THE STAGE DRIVER.
r"We Baa ridden three hours with a
stupid stage drive;, and I was cha
grined and disappointed. ; I had en
jgaged the' front seat two weeks in
advanoe and had expected to have a
ohanoe to study One of the old time
stage drivers pa his inativs heath?
but, -though it was said he had been,
on the route 20 years, he chewed , a
quid of tobacco and could not be in
id need to talk. Cn occasional grun t
Of assent of dissent was the most he
vouchsafed us, and it was with a
feeling of relief we changed stages
at Murphy's and had another driver.
v The drive from Murphy's to An
gel's is over IB miles of -dusty, unin
teresting road, and we had not look-
f edrfo'rwoidWtho rpj-ospect fwitb;
pleasure, but our new driVer had an
air of business and a looseness of
tongue that, were very, refreshing,
after the 'mummified 'silence of the
other man and promised well for our
entertainment , ., . -
f Then, too, we saw we had made a
mistake about our .first driver. , The
second man was of course the old
stager, with his many thrilling ad
ventures, and hairbreadth escapes,
while the first man was evidently a
novice in the business. We took our
seats and prepared ourselves for a
most interesting time . ? . .,
I "Hope you're all oomfortablo, la.
.dies," began our second man. in a
manner very different from the other
gruff bore. ,"1 do like mighty well
to have ladies in the front seat with
me, but I'm quite a'fav'rite with
tho ladies, it seems they always
want tho fiwnt seat"
j "Oh, I Bee you are the old stage
driver, " I exolaimed, "and yon will
tell us some of your interesting sto
rie How lovely! What is your
, mv real nam'e's-no matter. But
they call me Tennessee up here. -You

much that i've lost most of my

how all the old maids - get stuck on
roe an the widdcrs, too, " Tennessee
chuckled, i "By jimmlny crickets I
Excuse me if I get off a swear word
now an then I don't know which is
the worst old maids or widdera." I
took a sly glance at my companion,
who was a young and pretty widow
who lived in San Francisco. "I'm
writing, a book on xpy experience
with the women."
"Why," said the widow, "I should
think you would get married with
bo many to choose from." '
; "Well, it does seom that way. You
see, I did try it onot. I'm awiddor
er got, sons over J 20 year -old.
Wouldn't believe it now, would you?
Most people take me to bo bout 30,
I'm by right over! 40; but," great
Jupiter whipstitch I excuse me, we
old stagers can't help a little profan

marrying. ' I most always propose
to' the women before I gat them
through." 'My pretty companion
looked alarmed. "The women like
it particular., the widdera. Now
we're corning to a little down grade.
(Jot On a pretjy heavy load, so guess
well take it easy. Go Hong there,
Buse Nick, yon old rack o' bones. "
Wo rbundod the brow of the hill,
and the horses began the steep de
scent with a gentle trot, but within
a few seoonds their speed had accel
erated to hard gallop. The old
Concord -coach rolled from aide to
side, and we soemod in danger of up
setting, but our time bad not yet
come, and we reached the IbtcI road
in safety. Tho widow and I were
grazing at Tennessee with admira
tion. ' How feorlesi no wasi di

on the back seat was first to recover
bin speech. .
"1 think yon had better naoyonr

lous voice, r That driving was alto

Tennessee, with disgust "Not if I
know myself. We'll be all right" I
Kever had an accident in my life.
Why, last week I had 12 people on
board two women an a kid here in
front an one of the front wheels
rolled off, right on this down grade
an rolled 100 yards down the road,
an we Just settled down kind of com
fortable like an I nover spilled a per

you through safe, you can rest easy
on that"
j We were trotting along at a lively
rate, and I glanced nervously at tho
heavy axles. I hoped devoutly that
the wheels were secure.
Tennessee continued his talk with
the most nonchalant air, as if brakes
and wheels and, things of that ; kind
were of join consideration. 'JThia I
noose we are coming tomb . oujy
postofHoe between Murphy's an An
gel's," he said". Nioft little wwman

,. ,'We drew' pp at the doOr, and ' a
kindly faced woman came "iout with
the mailbag. . She gave us a little
nod of greeting and retreated mod
estly into the : doorway. yTwo or
three , towneaded ? children peered
out from behind her skirts at the
stage peopla , t?;&Yi-
"The schoolma'am's going down
this morning," said tho -postmistress.
(.--: .
' "We're protty well loaded,? said
Tennessee. I thought' s0, toot and
wondered where we would put tho
schoolmistress, but Tennessee seem
ed equal to any emergency. He
started tho horses. - '
"Good morning to you, ma'am,1'
he called to the woman and wafted
a kiss from the tips of his flngera,
presumably to the" children, but I
thought with intention to show us
how he managed those things with
the ladies. A few rods beyond we
stopped, and a sunburned girl came
Out ;
"Good morning," she called in a
fresh, clear voice. "Have you room
forme?" . .V:'V;' 1 " '
"Oh, yes," answered tho obliging
Tennessee. "Always room for one
more. Got any.trunks?" ,
: "Yes, two,'' and she glanced apol
ogetically at two enormous Saratogas
which stood just by the door. We
wondered whore they would be put
but Tennessee never hesitated. The
trunks were placed somewhere on
the baCk, and our driver sprang
nimbly into his scat again. We
started off on a brisk trot and Ten
nessee launched forth in a string of
thrilling narrative. ' 1 J
"See that hole over there?" he
said. "A friend of mine dugout
(3,000 in one day there. He wants
to sell the mine now. I'm tho agent
I tell you that I got more of that sort
of thing than I can attend to. Why,
I make more than four times my

