Thorpe, a hunter he proclaimed him
self, but not aVerse to assisting bor-
der smugglers at times. He was
surly, unsociable old fellow but with
one great redeeming feature in his
warped nature-he idolized Elsa as
he had loved her dead mother. She
seemed to feel it a duty to remain
with the lonely, bereaved old man.
In her presence all his rudeness
seemed to disappear. Poor, obscure

ter how poorly his desultory avoca-
ton paid him.
For a month Dacre was laid up at
the humble cottage home of Elsa,
near little town named Clyde. The
purity and freshness of his faithful
nurse had enraptured him. He made
an honest, earnest declaration of
love. Elsa had blushed and trem-
bled. Her stepfather, coming in,
flew into a passion. He drove
Dacre forcibly from the place. The
next morning Dacre found the little
hut deserted. Elsa and Thorpe had
disappeared.
For a month he sought them with
out avail Now he had come to me,
believing that his presence in the dis
trict would cause Thorpe to remain
in concealment.
Twice Thorpe has been seen in the
last week-once in a range of hills
near the coast, once running out in
the lake but at a distance and speed
ing to cover when hailed.
These facts 1 verified within few
hours after my arrival at Clyde.
Dacre had searched the hills in vain.

When people assert that the young
folks of today do not make as good
sons and daughters and wives and
husbands as their mothers and fathers
did, they don't know what they are
talking about. No one questions the
character and ability of the men and
women of former generations, but all
the same, they were not angels. Nei.
ther are the young people of today
angles, but by disposition, bringing up
and association, they will rank with
forebears and will make just as good
and capable wives and husbands and
fathers and mothers.-Atoka County
