Ton bad been at the works for auy years, and become sort of a foreman to a gang. He was a sober and iltbful old fellow and although be bad tgned the book Saturday after Saturday for a long time, I bad never before aotlcod tbat the forefinger of bis right ind w«t missing. ,-Well, massa, I will tell you all about someday. It is along and cruel story, b, I didn know you noticed it, sah, kinder tryed to bide it for it a'most ills me when any one allndes to it, b." And, as the poor fellow took bis reek's wages and shuffled off, great tears lied down his cbeeks. A few days ater, I found Tom on the wharf, sitting the shade of some bales of cotton. The en had finished their dinner, and Tom 'as taking his customary halt-hour'a ast. '•How are you to-day, Tom?" inquired as the old fellow rose to bis feet to

to put my uear Lida in de

'Lookee 'eer, massa,' said I, just as we got to de door ob de jail, 'don't you put my Lida in dere. she ain't done notbin'. Dar's a sick baby in de cabin yonder dat wants a madder's care. Lida ain't stole nothin'. Dat earring's lost somewhere about de house. It will be found agen. Please let ber go.' 'De only answer I got was a crack ocross de face from de whip ob de oberseer, as dey closed tbe iron front door on my poor weeping wife. "Wid my heart a'most broke, and de sting of dat heavy blow on my forrid, I went back to my cabin. I found Miss Flo der wid my poor sick baby in her arms. Together we watched that droop5 little chile, till jes' before midnight angeis came ana whispered 'it was time to go,' de Lord bad called it home. 'Don't stop here no longer Miss Flo,' said I. 'Go home bouey, and leave me wid de dead.'

De dear lady didn't want to go but after a while, weeping and crying, she left me and went off in de darkness toward de big bouse. Den my heart give way, and I cried as if my heart would break, sah. Little Tom woke up, and stretching his arms over to bis dead brother tried to wake him up. •b, dat was too much for me, sab. I fell down on my knees and was gwine to cuss, when I thought it was wicked, sah, for two wrongsaidn't make one right. 'Suddenly tbe thought struck me dat I bad made deiron door of the calaboose, and dat no oder man on earth could open dat door widout a key but me. Wrapping de dead chile up in Lida'ssbawl, and giving it one kiss, I laid it on de bunk. 1 took deoder baby in my arms, rushed over to de forge, picked up a large hammer aad chisel, and in darkness cropt toward de jail. It was on awful cold night, and as I held little Tom close to my breaking heart de team almost froze running down my cbeek-i. But I was Btrong in my purpose, sab, and savage in my despair. After two or three blows on de iron door of de calaboose it iwungopen, and in a very short time I clasped Lida in my arms, once more a free woman.

'Take de chile, honey,' said I. 'We have but two hours between now and daylight and we must make for deriver before de alarm is given.' "'But whar's de oder—whar's little J"?*'* S*W -WA "•Dead, honey,* said 1. '!)ir ehVi gone to clime de golden stair.', "Oh, my Qod! My chile! My little Joe Dead, deed!' cried die poor oreature falling a my feet. 'Oome. come. You want all your strength, Lida, to reach the river before daylight, and to canebrake is more than four miles across.' "After a four hours' tramp along de road we entered a wood, and reached tbe canebrake, through which we had to pass before reaching the river. We could now hear de sound ob de horse following in de distance. "'Heaven help us now, lida!'cried I. •They're after us. Courage, honey—courage!' "Ou, on we struggled and nearer, nearer came de ounds. Dey bad traced us and entered de canebrake in hot pursuit. A few minutes more, and dey was close upon us. 'We must hide now,' said I,' 'and if dey has no dogs wid'em dey will pass by.' "So we plunged into de thiokest ob de brake, lida holding de baby to her breast to prevent his letting our pursuers know our whereabouts by his cry. We waited, holding our breath, while dey searched right and left for us, some of dem coming close to where we was concealed. "Most ob de party—for dere was five or six ob dem—went on but my Cuban massa, who bed dismounted and left his horse at de entrance ob de canebrake, lagged behind searching ebery corner. He suddenly appeared, and widde aid ab his ball's eye lantern he discovered our hiding-place. "One moment more and hef^M have given tbe alarm, and called bscx oe rest ob de perty: but in de twinkling ob an eye I grasped him by de throat and stifled bis cry. Quick as lightning be whipped ont his bowie knife. Holding hitn tight by tbe neck wid one hand, I graspea de knife wid de oder. De sharp blade cut my finger to de bone, bat I choked my massa till be turned over in-

