Youth's Companion. I Once, not very long ago, little Tommy Tucker cried because be couldn't have a whole mince pie and a big piece of. cheese for his supj-er. "Jack Horner did," he pouted. "Then Jack had the stomach-ache afterwards," said Mamma Tucker. "You'd have to take cartor oil. Tommy. How would you like that." Hut Tommy didn't have to take the castor oil, because he didn't have the pie; and because he didn't have the pie he got up in his high-chair behind the door aud cried as loud as be could cry. Wasn't be a foolish boy? because crying wouldn't help things a bit, you know. After awhile Tommy began to understand that; so he stopped crying and began to think, with bis lips pouted out and a scowl on Li3 face; and he' thought he would go away and stay so that Mamma Tucker would think he was lost; and then she would feel, oh, dreadfully; and the next thing would be a mince pie for his supper. "I'll go up to Uncle Pan's," said Tommy; but then Le thought they would find him there, first thing. Besides it was cold and stormy. "I'll go down cellar and hide in the brick closet," said Tommy, then; and there was just where he did go, creeping down the stairs as easy as a mouse. lie didn't believe anybody could hear him; but somebody did. homebody saw him, too. It was Pap pa Tucker, who was stopping a leak in the cistern. It was very dark in the brick closet ; because there wasn't cny way for the light to get in when Tommy had shut the little door behind him. The brick closet was made in one of the three great chimneys, under the parlor fire-place. Sometimes pies and cakes were kept there; but the pies and cakes and Tommy didn't happen in the closet at the same time. That was a trial, but Tommy didn't have a great while to think about it. The fioor ot the closet was hard, but Tommy was sleepy it was past his bed-time and while he was wondering why Mamma Tucker didn't come to find him, he went fast asleep. I will tell you the reason Tommy Tucker s mamma didn't wring her hands and go looking cp stairs and down stairs for her little boy. when she found he wasn't in his highchair behind the door. It was because Papa Tucker had seen Tommy and heard him; and knew just where he was. "We'll have to teach him a little lesson," said Tapa Tucker. So he didn't go to bed when everybody else did, but locked the cellar door and sat down before the fire to read, right over Tommy's poor little sleepy head. P-y-and-by Tommy waked ud. At first he couldn't think where he wa3, but pretty soon he remembered. Poor little Tommy Tucker! He was eo hungry he didn't know what to do because he hadn't had his supper, yon know; and he ached dreadfully, the floor was so hard. But the floor didn't seem so hard to Tommy a.s the thought that hii mamma hadn't tried to find him nobody had tried to fir. J him. And they had all eone to bed. and left him alone; he knew they had gone to bed everything was so Still. Tommy becan to cry again. "Oh dear, dear nel he wailed. ''I wish I didü't be down here I do!" BuJ wishing, all alone, doesn't do any more good than crying; and maybe Tommy wouldn't hare done anything but wish, if he hadn't just at that moment heard a little rustle somewhere around, anyway he thought be did; and a rustle in a cellar where there isn't anything to rustle, you know, is a dreadful thing. So Tommy Tucker thought. "Oh dear," he cried a?ain; and he pushed open the closet door and went out and felt afonff in the dark to the cellar stairs, and he went up the cellar stairs and tried to open the door, which was locked, as I have already told you. How Tommy screamed when he found he couldn't get out, himself. "J'apra! mamma! Ü mamma!" And, of cours. then pappa Tucker came in haste to unlock the door.

""Why, Tommy," said he, "how came you here?"

