Chorus Beauty.
A short time ago it began to be no.
ticed that bright Young newspaper
man had given up his Bohemian habits,
and during his leisure hours was no
longer to be found with the other roam
ers of the fraternity. He was missed
from his favorite haunts and his COM
panions began to wonder what had be-
come of him. When seen during hours
of labor he seemed to wear faraway,
distracted look, as if his thoughts were
elsewhere, and his work was being done
after a mechanical fashion. His work
also showed signs of peripatetic con-
science, so much so that he was sup
posed to have contracted severe case
of dyspepsia.
The real cause of his lapse from b.
hemian ways was never Guessed at, and
although ne was often seen in the press
box at the Harris theater no one seemed
to guess that there was an undue at
traction for him behind the fOOtlightS.
All were not blind, however, and one of
his friends noticed the covert smile that
passed between him and one of the
young ladies in the company. So sly
lynX-eyed Jaxon caught on. or fine
would have been levied, and the bud
ding passion posted in large bold-faced
type at some point of vantage in the
wings.
Gradually the affair began to leak out,
and on one occasion the pair were seen
taking a midnight drive by the light of
the moon. Whispers began to be WhiS-
pered, and the actions of the loving
couple were watched. The thermome-
ter will register several degrees below
zero on a hot day In July befor
chorus girl will fail to hunt
to its lair any love affair that
chances to be going on in the COM
pany, and 1t was not long before one of
| these was possessed of the secret. Of
course she could not keep it Tor any
number of consecutive hours, and the
little affair would have been known
| long ago had not the recent troubles in
| the company caused it to be forgotten for
the time. But the terrOrs of disarmament
were nothing to the maiden, for long
before the young pencil pusher had
commenced to save up his large earn
ings and prepare for home to which
| to take his first charmer when she
would become his bride. for sc much
the amateur detective in tights had
| learned.
A quiet wedding in Wisconsin had
been prepared. but now that the affair
has leaked out, it is probable that the
newspaper fraternity will receive the
necessary invitations. The exact date
is not known, but it is understood that
the ceremony is to take place in few
weeks. Meantime, when the company
leaves Minneapolis, one, tat least, of its
members will remain behind under the
care of her intended.
"There is also little bit of romance
about the affair, in the manner in which
the young couple became acquainted.
Near the theater there is kept large
dog of the shepherd breed, Who delights
in running at passers-by. and soaring
them out of several months growth.
One evening the young man was walk
| ing past just after the theater had let
out, and saw the young lady leaning
against the building, terrified beyond
measure at the brute's threatening as
pect. He boldly advanced, drove off
the animal with blow of his cane. and
escorted the lady home. His brave ac-
ton won her regard, which soon after
| ripened into love, ard the outcome will
be quiet wedding in newspaper Cir
