He gave an address on a certain
conservative street uptown. The
driver stared at him. Bobby smiled.
''Don't blame me, old chap" he
said, noting the others hesitation.
"But 1 want to go there, strange as
it may seem and incompatible as it
may be with my present appearance.
What's the row? Afraid [ won't be
good for the fare? Here you CO."
He passed up the handful of silver
through the trap. Snow, then,

The whiplash sang through the
air; the shambling horse lurched
into trot; the hanson rocked, and
away they went through the dingy,
noisy streets.
They drew up finally before al
imposing house on the conservative
uptown street. Bobby climbed from
the hanson, and while the latter
turned and went gathering away he
shut his teeth grimly and mounted
the brownstone steps with light of
determination in his eyes.
In response to his vigorous tug at
the bell the door was opened by a
statuesque butler, whose dignity
stood out obtrusiyely all over him.
He looked at the figure on the stoop
and closed the door halfway.
"Well?" he said, and the manner
in which he said it plainly babe the
visitor begone.
"Is Miss Wadsworth ?" said
Bobby quietly.
''Hi think not, sir. In fact, Hi
am very sure she isn't" the butler
replied.
A look came into Bobby's gray
eyes-a look that had made better
men than the butler quail many |
times before now.

She also disembarked Bobby

A couple of carriages bearing the

past him. Three rumbling drays
went humping past, one of the driv-

get to somewhere out of the way.
Bobby grinned. 1t was not
pleasant grin. He was thinking of
his Homecoming as he had planned
it and as it had actually turned out,
and comparisons, which are always
odious things, were particularly so
in this case.

INTEREST INCREASES IN THE AUDITORIUM
 BUILDING PROJECT
Many Business Men Have Come to Committee in Charge and Offered Large Subscriptions of Stock; Papers not here.

That interest in the Auditorium Building Association is ever on the increase has been shown in the past few days, during which time, many offers in a financial way have been made to the committee in charge of the promotion of the enterprise The articles .of incorporation, prepared by Attorney Flanigan, and the apph- cation for a permit to sell stock, are now in Phoenix and an early reply is expected from the corporation com mission.
 In order to make time it IS very possible that some member of the tommjttee will go to Phoenix to urge immediate action, both on the articles of incorporation and the application to sell stock. In such case it is eN- pected the returns on both papers win be here within a yery short time and the actual Notation of the stock issue will be commenced.
 Many are those, in the Warren District. who have interested them selves. sufficiently nthe propect, 70 approach a member or members of the committee in charge of the stock and voluntarily ask that their names be placed on the roll for stock.
 One business man in Bisbee has already offered to take 5000 of the stock. Others have agreed, with no solicitation whatever, to take amounts ranging in value from $500 up. Ev- erything. on the whole, points to wide sale of the stock to every one in the District, regardless of their utilization with any of the fraternal organizations behind the scheme.
 The members of the promotion committee. during the time that the articles of incorporation are pending before the corporation in Phoenix have not been idle They have been quietly stimulating interest in the project among all residents of the City and District. Nothing short of slump or untoward incident appears to be i'm the road, consequently, of the erection of the auditorium.

DOG HANGERS BARK
 LOUD APPROVAL OF
 LOCAL KENNEL CLUB
Enthusiastic Meeting Is Held and Steps Taken to Form 0rgani- zatiOn of Warren District Dog Admirers.

An unexpected amount Of enthus- iasm, gratifying to the promoters of the project. was evinced at @ meet ing called last night for the purpose of organizing a kennel club among dog fancicrs in the Warron District The seating capacity Of the Commer- cial Club office was tayed by those in attendance. Joseph Gray was elect ed temporary chairman and F. E. Sturdevant secretary.
 Informal discussion de.eloped the fact that a general sentiment in fa- vor of a kennel club existed among not only owners but admirers of dogs Among those who took part in the discussion were IT. s. Batterrec Geo. " Pepper. Mrs Joseph Gray, Hill Run. J. B Williams E. Campbell and N. D. Naverete. The breeds repre- sented by the above owners are Are dales Maltese. Boston Terriers and fox hounds Messages were sent by Roger Pelton. Dr. C. Black, Jo Brad ford. William B. Gohring and other dog fanciers, pledging their support of kennel club.
 A committee on constitution and bylaws was appointed, consisting of George V. Pepper, Mrs Joseph Gray and IT. s. Ratterree. This commit tee win report at The next meeting of the fanciers which will be held at 2 D. m. sharp. Sunday, April IS. in the office of Judge Totman A large at tendance is assured and for this req son the office of the Commercial Club was considered inadequate 70 accom- modate the organizers and prospective members.
 The point was emphasized that it is not necessary for applicants for mem bership Co be owners of logs nor is it essential that those who are own CTS shall possess pedigreed or regis tered animals. It is the purpose Of the organization to stimulate interest in well-bred dogs but until this can be accomplished efforts win be di- rected toward bringing into closer touch owners and admirers of all kinds of dogs. The following letter. read at the meeting, illustrated a feel ing doubtless shared by many fan ciers in the Warren District:
 Dear Mir. Gray: My dog at present is not classed as fine He is part shepherd and part collie. My exper- fence with thoroughbreds has been unfortunate and covers quite a range of breeds. Therefore. ! am now an admirer of the plain yellow or coDi- mon dog of unknown or complex an- cestry, and if you will establish that class, I am with you"
 A census of the owners present es- tablished that the Airesdale seems to be the favorite breed in the District lat present Mrs. Gray owns both Airesdales and Boston Terriers. 1t is expected that at the next meeting on April IS, owners of several breeds not represented at last nights meet ing win enroll f .

When the World Is Weary.

Sometimes the world seems oh! so sad
And dull and dark and dreary,
And everything seems wrong and bad
1t makes us feel quite weary.
But don't forget one little thing,
However bad we feel,
There's always time to laugh and sing
And make our JOY quite real.
Tho things go quite astray and wrong,
There's no use in repining,
We still can have our happy song,
To drive away the whining.
Just get to work and do what's square,
And store up golden morals,
Think clean thoughts, but Edo and
dare, "
And try to have no quarrels.
However dark this world may seem,
However joyless, dreary,
Don't lose yourself in one sad dream,
But look quite gay and CHEEKY

People Who Do Big Things Do Not Let
Themselves Be Held.
1t was on the football field at one of
the large colleges. A big tackle had
been brought over to the varsity field
from one Of the class elevens. 1t was
his first experience with the big team
He played fine game until the other
side had the ball. Then he did not
break through" as he should. The
coach finally stopped the play and
went over to him.
what is the trouble? Why don't
you get through?' he said
1.-The man opposite me is not playing
fair. He is holding me- said the
tackle.
IF he holds you again I'll put you
off the fieldr' flashed back the coach
OF course. as the tackle said. it is
against the rules to hold an opponent
unless he has the ball. but the coach
wanted results and not excuses. His
position was that man ought somehow
to break away; that no man must let
himself be held. And that is true, no
one ought to let himself be held. The
excuse may be excellent, but a player
who is held is put out of the game as
effectively as if he were off the field
He might just as well be off the field
The people who accomplish things
worth while in the world are those
who will not let themselves he held
There have always been things enough
to hold them. They might have found
excellent excuses. but they have not
had to use any excuses.-Youth's Com