"I I was down in the brick closet," said Tommy, with a sob; "and I was Beared oi Me scared. And I want A piece of bread and butter, papa, a big large piece." And so that's what Tommy Tucker had for his supper though his nane wasn't really Tommy Tucker. A. C. Object Lesson. Captain Pratt, superintendent of the Indiana school at Carlisle, brought oa the platform, at the recent New York meeting in behalf of the Indians, some articles made Ij the students, for the purpose, he said, of giving the audience an object lesson showing what the Indians can do when educated and civilized. These articles embrace a jacket, a pair of trousers, a portion of a harness, tin vessels, horse shoes, etc "We defy any school in this country," said Captain Pratt, "to show such successful industrial edncation as Carlisle exhibits in its briet existence of six years. We have made all our own clothing, for instance. It don't matter where the Indians come from. About the best workmen we have are these 'horrid Apaches as they are called." Captain Pratt read a list of the articles m3de by the students which embraced large quantities of clcthin?, boots and shoes, harness, andothvr implements of general utility. He told how failing to induce congress to purchase a farm for his Indian students he borrowed money and bought a farm himself. It proved a highly successful experiment. A lady recently sent him $5,000 and the farm was paid for. He read reports from teachers showing great proficiency among some of the students in the ordinary branches of education. He held that Carlisle had demonstrated that the Indians can be educated mentally and industrially. The Indians would never learn how to protect themselves from being cheated by the white men while they were kept in an isolated condition. He had a printing press and his students published a small paper in which they printed many of the speeches in congress affecting the Indian question, with comments of their own. They also had a debating club. The Grant Hoys. I heard an amusing story a day or two ago about the Grant boys, when they were children at Calena. The family lived in a plain, two-story brick house, on High street, which, since the General lirst began to achieve greatness, has been an object of interest to tourists and strangers visiting this city. Their nearest and most intimate neighbors were the family of A. M. Haines. The Haines' and the Grant children were fast friends during the residence of the latter on High street. The boys of each family had a game rooster, and were wont to pit the fowls against each other whenever favorable opportunity presented itself. The Grant rooster was named "General Grant," and was a very gamey bird, usually coming out first best in the contests. The Haines fowl was christened "Jeff Davis," not, nowever, from any love the young owners entertained for its traitorous namesake. On one occasion the two birds were set to fighting, and in the battle the Haines fowl whipped ' (Jenoral Grant" badly, and drove him from the field. The contest between these two chiefs of the roost took place at a time when Grant and Pemberton were pitted against each other at Vicksburg. and when it began to look as though the former would have to give up the idea of capturing the city. News was brought to Mrs. Grant almost hourly from the seat of war, and that lady, as a matter of course, was very anxious about the result, although she knew that soomr or later "l lysa" would get there. A messenger had just left the house, after handing Mrs. Grant a somewhat discouraging dispatch, when in rushed her boys, Fred and Buck, shouting indignantly. "Mother, 'General Grant' has been licked!" "I guess not, my children," said the mother coolly, who at first gravely imagined that some later intelligence than that she had received had come from the front. "Yes, he has," said Fred indignantly; "'Jeff Davis' licked him just now, behind Mr. Haines' barn, and if that bird don't go into the pot it will be because I can't catch it to wring its neck." "General Grant," it is related, suffered an ignominious death that night, and next day iurnisned a meal lor the lamiiy." A Visit To Shakespeare's School. (St. Nicholas. In 112, Thomas JolyfFe, a priest, a native of Stratford, and a member of the Guild, gave certain lands and tenements to the Brotherhood of the Holy Cross, to maintain a priest fit to teach grammar freely to all scholars. There is very little doubt that here, in his boyhood, Shakespeare conned his tasks. The antique appearance of the schoolroom i9 to a great extent gone, for in the lapse of time many of the old, characteristic features have passed away. Yet the room still looks hoary and venerable, and impressed me deeply. At the invitation of the Head Master, I listened for a few minutes to the recitations in Greek of a class of stout and sturdy English boys. The boys m