thing of tho kind, but whou she saw
tho sign an overwhuhiilng dwlre to In
iulre luto things uuknowtk hud tiwot
her. Tbo rest of tho party had gone
down to ttio iH'tu'h, and after staying
tu her room at the summer uotot for
an hour with a headache she hnd slip
ped out to buy a fnsclnattug kimono
she had seen In a Japs new store tho
day before. The clairvoyant's sign
had raueht her sys, and for a whole
hour she bad sat in the darkened,
stuffy little room with her nerves all
at strained attention.
She weut back to her room snd,
walking straight to tho dresser, looked
regretfully at the plcturo or a fronts
boyish face surrounded by a little plain
gold frame,
"I never would have thousht it" alio
whispered. "I thought you wore
the truest, noblest thing on earth. And
she said tbo man with black eyes, now
ono of my circle of artjimlntttnces, was
deceitful to the core and that If I did
not separate his path from mlno he
would prove tho blighting sorrow of
my life. Jimmy, dear, It seems Im
possible to believe you could bring sor
row Into any one's life, but It must
have been you sbe mount, for you ore
tbo outy uiau of my scqunlntiuice who
has b-black eyes." And.bolug only nine
teen and believing she had come face
to face with the big sorrow of her life,
she threw herself across the bed and
sobbed lux-nude sbe felt thnt sbo must
Immediately take stops to separate
Jimmy Keut's path from hers-JIminy,
who had lent her bis red boll to play
with the very flrst day sho went to
kindergarten.
James Kent, unconscious of the
heavy cloud of suspicion hovering over
him, came from bis ocean swim and
lay idly on the sand, hoping Minim
would get over her headache and walk
down to the beach. Finally, sunburn
ed and glowing, be went back to the
hotel and found bcr on the veranda,
gazing listlessly at the sea.
"Is It as bad as all that, little girl)
Yon are the most forlorn looking speci
men I ever saw," he said as ho sat on
the porch rail and eyed her commls
eraUngly. Minna, seeing the sympathy in bis
eyes, wished fervently that they were
any other color than black. ,
"What on enrth in;ide you havoblack
eyes, Jimmy? I dislike them she
said petulantly. '
Jimmy opened the offending orbs
very wide In bis surprise. 7 ?-
"By Jove, you are a queer one, Min
na I You told me yesterday down on
the beach that I had the most beauti
ful eyes you cvtr saw. Positively made
me blush to know I was so beautiful.
'Frald to sleep In tbem last night lest
I should spoil 'em. And now-Mlnnn,
you haven't uiet any fellow with gray
eyes, have you?" he asked suspiciously.
"No, I haven't," indignantly, "but
black eyes are treacherous and I nev
er conld trust them."
Whether they were treacherous or
not was left an open qnestlon, but
they certainly proved persuasive, and
finally Jimmy was In possession of the
Whole story.
"Minna Bced, you ought to be asham
ed of yourself! Do I look like a blight
ing sorrow?" mimicking ber forlorn
tone. "I might l mistaken for a prize
fighter," exhibiting bis muscular arm
with pride, "but I'm blamed if I'd
know how to start out In the blighting
sorrow business."
Minna, anxious to believe, still look
ed dubious.
"If your eyes only weren't black!"
sbe sighed.
"Now, look here, ray child. I'd get
a special act of congress to change
them to suit you If I could. You know
I've done everything to please you all
my life. Why will you believe that ut
ter rot? Did sbe tell you anything
tangible that you absolutely know was
truer Jimmy was la training for a
lawyer and wanted to contest all evi
dence In tbe case.
"She told me my name and age," tri
umphantly. "Didn't you have to write It on a
piece of paper first?" suspiciously.
"Y-yes, but she didn't see it hon
estly she didn't I folded it tightly
and put it on the table, and she sat
and toyed with it while sho talked."
"Tho mischief sho didn't see it!"
growled Jimmy. "Anything else?"
"Sbe said I bad an Aunt Mary in the
spirit land that was trying to guide
me," hesitatingly, 1
"See there! You never bad an Aunt
Mary In your life! It's all pluln hum
bug." Jimmy spoke with tbe satlsfac
tlon of one willing to lcavo bis case lu
the bands of an Intelligent Jury.
"Np, I never bad, but mamma bad
and tbe clairvoyant said aunts and
great-aunts were all tbe same in tbe
spirit world."
Jimmy positively groaned with die
gUSt .; ' ,
"She might safely hit on on Aunt
Mary. ' Nearly everybody living has an
aunt or great-aunt or great-great-great
er-aunt Mary. But she had no busi
ness fooling with my eyes."
