mo, sir" said an old conductor on
union derot the other day, f'the rail
road hobo doesn't work me much these
DAYS for rides. Time used TO be when
a railroad man out of job could get
a ride on letter, but if we took 'em
all that come up to us these days we
wouldn't carry any other kind of pas
sengers."
While the conductor was talking a
pretty girl in neat tailor-made dress
entered the telegraph Office and leaned
over the register, This was rather un-
usual, as the Office is used only by rail
road employees. "Bill,"the conductor,
sauntered into the Office, and the girl.

"Well, I'm eff the Rio Grande, and ]
want to go east to get job. Will you
take me?" ~ itth{
The old conductor might have been
bowled over with a ball of tissue paper.
The pretty girl took out her card and
satisfied the telegraph men in the sta.
tion that her story was true, She once
more appealed to the conductor In
stead of turning her down." as some
of the boys feared he would, he gave
her his arm and escorted her out of the
Office and put her in the parlor car Of
his train. r

but. owing to the loss of distant rela-

she was, her coming had been greatly
DELAYED. 1t was now more than year
since Tom and she had partedin Wash
ington. In the meantime Tom had
whiled away his leisure hours in the
somewhat narrow circle of Sitka So
ciety, but in that narrow bound he
had found fair Russian flower that
he knew bloomei for him. Though
Tom had not made love to Natalia-he
was too honorable for that-they had
been together constantly and each
knew instinctively what was in the

las watched his friends as they eagerly
opened their letters and listened with
assumed interest to the bits of news
they were anxious to share, for at
sitka the population throng to the
wharf when the steamers whistle is
heard and wait .he coming of the ship
and the distribution of the mails. The
people crowd into the tiny post office
on the dock and watch impatiently for
the longed-for home letters.
But Toms home letter was not a
comfort to him. ''Well, she is really
coming" he thought, "a month from
to-day, If the steamer is on time. l will
be married man; worse luck How
can ever tell Natalia, dear little girl!
] wouldn't willingly hurt her tender
feelings for million dollars, as hard
up as am" and Tom whistled rue
fully.
Tom Douglas was naval officer and
before being stationed at Sitka he had
been on duty a winter in Washington,
where he plunged into society with
that gay abandon that only sailor
knows, for after three years at sea a
young fellow is quite ready for the
rush and whirl of the gay capital. All
houses were open to the handsome
lieutenant, but there was one where
he was especially welcome. The
hostess was pretty widow of some
twenty-six or twenty-seven years of
age. Her husband, who had died soon
after their marriage, seemed not to
have laid very strong hold on her af-
fections, for after mourning him decor
ously for year she blossomed into the
gayest of the gay and her house be-
came center for the young officers
who had been the friends of her hus-
band.
1t was there that Tom spent most of
his time. He dropped in during the
morning and discussed the newest gos-
sip or the latest magazines and came
in for cup of tea in the afternoon
and remained till her cozy parlor was
empty save for himself and her.
'Are you going to the assembly to-
night?" he would ask.
"Will you be there, Tom?" Mrs.
Deering had sucn good-fellowship
way of using her friends first names.
''Yes, presume So"
''Well, then, am going" the little
widow would reply.
And that was the way the winter
passed, Tom running in at all hours,
privileged to smoke or read, to talk or
listen. the most indulged OF all her
callers. When his orders came for his
immediate removal to Alaska he put
the document in his pocket and went
as usual to the CHEEKY home OF Mrs
Deering He told her the news, and
was really surprised and flattered by
her reception of it. She took both his
hands in hers and the tears gathered
in her bright eyes.
"Oh, Tom," she said, II hate to have
you go"
Now. it never occurred to Lieut..
Douglas before, but at this moment
the idea did come to him that he was
in love with the widow. He drew her
tobim and kissed away her tears, and
before he knew it he was engaged to
Alice Deering.
He left soon after arranging to have
Alice ioin him later in the summer,