Shakespeare's school when I visited it were lively fellows, full of fun, brimming over with spirits, and somewhat given to skylarking when the master's back was turned. Poor man! he seemed to have a rather hard time of it, in his endeavor to maintain a conversation with me, and at the same time restrain the exuberant feelings of his pupils. Bow Oliver Wendell Holmes Spent Sunday and the Derby Day. London World. "When Oliver Wendell Holmes was with us half a century ago Sabbatarianism was a burning question. He will now have some practical illustrations of our progress. On Sunday evening he was at Lord and Lady Ilothschild's smart reception in Piccadilly to meet the Prince and Princess of Wales, while quite half society was laughing at M. Fevre's drawing room play at Mme. Waddington's, and all America was enjoying Mr. Boughton's hospitality at "West House," Notting Hill. It is certainly time that the millions should have their museums and picture galleries. Dr. Oliver Wendell Homes' Derby Day will be a memorable one in the annals of lionizin?. At noon Mr. Phelps took him to Marlborough House, where the Prince of Wales chatted to him for some time about America end the Americans, and invited him to join the royal party going to Epsom. In the train he made the acquaintance of the Princess of Wales and her children, lunched in the "cars," and saw all the sights of the great carnival under the auspices of H. It. H. bimfelf. He returned to dine with Mr. Phelps, in Ixiwndes square, to meet LaJy Her schell, Lady Ilosebery, Mr. Robert Browning, and a small party. He afterward went on to Mrs. Cyril Flower's and Lady Rothschild's, but he was too tired to reach Dover House. Kditor Heid at Home. Whitelaw Reid, of the New York Tribune. is now, with his wife and son, at his home ace near Le larvule, O., visiting his mother. Ye understand that he is about to recon struct and improve the hoHse in which he was born. It has in front of it one of the finest laws in Ohio fine, silky and thick the growth of 10O years. Mrs. Ueid, his mother, is a fine, well preserved lady of very excellent qualities and pleasing manners, and still in fair health, although at an advanced age. Since writing the foregoing we are glad to learn that Mr. Reid will rebuild the house with the purpose of returning to his old home and birthplace to become again a resident and citizen of Ohio. SOU Not Called lor. It seems strange that it Is necessary to persuade men that yeu can cure their diseases by o tiering a premium to the man who fails to receive benefit. And yet Dr. Sage undoubtedly cured thousands of cases of obstinate catarrh with his "Catarrh Remedy," who would never have applied to him if it had not been for his offer ot the above sum for an incurable case.

Calculated to Throw Discredit I'pon a Tradition of the Colored Kace, I Pittsburg Dispatch.l "My body-snatching experience," said an old resident of McKeesportto a reporter, as his eyes twinkled over the recollection of the affair long ago relegated to the storehouse of his memory, "I have never had any body-snatching experience of my own, but if you give me a solemn promise not to reveal the identity of the doctors, nor ot your informant, I will tell you of a peculiar experience which some of my particular friends, who were then entering upon the study of medicine, had many years ago. The actors In that week's work are limited In number, and to-day are scattered far and wide over the broad surface of the earth, yet I venture to say that not one of them has since had an experience which will compare la its extremeties of horror and ludicrousness with this body-snatching up the Yough Biver." The old gentleman thereupon settled himself in his arm-chair, and the story as it fell from his lips is substantially as related below: "The slanting rays of the afternoon sun, as they dance through the long stretches of forest which adorn the highlands marking the courte of the dare-devil Yough can pierce with difficulty a bushy thicket which runs the course of a great cleft in the hills a few miles above McKeesport. The winds. sweeping down through the gorge, sing a sad requiepYer a lonely grave flnajpg ,h3

