It was a few months after tho open
ing tif the Oklahoma strip. A merci
less, scorching south wind swept the
broad prairies of Western Kansas.
Weary pilgrims, discouraged in vain
efforts to hold barren claims
against lawlessness and murder,
were forced to halt their white
winged prairie schooners; for the
hot sand, like molten lava, was too
much alike for the bony, drooping
horses and tho numerous unkempt
children whose brown faces protruded
In the gaps of white canvass, tlreen
things were no where to be seen. All
v<g<tatlon had long since put on a
mourning of dead brown. Fields of
almost black corn whispered helpless
ly In the wind and shook and rustled
far into the night as though conspiring
against the Injustices of n iture.
The little town of Kiowa, which was
something of a railroad center, seemed
the only thing alive for miles around.
As night came on uncertain lights be
gan to flicker from first one and then
another of the dust-sick houses. In
one of these, a small frame house neur
the railroad tracks, lived old Sol liur
tan and his daughter "Llze.”
Although the heat was oppressive,
Eliza had closed the doors ami win
dows to shut out a whirlwind of sand;
from time to time while about her
tusk site glanced at the shaggy figure
near the window.
It was Sol’s accustomed seat; he
would draw his rickety old urm-chalr
to the closed window night after night,
staring out silently at the lights along
the track. Sometimes for variety he
would produce a tattered note-book In
which he made many figures. The
girl had no need to ask questions. She
knew the poor ridiculous little tragedy
of his dreams, his one great, over
"It's the sea, Lize. It’s the sea.”
whelming desire; the same which as a
hoy had caused him to lean idly on the
vlow in the Kansas corn fields and
^ok suit over the undulating prairie,
murmuring to his jaded horses: "It
jeB’ looks like the sea.’’ All through
his life he gad said, "Next year, if
times grows better, I’ll go to the sea.”
Even after he owned a small farm of
his own and hot winds, or drouth, or
grasshoppers continued season after
season to wither and blast his straight
rows of corn, hope still kindled his
ryes and he only said, "If crops is good
next year, I'll see the sea.’’
He had married early, as Is custom
ary in small communities, but his wife
hud died after a year on the desolate
farm, leaving a little daughter. Then,
after continued failures on the plan*,
he had low* u on a mortgage and had
moved int* the town where he could
"pick up sCauethtng doing odd Jobs."
As an unusually strong blast of wind
dashed a fusillade of tine sand agulnst
the w-Indow^iMne, he glauced up and
met his daughters steady, but sym
pathetic glance.

"you must be going over to the trarka
or you'll fnlaa tli» train to Wichita
and you'll not get back tomorrow
night.”
"If I get that Job In Wichita. Llze, I
can save enough money In a year to go
to the coast.”
“Yes," she sighed wearily, "Yes,
Dari, you might.”
She followed him to the door as he
was leaving and Impulsively threw her
arms about his neck. “I'll go up to
the tower with Jim and watch for you
as you pull In tomorrow night,” she
told him. "He standtn' on thu plat
form and I’ll wave to you.
"I'd like to see things myself,” she
sight d. "But perhaps It's Just as well.
I might come back brazen-faced, like
Sally Merritt after she’d been to Chi
cago." She recalled the words of her
school teacher a year before, when she
bad unfolded a simple minded plan to
go to a great city and earn her living.
"Give up that Idea and get married,
rhllil," tiie woman liad said. "It would
be awful for you to learn the world,
to know Its deceits and hardnesses and
its everlasting selfishness. How much
better If you knew only one of Its
humbler sons who will give you his
love and keep the light alive always In
your eyes; one whose soul has not
been frozen by tlio world's atmos
phere,"
Llze had not entirely understood, but
she bud gone home with less of rcst
lessn* i s, to mend the clothes and wash
the dishes, and to pruy to her very
human God.
The intense h< at of the next day
succeeded in coaxing reluctant rain
clouds from the West. Towards even
ing they drew nearer, very black, and
the little town of Kiowa was rejoi
cing. With rain some of the crops
might, yet he saved. A neighbor had
dropped In to nsk Llze If she thought
It was “really goln' to rain.” It was
almost lime for her father's train to
he passing the switch station und the
girl chafed under her caller’s garrul
ousness.
“Mag Brown has gone clear daft, out
on her farm," the woman persisted
conversationally—"thinks the wind la
sayln' things. 1 was out there yestldy
and she was a fright, with her hair
all stuck full of sand, and all the doors
und windows wide open. You could
'a writ your name on the carpet—why,
mercy me, It Is a rainin' now!”
“And I'd better hurry np to Jim's
before It gets any worse, ’ sakl Eliza
curtly, leaving her visitor talking to
herself.
The rain was pouring In torren's now
and blinding Hashes of light were fol
lowed by ominous thunder. Once, al
most blinded and quite deaf with a
wild echoing peal, Eliza half turned
back, murmuring audibly, “It has
struck somewheres." But stumbllug
on, she reached the foot of the
tower as the wind lulled In a sud
den, curious calm. A great quiet
spread over the drenched earth and as
Eliza climbed the stairs she heard the
rumbling of an approaching train.
"Sounds like It whs coming from both
ways,” the girl reflected.
She bounded up the last steps call
ing the switchman gaily by name, and
then she stood very still. The man
had fallen forward across the tele
graph instrument, as though asleep;
one hand was outstretched toward the
nearest lever; his body was quite rigid.
Eliza understood; it was an electrical
shock. But why was his arm out
stretched as though In the art of
throwing the switch? No signal had
been given, for the white light, mean
ing a clear track, gleamed luridly be
low. The sound of a train from the
west answered her. The Oklahoma
Special bearing hundreds of discour
aged “squatters” and speculators from
the Territory, was making straight for
the headlight of a freight. It was too
late to signal now. She must ditch one
of the great fire-spitting monsters and
no time must be lost. Jim had taught
her as much as he himself knew re
garding the use of the switch levers.
A rush of thought swept through the
girl’s brain, luying before her mental
vision a great moral question. The
freight bearing her father and the
small crew stood arrayed against the
teeming passenger with its hundreds
of human lives.
"Oh, God,” she cried out to her hu
man God, ‘ give me strength to ditch
the freight and suve the most lives.”
Then closing lier eyes with a foolish
Instinct that she might thus shut out
the sound of the colliding trains, she
grasped the lever with two strong
brown hands. Btanding thus she was
staring out over the trucks with unsee
ing eyes when the switchman opened
his to consciousness.
Mingled cries of dumb, despairing
brutes and wouutied men were being
borne up from below together with the
•.likening smell of burning wood. The
girl's prayer for strength to sarrllUu
her father had been answered.
“The signal, quick, the signal!” was

Trouble Caused by One Letter.
The omission or insertion of a single
letter has often upset a Jury’s verdict,
and even a whole statute. iKmsesaion
of valuable real estate In Ohio depends
upon a single letter "s.” The Cincin
nati court of common pleas ruled
against Joseph Irwin, the claimant,
and sustained Peter Christmas, who
has been a tenant for seven years past.
The circuit court upset that Judgment
several weeks ago because the Jury’s
report read, "Ou tho Issues." whereas
there was but one Issue involved. Last
week the circuit court reopened the
caso on proof that the form of verdict
was printed and hence the objectiona
ble which had caused all the trou
ble was not made by the Jury.

widely known In the railway world,
and is one of the most popular of pas
senger officials. He began his railroad
career in 1874, and hts good nature,
character and ability have steadily ad
vanced him In the service of the Bt.

In tho passenger department, of which
he now becomes tho head. Mr. MJller
