'rVThe power of a press correspond- et)t Is a great one and his responsibil ity Is correspondingly heavy. The great majority are accurate. Impar tial and conservative, and their state ment can be accepted as being as near to the truth aa any which can be obtained. The unscrupulous cor respondent Is a dangerous man. for 'h la liable to send broadcast over 'lh land wholly unfounded state ments to the prejudice and hurt of business Interests and of entire mt tio'ns of the country.

", .-. f ?j - But SUa is really the end aftd not the beginning of the story, ' The story started whea old Pr. Hightower first came to .the neighborhood with hi wife, a steam engine and aundry oth4 er properties. He bad been a police man in New York city; n was an osteopath, a mesmerist, a machinist, and. above all, a spiritualist, wnen, he died the chief legacy he left tola, wife was a firm belief In splritual- Loner before she went Insane, how ever, there was a certain rabbit hat looa up unuer ner cnu. eiayou there so long unmolested that he grew very tame, and when the good old lady went out to scatter dough to her chickens, that rabbit would just as soon as not come over the yard and mingle and mix with them, and he dearly loved to bask in the open. H grew so bold that he attracted the attention of the negroes. The more they observed him the more surely they believed that he was the old doctor. He had a sort of. look of proprietorship to him, and then all kind, of superstitions clustered about the place. " Jim - Johnson, the best marksman for mile around, took a shot at that rabbit one day, at a distance and while the rabbit was running, and missed him. But Pres Wheeler, a one-eyed negro boy, saw the shot aqd the miss, and he went on up to Spring Branch church, where the Aukus' meetin' was In progress, and told the people that Jim Johnson had shot at the Old Doctor and missed him. It waa not long before the story went that Jim had stood within ten steps of the rabbit, where he sat basking and wobbling his nose, and had shot his whole supply of cart ridges at him; that there were no signs of bullet marks on the ground, and that the rabbit never budged There was, therefore, no longer any doubt that that hare was the Old Doceor. When Mrs. Hightower went In sane, she put on the white sat In dress she had been married In and sat in her parlor, entertaining the friends of her youth. That night stie thought herself due at a ball In the city. She set out, escorted by ghosts, to meet the engagement, and wajed all night long through bogs and , ..11,,. ..e. she declared the next day were as big as blue birds, indeed, they were all galll nlppers; the ordinary mosquito Jld not obtain that August. They were so fierce hold your breath, but It's true! that they would bite you through the eye-holes of your shoes. Of course the neighborhood could not risk any more night-wandering by the good old lady and four of US boys volunteered to keep watch over the premises the following night and prevent her second escape. A long Juniper telephone pole had been dropped by a wagoner In front of the house, on the opposite side of the road and parallel with it. On that pole we sat. The moon was fair and the odors of the summer night sweet, but the mosquitoes were Intolerable. We went down to the cotton-shed of the nearest dweller and stole a great many unwashed guano sacks and a cotton-sheet apiece, and " brought them back to the log, wrapped our selves In the sheets, put the guano sacks on fire, and sat In the smoke. It was the most horrible smell that eVIr TO&e Dut t prevented the mo qultoes. The trouble was that we soon burnt all the sacks and had to j rely entirely upon the sheets.

To see a , w hite, ghost-like figure move about ' that tfront room, penetrated as it was by moonlight, silent, and. to know that there was a craxy woman, with that In her eyes which no man could translate, produced a feeling foreign I to ordinary cowardice.

It was Just a little too much for his nerves. Tou are amused at Calk, but we sworn at him, and were al most as much afraid of him as of the widow herself. Anyhow, we got back on the tele phone pole, wrapped our sheets well atxiut us. and watched. I don't know what we should have done if Mrs. Illghtower had sallliul from the house: I'm afraid we should have run like turkeys Hut she slept well and we sat silent until about two o'clock, when we heard a footfall on the path up ahead and a certain cough, "Ahem, hem!" That's old Silas Wall." said every body. Vrap your sheets close," said a ivati her. "and don't move and don't say anything. Let's see what Hllaa w ill do " The four of us deployed ourselves at eiiial distances along the log, look ed straight to the front and waited. did Wins came humping along, covered with a brush heap of chairs. on bis way home down to Mahs jeddy's place. It will always be a mystery how he msnaged to attach " "ny of them. He waa not look ing toward ine log, uui lowaru ine house. Nobody knew better than he that the widow was Insane and that the Old Doctor waa camping under the crib. He softened his footfalls the nearer he came, until it got to be a regular creep, stealthy and nervous snd alert. Not before he got op posite the log did he look round. He halted, cut his eye from end to end, and bowed. "Good ebenln' ", said he, doubt fully. Not a word: not a motion: four shrouded figures In the haunted moonlight. That, you know, waa the nnndexvnus of sperlts. "Wuff!" said HIIbs. Thn way he shook those chairs off him waa explosive. He let them fall where they would. He waa old and stiff In hla Joints, but hla running wonld have put Pheldlppldea to shame. He took It on. He struck only once a bridge about ten feet wide. "Whumpt" two hundred yards down Ihe road. If the Old Doctor, that rabbit, had got In the road ahead of him, h would have given a local color to the old yarn by kicking the rabbit out of ihe way and exclaims Ing, "If you can't run no faster, git out er d way en let a man run wut kin runi" ' R That I how It happened that, when the widow was taken away to the asylum and the house and IU furni ture were left atone, there needed tin Jock and keys and no other guard than that rabbit, lie may now . be dead or alive; 2 know not: but hi 111 awt I awtere, Hi wlU fc so Cot many year.
