A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE

AN OLD TIMS CIRCUS. Charles Dennis la InL Journal. "Talking about a crowd," said tbe grizzled veteran, aa, pausing, bis band went down into tbe tab and emerged with a glass of pink lemonade lor a 'sweating student of zoology "talking about a crowd. This bere ain't a marker to tbe crowd I see once in Madison. "Yea, Madison, Indiana. We struck ber sin *49, in August. In tbem days we 'didn't travel by railroad. Tbe show I WM witb was a menagerie—Raymond «k you ve heard of old was the boss he was witb us. As I Baid, it was a menagerie, and no circus. We joat traveled to ketcb Christians, pious JsuslaeMs. In tbem times one show a •day was all we gave, and that in tbe day time. usually at 2 o'clock in tbe afternoon. Tbe tent held 10,000 people. At 6 o'clock in tbe evening, or after tbe •bow was over, tbe canvasmen would tako down tbe rag and bustle on to tbe next stopping place, leaving tbe animals to follow. Tbe animals, and so pn, would strike a town, say at 10 o'clock in the morning, when tbe parade would .come off and tbe show would be at 2 o'clock in tbe afternoon. No night performance. "As I was saying, we were going to Madison. Before we got there a lot of toanvasmen came back to tell us to hurry 'up, the town waa full ot people, and 'we'd have to show In the forenoon and afternoon. We got Into Madison, and tbe tent filled up in no time—while there were thousands outside cursing and cry In because they could not get in. Every man loose about tbe tents climbed upon wagons and yelled and pleaded with tbe people not to buy any more tickets to wait until 2 o'clock, when another show would be given. At 2 o'clock tbe show was filled up as before, and tbe same bowling, surging mass was there on the outside as beiore. -We begged 'em with tears in our eyes not to buy any more tickets—told 'em they were only throwing their money away that we'd give a show at night. Th*tt iii»fbt tbe same old crowd over again. Tbe tent on tbe outside looked like a sack of corn in tbe ear.

Can't tell you how many men we had dishing it out. Had a line of darkies reaching down to tbe river, 300 yard* away, carrying water for lemonade. Fast aa they'd wear out we'd put ou fresh men.

WHERE THE JOKE WAX.

HOW A PA I It OF DEAD BEATS TOUCHED ALL HEARTS ON THE TRAIN.

Detroit Free Pros*-

On the Mlohlgan Central train, the other day, was a passenger who bad lost hia right arm. Soon after tbe train pulled out he began talking to those around him In regard to the political candidates, claiming to have served.,under both. This led some one to ask him bow he lost his arm, and be replied: "It was down In the Wilderness. We were charging tbe enemy's line, A bul letatruckmy arm, crushing the bone, and 2 tail unoonscious. When was restored to consciousness, I was in the bands of tbe confederates. Indeed a aoldier was going through my pockets When he discovered that I waa alive he -vras about to bayonet me, but a corporal sprang forward, knocked the wretoh •down and saved my life."

Wblle be was telling this a man with his baft arm gone had risen from bis seat and came nearer, and as tbe other fin ished be bent forward and said: "I am that very corporal! I remember ihe Incident as If It happened only yes

Tkey then embraced some more and sssmed to weep. One passenger fished up half a dollar and passed his bat, and In five minutes a collection amounting to 93.50 was divided between them. Everybody said it was a shame, and an old man seemed willing to adopt them both tf they would go to Illinois. But ther didn't they got off at Dearborn, ana it was a quarter of an hour after before a commercial drummer dared to make tbe statement that both chapto lived ih Detroit, both loet their arms by aooktent, and that they had played the •am game over and over again on every railroad in the Bute.

In a Dee Moines street car tbe other a near sighted man waa sitting near the fare box reading a newspaper, when a lady passed up tbe alale and accidentally dropped her handkerchief in the lap of tbe near sighted man aa she paid her tare. She did not notice her loet, and after she had taken her aeat a gentleman a it ting opposite tbe near sighted person touched htm with hia.case to call hi* attention to the handkerchief. Tbe near sighted man looked down, aaw the white handkerchief in hia lap, and Immediately covered it up with hia paper, biuehlugaa be did so.

A CONTRAST. Cln. Saturday Night.

