TIIE CASHIER.
The cashier sat at hi* desk, yonder-
inn what he had better do about that
Jones note. He felt sure that Jones
was on the square, but
"Excuse me. Is this the cashier?"
It was a pretty woman of thirty
-who spoke. She was well dressed,
and there was that about her which
caused the cashier to look a second

"Yea, madam."
"I am Mrs. Jenkins My hurband

The cashier looked a third time at
his caller. This time h. scared hard,
and the little woman on the other
aide of the railing looked down at the
tesselated floor.
"Hut is it his account, madam. If
he wants to draw some money. I can't

mtmply, and went away.
The cashier walked over to the rage
of the paying teller and picked up
bis Rheet on which was written the
list of depositors. After the name of
Mr. Jenkins, the husband of the wo
man Who had called on him, ho wrote:
"glop payment on this account un
til my O. K. la secured." Then ho
nigr^d his name and called the paying
tetter's atention to the notation.
An hour later Mr. Jenkins came In

"It doos sound a little Ashy, doesn’t

There was, perhaps, a "slight odor

"Is my account overdrawn?” he de

"No. sir; your balanco is >980."

"You’ll have to see the cashier

conversation hs'd to
then, while, with on
Stella’s to Heady her
free hand to put thoi
they belonged.
First, the deepest one—and
eyes smiled over the next; dowj
went, and now only her laughin
were hidden; then the irapert
tiniest capo of all—and there was an
azure sparkle in her eyes and a new
pink in her cheeks that nothing could
account for except the peculiar shade
of blue of that new coat. Then they
went back to their discussion of ques
tions of the universe.
nut It was different—and it kept on
being different. For the wind blew
every day and they were very old
friends by the time Phil made up his
mind to accept a good business offer
in Pittsburg last fall. They bad phi
losophized over outgrown love affair*
and had told each other why they
were never going to have any more,
with tho frankness of good comrades,
but not a shadow of sentimentality had
ever fatten across their p th until the
very last minute of the night when
Phil said good-by.
Even then, It wasn't much. Phil
finished Ills farewell in a businesslike
manner and went down the steps;
then suddenly r ime back to where she
stood and caught her hands In his.
"Good-by, little blue capes,” he whis
pered. That was all—and as for their
letters since then, anybody might read
them.
Oh, It was platonic, no doubt
haps the surest sign was the fact that,
after Phil was gone, Stella actually
took a little adventure they had had
together and wove It Into a love story,
which she had the luck to sell In
obscure quarter for a small sum
filthy lucre. When It. came back to
her in print she wished she
been so lucky, for the possibility of
Phtt’H ever reading the words she had
made him say In that stcyy gav
a sudden shock. She shuddered as
she remembered the copied wander
ings of certain foolish stories she had
road, but as the weeks went by and
Phil’s matter-of-fact letters kept com
ing she forgot to worry about It.
Then, last week, Phi! came back.
The first evening he catted he Inquired
for tho little blue capes.
"That coat’s in the hall," laughed
Stella. "Want to see It?"
He did—and in a spirit of mischief
she slipped Into it and stoyd smiling
up Into his face. She know in a min
ute what was coming. It was all In
his eyes—poor fellow! For there waa
not a shado^of a chance tor him—not
one. She was trying to think how she
could »ay It In the gentlest, kindest
way when he began to speak.
Suddenly her complacent face turn
ed scarlet and she sat weakly down
on the couch. The awful love story!
Phil waa declaring himself in the lan
guage of It« hero! Mown went her
head Into n pillow and up went the
little blue capes over the flaming
cheeks.
That was exactly what tho girl In
the atory had done—only she had been
In a hammock! Stella remembered
It too late, Phil had taken his cue.
••Dearest." he murmured, folding hfa
hand over the little, nervous one that
was clasping and unclasping itself
against the skirt. There was a silence
—then a stirring under the capes, and,
In spite of his daring, Phil trembled
before tho wrath that might be com
ing. Then another little hand, all wet
with tears, stole from beneath the
capes and went to find Its mate.
It had been the only way Stella
could think of to end the story when
the wrote It, and, to her overwhelm
ing surprise. It was the only ending
•he could think of now!

Chief of the Uklaha.
Charles Penio, tho oldest chief of
the I'kiah tribe, died at Cox Ranchero
recently, and the Indians are now
celebrating a death feast. Penio was
107 years old and ruled the Ukiaha
long before the whito settlers arrived,
and the death of many whites lies at
his door. He was judge and juiy for
tho tribe, but was deposed about
twenty-five years ago for killing Sam
Warden. Warden and another Indian
had quarrelled over a game of cards
and the other Indian was killed.
Pento was sent for and had War
den tied to a tree to be shot. He
dodged the first bullet, which so in
furiated the chief that Ihe seized an
axe and chopped off Warden’s head.
Penio was held In jail for several
months, but none of the Indians could
be induced to testify against him.
Penio had always resented the en
croachment of the whites and waa
considered dangerous. He was buried
(n Indian style, with his pony and war
implements.—Sacramento Bee.
How Two Missouri Towns Got Their

Nearly eighty years ago, when the
Presidential struggle between Clay
end Jackson wm at Cts height. It is
related that a band of emigrants from
Kentucky, and the then other West
ern States, commenced to settle on
the north side of the Missouri River
end called their county Clay and the
county seat Liberty.
At the same time another lot of
emigrants from Virginia and other
Southern States pitched their tents on
the south side of the Big Muddy and
oalled their county Jackson and the
capital Independence. And so It re
mains to tfaCe day. Clay stood for lib
erty and Jackson for independence.

"What?”
"At Shenking. If not there—certain

"Pooh!” responded the pro-Jap.
“They’ll go right to Mukden."
‘‘Well," Insisted the pro-ItUHslan.
“I’ll wager they make a stand at Fen-
Tienfu, anyway."
These names were all new to the
pro-Jap, bo he dld’t take the wager.
And It was well he didn’t, for when
he went to the library and consulted a
map of Manchuria ho found that Fen-
Tienfu, Shenyang, Shenking and Muk

A public school teacher in Balt!
more tells of a district trustee in a
town not far from the Monumental
City who is much Interested In the
disciplinary methods to be used In
case of fire in a school building.
Whenever he, in company with the
examining board, made the rounds of
the various schools, he would Invar
iably put many questions to the pu
pils as to what they would do In case
of fire. In many Instances the teach
ers forestalled him by coaching their
pupils as to the proper replies to such
questions. In one school particular
ly the children had been carefully
prepared In this respect.
One day, however, the trustee var
ied his usual program, and instead of
propounding the customary questions,
decided to address the children on
other topics.
“Now, boys and girls,’’he began,
"what would you do if I were to make
you a little speech?”
With embarrassing unanimity the
pupils eagerly shouted, "We would

Storm Pita In Oklahoma.
It is estimated today from reports
received from various towns in the
“New Country,” that 6,000 cyclone
caves are being used. City officials
and town boards are urging this, and
some of them have passed ordinances
repuiring it. At Hinton Oklahoma,
the following public notice has been
published:
“On nights when clouds look nt all
dangerous, a sentry will be stationed
In the bell tower, provided with a re
peating shotgun. If there Is apparent
danger he will ring the bell nnd fire
n number of shots In quick succes
sion. Also any person sees a storm
coming when the sentry is not so
stationed he will be expected to fire
a gun."
The moral of the above tale Is to
avoid Oklahoma and remain in Geor
gia.
