The abort December afternoon bad
closed In the Utile Colorado village
among tbe mountains,
rhrlatmia Eve.
The boarders at tbe Fountain,
small hotel'lind the only one the 1
afforded, had finished the
meal ? a meal similar to that
was to be found at all small Ylllaffea
In the West
The Inmates of tbe hotel comprised
the landlord (and Jils buxom wife, two y jf
hired girls, i some 10 cr a doaen min- -
-era. and five or six drummers, knigbta
of the grip, who were forced by tha
Inclemency of the weather to tak# _
refuge at the Fountain. 7~"^
Tha snow had been falling steadily
all day, and was still falling, tha
drifts in some places being several ? Jfl
feet-deep. .
? The men w^re seated around tha
table, some playing cards and othara ?
telling stories. "Come, Tom," said
one of the drummers. "It's your turn
for a story; give ub something good ? -
something 'tuo this time."
Torn was a dark. bandBome fellow, :y.v
with black hair and de6p-blue eyes ?
eyes that were full of magnetic pow
er. He pushed back his chair, cross
ed one leg over his knee and, with hfw
hands thrust deep into his Presets, '*t
began :
I once knew a fellow at school, who
for Instance, -I will call Fred? bright,
quicK-witted, generous to a fault, "but"
very mischievous. His pranks some
times brought him to disgrace at
school, but as Fred was a general
favorite he finished the term all right
and was graduated with honors.
Ho entered college with bright *
hopes and high aspirations, and while
there made some brilliant successes;!
but. alas! there was to be a fall. He
became Intimately acquainted with an
other fellow of an entirely different
stamp.
Bob Turner was? a lazy, good-foi^
nothing fellow, who wanted to see the
world at the expense of someone else.
He told-JEteed that If they had a few
hundred dollars tbeir fortunes would ' \
be assured. He accordingly induced
T^jed to forge a cb6ck with his fath
er's name, and thus was committed
his ?first act of crime.
They then went to New York,
. where their money was speedily die- 'Z-,
posed of. and Dob. seeing that Fred . _
was now penniless, basely . deserted
him. ,
Fred at first did not know what to
do. as be was without money or
frlendB. He could not go back to hla
home with such a disgrace attached
to him. so the next thing waa to look
for employment.
After a long and*-tedious pursuit -he
succeeded In obtaining a position In
a small office, for which he was_poor
Hjf' paid. He retualn6d there about six
lucrative position as travelling sale?*
man fur > l.,nrUnff N!oir V?rW ft.-?
One of his trips took him to Ohfo,
to the city of Cleveland, where bo met
a beautiful girl.
'Alice Hastings w?g a pet of society
and Used to being admired. She
?bowed a marked preference fo*~Fred
from the .first and soon became as
much, attached to him as he was to
months and then there was a quiet
wedding at Aftce|s home. Their
honeymoon was spent In making a
tour of the States, but alas, his hap
piness was to be short lived.
While stopping at one of the prin
cipal hotels In Chicago Alice met a
stranger whose polished manners and
handsome face, soon won her affec
tions. She walked with him. danced
with him and drove with him. despite
her husband's objections.
His kind heart forgave her many
things, thinking she would, soon for
jet the stronger.
One night, aftei* a hard day's toll of
Uavel and dust and smoke of trains,,
Fred returned to hi* hotel footsore
and weary. He climbed the stairs to
. hls.rnnm a h**v.y b eart- There .
would not take form tugging ?it bis
heartstrings. He longed, yet dreaded
-lu_ enler his apartment At last ha
reached the door and fitting the key
tfi ;he lock hp. puihad It npan and
stood inside. jj
The room held no other occupantl
He passed on to the next, calling as
he went, "Alice. Alice!" but no re
sponse. He searched them all, but
in vain. Then he thought shtfSaust
?be at the opera, when suddenly Me
eye caught sightrof-a note on th*
mantel, in a conspicuous place.
..He. anachod it, opened It and
read. "Dear Fred? You know \ the
lines. 'I have another life to meet,
without which life my life Is inoom
plete.' I have met that life and must
abide with it Don't look for me, for
by the time you read this note 1 shall
be far away. Doq't grieve for me,
Fred, but try to forgive and forget.
Your lost Allce.'^
"And the husband?" asked * thai
miners and drummers who had been '
listening intently: "Is here," Tom ??
said, as he dropped his head upon
his breast, while a choking sob shook
his frame. ? HELEN QERTRUi'B
