and driven and managed by Mr..
Chantelois, has been creating a
sensation at some of the big race
meets in the state of Michigan
recently, and week had a walk-away
in free-for-all at Saginaw, winning
three straight heats in 2:O7{ on the
half mile track.
President LaLond, OF BAYFIELD,
County Fair Association, informs
the Pioneer that funds are available
to pay all OF the expenses connected
with the county fair and that every
thing aside from premiums are being
paid now. The premiums will be
paid just as soon as the secretary
has time to check over carefully the
many awards made. There wer
over 500 exhibitors at the fair this
year, and the exhibits from the
territory nearby were fully as
numerous as they ever were. 1t
was the failure of the lake shore
region to come forth with exhibits
that made the principal difference in
the total number of exhibits this
year.
w. S. Matthews, of Duluth, came
to this city last week and commenced
a replevin action against K. w.
Gidlof, of Port Wing, to recover
possession of a stallion named Leroy,
and the case came up in Municipal
Court Monday. The Plaintiff was
represented by G. F. Morris of this
city, as counsel. and the defendant
by George G. Cooper, of Superior.
Before the case came to trial con-
ferences were held by all the parties
to the action and a settlement was
agreed upon, according to the terms
of which Mr.. Matthews got the
horse and paid the costs of the
action.
P. Bogie and J. P. Jacobson
came up from Park Falls last
Sunday to spend the day with their
families. John Vacha and w. B.
Johnston, book-keeper and steno-
grapher respectively for the com.
pany, were at Park Falls during
the week and returned home, the
former Sunday and the latter
Saturday afternoon, They all
report that the Park Falls plant is
running along smoothly.

The place was like tomb. phOned

days went by. Thurzo's had lost its
charm. / was stepped in the delight

Four days after her visit l had to
go to the Office of large corporation
on a business errand and asked the
president who was a friend of mine,
to have lunch with me. He said he
would be at my service, If he could
dictate letter first. Then he gave
me a deep leather chair by window
and q new magazine and | turned 1t
half round, circumspectly, on his
desk.
A high revolving book case also
made me feel that l was not intrud
ing on his privacy. He took up his
desk phone and said: Send Stetson
to me at once for dictation."
AS the door opened looked up, and
the Girl with Past came in slowly
and gravely. She wore gold-rimmed
spectacles and paper cuffs pinned
over the sleeves of her shirt waist.
Her hair, which / only knew of as a
tangle of reddish brown curls, was
coiled frowsily about her head. She
wore a black apron with pocket
sagging down, and carried note
book and pencil.
She did not see me, and took care
that she should not When she had

think Of Stetson as woman. She s
an old maid - and for that reason,
perhaps, she s the best stenographer

ought to see her card indexes. She
never was known to make a mistake.
She has no imagination - no ro-

"of the awfully tragic story there is

Coyle's eyes closed; a gray line
drew itself about his mouth.
'Madge"-it it was almost whisper

him - and come to me?"
Her eyes answered him. in their
blue depths flame was lighted. Over
the ivory flesh of her throat soft
flush crept. She swayed toward him.

He laughed again, and the sound
of 1t was like scOurge.
-Four years ago you told me that
you had made mistake; you could
not be my wife," He leaned forward,
speaking In a voice that was harsh
and strained, yet every word was
clear-cut, distinct. while admitting
that you loved me, and me alone, you
told me that you were going to marry

ries you craved - the luxuries that

Love? What does such woman
as you know of love? You never loved
anyone but yourself. You never loved
anything - but your beautiful body
- the body that you sold to get
clothes and jewels with which to deck
it. You - to talk of love to me!
You lied to me - betrayed me - for

you would exchange him for another
poor fool. Why do such women as
you live? You have MT single de-
cent, womanly impulse, not spark OF
truth or faith or honor - not even
shame The only emotions you can
feel are greed and lust - and fear!
For you re afraid now - afraid OF
poverty - afraid of the ruin you
yourself have brought about"
She covered away from him, her
face white as chalk, her eyes wide
with terror, mumbling, stammering
- for pardon. Under the lash of his
scorn, her beauty, her youth, seemed
to fall away from her
Suddenly he checked himself; the
fierce light died from his eyes; his
tense muscles relaxed.
You spoke of fetters," he said very
quietly. You have struck mine from
me. Even while hated you, loved
free. No price is too great to pay for
that. You may tell Mr.. Mannering
that tomorrow my brokers will sell
him twenty thousand shares of Con-
solidated Northern at fifty. That is
all, think. Goodnight"
With slow unsteady steps, she
stumbled toward the door. Only once
she looked back. Coyle was standing
by the open window, looking out onto
the moonlit lawn.
The door closed behind her.

aloud -Four years."
He went over to his desk. and from
an inner drawer drew out photo
graph, in an oval silver frame. The
face Of Madge Mannering smiled up
at him with all her provocative, Sc
ductive charm.
And he smiled back,-a smile Of
quiet triumph and content. He
snapped the picture across - and
across again. Then he laid the pieces
in a bronze ash-tray - lighted a
match - and watched the flame curl
over the edges of the cardboard, un-
til it was entirely consumed.
