stock market : "There is uo doubt but that
this advance is caused by the f avorablo con
dition of ttio country. It is no mere specula
tive spurt. YOU.BCO wo have been passing
through a peridd of unusual depression In
values. This bos been caused In a great
measure by the overbuilding- railroads.
The so have been built in advance of their
paying powcrbut in time to moot the growth
of population and business. We are promised
this year the largest crops over raised in this
country. When these nro gathered and sold ,
it means wealth to the farmers , and the
transportation of them to market means
prosperity to' tuo railroads. And
when these < two industries uro
prosperous , all-'nther Industries are bene
fited. Then , agnln , the wiser management
of railroad interests recently beguu has Its
effects. The inter-state commerce law ,
which was so little understood at first , ren
ders it possible to adjust differences and dis
putes la a lawful , sensible und businoss-llko
manner , and removes one of the drawbacks
to prosperity. Addcd _ to this , our financial
situation is sucb as'to give confidence. Wo
have a laruor basis for security than over
before. . We forgot that tbo treasury Is

Some might say this meant silver inflation.

Sioux Crrr In. , Sept. 4. [ Special to ' ' JIB

for ttio < s6-called "Pi lflu Short Line , " or
Sioux City &Ogdon , which Is being built
west from here. The first section of l'J5
miles has been graded and bridged rcadv
for laving the track , The ties and iron have
been arriving there in largo quantities for
Bonio time. As the charter for the brldgo
built by the Chicago & Northwestern across
the rivoVhora stipulates that all roads shall
have access to and use of tbo brldgo upon
paying a rcosonabfo toll , tha same to bo fixed
by the Bocrceary of war in case of disagree
ment , the plan of the Pacillo Short Line waste
to make connection on the Nebraska side of
the brldgo , and to ship materials over their
own track as construction progressed. So
the Short Line graded Its trackway up to a
con ncctlon with the bridge at the foot of the
Nebraska approach. There the Chicago &
Northwestern exploded a bomb , sending
word to the Short line authorities : "You
can use the brldgo according to the toims of
the charter , but u different arrangement
must bo made before you touch our ap
proaches. " The distinction Is obvious. It is
practically impossible for another company
to get over the bridge save by using tno Chicago
cage & Northwestern approach. But ublo
lawyers say that the terms of the charter up-
ply only to the bridge structure , not to the
uppronpb. The aeinumls of the Chicago &
Northwestern for use of the approach are so
exorbitant ns to bo prohibitory. The Short
Line Is checkmated. Its managers uro as
yet unable to decide on a course. To wait
for a congressional action amendatory of the
bridge charter is no remedy. But us the cnso
stands they cannot get a pound of iron or a
crofistlo upon their line across Northern Ne

