when he read it and then began pac-
ing the floor. George Coles found
him still pacing up and down, half an
hour later, when he was on his way to
supper. He had stopped in for a few
minutes chat. He liked to talk to
Jack, but when he saw Jacks face
this afternoon he was sorry that he
had stopped. He was in too good a
humor to go to funeral.
Hello, what's the trouble, Jack?
Clients not coming fast enough to suit
you?"
'No-worse than that. Read that"
as he showed the note across the ta-
BILE to George. Internal clients can't
worry you like that" George was his
general manager when it came to
things concerning the heart. George
relit his cigar as he read the note the

stances become emmeshed in a train
OF evidence and are convicted and
sentenced for a crime which they never
committed. In fact, sympathy is our
strong point.
we have not, however, a particle of
OF sympathy for these men over whom
the state press is soldering. In the
first place, Notwithstanding all the
new evidence that has come to light,
we think it more than an even chance
that they were concerned in the train
robbery. If they were not they were
taken loaded down with guns, burden
ed with high explosives, and carrying
the most modern and scientific burg
lars kits. 1t was plainly manifest
that they were planning some desperate
robbery, and stood ready to go to any
extreme to accomplish their purpose,
and were prepared to shoot down any
one who interfered with their nefarious
proceedings. Seven years is not too
long time to confine men caught in
the condition of these scoundrels.
They may not have committed the
train robbery for which they were con-
victed, but they only got what was
coming to them.

LAKE TAHOE.

One of the most beautiful lakes in
the world lies in the heart of the
Sierras on "The Overland Route, -
6,22O feet above the sea level, and is
completely hemmed in by mountain
walls, whose rugged peaks rise in
many places to an additional height
of from 1900 to 1000 feet. 1t is
twenty-three miles wide and from loo
to 1900 feet deep. The entire region
surrounding the lake is picturesque
almost beyond description, and a
never ending delight to the eye. This
region is reached only over the Union
Pacific and it's connections, the fast
trains via this route reach California
many hours ahead of all competitors.

I'll buy the negative and break it."
"And are you going to give up?"
Not if know myself" And they
walked on up town together.
Wiley was very busy the next morn
ing when there was a knock on the
door and Maud Clark walked in.
"Mr. Wiley" she began, and Wiley
might have expected a proposal from
the blush which accompanied it,

Mr.-Croyleston and me the other
day."

Gould I get it, please. l want to

to look composed.

said the kind photographer as he
went back into the work rooms of his
studio.

rap at the door and Jack Croyleston
walked in.

he saw who the other occupant of the
room was.
Certainly" was the cool reply.
Wiley was gone longer than Maud
had expected. She was having hard
time trying to keep her eyes off of
Jack. He was seated in the far end
of the room and was pretending to be
very deeply interested in his morning
paper.
"Oh, wish he would hurry up with

"Oh, how could you, Jack-Mr.

"How, could I what?"
'Why-break it." And Jack could
stand it no longer.
Maud, let's not break it at all. I'm
sorry"
''No, Jack, was foolish. And Jack

handed him a proof.

1T JUST HAPPENED
BY H. G. TILLMAN

oh! 1 wish we never had thought
Of having that old picture taken
Maud Clark was in real distress as
she said this and threw herself down
on the comfortable old sofa and fin
ished the cry which she had begun
when she had sent Jack the note.
She was very miserable and very
proud.
"The mean, hateful thing. Just as
though he could make me do any
thing"
There was no doubt that she was
very mad or-pretended to be. She
arose and walked over to her win
dow. The lights and the ever-passing
crowd would at least attract her mind
from the hateful picture and the more
hateful things that it had brought.
But it was not so easy to forget, and
she realized that che was no longer
the child that lights and passing
crowds used to amuse. This was her
first trouble and she felt very mis-
erable. But still she was proud-very
proud.
There are plenty of men," she
mused in half-conscious way, as she
turned and walked back to the sofa.
Just then her eye chanced to fall on
the picture of Jack that had hung in
| the place of extreme prominence over
her mantle for over two years. He
was so good looking and had such an
elegant expression that anyone would
have liked him. She was sure Of
| that Their love had been a rather
peculiar one. He was very poor and
she was very rich and pride had them
waiting for him to make a little
money before they married. Her
parents had never objected in the
least and in fact they were in favor
of the match Until three days ago
they had been getting along so
smoothly, and just as they had about
determined not to wait any longer the
crash came, and all about a little pic
ture How she hated that picture.
Jack had proposed trip down the
river, and just as they were returning
| in the happieSt OF moods they met
Wiley, the photographer, on search
for pretty views, and the idea entered
their heads to have the picture of
both made as they drifted down the
river. 1t was beautiful, sentimental
idea, but as Maud sat and looked at
the picture over the mantle she hated
herself for ever going near the old
river. Her mind ran quickly over the
| events of the day, and she wondered
If she had done the right thing. She
| was sure she had, for even he had no
right to tell her that she should not
show the picture to her parents. Per-
| haps he was right in not wishing it
shown, but he had gone little too
| far-he had assumed little too much
authority. He had forgotten that be-
fore marriage Man prays and Wo-
man plays" After satisfying herself
that she had done the right thing, she
bundled up all of his notes and the
picture over the mantle and addressed
them to Jack Croyleston-being care
full in the little note she enclosed to

she began crying again.

She thought and thought and finally
decided that the best and the only
thing to do was to purchase the mega
tive and break it. Having decided
this, she cried herself to sleep. It
was her first trouble. She was so
miserable and so proud.

FEAR AN AWFUL ENEMY OF
LIFE.

Have you ever thought what a
destructive weapon fear is? Last
week an eminent operator of ap-
pendicitis himself died of the
disease of which he was an expert
Not long since in this city an au-
thority on germs and bacteria died
of typhoid diptheria, which had its
genesis in microbes and germs
Still more recently an expert in
nervous diseases died of nervous
brain affection and coupled with
these cases mentioned, the papers
this week tell us of the death of
General Trepoff, the cruel and
heartless tyrant of the Car of
Russia, of whom it was predicted
he would be killed in his own bed
and who, though "a terrorist to
others, died of fright for his own
life, which leads us to observe that
those active in given occupation
and expert in certain procedures,
themselves succumb to the force of
things they most fear for others.
Another instance of the working
of this law was in the death of a
chemist engaged in the invention
of new and fearful destructive
to be used in war that would be
more destructive than dynamite,
gun cotton and nitroglyserine put
together, yet he was blown to
atoms by his new force on the very
eve of its perfection. He feared
beforehand that he would be the
first victim and his fears became
true. How many people mortally
fear tuberculosis and die of the
very disease they so much feared :?
Fear is more potent than the as
sassins knife. Fear smallpox and
your fear will come upon you. 1t
