Romance of a
Back Yard
By DWIGHT NORWOOD
One morning, going to my window,
which U la the rear of the house and
Jboka oat on the back windows of
houses on another street, I saw a tiny
white handkerchief pinned to the win
dow alii. The same afternoon, going
to my room, 1 was about to open the
blinds when I saw through the slats a
pretty girl kiss her hand to some one
1b the house adjoining my domicile.
She at once disappeared, but it was
evident that a flirtation, perhaps one
that had developed into an affair of
the heart, was In progross.
After this I saw many a signal in
the window opposite which I would
probably not hare recognised as such
had I not seen the throwing of the
kiss. My next door neighbor, of course,
I could not see, but I had noticed a
good looking young man going and com
ing, and I presumed that he was the
fortunate possessor of the young lady's
faror.
I was one afternoon sitting at my
window, with the blinds closed, when
through a crack between the slats I
saw a pantomime between the lovere.
The girl looked down into ber back
yerd and shook ber head. After she
had left ber window I looked down
into bis back yard myself. It was in
closed in a high brick wall topped
with broken glass. I was not long in
deciphering the pantomime. The girl
had put a Teto on her lover's under
taking to effect an entrance to her
premises over the wall.
About a week after this X saw a ne
gro bring a barrel Into the back yard
through a rear basement door. He
set it down very carefully and turned
to go away. He had taken but a few
steps when he turned, went back to
the barrel and busied himself examin
ing the bead, which I could see was
not fastened in the usual way. While
he was doing this his lips moved.
Moreover, I saw something passed
from the barrel to his band. Present
ly he went away again and this time
disappeared through the basement
door.
I was reading n love story without
words, or, rather, was seeing ono en
acted, not on the stage, but in real Ufa
It struck me that something would oc
cur In the premises on the other side
of the wall. Should I be mean enough
t» spy with a view to satisfying my
curiosity? Would It be mean to enjoy
what I could of a drama In real life?
The barrel was deposited shortly be
fore my dinner hour, which was 6
o'clock. After dinner darkness had
fallen. Without turning on my lights
I took a seat at the window. The
•:p«ce between my home and the
houses In the rear of It was dimly tIb
ibW from the lights of the houses
whining upon tt I couH barely discern
the barrel standing where It had been
pUeed. Not caring to reveal myself by
Sighting my room, I concluded to while
away the time In the darkness by
taoottng. I had consumed half a dozen
cigarette* and was thinking that If
the» was any one in the bairel he
must b« pretty well cramped when
Bomettilng rose out of Its top end.
There >was a pause"; then something
larger followed. Curiosity sharpened
my eyes, and I saw a bulk that looked
!lke a man's figure get out of the barrel.
t*k® It up and proceed with It to a cor
ner In the wall, where he was hidden
from me. I fancied he was using the
barrel for concealment from the oppo
ette direction.
"Tbat's the last of hlin for me," I
remarked, -'till the lights are put out"
Nevertheless I was too Interested to
leave my post I smoked till I fell
asleep. When I awoke it was 11
o'clock, aad there was but one light in
the honse visible to me, and that was
•- " ——1* K^lna r\f mv Mforv.
As I looted It wns turned off.
I was now thoroughly awake and be
lieved that I had no great time to wait
to see something more. I was right
Not long after the Inst light was turned
■off I saw the space occupied by the
tiaficment door of the house I was
watching grow darker. Indicating that
lhe door was being opened. Then
something stood lu the opening. A dark
tpot flitted from the wall to the door,
entered and the door closed.
I regretted that the elopement—for
such I believed It to be—could not
have been effected over the rear wall,
where I could have seen It They would
go out tha front basement door.
I went to bed and had just fallen
iisleep when I heard the crack of a
platoL Rising, I looked through the
window at the house of my story. The
basement and the two upper floors were
lighted. I saw figures passing before
the windows, but heard nothing. Aft
er awhile the lights began to be turned
I off, and In time all was agnln dark.
The next morning 1 saw In my news
paper an account of an attempted rob
bery of premises 73 Elm street The
iwllce were callod In, but the robber
had escaped—nobody hurt, nothing
lost Elm was the street back of my
Jiome. After breakfast I walked around
the block to note the number of the
house. It was 73.
A few days later, while scanning che
marriage notices In my morning paper,
J saw that Miss Emma A. of 73 Elm
i-treet had been married.
I never lenrned what had occurred
the night of the "robbery," but I form
ed this theory: In trying to get out on to
Kim street the couple, or, at least the
lovers, had been detected, supposed
to be burglars and shot at The po
lice entered, but were told there had
