Except with him she THE TEACHERS AT FARWELL {The Cetifornian.} Miss Brace walked down one of the four dusty streets, dustily shaded by midsummer locust trees, that made up the town of Farwell, ‘The sun-bonnet@d children across the street had no hesitation In suaping their comments on the unknown lady in grey linen according to the theory that she waa the new teacher: ‘Miss Bruce was always recognized as a teacher at the first glance. She had the worn face, the anxious expression, the constrained manhers of an experienced lady teacher. She nad taught gechool, however, but three years, and was only twenty years old; but since "she had spent those three years in abject terror of school- children, parents, trustees and principals, she passed for twenty-five. Milas Bruce never could keep a school in decent order, and was helpless before any ordinary boy; nevertheless, by one of those complete divorces between fact aGd thecry not uncommon in tne public mind, sbe had somehow stumbled into the reputa— Uon of being a most efficient disciplinarian, abd, so much more potent is reputaiion than reality, she had kept it. “Get a name for ris- ing early, and you may lie abed till noon.” When she came to Farwell, some one who had known her before had summed her up by say- tpg to Mr. Farwell: “a regular old maid—no acquisition to your | to-his with the most He and she rose, and they stood few minutes without aking. Then he sald, with a slightly accent: “Good-bye, then, for aweek ortwo, I shall the train to-morrow.” TA He took her hand in both his, without wait- ing for herto hold it out. She raised ewer. As soon as he had turned the bend in the yath Kate went to her upper window and watched him walk up the street, past the School house, till the street became a road stretching fat away, between the two lines of bluish eucalyptus, toward the foot hills. About aquarter ofa mile up the road he passed :n among Mr. Martin’s orchard trees and disap- peared. She was crying a little, but she rather enjoyed doing so, and her mind was much oc- cupied with the ae conveyed by that question about her address, But Graham was in a mucn less comfort- able frame of mind, and one that would have much surprised her if she could have seen into it. As she watched him along the road, lie was saying to himself, with a sudden reaction of ‘Good heavens, I’ve been going copfoundedly And the next morning, during the monotony society. But she can manage any scn02L.” The school-yard gate yawned open, and Miss Bruce entered it in full sympathy with the spirit of the Dantean inscription, and walked across the white, hard-trodden Pao A group of boys, falling back a ilttle from her path, greeted her with a chorus of perfectly gratuit- ous yelling and jeering. Ste had not taught school three years with- cut learning what such a sélutation meant. She looked at the impish group with dismay that amounted to a positive sense of physical iilness, and thought, *A bad principal! I'm in for it now.” She even conceived the possibii- ity of retreating and throwing up her position; but, With @ consciousness of necessity upon her, she walked on across the barrea yard. The dead and seedy mallows in the corners lcoked very dead indeed; the whitish August sky stooped over a stretch of dusty cottages, and mown fields, and a road edged with blue- gums In the ghastly color of their second year’s growth: the school- house, new- ha , WIE | main building for the principal and’a little wing for the assistant, confronted her a3 uain- villugly as a dentist's chair. She found Mr. Farwell in the entry before her, standing against a background of Un palls acd giris’ straw hats. Mr. Farwell was tne leading trustee, There was a@ stranger with bim—a good-looking, youngish man, with pleasant brown eyes. “This fs rather a surprise to you, Miss Bruce,” Mr. Farwell said. He used the bland tone that Miss Bruce asso- clated with the first day of school, as if trus- tees were polite spiders, ushering her into their par lors. Per bad a telegram this very morning, atter breakfast, saying that Mr. Drake, whom you bave met, and whom we liked so much, tso’t coming ck. I see bythe paper that the stock he’s been ta is up, and I presume