My finger was a most off, and my band was bleeding fast. Using tbe bull's-eye lantern, ana sopping Urn's shawl in tbe water, I tried to bring tbe Cuban to. Kit it waa no use, and ae river mart be readied before daylight. So leaving him then, we once more fled toward tbe Mississippi. act before daylteht we reached (fo bank ob de river. Half-a-mUe furder ap we saw a canoe tied near a woodman's bat OB de shore. We entered de canoe and I paddled It acrose deriver for dear life. For two days and nights we hid among de bushes. On de third day I balled a raft of coal boats, returning unloaded ta de Ohio. Dey took os on board. Lida acted ae cook, while I assisted as best ooold till we reached Pittsburg. During de voyage poor little Tom was taken sick. Dat night In de canebrake had been too much for him, and be died ob a burning fever, calling for his bntdder Joe.

de poor little fellow began to fail, lida bad her work to attend to at the big house, so I bed to ran over from de forge tend the baby. In dat way I lost a ieal of time, but I did love my babies so much dat my heart waa almost broke to one obdetn drooping day by day. Little Tom seemed to know his bradder was sick, for he would crawl over to de ied on de door, lay hia tiny band on Joe's face, and in hia baby way say 'Poor little Joe.' I tell yon, dat was migbty hard to bear, maasa. "One evening, just before dark, 1 was rooking de sick chile In my arms before de cabin door. 1 bad done a bard day^i work at the forge and as 1 bad been up most all de night before, watching *w Lida at de Utile one's bedside, I was mighty tired and worn.

A MAN'S TENDERNESS

FOR LOVE OF A LITTLE CHILD.

He was a quiet, unsentimentsl man, but never went borne at night without something that would make the want face light up with joy at his return. He never said to a living soul that he loved tbe boy BO much. Still he went on patiently loving him, and by-and-by he moved that whole shop into positive! real but unconscious fellowship with him. Tbe workman made curious little jars and cups upon their wheels, and painted diminutive pictures down their sides before they stuck them in tbe corners of tbe kiln at burning time. One brought some fruit in the bulge of his apron, and another engravings in a rude scrap-book.

Not one of them whispered a word, for this solemn thing was not to be talked about. They put them in the old man's hat, where he found them he understood all about it, and-, believe it or not, cynics, as you will, but it is a fact that tbe entire pottery full of men of ratber coarse fibre by nature, grew quiet as tbe mouths drifted, becoming gentle aud kind, and some dropped swearing as the weary look on the patient fellow-worker's face told them beyond mistake tbat tbe inevitable shadow was di awing nearer Every day now some one did apiece of work for him and put it on the scandal plank to dry, so that be could come ater and go earlier. So, when tbe bell tolled and tbe little coffin came out of the lowly door, right around the corner out of sight there stood 10* stalwart working men from the pottery with theis clean clothes on, most of whom gave a half day's time for tbe priviledge of taking part in the simple procession and following to the grave the small burden of a child which probably no one had ever seen. ft &

HARD TO BELIEVE.

Curtis McGregor, of Caddo Peak, had bisarm mutilated by a gun. It was amputated near tbe shoulder. He was able to sit up and walk about tbe room, but complained from tbe first pain in the amputated hand, and declared there were bugs in it This continued until the eighth day after tbe amputation, when tbe friends exhumed and examined the amputated arm, which had been buried in a box with a cloth wrapped around it. A large bug was founa in the hand as stated by McGregor.

