Vancouver and good for a passage to

well enough until Mr.. Tourist arriV-

the denouement occurred. The
ticket had been sold to him by the
originating line via Fort Worth and
the Trinity and BraZos Valley rail
road to Houston Now the fact Is
that there is long gap missing in
the line Of the Boil Weevll route, and
the passenger did not feel like walk

to recite at the evening class formed
by Charles A. Dana. when, seeing
Hawthorne sitting immovable and sol.
itary on the sofa, she daringly thrust
the book in his hands.
will you hear me say my poetry,
Mr.. Hawthorne?" said.
He gave me sidelong glance from
his very shy eyes, took the book and
most kindly heard me. After that he
was on the sofa every week to hear
me recite.
One evening he was alone in the
hall, sitting on chair at the farther
end, when my roommate and I were
going upstairs. She whispered to me:
Lets throw sofa pillow at Mr..
Hawthorne"
Reaching over the banisters, we
each took a pillow and threw It,
Quick as a flash he put out his hand,
seized broom that was hanging near
him, warded off our cushions and
threw them back with sure aim. AS
fast as we could throw them he re.
turned them with effect, hitting us
every time, while we could only hit
the broom. He must have been very
quick in his movements.
Through 1t all not word was spok.

eyes shone and twinkled like stars,
until we went off to bed vanquished.
