Brstm Globe The Waeping Willow telegraph office faced the lavel prairie. Up anda down before it, like shining ribbons, lay the railrond tracks, converging myster- iously until distance blended them into one. Back of it flared the wide main street, with stores and cottages indis- criminately mingled, which muarks the disconsolute prairie town. Beyond, in- closed by a white picket fence, strag- gled the desolate graveyurd. The only thing in plenty ture supplied was room. abundance of space. It wall to crose the street. Neighbors’ houses stood aloof. Nobody was crowded even in the graveyard. The telegraph operator, satisfied with lundseape, leaned back, stretched him- sell prodigiously, yawned audibly, and collupsed in his chair, which creaked in vex~d rvemonstrance. He tossed a remurk over his shoulder, *‘So this is what you are yearnin’ for, Dave?” Dave took his cane, and limping to the door viewed the inertness in silence. Then he roused himself and said cheer- fully: YA telegraph operator is all I'm good fur sinco I got hurt,” “Seems like the com’ny might have donemore for you when you got smashed up in their own accident. ’T'wouldn’t have hurt ’em none to keep you as a conductor,” grumbled his friend, Suddenly the afternoon stillness was broken by excited voices and the sharp barking and yapping of dogs. Joo ught his feet to the floor in a hurry. “I can’t leave the machine, Dave. Go and see what the rumpus is about. I bet Brier Rose is up to somethin’. It takes that there girl to stir up the boys. No, Foxy,” he said to his terrier, who was whirling around in an ecstasy of an- ticipation, ‘‘you stay here. If Brier Rse is ut vhe bottom of 1t, a little feller like you might get lost in the shufle,” Dave obediently limped up the streat, where, in the midst of a crowd ot rough men, 5tood a girl holding some little ani- mul high above her bheud, while the dogs leaped and snapped around her. The girl with the scarlet clheeks begged and scolded and threatened them all, to their infinite amusement. “Call off your dawg, Jim,” she said fiercely to the owner of the largest, whose leavs sometimes almost reached the quivering little object in her hand. “Throw down the beust an’ I will,” he answered. “If that there dawg gives another which na- There was un was quite o Jump, ['ll pizen him before sunup,” she said slowly ., Jim made a lunge for the dog aud sat on him to keep him down, while the crowd hooted in derision of nis obedi- enc “What's all this?” cried Dave, com- THE OMAHA ing up nnd pushing his way through their midst. “Brier Rose is being held up!” cried a voice. The crowd yelled with delight. The girl’s whoie face became white with rage ns sho singled out the speaker. “You'll pay for that, Ben Miles, as yon've paid before,” she said. “Call off those brute cried Dave, rapping the nearest dog with his cane. “[For shame, to tense a woman!” “Look n hyer, stranger,” said a young giant, menacingly. He towered above Dave, who stood his ground. “I'm lame, and no account 1n a fight," said Dave; “‘but half a man ain’t goin’ to see n woman tormented.” “Who in thunder—" began his threat- enery but Ben Miles laid a hand on his arm. Hold o, Jim,” he said; “'that there’s Dave Comstock, conductor of the sinnshed up No. 7.” “Not the feller that got hirt savin’ the baby?” The same.” Sho, stranger!” Jim, “You're welcome to interfere., Give us yer hand. We would’t hurt her fur nothin’. Bless my stars! Brier Rose can take care of hersell better’n most men.” The dogs were all held now, and the girl put her tired arm down, She looked curiously at the man. whose bravo story she knew by hcart, as she heard him defend her. To be sure, she had been defended be- fore; there was hardly a man who would not have risked his iife to s ve hers, but they tensed her unmercifully when they got” the chance. Dave’s interference was on anew line. She did not quite understand it, but it appealed to her at once, When Dave went back to the station to teli Joe, tho latter roared with de- light. ““Just like her! Exzactly like her!” he cried, slapping his leg so inhumaaly that his lame friend winced for him. *Who is Brier Rose?” he repeated, in answer to Dave’s question. **You dou’t know much if youdon’t know old Bryan’s duughter. She's the best kuown girl from Horseshoe Gap to Powder Crik. Old Bryan’s been engineer on the road ever since the track was laid. All eyes she was then, as sho is now. What wasn’t eyes was temper. Same now, sav- in’ that now she bosses the boys in addi- tion to old Bryan. She can run an en- gine with the best of ’em. Bryan's taught her all the tricks, and he thinks the sun rises nnd sets for just her. “‘Strange she would defend a ;:n‘)hsr. when she’s 0o hard on the boys,” ob- served Dave, : That’s just