SUCCESS IN FICTION.

The Heat Writers Are Those Who Re-
gard 1t as Their Chief Mission.
Mr.. James Bryce. who has achieved
fame as an essayist on economic prob
lens and as a political analyst. con-
templates devoting his pen to fiction.
says a writer in the st. Louis Republic.
II is not stated whether his motive is
amusementpr profit. Perhaps 1t is a
mixture f0oth. II he achieves pop
ular applause, he will disclose n YER
satility unsuspected by those who have
serious lines OF literature. 1t appears
that nearly all literary men at some
time in their lives have been attracted
toward the task OF making novels.
The tuneful and witty DIR. Holmes
yielded to the temptation, and Lowell
was credited with a strong hankering.
The erudite and didactic George Will
lam Curtis wrote one novel. and
showed the possession OF conscien-
tious regard for the reading public by
not repeating the offcnse. Bayard
Taylor also invaded the field with
much promise OF success. but wisely
concluded that the novelistS' vocation
did not fit his talents. There have
been several noted writers OF English
who might have proved shining sue
cesses as novelists. Among them
might be classed the brilliant and
meteoric Macaulay. whose thrilling
prose and inspiring verse indicate the
possession OF those qualities OF narra-
ton and Imagination which are per-
haps the most effective weapons in the
armory OF the novel writer. Yet,
Macaulay's luster as a historian was
20 great that he might have dimmed
1t by essaying fiction. Froude. who
was master OF prose, failed in the do
main OF novel writing. The general
consensus OF critics seems TO be that.
while the novelist's faculty is not al
together denied to men sreat In other
departments of literature. Its best re-
wards come to those who feel II to be
their chief mission.

A GIRLS STRATAGEM.

"Kate." said Levia winslow, looking
hals-dehantly at her cousin. II won't
stand papa1 opposition to Harry any
longer. You know Harry Is q perfect
gentleman, honorable and industrious.
and It u only because he is compare
lively poor that papa objects to my
marrying him"
But what can you do. Ievia! Your
father is ~ determined that you and
Harry shall not marry ~ you seem to
be contrary-minded." Kate Winslow
said. smiling At her cousins desperate
air. Levia came closer and whispered
In Kates ear:
We're going to elope! And you
must help us-won't you. dear?"
Don't, darling: don't think OF such
= thing. Wait and try persuasion with
your father. When he nnds 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.

and everything else until I'm tired.
and l promised Harry last night that
you and would 90 to Louisville Thurs
day ON the morning train. He and
Phil Lee will get on at La Grange and
We will 90 over to Jeffersonville and
get that famous squire to marry us.
Then Harry and l will begin life to-
sether on his little farm and be happy
ever afterward," she ended. with de-
lighted laugh.
Kate argued with her for some time,
but finding that her cousin had fully
determined upon the elopement she at
last gave q reluctant assent to accom-
pany her, hoping that all would be for
the best.
Had 1t not been that she knew that
Harry Carroll was all that Levia fondly
pictured him. she would never have
consented: but she knew that 1t was
only lack OF riches In the suitor
which caused Judge Winslow's objec-
ton to the match. and she believed
that Harry would make her cousin
happier than any one whom the Judge
might choose.
The plan worked smoothly. and
Thursday, at noon. two young men. ac-
companied by two charming, pretty
girls. stepped on the train at the Louis
Vile L Nashville depot In Louisville.
As they did 30 they noticed police
man among the crowd. holding tele-
gram In his hand. When he saw the
little group he started toward them.

Flos,d Sufferers In Texas,

The Brazos valley flood is the most
damaging overflow that has occurred in
this state during the last half century.
In width the waters extended upon an
average fully ten miles along the en-
tire distance, and In length ut least
three hundred and fifty miles. They
spared nothing In their destructive
course. Dwelling houses and barns
upon the river bank, horses. mules cat
tie. hogs and crops OF all kinds have
been swept away. The greatest suf-
fcrcrs have been those who Till the
fields. Only a few OF them are owners
of land. They are either renters or EN-
ploycs OF the farm owners. working
either for daily wages or for an inter
est In the prospective yield. As rule.
they are very poor-entircly dependent
upon their labor for support. The
crops ten days ago were In splendid
condition and gave promise OF n most
bountiful harvest. equal to the best
that has been realized for many years.

