Tie Halifax Gin s Mistake ill ItlA A Story of the 'WRITTEN FOR THE A LI FAX, IN THE kA olden days, away hack in V the eii;liti'enlli century, soon nl'ler the ltevoliltion, was a .jtjf- piston ol' ctiiisitlerublu inipor- lanei! unci was nnle'l for I In.1 id lu ntity mul eulltire ol' ils w.iiiitii, (us it is today) and ihe cli'nncv ol ils I'lilorluininenls.

At the time litis story opens many people of importance, visited the quaint little town, nestled so romantically atnonjr hills, and it occasionally happened that youni; splits of royalty visited ils hospitable homes. At such limes plain Mr. Brown, Mr. Jones, or a "home boy," iu the eyes of the Halifax (.'iris, were things to he snubbed ami pushed aHili', to be taken tip a;;ain only alter ihe departure of royally. There lived in Halifax, at this time, a little e:irl, who afterwards became wide ly celebrated for her beauty, but who at (hi! time of my writing had just escaped from the school room, and stood poised upon the threshold of the fashionable world, reminding you of a beautiful but terfly just escaping I'lom ils chrysalis, and preparing to alight into a lovely gar den of roses. For the purpose of this story it is only necessary that she be called Charity, for she was such a sunny, ell-like creature that it was said she represented the llnee Christian graces, faith, hope and charity, and the greatest of all being charily, she was so chrisleued. Not eighteen years o'd yet, but already many of the youii; men's heads had been completely turned and twisted, and not a lew would have jumped, joyfully, into the swift current of the Uoatiokc at her bidding One evening, while seated upon the comfortable lounge, iu her Mom, indulg ing id a uay dream, alter making an elaborate toilet for the dance to take place at the hotel that niuht, her f.iir head, with its crown of golden hair, rest tn in her hand, u younger sister came softly into the room and stood over her, "Charity," she said, "just guess will be at the dance to night." who "I'm not good at guessin dear. 'wko is ii?" t'Whynono other than His Uoy Highness, young Lord II urn in utl.iu, who you know has been expected fir ever so Umi. He has just arrived and is now up at Colonel J 's." Charily sprang from her seat, as LitqpiUcd hy electric wires. .Whui! Lord Huntingdon really ami truly here, at last. Oh, I wonder what he hwki liket I am just dying to see hnnVV .. At this juncture all the gills of the neighborhood rushed in, almost brratlilao, to tail the wonderful news. A real, liv ing scion of uobility wis in their midst None w.-re piepared, however, to say just how or wh it he looked like, for he had driven up lo Colonel ,1 ' in a close canli l'o (it was before the d,i of rail- mJ and the old Uiloncl Imd taken him iuimcdiately to his room. "1 tell you what, girl," .-ai l the liulc beiaty, " I'll be the first to dance wiih him, sec if I don't." "Oh, dear," chimed in the girls in a chorus, "do you really think he will come to the dance and that he will dauce with you?" "Most assuredly I do," flashed back the young lady, "and wluit'a still better I expect he will claim more than one dance." Iliore was a string of oh's and "I hope hell ask me, and me, and nic," eame float ing back into the room as ihe gills hasti ly harried away to prepare for the great event. People in the good old days were much more sensiblo than they are now, if joi will pardon me for Baying it, and lnatea(J of the girls vicing with each other as to who oould be the last to ar rive 4 the ball room, each girl, tried with .: till, ' 11 a mm 18th Century. ROANOKE NEWS ) her might to be the first. So, instead of beginning at ten and eleven then, the liddlers were on hand proruntly at 8 'clock and the good, old fashioned hands II round, ladies lo the right, swing cor tiers all, etc , were indulged in and every one had a lovely time. On this iiartieii ar occasion the ball room was brilliantly illuminated, and all the beauty, chivalry and L-allanti'v of Halifax and the sur rounding country were present, making o scene almost indescribable in tnagnilieeuce nd splcndot. Mammas, with cligibles, were out in full force, fir a great prize wus to be played for and the Drowns, Smiths, and ones' were to be snubbed unmercifully. Pretty girls reserved about half the anccs on their cards which were tu be iven without reserve to Lard Huntiug on, when he should arrive. Charity was among tho moi-t brilliant nd happiest present, but as the night woro on and Lotd Huntingdon did not put iu his appearance, she resigned her- oif'to a Mr. Potts, a good naturcd young ow, who followed her around like a shad.iw. She finally became disgusted, and allowed Mr. Potts to write his name ou her programme for five dances. A trip for refreshments had been taken without so much as a glimpse of royalty, and Charity confided her sorrows to Mr. otts. "I don't think it would have hurt urn lo come over for a while and mixed with the people, if he is of royal