minute, Ducky Arnold, that Bah wants
me to have him? Well, l guess know
o thing or two bout that. What'd she
want to cry for the other night when
that old Jones asked her to go to the
lawn party and that awful nice Mr..
Guy Brayton came and asked the same
thing when 1t was too later
"An what does she cry for most ev'ry
nightp It's cuz he don't come eny more.
l hear her, but when ask her what's
the matter she says, 'Oh, my head aches
go to sleep-don't bother me- Humph,
should think her head would ache. An
wait'l / tell you somethin else-only
don't you dare to breathe it to soul
Landl she'd be just wild if she knew
knew bout it. Well, the other mornin
picture stickin out from under her pill
low, and when peeked at it whose do
you s'pose it was2 Guess"
Bah brings her white teeth down rath-
er sharply over her under lip. She kicks
the toe of her pretty slipper restlessly
against the edge Of the step. Tomorrow
she will give this small sister little
piece of her mind, but tonight-well,
what is the use Of making a scene to-
night2 Everything is said now that can
be said, and what is worse it Is all true.
She actually comes quietly down step
to catch Ducky's answer.
mister Jones" Ducky's voice is faint
and little doubtful, but her words win
q storm of scorn.
"Mister Jones-Jones-Bal Jones?
Whyee, Ducky Arnold--well l guess it
wasn't. Don't tell you my sister Bab's
dead gone on that handsome other one
Guy-what's his name? Course she is.
Som /. But I'd like to know where she
keeps that picture daytimes l never
saw it before"
Their voices futter off into a little
giggle as they rise to run away under
the trees. The fun is commencing. The
boys are sending up a shower of Roman
candles
Bah gives an involuntary sigh.
"Oh, DEAR" she says; "oh, dear me-"
And then such q strange thing hap
pens. Somebody comes up the steps two
at time. Somebody's hand is laid over
hers as 1t rests on the railing. Some
body's dear voice speaks.
"Is it true?" he asks little huskily.
'Is it true, Bah, darling2 couldn't help
hearing. Do you care for me2 | love
you So have a right to know"
But Bah doesn't say anything after
that one half startled ooh" What she
does Is quite as expressive as words
When he slips his arm around her she
let's it stay there and lifts her pretty
face confdingly up against his own.
Fizz, sizz, whizzl A long, fiery tailed
rocket shoots into the air and a great
mass of red light flares up through the
darkness, illuminating everything with
its soft radiance.
Especially prominent for moment
are those two figures upon the porch,
and most especially prominent Is the tall
young mans right arm, where 1t Is
thrown around the white shawl.
Yet In the excitement of looking for
the next display no one sees the little
tableau except one man, and as the
lightfades out he turns in his leisurely
walk up the path toward the house and
goes back-this time straight to the
street and cityward.

THEN HE LOOKS BACK AT THE GIRL.
There is really something delightful
to study in his imperturbable self es-
TEEN, or, that is, he might be marvel
to disinterested outsider. To Bah he
is O bore. Nevertheless she greets him
with a winning smile as he crosses the
lawn and joins the family group. The
older boys are busy arranging the rock
cts and planning for the most advan-
tageous places for the colored fires, and
a small army Of children are making
the air hideous with their excited
screams over the sputtering of firecrack-
ers.
"Well, WE'LL" says Mr.. Jones with an
appreciative smile, "this Is downright
jolly. l really think, Miss Austin, you
were wise to stay at home. Can | sit
here on this rug beside you? No, no, ]
don't want chair This Is ever SO
much nicer"
Mr.. Jones looks at her with approval.
1t is not so dark yet but that he can see
how very becomingly she Is dressed. It
seems to him that he has never seen her
look 30 sweet and dainty before, and all
unconscious of the irony Of Fate, he
placidly congratulates himself on the
fact that 1t Is all intended for him.
Perfect night" he SAYS. throwing his

Squeak the fife and beat the drum,

Let the roasting pig be bled,
Quick, twist off the cockerel's head;
Quickly rub the pewter platter,
Heap tho nutcake fried in butter
Set the cups and beaker glass,
The pumpkin and the apple sauce.
Send the keg to shop for brandy
Maple sugar we have handy;
Independent, staggering Dick,
A noggin mix of swiggering thick;
Sal, put on your russet skirt

Today we dance to fiddle diddle,
Here comes Sambo with his fiddle.
Sambo, take q dram Of whisky
And play up Yankee Doodle" frisky
Moll, come leave your witchcd tricks
And let US have a reel Of six.
Father and mother shall make two,
Sal, Moll and stand all arrow;
Sambo. play the dance with quality
This is the day Of blest equality.
Father and mother are but mon,
And Sambo Is a citizen.
Come, foot 1t Sal-Moll, figure In,
And mother, you dance up TO him;
Now saw as fast as you can do,
And father you cross DER 10 Sambo.
Thus wo dance, and thus we play,
On glorious Independence Day.

There is not cloud in the sky, and al

ADJUSTMENTS.
At Cordray's Theater.

The second performance of "a Brave
woman" was given last night at Cor
oray's to an enthusiastic and bulky au-
dience. The appreciation of the fine
scenery displayed was marked and ap-
propriate. The realism of the storm scene
In the fourth act evoked loud and con-
tinued applause, and the ingenuity and
art employed in its construction were we'll
deserving of the distinction shown. The
entire performance was received with
the fervid warmth exhibited by Seattle
theater goers when a talented enaction is
given. and the people in the cast were ap-
plauded in proportion to the prominence
OF their parts. The specialties offered in
the auditorium were In entire accord with
the popular mind, and the performers
were recalled again and again.

He called attention to the necessity of
making some arrangement for extending
the nursery. August was good month
to work. and he hoped the city council
would assent to the proposed arrangement
with George Kinnear. as he wanted to
begin clearing the Broadway park, and
the nursery being there was disadvant-
age. A nursery could never be made very
slightly.
1t was resolved that Commissioners
Bailey and Bennett meet the committees
of the council and present the matter to
them.
