slashed Faust in a manner which as
tonished that high-spirited animal, and
sent him along in fine style, which
would have raised him several inches
in the estimation Of Miss Mary Give
had she been there to see.
He galloped some miles, and then
turned to the coast and travelled home
ward at a slower pace along the cliffs.
Presently he came to a cleft in the
cliffs. which ran inward from the sea,
and barred his further progress in that
direction.
The jump was too ugly for a man in
his senses to attempt. He forthwith
proceeded to skirt it.
On sudden he pulled Faust up with
an abruptness which sent him onto his
hind legs, for a Womans Shrek had
pierced the air.
Across the gap, few hundred yards
away. in a hollow previously hidden
( from his view, he saw Mary menacing
a rough-lo0klng man In a sailors dress
with the walking stick which always
accompanied her upon her solitary RAM
/ bles.
But she was only a girl, and before
Dandy had time to fully grasp the stu
1 alton, the stick was flying from her
! hand and she was completely at the
mercy of her prosecutor.
The blood few to Dandy's face.
Don't be frightened, Mary he

failure a horrible death awaited both
horse and rider on the rocks over
| hundred feet below.
She looked ND and saw him for the
first time At the same instant she rec
ognized the danger of what he was
about to do and her face went whittier,
| if possible, than before.
For Gods sake, stay where you
are" she shrieked; you'll kill your
selfI
And then-she shut her eyes and
prayed as she had never prayed in her
life, for the man she had called effem-
mate had dug his spurs into the horses
sides, and Faust had sprung like an
arrow from a bow at the yawning gulf
| between them.
The agony Of a month seemed con-
centrated in the moment OF suspense
that followed. 8 heavy thud on the
earth told her that he was safe, and
for once in her life she must have faint
/ ed, for when she opened her eyes again
her late assailant was hobbling lamely
away in the distance, and Dandy was
on his knees beside her with the splin-
tered fragment of a riding whip in his
hand, and his lips so close to hers that
she almost fancied that it was their
touch which had awakened her.
Thank GoGp' he said, in voice that
trembled with emotion, "I-you fright
ened me awfully."
Not so much as you frightened me-"
she murmured. You risked your life
for my sake o. it was terrible, terri

Did you faint because you feared

Washington. February 27-Among
West Nirginians in Washington a good
deal of talk is heard those days about
the candidates for the gOvernorship
to succeed Gov. MacCOrkle. IL is felt
TO be of che greatest importance 20 the
future of the party in the State that
the nominee for chief executive of the
State as well as those OF the other Off
ces shall be selected solely with a view
TO the party welfare and not because
of any private considerations whatever.
The very best man available should, it
is generally conceded. be chosen to lead
the Democratic fight ior control Of
West Virginia so that the enthusiasm
OF the Democratic masses may be
aroused and no excuse Afforded for
lack of interest in or hostility to the
ticket The nominee ought to be so
unmistakeable and CODspicuOUsly fit
for the honor conferred that all true
Democrats anCI friends Of good govern
ment without regard 10 party. viii rally
20 his support

cerned. and aid i'm redeeming the Con-
Gressional delegation from Republican

f.ent ne could carry the State by a
safe majority. and promised to make
campaign that would bring 10 a glow
again all the old time Democratic en-
thusiasm and insure the casting OF
every Democratic ballot in the State.
The general admitted that Judge
Bennett. of Weston. would make an
admirable candidate. and said that il
the judge wanted the nomination and
would go in g make the fight for f.,
he could get g. Cen. Watts. while will
Ing TO take h lead himself, indicated
q willingness TO- stand aside should it
appear that the masses Of the party
desired Judge Bennett as their leader
instead of himself Tn this il is thought
here the general showed the spirit
which should animate every other man
Who rs ambitious for the honor but
who is broad enough to put the party
welfare before his own personal de-
sires.