No? Well, hero's something more
Interesting than claims-for pny
lug business beats claims all hollow
that's stage robbing. See that tree
over - yonder? That's where I was
bold up last time. Robbor didn't
get anythingrthougb. That's onet
when he miscalculated." - . ' " i,
I looked about quickly. We were
now in a dusty wilderness of pine
and chaparral. Not a sign of human
habitation near. Tennessee saw my
nervous glanoo. " --'"
"Mighty lonesome looking now,
ain't it? See them bullet ' holes in
my stago oovor? Them was put in
when we wore attacked by six rob
bers over here by Joaquin Murictta's
old homo."
I felt my blood run cold. I had not
seen the bullet holes before. - The
timid man gave vent to en audible
"Ah!" and the others preserved an
awe struok silence.' : i ;r " "-v
"Why," continued Tennessee, "I
guess every stone an tree has bid its !
robber some time or otner long nere.
I've had 15 or 20 holdups, an that's
nothing compared to some of the old
timers." - - - ' . - .
"Do yon think there is any danger
at this particular time?" inquired
the timid man. v' - -
"Why, that's hard to toll." said
Tennessee dubiously. "It was just

with startled eyes in tho direction

Don't you fear. If we git attackted,

calm, an you probably won't git more
than two or throe scattering shots."
i,. We were all well frightened, by
this time. The little schoolmistress
on tho back seat held her pea 00, but
the rest of us wore looking about
nervously and trusting our lives to
this wonderful Tennessee. The pret
ty widow was no longer haughty and
distant but at every noise in tho
brush grasped the arm of the brawny
driver and lookod appoalingly into
bis faoe.
"Now, ladies, when wo start down
this mountain, we are on tho homo

Alphonso Karr, tho French novel
ist had a great liking for sailors,
with many of whom he was on terms
of intimate friendship. Probably he
had also a feeling of something like
contempt for comfortable, worldly
people of the "middle class," tho
French " bourgeois, t One day at a
friend's house he dined unexpected
ly with seven or eight strangors. ,
Next to him sat a "rather pretty
woman,1' who at first seemed a littlo
timid. Thon as children do with
dogs, M. Karr says, finding ho did
not bite, she grew mora talkative,
and ended by saying:
"Theylsay a good many things
about you." ;'' ' -; -
"Indeed. . Toll mo what they ore,
and I will tell you whether they aro
true." ,. , . ... ,
"Well," said tho woman, "my
husband said to me the other day;
'It is astonishing and provoking to
see M. Karr going with all sorts of
pooplo. I met him the other day at
Honflour dining with somo pilots.'"
"Which is your husband?" asked
tho novelist
"The man at tho end of the table,
next the lady with tho groon hat",
"Ah, well, toll your husband that
I dined at Honflour with somo pilots
because those pilots wore frionds of

A "salioional," from Latin "sali
oot!' weeping, is tho French equiva
lent 'for.-the 'dulciana" in English
and American church organs. Tbe
"vox angelica," or "angol voioa," is
the softest stop in the organ. It does
not come op to anything angelic that
human beings, know of other than
tho quiot voicoof con&cienco, the lat
tor being far moro serviceable and
cheaper. Tho "vox celosto"is a stop
tuned slightly "out of tuno" so as to
pulsate or boat with, any otbervstop
playod with it It has nothing to do
with "celestial voices," as far as I
know. Wo presume boavon is por
feot and all natnro as well, but any
thing out of tune offends the mu
sician's ear. Thou why encourage
it? Tbe vox angolica effect can bo
got by playing on tho salioional
with U10 swell closed. Tho best vox
celeste not out of tune is the "trem
ulant" Both the angolica and ce
leste are excellent steps for indiffer.

. Two Curious coincidences happen
od during the progress of "The Vil
lage Priest" at the Standard, Johan
nesburg. In tho third act Marguerite
tells her mother that they do not
live in a bouse of tcarda, and hardly
wcro the words out of Miss Affy Dew
van's mouth than fearful crashes of
a minor earthquake kind were beard
bohind the scenes, the, "wings" tot
tered, sod a cabinet containing flow,
erpote - and ..vases , was overturned
with a great smash. A few sentences
afterward tbe coratease declared
"her idol was shattered," and sbo
gazed pensively upon the fragments
of broken vases. Upon Miss Affy
Bovan's exit a voice from tho"gods"
warned her "not to go out there, as
she might be killod," an apt sally
which a oontemporary says produced
a jronontl laogU from tbeapdience.
