB LIBERTY. "The next Instant he was on his feet, and before the astonished soldiers could under- stand what had happened Driscoll was dashing through the crowds of people and going for town like a greyhound. The sol- diers dare not fire as tho crowd followed the fugitive, and he soon disappeared in the direction of the lauding. The soldiers searched every ship in the harbor, but in vain; they never got him. No doubt the fellow was hid in some ot the boarding- houses until a change came to get him out of th« country. Driscoll finally reached New York, but his experience in Chile did not do him any good, ns he was convicted of killing a policeman, and, after \u25a0 lone trial, hanged iv the Tombs." The pile-driver was at work yesterday putting down the additional piles for the aprons at Loiubard--treet Wharf. FOR HONOLULU, Tho steamer Zealandia sailed yesterday for Honolulu.

The Heirs Seemed Indomitable, But at last, After Repeated Adverses, Accepted the Inevitable. The Supreme Court yesterday brought to a close one of the most protracted and ha- rassing litigations in the history of Califor- nia by finding in favor of the administratrix in a controversy growing out of the estate of William 11. Moore. " Having filed her final account for settln- ment in Santa Cruz County, the heirs made objection to the allowance of certain items therein, after hearing which the Probate Judge allowed them. From this order an appeal was taken, chiefly on account of the allowance lor certain expenditures in the repair of the Pacific Ocean House, a well- known hostelry in Santa Cruz. The executrix had obtained permission to disburse a stated amount In this behalf, but went beyond the precise directions of tho court in certain particulars. It was urged by the appellants that the court had 110 right to allow for the extra expenditures, but the Supreme Court, in the opinion handed down by Judge Harrison, held that merely because she had made repairs with- out a previous order authorizing them they should not therefore bo disallowed. THEY WERE PIONEERS OF TUE STATE. "The Moores came to California long be- fore the discovery of gold made mammon worship an inducement to seek these shores," said an attorney at the Supreme Court yesterday, "and became well-known for miles around the district in which they lived, Santa Cruz County. It is said that their former Lome was in the South— at any rate they had all the Southern proclivities, for their popularity arose from a never-fail- ing hospitality, together with a 'devil-may- care' way of talking and acting, which made them most enjoyable companions, '"Mrs. Moore was especially liked by the children, and, if you will believe it, cno reason was that she always kept on hand a large barrel of pickled pigs' feet, a comesti- ble which the youngsters was very fond of. lii 11 Moore, as he was called, was their son, inheriting all the peculiarities of his parents, He was perhaps a little wild, but extremely good-hearted, and, withal, well liked. By a marriage with his first wife be had several children, but on her death he was united to a pretty school-teacher, with large black eyes and gentle refiued manners. MOORE WAS SLAI.V. "Notwithstanding the seeming want of harmony in the match tne couple were very happy, Hillspending most of his time on Hit) Moore ranch, near Santa Cruz, the property still being known by that name. "One day, however, after Hill had de- parted to town for si me stores the young wife received the startling intelligence that her Husband had been slain by an assassin. '1 tie shock prostrated her, and for days she lay in a critical condition, hut at last slit) was able to attend to the affairs of the de- ceased, and naturally thn question of the distribution of the property arose. "A- has bo«n said, Moore had children by his first wife, who were bis heirs, and they approached the young widow with a propo- rtion by which she was to give up all Her right to the remaining property on the chil- d 1en's surrendering to her their title to certain valuable lands in Santa Cruz County. These terms she accepted, being anxious to avoid all litigation ami Controversy. Sub- sequently her child was born, and she saw that by her agreement she had barred his succession. LITIGATION'COMMENCED. "She immediately began suit, therefore, to have the contract set aside, alleging that at the time it was entered into she was men- tally unable to properly transact business, and that she was unaware of any possibility of her giving birth to a child. Thus began the litleatiou that was to harass her fur years. Time and again she was awarded judgment by the courts, only to have the heirs come forward again with more legal proceedings. "At last, however, the matter was fin illy settled in her favur, although the boast had been made that not until every penny in their possession had been expended would the heirs desist, and then a controversy arose over the administration of the estate. Here again she was successful, but. as above stated, a new suit arose out uf the ac- tion of the court in allowing the Pacific Ocean House disbursements. This last de- cision willprobably draw the much-litigated questions to a close* v * FB ETCH'S TESTIMONY. Mrs. Smith Wan Surprised That Damn .Made Hit a Devisee. The direct examination of K. G.French, attorney at law, was resumed yesterday fur the proponents iv the Dama will contest, and the witness testified that on Sunday, July 22, 1888, he and It. W. Uurlis went to ;Sl7 Mason street, the residence of Mrs. Julin- Bon, the nurse, who told them that Mr.-. Smith had been there atid said that there w.i> a package of papers at iier house which she whs prepared to deliver to the proper representatives of Dana's estate. Finding Mr-. Smith, she presented the witness with a package of papers done uuin brown paDer, saying that the knot with which the pack thread was tied would not be easily untied, as Datna had told her that he had tied it with "his peculiar kimt." Mr. liurtis cut the -string with his knife, taking from tl.e package a yellow envelope (presented iv evidence by tho witness) en- closing a white one, the latter containing the will in controversy, which was foitti- with read alnnd by liurtis. After its read- ing, Mrs. .Snith said: "This is a surprise to me. i had no need of it; we have enough without it, and 1 wish he had left it U>some- b. dy needing itmore." Continuing the witness said: "Itold Mrs. Smith the willshould be tiled in thirty days. Although she requested me to do so as her attorney i had a delicacy about doing so, owing to my connection with tho codi- maodery. I finally consented to take charge of the papers, however. 1 consented also to seeing that Dama's body was embalmed and >e:it Bast, I procured tbe services of l'r. Keuyon iii this behalf, telling him that the body was to go East for interment. I tele- giauheii Kast to one iieniamin liaudall and to J. W. Ballon, signing myself 'Commander of (J. (j. Commandery,' receiving no response from Ballon, but a letter from Randall. The witness contradicted the testimony of John T. Harris as to the tiling uf tho will, saying it was done on January 30, 1888, it having been admitted to prob.itit'ou Febru- ary "!ith following. Mr. French produced all the papers found in the S ife Deposit box, oi:e of them being a copyof \V. B. 1. Dama's will. On cross-examination Mr. French testified substantially ns on the direct, notwithstand- ing Attorney Kowalsk's attempt-: tube- fuddle him.