he’s tmadea good deal, and that’s why he deserig us. 1 went to hunt up the other trustees, and at Martin’s I found Wife's cousin, just out from the East, and thinks of teaching a year or two. So we copeeee him on the spot, and here he ls, Mr. Graham, this is Miss Bruce. He's new to the business, Miss Bruce; so you, being a Leal Toust put him up to the tricks of the trade. Miss Bruce took it entirely as a matter of course that she should be the one presented. She acknowledged the introduction with her usual BUM shyness, and Mr. Farwell depatted to preside over a special meeting of his Grange, which was, at that time, acting under a deep sense of responsibility about the affairs of tae State University. After the function of the higher education had been seitied satisfactorily and the meeting dissolved, he reverted to the lower education, and remarked informally to his netghbors: “We've got 4 teacher now that’s going to manage those boys. You should have seen the leok she gave the Riley and Carter boys, and the rest of that set, when they holiored at her a5 she came into the yard.” But when Miss Bruce and her principal had walked into the little, ill-lighted assistaat’s room, where the crowded desks, the table and blackboards, and charts, had a famlilarly de- pressing effect, Mr. Graham sald: “Was the regretted Mr. Drake a friend of yours, Miss Bruce!” Miss Bruce had taken off her hat and hung ft On a chalky nail by the blackboard. She sat down now, behind the chalk-boxes, the big oc and the bell, that were ranged on the able. “No, sir,” she sald, respectfully; “I didn’t know him.” Mr. Graham looked down {nto her face with the genUeness of maneer acquired in a society Where women are protected and peited and eferred to, Miss Bruce’s “sir,” and her appa- Tent consciousiess of subordination, struck aim as rather pathetic, and somewhat emphasized his manner, “Then I may say what I think about his training of bis pupils. If you can only over- look It for a few days, you shan’t be annoyed by aby more impertinence in a school-yard where I bave authority. Ishould be sorry not Wo protect a lagy who teaches with me Detter than our predeeessor seems to have done.” Protection was quite out of the line of Kate Bruce’s experience. She looked up quickly, and met a reinforcing kindliness of eyes and lips. The tone and look were no more than the every-day experience of some women; but it Me | actually tne first time Kate Bruce had been looked at or spoken to tn just that way, and there sprung to her face i response, through all her bxed expression of apxious reserve, a quick appeal—as if she had cried, “Ah; yes, ao be gocd to me!” Mr. Graham continued to look at her, with a deepening sense of pathos. His mental comment on this seif-reliant and effi- Clent assistant of bis was, “Poor child’’—and his intentions for the coming term responded exactly to her unspoken appeal. School-teaching was no such dreadful matter after all, Miss Bruce found, when there is an autborliative kindness between one and all the bugbears. Week after week, and month after mocth, in the intimate intercourse of a work that isolated them together—there could be but ope result. Kate Bruce wanted from the bot- tom of her heart to be taken care of, and Mr. Graham took care o: her, She had ail her lite KEOWD none but people who were neither wise, Lor witty, nor weil bred, and Mr. Granam was all three. It was as inevitable as that two and two should come to four that she should fad in him the Lord’s Intention tn making mankind Ulustrated. In time, his unvarying gentleness and sympathy won her out of ‘her frightened SUffness Into a pretty openness. When the last shame-facedly away, or the last Decrimped girl bad exhausted her excuses for lageriag, Kite | Would slip into Mr. Graham’s school-room, and he wouid come ard @f on one of the desks ‘and she in tbe pupil's vacant seat behind It; and a3 she laughed, and colored, and cuatted, at once shyly 202 confidingly, admired bis joxes im- menstly, aud accepted his advice im-icitly, the five extra years dropped away from her, and she locked both young and pre.ty. But was faded, dull and twenty-five. To Geoffrey Graham It was a very differont | matter.

