He Rcemed to be •koot tlw medium height, wai clean Bbaves, asi! bad a skin as yellow n« eM tMrcbment. But tbe peculiar tUkg about blni wna, no matter thv kind ot day—DO uiatter whether llie ¦un atreamed down on him or the aky rtlMd tear*—he luxmriiibly took oU Ma bat wben he entered the Ilttle i^ar- dn, ainck a ipade lu tbe ground, nud kai^ tbe bat on the top of the ipade.
bla cardcnlng waa very peculior, for h« dug up the iame ,|)atch erery day, ¦Itbooffb he knew that the dog would tiainple It down before night. Tliere wata taw flowera or ihrubi In tbe gnr- Uen, and all tbe way round It the dog kad milde a narrow track.

Perhnps It waa bia.. yellow akin, iierhapi Ida Bolaeleaa tnovementi frigbteued me, bni wben I looked up nnd found him ¦tealtbiljr regarding me (like the •adent mariner, be had a glltterlni; aye), aomething unpleainut seemed to pnrrade my aplne nnd aend a cold •kiTcr down It. One day hc dropped a Mg handful o( lalt ou the bnok of my neck and anxloualy peered over tbe -top o( the feuce to tee nbat would happen to me.
Aa I wiped away the lalt (some of It had fallen below my collar and nade me amart coqalderably) It >ud- denly occurred to me tbnt my coren- trle neighbor waa an old aclentlfle gen- tlemiin wbo bad nottixd the way I treated aingi lu my coaraer momenti, when the lust for ilaughter boiled within my velna. lie wanted to ae* wbetber I ihould nluo diaHolvp, nnd leave "not a wrark behind." It arrmed to me, however, that even ttiouKli tlio man over the fence waa aeiuated by a (eellng of HclvntiHr rcaenreli. he might Have gone througb tlie fornuillty of aaking my iiernilialon before hc tried hla experiment. Twice that uiorulni; I noticed him look furtively uver tlie (ence In evident dlaap|iolntmeiit that I waa atill nble'to continue my work. ¦When I aald good day to hlm. just to ¦how that I bore no malice, be bobbed gnUtlly dowu nud eoutluued dlggluir. To make frlendi with lilni, nnd tu In¬ duce him to refrain from further ex¬ periment! on Ihe back of my nerk. I preaented Ihe old gentleman with a handful of China nater plants; n-bere- npott he went Into the bouse, returned With a plate ot bread nnd butter, and ¦wallowed the planti with creat gii»to.
I waa' sn dumbfounded by tbis ex traordlnary proeppdluE tbat I Hiiind at hlm with ail my iuIkIiI- I'erbaps an emetic inlgbt lavu lilui; but wben I ¦nggcated It. he waved hlH baud and contlnned to ent tbe lunt planl.
No one bad leen me give bim tbe planti. 10 1 lui|icd tbat the coroner would bring iu a vague verdict. Ijiter on In Ibe day. ns I looked out of tho window, 1 saw tbat be bad another handful of s.ilt and nais evidently ly Ing In wait fur nir.
But ai lime went on my repunnanee to the old mau over Ibe feme gradu¬ ally dimlniihed, aud nhen I bad untb lag better to do ! nmuscd myself liy putting my bat on a itlek aud ninvuig It gently alung a little almve tbe fence. Then tbe old geutlemun wuuld stalk It wllb a handful of aait. aud chuekle wllb aatlsfartluu as he routinncd to dig up tbe track made by tbe dug's In¬ defatigable fret.
One morning, buwever. I was amazed at arelog ilie uld mau pushed hastily tbrougb Ihn Kreueb window lending to bla garden, lie landed ou the grnvel patb lu a lomewbnt bewildered fashluu and remained there nntll be wns fol¬ lowed ty a sandy Imlrcd young mnn. wbo aat down ou the uue gnideu chair and began lo flll a very big pliH>.

Theold gentleman Immediately with¬ drew bll hand from ihe spade, and. taklag hold of lbo dour handle, bcgae to ahak* It geutly.
"Drop it!" said tbp mnn wiib tlie pipe, after the old geutleiuan bad .¦haKen tke door for five niiuutes.
Tbe old man's haud fell to bla side. Be looked pait the mau with ilie |iipe. a derre trouble In bis starlug eyes. He tirai plainly trying to remember some¬ tbing. A gleam of bopi sbonr in his eyea fOr the moment, titen sluwly fad¬ ed away again: he took bold ut Ihc door handle and rattUtJiU gvnily

"Are you the other keep—?" he be¬ gan, tben recognlaeil Ue with a gasp of relief.
"Show me Into that room looking Into the garden," I commnnded per¬ emptorily, "and don't lose any time abont It either."
I waa not very ccmfortable. Suppose the old man got hold of the ipadc and made a ruih nt me? But I had trou¬ bled myielf somewhat needleisly. When he aaw me, be produced a hand¬ ful of aait from his pocket and t>cgau to look paat the window rg If tempting me to come nenr bim.

