LOVED SWEET PEDAGoGUE
School Teacher Resigns Because Two
of Her Boys Fought for Her.

Big Timber, April 4.-Because two
OF her biggest pupils fought a des-
relate battle over her, Miss Luella
Morrissey, a pretty teacher at Howie,
in the eastern end of the county,
has resigned her position.
The boys. as near as can be learn
ed, are Robert Williams and Dan
Frankel, each about 19 years of age.
Both had been smitten with the
charms of the pretty teacher, who, if
she were aware of the feelings of the
boys, gave no sign.
A few days ago she kept Williams
after school, for some trivial offense
When he left the place Frankel was
in waiting, and accused him of hav
ing been making love to the teacher
Hot words followed, and in less
time than it takes to tell it, the two
young men were mixing II in fierce
style. Guns were barred, according
to all accounts, fists alone being
used. For half an hour or more the
battle ragged, both men being badly
pounded.
It is claimed that the teacher was
attracted by the sounds of the con
flict and succeeded in forcing The
fighters apart, after which she in
formed them that she cared nothing
for either of them.
Efforts were made to keep th'
trouble a secret, but it became pub
lie property at last, and then th'
teacher resigned, leaving the schoo
without teacher
Miss Morrissey has left the neigh
borhood, and, it is said, has gon
east, where her home is.

They Are Needed In City and Country by
the Youth Of the

Success.
If young people, especially in small
towns, would form courtesy clubs" or
graft this idea upon existing sorganiza-
lions, it would result In great advantage
not only to the young people belonging to
such associations, but also to the towns
themselves.
i We find a great many men and women
side tracked all along the pathways Of life
because they were not taught the value Of
good manners and of a fine, gracious cour-
tesy In their youth. The result is that
they have grown up hard and coarse and
repulsive in manner and have not been
able to win favor or attract trade or bust
ness. In other words their bad manners
and repulsive ways have kept them back
and handicapped their careers.
It is astonishing how fine manners and
politeness in children develop into ease
and attractiyeness in manhood and wo-
manhood. Other things being equal the
employee who is selected for advancement
is the one with good manners, a fine,
gracious demeanor, a good presence; these
qualities are the best kind of capital, even
better than money. 49, s..
Everywhere we see young men and
young women drawing big salaries be-
cause of their superior politeness The
fine hammered are wanted everywhere as
superintendent, as statesmen, as travelling
representatives, as clerks, as private sec
retaries or as credit men. In fact, agree
able department is the one indispensable
quality sought after everywhere.
There is nothing else which will so
quickly open the door to opportunities, to
society. to the hearts Of ALL Sd
Courtesy is to business and society what
oil is to machinery. 1t makes things run
smoothly, for 1t eliminates the jar and the
friction and the nerve-raeking noise.

THE CRIME OF THE MOMENT.

p
Clinton Rogers Woodruff thinks the
most amusing thing about renegade poll
tics is the calmness with which a great
party will take in a notorious deserter.
He says all that is necessary for man
who has devoted his life, to belittling a
faction to do is to give assurance that he
will vote with that faction in the next
election. He compares the proceedings to
the attitude Of fine old Scot whose opin-
ion on religious matters was regarded. as
weighty by his neighbors and who was
generally consulted on all questions OF
moral right and wrong. He had been
troubled greatly by the depredations OF
COWS and pigs turned out to Craze by
landIess owners, and which found their
way quickly through open gates to the
dainty vegetables raised in gardens He
was repairing a ravaged cerner in his
garden one afternoon when he was visited
and accosted by a farmland of the viciu-
ity. The latter told g. long tale OF mis-
doing and then asked:
Now, Sandy, be a sinful man." I'm