He sat sulkily silent then grinned
with a thought that made him wonder
if he would not some day bear to the
realm of. Ibe. melapbxs.lcaj.tbe. game

"Young woman, I would not take a
homeless verdict upon ray tree from
any on oculist. Neither will I have
them conderanml by any oue clairvoy
ant I demand a consuhatlon, It !
got tho party together, will you go to
another clairvoyant this evening?" be
demanded.
"I would be so glud to find that tbe
first ono was mistaken," she I4 fer
vently. v
It was a very busy evening for Mr.
Kent. Finally he found a swross suf
flolontly good Matured nnd pllnble to
dlA his rmiulreutont.
"Iteuiember, yon are to entirely free
her mind from the Idea. I'll omt bor
lu third. Yon couldn't fail to know
her anyway. Hho's the prettiest on
In tho bunch, tt's cheap at H, and If
sho gets over hor fear of black eyes,
by Jove, I'll send you another tenner
tomorrow." And Mme. Ardotta, en
thusiastic under the powerful stimulus,
promised t do ber best.
That night when luo moon casj a
long path of light over the waves e
couple sat far down tho beach In a
spot removed from the crowd.
"tithe told me my unmo without my
writing It!" Mluna said In awed tones,
"She Is slmi'ly wonderful!. Paid for
me never to have any eoundence In
fakes thnt made me write questions
sud fold them on a table; that they
had blank paper folded Just like
them, nud when they were toying with
the ones I wrote that they would sub
stitute the lilnuk one nud leave it on
tho table nud take mlno In their band
under the edge of the table ami rend
It. That's exactly what that flrst wo-
ruau must have doue. I've lost faith
lu her euMivly, and, Jimmy, boy. sho
said that the only person I need avoid
and be suspl-tous of was a blond man
with a Vandyke ward."
Young Mr. Kent stroked hi beard
less chin. "Thank heaven I haven't
blond Vandyke." be said ploiisty. "Did
she tell you anything almut-er nter
be asked cautiously.
"'Nat exactly, but she sold that tuy
real atSulty was wu a man I had
known slm-e childhood."
"Now, thnt," suld Mr. Kent with
great gratltlcnttou, "suits me exactly.
I'd rather bo called an aillulty any dny
tlmn a blighting sorrow." lie Joyfully
H)fuusod himself of the girl's bands,
and she bad evidently loot nil fear of
treachery.
Afterward, with ber bead resting
comfortably against his tweed shout
der, she poke musingly. "She said
that the er.-nteiit trial of her life was
that there were so muny fakes that
brought discredit upau her glorious
profession."
"Never you mind, little girl; I'm
not so eimlly Imposed upon, and you'll
have" me with you all through life to
help pick out the real article." sud tbe
treacherous Mr. Kent lifted ber face
until he could look adoringly Into it. 1
The moon, as If by special cou tract,
came from under a cloud at Just tbe
tight moment, and she saw bis expres
sion. .
' "Jimmy, I don't believe any oue else
ever had such wonderfully honest
eyes," she said happily.

A SCARED JEWELER.
Queer Actions of a Stranger la Town
Yesterday-iWho Can He Be?
For a few minutes yesterday Frank
Donnerberg thought himself the victim
of a bold hold up. During a lull in
bustncM, when he was alone in the store
a tall athletic appearing man approached
the counter, behind which Mr. Donner
berg was standing, and asked to be
4hown some diamond rings. With pros
Mots of a good sale dancing before his
eyes the urbane Frank responded with
alacrity. After carefully examining the
glittering array of gems, the stranger
placed one of them on his linger, and
mirveying it with the eye of an expert,
anked the price. When told the price,
1100, he offered to pay with a check on
a Salt Lake bank, but Donnerberg de
manded the coin of the realm. Tbe vlsl
tor remarked that the ring looked pretty
good, and that he could pawn It, He
then drew from his pocket a long bar
relied revolver, which to the now fright
ened jeweler looked as large a one of
the big gun at Fort Stevens. Affec
tlonatoly caressing it he said he would
not pawn the shooting Iron as It was
his friend. For probably two minutes
which seemed hours, lie carressed his
pot and taking the ring from his finger
he laid it on the show case and asked
if there .was a bank ln town and being
answered In the affirmative stated that
he would get the money and return. He
did not return and the police have been
unable to find him. t ,
It U stated that an individual sue
ceeded in cashing a Salt Lake check in
town and lost the proceeds In a gam
bling game. The biter was bitten.