I returned to my own house, nnd worked steadily nil dny In order to escape the old ninn'i glassy stare. At dusk be itlll stood, bis hand on Ihe lock bf tbe door, furth-cly regarding bis keeper. Suddenly there was a rat¬ tle of wheels on the gravel path before thp bouip.

At present the flshlng apparatus is lim¬ ited to a long pole for spearing aud a water glnss. If the lamps prove suc¬ cessful, greater depths may be reached and larger nnd finer sponges secured.

The op.-nlng of a tract of land sLxty miles fi,,uare in Oklahoma, wbieb will occur some time during the coming summer, will be attended by the last great struggle for free homes in Amer Ica: for, while tbe tiovcruuieut still owns tunny inillions neres of land.i nvailnble for settlement under the liomesiead net. praeilially nil the remalulng publie domain luust bo subjected to Irrigation or drainage before It will yield a profltable return to the cultivators. This flnnl exhaustion of the lands to be had for the nsking. and for which a man had but to put forlh a claim in order to assure himself a comfortable livelihood during tbe balance of bis days, lends new urgency and Impor¬ tance to the subject of irrigation, and a score of plans to reclaim arid Inuds. of varying magnitude and merit, are now seeking favorable recognition from Congress. Though It is doubtful If Ihe present Congress will vote money for the furtheranee of nny of these schemes, their advocates nre doing an excellent work In preparing public opinion for the ailoptlou. at no distant day, of tho principle of tho re¬ clamation of arid land by the Cienernl Oovemment.
Meantime, nnd without walling for old from Washington, an extensive scheme of Irrigation bns been under- tnken in Kansas, which presents some unusual feaiures. nnd which, if suc¬ cessful, will, by giving them tho ben¬ eflt of n large supply of water, make several couniies in the eeutrnl part of that State practleally Independent of the rainfall. The Chpyeune Ilot toms. In Barton Connt.v. level ns a floor and girt by a rim of uplands, mark the location of a prehistoric lake thirteen miles long and frora three to eight miles wldp. This basin lias been connected by nicnns of a huge dlteh with tbe Arkansas lllver, ten miles nway. Tiie Arkansas during ten months of tbe .vear Is a river In name only, but Ibe other two months It Is a raging tor¬ rent half a mile In width- This season of flood Is 10 be utilized lo store the Cheyenne Bottoms with water, and there will be ditches radiating from tho nrtlflclnl lake thus ereated stiffl clout to irrigate .111 of Rarlon Couniy nnd some of the surrounding I'luds. It Is hoped iu tbis way to release from tbo llir.^at of uncertain rainfall oiii' of the richest sections of Kansas, 'iiio only element of uuierlainly iu tbe veutui-i! Js fear as to w-Uetber tlie water will stay lu the lake until It Is needed for use. Should this fear prove to be unfounded, the biisius of olber prehistoric lakes, of which theie are a number on the Knnsas plains, wlil be utilized for like purpose, and a cheap nnd adpqunlc stornge system piovided for IhoHsands of farmcrs.
Wldely dlffereul In clinraeter. but having the same end in view, is tbe systeiu of canals lately Ket afoot lu the Atchafalaya region, Louisiana, by which It Is hoped to reclaim nearly a million acres uf exeept ionally. f•.•rllle Innd. Thp district eoncerued In the present plan, bounded on overy side by rivers and bnyous. forms a part of the swamp Innds given lo tbe Slale of Louisiana by the (Ieneral (iovernnienl hnlf a cenlury ago. All or nearly all of It lies below the high-water level uf the streams which surround It. and Is tberefure subject to periodical over¬ flow. The (Iistrict levee board lu ¦whose Jurisdiction It lies proposes by the construction of a eonipreheiisive system of eauiils. dams nud puiiipiin; statious to drain the land and render It avnlluble for agriculture, .\ctive op eratlous are now In progress, nud. should they serve their purpose, will. witbout donbt. be duplicated by the other levee boards uf I-onlsiann. thus assuring Ihe ultimate reclamation of some millions of neres of overflowed alluvial land worth from $50 tu JlOd nn acre.
The : lluvial lands of the Mississippi closely resemble those of the Nile. and. under favoring conditions, can lie made to J Ield as manifold returns tn those who till tbem.