blood." Charily, when she spoke, had a way of cresting ner lieau, and looking at you just like a bird about to take wing, and it lent a certain charm aud pitpiancy to her remarks that never failed to carry couvic lion to the heart of her listener. Sin had started au agreeable little flirtation with this pleasaut mannered youog mail, whose honest and open admiration of her beauty was not altogether distasteful to er. But as the hours sped by and the young sprig of royally made never a sign of life, the little beauty grew very fractious and bcuan to lose interest in the ball When Mr. Potts came to claim his fifth dance she was in no very amiable, mood and did not hesitate to call lis Royal llighuess all sorts of bad name:'. "Lotd Huntingdon is a snub He thinks himself above the Halifax gir's aud you need not tell me anything about him." "Oh, I wouldn't say that. I guess he's decent sort of chnp, you know, fait is I'm in a position to know that 1 e means well," said her escort, lazily, Hut still the wayward beauty would have her way a d insisted on it that Lord Huntingdon was a stuck up En glishman, and that she would refuse to speak to him, even if ho did come in at that late hour. Mr. Potts appeared to be anxious to direct her thoughts into pleasanter chan nels, so he proposad that they should sit for a little while in a quiet nook in the room adjoining the one occupied by the dancers, Mr. Potts told her pleasant little stories of adventure, aud but lor her disappoint ment the pretty Halifax girl would have been charmed with her companion. He told her of famous beauties ind of his craze for pictures, and then wouud up by saying he had a very great favor to ask of her. "Would Miss Charity give him her photograph to be placed in his collection?'' Charity was aghast at his audacity Most assuredly she would not, and, rising proudly from her seat, she stood erect before him, her littlo head crested, while ono small jeweled baud rested lightly on the back of th Chair:' - ; "My photo I to put iu your room Well, really, I like your self-conceit, must say.1'' "Excuse my seeming presumption, Miss Chaiity," Mr. Potts said hastily, "I really did n it want it at all, that is," he said quick ly, "for myself. I have a passion fi oollecting pictures of pretty girls for my mother, who is very fond of them, and thought, ah, perhaps I might be so for tunate as to secure one of yours for her collection " But Miss Charity did not approve of young gentlemen who only wanted pic tures for their dear mothers. "Well, your mother will get no picture of mine, I oan assure you," she replied with considerable more warmth than the oceo-ion required. "And what is more, Mr. Polls, I must say that I haven't a very good opinion of your taste in asking or it for your mother." All her life this little elf had been in the habit of saying just what came upper most in her mind and while appearing very much offended, she was secretly pleased that this handsome Btranger should ask for her picture. "Now, if Lord Huntingdon had only come to the dance and asked for my picture," she thought, "I Wonder if 1 Would have Ireated him in the same rude inannci?" Then, after n moment, the little beauty iiile repents her hasty words and says with (hat bird-like charm, pecuiiutly herl own, "Pray forgive me, Mr. Potts, 1 am a Utile irritable tonight and spoke rather rudely, but it is owiug partly lo the fact that that horrid Lord Huntingdon has acted so shabbily. hate him, and never, never shall he kuow that he was missed at all." Poor Mr. Potts stutters in reply and they go back into the ball room. About this time Colonel J. appeared with a pleased smile upon his counte nance, for Charity was one of his prime favorites, and Mr. Potts beat a hasty re treat. "Ah, my dear," he said blandly. "I suppose for the rest of tho night you will be tuo proud to look at any of our home boys ? Vou are to be congratula ted really, and that young fellow looked all cotif'used, too, as he left so hastily as I came up, eh, Charity, you sly little puss." "lleully, Col. J., I don't quite under stand you, why should I be ho proud of a few sets with Mr. Potts?" ' Potts! Potts!" exclaimed the Coh nel. "Who's talking about Potts. Iam speaking of Huntingdon, who was with you just a moment ago." Had a bomb exploded at her feet she could not have been more agitated. "Lord Huntingdon! Oh, Colonel J I have made the mistake of my life," and she grew dizzy and would have fallen to the floor if Colonel J., had not reached out his strong arm and supported her. thartty glanced nervously around lo see if she could see Lord Huntingdon, alias Potts, but he had left the hall room "i he horrid, mean thing Why did he come here and have himself introduced as Mr, Potts," shesaid,as she prepared lo leave the festive scene. "Yes, 1 am glad I refused him my picture," she soliloquized "but it was the mistake of my life, all the same, Aud to think, I minht have been .ady Huntingdon !"
