Saving n Fib.

A certain young woman had been
devoting her evenings to entertaining a
bashful admirer. He seemed to be
deeply in love, but he evidently didn't
dare to propose.
One evening while he was calling an
other young gentleman rang the bell.
The pretty girl was embarrassed and
looked to the bashful youth for help.
"Tell him you're engaged" the bash
full one said.
Delighted, the girl made haste to an
swer. "But I don't want to tell him an
untruth"
"well, you tell him that, and We'll fix
1t afterward," the bashful one stam-
mered.
And before be went that night the

Expostulations proved unavailing.
and in the little known village of st.
Leger. between Vevey and BlOnay,
there were at least two sad hearts
Yvette's and her blue eyed lover
Thomas. That evening they stood to-
cether gazing sadly at the house pic

neither pride nor interest in the re-
markable drawings with which NJ.
Alfred Begun is good enough to deco
rate his neighbOrs' dwellings, for st.
Leger is probably the one illustrated
village in the world, and tourists, those
few who know of it, study the village
as one might the pages of a magazine.
Yvette for the first time in her life
seemed even irritated by them.

cious click of her pretty white teeth,

1t must be confessed that even the
gloomy Thomas was moved to some
return of cheer by the gracious pres

spirited design on the wall near them.

Press association, and will probably
get it. But what's the matter with
Mitchell?
There is certainly nothing the mat
ter with Mitchell SO far as Mitchell's
wishes are concerned. It would give
the city great pleasure to entertain
the newspaper men this winter, and
an invitation to that effect would
long ago have been sent by the Com
merCial Club had it not been gener-
ally knO"n that NcrlDilliOn at least
had d pIiUI claim. Then, an invita-
tiOn from Mitchell might have been
wrongly construed by certain inter
ests-ldkcn as a bid for SuppOIt in
the capital contest. etc. At some
future time, when an invitation from
Mitchell cannot be wrongly interpret
ed the South Dakota Press Assoc!a-
ton will not only be invited but will
undoubtedly accept Of the invitation
and the city Will have an OppOrtunity
OF repayiug the many compliments
bestowed upon it by The press Of the
state.

GENERATOR BURNS OUT.

Time of Day.

For two hours Wednesday evening,
or from about 6 to O'CLOCK, not a
car on the lines of the Citizens Light
and Transit company moved. At the
power house one of the big generators
had burned out. and the line was COM
pletely tied up thereby.
The accident came at the perlod OF
TIE day when the cars are in the
greatest demand. The summer thea
ter patrons were without means to
get to the park and many otner pat
rons of the line who, on cool evenings,
take a spin on one of the lines, were
disappointed and the loss to the street
car company was considerable. About
8 o'clock the damage at the power
house was remedied and the cars again
moved but the evening patronage to
the park and elsewhere was trifiing.
The cars were scattered indiscrlml-
ratolv over the lines and the accident
caused great inconvenience TO the
batrons and a loss to the street car
company and park management.
