About him the dry leaves are dancing in the melancholy autumn wind, and the sun is darting . long, reddish rays through the bare boughs above; the sky is blue as blue can be; and from the woods rises a pungent, aromatic odor. Jean Pegolan, sentient, through his tough hide, of some small part of all this poetry, this serenity of nature, whips up the gray with a will and turns her head homeward. It is quite true, to be sure, that the Prussians are marching on Paris, that here they have sacked a village, there burned a farm to the ground, and further on, shot some poor, unoffenftive creature dead. But, 1 ask you, what dif- ference can that possibly make to Jean Pegolan? Neither his house, nor his cat- tle, nor his crops, have suffered in the least from invasion. He saw some of the enemy at the neighboring town, where he had just been to sell some of the produce of his farm, and, dear me. Éte has not found that they are such monsters. One must admit that they are nien like any others. WI en he has passed the Green -Cross and sees the village before him, with its church steeple of gray slate and the gilt weather vane shining in the sunset, our honest farmer has a vision of the steaming dish of soup which awaits him on the table at honte, that brings the water to his month. 'Ili Git up!\ hut Instead of \getting up - the gray comes to a sudden standstill. A Prussian estafette, in passing has seized her bridle and sharply turns her out of the way. Then, as Pegolan is too Blow in making room, he raises his whip and slashes it across the farmer's face, from ear to ear. Certainly Jean Pegolan has always expressed the greatest respect for the conqueror, but this time, rage gets the better of him. Ile rises to his feet, seizes litre cf the benches of the eart and the Prussian rolls off his horse the next moment, with a broken skull. The shadows are growing deeper across the road, the woods are very still, the moon Is creeping up the horizon, half hidden behind a transpar- ent veil of clouds. Pegelan, who is now trembling in ev- ery limb, looks furtively around him. No one has Peen the deed. Ilia Prus- sian lies there In the ditch, kicking con- vulsively, face downward. As for him. he will assuredly tell no tales! i \Come. git up! Hi\ And the gray, who seentm her stable front afar. etarts off at a gallop. , They have all been pumhed and locked Into the church like a flock of sheep. There they are, sitting in grouper in the nave. some very pale, others very red, all silent, their throats ',Irt railed by fright. A crude white light falls frorn the windows of unstained glass and throws large pale squares on the blue peasants' frocks or Illumines piti- lessly some face on which abject fear may be read in the drawn mouth and pinched nostrils. Faint heavy odors of autumnal foliage come from the neighboring cemetery and one hears the chirping of the spar- rows disputing among themselves amidst the gravestones. The night before, a Prussian patrol had found, near the Green -Cross, the body of a murdered hussard. It is nec- essary to make an example. And so. since dawn, a battalion of chasseurs have invaded the village, and, by order of the commanding ()Meer, have im- prieoned within the church walls every able-bodied man in he community. The morning—until the stroke of noon— ha e been given them t , point out, the guilty one, or to mak, a personal con - tu -salon; that hour panned, one of die men will be picked out at random. and the village turned down. And it is now 11:30 o'clock. Oh! If they only knew the murderer— the flefifieFln - --t he bandit—who has 'brought all this upon them, e hile they were vegetating aiging tranquilly In the midat of the ruin. of their country; how gladly and quickly would they, good people denounce hint' if neceasary they would wreak vengeance upon him with their own hands. But they do not know - him; and meantime, the minutes hurry on. and none dare take the initiative. none 'assume the respentebility of sing- ling out the criminal. He who could solve their perplexities, who might cry: \I am the murderer, the aeansaln, the bandit!\—he. Jean Pego.

Then hastily, hurriedly, with the fev- erish eagerness of people who dread death, everyone repeats it Jean Pe- golan, the Eyvettes fariner, draws a long breath. The name la not It Is that of a or devil, half-wood- cuttee, hulf poacher, a Red Republican, who voted a \nay\ at the last elec- tions. He has a sick wife and three little children, the eldest of whom can but barely walk, and these will be lett with- out bread by his death. hiut that can not be helped. Peehaps the fellow did not do the deed. But then he was quite capable of doing it. Besides, he is only a poor wretch, while they are all com- fortable farmers, in easy circumstance». Justice above all things. In vain does the poor wretch protest lila innocenee. The evening before he was ailing- a wrench he got in felling a tree. He had been on his bed, without stirring, all day. They could make in- quiries. They would see that he had not been out of his house. All in vain does he throw himself at their feet, his voice choked with anguish and fear. All in vain does he invoke their pity. What is to become uf his children if he is to die? His wife will never equal the task of providing for them. No one answers. Pegolan, in his cor- ner, sits in cold perspiration, fearing some change in opinion, some sudden relenting. But the others are only too happy to have come to some conclusion. They ask hut one thing now, to be speedily rid of this man who moans before them, tearing his hair, and re- proaching them for their ferocious egotism, their monstrous cruelty. The door is thrown wide open, and beyond it rises a forest of bayonets till- ing the small square, and nearer to the threshold the group of men charged with the execution have gathered, and the fatal instrument of death shines again in the warm white light of the moon. And 12 o'clock strikes. There is a cry broken by a detona- tion, and the smoke clearing away the body of the woodcutter and poacher Is seen lying on the steps of the church, and stiffening there, while one by one those men pass out beside it, the blood staining the souls of their feet. And the Prussian officers, with look of speechless contempt, turn away revolt- ed. Jean Pegolan has gained his own abode once more. Heavens! But It is pleasant to be safe at horn,' again after such an adventure!

An Instance Showing That the Birds Have It for Their Kind. \While walking along the street In the residence portion of the city last summer,\ says Dr. H. D. Osterman of Chicago, \1 witnessed an incident that illustrated the sympathetic na- ture of birds. As I was walking along [ noticed a little sparrow fluttering on the ground and apparently unable to rise. 1 stopped and was on the point of going to it to ascertain if pos- sible the cause of its trouble, when all at once 1 noticed two full grown sparrows fly down from a neighboring tree and alight on the ground . near by. I watched with a good deal of Interest to see what they would do. Tht old birds hopped around a min- ute or two and then one of them picked up a little bare twig about three inches long. The old bird took hold of one end of the stick with his beak, while its companion to,ik hold of the other end in the same manner. They then approached the youtig bird. that still fluttered helplessly on the ground, and it ec.ught hold of the middle of the stick with its beak. The old birds then flew up to a tree, carrying the young bird hanging to the stick between them to a place of safety.\ Tobacco Destroys Vitality.
