Dan Stewart had been domiciled in
the little house across the ravine for
more than week and with his usual
adaptability had niched himself into his
new environment. The few people who
had met him were so charmed with him
that more desired to share the privilege,
and already the ripple of his popularity
was circling around the neighborhood.
Mrs. Beverley's little boys were the
first to make his acquaintance, being on
terms of familiar intimacy already in
the house of his entertainer, and they
came home to their mother after a
lengthy call perfectly enraptured.
Hes the incest gentleman that ever
was, mamma" quoth Hector, with en-
thusiasm. He lived, when he was a
little boy, far away in country where
the snow lays on the ground all the
time and the people go about on snow
shoes-such funny things, like great
long paddles-and they have sleighs
with bells on the horses collars, and all
the children have sleds and slide down
hill and run races and have lots of fun,
and they skate, mamma, like in the pic
ture books, ON rivers twice as big as
this and walk about on the paddle
shoes. Look! I've got a picture of
them Mr.. Stewart drew me-" And he
produced rough sketch and exhibited
it with rapture. "Oh, mamma, it must
be lovely to live where it's awful cold!
Wouldn't you like to go?"
go where" asked Mary, smiling.
Then Ran, the accurate, took up the
tale. Its New Brunswick" he said. 81
said it over to myself lots of times and
| remember it quite right, because OF
the stew with loads OF pepper in it that
Aunt Neelie likes. And Hcc, Mr.. Stew
art didn't say twas winter there all the
time Don't you know he told us about
the flowers in the woods and going after
berries with his sisters? That couldn't
be if there was snow all the time"
That's so" acquiesced Hector, yield
ing the point; but didn't mind about
the flowers. can get them here, and !
should so love to walk on paddles"
Mrs. Beverley herself was very favor
ably impressed when, the following
evening, Ned Anthony brought his
friend to call, little proud of him and
vain of the intimacy, and anxious to
show her that he had friends of his own
making who could bear comparison with
any in the land for birth and breeding.
He sat very complacently and listened
to their conversation, putting in a word
or so now and then, for he was no great
talker. and needed to he specially reused
and drawn out. He wanted these two
to like each other, and he seemed In a
fair way of having his wish gratltied,
for Stewart and Mrs. Beverley had many
things in common.
Dams sunniness of temperament and
vivacity. which was free and yet sug-
gested reserves of gracious repose, were
captivating to the woman who had had
SO much of moods and storms and sense
less domestic upheavals. He was charm
ing and sympathetic, and did not ex-
haust her by demands and exactions
that kept her at high pressure. There
was no. necessity of partisanship, even

"There isn't much Of that to dread up
here" she added, laughing.
An idea dawned on Mary which sent
a light of laughter into her eyes and
caused hidden dimple to play hide and
seek in her smooth pale cheek. But
when Nan asked for an explanation Of
her amusement she refused to give it.

would have summoned them. She had
come TO crisis in her affairs when she
longed for the support and refuge Of the
presence of other women.
Mans pretty dark face was down in
cool water in the big old fashioned bowl,
but she managed to remark between the
dips: "We are going to stay until you
send for the sheriff, Mary; 80 thought
it was Just as we'll to tell Charlie he
might follow later on. It's horribly
stuffy in town and I've ordered him to
pay Aunt Neelie lots of attention in my
stead" With a smothered laugh that
gurgled in the water: 81 wish you could

the Dane was fool to him; melancholy
distilled from every pore. He'll do it,
though, because he really is good
hearted fellow. hope you won't mind
his coming; he isn't bit troublesome
and he'll need recuperation."
Mrs. Beverley assured her that she
did not mind it in the least, and that the
fiance would be most welcome. Then
she turned smilingly to Ella and offered
hospitality to her friends as well. But
that young lady airily waved the offer
aside. She was in the enviable position
of caring for nobody and being the OBJ
ject of nobody's care, she said, ard in

clothes and enjoy herself in delicious,

Paving Women the Same as Men.

