THE McCOOK TRIBUNE
HIS
WARD
He Was Very Much Surprised
When He Saw Her
By Ella B Barker
w Copyright by American Press S
elation 1011
Mr Willard Lane bachelor returned
to his house after business sat down
in the library and took up a newspaper
He turned over the sheets three or
four times vainly endeavoring to be
come interested in something and final
ly fell to reading the advertisements
Then he threw down the paper and
leaning back in his chair with a bored
expression mused
This house is comfortable but it
Isnt home I have a mind to give It
up and take bachelor apartments I
can buy anything I want but I cant
buy a helpmeet Id give one half of
all Im worth if I could go back ten
or fifteen years and meet again the
girls I used to associate with Id pro
pose to every one of them successively
till I got one for a wife Theres
Molly B married and four children
Matilda B gone I dont know where
Edith Jenks is still unclaimed but she
was always sour as vinegar and she
hasnt improved with age As for me
Im altogether too old to get a wife
from among young women and Im
sure none but a youthful one could
ever get on with me and she would
have a hard time of it Ill sell this
tomb
A letter for you sir
Mrs Parker the housekeeper hand
ed him a missive that the postman
Hi m
VV viONt
IIE DltEW HEB TO HIM
had just left at the door He opened
and read it
Willard Lane Esq
Dear Sir We have to announce to you
that by the will of the late Hamilton
Bingham which has this day been ad
mitted to probate you are appointed ex
ecutor of his estate and guardian of his
daughter Marie Southworth Bingham
Tour ward has no relatives and it is in
cumbent upon you to provide a home for
her Very respectfully your obedient serv
ants KINGSLEY KINGSLEY
Attorneys
Well well Poor Binghams gone
And left his child to me Why didnt
these musty attorneys say something
about her age Will she need a nurse
or is she old enough to go to school
by herself Let me see I have had
no knowledge of Bingham for a dozen
years I cant figure out how old the
child is But any way it will liven
up this tomb to have any living thing
In it I mustnt sell it Ill need it
for her home By Jove thats what
Ill do Ill make a home for her right
here
Going out to a telegraph office he
sent the following message to the at
torneys Send Marie Bingham here
During the evening Mr Lime received
a reply that his ward would be with
him at 5 oclock the next evening and
it was suggested that he meet her al
tho station Calling for Mrs Parker
he gave her minute instructions as to
the preparations he desired made
Put in order he said the two
rooms adjoining on the west second
story the one for a nurse the other
for a child In the garret is a crib
that lias been there for years Get it
down and Ill order a new mattress
How old is the child sir asked the
housekeeper
How old I dont know Tho stu
pid attorneys didnt say anything about
her age but I figure It out that she
cant be over say ten years old If
she is Ive been getting old mighty fast
I hope shes between six and twelve
Well assume that shes seven not too
old for dolls sets of dishes and all that
At an3 rate Ill provide these when I
go downtown tomorrow Poor little
thing I wish her to feel at home
Shes just lost her father
Ill see that everything is done sir
So Lane the next day sent homo all
that was required including such toys
as would please a child seven years
old There were three dolls and a play
house big enough for the little girl to
get into that is if she wasnt large for
her age By 4 oclock in the afternoon
the two rooms were in prime order and
looked both comfortable and cozy
At 5 oclock Mr Lane was at the
station and watched the people pour
from the train when it came in look
ing for a woman with a little girl but
there was none such at least none that
did not go away at once Lane was
disappointed He had made up his
mind to have his little companion by
him at the table for dinner He was
turning away when a girl about seven
teen accosted him
I beg pardon sir Have you seen an
elderly gentleman who appeared to be
waiting for some one
No I have not
He was to have met me here but
I dont see him
I was to have met a little girl my
self She hasnt come or if she has
Ive missed her
I dont know what Im going to
do
I have a carriage outside and will
be happy to drive you wherever you
wish to go
Thank you ever so much Im to
go to my guardian Mr Willard Lane
No
What
Mr Lane
I thought you said ho is an elderly
gentleman
Why I suppose he is He and my
father
Are you Marie Bingham
Yes
Lane looked at her for a moment as
if dazed then said
Im the elderly gentleman youre
looking for and youre the child Im
looking for Im your guardian Come
right along
Seizing a bag she carried ho led her
out of the station put her into a car
riage andldrove her home The house
keeper received them at the front door
and looked surprised at seeing instead
of a child a tall willowy girl who
might have passed for twenty
Just wait here a few moments
said Lane to his ward I wish to be
sure your room is all right Mrs
Parker well go and see
The two hurried upstairs
We must get this out first bo
said taking hold of one end of the
playhouse
Shed never get in it in the world
remarked Mrs Parker dryly
Run It up into the garret
The crib was next removed after
which the dolls sets of dishes and oth
er toys Then Lane went down and
told Miss Marie Bingham that her
rooms were ready for her
Mrs Parker had been in the Lane
family long enough to have taken care
of Willard Lane when he was a kkl
She was the only woman upon whom
he could rely for advice and as soon
as she came downstairs he said to her
What am I to do Will it be prop
er for me to keep her here
In the first place Mr Willard I
understand she has no other home
Some people will think it right for
you to give her a home here with me