tangled undergrowth. No costly shaft rears its head over the humble tomb, and the wild flowers scatter their petals above the senseless dust as a sole memorial of the clay long since mingled witn its mother earth. In this lonely ravine lies buried a gigantic negro, who, in his life, measured almost seven feet in the air. Many years ago, yet within the recollection of several men now in the prime of life, this negro, who was noted along the river for his Bi'ze and strength, laid down the shovel and the hoe for the last time, and was laid to rest among his ancestors, in a small cemetery devoted to the exclusive use of the sable population, which was sparsely settled along the river earning a precarious living. "One dark night mysterious lights were seen moving about the graveyard, and several colored men, belated and trudging througn the darkness, averred to their dying day that the spirits of ebony angels were holding high carnival in the cemetery. The burden of proof was cheerfully carried by these men, and the lecend of that night's reveling is to-day enrolled among the traditions of the colored race of the Yough recion. The lights were certainly in the cemetery, and four men, massed and artistically arrayed lor presenting as horrible appearance as possible to any interlopers, with pick and shovel soon had the lantern's rays shining upon the lid of the ccilin which inclosed the big darkey. The huge corpse was take.i from its quiet little house, hoisted into the starlight, and then hurried into a wagon, while the grave was refilled and rounded so nicely that there were no visible signs of the nocturnal visit. The body was taken to a house near the river bank and hidden there in the cellar. The body-snatchers were horrified next ruorning to find that there were very fragrant evidences of their guilt in the air. It was the first experience of these neophytes in the business, and at a private symposium held this afternoon, they decided that a safe deliverance out tf present dilhcuitus would be ample reward for the taking of a total abstinence pledge from such work forever afte r. The darkey was buried deeply in the cellar that night and the greater the amount of the earth piled above him the more mephitic became the atmosphere. On the Sunday following, the country side went to a great camp meeting, which was an event to which every one looked forward with happy anticipations. The arch conspirators saw their friends and neighbors leave and then seized their veritable black elephant and put him him in a great kettle to secure the magnillicent skeleton by boiling the flesh from the bones. The kettle was too small or the coon was too larce, and lor four or live hours the young students were in an agony of fear aüd desperation. Finally they found the task too great for their limited resources. The atmosphere for a half mile around the latest style of a witches' caldron took an aroma of a glue factory tint, and a council of war it was decided to replant the remains in the secluded spot I have described. Not until the last spadeful of ground was thrown upon the parboiled darkey and all the traces obliterated, did the body-snatcherj feel free to draw an easy breath. From that day until this the darkey has rested undisturbed, and the rippling waters of the river roll and glitter in the sunlight, the thrush whistles in the thicket, and the lone tomb is left to the companionship of nature, with no fear of further disturbance."

FIRST MEETING GROVER CLEVELAND.

Ilia Appearance In Syracuse LookiBg After the Nomination for Governor. INew York Sun. Mamaeoxeck, June 11. We first met Grover Cleveland on the night of September 20, lf?2. We were conversing with a friend in the barroom of the Vanderbilt House, in Syracuse. The city was ciowded, the weather was warm, and the air was filled with the music of brass bands and the eloquence of overheated political partisans. It was the eve of a Democratic State Convention. The most notable candidates for Governor at the time were lioswell P. Flower and General Henry W. Slocum. A noisy squad of Albany politicians were bcomirj? Erastns Corning and a smaller but equally noisy set from along the Hudson River were howling for Hofiifr A. Nelson. At times an intoxicated cnunty Democrat from New York City would cheer for Kdward Cooper. Tammany's cohorts were there, UDder the leadership of John Kelly, fighting for representation in the convention, and the turmoil was something terrible. While we were stewing in the brilliantly lighted and overcrowded bar-room, and almost deafened by the noise, a tall, handsome and well-dressed man, with black eyes, white teeth and a small inky moustache, sauntered in and slapped us on the shoulder. He was Jack Wiley, a shrewd Buffalo politician and a successful lobbyist In seductive tones he greeted us and induced us to light a fragrant cigar. "There." he taid, in an off-hand way, as he threw away the half-burned match, "your cigar is lighted. Now, I want you to go and drink with the ne.t Governor of the state. He's a bummer. We've brought him here from LutValo to put him on exhibition. Come and look him over. I tell you he's going to te a winner." "Who i3 he?" my friend asked. "Grover Cleveland." Jack replied. "He's Mayor of Buffalo, and he's one of U5. Wait till you size him up." Old Sol Scheu turned up just then. He seconded Jack's appeal so strongly and was so ardent in his praise of the new candidate that we conduced to go over and see what they had. They talked about it all the way, and reminded us of a couple of drummers descanting on