ready seller, but at fractional losses,

out any brisk bidding. Grand Central

corded at d cent or two below this
figure. Sacramento was dropped in
good-sized blocks at from So to 66 cents.

lures OF the call of the unlisted stocks
on the previous day, fattened ont. and
was weak at the close at 614 cents bid
and 10 asked. Lower Mammoth was
stronger, although it did not touch 81
in the bidding, as predicted by a few Of
the brokers before the call. Still, the
stock was quickly picked up at 10 cents,
which was a big advance over the sell

the south-bound passenger to pass, jim
Atkins, long, lazy boy of about IS, q
brother of Grace's shambled up to the
vab and said, in voice too low for the
loungers to overhear:

"All right" said Dan, with something
in his voice as near like eagerness as he
was ever known to come. Where
abouts is she?"
"In the little room jest back of the
s'loon." Dams countenance fell at the
last word.
"You know what the rules Of the Den

"Shucks!" calculated Jim, con-
temptuously. "a man that amt got
sand enough to take little risk to get

said tell you she amt well, nohow."
"Not well?" interrupted Ben Stikes,

BLAMEs CHILLY BURnICK.''
A Chicago Parrot Disturbs Maiden
Aunt's Faith fn Her Good
Nephew.

Out In Indiana avenue pious, crot-
chiefly maiden aunt of uncertain years
has troop of vigorous, noisy nephews,
who rather resent being held in check
by the old woman's constant obiec-
tons to their games. Her pet aversion
is romping child and her solace and
confdante is huge parrot, more than
commonly clever and quite as pious as
herself. She trained the bird and is
proud OF the length and number Of
Bible verses Polly can quote.
The cage hangs in a large window
near the corner Of the lawn, where the
boys play "nibs." TlA other day when
it was warm enough to have the win
dows open, the aunt was Mortified to dis
cover that Polly was paying consider
able attention to the parlance of the
ring and was already proficient in many
of it's expressions. Accordingly she
benished the youngsters from the yard
and forbade them to use the place again.
The boys resisted and begged her to
hang the parrot in another window
She steadily refused, however. and they
were obliged to play elsewhere.
Later in the day the aunt decided to
60 to Austin for visit and left her par
rot to the care of the servants. There
uron, the boys, who had confided their
grievance to. the coachmau and OBJ
tanned permission to play marbles in
the stable yard, immediately returned
to their ground beneath the window.
Polly watched the games with interest,
aud the boys determined to have some
fun at their aunt's expense. Leaving
their game, they went indoors and pro-
ceeded to initiate Polly into the various
mysteries of "nibs." When she had
learned "knuckle. down" and how to
"shoot from taw," her attention was
trained upon craps and at this point the
assistance of the coachman was called
in. After an hours careful labor she
could screech "seben come lebcn" and
scraps"
Then one of the boys suggested that
when the old lady returned she would

taught Polly and advised that they COM
mand the bird not to betray them. So
they drilled her on the following:
Polly, who taught you to say
'craps2'" BILLY Burdicl."
Billy is the particularly mice" boy
next door, beloved by the aunt and de-
tested by the boys. Polly learned her
lessons admirably, and three days later,
when her owner returned, she proceed
edto display hernew English with much
pride. The old woman almost tainted
and instantly began an Investigation,
confidently expecting to catch her
nephews in some new mischief,
"Polly, who taught you to say
'crapsP" she asked.
"Billy Burdick," answered Polly, as
pert as ever.
The boys outside the window listen
Ing to the inquisition could scarcely re-
strain their glee.
Billy Burdick was Immediately repri-
manded by Polly's mistress, and, OF
course, as promptly disclaimed all
guilt. This left the aunt in u quandary.

