standing in the middle of a square,
arid play ground fully mile from
the village. With his own official
hand he rang the bell to summon the
scholars, who having shufied into their
seats were treated to an eloquent dis
course, which Mr.. Robson had origin
ated as Fourth of July oration, and
which contained many graceful illusions
to the "Star- r-bi-spangled Banyer." ;"
Then, having discharged all his
oratorical fireworks, he left the pretty
teacher to her fate.
Could she ever forget the horrors of
that unhappy day? How she fell into
confusion worse confounded; how there
were thirty-six pupils and thirty-seven
classes; how no two children possessed
the same text bools;how this one" "maw'
didn't take ''no account O. grammar, :"
and that ones ''paw" said he 'swarn't
to be learned nawthin but 'rithmetic;"
how, when the shyness of the red
checked, brown-legged urchins wore
away, and the hot sun made them cross
and stupid, they began to quarrel and
fight; and finally how-pandemonium
broke loose. How she vainly tried to
still the storm, and at last bent to its
fury in pitiful flood of tears, helpless
and crushed by her miserable failure;
how that big, rude boy, Jim Slocum, of
whom she had been in honest terror
from the first moment she set eyes on
him, suddenly and gloriously came to
her rescue by seizing two of the worst
malefactors and humping their heads
together till they roared for mercy, and
vowed that he would s'sl1in the hide off
the first feller as troubled teacher"
How deliciously quiet was the calm
which followed this sanguinary
announcement; and, how, when the
rest were gone, she kissed the lads
bronzed check in fearful gratitude and
bound him to perpetual servitude.
But Wanda's trials were not ended
with the close of her school duties The
climax of that days miseries were
only attained when she reached her
lodgings and found the Dolmans in
fussy preparations for company.
"a surprise party, teaeherl All the
tip-tops of the place coming to call
upon you," Miss Martha announced in
kindly glee.
.'Oh," said Wanda, with a little gasp.
ssMust / really be present? am SO

'eThe idee! Not be present, indeed!
Why, there'll be the pastor an his
family, the Skinncrs, the La Forges,

There was something so comical in

CHAPTER VII.
RURAL Joys.

Havana was miniature edition of
Glastonbury bound in boards-rough,
unplaned boards as unsnooth as when
they left the sawmill, battered by rain
and storm, and lending the village an
air of abject squalor and dilapidation.
Paint seemed an unknown quantity
there in those days. / say in those
days, for year ago an enterprising
doctor discovered medicinal spring in
Havana, built big sanitarium and con-
verted the dull fishing village into a
gay summer resort, brilliant in color as
Joseph's coat; but when Wanda Arling.
ton first saw the place she thought
there never was spot more destitute
of all that is pleasant to the human eye,
Even the grand old river stately and
solemn, rolling with ceaseless swirl to
the ocean. failed 10 distract her mind
from the desolation around her.
Havana was blot on beautiful
landscape-man's defilement of natures
loveliness.
Sidewalks lacked boards, fences were
broken down and barns and outhouses
showed great rents in their sides like
gaping wounds, The streets were
tracks in the virgin soil, at one season
sand and dust, at another axle deep in
mud, and only enjoyable when winter
laid over them her soft carpet of snow.
It was nearly noon when Mr.. Dol
mans carriage drew up at his gaunt,
angular residence of unpainted wood,
with hideous blue paper blinds, which
made the eye ache to look upon them.
Wanda saw and shuddered.
The ''gyurls' were on the ''stupe" to
welcome them, for there were four Miss
Dolmans IN various stages Of celebato
decay.
The interior of the building was more
prepossessing. The great square sit
ting-rooa. with its neat array of simple
furniture. Its pretty rag oarpet, its Con.
necticut clock and its capacious rocking
chairs, gave promise of degree of
homelilxe comfort not assured at first
glance at the place. Then the bed
room, with its dainty curtains and
snow white drapery, charmed and sur
prised the young teacher, who with the
pliancy of youth soon began to make
herself at home,
The next day seemed like a dream TO
her-a horrible nightmare, which dis,
turbed her thoughts for years, when
the days Of her bondage would other
wise have been forgotten.
Squire Robson escorted her to the
scene Of her labors, rude little cabin,

