They said the train* was an boar behind time, nnd that information ninde ns all feel pat oat nnd annoyed. Therefore, wlien a boy of aboat 14, poorly dressed and having a tramp* isb look, came along tbe platform asking for financial aid to get him down to R—, on tbe train we were waiting for, it wna bat natural that one ami all replied: "If you want to go to R—, take tbe dirt road. Yon look ns if yon were used to tramping.” He bad no Bancy word in reply. When be Went and stood in tbe light of tbe window, and I saw bow be shivered in tbe cold wind, nnd bow worried and aDxions be seemed to be, I grew ashamed of my gruff words. I saw two or three look him over as I bad dope, and I bud no doubt that they felt us I did. I ought to bave walked up to tbe boy and said: "Here, my lad, if you want to go to R—, I’m willing to help yon. Take this half-dollar. How happens it that a lad of your age is cold, ragged, hungry aud away from homo and friends ?” Bat I didn't. J edged toward him, ashamed, and yet not quite ready to acknowledge it to him, and all of n sadden be disappeared. I reasoned that* be bad gone np to tbe village, and that be bis pretending to want lo go to R— was all a trick to boot honest men. When yon' reason that way tbe heart grows bard pretty fast, and you feel a bit revengeful. We talked tbe-matter over—four or five of ua—and the conclusion was that tbe boy would die on tbe gallows. Well, came along after awhile, find it was moving away after a brief stop, when a piercing shriek followed by shouts and calls, brought ua lo a stop. "Somebody’s run over!” called a voice, and in a moment tbe conches were emptied. ’ Yes, somebody bad been mu over. —bad a leg cut off above tbe knee by oue of tbe cruel wheels. Who wus it ? How did it happen ? It ivuh our bo^—fbe lad who was on bis'way !o tbe gnllows. He bad crept under tbe coacb to steal a ride on the tracks. Ttiero bo was, having only a few min utes to live—bis face as white us tbe suow-banks, bis eyes roving from face to face—his lips quivering as twenty ineu bent down uud spoke words of sympathy. “Who ure you ?" asked the conduc tor. "Tim.” "You shouldn’t bave tried it.” "But I wanted to go to R— so bad. I was up here to tiud work, but no body would have me, trod yesterday I heard that mother was dead.” “But anybody would bave given yon sixty cents to pay your fare.” •'Oh, iu* they wouldn’t. I asked lids and lots oi men nnd they said I ought to l e iu jail I-»I—wanted— There we were—they half dozen of us who bad repelled biin with insult— wronged bis young heart still more— sent him to bis horrible death under the wheels. We itared not look into bis face—we even sliuuned each other. It it could ouly come to pass again —if Heaven would but send him bnck lotarlb and let him stm-d before us ns be did that winter's night—bnt it is too’late!—M. Quad. The Biogimmpton Republican says a flower that is often put lo the base use is ttye lady slipper. And mt such occasion it has been known to make a jobnuy-jnmp-up. A BICH MAN’S WIFE. * The big society people, writes a New York*correspondent, nre not all tbe big millronaires. In fact, tbe princeB of finance do not enter so ciety at all, and their representation in tbe social circle is feeble at beet. Tbe very rich families keep in the background, in fact, if indeed they do not gradually gravitate into retire ment. Tbe' only one of tbe VanderbiltB who cuts any brilliant social figure is Mrs. Frederick Vanderbilt. She gay and enjoys the world. “She incurred tbe displeasure of old man Billy,” said a prominent New York society man to a reporter, “for being much older tbau Fred when she married him. But ebe controls aud guides her young husband nnd keeps bim out of tbe scrapes tbe other boys have got into.” “Then there is a division in tbe family ?” "So far as Mrs. Fred is concerned, tbe old man doesn’t like her and sbe doesn’t like the old maD, and neither ,i8 backward in showing it.” "Sbe takes charge of hor husband; you say ?” "Yes, and manages all bis money for bim. Tbe resalt is, be is tbe only one of tbe Vanderbilts who hasn’t been played for a sucker in Wall street.’’ “Sbe ninst be a smart woman.” ^"She is—yon bet on it.” . ‘‘Then why does tbe ola man dis like her?” ' ' "Because sLo’s smarted tbau be is bimselL Ho remembers that tbe com modore’s wife was much older than he, and that she led bim on to for tune. Billy objeots to ^be fate that keeps tbe Vanderbilts irfnie leading strings and led nronnd by tbe noso by women, however baDdsome, or no complished, or smart.” "Bat most of the millionaires trace tbeir snccess back to tbe wives of tbe founders of tbeir houses, don’t they ?” "No, they don’t if they can help it, but it’s true, all the same. Tbe com modore’s wife showed biro bow to uiuke money aud savo it, six pence at a time, before be had a bank account; old John Jacob Astor was simply tbe agent for bis wife, who had the busi ness tact of tbe firm. Tbe million aires were made rich by tbeir wives, and iu every instance they were older than tbeir husbands.” "Then what is tbe matter with King William ?” “He is sore because Fred has struck the family tradition, and, according to tbe rules, is going to build np a fortune as big as tbe original without aid.” "He regards Nils. Fied, then, as a sort of rival ?" ‘•Yon’ve grasped tbe snbject. The old man is jealous.” It is related’of a distinguished law yer \Vbo observed that bis wife always delayed ten or twenty minutes before she came down to dinner, being lotb to lose so much precious time daily, be commenced the composition of a work.which he prosecuted only while lie was tlius kept waiting. *Tbe r<-- WITH THE tVIYS. A woman may be as true as steel, bnt then you know some steel is high ly tempered. “Do you love me still, John ?” whis pered a sensitive wife to her husband. "Of course I do—the stiller tbe bet ter.” * Weddings tfesulting from chance acquaintances tpade doring summer vacations may well be pnbtisbed un der the head "easaalties.” When a young man is far, fas away from home amid gay company, such a trifle ns a collar‘button -flying oft will hurt him more than to break a leg. “Yon always stay at home in tbe evenings now?” "Yes; ray wife’s fa ther’s gave her $500 for a birthday present, and I nm teaebing her bow to play draw-poker.” A close observer at a theatre has come to tbe conclusion that there is not much difference betwixt [going ont between Uie acts and coming in between tbe drinks. Woman came .after man, and sbe has been after" him. ever since. This is an old pim, bat it’is too good end true to be relegated entirely to tbe dead past, so we repi'odnco it once more. “Daughter, what were "you looking nbont in cbnrcb to much for? Yon shouldn’t do tbfit .way.” “Why, I was just thinking wbat n nice skating rink it would be it all tbe benches were taken ont.” An oil-country resident, after bear ing Goldsmith’s poem, “Tbe Deserted Village,” rend in an eloquent manner, drew a long bieatb, and said: "That village of sweet Aubarn reminds me of Petroleum Centre.’’ When a Massachusetts man walked seventeen miles to see a man bung, and tbe prisoner was respited, tbe disgnsted travelor eat down in a fence corner nnd hoarsely inquired if this country was drifting back to barba rism. If men and women wonld only dis play half ns maoh frantic energy and ability in getting abend in life ns they do iu dodging across tbe ’streot in front of an approaching team or horse car, we should all be Vanderbilts be fore 1890. It is cluimed that tbe most dis gusted nnd exasperated people on tbe cootinet are tbe New Mexican In dians. Tbe new ■admistration has appointed a bald-bended agent. They justly regard Ibis ns a direct infringe ment on their right to produce bald- bendednets. “We encourage the interchange of visits with patrons of other resorts,” said tbe proprietor of a leading sum mer hotel. "When our people are away for tbe day they pay for tbe dinners they don’t bave, and when tbeir friends return tbe call-they pay for tbe dinners they do have; so we gain both ways.” * . "I say, Longsbot, where’s tbe dog you btiuted with last eens<«u ?” "Ob, I bad to shoot bim. Good dog; cost mo $55 when a pup.” “WbAt was suit