."1 hear, you bad burglars over to
your bouse last night," said the gro
ceryman to, the bad boy, as he came
ia and artt-en the counter, right over
a little gimlet bole, where the grocer
had fixed a darning needle so that by
pulling a string the needle would fly
up and run into the boy about an inch.
The grocerymaa had been laying for
the boy for two days, and now that
he had got him right over the hole for
the first time, it made him laugh to
think how he would jump and yell, as
he edged off and got ho d of the string
The boy looked unconsciouB of the
impen&ndg danger; the grocery man
pulled, and the boy sat still ; he pulled
again, and again, and finally the boy
said: : p i': -i "f '
V'Yes, it is reported that we had
burglars over there. O, you needn't
pull that string any more. I heard
you was setting a trap for me, and I
put a piece of board in&ide my pants,
and thought I would let you exercise
yourself. Go ahead, if it amuses you.
it don't hurt me, ior a cent.'' i.
The groceryman looked sad, and
then smiled a sickly sort of a emile at
the failure of his plan to puncture the
boy, and then he jsaid, "Well, hdV
was it? The policeman didn't teem
to know much about the particulars.
He said there was so much deviltry
going on at your honse that nobody
could tell when anything was serions,
and he was inclined to thick it was a
put up job." ;
"Now, let 's have an Understanding, ''
said the boy. "Whatever I say, you
are not to give me away. It's a go,
is it? I have always been afraid of
you, because you have a sort of decayed-egg
look about you. You are
like a peck of potatoes with all the
big oaeson top ; a sort of strawbeiry
box, with the bottom raised up, so I
have thought you would go back on
a fellow. But if you won't give this
away, here goes : I - .
"Yo see, I heard ma tell pa totring
up another bottle of liniment last
night, j When ma (corks herself, or,

yre laid for pa. This liniment ma Uses
is oiful hot, and almost blisters. Pa
went to the Langtry fandango, and
didn't jet home uatil eleven o'clock,
and me and chum decided to teach
pa lesson. I don't think it is right
for a raan to go to. the theatres and
not take his wife and good little boy.
So we! concluded to burgle pa. We
agreed to lay on the stairs, aud when
he came up my chum was to hit him
on the head with a dried bladder, and
I was to stab him on his breast pocket
with a stick, and break the liniment
bottle, and make him think he was
killed. .It couldn't have worked bet
ter if he hacl, rehearsed it We had
talked about burglars at supper time
and got pa nervous, so when he eame
upstairs, and was bit -ontbe-nead
with the bladder, the first thing he
said was "Burglars, by inTrhty," and
he started to iro back, and then I hit
him on the breast pocket, where the
bottle wa?, and then rushed, by bim.
down stairs, and taid in j a stage'
whisper, "I guess he is a dead man,'
and we went down the cellar and up
the back stairs to my room and un
dessed. Pa 'hollered to ma that he
was murdered, and ua called me, and
I cakne down in my night shirt nd
the hired girl she come down, and pa
ws on the lounge, and. he aaid his
life blood was fast ebbing away.; He
held his hand on the' wound and said
hecpuld feel the warm blood trickling
clear down to his boots. I told pa to
staff some tar into the wound, same
as he told me to pat on my lip to
make my moustache grow, and pa
Said, "My ! boy, this is no time for
trifling. Your pa is on his last legs.
When I come up stairs, I met six
burglars, and I attacked them and
forced four of them down, and was
going to hold then and send for the
police, when two more, that I did pot
know, jumped upon nit, and. I wait
getting the best of them, when one of

