BROWN, t Copyright, 1910, by American Presi Asso ciation. Three students were walking on the ramparts of Copenhagen. Two of tbem were , wealthy noblemen. The third was a young man of promise, but with no fortune, a necessary adjunct In 'old countries for assisting one to a career. The commoner was telling bis friends of his desire to make something of himself and his Inability to do so with no means at bis command. "I must go abroad," he said, "see other countries, mingle with other peo ple. Here we are all frozen up like a glacier and move just about as fast." "And ' what will - yon be If yon go away?" asked one of bis companions. "I don't know. I shall at least have an opportunity for development." The two noblemen were more- Inter ested in a lady sitting at a window on the other side of the street bordering the ramparts doing .some kind of em broidery than in the aspirations of their companion. If they desired a ca reer there were plenty of avenues open to them by virtue of their rank, but their desire was rather to partake of he sweets ot life attainable by means of their fortunes, it was not remark able that their eyes should be on the lady at the window, for she was young and comely. She had withal an Interesting face, bespeaking a kindly nature, and modesty was stamped on every feature. "Poul," said one of his friends, "do rou see that ' Madonna face over there?" "Yes." - . "Well, if you will get a kiss from those red lips we will defray the ex penses of this foreign tour you are so anxious to make. "Do you mean that?" asked PouL Both his frjends agreed that If he could get the kiss willingly, not by force or trickery they would furnish the required means. Poul looked long and earnestly at the lovely falce, then suddenly started for the bouse in which tbe girl sat The window was on tbe ground floor, and the two friends saw him go and stand before It, hat in hand. The girl raised the sash, and tbe young men saw that Poul was telling ber of their offer with its provision, for she looked up at tbem while be spoke. Then she drew him toward the window and gave bint kiss. : " Tfie" noblemen ?kept their word, and the commoner we nt abroad. It was some yea rs after this Incident that a distinguished army officer was recalled by the klngfrom a distant station to Stockholm to receive the ap pointment of adjutant general, which meant chief of staff, or. In other words, commander la chief of the army. General Lo venom was the recipient of a great deal of attention. He was unmarried, and many a young girl of Copenhagen "Bet her cap for him, for he was a bachelor and in his prime, belne not yet forty years old. Even daughters of noblemen were "thrown at his head," but he would have none of them. One day while riding on horseback, with a couple of orderlies behind him, he passed a lady In a car riage who especially attracted his fa vorable attention. She was at an age Jusif before women usually pass from youth to middle age. General , Lovenorn returned to nis quarters to dream of the tody who had thus impressed him. Courted though he was. a trusted servant of the King, admired for his ability and courage, yet there was a void In his heart that needs to be filled in the heart of every man and every woman. For the first time In his life he had seen one whom he thought capable of filling that void.; The next day . he rode over tne ground he hod traversed before and at the same hour, hoping that ne migui again meet her. But he was disap pointed. He would have sougnt ner out, but there was no distinguishing mart by which he could describe net. In vain he looked for her In the gaj throngs of young people In the parks, nt the theaters, at balls, siontns passed, flaring which be treasured a vision he had seen but once. Instead of diminishing, bis monomania, as he called It, Increased. Beautiful women, "I SHALL NFVBB POROET THAT YOUNO AMD ENTHUSIASTIC t AOB." not mowing of bis predisposition, con tinued to try to charm him, but be lis tened to what they said without hear lng and to their efforts gave no re sponse. Finally at a social meeting of a sci entific association while strolling with a lady qa his arm he came face to faca with the .subject of bis dreams. He would have left bis companion to fol low the unknown bad that been ad missible, but since it was not be was obliged to content himself by asking who she was. - He learned that her name was Ingeborg Vlnding; that she was not known In society, ber family not being noble; that she bad a .fine mind, but, owing to a retiring dis position, did not assume that promi nence to which her endowments enti tled her. General Lovenorn as soon as be was free from attendance upon the lady who gave him this Information lost no time