voted band of women yearly grow
ing larger.
Rev. Father Cutler was then called
upon to say few words which he dig
in his usual earnest manner; afte!
expressing pleasure he felt at being
with the Alumnae, he reminded them
of their sacred duty as graduates OF
st. Mary's-to be ever noble, God
fearing women, an honor to woman
hood and to their Alma Mater whose
influence should ever direct their lives
to the highest and the best. An even
ing hymn to the Virgin closed the
feast, which all present agreed was IN
every way most enjoyable. Good
byes were then said and all departed
with new joy in their lives for the
brief hours spent with youth in its
happy associations.

THE BRADDOCK

The dedication OF memorial park

struggle to wrest from French hands
control Of the headwatefs Of the Ohio
The fight for Fort Duquesnc is a
tale long told.
The French and Indian War was a
training school for the great Revo-
luton. Washington in his twcntics
campaigned with Braddock; and

French and Indian war (l75d-6O), to
that Of the Revolution, span of q
years, was just enough to grow

Most Dangerous of Minor Ailments

Of the minor ailments cold IS by
far the most dangerous, not in itself
but the serious diseases it SO otter
leads to. Pneumonia and consumption
always start with a cold. When you
have cold you are much more likely
to contract the infectious diseases
such as diphtheria, scarlet fever anc
whooping cough. Colds are easily
cured, in fact Charberlair's Cough
Remedy is famous for its cures o. this
most common ailment, and is pleasant
and safe to take. Why take such des.

Where did you study? With some great master, I am sure. Tell us all about yourself. We are dying to know, and will sit at your feet with great delight while you discourse"
 Tryon Durham interrupted these disquieting questions. by drawing his watch from his pocket with apparent hasty remembrance, and giving a well feigned exclamation of dismay
 I'm sorry, Mrs. Bowman; it is too bad to interrupt this delightful eve ming" he apologized; but I'm afraid if Miss Remington feels that she must take the next train. we shall have to make all possible speed. Miss Rem ington, can you get your wraps on in three minutes? Our carriage is prob ably at the door now"
 With look of relief, yet keeping up her part of dismay over the lateness of the hour, the girl sprang to her feet, and hurried away to get her wraps, in spite of her protesting hostess. Mrs Bowman was held at bay with sweet expressions of gratitude for the pleas ant entertainment. The great black picture hat was settled becomingly on the small head, the black cloak thrown over her gown, and the gloves fitted gon hurriedly to hide the fact that they were too large.
 And whom did you say you studied twtth?" asked the keen hostess, deter mined to be able to tell how great 8 guest she had harbored for the eve ming.
 "Oh, is MT. Dunham calling me, Mrs. Bowman? You will excuse me for lhurrying of, won't you? And 1t has been so lovely of you to ask me-per- jfectly delightful to find friends this way when I was stranger"
 She hurried toward the stairway and down the broad steps, and the hostess had no choice but to follow her.
 The other guests crowded out into the hall to bid them good-by and to tell

CHAPTER III.

Dunham hurried her of amid the good-bys of the company, and in a moment more they were shut into the semi-darkness of the four-wheeler and whirled from the too hospitable door.
 As soon as the door was shut, the girl began to trembie.
 "Oh, we ought not to have done that!" she exclaimed with a shiver of recollection. They were so very kind. It was dreadful to impose upon them. But-you were not to blame. It was my fault. It was very kind of you"
 we did not impose upon them!" he exclaimed peremptorily- You are my friend. and that was all that We claimed. For the rest, you have cer- tainly made good. Your wonderful music! How l wish l might hear more of it some time!"
 The carriage paused to let trolley pass, and a strong arc-light beat in upon the two. A passing stranger peered curiously at them, and the girl shrank back in fear. It was momen- tary, but the minds of the two were brought back to the immediate neces- sities of the occasion.
 Now, what may I do for you? ? asked Durham in a quiet, business-hke tone. as If 1t were his privilege and right to do all that was 10 be done. Have you thought where you would like to go?"
 T have net been able to do much thinking IL required all my wits to act with the present. But know that I must not be any further trouble to you. You have done more already than anyone could expect If you can have the carriage stop in some quiet, Iout-of-the-way street where l shall not be noticed, l will get out and relieve you If I hadn't been so frightened at first, I should have had more sense than to burden you this way. l hope some day l shall be able to repay your kindness. though l fear it Is too great ever to repay"
 Please don't talk in that way, said he protestingly. Tt has been pleas ure to do the little that have done. and you have more than repaid 1t by the delight you have given me and my friends. l could not think of leaving you until you are out of your trouble, and if you will only give me little hint of how to help, 1 will do my ut- most for you. Are you quite sure you were followed? Don't you think you could trust me enough to tell me lit tie more about the matter"
 She shuddered visibly.

The girl found herself established in the little drawing room compartment. and her eyes gave him thanks again. She knew the seclusion and the oppor- tunity to lock the compartment door would give her relief from the con , stant fear that an unyelcome face might at any moment appear beside her.
 The conductor on this train is an old acquaintance of mine," he ex- plained as that official came through the car. 'I have taken this trip with him number of times. Just sit down minute. I am going to ask him to look out for you and see that no one annoys you"
 The burly official looked grimly over his glasses at the sweet face under the big black hat, while Tryon Dunham ex- plained: She's friend of mine. l hope you'll be good to her" In an- swer, he nodded grim assent with a smileless alacrity which was neverthe- less satisfactory and comforting. Then the young man walked through the train to interview the porter and the 1 newsboy, and in every way to arrange for pleasant journey for one who three hours before had been unknown to him.
 When he returned to her he found the shades closely drawn and the girl sitting in the sheltered corner of the section, where she could not be seen from the aisle, but where she could watch in the mirror the approach of | anyone. She welcomed him with a smile, but instantly urged him to leave the train, lest he be carried away.
 He laughed at her fears. and told her there was plenty of time Even nary shudder, he fingered to tell her
 that she must be sure to let him know by telegraph if she needed any further help; and at last swung him. self from the platform after the train
 was in full motion.
 Immediately he remembered that he had not given her any money. How could he have forgotten? And there was the North side station yet to be
 passed before she would be out of dan. | ger. The last car was almost past
 when he made daring dash and flung
 himself headlong upon the platform, to the horror of several trainmen who stood on the adjoining tracks. He found the girl sitting where he i had left her, only she had flung up the shade of the window next her, and was gazing with wide, frightened eyes into the fast flying darkness. He touched her gently on the shoulder, and she turned with cry.
 "Oh. thought you had fallen under the train!" she said dn an awed voice Tt was going so fasti But you did not get of, after all. did you? Now, what can you do? It is Is too bad, and all on my account"

Yes, got off," he said doggedly, sitting down opposite her and pulling his tie straight. T got off. but it wasn't altogether satisfactory. and so got on again. There wasn't much time for getting on gracefully. but you'll have to excuse 1t The fact is, l couldn't bear to leave you alone just yet. l couldn't rest until I knew you had passed the North side station.

 Please don't say that.' he went on eagerly. T can get off later and take the down train, you know. Really the fact it, I couldn't let you go right out of existence this way without knowing about you"

S25. 90 PREDICTED FOR HAY.

Well posted authorities in San
Francisco figure that hay will
reach the $25 mark before anoth-
er season, Very little grain hay
has been made in Southern Cali
fornia this year, and the alfalfa
hay produced there will not be
sufficient, largely SO, to supply
home demand. Advices from all
points, east and north, show con-
clusively, that there will be a
shortage of the hay crop in near
ly all of the hay producing states,
so the present outlook for high
prices for hay are decidedly
good.