Tha Mournful Xaa.
HOW THE 0SHK0SH B0TS ENJOY A BIT OF
: FUN. -
A few weeks ago a man registered
at an Qshkosh hotel, and was assign
ed a room, and everybody 'noticed
that he was a most mournful looking
man. He never . said a word, but
there was that about his face, and
his actions that showed he Was labor
ing under" some great sorrow. He
bad his snppertaken to his room, and
the. waiter said the maa never spoke,
and seemed to- be the saddest look-
ing man he eyer saw. The guests
all talked the matter over, and they
decided that the man was goieg to,
commit suicide.. A traveling man
who had a room next door,, to the
solemn man, and who had previously
occupied adjoining rooms in differ
ent hotels to three men who had
comamted suicide, felt . that he was
about to experience a fourth shock
cf the same kind, and he ; lay in hia
bed all night an,d never slept a wink
believing that the next moment he
should hear a revolver shot or the
death straggle of his neighbor, from
poison, v Y
He never heard a sound all night
and when be got up in the morning
he told the clerk that he was sure
the man waa dead They passed the
room and listened but could bear no
noise, and it was decided to look over
the transom to see if .the j man was
dead. It is not a pleasing thing to
look over transom into a man's
roomr not knowing whether your eye
will fall on a corpse or a live man
with a revolver - pointed at you, so
nobody seemed i to; yearn to be the
first to climb the stepladder. Final
ly it was decided to throw a cat over
the transom, on to, the bed, and if they
d.d not bear any noise it would be
ceitain that the man was dead, and
the could go on. with the I funeral.
A cat waa procured, and, the porter,
wno knew just where the, bed was
located, waa detailed ' to toss the cat
over.-. J -
I He went ap the ladder a few steps,
not enough to look over, because be
was not prepared to look auddet ly
upon a corpse, and taking the cat in
both bands, by the legs, 'he "gently
tossed her. or him, as the case might

- Half a " dozen railroad 'rneii J '
.Were
tending by the TJnioh deb6V lunch
counter the other night, waiting for a
train, drinkiag coffee and telling sto
ries about their experiences in rail
roading An eagineer Was making
darnel tracks in a meab pie; anal be
tween swallows was entertaining the
boys about a fast run he' made once '
between,. Milwaukee and La Crosse,
'when the "old man" was in a hurry
to get up there to see about a bridge
that was being built there. As be
was describing bow the engine and
two cars fairly blistered the rails be
tween Portage and Camp Douglass,
a frightened looking man stepped up
and asked for a cup of coffee and
some doughcuts, and while he wa
soaking a dougnut in coffee, he said
they didn't know, anything about fast
running unless they had been on the
Pennsylvania road. The man asked
him what he knew about fast running
andjie turned out some eoffeo in a
saacer, blew on it to cool it, swallow-
ed it and said: , ' . Y , . ; Y
i "Well, I just got in here from the
East, and I have witnessed railroad
ing that knocks the socks off of any
thing that ever was. We started
from Jersey City one night at 8 o
clock, . and up this side of Phjiiadel
phia there was a wreck ahead of ua,
and we side-tracked for six hours, and
whin the track was clear we started.
Well sir- we flew,, fairly flevs -Wef
didn't realize in the car, that we weie
going fast by any jar, for it v as just "i j
as smooth as a pair of Bkatss on ice,
but if a man went out on the' platform
he could not breathe. The nigger
started to bring a lunch, from the ho
tel car into the car I was in, , and
while I he crossed the platform the
coffee froz? as stiff as ice cream and a 1
man eat it with a spoon. The nigger,
was afraid logo back into the car '
and waited till the train stopped at a
coal place. The conductor told me
the train was going faster than a bul
let, and that the engineer often' shot -
his revolver up the track ahead, and
the engine would overtake the ballet J
and fatten it against the smokestack.: '
Did you ever see a passenger train '
jump right over a freight train when
both were in motion?" 'asked the
doughnut man as he filled his -empty
coffee cup up with milk.
"Oh, what are you giving us I said
the engineer, as he loosened the
leather belt arOund his greasy over- :
alla, and looked at the man with dis
gust. - . ', . . - .
"Well, vou don t nave to believe it
if you doa't want to, but I pledge
you my word our train jumped right
over a freight train ahead of us. . .We
came up to it on a -straight track, ,
and our engineer signalled to the
the freight engineer to slow up a
little,' and the conductor told us . to.
keep our seats. We had seen the
freight train ahead on the curve, 1
and wondered why our train did not
stop. When the conductor told us
keep eur feeats I asked him what was
the matter, and be said we were . go
ing to jump a freight, and if we mov
ed around we would jar the cars ; so '
they wouldn't be liable to hit the
track ah-jvl when wa, caute. down.
Just then I could feel the train go
into the air, and hear the wheels turn
withoat any track under tbem and in
less than ten seconds we began to
descend, and I could hear the wheels
on the track agaia, and' I looked
back and the freight eogineer was. -
waving his hat at ut. '-'Why,: there
was no more jar than there is in this '
room now. ut course tliey woulda
attempt to jump a fre'ght train on a .
curve or ii a tunr.eL" and he man
scratched, a match on his pants and
lit a cigar stump he had been keeping.
