Nj. Carnes went to supper last night. Ii
was thought by those about the hotel that
after reading the Ews.DEMooRAT, which
by the way was In decided demand, the
doctor would not have the colossal nerve
TO appear.
The doctor went to supper however.
He didn't go very early, in fact waited
until every one got out of the dining room
before he appeared.
He took his accustomed seat at the head
of the table and called to him Miss Lille
Kline, the young lady with whom he was
desirous of eloping.
"Did you see the piece about us in the
NEws-DEMooRATb" inquired the doctor.
The young lady stated that she had
seen IL.
swell, il is not true is il p said the doc
tor.
1t was the evident intention of DIR.
Carnes to get the young lady to deny the
whole business, but this she would not do.
There was gentleman in the dining
room at the time and the doctor was wait
ing for him TO get out before he declared
himself
DR.. Carnes was not the only one waiting
for tho dining room to be cleared Of every
one. 1t might have been observed that
one of the doors to the kitchen was slight.
ly ajar and part OF the features of very
angry woman might have been seen, II
the doctor had looked in that
direction. Finally the gentleman in
question who had no part in the
affair and was therefore de trop, finished
II. ,ti all y;.r
TO Lille and endeavoriDg to get her to
deny the story of the proposed elopement.
As the door closed upon the gentleman
in question, another door opened. 1t was
the door to the kitchen. Glancing up, Dr..
| Carnes discovered a woman bearing down
upon him, The woman in question was
| filed with ire and II was evident that she
intended to vent her wrath upon the doc
| tor.
1t was Mrs. Kline and Mrs. Kline was
! mad.
"What have you been trying to do with
my daughter ?" demanded the woman as
she lowered over oyer the doctor who was
cleeriy uneasy. .s-..s
"Why-what-I don't know-what do
you mean ?" he gasped.
"You know very we'll what Imean,n
said Mrs. Kline.
"There is no truth in il, said DR.. Carnes,
"Don't you dare to deny it," said the
mother. "If you dare to deny it / will
break your face"
Mrs. Kline raiged her hand and it would
not have been surprising IL she had struck
him. Her daughter is winsome, pretty

| men.
There are times when 1t is sin to bottle
ones wrath and Mrs. Kline was in frame
of mind which occasioned her to adopt
that doctrine. She sailed into the doctor
right and left and IL any one ever heard
the riot act read in a really superb man
ner 1t was DR.. Carnes.
~ don't want your daughter an6
wouldn't have her" he finally interjected
"You don't want her because you cam
get her." said Mrs. Kline. "You did van
her, but you can't have her. You are toe
far beneath her to even tie her Shoes"
The doctor raised his hand deprecat
ingly when the indignant mother said
Don't attempt to deny that you tried t.
run away with her. You were watched
and had party in position to hea
your conversation with her and she heart
you plan the elopement."
While delivering herself of this speech
Mrs. Kline again raised her hand as II Il
strike the doctor.
Seeing that he had very little show O
coming out ahead in a war of words witt
Mrs. Kline, he turned his attention to on
OF the dining room girls whom he accuse,
of reporting the. story to NEws-DEMo
cRAT reporter who boards at the hotel
The girl resented the allegation, when Dl
Carnes used words 70 her which incense
her. She picked up a plate and II is alto
gether probable that it would have foun
: its way through the atmosphere in hi
direction had he not retracted.
Mrs. Kline is second cook at the Hott
Yohe and is not at all well OIL in tn
worlds goods. She is determined tht
, her daughter shall not be persecuted fu
ther, aud has resigned her place and II
' tends to move away and take her daugi
ter with her. The mind of the girl is no
turned against DIR. Carnes.
NEW WAY OUT OF IT.
