LOTTIE WALKED.
Among my mnsio pnpils Lottio
Walker, pretty and blond, occupied.
' tho (irst rank, botb in talont and in
telligence. When I bogan to givo lessons at
tho academy and when ' each of my
pupils was trying to mako herself
ngrooablo to nio, she had presorvcil
a silent nnd serious demeanor nnd
! remained in Ibo background, nnd
only at intervals I surprised her eyes
' nnnarontly ""watching mo with a
closor interest. Sho bad nover given
me a flower, and yot I had to confess
to: mysolf fjejainst my will that I
would havo cheerfully exohangod my
entire floral collection for even a
leaf from her. Sho soomed to regain
her wonted animation only wheu tho
lesson was in progross. Sho was se
rious and assiduous in her studies,
nnd often when latohi the evening I
bnpponed to enter one of the lesson
rooms I found her still hard at work
studying hor musio at the piano. On
such occasions! she would turn hor
bead toward mo with a modest smile
nnd oontinuo practicing without in
terruption, i .
One Saturday, tbo wookly holiday
of tho school, Iontored tho hall after
n' sliort stroll. 1 met hor, smiling
nnd radiant, in n faultless, and fash
ionable summer toilet, leaning affec
tionately upon tbo arm of n young,
gallant who was court net ins her to

For tho first timo I realized tho
fnll scopo of tljo dangerous jwission

ntter dejection I oponed tho parlor
door and enterod tho room to take a
farewell look at bor fronv the .seclu

irrespjutefyn!the jioinTTof stopping
irtlo the carriagb.'anfl with a hastily
nttorod remark to her esoort run
back into tho honso. as if sho bad
forgotton something. A moment
later sho thrust, ber fnco in at tho
door with a look of anxiety, and soo
iiig me ynncel (roipkly.
"Yon arb not' illj 'sir?" sho asked.
"I believe not, " I replied, touched
by her strange conduct "May I in

, " nover saw yio look sopalo, nnd
my reason for coming back was to

flgved band. "I shall be alisont for

(kioo tbo window behind wbieh

fj.en tbo carriago passed out of sight.
Utterly rointlh, I wont to my
room in tho principal's honso, and
leaning my head on my folded arms
abandoned myself, to a sucoosxion of
gloomy rettectkmi. A knock at tho
dour recalled mo to my mrvtu. It

in tho sticcoss of sdmo future nndir-

tor wretobodneKS took possession of
mo, and I would havo sobbed had
not shame restrained mo, I felt that
it was useless to fight tbo inovita
bio, nnd that my only recourse was
to say farewell. So dotonHncd, I
leaned back and closed my eyes. In
this condition Lottie's image invol
untarily roso before my vision, and
finally abandoning1 mysolf to my
haunting thoughts my mind soon
lost itself inn grateful contempla
tion of her beauty. Clearly I recalled
tho stoady, unfathomablo look with
wbioh sho had studied my faco. 1
imagined that sho returned my love ;
that I might clasp her in my nrms
nnd strain 'bor to my heart
"Fooll" said a voico within mo,
nnd I loapod to my feet Tho svm
was sinking, and a cool broczo fanned
my forehead. I resolved to try the
tranquilizing inflnenco of a long
walk. The surroundings offered so
many points of interest whioli I bad
hitherto observed only at n distance.
I notified the principal by a colored
servant that I would not return to
supper and started on my journey
' to rid ms'self of tho somber thoughts
that wcro haunting mo.
She was duo for thq first lesson
Monday morning. If sho did not re
port, I could n void meeting her for
several days, nnd yet every senti
ment opposed itsolf to this deliberate
onlculnlion, and a delicious longiny
thrilled every fibor of my being as 1
thought sho might appear before mo
at any moment. But sho dhl not
come, and m vam I looked lor her
among tho other 'pupils the ne.tt
morning after breakfast.
At tho stroke of 8, I cntorod tho
schoolroom, and , simultaneously a
door opposiro loading into tho in
terior of tho building was pushed
open, end I found , mysolf faco to
faco with Miss Walker, looking ns
bright and rosy as tho now morning
without..
"I should not havo returned qnite
so soon, Mr Wnlters, "she said, with
a siiiilo that nearly, drove tjio blood
.out of my heart, "had I not been
'nnxloris to Inko my singing .lesson.

