tions to a little party they were
holding at one of the leading
leading hotels. Among those
invited to the party were the

that light before, and from the

party it would seem they made
all sorts of promises. Jackson is

some fellow was yanked up before
Judge McNeill, charged with con-

about the enforcement of the law.

CT and oldest sister were killed in a buggy which they were driving by Q train at q railroad crossing. This was bad enough surely, but troubles hunt in couples" and the blow seemed to af- feet her fathers mind He became al. most childish, took to his bed and would have no one but her walt upon him. To complete the roll of disaster her brother suddenly brought home as his wife a girl whom none of his friends would have chosen, and the old man would not let his daughter-n- law come near him. To tell the truth, she had no desire to help Miss Acker- mann lh her duties. She had married for step up and said plainly that she did not mean to slave to please any body.
 "You see how 1t is, Jack" Miss Ack. ermann said, with streaming eyes. q cannot leave father, even for you"
 Bring him to our house with you" replied Jack. There Is plenty of room, and father and mother won't mind"
 ''No, Jack; thanks ever so much. but that wouldn't do any gooGI Father wouldn't be satisfied. Besides, he takea up So much of my time that couldn't do my duty by yoa" And Jack had to submit with the best grace he could muster.
 Unfortunately he consulted the doc tor who attended Mir. Ackermann as to the probable duration of the old mans Illness. 2
 The doctor assured him that the trouble was chiefly hypochondrla and that he might live for years in the same state or might possibly recover as suddenly as he had collapsed. At all events the patient was in no immedl- ate danger
 The Inquiry would have done no harm had 1t not been that the doctor had talking wife, to whom he told everything, so before long the whole neighborhood was saying that Jack RalSton had been asking how long old man Ackermann could live Of course the story came to Miss Acliermanns ears. to her Intense indignation and stiu greater grief, Jack could not deny 1t in toto, and short of positive denial she would listen to no explanation. There was a quarrel a broken engage ment, and Jack Ralston went west, leaving his sweetheart well nigh bro. ken hearted, with only duty to console her, and sometimes duty is the best consolation one can have.