THAT TRAMP.1 was just turning the best room upside

down, sweeping, dusting and cleaning it.The sunlight streamed in through thecreeper over the windows, which Ihadopened, an.l the sound of the birds singingoutside made me wish Ihadn't so much workto do In that dusty room. Suddenly Iheardthe click of the gate-latch. Somebody com-in.-. and me with my head wrapped up inadu-t >r and my skirt turned up] Then therewas the rap of knuckles on the panel of thefront d or, which was open. Thinking itwas Widow Jenkins' littleboy come over toborrow the hatchet to chop kindlings, forhe came regularly every day, Istepped Intothe entry.It was a tramp. lie was ayoune man with

aheavy beard, dressed In blue canvas and astraw hat, but with that shambling and halfashamed look which vagabonds seem tocarry with them everywhere.

New our home was seldom visited bytramps. It was a good piece oft tho road,ants they generally stopped at the black-smith's en the corner or at Deacon Thomas'half wayup the hill.

"What do you want?" Isaid sharply.But Irelented a minute afterward. lielooked at me so piteously; he seemed sohot and tired and dusty that Ifelt sorry forhim.1was always considered the fool of the

family. Iwas everybody's slave. If theboys wanted an errrand run or a buttonsewed on it was always, "Sally*ll do it."Sally was always the one left behind whenthere wr«s a party and only finery enoughfor two. It was Sally who stayed homofrom meeting and lent her boot-i to one ofthe tners. Yet 1 believed 1 liked doingthings for them, and for a kiss or a kindword would willingly have gone throng!) firoand water.

