and had kept her griefs at home until
now, fairly driven for consolation to
Abby's kindly arms. And there she lay
and sobbed her story--how Jim had been
placed under bonds and had broken them,
and could not pay and must go away to
some prison. Little by little she laid bare
the trial of desolate years, and ABBY
listened sympathetically
"Jiin could get away" said the widow,
che would go into the navy, as his father
did. Jim always wanted to, but lcouldn't
let him go; he is all | have. He can do
nothing else and would not let him 60

The next day Abby strobe down the
white road to the village and drew all her
money from the bank. The cashier Joked
her upon extravaganza.

demanded.
/ Zone hundred dollars" said the clerk,
Abby counted the amount on the table,
while all the room stared. Come, jim, "
said she.
Jim came from his constable guarded
corner and followed her out. He was
amazed. His malodorous career had not
brought him many acts of kindness at the
townspeople's hands. What does this
mean, Miss Abby" be said huskily.
She smiled at him reassuringly. Just
this, Jim-gold heeled shoes. And, jim

the man very well, but l was thinking Of
something and his approach did not make
a clearly defined impression on my brain.

that did not recall me sufficiently from my

Tennyson's Wrath.

"Vermin on the locks of literature" is
the forcible but not very elegant phrase
the poet Tennyson applies to those critics
who accuse him of plagiarism, with es-
pecial reference to Mr.. Charlton Collins.
1t is severe, but from the quotations
from Mr.. Collins in the English periodi-
calls most American readers will con-
slider it Just. For instance, where Ten
nyson speaks of the oceans "roar," Mr..
Collins thinks it an imitation Of Homer,
and declares that when he speaks of a
waterfall as "slow dropping wells of
thinnest lawn" he got the idea from an
imitation waterfall in fheater!

Like the wall Of the night wind, the moan

Doth the heart utter plant for It's own.
Like the voice Of the whippoorwill, crying
In the silence and darkness alone,

So the tides OF my lonely heart flow.
So the soul that is in me makes moan.

DECIDE 1T THIS FALL.

The feeling that the capital question
should be settled this fall is growing in
all sections of the state. The argu-
ments in favor of an early and final de-
cislon are u~nanswerable. The welfare
OF the state demands that all citizens
should vote for the town which they be-
lieve presents the best advantages for
the capital, and thus, if possible, ar
range for the early establishment of
public institutions. The Great Falls
Tribune appreciates the situation. Tt
says:
"There are many reasons why it would
be to the advantage Of the state to have
the capital question settled this year.
In tho first place the other public in
situations cannot be located until the
capital is decided upon, and a further
p~ostponement of the decision means
keeping the state at a standstill in some
respects when it might be progressing.
Ii the public institutions could be
agreed upon, there would be an impetus
given to public enterprise, such as could
scarcely arise from any other circum-
stances. At each point where one of
the state institutions was to be built
there would be an unusual demand for
labor and building material of all kinds,
and the certainty of these works being
carried on would give rise to al! sorts Of
private building and business projects"
Aside from this employment, which
would materially help the several COM
munlties, the state is badly in need of
the institutions. No sound reasons can
be given why these should not be es-
tablished at An early date. All that
can prevent is a foolish and s~enseless
sentiment among voters of throwing
away votes by the complimentary"
method. Vote for Montana as we'll as
the capital!
