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---- •.*'*** C. MsGfIRVEY, 316 Newcastle Street. TRULY "A GRAND OLDWHISKEY” IH3(E!£lfV>>i*i.s a.; '• the famous „ CREAM OF KENTUCKY.

BRUNSWICK, SA,. . > <r‘ Daily Short Story OF THE £ Brunswick News , , * 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.