Now that Uncle Kit was coming fromCalifornia to make us a visit, itwas Iwhowas lelt at home to clean up and make thehouse -mart, while Floss and Peggy hadgone to the village to buy some chintz for

\u25a0 his rnnm curtains and a new white coverletfor ln« bed."i »HLt something to cat aud a rest,"

replied the tramp.\u25a0 Ifonly mother had been at home! Show»s away consulting over Martha Phillips'sick baby, for she was a rare nurs?, andTallied the importance of being c.iiie.l unonon such occasions. Father and the boyswere mowing in the meadow a mile away.My impulse was at once to invite thestranger in. He really seemed to have arespectable look under his rags andwretched dress —

at least Ithought so for amoment, and Ifeltnot the slightest fear ofhim. Probably he would go before theothers came home and none would be thewiser.

"Come in,"Isaid. "You do look tiredoat. Come in an.l I'll get you somethinet» cat." Ho give me a graU'tul look andfollowed me to the kitchen. There Iquickly

\u25a0ft a table. The instinct of hospitality\u25a0»woke in me. Iset before* him Rome cold>eef, fresh butter, a.loaf of bread, and then

\u25a0 Irew him some cool cider from the cellar.(Ie ate leisurely and quietly, but made a

good dinner.Idon't know what possessed me, but

after he had finished his dinner Iaskedhim ifhe would take a nap uu the loungein the sitting-room. Father always laythere for a short lime in the evening.Tnere 1left my tramp «nd went on withmy work. Iswept out the par! r, dustedtlie mantlepiece and pictures, set fresh• flowers in tiie va>e on the red cloth of thecenter table, and after giving a few touchesSo the brass -ioor bandies and putting newribbons on the curtain* 1returned to theutling-ro'im.

The fact of itis 1was filled with anxietylest my mother or the girls or my fathershould come home while the tramp wasthere. Ifthey did, woe betide me. Iknew1should never hear the last of it. "Justlike Sally." "Any more tramps beenuruuni. bally?" •>illy, heard from thatran.i'?" and such l.ko speeches would De

dinned in my ears night and day forever.The tramp Ifound preparing to go; but

somehow he seemed to hesitate."Are you s>>Ing, sir?" 1asked. "Well, I

!ope you f-el better." Ididn't ald "callSain," words that were on uiylips. Still

le lni2PreJ.•'..

"Can Ido anything more fur you?" Iin-

Tilreil. On, how 1regretted that speech a.imi Dt afterward.

\u25a0

"You've been such a dear, ccod young

.*',\u25a0_\u25a0 to me," he said warm"

that I'm to-blK to ask a loan of you."

1 believe 1looked thunderstruck."1 have no money to buy a ticket to Har-

ristown. Wont you be so kind as to lendme some?"

Dear, dear, what would my folks say ifthey thought Iwas ;: Ing to lend money inatramp. Butlend it1did— Iput into h slarge bruwn hand the whole of in. sixBooths' savings. 1 felt almost afraid of myfolly at the time, but he took itwitha smile,thanked me profusely, and the next thing 1knew lie was going down the lane, towardthe main road. Asudden thought occurredto me."

Come back for a moment," Icried. Heturned round and i.a-.tily approached thepiazza."