In securing an Introduction to Ingeborg Vlnding. He passed tbe rest of the evening with her and received permission to call upon her. There was curiosity on tbe part of several women who bad each set her cap for General Lovenorn when be was conspicuous for his absence from the next notable social function. When two or three of such affairs had passed without his being present curiosity had grown into alarm. When It finally began to be whispered thnt tbe gen eral was devoting himself to a lady to whom royalty bad not given a ticket to the court circle alarm gave way to consternation. When he was seen at the opera with the lady who had un consciously occasioned this disquietude necks were craned and lorgnettes were leveled at the couple from the circle where sat the aristocracy of Copenha gen. General Lovenorn asked Ingeborg Vlnding to be his wife. The manner with which she received his declara tion was a puzzle to him. There was not that heartiness In her reply which be had Levied for. He felt toward ber a certainty of bis wn feelings which did not nrtet with a response. lie knew that she was the only woman he bad ever jrlsued to marry and was disappointed that she should have doubts as to ber wish to marry him. I must ask for time," she said, "In which to consider so important a deci sion." Days passed, during which the woo er's fate bung in tbe balance. At last she sent for htm. ' "There is but one thing," she said, "that separates me from you. Tears ago, when I was In tbe first freshness of youth, J met a young man to whom I gave my heart He did not enter into my life.- Our acquaintance was tbe (Continued on last page.) Great Events For Enterprise "Fans" Grande H. 8. and W. C H. 8. Friday and Saturday Big Game 8unday. There are great events la store for the Enterprise fans. Friday and Sat urday of this week the La Grande High School team will meet the Wallowa County High School team, at Enterprise In a series of two games, and the publio Is promised a good entertainment for . the two days. The Wallowa County High School team Is the aggregation that defeated the Lostlne team here last Saturday by a good margin, and the local boys are confident over the outcome of the future games. Perhaps the big game of the week will be that of the Joseph team and the Enterprise city team, Sunday. The Enterprise boysi have Just re ceived the new suits, and the Sun day game will be the Introduction of the team decked out in the new "Urimmlngs." Last Saturday's Game. . The game on Saturday between Va!iowa County High school and Lostlne High school was an extreme ly creditable exhibition of the na tional game. It was won, bv the County high, but their defeat brought no discredit to the Lostlne boys, who, considering their lack of training, p it vp a strong game. . ' While the local boys- played well tad (kserved the'.r victory, the prin cipal part of the credit belongs- to Cramer, who pitched In big league lj!e. Cramer promises to be' the find of the season. He bad! every thing a pitcher needs, Including al most perfect control. In- the first Im ing he retired the side with seven olidied balls. In the second inning he struck out Fleener with four pitched balls and Immediately follow ed it up by striking out Leonard with the same number. In the ninth Inning he retired the side with four pitched balls, " In the nine - Innings neither a .wild pitch nor a base on balls was charged to him. Wilson caught a good game, although the ateadine3s of Cramer made his work easy. Of the other players, Ault at second and Vest In left, starred. Of the Lostlne boja, Cook caught a very creditable . game, considering the extreme wildness of Haun, and Sumpter, at first, was a star. The rune came this way: In the second Inning, after Jackson had struck out, Wilson singled' to right, went to third on a wild pitch and scored ' while . Bauer was being thrown out from Read to Sumpter In the third, Craig singled to left reaching second when Hammack let the ball go through hte legs, to the fence, and directly afterwards went to third on a passed bait. Haun at this Juncture very accommodatingly passed both Casey and Vest and in terspersed his work with a couple ot wild pitches, - on which both Craig and French scored. That was all until the fifth Inning, when two bases on balls ana tnree wua yucuen 3core'd Craig. French and Vest,, wblch ended the scoring for the game Lostlne got Its run in the third. After two were out, Cook singled to Iht and kept on to tnird wnen Baur let the ball get away from hlnl Haun' followed with another into the same territory, on which Cook scored, Haun1 being thrown , out at second, being relayed there by wu son after it had reached home too late to .catch Cook at the Plate.