THB LADY SMILED.
The Saturday afternoon train at Point
Tiburon was crowded as usual and people
ple were streaming through the cars in
the hurrioii search for vacant boats.
Little Mr. Tom N. Oddy , who was just
starting out on his two days' " vacation
know there would bo tliia rush and so
was among the lirst to scamper oil the
boat , clamber into the nearest coach
and pre-empt the best middle seat on
the shady side of the car. Then , after
the miserable ) fashion of his kind , ho
proceeded to cover the entire seat with
himself , his overcoat , his cano and his
vuliso.
This exorcise of selfishness accom-
plishcd , ho drew an evening paper from
Ills pocicet and pretended to bo absorbed
in the base ball icports. As ho road ,
however , ho could not help being con
scious of a persistent shadow that fell
upon the sheet. Other shadows wont
forward and backward like jostling
silhouettes , but this ono stayed. Glauc-
out of the corner of his right eye , ho
saw a small , black-gloved hand resting
upon the top of the beat just whore his
overcoat lay , and then , curiosity leading
him further afield , he glnnccd still moro
and found that the hand belonged to
one of the most charming women it had
ever boon bis jUndesorvod gbod fortune
" ' *
to see. .
Her face was rather pale , almost sal
low , indeed , but lit up by a pair of great
black eyes that wore luminous as a
Child's and as gentle ns a doo'n. ' The
node was short , straight , but rather lee
stout ; the mouth was full and red , with
a provoking little droop to the lower
lip , and the chin was round and slightly
double. The eyebrows were heavy antl
the hair was black , with a copper tint
at the edges. The dress was black , re
lieved by three great damask roses at
the bosom , and was so draped as to
show , with'some degree of accuracy ,
a lithe , but well-roundeii figure.
It may bo repeated that little Mr.
"
Tom ! N."Oddy felt that ho had never bc-
foro.8eon so bewitching a creature , and
when she looked at him in a pleading ,
timorous way , and asked in a low voice
if "this scat was engaged , " lie "Mvcnt
his things out of the way with a s > inglc
movement and doclarofl himself to bo
delighted to bo able to Hay it was not.
She thanked him with a little faltering
smile and sat down.
She was unprovided with current lit
erature , anil so little Mr. Tom N. Oddy
as the lirst advance , towards his de
termined plan of making himself agree
able , otlored her part of his paper. At
this she stiltoncd somewhat , then pret
tily declined the offer , saying that it
hurt her eyes to read on the train. As
she said so she turned these bountiful
orbs of herd upon tile young man , and
just to show that ho know , what was
proper under the circumstanced ho re
plied that ! io book or papur that hud yet
boon written was worth spoiling these
eyes ovor. She threw up ' h'o lids a lit
tle moro at this'then smiled again and
lifted her shoulders in something very
near a shrug.-
Little Mr. Tom , N. Oddy observed
this ho was a very observing young
roan und hazarded the rdmurlc" that
she was a foreigner. '
' NToJ' she replied , "I'was born in
California. ' ' , '
"Ah , indeed , " , said ho , with fine
spirit , "so was iso that wo are a native -
tivo HO n and daughter of the golden
west , and therefore related.1'
"That's quite ingenious , " she re
marked , "aro you a lawyer ! " '
"No " " rather
, ho answprod , "gutting
rather rod in tile face , "I'm connected
with Messrs. Sock , Tie & 'Co. "
"I have a a friend who duals there , "
said she , swviotl.v ; "aro you one of the
partners11" ! ,
"No , " ho replied , fooling very warm
about the cars ; "i" have charge of the
suwpondor department.1' '
"Oh , that must boi very nice , " said
Bho.
Bho."Yes
"Yes , " ho replied , but without any
great enthusiasm , for'tliitiVtvs a subject
on which ho did not particularly care
to converse. Ho did not mind it when
ho was with the "follows" who earned
their living in the same "stato of life , "
but nt present , when ho was deeply
posBObbca of the necessity of making an
impression iipon this bountiful creature ,
ho felt that Uio topic was ono that ought
to bo chungod as speedily aa possibln.
So , grasping his cano in biioh a wiry as
to bring a flashing ring within ran go of
these lovely oyos. ho asked their owner
if she was going far.
"To Santa Kona , she said , "and > ouV"
"Oh , Iain going on back of Clover-
dale for a little roughing it , " ho scild ,
with delightful airiness , although ho
forgot to add that the couu of the
roughing was his mother's ranch.
"Does it hurt you to rough it , " she
asked with such a gentle interest that
ho thought ho had never mot with any
thing qulto so tender und uiiBophitJti-
tated.
"Bless you , no , " ho cried , "why it's
the pleauantOBt kind of llfo , Fresh air ,
fresh milk and an occasfilona ] boar "
"Bears ! " HIO cried , "but BUroly these
nasty hugging things must bo danger-
OUB ! "
"Ol course they lire,1' ' ho said valiant
ly } "but I go well prepared. I htivo n
revolver in my valise , nnd thiscano , is
a sword cano. ' '
"Is It " eho asked with
really , now , n
rondy interest ; "how does it worltV But
ptrliam it is not right to display it
hoi'o. "
"I ( ton'tknow but what you'ro right , "
nssontod llttlo Mr. Tom N. Oddy , "os-
pocially us that follow across the way
lias ( lone nothing but stare at ua ever
Binco the train startod. I must say ho'a '
exceedingly impertinent to go looking
like that at people ho don't know.1'
"Ah , but that's not all , ' ' said she ;
"would you believe it ; that man haa
followed mo ever since I loft my house ,
got on the Bixmo boat , and now nero ho
is on the saino train. Oh , if I only-
hut there , don't lot's notice him. Toll
mo about your boar l\unu and how you