Nevertheless, to hold the power | | | \ to create for yourseif out of an untoterestng, fading school-mistress a pretty, bright young girl, and to be the one person ta the world wno Goes Lold it, ts fascluating; and Graham's In- | tention to be very kind to His assistant kept his consclence so Cléar that he let the fascluation carry bira pretty .af—so far, indeed, that the ready Village gossip decided, before the eud of the Year, that “it was a match.” “Fuppy taste,” Mr. Farwell said. “Miss | Bruce was cut cutfor an oldmald. Pity for a likely JOubg than like Graham to pick that sort cf awoman. I can’t make out what he sees in er.” But Mrs. Farwell liked the match. She re- sponded rather warmly: “she’s a dear, good girl, if she 13 old matdish and not pretty. 1 hope she iil! got a guod bus- band, and I kbow she'll maxe a ood wife. She = exactly bright company, but I’m real food of her. Middie-aged and ola women always likea Kate on close acquainiance; and, as soe toarded with Mrs. Farwell, there had been op- portunity enough for such acquatatance. But the school-year came to an end, and the epgagement between the teachers wag still only & matter of inference, The last day of the session passed, and tbe children were dismissed fortwo months. |Grabam walked home with Kate, aid sat down witp her on Mr. Farwell’a | broad stone door-step. The summer a*ternoon | winds had begun to blow, aod a big caerry tree by the step rustled steadily auu showed its Reavy dark-red clustres. The gravel walk, bordered with shrubs, beat before it reached the gate, 0 the low-drooping appie, plum and pear trees that stretched away from the walk on either side hid the street from view; but the children scattered along it mad¢ their sense of freedom exultantly audible. Graham sat looking at Kate, as he often d in a way that seemed to imply that ie was thinking a goed many things about ker that he did not expect her to met his eyes, however, his look vecaaab jess observant and more defluitely friendly. “Are you going to stay here all aaa : oe : vacation? “Yes, I suppose so.” Kate’s voles quite steady, for sre was having the new rs Perience of a melancholy side to the close of a ‘school term. Grahata continued to look at her musingly, “I bave a little plece of bustness to see to up country. A friend of mine E:st wants me to Be, ard talk to @ man In Shasta about some information he can give in an important will case. It will only take two weeks or 80 at of the railroad trip, he went uncomfortavly enough over the whole affair. “How did I ever let that little girl get such a hold on me?” he meditated. “Why, {iis in- credible.” He returned to that “incredible” afresh at every period of his thoughts. It was incom- Prehensibie to him how this insignificant little school mistress, ignorant according to his Standards, utterly without social prestige, as she was, could move him as other womea had not. There was Kittie Bradford, who read a dozen Greek dramas with him one summer, and Isabel Halyburton, who carried in her blue eyes and little dimpled hands more social po- tenoy than any dozen other women, and Caryl Fairfax, who showed in every motion that her blood had been brought to pertection by a sort of straining through the veins of innumerable high-bred aneestors—and at this point Gra- ham flushed darkly. What of Kate Bruce's ancestors and antecedents? He had never asked her any questions about thom, nor had she offered any information. It did not follow that because Graham had a cousin who had mar- Tied Mr. Martin, of Farwell, he was himself at all tke Mr. Martin, He had himself regarded the connection with some amusement, as one of the mcongruities that will creep into Amer- ican families. His own antecedents were of a sort that made the probable commonness of Kate’s something Intolerably annoying to nim. ‘There was7n0 di lng the fact that he had somehow let her me so much to him that if she had come out of such a past as he should Wish his wife's past to be, he would have asked her to marry him without hesitation, “So, there's the question,” he thought, “ShallI follow my fancy, and woo a woman who, delicate as she seems, may show in tine traces of all sorts of vulgar early influences— or ehall I throw up the whole thing like a sen- sible man?” Nevertheless, he fulfilled his tacit promise, end wrote to her a few days after teaching Shasta, and allowed himself, in writing, an undertone of tenderness that produced after- ward In himself another reaction of alarm and inclination to be shy of Miss Bruce. Meanwhile, Kate began to wonder if he might not write twice, and went very puactu- ally tothe post office. The office was in a gro- cery, hardware, dry goods and general store, ard there were always men gossiping there. One day, as Kate asked for her mall, two stran- gers stood leaning over the counter, renewing acquaintance with