A Marriage by Proxy

In one Of the mills Of The B. manu-
factory worked a girl named Daisy
Daisy was entered by surname on the
rolls Of the company, but it was fle-
ttious, for she was 3 waif, and II Is
doubtful II she was even entitled to be
sailed Daisy. There was something
well bred about her that led people to
suspect that she had been born in high
life. but IL this was so the fact was
never proved. She was very pretty
girl, barely sixteen, though she might
have passed for much older. Every
body liked Daisy and said what pity
1t was that she should have to work for
her living, for her delicate physique
made it very hard for her.
There were two young men in the
company's employ who, unknown to
each other, cast longing eyes on Daisy.
These were Enoch Devlin, thirty five
years old, and Philip Bowers. about
twenty.three. Deylin had been with
the concern since he was fifteen and
considered himself entitled to any re-
sponsible berth with a good income at

When, therefore, one morning it was
announced that Phil Bowers was to be
placed in charge Of the eempany's in
terests In South America. residing at
Rio de Jsneiro. Enoch was green with
envy. However, be smothered his
wrath and congratulated Phil with
every appearance OF sincerity. Phil.
who was modest fellow and much
surprised at bis advance, knowing that
Enoch stood above him Ia the line Of
promotion, was much touched with the
good wishes he expressed.
There was happy factory girl that
evening when Phil Bowers called upon
Daisy and asked her to go with him
TO South America as his wife, There
WAS no time for preparation, for Phil
was ordered to start for his new field

mination to send him had arisen from
complications that needed to he
Strengthened out at once.
Daisy spent half an hour before 70.
ing TO bed packing her meager effects
and was ready TO be married any time
the next day. As soon as Phil could
spare a moment from business prep
arations he hurried to the city offices
TO get marriage license. He was re-
fused without the consent OF Daisy's
parents or guardian, since she was not
Of age. Daisy had neither. but the
clerk told Phil that guardian might
be appointed. Phil left the office to
meet, coming down the street Enoch
Devlin. Phil made conhdant Of Dev.
lin and asked II he would serve as
Daisy's guardian. Enoch colored,
coughed and hesitatlngly consented.
Phil took him to lawyers office and
paid a large fee to rush the matter
through, then arranged with Daisy FOL
a wedding Mt 6 o'clock in the evening
At he was notified that Enoch Devlln
was appointed Dalsy's guardian. and
he hurried to Enoch's rooms to get his
consent to her marriage.

Phil was quick to take in the situa.

in trap and without word turned
on his heel and walked away. Going
straight to Daisy, he told her what had
occurred.
Meanwhile it had been decided that
Phil should spend few days in New

RECOVER MONEY.
New York Life Trustees Have Problem

New York, Feb 10.--Jn accordance
with the recommendations Of the Fowler
3bouse cleaning committee, the trustees
Of the New York Life Insurance COM
pany have referred to their counsel the
problems Of recovering ST ,074 ,774, or
obtaining an accounting therefor, from
Andrew Hamilton and John A. Mccall.
Civil suits viii be instituted against
the two men.
There is no intention on the part Of
the company at this time to begin
criminal proceedings against anyone in
connection with the moneys which the
Fowler committee said were improperly
diverted from the treasury. This fact
was learned on indisputable authority
yesterday. While civil suit can be
directed against Hamilton in France or
in any other country, the company's
trustees and lawyers have discovered no
evidence that leads them to believe they
can support charge Of embezzlement,
which would be necessary ia order to
extradite the former Legislative agent
