[ven papa approves of ‘Will along with all the other men.” Then she shivered a little shiver. “But mamma does not take any stock in Will," she thought soberly, “and mamma is the practical one in eur family"” The girl buried her face in the great bunch of roses—they cost the! sender a cold twenty-five dollars—and fooked up defiantly. “Well, why should I not marry Mr. Hadley?" she soliloquized. “He is a man who has demonstrated his ability and |<‘ not an offensive person in any ‘vay."” | Th.n, without apparent excuse she aried out, aloud: “Will never could | Bave sent me these roses—and I love #hem. I love thcm, I Jove them.” Then excrcising her woman's pre- gogative, she sat down and had a good ery. Then she arose, glanced at the it of pasteboard which came with the roses and which bore only the words “Nell--from W. T. H. Wear them tomorrow night,” and went to Aer dainty desk lo acknowledge them. The note Iadley received at his office the ncxt morning puzzled him ot a little, but delighted him a great deal. He never had Dbeen able to pierce the reseive of the girl he de- mired 50 earnestly to marry, and being & keen judge of buman nature he de- tected a warmer and more receptive | zing to her words chan there had been any others she ever had addressed to him. “Roscs," he exclaimed in a puzzled way to himsclf. “There's a mistake gomewhere, but inasmuch as it seems | %0 have warmed her toward me I reckon the way is to say nothing.” The incident so interested him tbat he lost all track of the market and!: made so many mistakes during the day that he came out a considerable loser—an unheard of thing for Walter Hadley. In the meantime the young man who had gone broke to send the roses to the fair Miss Nell, ate his heart away in disappointment at receiving mo word of acknowledgment. Before might he had decided that there was no use trying any longer and had planned a campaign in the Klondike, where he would acquire a fortune or Seave his bones to bleach. Miserable as he was, however, he oould not refrain from sliding into his evening clothes that night and at- tending the ball at the Price's, where he was assured to see the idol of his dreams and his despair. Hadley appeared at the ball early, easy and confident and proceeded im- medlately to take possession of Miss Nellie Ross, whom he found as gra- elous ag her note indicated. Hadley knew well how to avail himself of an| epportunity and before he had talked | to her five minutes she knew that the great question was to be asked and that her answer was to be demanded that night. And she knew what the answer was to be. She was vaguely glad that Will was not there.

Co.J) KISSED FCR Hifule YEED Young Man Saves Girl in Runaway and lIs Affectionately Rewarded for the Act. Cleveland, O.—With romance all about him and the soft spring twilight filled with strolling couples, Harry H. | Christensen walked alone one night and felt himself an outcast until he started to cross Lake avenue at West 110th strect. Then, in a breath, he found himself a hero; was paid for his bravery with a hug and a kiss, and had been shyly invited to call. Screams from a girl, the rapid pounding of hoofs and the rattle of & swiftly drawn carriage reached his ears and as he turned he saw a horse, lines dragging on the pavement, plunging wildly on, with a girl help- less in the vehicle. Christenson, who is young and ath- letic, made a football tackle on the horse’s neck. His hold slipped, but as he fell he grabbed a dangling rein. He rolled aliost beneath the wheels, { but held the rein fast and brought the lorse to a stop against the curb. The young woman Christenson says. When the horse quieted the young woman drove her rescuer to his home, 1561 West 116th street. En route she | confided to hit that she had gone | driving against her parents’ wishes. If he would promise never, never to tell of the incident she would like very much to have him call. He promised. Also he promised, at her request, not to reveal her name. He kept that promise, too. The girl is the daughter of a promi- nent Cleveland business man who lives in Lakewood. Christenson is & real estate salesman. INTO FIRE TO ESCAPE SNAKES Reptiles by the Dozen Entwine Them- selves About Campers, Who Roll Into Flames. Pledmont, W. Va.—George Ensor, & business man of this city, while fish- ing near Mountaindale, was attacked by snakes, which came from a rotten log on which he was sitting. Before he could beat them off the reptiles had entwined themselves about him, binding his arms, hands and feet. The snakes, more than a dozen in number, measured from 4 to 6 feet in length. Mr. Ensor, after vainly endeavoring to work his arms and feet loose, had the presence of mind to roll down a hill into a fire he had built to cook his breakfast. Mr. Ensor ran to the stream and threw himself into the water, extin- guishing his burning clothes, Criminals and Benefits. Following the conviction of Mrs. Jeannie Baxter for manslaughter, the Hadlcy decided that the propitious moment had come and turned to lead Rer to the conservatory.
