STAMMERING SAVED HIM
Conductor Restored to His Bun Be
cause He Couldn't Talk Back.
"Stuttering Is not always an afflic
tion. I know a case in which it was a
bleating in disguise.” Thue said a
conductor on an incoming train from
New York, and he continued:
“There was my friend Dan. Buck.
He had to whistle before he could ask
a man for bis fare. He used to carry a
alate and when be got mad be would
write bis cuss words on bis slate and
hand it tn tbe man lie was mad at.
He saved time by it Dau had a run
out of Chicago of about 200 miles.
His train picked up sh oping care at
some cross line in Wisconsin when be
was coming into Chicago. It was his
place to take up tickets in the sleeper,
but there his duty stopped. It was
business of tbe sleeping car conductor
and h's partner to see that passengers
were put off at stations for which they
were ticketed One day Dan found a
doctor in tbe sleeper who bad a ticket
for tbe third station ahead Dan told
the porter, and bad no occasion to re
turn to the sleeper until tbe station
was sighted. To make sure that the
doctbr would not miss his place, for
tbe doctor’s mission was one of life or
death, Dan went back to tbe coach.
His passenger was not there. He made
signs to the porter, who explained that
be had put the man off at the last sta
tion. The porter had so understood
the conductor.
"Dan sat down and filled both sides
of the slate with everything he could
think of that was mean. But when
be banded tbe elate to the porter the
latter said be oouldn’t read slate writ
ing. That made Dan madder, and he
broke the slatg over the donkey’s
bead.
“Tbe doctor sued the company, of
course, for $5,000; they-never sue for
less. The company, alter looking into
the case, laid Dan off for sixty days.
He just knew be bad a lay off. He
called on tbe superintendent to ex
plain more fully, but he was too slow
in getting his mouth off, and that
gave the superintendent a chance to
cuss Dan black and blue. Dan never
got in a word, and when tbe superin
tendent got through it was time to
close the shop, and Dan bad to make
a train which carried him home.
"Dan was about forty days getting
bis mouth in condition so as to tell
the superintendent what he thought
of him, when he got a note one day to
take bis old run, and inclosed in tbe
notification was a voucher for forty
days’ pay. So you see it isn’t always
tbe fellow who can say a thing quick
that gets there.”—New York Sun.

An Impressive Ceremony.
A rich widow in a town not far from
Winter Harbor was making arrangements
for the marriage of her daughter, when
the Methodist conference met in that town
and 20 ministers came to attend it. She
invited them all to the wedding, and, her
pastor belonging to that denomination,
she expressed to him a wish that the cere
mony be arranged so that they could all
participate. The dominie thought the
matter over and told her that he could de
vise no scheme by which her wish could
be gratified. He did not see how the mar
riage service could be cut up into 21 seg
ments, and, furthermore—-and he express
ed it as delicately as possible—he did not
think the members of the conference
would consider it dignified to engage in
any such performance.
As the widow was a person of great im
portance, he had to treat her gingerly.
She is the largest contributor to the sup
port of the church, and tbe parson expert
bed a handsome fee for hitching her daugh
ter to the most eligible young man in
town. Hence he promised to consult with
some of the brethren and see her later, but
she did not wait for him. She took mat
ters Snto her own hands and formed a
plan that at least had the merit of origi
nality. She went direct to the presiding
elder, invited him to perform the cere
mony and suggested that after he had pro
nounced the couple man and wife all the
members of the conference stand up in a
row before the pulpit and recite the Lord’s
Prayer in unison.—Chicago Record.