Are you going to theaepot?" Iinquired.. "1am," he answered."Well, your shortest way is round the

house. Follow the path through the orchard,past the barn and down the p isture. it willbring you to the back road, and save youtuif an hour's walk in the sun. Turn tothelei at tie pasture *ato and Keep right on.". -He thanked me, smiled again and was\u25a0one.\u25a0••"Now," 1 thought, "he's sure to meetnone of the folks coming home." Then IBrew a brt-ath of relief, and after tidying•myself dragged the rocking-chair on to theveranda and tried to feel as unconcerned as

\u25a0possible a-. Iwatted for father and the restto return.^

ilo'.bcr came home first, full of the symp-toms a.d sufferings of Martha Phillips'Baby ;then floss and Peggy drove up in thegngtfjr, eager to show us their purchases.Father and the boys arrived in lime for sup-

That evening the innrt 8aX was discussedtgalo. The subject of the mortgage that laym the. farm was periodically uUcua»edThose who own mortgaged farms and knowtheir owners will understand what Imeanby saying that the mention of mortgagesjiakcs n:e sick. That mortgage it was thatrriulered my mother old bel .re her time uudmaiie liiyfather appear an Incarnation of:ovctousness.

Hie niggaidliness and closeness whichnecessity had made the rule of his life wasDot,Ibelieve, natural to him; but it wasground Inhim by the mortgage and the pay-ing the interest. Day and night dolirrs anilcents profit and prices, were the whol- topicot conversation. Every penny was grudg-ingly doled out, every expense which meantlaying out money was cut off. Everythingthat could be sold eff the farm was solhay, butter, eggs and beef, and swallowedup by this mortgage. It was only by ourown private poultry, and the sale of milkfrom our own cow, and by knitting that wegirls manage! to scrape together enough todress on. The carking care, the pinchingpoverty in the midst of plenty which wears'more than anything else on heart and mind,are to be found in perfection in the homeof a fanner whose farm carries a mort-cage. The removal of the mortgage, whichwas once the dream of my father's life, hadfora long lime passed out of the range ofbis hopes. Itwas hard enough to pay theinterest It was natural enough, therefore,that the return of my uncle from Californiawitha fortune brought up the subject of themortgage.

"1shouldn't be surprised ifho lifted it atlast for me," said my father that evening."I'veoften asked him and he's never givenme a decided answer. II« must be prettywellfixed now and 1hirfped him when hewas n boy." ;/

- -And this opinion veemed to be shared by

mother and the toys. My uncle's arrivalwas looked upo> as a sort of bonanza to thefajiiily. Itw«s therefore with great excite-ment that ye heard the news that Jake Ed-wards ws>* driving ud strangers from thestation «nd that they were coming to SquireSaup'tei'a. This message was brought bythe small boy on the shaggy white pony whocarried the letters from the station to ourpostoffice and who picked up this bit of gos-lip when the mail train came inand had out-stripped Jake Edwards' team, which wascfrti.iuly more noted lor strength thanspeed. •

fattier and the boys bad hired a neighborto go <n with the baying and dressed them-srlves in their bent, mother had on her graysatin witha pink ribbon in her cap, and wegirls had made ourselves just too fine for\u25a0bribing. At last the team appeared, black

horses and square, oilskin-covered coach. Atall man, tawny and bearded, leaped fromtin seat and came up the veranda steps,« here all the family were rauued to meethim. 11« shook hands with father, kissedmother and then turned to us girls.

Floss was the beauty of the family andwas first presented for a kiss, then Peggyand Inni.l nil myself, though Iwas olderthan Peggy ;but Iwas plain and quiet.

"Three line gal-," said my Uncle Kit,"and yer boys seem kind of hearty, too, butit mast be hard work toiling and sweatingon this rocky soil. Iwish you was all inCaliforny." Then he paused.

"1have a friend, Noah Broadhead, in thecarriage. Iwould like to introduce you tohim, brother Will, and if you can give him abit/ and a sup, and accommodate him andme with beds for one night

—I'll be

grateful—""Certainly, certainly," cried my mother.

"Ask him inand introduce him."A gentleman dressed in spick ond span

new clothes, clean shaven and really nicelooking, was led up by Uncle Kit aud in-troduced all around as his friend, XoahBroadband.1 thought Ihad seen the face before, as

then1was Bomethins very familiar in thoexpression of his eyes, but could not re-member where. At the time it occurred tome that itmight have been ivmeeting orat liarristown.

