OIL RESERVOIR Ar NEEDLES.
Considered Dangerous to Use Tanks in
Santa Fe Yards There.

Santa Fe engineers are at Needles,
Cal, this week making surveys for the
purpose of drawing plans for a new oil
reservoir, which will have a capacity
of fifty thousand barrels. It is proposed
to locate this reservoir at a sufficient
distance west of the city so as to give
it gravity delivery to the shops and
engine supply tanks in the yards.
At the present time the oil needed for
the engines on this division is stored in
tanks in the yards and It is considered
that this is dangerous because of the
great quantity of sparks from engines
which are continually flying about.

Leola shook her head, YEARLY
NO." she said.
NO" he repeated. That's strange.
Did she never say anything about her
brothei--Godfrey Lorme?"
Leola thought a moment-she was
weak and faint, and memory is not
over bright under such circumstances.
Il think" she said, Il have heard
her speak of him."
"Ah." said the old gentleman, with
interest, of course you have-but
about these music lessons, Miss Dale, .
and he broke off with sudden cautious
ness. Would you give my daughter
a lesson?"
Yes" said Leola, Eat once!"
Eyes. yes. Well" and he suddenly
branehed off again, and she spoke of
Godfrey Lorme? Tell me what you
know of him.
He was her brother, think said
I.eola, jouhtfully.
He was" said the old gentleman
He was her brother. Did she tell
you he was a rich man?"
Yes" said Leola. 4 remember
something about him. but long before
she died she did not speak of him.
Dear me-" he said, thoughtfully
watching the girls face, that was
strange. Well, you ought to know
something about your relations. Well
| knew him, too, Miss Dale, l know
a great deal about your family.
"Yes?" said Leola. She was very
weak-she was very hungry, and she
wanted to know more about the music

Il have the pleasure of speaking to
Miss Dale-Miss Leola Dale?" he said.
Leola fixed her dark eyes on him
That is my name" she said, trying
to speak calmly and composedly.
The old gentleman nodded.
The daughter of Mrs. Honoria Dale
Perhaps ought to ask for her"
He stopped, seeing the sudden
witch of the girls exquisitely-
formed lip, and looked at her black
dress.
Il beg your pardon" he said,
hurriedly Your mother is
Dead" said Leola, keeping back
her tears bravely. She died two
months ago"
Yes. yes" he said, quietly and gen.
tly. Il ought not to have asked.
And you-you are her only daughter
her only child?"
Leola made a gesture of assent.
The old gentleman wiped his spec
tacles, and looked at the plano.
You teach music, l think?"
Leola looked up quickly, not hope
fully, but with a sudden interest.
yes" she said; Il teach music
playing and singing"
Yes, yes" he said again.
"And have you-excuse me-have
you many pupils?"
Leola shook her head.
Il have none now," she said.
Dear me-" he said, below his
breath; and he was silent moment,
looking at the piano as ii he We're try
ing to think Of what to say next. And
that good woman was the landlady,

Yes" said Leola.
"She seemed very much distressed"
said the old gentleman.
Leola moved her head
Eyes; she-we are in great dis
tress."
Good heavens!" exclaimed the old
gentleman, staring straight before
him, as if some thought had over
whelmed him. "You-are-very much
distressed? Do you mean fer money!"
Leola smiled sadly.
Yes" she said; for money. Her
rent-my RENTS due-overdue; her
landlord threatens to turn her out of
doors, and this is all we have and
she held out the penny.
The old gentleman stared as if he
could not believe his ears, then held
out his hand.

that penny?'
1t was a strange request. Leola
held It out to him. He took it and
put it carefully into his waistcoat
pocket Then he said:
And you teach music. Do you mind
well, think l could find you some
employment. Now, as to character?"
Il have none" said Leola, with a
