ers stuck Obstinately I'm the manner
Of some drawers. She gave a hard
tug; the wood remained Obdurate; she
set her teeth and pulled violently.
The next moment she was sitting on
the floor with the recalcltrant drawer
upside down in her lap and lot OF
odd-lOoking papers scattered about.
With a little laugh and shrug at
her awllwardness she rose and stopped
to gather up the papers. As she
picked up one scrap, larger than the
others. she happened To glance at il,
and something that was written on the
top gripped her attention. With the
blood dyeing her cheeks, she read:
ITO Barbara"
Below were some lines of poetry.
She read them through. They were
not SO good. as poems go; in fact,
there were spots where the meter halt
ed and staggered, and the rhymes
were not above criticism; but to the
heart of the girl who read them, they
were more beautiful than any words
For there in written words was ex-
pressed the love of man for a maid
the love of Bob, her hero, for her
for herself, Barbara Halden!
She read the verses through. Then.
with the blood dyeing her cheeks, she
hastily thrust the paper into the bosom
of her dress. Bob-BOb loved her!
He had never spoken, but the verses
spoke for him. And she-she knew il
nOw-She had loved him ever since he
had come 10 the house. Her heart
sang a paean of thanksgiving that at
last she knew. And he was coming

effusion mingled with reproach by the
good woman and by a girl who had
formerly rushed TO greet him with a
glad cry and Outstretched hand, but
who now shyly stood back and blushed
ut his hearty clasp. And Bob. looking
keenly at her with his eyes trained to
read human faces and learn the
thoughts beneath the masks. realized
that she knew-and grew red and en-
barrassed beneath her glance.
II was not till after the late sup
per that they had a chance to talk.
And the first words that Bob said as
he sat alone with Barbara In Mrs.
Halden's tiny living room were:
"How did you know7"
'T-I-Oh. Bob, forgive met" Bar
bara was almost I'm tears.
His arm around her shoulders as
sured her of his forgiveness.
And then, with averted eyes. Bar
bara repeated a few lines of the
verses she read. A few only, for
Bob's lips on hers stopped her before
she had gotten farther than the first
Il love you"
Il knew I'd left those foolish verses
behind" said Bob after a time. But
never dreamed you'd find them"

bara. happily. But oh, Bob dear, I'm
so glad il happened!"
And Mrs. Halden. coming in TO wish
them goodnight and a happy Thanks

from her surprise. that she was glad,

 UNION OFFICIAL
 WARNSSTR|KERS
 ID OBEY LAW IN [COLORADO MINES
rRepublIean A. P. Lea.et wIrel


 WALSENBURG, Colo, Nov IT, Hurling a. challenge for the president of the Colorado Fuel & Iron company or any other man to meet him in public debate on the justice of the miners cause, Robert Foster, nation al organizer for the United Mine Workers of America, was given rousing ovation by hundreds of strik- CTS here this afternoon at a mass meeting at the fair grounds.
 Foster, in the course of his ad- dress, warned the men against vio- lence or lawlessness of any kind.
 "Go about your business peaceful Iy." he said. "Stay away from the Colorado Fuel & Iron company mines and we will win"
 Martial law has been declared In Huerfano county" said Foster, but I'll admit I can't see why.
 'It is not the intention of the min CTS to create any disturbance what ever. Gu, fight is not to be won that way. All we ask is justice. If there is any act of violence during this strike it will be committed by those who have been sent into this terri tory to help to Colorado Fuel & Iron company enforce a wage reduction that will bring hunger into the homes of men who have stood loyal by the union En its hours of need"
 Foster review tke history of the controversy between the company and miners and scoffed at the com pany's claim that the reduction in wages was orderer with request from the men.
 Frank Hefferly, also q United Mine Workers' organizer, told the miners that the company claim that the wage reduction was made in order to bring down the price of coal was false.
 Tt was proved at the hearings of the Colorado industrial commission in this matter" said Hefferly, "by testimony of one of the Colorado Fuel & Iron company mine superintendents that the cost of pro ducing a ton oi coal in his mine was SAGA. He also testified that the company sold the same coal for s6 a ton at the tipple f. o. b. mine, which means that the company makes profit over $3 8 ton for every ton of coal you men produce.
 Now If the company really wants somebody to believe it seeks to lower the price of coal isn't it reasonable to ask that the reduction be begun by cutting off some of that profit? 2" Reports coming into Walsenburg tonight from all over the southern Colorado field indicate that about three-fourths of the miners did moi report for work this morning when 8 reduction in wages of approximately 30 per cent went into effect.
 No disturbances had been reported from any point in the district. Company officials tonight said they regarded the situation as encourag- ing, while union leaders said every Colorado Fuai & Iron company mine in the district would be idle by the end of the week
 C. A. Stout, manager of the fue department ot the company, said to- day the company had no intention ot | evicting striking miners from theil l homes. At the meeting this after 1 noon, however. Organizer Foster said | he had been informed to the con- trary and advised the strikers to re- main quietly in the company house! 1 until regular legal steps for theil | eviction had been taken.
