Sucu Hcr lrOm u6T perhouS pOSitioH, I, but also the soul of the woman itself l Their eyes met; there was that quick, magnetic glance and that thrill of mag netic joy by which one affinity reeog- nizes the other. They fell into each others arms, as if by mutual attraction, and imprinted long, loud kisses upon each others magnetic lips, greatly to the astonish ment of the motley crowd that gathered around them and who had no idea that it was possible for two sffinities to wander, not cnly over the face of this little planet we call the earth, in search of each other, but also over the entire disc Of this great mag netie universe in a higher form of spir- itud life, not only for one or two or a dozen years, but for thousa nds or mil lions of them.
 Biear-eyed Boo had had aa experi- ence somewhat similar to that of Sally Jane Simkins.
 He, too, had been disappointed in love and grown sick and weary of
 WHAT IS KNOWN AS SOCIETY
 in the 400 circles. His magnetic, sensi- tive nature realized how utterly hollow it all was.
 He left home of luxury and large circle of acquaintances to join scien- tific society, and soon made one of a party that went to Egypt to explore tue pyramids. He was the only son and only heir of Count cumberford, one of the most renowned and wealthy noblemen of all England. He left Eng land confirmed woman hater, yet feeling that he would at some time find his affinity, if not on this planet, at least somewhere in this great universe.
 He went to India and studied the beauties of theosophy. He fully be- lieved in the reincarnation of souls, and in Ravena, in progression, and that man had powers within himself to ad- vance spiritually on this earth, so that he would come in touch with higher order of invisible intelligence while his spirit was still fettered by his body and its earthly surroundings.
 Some invisible force impelled him to wander to Arizona. He had reached tha silver King just three months be fore Sally Jane Sinklns, aud on the same day the astrologsr had told her fortune, and, disgnising himself as miner, was given employment b5 Hon. sidney Bartleson, who was then tAe superintendent.
 The second day premature discharg. of powder nearly ruiued his eyes, and from that day on he was known al Blear-eyed Bob. The men he killed were nearly all cowardly desperadoes professional holy tewors, who had drifted to the Silver King from Tomb. stone and other hard camps. They made sport of Blear-eyed Bob, and when in toxicated had fourished their six shooters over his head and took delighi in showing their true marksmanshiE by shooting holes through his hat, hi coat sleeves and his trousers legs unti he was compelled in self-defense to roo out such tough element.
 Bill Truman was then the sheriff o Pinal county, and more popular mal never trod the thorny deserts or en countered tougher men than he did He was man and gentleman, every inch of him, and possessed of cool ness and rare discriminating power which served well on that eventfu night.
 Mr. Truman has long since passet over to that spiritual realm of life an, intelligence-gone to seek his affinit there! But his many daring deeds an noble acts are cherished and engrave' iu lattefs of gold apon the tablets Q the memories of those who survive him
 After a speech of burning elo4aenc by Mr. Truman, the disappointed log CTS of sally Jane simkins decided t spare the life of Blear-eyed Bob. Som of them made this maguanimous con cession rather reluctantly, as jealousy that hideous, green-eyed monster, wa asserting himself very strongly. Tn better part of their rough natures however, finally prevailed, and thei congratulations were unanimous, afte
 which they adjourned to Hilarity Hal to make night of it.
 The next morning the happy afini ties were escorted to Florence, wher tue marriage ceremony was performe by the pastor of the Presbyteria church, and a grand reception wa given them at the palatial residence (
 Judge Sniffen, which was attended b
 nearly all the elite and many of tn edarks of the beautiful little city Nj c. D. Reppy being master of ceremf
 nies on the occasion, and presiding 6 gracefully as in competing in the cak walks of the present day.
 A few days after the wedding a tel gram came to Florence from Londo