However we made a very merry party. Ihad been so often teased and quizzed aboutmy "softness" that it was quite a reliefwhen tho mortgage, Uncle Kit and dinnertook up allthought and conversation. Butafter dinner 1 had a somewhat trying ordealto C" through.

The fact of it was Uncle Kit made aBpeecD. "Isee, Brother Will," he said,"thatafter all you are much better offthan1 am." (Sensation, ns tbf.y say In the news-papers.)

"You have a fine farm and a line

family." , ,"And a fine mortgage," said my father

under his breatn, but Uncle Kit did nothear him.

"As for me," went on Uncle Kit, "I'mnotso rich as 1 would like to be. lam not evenso rich as you are." There was a breathlesspaiiie here."Iam bound to say that ifithain't been

for a member of this family 1should neverhave learned how rich you are."

My father started, flushed and grew al-most angry, lie thought he was beingquizzed."

Hold on till I've finished, Will," went onmy uncle. "Yesterday morning IthoughtIwas twice as rich as you are, and itisthrough a member of your family,1repeat,[bat 1learned my mistake."

Who could it be that had told Uncle Kitthat we were rich? Every one looked at theother. .Mv father evidently was much per-turbed. Air. Noah Bruadhead's face wore akind of amused smile; whether he wassecretly laughing at my unc!« or at myfather, or was amused at Deing taken sosuddenly into family confidences 1did notknow.

"Amember of this family yesterday ad-mitted a tramp into thU house," weut ontin- speaker."Itmust have been that Sally," whis-

pered pretty Floss and Peggy, and all eyesimmediately were fixed on me."

The tramp was fed and rested, ana be-fore going away itstocking—lbelieve it wasa stocking, Noah

—was prolucedand certain

dimes, quarters and fifty-cent pieces countedout and given to this worthless vagabond."

Mother looked reproachfully at me. 1dare not look at father; the two boysseemed puzzled. Had my foolish generosityto the tramp conveyed tlie notion to myuncle that we were tuo well off to need Illsassistance? The idea seemed absurd, im-possible.

"That tramp," went on mv uncle, "wasan old mate of mine, and but for this moneywould not have met me at lltirristown andoffered me the chance of making a big fort-une out of your farm."

"You're welcome to do that. Kit,"said myfather, dryly, "if only you'll give me halfof it."

"That tramp," continued Uncle Kit,"showed me the finest specimen of nimga-nese that 1had ever seen— and Iunderstandfrom him that he found it in your pasture.Brother, you wrote to me asking rue to liftyour mortgage. Ican't do -th.it, but you'vegot a daughter in your house who is coodenuugn to 111 ike the heaviest mortgage inthe world lighter than a feather. I'll tellyou what 1 will do. Iwill taKe sharesenough in your manganese mine to lift allthe mortgages in the village."

My father looked stupelied for a moment,my mother stared nt him and blushed forsheer joy. Even the boys seemed to wakenup to the good news, and Iwas for a mo-ment eyed with admiration by nil.

SoIdidn't get very much teased after allabout entertaining that tramp. Mr. NoahBroadhead, who professed to be a chemist,examined the manganese deposit djwn Inour pasture that very day aud pronouncedit one of the richest in our part of theworld.

We still live on the old farm, but we tinarno more 0! mortgages, and it was only yes-terday that Floss said to me, "Oh, Sally,how luckyitwas that you were so kind tothat tramp."

But iliivc never yet been able to per-suade myself that the tramp and Mr. NoahBroadliead were not the same person.

TED Tlir. TEBBOB.A number of seafaring men were In the

office of a well-known shlpchandler yester-day and the conversation turned on thepresent civil war in Chile. Nearly everyone present had something to say of whathe had seen down there, when an oidcaptain who has long since retired from theperils of the sea spoke up.