it. That’s Brier Rose! She’s got more tame pets; she’s friend- lier with every beast in Weepin® Wiiler than with any of the boys. She ain’t even got a head fur anybody but old Bryan; you notice I make no mention of heart concernin’ Brier Rose; I don’t keer to talk of what she ain’t got—and just now she’s specially bewitched about him. fter keepin’ straight for forty years he's taken to drink. The girl knows he'll lose his job if the company gets wind of it, and she watches him like a hawk.” “*What’s Bryan’s run?” “Horseshoe to Powder Crik. She knows every inch of track and siding. And [ wish you could see her handle the critter. She knows all Bryan does, and she’sa heap sight quicker cale’lutin’ than the old man, Tt’s wuth while to see her oil and clean the machine, She oes over it spry as a Kitten,” “She’s handsome,” said Dave, simply. “Humph! Handsome is as handsome does,” observed Joe, grumpily. “She is cold as ice and as hard as a rock. It’s my belief that she ain’t got no heart swme as other wimmin. And sassy? Lor’l” 1I. In spite of what he had heard, or per- haps because of what he had heard, all things, even the melancholy town it- self, grow rose-colored to Dave’s sunny eyes. With his unfailing cheerfulness he waited hopefully for news of his ap- pointment at Red Valley. and hovered, as if fuscinated, around engine 44. Neitoer the toys nor old Bryan were slow to notice this, the latter having ac- cepted such attentions periodically from all the young men. It was so inevitable a proceeding that up to the time of Mid- dleton’s dance they paid no attention to it. But that night something extraordi- nary occurred. The next day. as Brier Rose rode down the street on her little pony, the boys gathered around her eagerly. not- withstanding the fact that she had a stout little whip in her hand. They had something new and strange to tease her about, *‘Brier Rose,” called Jim, as she drew rein, ‘‘you don’t care nothin’ about dancin’, do you?” “You'd rather set all the evenin’, wouldn’t you, now?” “D’you'like the nume o’ Dave, or do you reckon you'd rather have Com- stock?” Rose looked from one to the other as the bottled-up taunts fell rapidly upon her ears, her checks and lips growing scarlet. For once her ready tongue failed her. Small need to ask them what they meant, Too well she knew. But was her subjugation appurent in such a trifle? And sosoon? And Dave as yet had said nothing. Emboldened by her silence they went furthor, **What does he say about it?” The shamed crimson leaped to her very temples und receded, leaving her face pitifully white. Her wounded pride now punted for but one thing—a way out. ~ Probubly he knew 1t, tov. She saw him coming down the street. **Do you love him? Say, Brier Rose, do you love Duve?’ cried the one farthest from her whip. Her courage came back at Dave's ap- proach, and the spell of her unwonted silence was broken. **Do I love him?” she cried, looking him fairly in the face, *‘1 come nearer to hatin’ him!” She turned her horse sharply and the blows the boys had expected fell on her fiery little pony. He craned his neck and went up the streot on a dead run, but fast as Rose flaw the grieved look in Dave Comstock’s blue eyes kopt pace with her. That night Joe fidgeted around, un- able to decide whether or not he ehould speak to Duve about the occurrence of the afternoon. Dave's genial smile and cheery hopefulness were gone. He sat with his face buried in his folded arms. Joe coughed noisily und said nothing, Dave looked down ut his poor maimed foot. *'Joe, do you know that little baby I saved from the wreck had brown eyes like Brier Rose? I remember the baby smiled when I beld it out to the men, You know my foot was cuught and I couldn’t move. 1've never seen Brier Rose smile at me that way, If I had saved her perhaps she would. Do you think so, Joe?" At home Roso was thinking of the story of Dave’s bravery in tne wrecked train, of the lives he had saved, of his defense of her, And mdu( in return she had mocked him. Afu, f the look he gave her spoke truly, she had cut him tothe heart. Tears—tears in the eyes of Brier Rose! L The position of telegraph operator at Red Valley wus given to Dave Comstock. ‘I'he afternoon freight; heavily loaded, had just pulled clumsily out of Weeping nid the mollified DAILY Willow station, witf Dave on the rear platform of the Wdy'ear, The 44, having eome down on the rear of the freight as second engine, now stood on the sididj,, waiting 1o go back to Horseshoe for ‘the midnight express. Old Bryan was {f in & crowd of men in fromt of the postoffice. Brier Rose watched him anxitgély. As long as he kept away from the Owl she felt . He knew she was watching him. He algo knew that she would not hesitate to come ufter him if the