SUNDAY MOBNINO
f£ * ’■•■ w
A trunk tournament, in which pygmy prices play an important part—
and we add with emphasis that he who hesitates loses a good trunk It
doesn't matter whether you need a trunk just now—come and sec them
any way. All of these trunks are heavy canvas covered, strong hard
wood slats on ail—some sole leather bound, some iron bound, some have
two leather straps, heavy brass locks, some linen, some two trays with
hat box compartment, two bottoms, one of which is sheet iron, and not
one in the lot but will defy the fiercest baggage smasher that over dung,
kicked or jumped on an unoffending trunk. Some of those trunks are
great, handsome, swell. -.afrfe---- •.*'***

When Station Went 'iast
Dalton entered Mrs. Murray's pur
chases in the daybook and then went
back to bis desk and the letter.
lie drew It from the pigeonhole of
Imitation walnut and turned it slowly
from side to side as if lie wore trying
to match the pale gray tint from Ids
scant ribbon stock. He looked curious
ly at the deeper gray sealing wax. Ho
was always very careful not to break
the seal when he opened her letters.
He liked to study the stately "IP
which hid what she said to him from
Hie bustling, impertinent world.
Not that he lmd received many such
missives. There were just four In all.
and he knew them by heart. He read
this last one slowly and for the third
time:
Frank Dalton, Esq., President School
Board District No. 11:
Sahuache County. Colo.
Dear Sir—Replying to your favor of the
23d, stating that your board had acted fa
,-orabiy on my application liu the Twig
gies school and would allow the salary
which I asked, permit me to say that I
feel that I owe you many apologies.' The
niost urgent reason for my desiring to se
cure a position this summer in Colorado
was an incipient throat trouble which bus
annoyed me for the past year. Recently,
however, It has yielded to treatment, and
with it lias gone this motive for making
the western trip. In addition 1 have been
offered a class In elocution at the Mount
Clement summer school, an opportunity
for acquiring some small reputation
which X feel that I should not miss.
Knowing full well that there Are scores of
worthy applicants for sueti an opening as
your board offers, I am availing myself
of a woman's privilege and changing my
mind. In other words, I withdraw my
application for the Twlgglns school. .Par
don my thus going Into details, tint you
have been so courteous, I may almost say
so cordial. In your correspondence over the
matter, that I feel a full explanation Is
due You. Again expressing my apprecia
tion of your kindness, 1 remain, yours
faithfully, ELIZABETH HARDIN.
Dalton folded the letter, laid it re
gretfully on the desk and sat with ids
hands plunged deep in his pockets.
There were no customers lu the store
to Interrupt his meditations. Even the
straight, uncompromising Main street
beyond the door was steeped In the
calm of the sweet spring day. Ranch
nifn were home plowing, mid no wag
ons rolled In noisily from mesa am) riv
er land. But Dalton was not worrying
about the lack of trade. He was think
ing of fhe giil who bad written ttiat
letter.
Elizabeth Hardin! She bad been rec
ommended tf> the board by an eastern
teachers’ agency, and Frank had been
instructed to conduct the correspond
ence. From tile very first letter bo had
boon interested in her personally, and
when the salary she named was be
yond the appropriation made by the
board for Twlgglns school lie had
calmly announced that the district was
growing and needed belter teachers,
and if the board wouldn’t pay Miss
Hardin the salary she wauled lie
would make up the difference. The
children of Twlgglns Corners must be
given modern educational advantages.
And the remainder of Ibe board, real
izing that the male voters of Twlgglns
Corners were an uncertain element In
county elections, finally acquiesced,
and Miss Hardin was “called.” Dal
ton, nervously lingering the bit of gray
stationery, felt that fate had been cru
el in thus requiting bis temerity in co
ercing the members of school district
No. 11.
He walked out the side door and
mounted the steep stairs leading to the
second door. Lately Dalton had been
figuring with Tompkins, the carpenter,
on building Inside stairs, but somehow
this afternoon he did not care where
they ran. He entered the carpetless
hall and threw open the door to Ids
“front room,” overlooking the street,
and stared silently at its familiar crim
son, with Just a dash of olive green.
The woodwork was painted dark green,
and the carpet was red. Dalton had se
lected tills much and a shiny oak organ
before Ids sister Mary bad come out
from Massachusetts to keep house for
him. l’ut Mary had turned homesick
before the year rolled round and had
left Dalton to care for as best lie might
the four rooms he had furnished so
proudly.
lie looked at them now, wondering
vaguely what was wrong. A coml'ort
olde Morris chair stood in one corner,
but tlie moths had eaten great holes In
its cushions. He could write Ids name
in the dust on the center table, with its
| old rose plush album. Flyspeeks
> adorned the photographs lie had
j tacked on Phe wall. A sudden feeling
j of desolation swept over the man.
