NEW SHORT STORIES
A.. Roosevelt and the sustons.


In addressing crowds President
Roosevelt frequently makes reference
to the sacrifices OF those who fought
in the wars. To give emphasis to his
speech the president usually levels his
forehnger apparently at some veteran
within range and proceeds something
after this manner, You, sir, down
there-you who wear that button in
your coat lapel"
Upon one occasion the president de-
livered three speeches in one day to as
many different audiences, and each
time he pointed impressively to the
man with the button In his coat lapel.
All the presidents speeches were deliv-
cred within the territory Of a metro
polltan newspaper, and TO cover
each speech a different reporter had
been assigned.
"Down In front of him, Drawing the
rain" wrote the first reporter, stood
q veteran Of the civil war with his sew
enty years and his lame leg. There

Rayiy trimmed with plumes and rib
bons and bunting. Myers horse was
tied to the post nearest the church
porch.
II suppose he'd have tied at the
porch II the place wasn't reserved for
Dietrich" Wilhelm muttered as he
fastened Nance TO the fence on the op-
posite side OF the road. He entered
the church a few minutes before the
bridal couple arrived.
After the last words OF the ceremony
were spoken the little organ sent
forth a joyous strain, and Fritz and
Ann walked down the aisle toward
the door, Dietrich alone preceding
them He was to drive them home.
All the other guests kept their seats
until the Ginning OF the church bell
announced that the bridal party had
started, for az deeply rooted as was
the belief In the wi RS omen was
the belief that misfortune would surely
follow the bride In her married life
did any in the race pass her carriage
during the run.
At the first clang Of the bell there
was a general and hurried uprising.
Myer and Wilhelm were the first out,
and as they stepped on the porch they
saw Myers horse flying down the road
toward his home with broken hitch
ing strap dangling from his bit. In
frantic anger Myer jumped from the
porch and went yelling after the horse
you're going the wrong way to win
the race" called some one after him.
Wilhelm hurried to where Nance was
tied. "Oats," he whispered In her ear.
He jumped In the buggy and drove to
FrIeda, who was standing with group
OF girls awaiting their escorts.
Jump in Frieda," invited Wilhelm.
"Nance won't stand"
Frieda glanced at her father in the
distance and then at Myers disappear
ing figure. Then she accepted the help
Of Wilhelm's free hand and sprang into
the buggy. In another second the
church bell rang for the start. and she
and Wilhelm were speeding. with a
dozen other pairs, after the bridal cou-
pie.
With ears high and visions Of a full
feed box. Nance ran as she had never
run before. Through bitches, over ruts
and stones, inch by inch she gained on
the other horses until at last she had
left them all behind. She entered her
yard several minutes before the next
couple arrived.
Ann and Fritz had gone into the
house and Dietrich was tying his
horses when he caught sight Of WI
helm and Frieda.

"Myer Is running the race with his
horse" laughed Wilhelm. "He went

trich, shaking Wilhelm's hand. "You
don't seem to be very sorry about It.
Puss." he remarked, pinching his
daughters cheek as Wilhelm led her
IN to get the brides first kiss.
After the last guest had left the
church Gus Funk crawled cautiously
out through hole in the foundation Of
the church.
Gee, that wasn't much of q trick"
he grlnned, Ito change Myers strap for
a broken one and to shoe the horse
down the road. It's a good thing that
