Oliver down at the sawmill on the way
to school He had always carried her
little tin lunch pail those days. Some
times they had stopped at the bars
lower down, and "peeked" inside to
see what surprise her mother had
slipped in, berry turnover or a dough-
nut with jelly inside. She shared her
treasures with him then.
Then had come her schooling, first
at the high school in a nearby town,
and later up at Normal. She had
slipped out of his reach for a little
while 1t had been this summer at the
big hotel that had taught her where
life ran in sweetest places, and she
had tired of all the shams and petty
battles of that daily round. Life was
what one made it, and the makings lay
in ones own heart, as oliver would
have put It, She could have her books
and music up at the hill farm, with
peace and plenty and-him.

got mite of objections to you if you
can get her"
The long way home! Oliver curled
his whip out to the oxen, and took
the steep hill road He knew what her
father meant She was up at the big
hotel teaching some children in one of
the rich city families. He had seen
her only at church in the valley on
Sundays, only caught few words with
her in the shadow of the pillared porch
afterwards. And it had been a whole
year since he had kissed her goodby
down under the pines. He wondered
if she remembered Not that she had
promised anything; but sometimes he.
had almost kept the memory of her
kiss as a promise.
1t was two miles and half up to the
hotel. Leisurely he walked it, with
the slow-going oxen and load of rust
colored cedar slabs. Several times he
he had to stop and turn to one side
at the sound of a horn. Once he
thought he recognized Evalora in one
of the roadsters.
He went forward steadily, knowing
just what old Steve had meant when
he had told him to take the long road.
If Eyalora could stand it to see him
drive up to the big summer hotel with
slabs and the oxen in his brown jeans
and high boots, she would take the
long road for life with him that way
There would be no pretense, no com
promise She would take him just as
he was
When he reached the bend, the long
vine covered verandas came in view,
the tall white chimneys, and many ga
bles. A large space had been cleared
in the virgin forest of the mountain
side to make a fitting site for the ho
tel. Oliver had never seen this since
it's completion Now he surveyed it
with calm, interested eyes, it's golf
course clear down to Peck's brook, it's
italian gardens that cut up the fore
ground the stables and tennis courts,
everything that made up Evalora's S
everyday life that summer, even
though she was merely summer gov
erness.
And suddenly, as he turned up the
curving drive, he saw her. She was
on the veranda at little table with
two children That yeranda looked
like a distant fower-bed to him, with
all its daintily clad women and young
girls, but he could pick our Eyalora.
And he heard the boy call out:
"Oh, look at the oxen!"
Everybody looked at the oxen,
and at their boyish driver He stopped |
at the turn of the drive and waited !
looking up at Evalora Would she take |
the challenge, and come to him before
them all?
Just then car made the sharp turn |
at the bend in the forest road, and he |
heard the cries Of warning. Now
Evalora had risen, and was running 7
down the steps towards him. He lifted
his hat to greet her just as the car
struck the heavy wood wagon broad
sides. 1t swung about, tangled up with
the terrified backing animals, and the
boy went down in the wreckage.
"Of course, it was my fault. I'll pay
for him here at the hotel"
Evalora looked up at the owner of
the car She knew him. Every day
Of her stay at the hotel he had done
his best to make her appreciate the

Henry MGfganthau, Ambassador to
Turkey Also Testfies He Didn't In
tend 10 Limit the mpeaehed Cover
nor In Any Way When He Gave thu
Candidate a Check - Decision On
Defendants Motion Withheld.
Albany, N, Y, Sept 25.- Members
Of the impeachment court, before
whom Governor Sulzer is on trial
were startled by the testimony OF
Jacob II. Schif, who declared that
he $500 check which he gave
William Sulzer on oct. &c. 1912,
was not a campaign contribution,
but was intended for whatever use
Mr.. Sulzer saw fit to make of it.
To a lesser degree the court was sur
prised by the statement of Henry
Morganthau, ambassador to Turkey,
that he didn't intend TO limit Mr. Sui
ger in any way when he gave the can
didate on oct. a check for $1,000.
In this case the surprise was miti-
gated by Mr. Morganthau's final ad-
mission that the money was given to
help Mr.. Snlzer lin his election and
canvass"
The prosecution had contended that
both the Morganthau and Schif
checks, neither of which were men
toned in Mr. Sglzer's sworn state
ment to the secretary of state, we're
out-and-out campaign contributions.
Across the face of the Schiff check
Mr. Schiff wrote two months ago:
"Mr Schiff's contribution toward Will
nam Suffers campaign expenses"
Mr. Schiff, the first witness TO. the
prosecution to be called in the I'M
peachment trial, told with entire self
possession and indication of a good
memory the story of how William
Sulzer came to him on Oct. 16 and
asked him to contribute toward his
campaign. He related how Mr.. Sulzer,
dissatisfied with a promise Of $4,000,
said, Cant you make it any more?'
and was turned down
Thus far the prosecutors were OBJ
viously pleased with their witness.
But when cross-examined by Louis
Marshall for the defense Mr. Schif
quietly went on with the part of the
story that hadn't been told before
He testified that in the conversation
between Mr.. Sulzer and himself moth
ing was said as to the use to be made
of the $4,000 check. He thought it |
was the general intent and purpose |
of the conversation that Mr. Sulzer |
could use the $2,5OO for whatever he
would please"
"Mr. Sulzer," he said could have |
had the $4,000 at any time and for |
any purpose, and if I had been care.
full I probably would not have used |
the words campaign expenses be-
cause really meant that he should /
have free use of it."
The postponement, until all the evil
dence is in, of a vote on the motion
of Mr.. Suffers counsel to strike out |
the three impeachment articles charg-
ing him with making a false financial
statement and of buying stocks with
cash intended to further his candi.
