Oh, how unfortunate I am, to have perhaps if I had worn plainer clochee to the mission but now the harm is done, and I will never forgive myself, never!" "Well," suggested Annie, with an eye at the crack in the curtain, "your broth er'll be home pretty soon, an' it's my be lief that he'll throw the brassy hsatben over the court house. An anyway the neighbors are raisin' the windows now." Miss Harvey screamed. "Oh, Annie," she cried, "go and call him over and tell him that be must not stand here looking at the house that way. Tell him that it troubles me Me and then I know he'll go." Annie's trim figure disappeared; and Yet Wing's teacher heard a sound of voices, which presently grew louder. She" listened. ATBtrie was saying with spirit: ' You just wait till I get Mike Finney a-holt o' you, you slantin'-eyed " And at this point she came back, her face crimson. "Them that wants the Chinaman can have him," she cried, indignantly. "He's settin' there on the steps like he meant to wait for the crack of doom, an' if your brother comes he'll think doom's cracked." This horrible possibility decided Miss Harvey. She puffed out the pink veet, dabbed both eyee with a little lace hand kerchief, and went droopingly to the door. Yet Wing still sat enthroned on the steps, placidly looking at 'the rain. 'Yet Wing," she murmured weakly. Yet Wing arose and smiled. "Yet Wing, you must go away," whis pered Mies Harvey. "You must not come to my house any more. I'm very sorry for you I hope we will be friends I shall still teach you, Yet.Wiog " "You go alay! ' retorted Yet Wisg, whom the gods had made mad. "Me come mally plitty gu'l An-nee she tleach me. Me no likee you fo tleachee you too old. Me Iait fo' Anee." ' - 'When'MissHarvey went back into the house where Annie was holding the fort behind the sofa armed with a broom, she walked very straight and her look was severe. "Has he gone?' questioned Annie tremblingly. "He has gone," replied Miss Harvey dryly. "Annie, you need never come to the mission after me again uever again. I rind that you have a most unfortu nate influence over those men. That poor, ignorant Yet Wing there is no telling what barm has been done to bim. He seems quite demented. Tell my brother he needn't wait dinner for me I have a headache." And Miss Harvey went to her own roam and locked the door and sat down in the corner furthest from the mirror. New York Press. making another apology for his abr t departure. Curious to see what had been dr ing the Comptroller's eyes to the w, , dow, the visitor looked out, and th -e on the broad pavement in front of tie western entrance to the Treasury bui . ing were ranged a squad of nowsb s black and white, whom Francis, I tie messenger, was endeavoring to bnrg into something like an orderly lm. The little fellows sent up a shrill cry of welcome as they saw Mr. Dawes com,. ing down the Treasury steps. "Get in line there, you fellows!" eaid the big Treasury official. "Hurry up or we'll be late!" And off they started, around the Treasury building, to a street car on which was a placard announcing, '-Thi& car for the Wild West show." This was the "important engagement" plead ed by Comptroller Dawes to make happy a dozen or more little fellows who had only dreamed of seeing the won ders of the Wild West show. A day or two before the coming of the show Mr. Dawes had instructed his messenger to tell the newsboys and bootblacks about the Treasury building, with whom he had made friends since coming to Washington, to be on hand at a certain hour on the day of the show and he would take them to see it. All the boys were there promptly, including "Honorable Ethan Allen White," a lit tle bow-legged mite of a negro, who fights his way every evening to be the first to offer Mr. Dawes a paper. "What is your name?" asked the Comptroller the 'first time this little fellow hailed him with the Washington newsboy cry. "Hain't got no name, mist ah. Ahn jist niggah." "Oh, you must have a name," eaid the Comptroller. "Let's see; I guess we'll call yqu 'Honorable Ethan -Allen TOtt.' How will that do?" 'Fust rate, boss," grinned the dark ; and the imposing title sticks to him. It was a merry party that went out to the show that afternoon. When Mr. Dawee went up to the ticket window Borne one whispered to the ticket seller that this was a prominent Government oScial to whom it would be well to show attention. "How many tickets, Mr. Dawes?'' said the urbane attendant. "Fifteen." "All right, sir. Pass right along, Mr. Dawes. Our ushers will take good care of you and your family." Mr. Dawes and "family" were gi-en good seats, and the wild delight of the Btre6t waifs over the performance and their enjoyment of a limitless supply of p3anuta mads the Comptroller feel fully . repaid. Mr. Dawes' Important Engagement A few days ago a gentleman called at the office of Mr. Charles G. Dawes, Comptroller of the Currency, at Wash ington, and found him, according to the Philadelphia Evening Poet, eating a hurried luncheon in his office; an un usual occurrence, as it is his delight to take an open air stroll shortly after noon and eat his luncheon with a friend or two at a near-by cafe. The gentle man began talking, but the Comptroller Beemed preoccupied, and kept glancing at the clock and looking out of the win dow. Finally, turning to the meesenger, he eaid: "Francis, tell those people that I will be with them in a few moments." Then Mr. Dawes said to his yiBitor: "I shall have to ask you either to has ten your business or to come back to morrow as I have a very important engagement this afternoon." The caller's affairs were easily dis posed of, and Mr. Dawes, grasping his hat, hastened out of the office, after A Great Newspaper. , The Sunday edition of the St. Louis Republic is a marvel of modern news paper enterprise.
