A SPANISH SHORT STORY.

One day it fell out that the Senorita
Guadalupe was called in to take an
order from Mrs. Brian O'Hara, that
lofty lady of the mighty girth, whose
mansion crowns conspicuous hilltop
and whose name is rolled with obse-
quious respect upon the city's tongue.
Mrs. O'Hara unfolded the linen and
could go no further, for neither had
the language of the other. The inter-
view would have to come to nothing
If Mrs. O'Hara had not bethought her
that her son Tom was somewhere in
the house, and that Tom, who had
once been sent down to Mexico to be
kept out of mischief in San Francisco,
had there, in the desperation of his
ennui, learned Spanish. Tom was sent
for. He came reluctaptly-a robust,
well-groomed, heavy-featured young
man in costly, smooth-setting raj
ment. He was trifie out of temper at
the summons, but when he saw the
finest dark eyes he had looked into
since he sailed from Mazatlan he be-
came at once polite and smilingly
alert. Those velvet eyes, shot with the
CLEAN of sleeping fires, caused a sud
den, soft agitation in the heart of
Thomas O'HIara, heart heretofore
stranger to such sensations of dis
tressful sweetness. That was the be-
ginning of it. Tom O'Hara carried
several orders for his mamma to the
house at North Beach, where, in
dingy upstairs room, the senorita and
Pamela bent over the lengths of linen
weaving their delicate webs. When
his mammals orders came to an end,
Mr.. O'Hara dissembled darkly and
took orders from fictitious characters
which he created and elaborated with
the skill and cunning of an embryo
novelist.-Geraldine Bonner in Lip
