I lie eve of Jay was being shut beneath it* western lid When u truest arrived at a cottage door in a wealth ot ivy hid ; No hand was stretched to welcome him, no voice was raised to greet 1 hi* veteran of the tireless host that live upon the street. >'or many a man of his turn of mind had been that way before, And the little woman had often vowed she nev er would tieed them more. Me leaned against the arbor, heaved a subter ranean sigh, And asked with the air ©1 a broken man, “if he might lie down and die i-eneath that rustling ivy, ’mid the sun's de clining rays, And close his eyes in a spot so like his home of early days. f was on a distant river bank, my mother’s home nud mine, * In a village whose name you may have heard— ‘Old Bingen on the Rhine ’ But my mother murricJ u nobleman, and 1 wo* set adrift. 1 o earn my bread by the sweat of my brow in many a grievous shift; And when I arrived at man’s estate I turned to the golden West, W here the star ot Hope seemed beckoning me across the Ocean's crest. I've struggled’mid encouragements. I’ve strug gle l with despair, When the only happy hour 1 spent was the one 1 spent in prayer. 1 ve prospered and I’ve failed in turn, with Fortune's tickle breath, Till now in seeking the land of my birth I fear I’ve found my death. Right over yonder, gentle friend, that house in the locue: trees, U here the Universulist parson lives, they gave me poison* 1 cheese. I suppose it’s a part of their creed to think ’twas better for all concerned To give me a boost to the only bourne whence a tramp has never returned. I know my life-work’s ended ; there’s a rattling in my thro it, And my vitals feel as though I’d swallowed nil animated goat. •'Ti il niv sister" In re site stopped the' mail, Hi-*’, soothed him as lie lay, • Th go and get the doelor, jlist a half a mile away.” The sufferer rolled hi; bloodshot eye— *’Tweri- shot at him wouhl hit him on the! head with the butt of his revolver whenever Bister happened to get on top, he had not really a first-class chance. Pretty soon the combatants rolled over in the gutter, with Bister underneath, lying in the mud. While he reclined there his antagonist took hold of Bister’s nose with his teeth and chewed it as if noses were his favorite diet and lie were seriously hungry. When he let go the other man tapped Bister’s skull a few more line s> with his pistol, and then the two picked up their victim and soused him in the cauai, from which they fished him a few times later bv ins sorting a boat hook in the back of his coat. As they dragged him out, nearly dead, the man with the pi-tol picked up Bister’s hat, and after studying intently for a minute the name pasted upon the inside of the crown, said : “ Why, sec here, Harry, there’s some mistake! I’m afraid we’ve got I the wrong man. I say—you, sir—is your-name Alex. Bister?” Mr. Bister gasped out that it was. “ Well, it’s too had,’’ said the man. “ Now, do you know, I mistook you for Judge McGrath of Little Rock, who cheated us in a land claim.” “ Do 1 look like him ?’’ asked Bister, in a faint voice. “ You’re as much like as twins. It’s a thundering shame. I hope you’ll accept my apology for treating you so impolitely.’’ “It occurred to me ihat it was rather impolite,’’ whi<; ered Bister, “ but don’t mention it.