Dreams aire coming into play &S detectives of lost property. An old Irish lady dreamed tbat a distant kinsman was in possession of an estate in Pennsylvania which was rightfully hers, came over, brought suit and recovered it. So a citiof Memphis died recently, having polices of insurance on his life wbicn could not be found among his effects, finally, a friend of the deceased had a dream in which he saw tbe lost policies, and on waking went to tbe place indicated and found them. Perhaps, in time, mi'•••iftnai win ^9 appealed to as successfully for the recovery of lost articles as clairvoyants are now, or as Connecticut detectives for the unraveling of crime. "Here my good fellow," said an Eng lish lord at a Philadelphia hotel table, as he slyly laid a dollar under his napkin "What is that for?" asked the waiter without moving. "For? Why, that's for you. Take It." "For me? And why for me?" "Surely you must understand," whispered the lord in astonishment, "tbat is your tip. I never give less than a dollar." "You are mistaken, sir," Bald tbe waiter, drawing himself up haughtily. "I am paid by the landlord for my service. I accept no Hips.' I am an American." N. B.—This was told us by a hotel man, who said be hoped to die if it was not true. We are expecting every morning to hear qt his death.

A lady, traveling with ber little boy in a drawing-room car recently, appeared to have much trouble in keeping tbe child wltbin bounds. He would craw! ever and under tbe seat, startling and disturbing tbe other passengers, open and shut the windows, and, in short, make himself as numerous as circumstances would permit. No admonition from his mother was effectual in producing more than a minute of quietude. At length an irritated passenger said with a world of sleeping sarcasm in his voice: "your little boy appears to be particularly lively, madam." "Ob, yea," responded the lady sweetly "he thinks heM in church."

HOW TO OOOK FOWLS,

If you have any doubt in regard to the age of a turkey or any large fowl, it is a wise precsution to steam it antil you can lift the wing from the body with ease. Do not stuff it before steaming, but two or three stalks of celery may be placed in it, and they will give a delicious flavor to the meat. It is better to Use twine than skewers to keep the turkey limbs in proper plaoe, there is not so mueh danger of tearing tbe skin. It should be the coos's aim to preserve the good looks of the fowl as far ss possible. If it is well dredged with flour, after it is put in tbe dripping-pan to roast, and then little lumps of butter laid on, it will help to give it the desired delicate brown

"How Is Congress divided?" wu tha next opmtion. A llttla iriri in the class raised ber hand, indicating that she could answer it "Well," said the examiner, "MissSallle, what do you say tbe division is?" Instantly, with an air of conidenoe as well as triumph, the answer came: "Civilised, half civ and savage."

The ideas of childhood are sometimes very clear. "Mamma, does God put down everything we do that is baa, so He won't forgetlt?" said a little chubby cheeked theologian the other day. The mother assured him tbat some kind of a record of such things was probably kept and that some day we should have to confront it. Chubby cbeeks thought a minute, and then added, what we older folks have thought many a time, •Mamma, God must be terribly .busy most always, isnt He?" Children notions of heaven area little vague—as whose are not?—but there may be some truth hidden under the enthusiastic as sertion of another little fellow who threw his arms about his mother's neck and said: "Mamma, if I should go tQ beaven before you do I would just hook a pair of wings from some angel when he was out shopping, and come down and see you once in a while." Why not?

DID you ever watch a dear little baby waking up from its moruing nap? It is one of tbe prettiest sights in the world. There Is the crib, with its small preparations and snow-white drapery tbat covers something, outlined, round and plump. There is nothing to reveal what it is not the slightest movement of tbe pillowed whiteness that is visible—no sound to Indicate keenest actual life,until tbe hour band of the clock that stands sentinel, like yourself, baa twice made its circuit. Then there is a slight pulsing in tbe white drapery, a small, pink, tremulous hand, fair as a rosebud, is thrust out, and from the nest thus broken into appears a round, diminutive face, with wide open eyes that have not much speculation in tbem yet. Soon, however, they cease to stare, and become questioning, serious, aa if wondering what kind of a world they open upon and tbe bead lifts itaelf just a little, and two snow wbite feet stand np spasmodically, with a simultaneous movement, each one of which has an e'lttndant dimple.

Tbe first lingering go-o-o comes from its rosy depiba, sweeter than any bird's song, for 1ft has a apirit tone and yet retains a thrill of bis native sklee. Tbe chubby bands are lifted imploringly, persuasively—the baby, awake, ceases to be an sngel.
