THE cay f ~¢ EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C. 17, 1887-DOUBLE SHEET MY SARATOGA WIDOW. From Harper's Weekly.

But that I dia have the best right, and that any set of men not utterly perverse would have admitted it, no one whoreads Iny story will dispute. It was about 7 o'clock one morning. I had found myself awake at a little past daylight and unable toget another wink. I remember distinctly that the day was lovely, that the air was full of the perfume of grasses and flowers. The streets were nearly deserted. The ten thousand guests of the hotels—including three individuals whom I then called trieuds—were still wrapped in slumber. I had walked at least a mile, and was in a locality sparsely settied, when I heard a scream.

Beardsley would meet Kimball without tion, and Kimball would encounter Fisher as though he Were a total stranger. I rose early every morning and stroffd out by the cottage where I had lett the widow, but finding that my steps were dogged by the others, I took care not to do anything which should convey to their minds the slightest information. She seemed to have given up her early Walks, as I never saw heron these occasions. I took a doiéful pleasure in turning suddenly and Tetracing my steps after passing corners, for 1 Was Sure to Stumble upon my three rivals, scattered along the Way, and cach engaged in adimtring the horizon as I appeared.

In the evenings I walked up and down the long piazzas of the Grand Union, with my three former associates straggling In my rear, Dut there were no signs of my charmet One day, wen I had become almost desperate, I saw her out driving with the elderiy lady.

T accompanied ber to her des- tnatton—a large white cottage, which vine- embowered, in the center of a green lawn bordered with high shrubbery. She had quite recovered her equanimity by this time, and parted from me with additional thanks, uttered with delightful unconstraint. She wasn’t so deeply in love as I was, At least 1 don’t think she was at that time. My three friends at the hotel—soon to be changed into a trio of enemles—received me bols- terously. “What the blazes took you out-of-doors at such an hour of the night?” ered Fisher. “By gad, he’s pale asa ghosti” chimed in Kim. b iis Saratoga water Is too much fonphis delicate constitution,” interjected Beardsley. “Oh, shut w said I, throwing the expression pell-meli at the whoie party.

Atlast I reached a sage conelusion, As fate had so generously thrown me into the path of ‘the beautiful widow, fate would eventually lead me to the consummation of my happiness. I left ‘the issue With my stars, and went down to lunch with a Ugbt heart and an immense appetite. Fisher remarked that Liooked better than I did in the m¢ ‘Beardsley and Kimball with him.

As we turned Into Congress Park 1 saw to my consternation that she was there, and coming directly toward us She was ac- com an elderly lady. "What should I dot My thoughts traveled rapidly. I felt that Thad no right to presume on my haphazard ac- quaintance of the morning, and if I bad been easy on that score I lacked ‘the morai courage to face the volley of raillery which I might expect from my companious.

I felt quite confident that should win. Even if Idid not, my lucky stars would wateh over me—those stars Which had so clearly foreshadowed my fate in this very matter. ‘So I consented to a conference, and Fisher went to find Beardsiey and Kimball. ‘They were not far off—the skulkers! they never were during those days—and they came sidling ong, looking disagreeable enough, I thought. Isher did taost of the talking, and ‘after several ideas had been proposed and rejected we agreed on this: We would goin a body to the first train which came the next morning, present our case tothe first gentleman who alighted from the rear Pullman car, and abide by his dectston. How the others bore it Ido not know, but I did not close my eyes that night. My heart was in a flutter When the train caine thundering tuto the station. We “spotted” our man, a bright-looking gentleman about twenty-six or twenty-seven Years of age, who looked surprised (as well he might) when’ we bore down upon him and pre- ferred our Singular request. We gave him no par- Uculars at the time except that there was a lady in the case, but begged him to assign an early hour to take evidence. To our great satisfaction he appointed 11 o'clock on the same morning, and as | he was to stay at our hotel, we all drove up to- gether, At 1i we gathered in a private drawing lots to see witch should speak first, told Our several stories, Our arbitrator, Whose bame turned out to be Mr. Sawyer, Went at bis task with great deliberation, making’ copious notes as the Yestimony proceeded. He seemed to take especlal interest In each description of the handsome widow, interjecting such phrases, “About What age sllowd you say?” “kyes gray or hazel?” “plump, and fair height, en?” ‘f reealled these things afterward with a pang. When my turn came I detailed my adventure With the robber—something hitherto entirely un- Known to the others. 1 could see thelr envy at what must prove a strong point in my favor. And when Sawyer sald, with emphasis, “The wretch! I wish I could have got one blow at bun,”1 felt certain he Would adinit that I had a fair'title to precedence. “Well, gentlemen,” said the arbitrator, as he folded up Lis papers, “It will take mea few days todecide. In the mean time I ought to see the lady, and find out, if can do so without arousing her Suspicions, Whether she has a preference alreaay formed.” “But I say,” struck in Beardsley, “you must be fair, you Know. Don’t step tn and cut out the lov of us Deore We gel a chance to say a Word in our own behalf.” “I give you my wore of honor,” replied Mr. Saw- Jer, impressively, “that I shall’ do nothing unbe- coming a gentleman or an impartial judge.” ‘His Wordor honor! But I anticipate, AS we waiked out upon the piazza Fisher grasped Sawyer's arin and showed him the widow, Who Was Walking on the opposite side of the street With her usual companion. Sawyer observed her carefully, and remarking that 1t would not be easy to mistake her, lett us abd went to bis room, While we were awaiting the decision which migat one of us supremely happy and the Otuers inconceivably miserable, we gradually grew tobe better Iriends. But though we admit- led that the extent of our estrangement had been uncalled for, we could not immediately resume our old cheerfulness. ‘The suspense was too great for that, ‘This Sawyer was a lively fellow. We found within twenty-four hours that he had succeeded tn getting an introduction to tHe youthful widow, and a day later we caugut him taking a lunch ta company With her and tue elderly fetnaie. ‘There Was nothing inherenuy wrong in this precipita- ton, but I think we ail felt one way about it. ‘The next evening he walked with her for an hour, and the following morning be went with her for Water to the Hathorn spring.

Several days passed, during ghich we saw him With the widow and her chapSron quite too frequently. ‘Then weheld a council of war, and declared ourselves insulted. “Let us seek him out, ail of us r,” sald Beardsley, “and demand an explanation.” ‘The motion passed by 4 Unautmous vote.