The school board of ST. Paul has abol-
ished the distinction of sex in the mat
ter of salaries. Hereafter the women
teachers will receive equal pay with the
men. In establishing the schedules of
future compensation for the teachers Of
the high school and the manual labor
school no sex distinction is made. Here
after it will be purely question of ca
pacity, individuality and efficiency. The
schedule adopted reads:
Grade 3-First year, $3.50: second
year, 81 900: third year, $1,000; fourth
year, $1,1OO: fifth year. 81 100; sixth
year, 81 200.
Grade 2-First year, $1,000; second
year, 81, 100; third year, Sl,2O6 fourth
year, $1,3OO: fifth year. 81 400; sixth
year, $1,000.
Grade First year, 1000; second
year, $1,000; third year, 81 400: fourth
year, $l,5OO; fifth year, 81 800; sixth
year. 81 200; seventh year, 81, 800; eighth
year, 81 900: ninth year, $4,000.
Thus, no matter whether the teacher
be man or woman, the salary for the
same service will be Identical Boston

Animal Wisdom.

In moving to new place of residence
we found on the premises large cat
which had been left there by the former
occupant. She was not of the real do
mestic kind, but lived principally in the
barn, occasionally venturing into the
house to obtain her food. On one &C.
casiOn, much to the surprise of my wife,
she came up to her and mewed several
times, turning each time toward the
door leading to the barn. This she re-
peated until Mrs. N was induced by
curiosity to follow her. when she led the
way to a barrel half full of straw, up
the side of which she climbed, all the
time mewing and looking at my wife,
and there were five kittens, cold and
dead. Mrs. N remarked, They are
cold and dead, pussy" and the cat went
away satisfied.
She would sometimes scratch the chill
dren, and we were fearful she would
seriously injure them, and one day
said in her presence that Il would shoot
her" She was missing for about six
weeks, and of course had then ''got off

THE Daily El9ht.
MONDAY, AUGUST l, 1892.
She Surprised the Noungstor.

Two boys mot quite in their teens, got
into a quarrel in Twcnty-third street,
near the Fifth Avenue hotel. the other
day. and after exhaustipg their reSPer-
tive vocabularies they fell to pummehng
each other viciously. They were of the
tough species, both physically and social
". Their alteration naturally attract
ed much attention in that thorOughfare,
and a score or more persons stopped to
watch the conflict. Melody showed any
desire to interfere until along came a
bright and breezy tailor made girl, walk
ing as erect as a soldier and with a
quick, springy step. She took in the
fight at a glance, and stopping within
an arms length of the combatants she
commanded them TO desist. Each boy,
with scant breath, conveyed to her in a
rude. Slangy way his desire that she
should mind her own business.
What's that you say" said the young
woman, as she stretched ont two glOved
hands toward the boys. Mind my own
business, eh?" and the next instant the
two hands were drawn back with
vigorous jerk, with boy dangling from
each hand. With firm grip on their
coat collars the athletic girl knocked
the heads of the bellicose boys together
as easily as if she were handling a pair
of three pound dumbbells. Then she
shook out what little breath had re-
manned in the lads and threw them
away from her, one toward Fifth avenue
and the other toward Sixth avenue.
The lads gasped and made as much haste
as they possibly could to get away from
the pretty amazon.-New York Times.

For Holding Up q salo onkeeper at East
Helena.
Judge Hunt sentenced James Conroy and
John Irish yesterday to serve five years
each in the state prison at Deer Lodge.
They are the men who held up a saloon
keeper at East Helena on July 8. Conroy
and Irish went into the place and called for
beer. After drinking one of them laid a
fifty cent piece on the counter. The bar
tender turned his back to the men to make
change. When he looked around again he
was gazing ut at q six-shooter and told to
hand over the M in the till. The men
got away and one of them had almost
reached BozemRn when he was recognized
by Conductor Ioasby and held. The state
had such a clear case against them that
Conroy and Irish knew they stood no show
before a jury and pleaded guilty.
Edgar M. Duval who was captured at the
Coliseum theater a few mornings ago by
Police Sergeant Callahan has been ordered
to plead on July 25. He is charged with
grand larceny and burglary in the NIGHT
time. He will be tried for completely in
horse stealing. He is said to be one of the
gang that stole a horse in Dry gulch sons
time ago. &. A. Ballet has been appointed
to defend Duval.
