Daisy May thought him a very nice young man as he seated himself at her side in the trolley. It was the only vacant seat in the last car going to the city and though Uncle Dexter was emphatic in advising against entering into conversation witli strangers, Daisy May found herself unequal to snubbing this pleasant young man's polite advances. He had been so kind about adjusting the window to just the proper opening and had offered his paper with immediate self-efface ment. Daisy May regarded him furtively as he pretended to read. He was not much older than herself, she thought, and had a frank, open countenance. “More robberies," commented the young man. “Ever see anything like it? Regular ‘holdups’ everywhere, can t be safe walking down the street.” He flashed a sunny smile at her. “Better hold on to your purse when you reach the city,” he admonished. "I will,” answered Daisy May. “Uncle Baxter warned me about that. Not that they'd get much money,” she added laughingly. She had been commissioned to take two diamonds to the city to have them reset in a ring. The ring was to be a gift for herself, but this Daisy May did not know. Site snapped the tasseled bag to gether and rode on for some time in silence. But the young man’s eyes were upon her, she felt them con sciously. When he offered his magazine she accepted it witli a remorseful smile. How utterly unreasonable to suspect every stranger of thieving motives. The usually tiresome trolley trip passed by as if on happy wings. Daisy May was regretful that at its finish she would seethe young man no more. His regret was evident. With suc ceeding miles his gay spirits Vanished and he grew sadly serious. “I suppose,” he suggested tentative ly, “there'd be no such luck as meet ing you occasionally on this same train.” "1 do not.” Daisy May severely in formed him, “continue acquaintance witli persons to whom I have not been Introduced.” The young man relapsed promptly into the depths of despair. Daisy May opening the bag a little later for a last precautionary glance at Aunt Cynthia's pin, gave a quick startled cry, the pin was not there. In troubled haste she turned to her moody companion. “My diamond pin is gone,” she mur mured. “You saw it in my bag a few moments ago. did you not ?” The young man looked deliberately into her excited face. “I saw nothing in your bag.” he in sisted. Daisy May gasped. She had been so sure that he had. The conductor com ing along at that moment was made aware of her distress. Carefully, cushioned seats and floor were examined. The pin was not to be found. Tlie young man obligingly entered into ihe search. Daisy May sat per plexed and baffled. "The diamonds were very valuable." she said hopelessly, “and the pin was not my own.” Surrounding passengers arose, shak ing their wraps and overcoats. “Pins sometimes fly about,” they said. An Italian nearby vindicating!.? turned his pockets inside out, offer ing ills coat to be searched. But the nice young man made no examina tion of his clothing, silently returning to his seat and paper. “Your coat please?” the conductor demanded, “the pin may have become fastened upon it." But the conductor did not shake out the coat’s folds, instead his hand passed into a deep gaping pocket and when he drew it out again the gleam ing pin lay in his palm. Daisy May leaned tensely forward while the young man’s questioning eyes never left her face. “Thank you,” she said nt last quiet ly, and took the pin. Tlie conductor bent over her. “This man should be forced to ex plain how the pin came to be in his possession,” he said. But Daisy May smiled. “It really does not matter,” she re plied. “the yoqng man Is with me.” When the conductor had gone her seat companion turned toward her. "Why did you say that?” he demand ed. “Why should you try to shield me when you believe I ant guilty?" “I know that you are not guilty," Daisy May said slowly. •“! would know that you were not, against all evidence. Do not ask me to explain why. I be lieve in you, that’s all.” The young man stooped to pick up a gray ball of a glove which had rolled beneath the seat. He gave it to her. “You threw the pin out of your bag probably when you opened it to get this,” he said, “and my wide gaping pocket caught the thing; but after all this, you’ve got to learn to let me know you better, “When I first looked into your face I said to mvself: ‘There's’ the one girl in the world for you, .Tack Tem ple.’ And your believing in me like that, ‘against al) evidence,' ‘against all the world,' 1 might say, proves that I was right.” “All out,” called the conductor. And two happy-faced young people passed down the steps. <6e»yrt<ht, 19U, Western Newspaper Union) AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER. Crisp Grand Jury To Seek Church Burners CORDELE, Sept. 30.—Judge O. T.