the clerk, The taller one straightened up and stared at Kate as she re- ceived her mati at the farther end of the counter. “By George, do you know who that ts, Joe?” he asked, speaking just iow enough to escape Kate's ear. * ‘The cther man stared too. “Rose Hever, by thunder!” he exclaimed with much emphasis. snow Hever, that’s sure!” the tall man re- ed. ‘The clerk had returned to his placein time to catch the point of what was sald. “No, you're out there, Banting,” he sald. “That's the school teacher, Mis3 Bruce. Been here a year; seems to be engaged to the princi- pal—ciever fellow, name Graham.” Thetwo strangers glanced sympathetically at cach other, “Now, if that ain’t Rose Hever all overr’ Banting exclaimed; and then went on, explan- atorly, “Not much ‘Miss’ about /er—been a married woman this five years.” . Hie turned for corroboration to his less volu- ble companion, who answered the look by say- ing: “Heard long ago, up at Stockton, that she was down country somewhere, sailing under another Lame. Oh, that’s the girl, Somebody bad oy op to tell that fellow she’s engaged to before he gets himself into a scrape.” All the men in the store were ‘thered around. It was much more interesting that Miss Bruce should be some one else than that she should be Miss Bruce. Tato the circle walked Mr. Farwell. “Hear that, Farwell?” the clerk called, eager to be the first to tell; and in a minute the story Was repeated to him, Banting added, in a sort of postscript: “Oh, I knew her weil. a at Stockton, five yearsago, she married a fellow by the name of Wilkinson—she was Rose Hever ten; and in about ejght months she ran of witha quack doctor. ‘Ten the doctor left her in a mouth or two; so (ken we heard she got a certificate, some four years ago, wader another name, ani Went to teaching. Wiikineson himself don’t know where she 1s; but taere’s never been a divorce, for I know the man well—been his commission merchant for years—and Joe, here, raised Gucks with old Hever. I've seen her with her husband often. She looks older now, of course. How old is she? “She was twenty-five when we engaged her,” Mr. Farwell said, posiilsely; “sha must be’ twenty-six now.” He had set her down at that age in his mind, and could not have been more certain about it it he had been her father. “Old Hever told me Rose was twenty-one ae she married—that’s five years ago,” said ‘One of the larger school boys contributed his item: “Miss Bruce’s certificate !s dated four years ago. I saw it im the report in the school brary.” “Rough on Graham,” two or three sald. Mr. Farwell looked intensely out of temper. He prided himeeif on bis selection of teachers, wshe's an excellent teacher,” he sald. He had two distinct methods of diction, one when he spoke as an officer, and one wien he spoke a8 a man, and he used ‘his official diction now. “But of course this unfits her for our school. Her husband should be communicated with.” “He's just gone East—I don’t know whera- abouts—and the Hevers have gone to Oregon somewhere.” ‘Mr. Farwell turned away. “I will speak with the other trustees,” he sald. When the other trustees were fourd, Mr. MarUn Was ready enough to be outraged at the position into which his wife’s cousin Was put. “We always thought Geoffrey was throwing himself away on that old mald,” hesatd, “We never could see what he savin her; but it wecin he’s just been roped fa. Such women know bow to go to work. ‘I'll write to him,sure asa gun, by the next mall.” Kate knew very soon that something was wrong. Her puptis met ber with an insolent msnner.every one spoke to her with constraint. “There 18 some dissatisfaction; I am going to lose my position,” she thought, using the words that have become a mournful formula in scheol-teaching ranks. Her courage had all gone with Gratam, and trustees and parents and echool children were again terrible. But, most alarming of all, the allotted two weeks had passed, aud Graham had nether returned hor sent her apy explanation of his absznce, ‘The two weeks had become three before any one “spoke to her;” for vacation time cost Dothing, and Mr. Farwell was trying to get_ his wife to do the speaking. But Mra. Farwell s.eadily refused, “Youll have to speak to her yourself. I won't have anything to do with it I suppose she can’t Keep on in the school after being talked about so; but it’s my belief that if the poor girl did rub away from her huaband there Was more to it than we know and she had good ea ‘Maybe she’s told Mr. Graham all about ta So Mr. Farwell at last called Miss Bruce into the parior, sat down opposite her, prefaced his business with something about disagreeable auty, and told her the troubie. “You must see, Miss Bruca,” he ended, “that even if the story 18 not true, as we ail hope, still, What ire have totnink of 1s the good of the rchoo!l, and you could hardly teacn here successfully now.