About a dozeu years ago tbe appear' ance of a certain man on tbe streets of Cincinnati waa the signal for a great crowd to collect and follow him wherever be went. If be entered a saloon the place would be packed immediately witb a throng of tbe curious. If he got into a carriage and drove away, a rabble followed it aa long as their legs would allow. The papers printed columns upon columns about his size, weight, personal appearance manner of living and conversation, together with all tbe scraps of personal history and remin iscence that busy and imaginative reporters could possibly rake together, At an early hour one morning two im mense trains, loaded with thousands of men, drew out from one of our depots, bound for some place where tbfs man was expected to put in aa appearance. And he was there, a big burly man, witb hairy chest and arms like Hercules' And tbe crowd watched and shouted while witb his fiste he beat into a sensleas and bleeding mass the face of another man who was there to meet him. And when it was over and tbe atricken gladiator was left on tbe ground, with but a friend or two to attended him, tbe crowd ruahed back to tbe city almost bearing in their arms tbe conqueror, and there were multitudes here who received him like a hero returned from a great and successful war, and gave him an ovation. Tbe spirit tbat bound the vanquished to the chariot wheels of the vanquished seemed to possess tbem.

A few days ago a couple of policemen found a man Tying about the Public Landing, haggard and with grizzled hair, but with tbe emaciated form of a once powerful man, and they arrested him as a "suspicious character" and took him to tbe police station. He said he followed tbe river for a livelihood, but was aick and out of work. Aa he had done nothing to warrant hia arrest he was released and went his way. And this broken, forlorn creature was the man who created tbe sensation in Cin cinuati above recorded, a dozen years ago. His aame is Mike McCoole.

BROUGHT TO TIME.

HOW AN IOWA FATHER FACILITATES BUSINESS.

St. Louis Republic^.

There la no foolishness about some of tbe fathers of Dubuque county, Iowa, who have marriageable daughters, and thoy know how to precipitate business wben tbe fruit Is ripe for picking, and baugs, wasting its nweetness, when it should be plucked. Matters were brought to a climax with a rush at certain farmer's residence in Vernon township, recently. A young tiller of the soil had for many months been pay ing most assiduous attentions to one of his daughters bat he was such a bashful, modest chap, never having been much in the company of girls, except this one, tbat be bad never been able to raise bis courage sufficiently to pop the question

He had gone to the house in which the lady lived at least on twenty differ ent occasions, resolved to know his fate, but when ushered into tbe presence of tbe fair one, in whose keeping he bad placed bis heart, hia courage would iova riably 'go baok on him,' and be would return to bis lonely room in greater su9 pense than before. Upon tbe evening in question he had determined tbat come what would, be would tell his Mary tbat he loved her. He would ouce for all decide the matter, but, as upon each former occasion, he could not get the proposal further than his throat. There it stuck, aud he determined to gulp it down and give up tbe seige, when tho door opened and in walked the girl's lather, who advanced to where they were sitting, and thus addressed them: 'I came out to put a stop to this fool ishness. It ain't courtin' expenses I'm lookln' at, for coal is cheap aud wood can be had for tbe haulln', but I'm sick and tired of thia billln' and cooln' like a pair of sick doves, keepiu' me awake of nights, and it's got to be stopped right here. Do yon love John Henry well enough to marry him?' 'Why, father, I—I—you must—' 'Stop tbat foollshinV yelled the old man. 'Answer yes or no, and quick, too. It's got to be settled now or never.' 'Well—but father, don't you know—if you'll only wait, and—' 'Dry iip answer yes or no. SpeakI' roared the old gent. 'Well, then, yes! There, now,' and Mary again bid her face. 'That's buntnem that's the way to talk. Now, John, look up here, or I'll shake you all to pieces. Do you want that gal of mine tor a wife? Speak out like a man.' 'Why, Mr.-—.ain't this rather a—I mean can't you—' 'Speak it out, or out of this house you'll go head foremost. I won't wait a minute longer. There's tbe gal, and there ain't a likelier gal in the State, an' you just heard ber say tbat she wanted you. Now, John, I won't stand a bit of foolin'. Once for all, yes or no?' 'Well, yes, air. I have been presumptuous enough to hope that I—' 'Oh, stop yoar soft talk the thing is settled now. Yoa two fools would have been six month* at the job that 1 have done In five minutee. I never aaw each foolin' aa there is among young people nowadays. Alnt like when I was young—an' now good*night. Yoa can talk the thing over, an' yon .an' me, John, Ml go ap town aa' get the Heenee to-morrow. Soon be time to get to plowing no time for love making then. Good-night, good-night I hope I wasn't too rough, rat I was determined to fix the thing one way or t'other,' and the old man went back to bed.

Now tbat the ice was broken tbe yonng people laid all their plana for the future, and John felt lost a little bad at tbe oomfort he bad lost, when Mary looked ap at him shyly, and said. 'Thia would bave been all right months ago, John, if yon hadn't been so akeery. I koowed all tbe time that yon wanted to ask me. bat it weent my plaoe to say anything yon know.'

LITTLE FOLKS.

A little four year old was at one of oar photograph s'.udioe having ber photo taken. Toe arUatsaid: **You must keep your mouth shot, my dear, and yoar eyee open," as the little one showed a decided inclination to open ber month and (dose her eyee. Bat on being instructed, ehe braced up and asked: "Now, what shall 1 do with my noee?"

