Baltimore, Marylana, o e OO OO X OO X S VINNIE DALE'S NOTE By GEORGE ELMER COBB. “It's a rather forlorn proposition,” remarked Biggs, the only lawyer in the frontier town of Sierra. “I have already taken that view of the case,” responded Maurice Allen in & rather gloomy tone. “Too bad you wasted the time and money coming way out Mere. If you have four thousand dollars cask you can fix it up.” “I have scarcely four thousand cents,” replied Maurice definitely. “Still, I am not sorry that I came,” he added to himseif, and the thowght :“.‘Nlflt & brighter expression: to his “Yeu see,” explained the: lawyer, “the Triumph mine is pemalized for two thousand five hundred’ dolfars. Thea there are some outside clatms against it. There:is still ax equity of redemption, but 1t runs for eniy thirty days” “I eannot raise the money,” declared Maurice. “Miss Dale, as you ¥now, has | 5o means. We will'have to let thie prop- | erty go by default.” As Maurice left the attormey's office and rather gloomily walked along the Poor streets of thie primitive: mining settlement he hada deal to accupy his thoughts. His father had dled.im the east a few months previous; leaving Darely enough te pay his debts. Only one possible asset was discovered—a half interest in the Triumph: mine at Sierra. His partner in that enterprise bad been Samuet Dale. Maurice had come west to see it there was anything tangible to the proposition. ™ was to. find Samuel Dale dead and his daaghter Vinnie teaching the one school in the dis- trict. He found Xer as helpless as himselt in the way eof finances. He marveled to discover this educated girl, the graduate of a high class eastern col- lege, amoeg such crude environment. In fact she and himself were about the only persens in the settlement of any refinement and culture. He was interested in her the mo- ment he met her, and her sad story won his deepest sympathy and regard. It appeared that her father was an old friend of the father of Maurice, who had financed the mine. Its value was undeniable, but Mr. Allen had died at, a time when more capital was needed, and Mr. Dnhhlohbvllucth 1914, 1 | i “Won't You First Let Me Deliver a Letter | Have for Yout” strain of hard work and worry, and dled also. He left a few debts. His daughter had become surety for these and was nobly striving to pay them oft before she went to relatives and an- other school position nearer civiliza- tion. The little township school had just been dismissed as Maurice reached it. Vinnie came out to look up as he ap- proached. She greeted him with her | usual sunny, friendly smile. They sat down on the long bench just outside the door of the rude log structure. “l am through,” sald Maurice, blankly. “It {8 a question of several thousand dollars, and of course neither of us can arrange for that.” “I am sorry,” replied Vinnie, sadly, ‘‘more ou your account than my own, because it was your father's money that s lost in the mine. To the last my father belleved that the sinking of fifty feet more of tunnel would un-| gover a rich vein.” “And from What I learn tlut 1 true,” sald Maurice. “Well, we must bear our disappointment. I am going to return to my old work. I would feel much happier, Miss Dale, if circum- stances were so that you could leave "an environment so unsuited to your tastes and deserts.” i "“Oh, I am quite contented here,” de- clared Vinnie brightly. “Besides, I shall soon have paid up the few debts of my poor father. You—you will not remain here much longer, then?" She flushed slightly as she observed i that the eyes of Maurice were fixed | upon her as she asked the question. “It is useless for me to remain,” he replied soberly. “My work calls me home.” “There are good people here,” said nnfe. “They have been very kind 0 me. It is not like the old times when my father came here. The chil- dren are anxious to learn, their pa- rents have ambitions to create a better social condition. There is quite an en- tertalnment at the hall this evening. I am sure they would be glad to have you come.” And Maurice went. He could not re- #ist the privilege and pleasure of be- iag in the company of Vinnie. That evening amazed and enlightened him. The homely folk fairly idolized the popular young school teacher. Vinnie sang and recited for them. Then there was a damee. It was as Maurice led Vinzie to a seat after a waltz that she indicated a dark-featured young man who had sat grim and silent ald the evening watching those present, espe- clally Vinnie and Maurice. “I wonder who that young man is?” she spoke. “He passed me on the street with an e “I will try to find out for you,” vol unteered. Maurice, snd made some im- | quirfes. The young man Rad asap- peared by the time he had returned to Vicaie. It was with somewhat start- ling information. The young man, Maurice ascertained, | was the son of Black Burt, a notorious | outlaw who had been driven out of Si- | erra with a price on his head. He was | reported dead. This was the first ap- pearance of the young man in Sierra . for over a year. The next day Vinnie Dale was miss- ing. She had gone out in the morning for a walk. She did not return. Eve- ning came and still no trace of her. Maurice became anxious. He started a search. Finally from what some children told him he was satisfied that Vinnie had been kidnaped by three men. One of them from the descrip- tion he was satisfied was young Burt. For nearly a week Maurice wandered over hill and dale in & vain search for the haunt of the Burts. Wan, disheart- ened, one afternoon he was resting in the midst of a dreary waste when & horseman came galloping towards him. He dismounted. It was young Burt. Instantly Maurice’s hand shot to- wards the revolver at his belt. The abductor of Vinnie, his rival, he fan- cled, stood before him. Maurice was halt mad with anxiety. “Hands up!” he ordered furiously. “That's all right,” observed Burt, obeying, but smiling the while. “Won't you first let me deliver a letter I have for you?” “For me—{from whom?” “Miss Dale,” was the reply. “Whom you kidnaped!” burst out Maurice, flercely. “Perhaps. She don't regret it. Read the letter and see,” and he lowered a l hand and took an envelope from his breast. . Maurice perused it. The signature was Vinnie Dale. It simply asked him to come with the bearer of the mis- sive. “I will go with you,” said Maurice, but distrustfully. “If you are leading me into a trap I will shoot.” “You won't shoot—you'll be glad,” declared Burt, still smiling. 1t was dusk when he led Maurice up to a rambling lighted structure in the idst of a dense wood. The aston- shed Maurice saw within a room Vine nie Dale, graceful, sprightly and Lappy faced as ever, teaching a girl compan- fon a dancing step. “You see, we Burts are pretty closely watched and father is still alive and in hiding,” explained young Burt. “He 18 going to Alaska and Sis and I to some high-toned relatives in the East. I stole your girl to teach 8is how to play the lady—see? As soon as Miss Dale found that out she was willing to stay. BShe sent that note to you, but you had left Sterra.” Precious note—it proved that Vinnie had a certain interest in him, how deep, Maurice soon knew. And when the explanations had been made the happy lovers knew that for teaching Sis to be a lady enough to clear the Triumph mine of all debt was to be the reward. (Copyright, 1914, by W. G.

Besides conducting a tango place at the Cumberland, Hers also conducts Mrs. Herz to an even Balf dozen other danefng places each week. But he doesn’t dance a step.