Mrs. Farwell,at the door, begged her to come to dinner, and had no answer. The room grew darker,and then the moon roae, and a great patch of white light overspread the prostrate girl; there were shadows of leaves on her hair from the cherry tree by the stone step. Nellie Farwell came and sat on the step to recite a Scripture lesson to her father, for Mr. Farwell was a religious man, the eole Eider of the little Presbyterian Church; her clear childish voice came up to Kate. “For a@ small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will T gather thee. . O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest and noi comforted! Benold I will tay thy stones with Uae OOOrS, and lay thy Joundations with sap- phires,” She did not know it very well, and kapt re- ating it. “O thou amicted, tossed with tem not comforted! behold I will tay with fat colors, and tay thy fountations with sapphires,” Kate rose up from the floor, drew her car- tain, bathed her eyes and lighted her ia ap. After all, what was there to despairover? Was 1t not the natural resource in trouble to appeal to Mr. Graham and have everything stralznt- ened? She knew his address; she could write as well as Mr. Martin, “in, Gpauam:—They say that I sm some one €lae—a woman thst was married and ran away. And I can’t provethatI am-not.

She thought she had made an irresistibly strong appeal; it was the first great transgres- sion of her habitual reticence and shyness that she had evermade. And it was so impossibie to regard Graham as anything but a source of all good; that she met people’s looks, after mati- = her ‘little note, with a triumphant con- sclousness of a secret resource. Four days was ample time for an answer; but none came, She was fairly ill with suspense every time the mall came in. One week passed, and two weeks, and no letter.” * Miss Bruce looks ten years older since that story came out,” people sald. Indeed they did Not find her very agreeable to look at, for ane went about in dead silence, without the least effort to disguise the expression of her face, and let her eyes and lips wear as wild ani strained & look as if she were umer a surgeon's knife. She was not 80 much willing that others should see her feelings, as absolutely indiffer- ent to the existence, almost unaware of the existence, of any one in the world except Mr. Graham; she stared at the passer-by with the same open blankness of misery as at the chairs and table in her room. She lett the Fareelis, abd went to the little hotel, where she was under no obligation to be civil to any one. There she cowered in her room from morning to night, and waited vaguely for Grahan’s return. One evening some one spoke her name close under her window. * What cas de Miss Bruce's, or Mrs, Wilkin- ‘son’s, idea in staying in Farweil?” It, was Mr. Martin’s voice that answered. Why, she’s waiting for Geoffrey Graham, of course; but he knows all about her now, to my knowledge, and he won't come back as long as she’s here, I’ve let him know she’s hanging round, and I shall let him know when she e3,”" They passed on in the twilight; they had not known it was her window they were near. Inside the room, Kate sprung up from her chair, and threw up her arms with an abandon that solitude and a culminatior of feeling will betray the most undemonstrative people into. She felt so overwhelmingly hurt that she hardly knew if it was het mind or body. She paced the room half the night. It was evident enough that she must go; but where? To the bottom of the bay? She played with that idea. The name she would leave behind was a matter of perfect indifference to her. What had a girl to do with self-respect who had written such a letter and had it depised? She pictured that Woman meeting Mr. Graham some time, when she herself had been years dead, and then he would know that it was not she, and he would besorry for her. But she knew very well that she would never voluntarily leave the world while he was in it. Somehow, Neille Farwell’s Bible lesson was repeating itself in her head to the time of her pacing feet—over and over—"O Cau ofiicted, tossed with tempest and not com- for ted—tossed with tempest and not comforted! —benoia I willtay thy stones with Jair cov and lay thy fowations with sapphires.” ‘The next: afternoon Kate was ready to leave Farwell. It