1 What did it matter that he held public
1 office, that he was always referred to
in the Sahuache Eagle as “our success
ful young merchant” or that at the
1 last fair of Union church he laid been
voted the most popular bachelor in La
drone? What mattered anything so
long as Elizabeth Hardin had declined
to tcacli Twlgglns Corners’ school?
The very next morning he said to
bis bead clerk:
“Herman, do you reckon you could
handle this store if I went back cast
next month? I haven't seen the old
folks for five years.”
And Herman reckoned that he could.
The summer school at Mount Clem
ent was in full sway when Dalton ar
rived. He took a room at the leading
hotel and then quietly started out on
his quest. At the first newsstand he
TfiEiaBRONSWIOIC DAILY NEWS-
pickeri tip a copy or tm Mriuxlt Clem
ent Educator, devoted to the interests
of the summer school. The* frontispiece
was the picture of a tall, jviilowy girl,
dressed in a sweeping evening gown.
Under the picture were the lines, “Miss
Elizabeth Hardin, the accomplished
young elocutionist, who is delighting
Mount Clement audiences this sum
mer.”
Dalton walked back to liis room like
one in a dream. And this glorious crea
ture was Elizabeth Hardin, whom he
lmd pictured us a gentle, clinging crea
ture In need of protection against a
cold and unfeeling world, the sort of
woman who would fit snugly Into his
four rooms above the store at La drone,
this girl who was delighting fashion
able eastern folks and who could have
her picture cover the whole page of a
paper! Dalton did not know that Miss
Hardin had paid $23 for that frontis
piece nor that at this very moment she
was sitting in her room at a cheap
boarding house figuring on the sum
mer's expenses, the cost of now frocks,
photographs and advertising. She
would not clear $5, and then what?
Another winter in a New York school
room with fifty cast side children.
Half an hour later 110 found her and
sent up Ills card, written by a man who
had a stand on the corner.
Miss Hardin was startled. In a (lush
s|n> recalled the name, tho Twlgglns
school and the correspondence. Would
he have on leather "clmps,” spurs and
a belt full of revolvers? She entered
the parlor with some trepidation. A
tall, square shouldered man, well
groomed and clad in dark blue serge,
rose to greet her. She almost laughed
at her recent misgivings, and tho
thought brought a pretty flush to her
cheeks, anew light to her tired eyes.
He never knew just how lie managed
it, but that night Dalton escorted her
homo from the concert. She wore the
marvelous dress 110 had seen 111 the pic
ture, and she gathered it up daintily ns
they walked In the moonlight. He felt
as If some explanation of ids presence
were due, and finally lie plunged into
It.
“You see. Miss Hardin, I thought
perhaps you’d change your mind about
the school If I just could talk to you.
Perhaps you’d like to come out next
summer anyhow. I’ve always pictured
you so sort of different, hut now of
course 1 understand. You wouldn’t like
it out there no mailer liow much we
might want you.”
He was looking down at the chiffon
ruffle on her gown, which billowed like
white foam around her feci. An odd
smile trembled on her lips: something
very like a tear shone in her eye. She
bad read his thought as in an open
book.
“Perhaps you are mistaken, Mr.
Dalton. I think I would like <'olorailo,
and if the position is open next sum
mer 1 may come.”
They were passing through a small
grove. Dalton slopped short and gazed
Into her face.
“if It's open! Why, Mfks Ilardin, of
course it will always le open for you!”
Then ho added in a lower voice, “But
next summer is a long way off!”
Elizabeth sighed softly, and a far
uway look came into her eyes as if she
were scenting the keen mountain air
and the <’olorailo pines.
“Yes, a long, long way!”
Then Dalton forgot her picture in the
paper forgot the imposing frock. lie
remembered only tjie little gray note
signed “Faithfully yours, Elizabeth ;
Hardin”- and the sigh.
What happened next is not herein
set forth, hut western men are noto
rious for acting promptly.
This summer another elocutionist de
lighted the visitors at Mount Clement,
and her picture adorned the first page
of the Mount Clement Educator, but in
Frank Dalton's Colorado home anew
cushion has replaced the one of moth
eaten velvet in the Morris chair,
there's a drawn work cover instead of
dust on the center table, and a stair
way has been built from the inside of
the store.