the merits of their wares. The streets, the hotels, and three-quarters cf the politicians were full. Scheu and Wiley piloted us over to the Globe, a stuffy hotel near the dopot. Up two Mights of stairs we went to the third story, where we were ushered into a small bedroom above the dining room. It contained abed, an easy chair, and a washtub tilled with ice and whisky bottles. A stout man with a fat neck and projecting pray eyes stood in front of the washtub with his hands behind his back. He wore a black frock coat, a low-cut black waist coat, and black trousers. An oldfashioned standup collar was held in place by a black cravat, tied so low that you could see the button of his shirt. The sweat stcod in beads on his brow. His corporation was by no means so protuberant as it has since become. It was evident that he was awaiting the arrival of any visitor that might be brought up. The door of an adjoining apartment was wide open, and several men with their hats on sat upon a bed smoking. Jack Wiley made the presentation with easy grace. "Mr. Mayor, he said, "these are my friends, Bichard lloe and John Hoe of New York. They're good men, and they've come up to look over the next) iovernor." Mayor Cleveland bowed, shook hand, aad smiled. "Gentlemen," he replied, "you know my friend Wiley. He's a good fellow, but he's liable to be carried away by enthusiasm. I'm happy to meet you. Won't you have a drink?" Old Sol Scheu stood near by, fanning his red and perspiring face with a chip hat. He was about to make a break for the wash tub when we asked the Mayor whether he really thought he stood any show for the nomination. Old Sol held his mouth open to aid his ears in trying to catch the answer. "Well, I don't know as much about it as my friends do," Mr. Cleveland said. "You see, I'm in their hands," indicating Wiley and Scheu by a motion of his head. 'I take their advice. They thought it was policy for me to come on and let people look at me, and you see I am here. I've been here since 2 o'clock this afternoon. Two or three car loads of friends came along with us." "Yes, and thev're all out on the warpath," broke in Jack Wiley trinmphantly. The Mayor smiled. "I believe they they're all at work," he continued. "Wiley tells me that things are blossoming, and that the prospect is very encouraging. Gentlemen, won't you have a drink?" " Old Sol Scheu was again about to make a break for the washtub, when his intention was diverted by another question put to the Mayor. "But if you get the nomination for Governor," we said, "the people will want to know something about you. They have never heard of you, and they will be put to it to find out who you are?" Here old Sol Scheu exploded, "Dot vas de reason he vas going to win," he said, in his hearty Dutch dialect; "'cause nopody knows him, und dose vat don't know him likes him. Dot vas de troubles mid you Ny York bolidicians. Eferypody knows 'em, und de more they knows 'em de more they don't like 'em." Old Sol stopped there to mop his face. Mayor Cleveland laughed, and then ran his band into his coat pocket and drew out some small printed circulars. "My friends are spreading my fame," he said.- "They are wide awake. These circulars have been printed, and they are going to distribute them over the State. They will give the people full information." He gave us two of the circulars. They had been printed in the office of the Buffalo Courier. They told the story of Cleveland's parentage, birthplace and religious training, and wound up with a glowing account of his career in Buffalo. The Mayor also handed us a wood engraving of himself, which he took from a package on the bedspread. It gave a front view of his face and bust, and it was about six inches by four. A vast number of these engravings and circulars were put in circulation in Syracuse within the next twenty-four hours. After further conversation on the political prospect, the Mayor was congratulated on his fine personal appearance. "Your head, sir, reminds me strongly of the head of General Dan Butterfield," said one of the visitors. "But the Mayor is bodied more like Stephen A. Douglas," observed the other. "Thank you for compliment," Mr. Cleveland responded, with dilating eyes and an unaffected smile. "And now what will you have to drink, gentlemen?" He turned and bent over the washtub, preparatory to drawing a bottle from its nest of cracked ice. Jack Wiley, however, was on the qui vive. He restrained the Mayor, while old Sol Scheu drew himself into Ifne and awaited developments. "Not that bottle, Mr. Mayor," said Jack, putting up his left hand, "but this one. Give 'em the old whisky. It's the best in Buffalo," he added, turning to his guest, as he drew out a bottle and the ice rattled in the tub. "It's ten years oil, and pure rye. I know it, for I have tried it, and so has the Mayor, and we're both good judges." Five