= yves, and by this man Worden. He
wrote me a letter stating that Ohio
was safe and sound in his charge. He
threatened If | made the facts public
to instantly kill Ohio. He said should
hear from him again in a month. II
then l would become his wife Ohio

distressed girl ended her recital in q
storm Of sobs and tears.
There could be but M response on
the part of the chivalrous Bruce to the
appeal of the anxious Nella. What
ever was done must be accomplished
secretly, cautiously, for he too believed
that the desperate Worden would not
hesitate to sacrifice little Ohio II he
found out that he was being hunted
down. For tho time being Bruce
ceased to be a lawyer and became q
detective.
II will find the child if diligence and
effort a bring it about" he pledged
Nella, and the grateful look In her
eye was sufficient reward for his I'M
selfish determination.
-lella had q photograph of Worden
taken some years previous. Bruce was
also given one of little Ohio by Nella-
The preliminary stages of his unusual
quest gave him a rugged, battling ex-
'erience he had not apprehended. It
there came a final reward for his alli-
gence and courage.
"At last!" he breathed with intense
satisfaction at the end Of a gloomy
rainy day, as he penetrated the bleak
corridors Of a still more gloomy tene-
building.
Thither he had traced his man and
a confederate. Through the transom
of an ~unoccupied apartment adjoining
Bruce viewed the pair in earnest o.
v~ersation.
Man. rich, lets the dog run loose
and all THAR" Worden was asking.
YES" assented his companion.
"AIl right, then you take the boy
past the place. Make a great outcry,
grab the boy up in your arms and
that the dog has bit him in a

he diakolical wretch, and the kid
ant squeal."
Bruce fastened for the police and
vithin an hour was at the den Of the
co~nspifators. Within another hour
Iasil Worden knew that he was
oomed to 4 long imprisonment for
AIT and present deeds and Bruce wa
n his way to NellA with little Ohio.

Following Father.

When the conversation turned to
the subject of romantic marriages
this little anecdote was volunteered
by H. H. Asker, a North Dakota poll
tician:
One afternoon Green was standing
on the corner looking at the jitneys
when he was suddenly confronted by
an acquaintance of other years.
Soon they were comparing notes and
recalling happy hours.
$50 you were married ten years
ago. said the acquaintance in re-
sponse to statement made by
Brown. ''Took place in the church,
I suppose, with bridesmaids and
flowers, cake and the brass band"
ssNo," answered Brown, with a re-
flective expression, lit was an elope-
ment"
s'An elopement, eh?" returned the
acquaintance. did the girls father
follow you?"
"Yes,'' answered Brown, with
something akin to sigh, "and he
has been with US ever since. ."-Phila-

LIQUOR GOES UP IN SMOKE.
Liquor Alone to Value of S23, 900 is
Consumed by Fire.

Barnwell, October "A fire with
the loss totalling around $4,000 hit
Barnwell about II o'clock tonight
and made the most spectacular blaze
in the history of the town.
One building was destroyed. 1t
contained the opera house, the coun-
ty dispensary and the dispensary bot
Ting plant. The whole thing is a
total loss. The value of the liquors
destroyed, at consumers prices, was
stated to be about $4,000, with in
surance of $4,000. The building was
valued at $4,000 and was insured
for $4,000.
The fire started in the bottling
plant, supposedly from defective
electric wiring. This town has wa
terworks, but tonight the pressure
was so slight that there was abso-
lutely no protection. The fire SIM
ply burned itself out.
Close to the burning building was
the Baptist church, and at times it
seemed likely that sparks would ig-
mite it, but fortunately only the one
building was a. prey to the flames.
Smoke poured from the burning
structure fully twenty minutes before
a blaze was seen. Nearly everybody
in town was as near the scene of the
blaze as the intense heat would al
low them to get.

Made a Difference.

At a dinner party the other evening, reference having been made to the good old days in the little brick school house, this story was recalled by James L. Rice, coach of the Columbia college crew:
 The teacher in a public school was giving demonstration in mental arith- metic, and after speaking at some length she turned to bright-faced boy at the head of the class.
 Now. then, Willie" said she, do you think that you can answer me q question in mental arithmetic?"

Faded Sentiment.

That beautiful sentiment eventually dies a sad death would seem to be demonstrated by story told the other night by southern congress- man.
 Smith, who lives in the suburbs, was about to hustle for the communication train some time since, when his wife followed him to the door as usual to make sure that his shoes were tied and that he hadn't forgotten his neck tie
 Say, John," refectively remarked the good woman as they reached the veranda, "do you know that this is the fifteenth anniversary of our wedding?"
 Why, so it is," returned John, do- ing some nasty mental arithmetic. "f will bring you home a nice bunch of roses"
 Roses are very sweet" was the practical response of mother, but you had better make it some oysters to fry for supper"

CHARITY CLOSE TO HOME
Smiths Seemingly Generous Action Was Not Altogether Matter of
 Philanthropy.

Senator Morris Sheppard of Texas remarked the other day that philan- thropy was not always actuated by beautiful and generous heart, and told this story to back up his statement:
 One afternoon a bunch of congenial spirits were talking about the various leading citizens of the town when a parsimonious party by the name of Smith was smilingly referred to.
 Speaking of Smith, interposed an other of the bunch, "I met him yes terday afternoon going around town with a petition trying to collect money for a poor widow that she might pay her rent"
 What's that" exclaimed the amazed crowd, all of whom knew Smith. "Collecting funds for widows rent, Watch out for the millennium at 6 a m. tomorrow"
 "Oh, no, it isn't as bad as that ex- plained the other. You see, Smith owns the house that the widow lives in"

WANTED TO SEE THE FINISH
Small Girl Did Not Consider That the End of the Proceedings Had
 Been Reached.

The short interval that elapsed be- tween the visit of the little girl to a commencement exercise and attend ance at an oldfashioned camp-meet- ing may explain remark that she made at the religious event. She went there with her grandmother and, very much interested in everything that oc- cured, asked numerous questions which her grandparent attempted to answer to the best of her ability.
 Who is that woman up there and what is she doing% asked the little girl, referring to a woman who was on her knees in the "amen corner"
 "I don't know who she is, but she's going to get religion" was the reply.
 Some time elapsed and the woman remained on her knees. Finally, the grandmother of the little girl became tired of the service and announced that it was time to leave.