One night in January Dan was reused

Hurriedly dressing, he opened the
door and stepped oct into the night. Ii
was cloudless, but the force OF Texas
"dry norther" was raging.
Good Lord, Grace!" he shouted.
"You oughtn't to be here. This winds
enough TO give YOU your death. W'hew,
but it is biting! And, besides, you
oughtn't to have come here to my house
by yourself, way in the dead of the
nigbt."
Il cane because wanted to see you.
Tn in trouble, an I've needed you aw-
ful. Why haven't you come to sec me

Il never knew you was needin'

"F'olks have been saying such awful
Thugs about ne" sobbed Grace. They
pretended like ! asked you TO come to
the saloon just on purpose to get you
fired, so that maybe Ben could get your
Job. Even pa talks that way. You don't
believe I done it on purpose, do you,
DAMP"
Dan merely shuffled his feet uneasily.
"I'd do heap fur you, Grace, but
amt tellin' no lies for nobody. What do
you want with me?"
This reply was spoken, not sternly'
but in SO manly, straightforward Il tone
thatal Grace's hypocrisy failed her. In
stead of sobbing convulsivcly, as she
had at first thought of doing, she mere
ly said:
"Dan, you and ME never was fitted for
each other. You know that"
"I've knowed for long time we was
different"
well, l know Pm not good enough
for you to wipe your fee! on" cried the
girl, giving way to tempest Of genuine
tears, very different from those she had
been planning only few moments be-
fore. 81 want to marry Ben, because he

There was the merest trace of emo

"Dan, for Gods sake stop him In some
way. 1 beg you by-by the love you
have for me-"
Just then a light cleaned out on the
darkness away to the southwest. Ii
was the headlight Of No. 16, just leav-
ing town. Dan g0zed in silence for
moment. Suddenly he eXclaimed:

IN DOUBT.

In Edith's smile there's hope and cheer
That quite dispel the sonber gray,
And all the Ills of yester-year
Are exiled from my dreams away.
When she is glad the world Is bright.
Her merry laugh dull care beguiles,
Each burdened heart grows strangely
light;
There's hope and cheer in Edith's smiles.
In Nellie's tears there's blest relief
From Ills to large proportions grown;
In lessening another's grief
we quite forget the Ills our own.
And be they tears of penitence,
Or tears of joy, each one endears.
The cause is OF no consequence
There's blest relief in Nelles etars.
My heart is by u doubt oppressed,
My heart Is but q vane that veers;
1t knows not which It loves the best
Sweet Edith's smiles or Nellie's tears.

Trace, I'll try it. II the extry's a
heavy one I'll make II all right; but for
your sake I'd try it il it was the cannon
ball express. Stay right where you
are. If she stops here, hop on quick; if
she don't stop here you may know it
amt my fault. God bless you!"
He started down the track in clumsy
run towards the approaching train.
He knew the track well, and he paused
when had reached the head of long
grade UP which No. 16 was now making
its way. It was by no means a steep
grade, but 1t was about as steep as any
on this part of the Denver. Then he
stepped to one side of the track.
81 guess she'll be goin' about as slow
here as anywheres, he muttered Then
he steadied himself for the spring.
Grace was standing by the deserted
section house watching the approach
ing train with o heart that almost stood
still as she watched The train was
only short one, and No. 16 thundered
by 1t at the top of it's speed. Ben Stilles
was in the cab, but he little thought
that the girl he loved was standing
there in the darkness and the wind as
he passed. Perhaps he thought Of Dan,
but If so it only caused him to increase
his speed. After the train passed, Grace
waited awhile for Dan; but no Dan
came.
"Dan!" she screamed.
No answer.
DAM"
Perhaps he heard her voice as it was
borne on the wings of the bowling
norther; perhaps, on the other hand
he was then listening to such sounds
as would render his ears forever insen-
sible TO the bowling of the night winds,
the cries of distressed women and al!
earthly sounds whatever.
All that night Grace faced the north
wind as she walked down the long
stretch of track, leading away from her
home. Perhaps the whistling of the
wind and the yelping of an occasional
coyote filed her with dread; perhaps
her own thoughts so occupied her that
she had neither eyes nor ears for any
thing outside. only know that early
the next morning she reached the little
station next above the Chicken and
Bread town. She was half frozen to
death; but the next day she took the
train to Fort Worth. There she met
Ben, and the two were married. Ben
gave up his run, and the two are said
to have gone north to escape the fury OF
Bill Stikes. Where they are now no one
In the Chicken and Bread town seems to
know-or care.
Dams mangled body was found by
the section crew of which he had been
q member. The boss expressed himself
as wondering why in thunder an old