Owl proved too otrong an attraction,, Thercfore he kept awny. She trod fearlessly along the side of the boiler, rubbing the handrail with a olack oil-sodden cloth. She touched the engine as il she loved it. Every part of it shone like the sun. Every valve worked with precision. livery screw was socure, Joe laughed to sce her fling a shovelful of coal in the furnace like a born fireman, His own machine called his attention from the 44, Then Rose heard him ccy out und, springing down,she rushed nto the stadon. runaway engine coming this way he snid hoarsely. “‘Spitework of a d charged engineer, No one on her— going twenty-five miles an hour—a sin- gle track—Duve’s train only going fif- teen—the 44 and that ore car on the only siding between here and Red Val- ley. My God!” Where is'it?" cried Brier Rose. it broke aw 1y from Horseshoo Gap. Messago is from Praivie City. It's al- ready ~ passed Prairie City, headed straight for here. It’s bound to catch Dave before his train gets to Red Valley.” RRose turned whito to her very lips. She covered her face with her brown hands. Only for a mowent, though. Then she flung back her head and looked Joe full in the face. “Ican save him!” she cried. Sho sprang for her engine and climbed into the cab, “Rose! Rose!” roared Joo in disma; Rose turned her white face toward him implovingly. “Be at the switch, Joe, and listen for my signals as you value Dave’s lifel” she cried. Then she pulled the throttle-valve out to its full extent. The engine shivered, all over, and at fifty-two miles an hour the 44, driven by Brier Rose, leaped down the track to meet the runaway. There was not a moment to lose. A certain number ot miles, lessening every moment, tny between the lumbering freight with Dave on board, and the cruel, senseless, runaway engine. Be- tween them wus Brier Rose, with just u chance of safety. She knew thut a loosened rail or any obstruction would hurl her to her doom, and still not avert disuster from Dave. The whistle of the 44 shrilled out an unearthly screech continually, to warn even the birds from fluttering too near the messenger of life. The engine rocked from side toside at the dizzy rate of speed. For the first time the odor of hot air mude Rose feel nint. She hung half out of the cab window panting for breath, and her hands clinging crazily to the window for support. Suddenly she saw smoke in the dis tance. Larger and larger grew the black speck on the track. Faster and faster flew the 44 to meet 1t. Nearer and nearer came the runaway. When she could plainly see the shape of the approaching engine she closed the throttle with a rush that made the 44 tremble. She reversed her engine and at little less than twenty-five miles an hour began running away from the run- away. Slowly, almost = imperceptibly, it galned on her brave engine. A horrible fear took possession of her that it was coming too slowly, and that they both would reach Dave’s train before she stopped the runaway. She changed the speed and let the engine gain on her faster. “I can signal for the siding if T fail,” thought Brier Rose. ‘‘Joe will obey my signal.” But she shuddered. In sight of Weeping Willow at last. The 44 whistled frantically. Rose sig- naled for a clear track, and only a train length apart the 41 and the run- away flew past the little station plat- form, crowded with every man, woman and child in town, Joe understood her plan now. He bounded into the station, frenzied with excitement, telegraphed to Red Valley what Brier Rose was doing; then, from sheer nervousness, he squeezed Foxy until he yelped wildly. Out of sight of Weeping Willow and Dave’s train in the distance. Nearer and nearer came the runaway. The 44 snorted 1n defiunce of being caught. Rose braced herself for the shock. Crash! camo the coweatcher of the run- away into the unprotected rear of the gallant 44. Rose had loosened her hold, and the concussion flung her to the floor, with her soft cheek agaiust the cab seat. Faint with ber fall she gathered her- self together and shut off the steam. Then, with the nose of the runaway viciously pushing the 44, Brier Rose crept like a cat over the tender, down over the trembling engine, and on her hands and knees she crawled over to the runaway, up along the boiler side into the cab, and crashed the throttle shut when the 44 was within u car’s length of Dave’s train, V. When she came to herself she was in the Red Valley station. Dave was bend- ing over her and calling her name with trembling lips. Sho opened her eyes and smiled into his face. Oh, Brier Rose, how could you do it?” he whispered, with a shudder. “I did it for you, David—for you.” Pears’ __Soap Pretty boxes and odors are used to sell such soaps as no one would touch if he saw them un- disguised.
