He Stole a Peach.
There is no longer any question
about the efficiency of the police
force of this city.
Friday, a farmer from one of the
upper counties came to the city to
sell cotton. Late that afternoon
he passed Geo. Morris’ store, and
on a stand was a tempting array of
California peaches. The farmer
could not resist file temptation to
picked one up, and kept on
around the corner to the Fourth
Ward.
Officer Copeland was standing in
front of Lowerys drug store, and
thought the fellows actions were
suspicious, so lie went in and asked
M '. Morris about it.
After receiving the information
that the fellow had taken the
peach without the permission of i
anyone, Mr. Copeland followed
him into the Fourth Ward, and
ran him into a wagon vard-.
W nen accused ot stealing the fruit
he acknowledged it, and paid the
five cents for the peach

THE HUSTLER OF ROME, SUNDAY OCTOBER, 14- 1894.
fl TRAGIC TRAGEDY,
I
(Once upon a time while speed
ing the summer at Niagara Fulls
and having a good time, the editor
of the leading society paper ask'd
me for a Short Society Sketch.
The following touching story was
the result ol his bo'dm es —The
author.)
“Help help, o- I shall rscep’’’
I the words rang out clear in 'he
midnight air this 14 day of Aug.
I 1889.
The snow was three or four fee
deep all up and down Broad Street
I and here and there a stray flower
might bo seen showing its fragrant
blossoms as though in protest of
this wilderess of white.
• Hist what sound was that’’
laughingly remarked Reginald de
Smythe, drawing his cl*»ak more
closely around his well knit form
and wiping the perspiration from
his manly fcrehead.
“Tis but the sighing of the
winds ’’ hissed Alonzo Sapolio.
Carefully lighting a 10X perfecto
he passed Reginald a “Cubaro di
Ramino,” which was & “two ft-r.”
Turning suddenly on his heel he
walked down the street at least a
block and then came back.
‘Tis now almost my dinner hour
Tn about seven hours or more that
East Rome car will come. Until
then farewell ’’ He said with a
wicked glance into the fair and
honest face of Reginald.
“ Alas* alas, said Reginald, he
speaks the truth, what shall I do
what shall I do.
II
Reginald de Smvthe was the hero, i
Os course, you know that, for all he- '
r ’ps are named Reginald or Clar
ence. He was not like other heroes,
however, he was only the handsom
est, wittiest, most geierous, and
smartest young man on bis side of
town. Reginald was very poo’.
Alonz > Sapolio was the villain and
neveij’poke. hissed. H ; *
was very deceitful as his name would
indie tc. His name was Savour, but
his record w is not clear. See !
It is part of the contract that each
assault and attempt to joke must be
explained. He smoked cigarettes and
was very wealthy.
111
R. ginaid thought Alonze was his
friend and therefore he made him his
co itidant.
They both loved the beautiful, ae
<o upliehed bewitching, and alfogeth
er lovely Opeha Hyacinth Roseb'os
som. Mii-s Roseblossom was the only
daughter of the editor of the lead
ing paper in town, tlieref ire a
great heiress.
That part of the city that hi r papa
didnot own he thought he did an bow
Reginald told Alonzo of his love and
inter med him tha* he would use eve
ry means in his power to win her.
“I shall use you as a mutual
friend Alonzo’’ he said oue day in
a ric rac tone.
“Use Sapolio’’ hissed Alonzo,
“never,never, though every fence
and daily paper in all this laud
should proclaim the advice.”
“Wie gehts, partz vons francis
arma virumque earn,” sai 1 Regin.
aid in several different languages.
Reginald waa very smart and
spoke a 1 kinds of tongues.
Reginald left the office of Alonzo
and walked down the seven
flights of stairs in his m ist haugh
ty in inner. “To tuink that .1
should have been so insulted by
1 this low born Sapolio whose very
name suggests dirt and filth. I a de-
Smyth. O tempera O mores Heaven
be praised I have forgotten my La
tin anyhow.”
This thought seemed to please
him a whole lot and therefore he
j began planning his revenge.
IV
The town was all excitement.
Vegetables were at a premium.
There was to be a show in town
and Gordon Hiles and Scullins
were both going, and all the other
boys and people. But they don't
amount to much.
Reginald saw one of the stands
and one of the lithographs.
“Ah, ha,” he sighed in a- pale
blue tone of voice, “my revenge i
sweet and close at hand.”
V
“Dr Yerser what kind of a show
is that tomorrow night at thb op-
era house” laughed Reginald, one
j day to the genial doctor, s > well
known to all people of ths city.
