in Kats's ear:
We're going to elope. And you
must help us--won't you, dear9"
Don't, darling; don't think Of such
a thing. Wait and try persuasion with
your father When he finds out that
your heart is really set on Harry he
surely will relent." pleaded Kate ear
nestly, for she knew how hot-headed
her Kentucky uncle was and feared the
result of an elopement
"Pshawi Kate. I've tried persuasion
and everything else until I'm tired,

you and l would go to Louisville Thurs

Had It not been that she knew that
Harry Carroll was all that Leyia fondly
pictured him. she would never have
consented; but she knew that 1t was
only a lack OF riches in the suitor
which caused Judge wiuslow's objee-
tion to the match. and she believed

might choose.
The plan worked smoothly. and
Thursday. at noon. two young men. ac-

At these words Kate sprang forward
and, throwing her arms around Harry's
neck, regardless OF spectators, ex-
claimed: You shan't take me away
from him, How dare you interfere!"
Still clinging to Harry she turned on
the officer with flashing eyes and

story and a half building. The building
Is occupied as a small hotel and boarding

attic was filled with them as they were

made basty retreat as loon as the water
reached them from the hose. A high

firemen worked hard and In a short time
the fire was under control. The all out