wasso nearly time for school to open, that she was seized with a dread of their comihg to ask her to go that Mr. Graham might come back, and she hurried to be away betore they should come; but, Just as she locked her trunk, Song’s soft step came along the passurey and his rap sounded at the door. She ope: to the clean, white drilling-apron and smiling face, “Oh, Mi’ Bluce, one man wan’ see you—in him parlor.” Weil, it did not matter much after all. She walked down the narrow p: and into the stuffy little parior—all in dark grey, with thin cheeks and drawn lips, and great purple hol- lows under her eyes. She looked like an invalid thirty-five yearsold. She came languidly into the room, and did not raise her eyes. Some one turned sround from the window and steppea quickly forward—some one with kind brown eyes and both hands extended. “Did you think I had settled in Shasta? Such & time as | have had chasing that man through Post-officeless wilds and trackless mountains! I found him among the Indians in Modoc County.” He must have deliberately ignored her ap- pare for it was impossible not to notice It, ut, when, instead of answering, she shrunk back and stared at_him wildly, it was Impossi- bie to pretend not to notice it, He dropped his air of hot knowing that anything was the mai- ter, and came close toher. He took her two hands in his, very softly, and held them. “J did not dream I should be gone so long,” he Said, giving the words an intonation tat implied that there was a great deal of meaning” in them somehow. Kate stood passive for nearly a minute, and kept her eyes on bis, while the rigidity of her face slowly relaxed Sudéenly coloring palnfully,she pulied away her hands, “Have you heard?” she sald, almost In a whisper. He looked straight into her eyes and smiled. “T heard sometuing at the station that made me come straight to find you,” he said. “I always knew youl needed someboay to take care of you, and I’m surer than ever now.” She looked at him in a bewildered way. “ But—Mr. Martin wrote.” “ Dye been out of reach of post-oftices. His letters will bring up at the dead-letter office.” She stood and thought it over a moment; and then she suddenly broke down, and sank Into a chair, tremo Mop ane sobbirg. * Oh, I thought you belleved it, I thought you believed it! ” she cried, You didn’t come—and I wrote to you. I couldn’ bear it.” “You wrote,” he cried, regretfully, ‘‘about this? And I was away off in the mountains!” He came closer to her, and, as she rose in- stinctively, he took her in his arms. “You poor little girl,” he said; “you poor little girl!” She clung to him tightly. and drew a long breath. He stood and looked down at her a few moments. “Child, I will tell you the truth,” he said. “T could not make up mind—i had not made it up when I got off the train to-day. But when the men there came to me witb their foolish story, tae thought of my little girl wandering round in this cruel world with- Out me, and being abused, came over me 80 intolerably that 1 knew there was nothing I should ever care forso much as the right to take care of her always.” Kate looked up at him in awe. “Then, if it hadn’t been for this—’ He laughed and kiszed her. “Who knows? As to the Stockton woman, and the question if you be you, don’t waste another thought on that. It will be straightened out quickly enough. You can’t get along with- out me,can you?” There was a little noise at the door, and Song stood there with dust-pan and broom. “Ob, Mi’ Bluce. I gue’ now you go ’way, le’ me sweep,” be sald. Servants were not well trained in Farwell. Graham laughed, and he drew Kate's arm through his, keeping herhaud. They walked Out together, and stood on the door-stey ‘Westward, across miles of yellow stubble-feid, the rim of bay ahowed white in the afcernoon sun. and the mountains beyond were almost hidden ina thin, warm Nellie Farwell came by, with her hands full of Tod roses. Kate reached out her hand, and put it - ingly on the child’s shoulder. s biaae she sald, ‘‘can you repeat for Mr. Graham the Bible lesso1 had several weeks n you ago, about ‘O thou aflicted, tossed with tem- ead and not comforted! *” wed ellie fixed her round eyes on Mr. Graham, and recited the rb; in her un- comprehending, ten-year-old voice, and went on homeward to ask her mother what it all meant.