Sho laid a! magnolia,.' whito ns

hot in a long time boon favored with
such on offering. :
I ronlizod'thatescnpo was hnposni

emotions thnt again.nssailcd me, but
I wns keenly sensible of ono thing
thnt I must save my honor at any
sncrifJoo. i -
"Miss Wnlkcr," I said, looking at
her wiHi nn nssurnnco that cost mo
a trnly lioroie effort, yet nnablo to
withdraw my gaze from her refinod
nnd beautiful fenturos, "1 am sure
you do not realize what , strange in

Sho regarded me with a strango
look. ' .-
"Supposo X- .should bring you a
flower when you aro in your now
, position, would yon still Iki ill?"
( "Miss WalKor, ' I said, collecting
all my strength, "if 1 have mudo
myself intelligiblo I beg ya to exor
oiso a littlo mercy. J hnvo endeavor
ed to act liko an honorable man, nnd
all I ask is nn honorablo defeat "
"And, pray, U defeat so bitter?"
sho said faintly. When I again raised
my-eyes to herjnee, I observeil an
expression of tender carnesTncssr
and hor largo dreamy eyes were ob
serving mo in a manner that stmt a
norvoua thrill of commingled Joy
and despair through my being. j
"Do yon wish to compel mo to
make a confession?" I oskod. "1
wonld havo preferred to go without

"Ono moment, Mr. Walters," sho
said, looking, steadily at me. " In

voice, seizing ber too willing bands

to my happiness, nnd shout right
out or yield to the feeling of inse
curity which seemed to prophesy
that, piy good fortuno would soon
enough' disappear in air and leave

Afternoon came, and with every
step on tbo stairway to my room my
heart boat tnmultuoasly, nnd I
nerved myself to faco tbo storm that
wns approaching. But evening came,
tho sup)cr bell rang, and I still lay
thoro in jwunful susponso. At last
anothor ptep sounded on the stair,
and tbo door opened. It proved to
bo only the servant girl with my
tea, nnd 1 was in the act of easting
myself with anj nir of indifference
again on my couch when I observed
a young darky wormina himself
through tho half open door behind
tbo girl, cast' nn intelligent look at
mo nnd then draw a slipof white
paper from tho lining of hiH bat
"From Missy Walkor, sab," , ho
said, handing it to mo with a com

Tho darky said "All right," and

As soon ns the door closed I toro
open tho envalojM.
"Dear Charles," it said. I could

it flashed npon mo wbnt if this let

then read it again, word for worti
My breast s-'t-med to re-echo with
tho sounds of a triumphant wedding
march, and I premtod Lottie's hand
writing to niy lijMi until the tapping
of tbo impatient darky's band on
tbo door toro mo from my silent

