CROOKED JOE."
riY MA 11 Y A. 'I. STANSCUKY.
A great railway depot may not be the
best school for a boy, yet poor little Joe
Bryan had scarcely kuowu any other,
lie could not remember when the lonff
waiting-room, with their tiled floors. and
dreary rows of stationary settees, and
crowds of hurrying p'jopie, were not
(juite as familiar to him and more home
like than his mother's small, bare house,
which he knew as little more than a place
for eating and sleeping.
At an agt when any ordinary baby
might have been frightened into couvul
sions by the shriek of a locomotive, Joe
securely -fastened in his c ib, would stare
for hours through the great window, un
disturbed by the incessant, rush and roar
of arriving and departing trains.
He had been only six months old
when the dreadful accident happened
which, at one fell stroke, niado him
fatherless and transformed him from a
strong, well-developed infant, to a piti
ful creature, which even death refused
to take.
The older yard men told the story even
vet how young Michael Bryan, as
ttraight and manly a fellow as ever left
his green, old, native island for the bet
j tcr chance of the ne.v woild this side
the'sea, cume whistling ou of the round-
house that morning and stepped hastily
from before an incoming locomotive,
neither seeing nor he iriug another rush
ing up the parallel track. His mates
cried out to him too late!

When Joe was s-evcu years oil his

. So Joe's schooling ha I come to an un
timely end. Yet, meagre as' wars his stock
of book" learning, the development ol
his mind far out .rippe .1 .the growth of
his stunted .and deformed body. ' Every
body liked the. patient little fellow, tug
ging manfully at his mother's h aV
water buckets and running .willingly
every call of the stati' in men. A "t .v. :v
year' old he- had picked . ro. vo i

and civuld t -1 1 the precise. ' m
merit when any particular train might.be
expected with th? accuracy, of a time
'table.' ; . .
Yet the very quickness an l ardor
his nature deepened his sense of his in
firmity. The glances cast upo:i .: him by
9tranger-cyesr .some pitiful, some curious,
others, alas! expressive only of annoy
ances or (bsgust, rankled like so many
arrows in hh heart; nod one missed its
mark. How wistfully his eves followed
boys of his own age straight, hand
some, happy .who sprang lightly up ami
down the steps of the coaches, or
threaded their way along the crowded
platform". For one day of such perfect,
untrammelled life ho would have, bar
tered all the possible years before him.
Yet he never- put his yearning into
words, even to his mother.
"Crooked .Joe's a rum uu," said one
of his rough acquaintances. "He senses
bis trouble well enough, but he don't let
on to nobody." . ;
Mr. (Trump, the telegraph operator,
was Joe's constant friend. It was he
who, at "odd moments had taugdit the
boy to read, and had initiated him into
some of the mysteries of the clicking in
strument which to Joe's imaginative
mind. seemed some strange creature with
a hidden life ofdtsown.
Ir was growing toward dark one No
vember afternoon. Joe never an un
welcome visitor sat curled iu a corner
of Mr. Crump's o'lice, waiting for his
mother to finish her work. He was la
boriously spelling out, by the fading
light, the words upon a page of an illus
tiated newspaper, quite oblivious of the,
ticking, like that of a very jerky and
rheumatic clock, which sounded in the
room.
Mr. Crump, too, had a paper before
him, but his ears were alive. Suddenly
he sprang to his feet, repeating aloud the
message which that moment flashed
along the wire. , '
" 'Engine No. 110 running wild.

He ru-hed to the d.jjr, shouting the
news.

They caught up. the exhausted chill, I
flinging him from shoulder to shoulder,
striving with each other for the honor J
of bearing him, and so, in irregular,
tumnltuou3, triumphal procession they
brought him back to the depot and set
him down among them. . ? '
".Pass the hat, : pards !" cried one.
It had been pay-day, and the saved
engineer and fireman droppel. in each
their mouth's wages. Not a baud in all
the throng that did not delve into a
pocket. There .was the crisp rustle of
bills? the chink of gold and silver coin;
"Out with your handkerchief, Joe'
your hands won't hold it all! Why,
Youug one What?--what's the mat-
ter.'"
For the boy with scarlet cheeks anl
burning eyes, had clenched both small
hands behind his back the poor twisted
back laden with its burden of deformity
and pain.
"No! no!" he cried iu a shrill, high
voice. "Don't pay me! (.'an t you et
what it's worth to me, once --just" once
in my life--to be a little use- like other
folks;"
The superm ten lent had come from his
cilice. He laid his hand oa the boy's
head.