tvns at the en.l ,,l fifteen jv BI>; the matter with bitu?” ‘.’Hydropbo- a hook in three volumes quarto,which | bia; worst way.” “Sure?” “Yes; bus met with a large saleamd is much bowled and bad fits every time a milk needed. <iti> I wagon passed by tbe bonse.” A Wall street broker went into a i saloon mill called for whisky. Thb ;—'~r T~: r r.r~r -- DOLLY’flKEWAKD. barkeeper set out a bottle and a glass of water. * What’s that?” asked tbe broker, ponring out the liquor. • “Whaler, sir.” “ tVhat’s it for? - ’ "To mix wit It the whisky "Well, take it away. I am Jay Gould.” "That actress,” said young Hyson, "has bepu playing dancing parte evf*r since I was a boy, and she isn’t a year older on tbe bills than ebe was twen ty years ago.” No," said old Tintag, "that’s because sbe has renude ber j youth every season.” And then they Do yon think! both fell back into tbe zareba to j change tbeir breath. ^ A Story for tho Little Ones, The children gathered round my chair, clamoring for a story. So, taking little Graeie, tbe yonngeet, up into my lap, I inquired wbat I should tell them. • < - "Ob, tell us about when you'weie young, or any story you tbink of,” replied they’all at once. "Well," I said, after a few minutes of gilent thought, "I think I have never told you this one;”, so they nil settled themselves comfortably, and I began: • * Once there was a little girl whom I shall call Dolly. Sbe was eight years old, and sometimes sbe not a very good girl, I am sorry to any. Dolly’s father waB dead, sotsbe and ber mother (supposed, for be went to sea when Dolly was only a year old, and nevor returned. Her mother hatj seon a notice in a newspaper, which bad accidently come in ber .way, announcing the loss of tbe ves sel on which ber husband went. Af ter waiting, nnd looking hopefully for Ills return five years in vain, she had moved uway from tbe village to a city, where she thought sbe coul-.l earn ber living by taking iu washing. , Sbe was very poor, nnd had to work bard to Dolly and herself alive bat sbe vfns a good woman, nnd al ways managed to send Dolly to Sun day school, and there Dolly -was tmght many good things. Sbe was told about ber Heavenly Father, and she learned to’pray to Him. Oae pleasant day in spring sbe was ont playing with tbe cbildreu who lived ber, when ber mother called ber to do an errand, bnt this, ns yon all .know, was rqtbor a bard thing to do, especially os sbe had not much time to play. She sent np a silent petition to God to God to belp ber do as ber mother wanted her. Her mother asked ber to oarry some clothes which .ebe bad just washed and ironed to Ms. McArtonV, wbo lived in a large on one of tbe principal streets. Now, this was » bonse to wbicb Dolly greatly disliked to go, bnt in stead of saying, "I don’t want to go,” ebe cbeerfnily took np tbe basket and set off. It was a long walk, but Dolly did not mind it ranch, and when sbe reached tne bouse ebe was shown into the ladies’ nice parlor, and told to wait no til tbe pay. There was o’Dly one other person iu tbe room besides Dolly. This was a man to be judged, about forty years of age. Tbe gentleman spoke to Dol ly kindly, and Dolly was led by this pleasant tpan to tell bim ber story. Alter ehe bad’ told bim about bow ' father bad gone to sea,' and had never been beard from rii>p<>. the stranger asked asked ]>■■'!.., h.-,- uiitfte, and when sbe told bim be immediately clasped Dolly iu bis arias, and cried, "O, my darling daughter, I am your father, whom yon supposed lost.” He then went heme with Dolly,ami all was explained, bow when tbe ves sel went down he had clung tti a spar, amt was picked np by a vessel going to India. There be had been kept several years, end when be at last re turned be eonld not find them. Now don't yon think Dolly received nice reward for ber clleerfulness ?’’ for if sbe bad not gonejmmediatelv, she might 'not have e-*en ber fathef and might still have been poor and working bard. Aud they‘all said yes. Simplicity of character is the natu^ r-tl result of profonod thought. Tbe cowardly hornet always turns its tall to tbe foe.
