The matter of excessive speed by
Automobiles was taken up at the
meeting of the Commercial Club the
other evening, says the Window Cit
izen, and it was the concensus of
opinion that some step should be
taken to curb the growing habit of
swift driving on the streets. Several
accidents have been narrowly avoid
ed lately because of the reckless
speed which some drivers have driv-
en-. and unless the drivers of cars
have thought enough to discontinue
the practice they will probably have
chance to donate to the state rev.
enue fund.

Human DriftwOod.

Austin has a bunch of young fell
lows who toll not, neither do they
hold job, observes the Transcript
of that city. yet a banker with all
his money is not arrayed like one of
these. One young fellow Of this
bunch is able to work, yet he saw
the sheriff put his mothers property
out on the walk rather than work
and contribute a cent towards help
ing to pay the rent. There isn't
one of this bunch of half dozen
fellows who owns the clothes on his
back. They spend their time loafng
around the pool rooms and street
corners. There isn't one in the
bunch but has a good brain and
each one has a good, healthy body,
but they are drifting, drifting, drift
ing. Drifting as hundreds of others
have drifted. These boys have al
ready passed beyond the control of
their natural guardians and our
police have spotted each one of them.
The guardians of the law have
watched similar punches of boys
drifting and they have all drifted to
the breakers to become derelicts
among men. The boys think Of
nothing but having a>good time.

The death of State Treasurer Clar-
ence C. Dinehart Wednesday morn
ing of last week, following an oper-
alton for appendicitis at the Luther
an hospital, st. Paul. created a shock
to his friends all over the state. Mr..
Dinehart was the youngest official at
the capitol, being but little past
SO years of age. Mr.. Dinehart's
popularity was shown at the last
election by his receiving the largest
vote given for any state officer ex-
cept the attorney general, and he
was favorite in political and social
circles at the state capital also. He
was born in Chicago, but had lived
at Slayton since 1884. where he was
assistant cashier of the state bank at
the time of his nomination and cleo
ton as state treasurer. This spring
he decided to enter the race for con-
gress in his district. and was the
leading candidate before the pri-
maries for the nomination on the
Republican ticket. His death at the

ant What do you think father said
TO me this morning" he asked.
Elvira shook her head. She was
not radiant. Her face was white and
there were shadows under her eyes.
! Well David related. ''he said OF

woman he cared for. believe ne will

The tears weiied up In ENira's
eyes. oh, David" she murmured, "it

1t was interesting after that to see
the part that the elders played in
the little comedy. David,s father
chuekied over his sons progress in
his love making-not because hts son
was happy. but because the outcome
would make his enemy unhappy. FL
vira's mother smiled when she saw
her daughter start for the trysting
place. She knew how bitter the
thought of the marriage of these two
would be to the man across the way

fall came, and In October the two
were to marry--David with his

mothers. and yet neither parent

Revenge was the sword with which
each hoped to pierce the heart Of his
opponent.
On the morning of the wedding day
Elvira's mother helped the girl to
dress. There was no veil, no white
satin; but Elvira In her filmy null,
with her fair hair in golden coronet
around her head and with a bunch OF
white roses from the garden, was q
thing Of beauty.
The mother was in flutter of ex-
element over the supposed runaway.
You go on and meet David she
said. "and ! will come after you TO
the church. II won't do to let David's
father suspect.
Tn the other side OF the fence. the
old man was giving similar advice

after you. II won't do TO let her
mother know" Then he brought out

Into the dim country church an
hour later came the young couple.
The bride was fresh and sweet In her
snowy fincry, and Ia her arms she
carried great punches of roses--red
and white and fragrant. The BRIDE
groom. with his head up, looked as

from him. The minister brought with
him couple of servants to act as
witnesses and the footsteps OF the
Ave persons echoed through the still
ness, Then. as the young pair stood
before the man OF God, the silence
was broken by a careful tip-toeing In
the aisle to the right and a careful
tip-toeing In the aisle to the left. The
red famed into David's face, but Ell
vira was white. The minister began
the service. and back to that happy
trio two old persons, caught In the
net of their own evil passions, giared
at each other across the empty pews.
But as the service went on the
flashing chances softened--none could
hear the beautiful words that joined
youth and beauty with youth and
strength and remain hardened. Into
the eyes OF Elvira's mother came
tears. She -leaned- her-heaa- On the

David's father cleared his throat.

The service over. Elvira almost ran
down the aisle. But IL was the aisle
to the left. and 1t was TO David's
father that she ran.
Forgive US; oh. please forgive us"
she said.
In the aisle to the right David held
little weeping woman to her arms,
a little old woman with the hatred
all gone out of her heart. And pres