Fatbeiwbo is alwaya trying toteeoh his son how to set white at the table}— Well, John, yon see that when I have finished eating I always leave tbe table. John—Yes, sir, and that Is about all yoa do leave. "Dont yoa want to be my wife?" asid a small bof to a smaller girt with some hesitation, bat with aoertain firm* nessoftone^be replied, "Yes, I would." "Then," continued the boy. as be seated himself on tbe gnus and lifted up his foot, "yon may btgln by palling off my boots.*7

COMING BACK.

It fills my heart with wild unrest Where yondercold, white marbles t-lcam, She still must slumber God knows best

Bat this I know, that those who say Our best beloved would find no placo, Have never hungered, every day.

The little figure was barefooted, and tbe one calico garment rent and faded and torn. •No, I don't want any to-day, sissy," said tbe Texan. "Please, mister, won't you buy my matches with a second pull at the coat.

Tbe msn tamed again, impatiently, and glanced at the little one then, as if ashamed, and, with a furtive glance around as If to see if be was unobserved, put his fingers In bis vest poeket, ana tbe next Instant a bright half dollar learned in tbe little grimy fingers,

Vith a half sigh the big hearted fellow said, half to himself. "Poor little cuss." "Please, mister, don't you want tbe matches, and I hain't got no change?" "Ob, tbe devil, no keep tbe change arid matches, too."

Holding tbe precious ooin in both bands tbe little match girl vanished like a shadow through the front door, and tbe Texan, with mattered "what a fool I am." followed.

Arouod tbe oorner and down Sixth street pattered tbe little naked feet, unoonscious tbat she was followed, and up one of the streets devoted to small dealers and a perfect nest of pawn shops, Into one of the least clean and imposing of these she darted and whispered some thing to the woman who took a paper parcel out of a drawer and handed it to tbe ohild. Tbe ehlld tore off tbe paper with nervooa fingers, aud there was tbe sole treesure of her hesrt, her only xissession—her doll. Sbe bogged it to ler breast snd kissed it. What Waif •aid between woman and child oould not be beard, bat when tbe little wa a laid the half dollar on tbe counter tbe woman shook her bead and pasbed It back very far toward tbe child, as If ber rssolutloo might not bold out very steadfast. The ehlld looked amazed bat turned to go, hogging ber dolly, and at the door stood the Texan witb a very suspicious moisture upon bis cheek and a big lamp in bis throat. •I've got a litUe girl like yoa st home,' said be. *Oome along and show me where yon live.'

Well, yoa may be sure that the aick mother and the little girl we-e rendered more oomrortable, for an hour afterward she bad the receipt for a month's rent in ber bauds and a doctor's carrisge stood at the door of that tenement boose.

And each Is tbe story tbat was told to the reporter by tbe big-hearted Texan, who Isst night loft tbe Laclede Hotel for bis home upon the wide plaina where range bis broad borned herds.

They say if our beloved dead Should seek the old familiar place. Some stranger would be there instead,

And they would find no welcome face. I can not tell howit mlgbt be In other homes but this

I know.

Could my lost darling come to me, That the would never find it so. Ofttimes the flowers have come and gone,

Ofttlmes the winter winds have blown. The while her peaceful rest went on, And I have learned to live alone Have slowly learned from day to day,

In all lifers tasks to bear my part But whether grave or whether gay, I hide her memory in my heart. Fond, faithful love has blest my way,

And friends are round me true and tried, They bave their place buther's to day Is empty as the day she died, -f' How would I spring with bated breath,

And joy too deep for word or sign, To take my darling home from death, Aud once again to call her mine. ,, I dare not dreun the blissful dream,

Through years and years, for one dear fftfie.

BUT ONE LITTLE HEART MADE GLAD WITH THE PRECIOUS GIFT. it at. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Yesterday a big boned Texan, sometbisg over six feet high, with an enormous broad brimmed hat and a sweeping mustache reaching nearly to bis shoulders, stood at tbe Laclede Hotel ofBco carelessly examining the register. A slight twitching at bis coat skirts was passed by unheeded, but a more vigor ous pull caused him to look around ex pecting to greet a joking friend, or something of the sort. He saw nothing and was turning back to the register leaves again wben bis glftnce fell upon such a wee mite of a girl, whose head was such a short distance lrom tbe floor tbat it was no wonder he had not seen ber. Tbe wild looking face bent down to the little oue and a deep bass voice asked, "What is it, little girl?'' •Ploaso, mister, won't you buy my matches?" came in weak, childish tones, so low that the words could not have been understood bad tbe appeal not been reinforced by the holding up of a box of matches, tbe corners of the paper box all dog eared and miserably soiled.
