GAVE UP THE GIRL HE LOVED
TO A RICH CHUM.

CHICAGO, June 25.-At Amherst
College, in the class of '53, there were
two chums, who had stuck together
ever since they had first entered COL
lege. They were fast friends and no
trouble had ever disturbed their
friendship. One was the son of rich
parents and the other of a country
minister. When they graduated the
rick mans son went into business
with his father in New York and took
his friend with him as an employee.
Things went smoothly for some time,
when that common accident of life
happened.
They both fell in love with the same
girl. The fight in the heart of the
employee was long and bitter, but,
contrasting his position with that of
his friend, the difference in the ad-
vantages he could offer the woman,
he yielded, and with scarce a word of
parting, with none of explanation, he
left New York and went West. year
afterwa1d found him in San Francis
CO, and he soon joined the gold-dig-
gers. His fortune was varied, at times
rich, at times poor; afterwards in Ne
vada he followed silver mining, and
when the silver craze struck Leadville
he went there. There he was sue.
cessful, and this spring, a rich man, he
determined to return East for the first
time in twenty -four years. Yesterday
as he got off the southwestern train Al

main line train which was to carry

him to Chicago, a lady who was try
ing to turn a seat attracted his atten-
ton.
Stepping forward to help her, he
first looked with wonder, then JOY, to
see that it was the woman he had run
away from so long ago, woman now
past forty, but handsome yet. He
talked to her timidly at first, and UNI
certain. When he learned that she
was unmarried his questions came
faster yet, and her present condition
was soon knownto him. Her parents
had died, and, depending on her own
exertions for support she had taught
school in western Iowa. The old love
still lived in the miners heart, and ne
soon found that he had not been en-
tirely forgotten by her. To make a
story short, it was very happy-look-
ing couple who got off the train here
that night, looking for a minister, and
still happier one which registered al