carry out their plans. Now. uncle. be
angry II you want to. but be angry
with me. and do not destroy Levia's
happiness by uttering words you will
some day repent"
The Judge was 20 astonished At
Kate's stratagem that he cooled down =
little and she took advantage OF this
to plead powerfully for the young
couple. pointing out the good points
In Harry's character. and depicting the
love he bore for Levia 20 skillfully that
Judge Winston finally said

have made me suspend Judgment upon
these young culprits. and will punish
Levia only by receiving you into the.
place she formerly occupied in my
heart"
Kate smiled happily as she prepared
to return home with her uncle, for she
well knew that no human being could
ever take the place in his affections
which belonged to his only child And
she was correct In her judgment. for
her uncle allowed his natural generosi-
ty to triumph over his offended pride
and received Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Car
roll kindlys when they came the next
day to beg for his forgiveness. Kate.
who insisted that she was the real cul-
prit. was as freely forgiven on condi-
tion that she would take part In no
more elopements.

said one who Is at present high rail-
road ofncial. 81 did once. and never
again. 1t happened In Denver In 1852.
I was broke. I had Just come out Of
the hospital after . long tussls with
pneumonia and was unable to do
manual labor. which was the only
thing I could hnd. One afternoon.
when things were at their very worst.
] was sitting in the old Charpiot hotel
and overheard two men talking very
secretly about . big strike in some
mine. inferred from their conversa-
tion that 1t was somewhere in the San
Juan district. but they didn't mention
the exact location or the name of the
property. When they went out
noticed 4 tiny piece of ore laying on
one Of the chairs. where 1t had EVIL
IDENTIFY been dropped while they were
examining some specimens. It was
brown quartz. literally full Of gold. 1t
was ore that made a fellows heart
jump Just to look at 1t. and while
was turning 1t between my fingers 1t
all Of . sudden flashed into my mind
that 1t must have come from the Lady
Alice. They had taken stun from 1t
once. but the vein had pinched OUT
and the property was supposed to be
N. G. Its stock had dropped to moth
ing. OF course. 1t was only a guess"
continued the speaker, land there were
several hundred chances that It wasn't
the Alice at all. did some quick
thinking. There was a banker up town
who owned lot Of Alice stock. and In
two minutes l was on my way to his

finally got into his den. I have in

the messenger. and he was then on his
way to deliver bundle OF Alice stock
for which the banker had Just been
offered a couple OF hundred dollars.
He had thought 1t a good trade until
he saw my ore. Smith came back and
the banker tried his best to pump me.
but wouldn't tell him any more. II
he had known was only guessing he
would have kicked me out, but the
fates were with me. The next day the
news Of the discovery got to the pub

stock went scooting skyward. Mean
while the fellows in on the secret had

10 was Done when His Hrisnds Wsrs
Not Lsehiag.
It isn't right to spoil . good dsh
story. but 1t is Just al well to tell the
truth about such things once In awhile.
At the recent outing Of the McFarlane
Hunting and Fishing Club at Penetan-
Guishine. Can. the prize for the larg-
est one-day catch OF fsh was awarded
to Philip 8. Finn. says the Pittsburg
News. Since the members Of the club
came back to Philadelphia they have
heard rumors that there was some
thing wrong about his phenomenal
catch-twenty- eight large bass. not to
speak OF a number OF other hsh that
were not counted. This is really how
II happened: The club occupied a
large boathouse. On an island half
mile away their guides lived. On the
return OF u member from a days nsh-
ing the guide first rowed him to the
boathouse. where the fish he had
caught were counted. weighed and
scored. Then the guide took the fish
to the island to be cleaned. Mr.. Finn
was out one day and he had nothing
but hard luck. He had only two small
fish on his string when the sun began
to sink. He waited until all OF the
other boats were In and their fsh
counted and taken to the guides
island. Then he ordered his guide to
row him to the windward Of the island
where they would be hidden from view
Of those at the boathouse. He landed
there and going to the quarters Of the
guides he picked out all Of the big hsh
that had been caught by the other
ciubnen that day and put them on his
string. He and the guide then made a
wide sweep In the boat and approached
the boathousc from the lceward.
There was u commot!on when the fish
he brought were counted and weighed.
Everybody wanted to know where he
go, them. Some accused him of nnd-
ing good nshing grounds and keeping
the location TO himself. He con
fesaed" at last that he had caught
them up nj the old wreck" The mex,
day every member Of the club had 4
line or two In the water at that point
hut they didn't catch anything worth
mentioning.