glasses were produced, and we all took some of Wiley's and the Mayor's rare old whisky. We drank to the Mayor's health and to his promotion. His Honor put very little water into his, and after the drink disappeared smacked his lips with evident gratification, t There was neither wine nor appollinaris' in the tub nothing but liquor, but plenty of that. As we finished our drinks Mr. Cleveland again stepped to the bed and took from it a box of cigars. They were of the same brand as those given us earlier in the evening by Jack Wiley. Nobody interrupted our conversation. It was evident that we were in at the beginning of the boom, and that Jack and old Sol Sheu were anxious to get out and rush the work. An hour later 5fX) Buffalonians were whooping things, and a steady stream of visitors poured in upon hi? JJoDor the Älayor, It Jasted all the next

lsy, when be ran back to Buffalo leaving Wiley and Sheu on the field. That evening as we were about to depart one cf us chaffed the Mayor on his intimacy with Jack Wiley, and expressed a desire to know "where Wiley would come in" if Mr. Cleveland was nominated and elected. "He'll come in on the outside, and nowhere else," the Mayor said. "In other words, he'll get left," Jack said, and all laughed. It was said as a joke, but it proved true. Jack was left. Though he was a most effective agent in securing the prize for Cleveland, he cot not the slightest consideration after it was lover. It is also a fact that he turned up in Chicago two years later, rigtiting Cleveland's nomination for the Presidency tooth and toe nail. How he stands now we are not informed. Besides, he Bailed for Europe about a month ago. A Categorical Witness. Detroit Free Tress. "Do you know the witness well?" asked the lawyer. "Never knew him sick," replied the witness. "No levity," said the lawyer, sternly. "Now, sir, did you ever see the prisoner at the bar?" "Had man j a drink with him at the bar." "AESwer my question, sir," yelled the lawyer. "How long have you known the prisoner?" 'From two fact up to five feet ten inches." "Will the Court make the?" "I have, your Honor," said the witness, anticipating the lawyer; "I have answered the question. I knowed the prisoner when he was a boy two feet long and a man five feet ten " The lawyer arose, placed both hands on the table in front of him, spread his legs ajart, leaned over the table, and said : "Will you tell the Court what you know about this case?" "That ain't his name." "What ain't his name?" "Case." "Who said it was?" "You did. You wanted to know what I knew about this Case his name is Smith." "Your Honor," howled the lawyer, plucking his beard out by the roots, "will you make this man answer?" "Witness, you must answer the questions put to you," said the Judge. ' Land o' Goshen, your Honor, hain't I bin doin' it? Let the counsel fire away, I'm rtady." "Then," said the lawyer, "don't you beat about the bush any more. You and this prisoner have been friends?" "Never!" "What! Wasn't you summoned here as a friend of his?" "No, sir; I was summoned here as a Presbyterian. Neither of us was ever Friends; no Quaker about him." "Stand down!" yelled the lawyer, in deep disgust. "Hey?" "Stand down." " 'an't do it. I'll sit down or stand up " "Usher, remove that man from the box." Witness retires, muttering. "Well, if he ain't the thick-headedest lawyer I ever laid eyes on!"

Sirs. Cleveland's Affability. I Philadelphia Timcs.l One of the great ourdens of Washington entertainments is the amount of physical labor and endurance they entail. On this first occasion Mrs-JClevelandshowed herself equal to every possible emergency. While tbe numbers in attendance were placed at 12,000, the opinion of the experienced ushers of the Mansion is that without extravagance not less than G.OUO to 7,000 persons passed through the audience parlor between the hours of f p. m. and 1 a. m. Each of these was greeted with a gentle tip of the bride's ringers in his or her extended hand. Although the customary hour of closing is 11 o'clock, Mrs. Cleveland insisted upon remaining until the very last had passed, so that none should go away disappointed. Saved by a Dog. Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer. Thursday afternoon, while a pleasure warty were enjoying themselves in bathing at Pablo Beach, one of their number, Miss Mamie Shaw, daughter of Captain William A. Shaw, of Jacksonville, Fla., was thrown from off her feet by a monster breaker. Her screams attracted the attention of every one as she rolled in the surf. Suddenly, like a flash, a large black Newfoundland dog, owned by John Hammant, of Hotel Pablo, came bounding down the bank, and springing into the breakers caught Miss Shaw by her clothes and brought her to shore. Black, as the dog is named, has become a great favorite by his brave, humanlike act, and rightly deserves a new collar.
