When Galveston suffered from the fomghtful effects of the tidal wave it “wocomplished its reconstruction and the rebuilding of its government ma chinery through a commission. Da ton is making a magnificent fight to overcome the effects of the flood and in leaving it to a commission the city not only hopes to make a better D: commission governnient with five mem- bers of the commission who shall ap- point a trained husiness expert to manage the city affa; This will give it a management similar to a big cor poration with directors and pre dent for the purpose of getting down to business. 7 Such a plan is idwil, an elaboration of the commission form which Gal- veston inaugurated, having for its nd purpose the elimination of politics & the proper conduct of city busin Where cities are recovering from d aster such forms ha operated we because they were administered with but one object in view, but there rests upon every, community which adopts such a form the obligation of making a proper choice of men. Therein lies the secret of good government under any form. If there are men at its head which put a business a tion ahead of politics it is x operate to the benefit of the munici- pality. It is the men as much as the system which will be on trial at Day- ton. FIGHTING 'FHE HUNGER STRIKE.

How careless that would be,” replied the man, in a tone of gentle irony. He paused in his efforts to get.him- ! self and a pair of saddle bags over the rude fence, and turned calmly in_ the direction of the voice. A black-haired, black-eyed girl of about 20 stood at' edge of the clearing, not two rods .

Do these belong to you?” Of course they do: and you are the robber who stole them from our stahle last night; and there Is my silver monogram on them: and what have you | done with my horse And oh, you) robber and murderer, T ought to shoot you anyway. But if you keep your hands up and walk ahead of me. I will take you back te Clinton and give vou up. I don't know but they will hang yeu as soon as you get there.

Mr. I r: So much is nowadays about Walder H. man that President Wilson with unruffled calm, to the panting girl, whose eves blazed anew at this address, “I can see that there is some reason back of your mistake. But you are making a complete blunder. 1'am no robber. And these saddle-bags I found—" _ “No doubt!” said the girl with rag- ing sercasm, “found them growing on ‘a_huckleberry bush probably. And you didn’t shoot at the cashier of the Clin- ton bank; and you didn't steal my horse and saddle last night to escape with- and there aren’t a hundred men with guns looking for you this minute. Now., 1 tell you what, I mean business! 1l you surrender, or shall I shoot?” “Well, on reflection, I think I” sur- render.” “Put up your hands, then. I shall make you walk ahead of me and carry those bags. “How can I carry them with my hands above my head?’ “Well, you know what I mean. You must—oh, aren’t you a horrid villain! You smile as if it was all a joke. Take up those bags at once and go ahead; and remember, my rifie will be point- ed at you all the time. And I shall be close behind you.’ She started toward him. But she had not fully counted on the difficulty of keeping a steady aim and at the same time -walking over the very rough ground. Her foot caught in a root, and she fell flat, the rifle going | leaps the | off as it struck. In three man was at her side, one hand grasp- ing her weapon and one held out to | assist her. She sprang to her feet, and her brave, bewitching little face went deathly white. “Now, fortunately, you will be com- pelled to listen to me.” said the man, in the same quiet, commanding tone that he had used throughout. “See, my young friend, T have your rifle. You "are powerless now. Pray, keep your self-control and just listen rea- sonably to what I have to say. I wouldn't harm Mou for the world. And I am no more a bank robber than you are.” The girl stood white and motionless, her lips trying not to tremble. “I am a lumber surveyor, a stranger in this part of Michigan. 1 walked over from Port Coleman this morning. More than an hour ago, down the road, I met a riderless horse. a white horse, with one dark stocking. 1 tried to atch him, but he was shy. These bags 1 found while I was prospecting through the woods; they lay near the body of a man in that clump of bushes over there. You can go over and look at the body, if you don't believe me. first meeting, and what a brave, pi- | quant little figure it was that ordered : me to put up my hands.’ Let's leave that to rest in the past.” The gir’s flush was partly concealed by the gathering twilight. “At any rate, my horse and the bank's money both came back, and nobody was hurt but the poor robber. You must have thought me a bloodthirsty child.” “Not so horribly _bloodthirsty. I noticed how you trembled; and I no- ticed later how you shrank from the spot of blood on the saddlebag. Not very bloodthirsty, but just plucky— and bewitching! As for the child part of it, why, I am only six weeks older than you." Do you know, dear child, dear girl, dear woman, my thoughts have been very full of you the past few weeks. I did not know then that it was fate that called on me to sur- render: but it was not long after that it began to dawn on me; and I know it now. Dearest, come to me for life.” His arm was around her now; and without a single word the girl nestled | close up to him in the eventide. Then his hand found hers, and her head rested on his shoulder. “Vivien, my wildwood sweetheart, with the dear romantic name and the true heart, life opens up a new vista | of happiness for us both.” His 1lips met hers: he felt the soft pressure sweetly returning his ardor. “Darling,” he whispered at last, “on | that blessed day you did not, indeed, | capture a bank robber, but vou cap- ! | tured a willing servant_and lover for | | the rest of your life.”—St. Louis Globe Democrat.