Miss Madlen's brightest dancing school
scholars.
Vic Geery was p%rostrated early inlthe
evening by the eneryating weight OF a
love OF a mustache and was compelled to
! decline many fattering offers.
Tom McKinstry laughed so much he
is hysterical to-day.
Roy Lewis, as caller, is pronounced by
the girls a crack-a-jack in every respect.
Harry Shorts lovely beard, dressed a
la White Horse, with bacon grease trim
mings, was gazed ON with bated breath
by numbers, OF enyious would-be bellies.
Chas. Short with a limburger sandwich
in his Goa tail pocket WAS plainly in
evidence during the evening.
Frank Dolan and Frank Hampton
glided sylph-like oyer the polished floor
and elected rounds of applause for their
fairy like movements. Their absence
could not be explained after the tomalie
vender entered the hall.
Bill Geery was pronounced as enter
tanning as ever, but a rumor travelled
over the hall that he had supped on
onions and a vigorous denial availed
him naught.
g. NJ. Sanderson was a picture, with
eye-lids delicatley penciIed, cheeks just
tinted with a touch of carmine ink and
a lap order exposition On his mobile
countenance.
VIM Coulter was declared in a class all
by himself and running free. His dane
ing pumps peeped delicately forth from
under flowing pantaloons, like little
mice. His ~countenance was decorated
in hand painted colors-mode de Carlin.
Barney Moran and Ed Lewis posed in
a quiet corner as two modest daises.
Their faces threw forth a cheerful CLEAN
of p%erspiration and soapstone.
Lonnie Applegate, in a divided skirt
moved with an easy pedaling motion from

ognized by an odor of 9-9-9 liniment.
Ike Lothrop wore his boomers off
above the knees dancing with the dear
little short girls and in consequence is
held up to public gaze as the bright par
star Of the occasion.
But space forbids further mention.
A number of visitors attended and
went home again more than satisfied.

Good Sentiments.

How are the nominations for school
trnstee to be made? Will each political
party nominate or will the wishes of
the community be consulted regardless
of party? So long as men are elected
who will have the interests OF the school
at heart and work to that end, and ara
b~road-gauged and honorable IN all the
walks OF life. the Reveille will not ask
hat their politics are, but such men
should be selected to represent US
on the Board because our public
school management comes nearer our
Preside than any other branch OF the
public service, and none but men in
every way fitted for the trust should be
called. Talk with your %neigibors and
who is best fitted, run them. DOM
wait until the election, but think now.-

that the liens recently filed upon it by

A Right Good Time.

Last Saturday evening the members
OF Truckee Division No. 1913, b. Of L..
f., while in the middle of an impressive
installation ceremony of new officers for
the ensuing term OF two years, were
startled by a loud summons at the outer
door OF the hall. The Royal Outside, b.
U. M, cautiously created an aperture,
but was knocked down and walked over
by a large delegation OF the Ladies' Aux
Hilary to the b. OF l.. +. who Immediate
ly took prosessi III OF the premises. In
the panic that ensued among the dazed
''eagle eyes," Billy Painter knocked over
the stove, and the sacred goat made n
meal off OF three rituals and u set OF re-
gala. When order was finally restored
and the frightened members were resu-
rected from beneath the chairs and
other places OF concealment, card play
ing and other amusements were com-
msnced. The fun might have coniin-
ued indefinitely if George Abbay hadn't
been caught playing the same ace three
times, or Mrs. Geery could have been
kept from trumping her partners tricks.
As it was, delicious refreshments were
used to choke of the card sharps and re-
store harmony. Frank Hampton said
he hasn't had such u good time since he
had the measles.

A Slight Smash Up.

A wreck occurred at Thisbe on the G.
P. at the sidetrack about 4 miles east OF
town, Thursday morning, No. 8 being
involved. A long string OF cars with a
double header of engines was descending
the Gooseneck grade at that point where
the train parted. The head end came to
a standstill at once, the automatic brakes
doing their work faithfully, but the
head end consisting mostly of pipe cars
broke in two again, one part running in
to the head cut and the part into the
second cut. Several cars were smashed
and draw-heads scattered all over the
country but no one was injured. A
wrecking train fastened to the scene OF
the trouble but several hours were con-
sumed before traffic could be fully re-
sumed, No. 2 being held about two hours
at Desert.