going to hug inc. "
Little iMi * . Tom N. Oddy wan trying
hard to roinombor the most oxoitinij
boar adventure ho had ever read of ,
when the engine gave n shrill ioot.
"Oh ( my ! " cried aho , laying hot1 hand
on little Mr. Tom N. Oddy's arm ; "I do
hollovo wo are going through a tunnol. "
There was no doubt about It , and with
another toot the engine plunged into a
long , black hole. A wild , wlokod liopo
leaned up in little Mi' . Tom N. Oddy'a
little mind , but it only lirod a inointiiit ,
for thorudlri < ctly ever thonoxt8oat\vas
hung a lighted lump , It only burned
ilitiily , and the light it gave out
In the blackness of the tuhnol was Vfiry
faint , but it was quite onoilg to stay lit
tle Mr. Tom N. Oddy from doing the
desperate thing ho hud coutuiuplatod.
Ho could sco the pale oulliuo-of hoi *
face and two lustrous spots which showed
where her eyes were glonming , but so ,
tooho could see the oval of that follow'a
face across the way , and was very sure
that the upper half of that oval , Just
whcro It'was cut by the dark line of the
hat brim , thcro were two other Oyos
which were ilxod very persistently in
his direction. There was no use trying
to talk against the roar of the tunnel ,
but when they were clear of It and in
the light once moro , little Mr. Tom N.
Gddy gave vent to his feelings by sav
ing.
"Confound that lamp ! "
"Why ? Does it smoke ! " she askod.
with gentle solicitude in both bur look
and tone.
"No , " ho said ; "but it it had not , boon
lit the car would bavo boon dart ; in the
tunnel , and then "
"Thou what ? "
"Woll , ono is HO much bolder in thp
dark , " ho replied , wilti Machiavellian
ovasivoncss.
"Don't you think you are bold enough
in the light ? ' * she asked , with captivat
ing arcliuoss.
"Sometimes , " ho answered.
There was a short silohco , duvlng
which little Mr. Tom N. Oddy brought
his diamond ring into bettor viow-anil
attempted to find out whether her foot

' That is the only tunnel on this part

Little Tom N. Oddy gave a start , "No ,
indeed , " ho said , "thero are three moro
between this and San Kufaol. "
She bat quint again looking ponslvoly
at her folded hands.
"Is your sword stick hollow ? " she
asked with curious i merest , considering

tion."Stick holiow ? " ho repeated ; * ' .yea.it
is a Cninose bamboo ; that is with the
joints bored out. Do you wish to exam
ine it1'
"No , " she answered with a sniilo lilro
a sunbunin ; "only I was thinking" lllatit
th ( ferrule , or whatever you call that
brass thimble thing at the ohd.Ot the
btick uoro cut oil and the swo'rd re
moved it would make a splendid blow

"Woll , well , " ho stammered , confus
edly , "whatin the world dd 1 want with

ablow-pino
"Oh , nothing , I suppose , " ho an
swered , with another Hush of a mmle ;
"only 1 was thinking , also , tlmt Ifmny
ono had such a blow-pipe tliat'-it would
just about roach from here to the lamp ,
and that a little , \\cll-dirdctcd pull
would blow it out without aiiy one being -
ing the wiser. " ' '
"Oh , vou , angel , " said little Mr.Tom ,
N. Oddy , mid , with two motions , ho
whipped out the blmrp sworu-blado and
slapped off the ferrule.
As bo did so. there cnmq another
warning toot from the engine and ftlit-
tlo smothered cry from his side.
"Why , hero's another tunnel , " she
cried.
Then , in the gathering darknesslit
tlo Tom N. Oddy cunningly laid the
bamboo tube along the side of the car
until Uio fuftlmr cud was just under the
lamp-ghtbs , set bin mouth to the
near end , gave a sharp pulT , and ,
probto ! the car was in what issoiiiolnnoa
known as Egyptian darkness. There
was a c'lorus ' of cries nnd smacking
sounds from all over the car as the
light wont oat , but little Mr. TotnTJ.
Oddy minded none of these , but turned
in a trumblo of excitement to Hiialch Ilia
reward from his captivating comuan-
ion.
ion.As ho Hung out his arms tp make a
prisoner of the dainty beauty at his
side , they were soiled by two liunds of
