A LUCKY

my ldLueC, WHO uau OooQ q
since my birth. took for his second
wife the widow of his old friend,
Captain Spinner. My father was
quite an elderly man already, and
the widow was nearly his own age.
The terms Of his offer were these:
Mrs. Spinner. l have a fine old
house with no one to keep it. You
are the best housekeeper I know and
have no house to keep. You have
hard times, | know. So have l, in
another way. Think it over"
You see, it was not romantic WOO
ing. As for the widow-a portly
woman with a high color, who re-
fused to let her hair grow gray as
long as there were dyes in the drug
stores-she replied frankly:
"Oh, | don't need to think long
over it. It's too good an offer. But
never do anything without consult
ing the captain"
AS Captain Spinner had now been
dead 10 years this might have star
tied q new acquaintance, but my ia
Their knew very well what 1t meant
and said:
Very well, ma'am."
Then Mrs. Spinner brought forth
a little triangular candle stand and
sent her compliments to Mr.. Mad
der, and would he spare her an hour.
Mr.. Maddler came at once. He
was a remarkable youth of the
neighborhood, in whose presence
tables danced and raps were heard

Spinner used to say with a sigh,

but a gifted amateur. Under mis-
long, white fingers the table danced
about beautifully and these words
were spelled out:

mate for my late consort. Take her.
with my blessingl"
Now, Captain Spinner had never
said ''shiver my timbers" or called
my father my hearty" in life. But
nc ones attention was called to that
fact, and the result was that Mrs.
Spinner became Mrs. Hardman very
shortly and fulfilled my fathers
highest expectations. She looked
very well in the rich black silks and
satins she could now afford to wear,
made us very comfortable, petted us
as if we were babies and kept the
house in apple pie order. In return
my father made no objection to a Sc
ance in the library every Friday,
where we heard the three legged
candle stand dancing away at a great
rate.
Mr.. Maddler always attended these
meetings, but my father did not ask
him at other times. He was a mere
youth in those days, but l did not
like him either, so he gained no foot
hold in the house.
On the whole, we were very hap

sunday--The Inquest.
Jean Davier, Frenchman, aged bout
IS years, was struck by a motor on the
Great Salt Lake & Hot Springs road on
Sunday morning, receiving injuries from
which he died shortly afterwards.
1t seems that Davier, wha was rather
deaf. was walking along the track tow
ards the Hot Springs between II and II
O'Clock, when the train came along.
John Gibbons, the engineer, saw the
man and whistled. Davier apparently
heard the signal, and turning around,
stepped off the track and the engineer
supposed the man would get out of the
way. He did not do SO, however, and as
IS was too late to stop the train, he was
struck in the back and badly mangled.
The injured man was brought back to
this city on the train, but died few min
utes after reaching the depot, and the
body was taken to Shelves Undertaking
establishment.
Coroner Taylor held an inquest yester-
day morning. Daniel Dunno, Daniel
Camomile and A. s. Post being sworn as
Jurors. After listening to the testimony
of the engineer, conductor and passen-
gers, they returned verdict setting forth
that the killing was wholly accidental.
Davier had lived in Salt Lake about
four months and 1t IS believed that he
was unmarried. He worked for j. H.
Bacon on the Sanitarium trench, and
also at street paving. His acquaintance
say he was sober and industrious man.
A gentleman who came back on the
train which bore Davier to this city, saws
that the treatment of the injured man at
the depot was nothing short of iHhuman.
There was no one to receive him, and
after his arrival the individual in charge
telephoned to the police station for the

Of our informant, the dying man would
have been loaded into it and carted off
like drunkard. A carriage was finally
sent for, but before it reached the depot
Dayier had breathed his last.
