Bad for LOggNrS.

The continued warm weather of
the past few days has greatly re-
ducrd the snow in the woods and
has put the logging roads in such a
condition thai 10 some places they
have almost been : bandoncd. Log
gers have had great deal OF trouble
this winter. In the first place there
was no snow. Then when it did
come it came in such an abundance
that work in the woods was
made difficult. Now after only a
couple of weeks good sleighing
along comes the soft weather and is
taking the snow away again. Ii
cold weather should come soon the
conditions in the woods I'D be
fine, but if the warm wees ser con-
tinues for any length of time it will
play the dickens with the loggers.

day afternoon for the purpose of
talking over the matter and see

to the city and we're therefore
anxiois that a compromise be

Assisting the
Miracle.
By JOHN HARTY.
copyrisA.ed, 1904 BY P. 9. E.ssmsn,.

Jessie thrilled at the sight Of the
tAll. grave man slowly descending the
steps to the boat landing. He was z
governor, the governor Of her owr
state, and In his hands he held the
power OF life and death--the life OF
death Of the man she had promised tc
marry and who now lay In prison
awaiting execution for the murder Of 8
friend.
He smiled brightly upon her as he
came upon the float II see that It L

The governors face beamed with de-
light

skin. II have only week, and-well.

ded her veriication. Fishing had done
much to help her over the days that
had gone BY since sentence was passed
on Tim Darlington. She swept her
tackle to one side, and the governor
took his seat after she had declined to
let him row.

strokes carried them rapidly through

Jessie bravely. Tin and Jack Sutton
were out in boat, and Jack went

because he could not swim. The Sut
tons declared that it was murder and
pressed the case"
''But they proved motive" reminded
the governor ut seems that young
Sutton had been the dishonest means
of losing some of Darlington's savings

But that was all patched up" cried
Jessie. "Jack was to have paid back
the money in installments. He con.

made friends again"
The governor shook his head. He had

lightly to the bow and threw over the

The governor hurriedly threw out bis

sport was excellent, and the tired linei

"I'm glad tNere were no more boats"

The governor looked with admiration
at the catch and then half rose to his
feet.
"You must let me row back" he In
sisted. You are tired with your FISH

Cautiously they exchanged places,
and the governor went into the bow
to raise the anchor. He had brought
the hook inboard and rose to crouch
ing position to regain the rowing seat
when his knees bent under him, and
the next moment he was fioundering
In the water. Like fash Jessie had
caught up the oars and was rowing
toward him. 1t was the work Of a mo
ment for him to climb aboard over the
bow again.
"You had better row." suggested Jes.
sic. ''That will keep you from taking
cold"
The governor took the oars, and the
light boat shot over the water. For u
time neither spoke; then the man look

expression on his face, II feel as

ways believed It to be impossible for n
man to fall overheard II he took care,

In the stern Jessie was sobbing out
her thanks. and It was not until they
came In sight OF the landing that she
recovered her self possession. None Of
the other parties had seen the accident,
and the governor, much to his relief,
was able to slip into the hotel without
attracting attention.
Nothing more was said regarding the
matter, but Jessie's heart sang as she
saw the governor take his departure
and realized that one Of his first Off
cial acts would be the signing of the
pardon for Tim.
But 1t was two weeks before the ma
chinery of the law at last released Its
grip on the person of Tim Darlington
and he walked out of the death house
to freedom. He had arranged to come
straight to Jessie. and they were float
ing over the same fishing pool where
the governor had taken his plunge.
1T seems like miracle that the gov
ernor should have gone overheard Just

Too observant.

Much is said in these days about the
Importance of training the young to
habits of observation. 1t is well to
keep ones eyes open, but as there are
two sides to every shield, so there are
times when it Is not mans first duty
to see everything that is going on.
A farmer hired a man, the story goes,
and put him into his field to work.
After awhile the farmer came along
and accosted the new hand:
did you see carriage go down the
road awhile ago?'
''Yes, did. One Of the hosses was
a gray hoss, and the other was a roam
and lame in his hoff leg"
Il though | heard some men shoot
ing over there on the edge Of the
woods"
"Yes; one of them was Colonel Cot
ton: he was the tall one. The second
one was Major Peters, and the third
one was Tom McSniffer Colonel Cot
ton had one of them newfangled
breechloadin' guns what breaks in
two"
"Did you see those wild pigeons fly
over just now"
"See 'em! Rather. There was nine
teen Of them. They lit in that old
cornfeld down yonder."
"Well, you see too much for a man
that is hired by the day. Here's your
wages. When want man to keep
watch of what is going on I'll send