“Oh, elegant , the best of the sea-'
i sun, very fine sir, very fine” said I
the Doctor in his own copywright-'
I cd business-get I inf - nanner.
“Give me two tickets and re
s?rve them way d ovn in front,
right next to I)n 1 Turner, and !
send them with my compliments
to Alonzo Sapolio" taid Reg-1
i in: Id.
“Cusses on him” he muttered in [
I thunder toi ei “1 have him now.’
VI
i “What is this, said Sapoii >, tear
ing open the note in a most violent
i manner, “a couj le o “comps” to
(he show.” Will 1 please accept?
Will a duck swim? Will a bird
fly? Will a man take a couple of
| "comps” to the opera house? Well
I should rath. r gue is. ”
VII
Reginald occupie 1 a back s at in
the “peanut” where he could watch
the whole show and likewise s ee
the effect of his grim revenge on
Alonzo.
The play went on and as act sue
ceeded act Reginald grew impa
tient.
“Well he ntvercome, never come,
he muttered sot o voce. “At last
at last,” he cried as the seven
teenth item on the program was
reached “revenge is mine”
The 17th. item read “The great
and only C Morgan C. in his in
imitable creation “Old chestnuts
revived”
Reginald’s vengance" was com-1
plete.
The End.
Only One.
There was once a little girl
and the only reason there is none 1
such now is that she has grown a
big girl—who talked of every thing
in th * plural. Especially was she
likely, at the table, to as < for!
“forks,” “spoons,’’ or “potatoes,”
when it was but one of the articles
she really desired.
One day her papa sad to her at !
dinner, “Kitty, don t ask for bis-,
cuits, Say, ‘please g ve me a bis- I
cuit.’You don t want more than '
x • ~ I
one at a time.
“No, papa,” was the dutiful an- I
swer; but presently camo the re
quest :
“Please may I have some rolls?”
“Aroll,” corrected her father,
I and she repeated the words care
fully.
Then all went well until the
cheese was handed round, and
this Kitty was not usually allowed
to eat. Yet she delighted in it, and
realized that her success in ob
taining a be determined
by her manner of asking for it.
Leaning forward, she said anxious
ly, in a soft sweet voice :
“Papa, will you please give me
a chee?”
No Quarrels.
“Auntie Coll ms.” and old color
ed woman who lived in a small
country town, was well known to
the residents by reason of her good
cooking and queer sayings. Ac
cording to her own story, she had
peculiar gifts as a peacemaker.
“No’m, I never had no great
trouble bringin’ up my fambly,”
she said to a visitor who asked her
about her daughters.
“The gals wus good gals ’nough
till they got gain’ into sassiety.
Then, bless ye! ye couldn’t live
longwith ’em. They wa’n’t satis
fied to quarrel ’long of me, but
they bed to get married an’ quar
rel ’long of their husbands.
“Now I never would stan’ no
such doin's, an’ I tole ’em so.
“I says, ‘Now gals, you knows
j ‘st what my principalities be ; you
knows jest how well I’ve tried to
fetch you up, you knows jest how
peaceable I allers lived with your i
pa.’
“An’ldid,” continued auntie,
with earnestness; “me an’ him
never had no quarrellin’. No’m ; I
never excused it nor encouraged
it When Pete’d kinder ferget his
self an’go to givin’ me port talk
I’d jes pick up the lamp or some
thin’an’give it a throw right at
him. He knew'twas a ’quivocation
tor him to keep still, an’ so we
never had no trouble,
“1 tidied the gals, an’ I tolled
’em they must manage to live
peaceable, same as their ma did.”

Nothing in This World
Is so cheap as a newspaper, whether it be
measured by the cost of its production or by its
value to the consumer. We are talking about
an American, metropolitan, daily paper of the
first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. It’s so
cheap and so good you can't afford in this day
of progress to be without it. There are other
papers possibly as good, but none better, and
none just like it. It prints all the real news of
the world—the news you care for—every day,
and prints it in the shortest possible space. You
can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do a day’s
work too. It is an independent paper and gives
all political news free from the taint of party
bias. In a word —it's a complete, condensed,
clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the
largest morning circulation in Chicago or the
west —125,000 to 140,000 a day.
Prof. J. T. Hatfield of the Northwestern
University says: “THE CHICAGO RECORD
comes as near being the idea! daily jour’
nal as we are for some time likely to find
on these mortal shores. ”