"Did yon fellows ever hear of fightingTed Driscoll?" he asked, and then con-tinued, "Ted was the terror of the vigilantesin Valparaiso for a long time. Driscoll wasan American, born in liooton, Ithink.lie was a tine looking fellow, six feet Idheight, strong as an ox and a fighter ailover. Ted had got <iowu to Valparaiso Inaman-of-war and 1 suptose lie did nut likeHim discipline. Anyhow he deserted and sofar hs 1know no efforts were made to takehim back. No doubt the Captain was gladhe wag cone. The man made a livingonthe beacn as a runner fur a boarding-houseuntilone day in a dispute over some moneyhe beat the boarding master so idly thatthe latter was con lined to the hospital forthree mouths.

I'.OBBED SAILORS."After that Ted look to robbing sailors

fora living. He would knock a man downinbroad daylight, and once when a police-mau tried to arrest him be beat the ollicerso ba.ily t:iey had to curry the official home.Ted';, time came at Ust. One day he eot sodrunk lie Could not stand, and before hesobered up the Captain of the Port lud himunder lock and key. They have a way ofpunishing offenders down ther« oy puttingthem in the army, and after a trial Ted wassent to the army under h six months' sen-tence. Every one thought he would clearout the first chance he had, but it seemsthe Captain of the company Ted was sent totook a likingto tbe fellow and m ide him aSergeant, Everything went along all righttill the recruit got fullof whisky and raisedsuch a row in the barracks that the officerin charge ordered Driscoll placod under ar-rest aud locked up.

PA TERRIBLE FIGHT.'This bo enraeed Ted , that he sprang

upon the officer ami with one blow nl hisnst smashed the mxn's jaw. They had aterrible fight before he was secured. Dris-coll's character was so bad that he was triedby court-martial and sentenced to be shot.Ted appealed to ihn United States Consul,but that gentleman declined to Interfere.The man was such a notorious ruffian thatevery one seemed to think he deserved whathe was to get. On the day set for the ex-ecution nearly the entire population of Val-paraiso turned out to see him aie. Theplace selected for the execution waa awayup on the lullover the town and just belowthe big fort. At 9 o'clock, when the manwas led out, the sld« of the hillbelow thefort was packed with people Ted lookedat the grave dug to receive him and then atthe vast concourse of people, ami to hiscredit be itsaid he showed uo sign of fear.

UXI>EK FIRE."Driscoll was placed standing beside the

open crave. There was no coffin, and thoofficer in charce asked him if he had any-thing to say. 'Nothing,' he replied. 'Onlytake these irons oil' my hands and let medie free.' The officer never for an instantdreamed of any trick, and ordered thoirons taken off his wrists. This was soondone, and every one fell back, and theAmerican desperado was left alone to die.The twelve boMlers who were to do thesnooting were inarched out and took theirstation about forty yards from the prisoner.Iheir puns were already loaded, and in aclear voice came the order in Spanish,Aim! fireI' As the order lire was given

Dri-coll threw himself flat on his face andevery bullet missed him.A DASH FOB LIBERTY.

"The next Instant he was on his feet, andbefore the astonished soldiers could under-stand what had happened Driscoll wasdashing through the crowds of people andgoing for town like a greyhound. The sol-diers dare not fire as tho crowd followedthe fugitive, and he soon disappeared in thedirection of the lauding. The soldierssearched every ship in the harbor, but invain; they never got him. No doubt thefellow was hid in some ot the boarding-houses until a change came to get him outof th« country. Driscoll finally reachedNew York, but his experience in Chile didnot do him any good, ns he was convicted ofkilling a policeman, and, after \u25a0 lone trial,hanged ivthe Tombs."

BILL MOORE'S ESTATE

A Bitter Legal Strife EndedAfter Many Years.

The Heirs Seemed Indomitable, But atlast, After Repeated Adverses,

Accepted the Inevitable.

