Harper’s Magazine prints a story of an old Revolutionary soldier, a resident of Vermont, who never wearied of relating his own adven tures, and who, as he grew older, seemed to grow more and more imaginative. One “yarn,” of which he was particularly fond, had to do with the time when General Washington needed, for some rea son, to send a dispatch to General Lafayette. The trip was so pecu liarly hazardous that Washington hesitated to order anyone to under take it. He stepped out in front of a line lof men and asked fora volunteer. For a moment or two no one mov ed. ‘ ‘Then, ’ ’ the veteran Vermonter used to say, “1 just stepped out three paces and tipped ,my hat, and said I, ‘l’m your man, Mr. Washington. ’ ” He set out at once, and after many hair-breadth escapes, found General Lafayette and returned safely to camp. Then he hastened to the “Mr. Washington’s” tent and reported his errand accom plished. At this point in his story the old gentleman always waxed eloquent: “The general he said he thouht as how I was as plucky, ,and as able a man as he’d ever see; and then he took off' his sword and belt, and he handed ’em to me, sayin’ as how I was so much braver than him I’d earned the right to wear ’em instead of him. He thought as how I was so much more fitten for sich honor than him, an’ he want ed me to take his place.” At this interesting point the narrator would stop and wait till some one asked, as some one al ways did: “What did you say. Mr. L—?” Then he would draw himself up to his full height and reply: “I says to him, says I, ‘Mr. Washington, you’re a better eddi cated man than 1 am; you keep ’em yourself,’ ” Feltonism is worse than the rankest populism. With the aged Hopper it is “anything for office. Are Some of These. Yours. Are those ugly ill-tempersd words spoken so sharply really yours? Are those rude habits of whis pering, of usiuu slang and ot con tinual lack of quietness yours? Are those dreadful habits, of impertience to your parents, of lack of consideration for others and of untidiness yours. Are the rough ways, the scream ing voice, yours? If they are take my advice, carry them nut to the great sea of oblivion and drop every one far down into its depths. Weekly Excursions to California.