which deprived him of the felicity of
escorting teacher home.
She had just put the finishing touches
to the arrangement of her white wooden
hood, in which her sweet face shone
forth too bewitchingly for description,
when she heard a gentle tapping at the
school-room door.
''Come in!'' she said, cheerfully, quite
expecting to see some wee mite appear
to claim her sympathy and redress for
having been numerically snowballed,
so the start she gave when Alphonse
Damiens, hatin hand, presented him
self, might be readily excused.

HAPPY WEST ENDERS.
The Electric Line to That Growing
Suburb Opened Yesterday.
AN EXTENSION PROMISED SOON
To Reach Ingram, Grafton and Mansfield
on the Panhandle Road.
CHARTERS BRANCH NOT COMPLETED

The opening of the West End electric
road yesterday leaves the Spring Garden
and the Butler bob-tail the only horse car
lines left in Pittsburg. This is . great
record, and shows the enterprise of the
local railway people. Rapid transit has
received high degree of development IN
this city, when it is remembered that four
years ago horse cars predominated and the
Pennsylvania and FIT Wayne roads did
land Office business in suburban traffic.
Now the people are using the cable and
electric lines. Even the Spring Garden
road is being changed, and in q short time
the motive power will be electricity.
1t was gala Sunday for the Iong-suffer-
ing West End people. The hum and buzz
of the electric cars were music to their ears,
and large crowds collected along the streets
and on the corners to admire the pretty
coaches as they whirled rapidly over the
tracks. The contrast with the snail-like
movements OF the horses was marked, and
put every workman who comes to Pittsburg
at an early hour in the morning in good
humor. Hereafter thev can sleep an hour
longer, and breakfast can be served at in
stead of5 O'Clock. The CHARTERS branch is

j. Dawson Gallery, one of the heavy
stockholders of the road, went to Chicago
last evening. He said they had 20 cars for
the line, ten were in operation yesterday
and the other ten will be on by next Satur-
day. The round trip was made in 80 min
utes. Mr.. Gallery promises that in year
or SO the West End road will be extended
out along the Panhandle, taking in Grafton,
Ingram, Mansfield and other prosperous
suburban towns located in that direction.
1t is the only outlet for the line, and the
company will take advantage of it. This
will be good news Tor those who now use
the Panhandle to reach their homes. As a
result of what has been dcne and the pros
poets ahead property in the West End and
vicinity is moving upward.
The West End line did very we'll for the
first day. The cars ran smoothly, except at
the foot of Fifth avenue, where the road
crosses the tracks Of the Pittsburg traction:
Several cars got of the rails and delayed
the p, A. & n. company. 1t is expected
that in a few days all the defects will be
remedied. Mr.. Gallery thinks the Second
avenue line will be in Homestead by next
year. The Birmingham people are still
doing all they can to block the extension up
the Monongahels river.

An interesting feature has arisen with re-
spect to the Inauguration of President Cleve-

day. The discovery OF this fact has ledv to
some discussion regarding the propriety Of
holding the inaugural ball on Saturday
night, when Sunday morning must neces-

II Inquiry yesterday of those who have
been prominently identified with the in
auguration ceremonies Of previous years
shows that this question need not occasion
concern.
In the first place the event known as the
inaugural ''ball' is in reality reception
merely. The throng in attendance is always
so great as to prevent dancing. In the
second place it has, with rare exceptions,
been brought to q conclusion by midnight,
even when no considerations of respect for
Sunday entered into the case. A ball on
Friday night would be inappropriate, and
q post ponement to Monday night would be
an injustice 10 the thousands of visitors
who would be compelled to leave the CITY
before that time. There Is no likelihood,
therefore, that the time-honored precedent
of an Inauguration ball on the evening of
inauguration day will be departed from
when Mr.. Cleveland is inducted into Office.
