story About Mark Twain.

Senator Stewart, of Nevada, tells a
story of Mark Twain's youthful days
as a reporter in Carson City. 1t was
his duty one evening to report a meet
ing of the city council, whose president
was ponderous statesman given to
sounding words and intellectual con-
fusion. A motion was made to ex-
punge from the records a certain mat,
ter which the presiding officer was ex-
tremely anxious should not become
part of local history. The motion, hav-
ing been seconded, was eagerly passed.
"The matter has been ordered ex-
Plunged" declared the presiding coun-
Gilman gravely, "and the clerk will
prooeed-to expunge. 1t should be eff
fectively wiped out, obliterated and
totally destroyed" He paused to no.

gathered a sweetness which provoked
kisses; it had the clean polish of a
flower petal. She was so good and so
happy, so busy learning how to man
age the affairs of dslly living. and SO
glad to draw her breath, that every
body said, "She is growing pretty!
Whoever imagined that little weakened
Spaniard would turn out like this?"
Antywine and Lincoln were away I'M
ox-wagon from thewest into New Salem
one evening at sunset, and drew up at
the vacant cabin which Antywine in
tended to make his own. 1t stood
waiting for him in primitive security.
The oX-wagon carried a squat, low
chest of drawers, evidently bought
at secondhand, but bright and rosy
through its old mahogany surface, and
Antywine's first housekeeping invest
ment. Lincoln helped him unload II,
and they set it on the sward befo, e
the cabin door.
II lift him into the house myself"
said Antywine. So Lincoln drove the
borrowed cattle on, knowing he was
welcome to put them into anybody's
pasture until he and his chain bearer
returned them.
Antywine opened the door of the
playhouse he was intending to make
for Peggy. Though the sensitive part
of him, which Peggy said was like a
woman, quivered with delight, he had
free, bold spirit, ready to dare any,
thing. On long tramps and rides and
through days of mechanical labor with
master mind he had been coming
to his own as man.
There's mighty difference" Lin
coin once said to him, between study

and studying with your eyes open clear

AntyHine saw that new oiled paper

beaten windows, over which Peggy
would hang short white curtains, per-
haps like those that could be showed
apart on strings at the tavern. He
selected the corner for his chest of
drawers, and was silently calculating
how long it would take to turn out
chairs and tables at the cooper's shop,
when the smell of cob pipe made
him shut the door to keep Sally from
looking into his house. Sally had come
up behind him and was examining tho
chest of drawers. In earlier days, be-
fore beard grew upon her face, or
avarice and vindictiveness hewed it,
her piercing black eyes may have been
admired. She fixed them on Antywine.
He touched his cap with the courtesy
his father had taught him to show all
women, and said, Good day. Sally"
He heard Lincoln's gee-hawing to the
oxen turn to "W'oa. Buck!" and saw
that Sticky Green and young Yates
had come down the road to meet the
surveyor.
Have you heard about Peggy's
death?" inquired Sally.
'Her death?" Antywine repeated.
Eyes, She was buried week ago"

The foreigners olive skin, chilled
by the cold from which he had Just
entered, took a swift greenish pallor.
He stepped forward kissing, and
snapped his fingers in Lincoln's face.
Antywine was upon him like a tiger
dragging him to the door, throwing
him out into the snow, and shooting
the bolt behind him.