Even bbforo tho train bad come to a

of ft veilod figure, who threw botb

by a light wagon containing two

"Not mo, sah," ho said, laughing.
"Ef dey don't miss Miss Lottio no

Tho train wns starting. I leaped
aboard nnd hasteued to bor seat

the gray light of breaking day. Lot

extended both hands, but winding
my nrm nbout bor waist I gently
forced ber back into ber scat, and
thus wo passed, lip to lip, a moment
of ecstasy such ns mortala expe
rience onco in a lifetime
Wo reached Cincinnati nnd wero
married. Our first wedded kiss ox
chnngod, wo sat down together nnd
wrote to Mr. Walker. I do not know
what Lottio wrote. It seemed an
net of ordinary delicacy on my part
to inclose her letter, unread, with
mine, and hor face told nio that sho
was grateful for it. As for' mo, I
oponed my boart froely to tho man
in whoao benevolent countenance I
hnd reposed tho deepest confidonoo
from our earliest meeting. I describ
ed the struggle with mysolf nt tho
academy, told him I should havo lie
taken mysolf forovor from tho neigh
borhood if our hearts bad not simul
taneously botrayod us and rendered
separation inipossiblo, but I added
that wo wcro resigned to bis just in
dignation; that I hnd no favor to
ask Bavo his generous pardon, and
that, this obtained, I should apply
my brain and muselo to the ono en
deavor of making his daughter's
self elected lot nn ondurably happy
nnd agreoabio one. 1 - ., ...
The lotjteis woro mailed, biit wo
wcro destined to w-n1t a long timo
for a reply. , Lottio opposed my form
ing any plans for the future until
wo had news. 'Klib was sure that her
father wonld write, bnt ho noodod
time, sho thonght, to roach nn un
derstanding with himself. Finally,
after waiting two weeks, I saWmy
name in tho advertised lotter list
Who hut LotMo's father could possi

I took tho letter from thq hands of
tho dolivery clerk with eager inter

characteristic hand, and tho post
mark of my 1.1 fo placo of rosidonoo.
With a sigh I thrust, it into my
pocket and hastened back to tho ho
tel, whoro wooould read it together.
Her face tnmed pale as I bold the
letter out to her. . She seemed to
watch my faco for soma telltale evi
dence, bui I showed her tbo un
broken onvolopo. Then sitting down
I drew her njion my kneo, and so,
prepared for tho worst, deliberately

The convention 'of the North Car
olina Tress met jn "'Greensboro last
' . .... ., . . ;
wck iiiki iiaa a most enjoyiUiii
time, said to be the 'most cnjtfyablo
that has ever been held durinj; the
existehee of tho Assoeiatiiin. In a
parenthesis' wc niti'st tib hlhnml to
say that is e. ror.' The year' of tlie
nieeiing at uoiusnoro' m loy,, avc
think it was, when" the cim vention
nfler its adjournment fit GoMshorp,
accepted' aii' invitation tf) Glen Al
pine Springs,' was the' most delight
ful of all in the history of the Press
Convention. That, including the
delay ut Turkey Tail station w.w
tho climax of earthly happiness.
Perhaps tho present members of the
gang were then babies in arms, f hut
that meeting was the best : of nil
ine nood nt JJeautort was a sorrow
that changed the pin-pose of tin;
Convention, but disastrous as it
was, it Was a breeder of joy out of
sorrow. Out of it came the happi
ness of Glen Aljiinc nnd out of the
accident and delay nt Turkey Tail
came the joy of .that glorious and
ncver-to-bc-forgottcn night "; Mc
Diarniid, who yet lives, thank the
good Iord, was in full feather, nnd
the silver rattles of his laugh echoed
through 'tho darkness ns a bugle
call to mirth. Harrell, who was
emphatically a dully, was provoked
to wit by tho magnetic ripple of
Mc's unrivaled laughter, whoso rcN
serve fund furnished a supply of
laughter for his own and others
wit and humor. ' We had : thought
we were a lucky man wheii we iound
a soft cushion in an open head bar
rel of wheat, Which was pleasant
enough, but ns we slept nnd snored
wo sank down in the yielding w heat
until our nose nnd our toes were
brought in contact, 'and then we en
tered on a stentorian burst' of "nasuJ
nnd laryngean melody that crtdaw-i
gered tho rafters and shingles on the
roof nnd completely threw Mr'
side shoiv in the shade and made
pretty Miss Mock, of Salisbury, .. to
whom we hnd offered our hand and
heart five several timo at Gloni Al
pine, faint from pure exhaustion
from laughter. We would have
died nn inglorious death in that
wheat barrel, drowned as it were in
a band of cereal, had not old Mc,
kind, dear old soul, stopped laugh
ing long enough to dig tw out of
that barrel of wheat which oar per-;
spiration wns rapidly converting into
fltarcn, oy putting and hauling sJ
out by our nose and tow, laughing
all the while as he, strango to say,
had hcver laughed before. God