The Supreme Court yesterday brought toa close one of the most protracted and ha-rassing litigations in the history of Califor-nia by finding in favor of the administratrixin a controversy growing out of the estateof William 11. Moore." Having filed her final account for settln-ment in Santa Cruz County, the heirs madeobjection to the allowance of certain itemstherein, after hearing which the ProbateJudge allowed them. From this order anappeal was taken, chiefly on account of theallowance lor certain expenditures in therepair of the Pacific Ocean House, a well-known hostelry in Santa Cruz.

The executrix had obtained permission todisburse a stated amount In this behalf, butwent beyond the precise directions of thocourt in certain particulars. Itwas urgedby the appellants that the court had 110

right to allow for the extra expenditures,but the Supreme Court, in the opinionhanded down by Judge Harrison, held thatmerely because she had made repairs with-out a previous order authorizing them theyshould not therefore bo disallowed.

THEY WERE PIONEERS OF TUE STATE.

"The Moores came to California long be-fore the discovery of gold made mammonworship an inducement to seek theseshores," said an attorney at the Supreme

Court yesterday, "and became well-knownfor miles around the district in which theylived, Santa Cruz County. It is said thattheir former Lome was in the South— at anyrate they had all the Southern proclivities,for their popularity arose from a never-fail-ing hospitality, together with a 'devil-may-care' way of talking and acting, which madethem most enjoyable companions,

'"Mrs. Moore was especially liked by thechildren, and, if you will believe it, cnoreason was that she always kept on hand alarge barrel of pickled pigs' feet, a comesti-ble which the youngsters was very fond of.lii11 Moore, as he was called, was their son,inheriting all the peculiarities of his parents,He was perhaps a little wild, but extremelygood-hearted, and, withal, wellliked. By amarriage with his first wife be had severalchildren, but on her death he was united toa pretty school-teacher, with large blackeyes and gentle refiued manners.

MOORE WAS SLAI.V."Notwithstanding the seeming want of

harmony in the match tne couple were veryhappy, Hillspending most of his time on Hit)Moore ranch, near Santa Cruz, the propertystill being known by that name.

"One day, however, after Hill had de-parted to town for sime stores the youngwife received the startling intelligence thather Husband had been slain by an assassin.'1 tie shock prostrated her, and for days shelay in a critical condition, hut at last slit)was able to attend to the affairs of the de-ceased, and naturally thn question of thedistribution of the property arose.

"A-has bo«n said, Moore had children byhis first wife, who were bis heirs, and theyapproached the young widow with a propo-rtion by which she was to give up allHerright to the remaining property on the chil-d1en's surrendering to her their title tocertain valuable lands in Santa Cruz County.These terms she accepted, being anxious toavoid all litigation ami Controversy. Sub-sequently her child was born, and she sawthat by her agreement she had barred hissuccession.

LITIGATION'COMMENCED."She immediately began suit, therefore,

to have the contract set aside, alleging thatat the time it was entered into she was men-tally unable to properly transact business,and that she was unaware of any possibilityof her giving birth to a child. Thus beganthe litleatiou that was to harass her furyears. Time and again she was awardedjudgment by the courts, only to have theheirs come forward again with more legalproceedings.

"Atlast, however, the matter was fin illysettled in her favur, although the boast hadbeen made that not until every penny intheir possession had been expended wouldthe heirs desist, and then a controversyarose over the administration of the estate.Here again she was successful, but. asabove stated, a new suit arose out uf the ac-tion of the court in allowing the PacificOcean House disbursements. This last de-cision willprobably draw the much-litigatedquestions to a close* v*

The witness contradicted the testimony ofJohn T. Harris as to the tiling uf tho will,saying it was done on January 30, 1888, ithaving been admitted to prob.itit'ou Febru-ary "!ith following. Mr. French producedall the papers found in the S ife Deposit box,oi:e of them being a copyof \V.B.1. Dama'swill.
