Gllmore, a prominent oitlzsn of Ashland, died Buddenlv at Dead destroyed a bed and ruined quite a wood, in the Dead Indian Beotlon, His Guiding Star. On a lonely road or trail in a lonely oountry, on the baok of a lonely bur row, Bat David Marshall and be plain ly showed that he, with the otber ob jects about him, was juBt as lonely. David was a queer man, twenty-three years of age and for the past two years he had traveled every trail in Arizona and had made some new ones. He had determined to be rloh, he ha j first to be rich before be oould olaim to aspire to the plan he so muoh wished to till. He was good looking, weu eauoaiea, very industrious, out very nervous. He was not satisfied to get rloh in the ordinary way. but desired to search the bowels of the earth and find there hidden the riches be so muoh desired. Thus on bis lonely trip he felt that when he reaoh ed tne plaoe in quest he would find a rloh vein and startle the world. It was not the desire for money or wealth that spurred him on, but baok in the mountains he always had her before him, but give up? Not he un til tne five years had rolled 'round. After that he did not care. He dared not return and had sworn he would not until he oould so a wealtbv man. Nina had many lonely hours also. She knew but she dared not. She would wait and hooe. She would stroll down town, go in to see old ''unortie" uarnett's store, admire the beauty of his Toledo ranees. Doint out the vessels she would needy. ooonting this and that,.. and had long since come to the oonoluBion that one did not have to be very rich to furnish a Bmall nouse with tine goods if every one sold like "Sbortie."

Oontinued next week. Bearing- Another's Burden. That It Is not Impossible to ring a new change on woman's aversion to telling her correct age has been proved by the rector of a New York church. He does not appear to be more than fifty years old, but declared to an In quiring parishioner that he was seven ty-five and added, "I shall be seventy seven my next birthday." "The other evening," he explained, "my wife and I computed that our combined ages foot up to a hundred years. Now, of course, no lady Is ever over twenty-five years old, so to keen peace In the family I suppose I must say I'm sevonty-ave." "But why will you be seventy-seven your next birthday ?" "Because my wife's birthday and mine happen to fall on the same date, and" with a sigh of resignation "of course I shall have to shoulder both of them." Presidential Coincidence.