for chaperon while some will talk
But if were going to listen to what
people say of us well be hearing
something disagreeable all the while
If shes happy here I see no reason
why she shouldnt stay
That settles it she remains
Marie Bingham was of an age to
be treated either as a woman or one
Just emerging from childhood espe
cially by her fathers old friend The
tomb as he had called his house
seemed to have thrown off its se
pulchral atmosphere from the day she
came into it For some time after
her arrival she felt deeply the loss of
her father But youth is quick to
throw off sorrows and even during
this period she was cheerful Beyond
this was the presence of a young girl
It seemed that the very atmosphere
had been changed The servants were
better contented and easier to man
age Mrs Parkers heart that had
been supposed to have congealed with
age came out to the motherless girl
and she was happy in having some
one to care for As for Lane it seem
ed to him that he walked lighter
breathed freer indeed that the whole
world had taken on a brighter hue
Three years passed years that Lane
afterward referred to as the happiest
of his life From the first he was in
terested at having the direction of a
young girls education the same as if
she were his own daughter Her In
come was a slender one entirely in
adequate to give her special advan
tages ne supplied the deficiency
keeping her in ignorance of the fact
I must find some young fellows for
her he said to Mrs Parker She
needs to associate with young men of
her own age
Mrs Parker looked up at the celling
and said nothing
So Lane hunted up some of the
younjjer members of his club and took
them to call upon his ward She ap
peared to enjoy their society but it
was not to be expected that she would
fulfill tho purpose for which he had
brought them that Is that she should
marry one of them ner twenty first
birthday was near at hand when by
the terms of her fathers will her in
heritance was to be turned over to her
and though her guardian had trotted
up a number of attractive young men
she had shown none of them any pref
erence
The day she was twenty one Lane
handed in to the chancery court an ac
count of his stewardship His ward
surprised him by asking for a copy of
It He gave It to her and she perused
it carefully
I cant make this out she said to
her guardian What has been the
average income from the estate since
fathers death
About 700
now much have you charged me
for board
There hasnt been any income for
board It has all been needed for
schooling
And how much has been drawn for
schooling
Nothing has been drawn for school
ing It was all needed for board
She looked up from the paper There
was a revelation for him in that look
She put out her hand and rested It on
Ms He drew her to him and kissed
her
The next morning Lane said to Mrs
Parker I have a surprise for you
What is it
Marie is going to turn down all tho
boys to marry the old man
Tut Thats no surprise

To Impeach Judge Orr
Lafe Burnett a lawyer of Lincoln
has filed a petition with the senate
committee on judiciary requesting it
to file articles of impeachment against
Judge Robert C Orr of McCook of th
Fourteenth judicial district The com
mittee has not yet acted on the ap
plication A similar request has been
presented to the house judiciary com
mittee these committees being re
garded as the proper ones to start
proposed impeachment proceedings
Burnett alleges that Judge Orr has
acted improperly in refusing to ex
tend the time for the filing of a trans
cript when the court reporter refused
to prepare a transcript and acted
improperly in deciding a suit relating
to the estate of Mrs L A Wilson
The complaint alleges that he was
obliged to apply to the supreme court
for a mandamus after Orr had re
fused to act to compel the court re
porter to prepare a transcript L A
Wilson formerly sheriff of Gosper
county instituted proceedings for di
vorce and later his wife instituted
proceedings against him to recover
property which had been foreclosed
her husband having bought up a
mortgage upon it At one time Mrs
Wilson was committed to an asylum
Burnett was employed by her to se
cure a release of her property He
was defeated in the county court and
in the district court before Orr In
both cases it is alleged the district
judge improperly refused to extend
the time for the making of a trans
cript after Burnett had paid the court
reporter 50 which he says was too
much for the work After Burnett
had made a showing of the circum
stances and the refusal of the reporter
to do his part Judge Orr is alleged
to have refused to grant a writ of
mandamus against the reporter and
Burnett obtained such a writ from the
supreme court before he could get re

Nebraska to Have Better Dogs
According to the Nebraska Kennel
club this state has an abundance of
pure bred live stock but Nebraska
dogs are not up to standard and the
kennel club has started out to im
prove the quality of our canines
Twelve hundred dollars in cash
twenty five silver cups and other val
uable trophies have been put up to
be awarded as prizes for the best Ne
braska dogs They are to be judged
by Dr George W Clayton of Chicago
and A F Hochwalt of Dayton Ohio
two of the most expert judges in
marking dogs in the United States
This great assemblage of dog blood
is to be brought together in the Om
aha Auditorium March 22 to 25 and
the cats have been invited in order
to make things interesting Only
blooded cats are wanted there being
no prizes for common alley cats
R T Burns of Omhaa is secre
tary of the Kennel club and has pre
pared a regular printed premium list
believing that Nebraska should not
be behind other states in having a
regular bench show where the
dogs can gather for a social bark now
and then and owners can compare
their fine points
