AS RICH AS CREAM Watering HIS MIX
Friday morning, while rain was falling
freely, a milkman from the Sixth District
took refuge in Mikes House, corner of
Lafayette and Carondelet streets, satisfying
an unusual desire to rectify Kentucky
milk, leaving his horse, cart and cans in
front of the house. Tuiakes and three or
four other jolly gentlemen were eating
lunch inside, and the peddler annoyed them
with constant invitations to drink. He
would not keep quiet, disturbing visitors
unceremoniously. To revenge themselves,
Tujakes stepped outside, led the horse to
position where the cart and cans would re-
ceive large stream of water from a spout
on the awning, thinking to annoy the ped
der, but they were mistaken, as both cans
and owner were too familiar with water to
be disturbed at such a common occurrence
Water had no terrOrs for that dairy
Looking at the situation with a CHASTITY
grin, the milkman returned to the counter
and once more spoiled glass of tanglefoot
While so engaged rain was pouring down,
and the gutter-spout cascaded like a foun-
tain. One of the jolly crowd, Bill Go,
slipped out and displaced the milk can
covers, thus permitting food of rain to
enter the mouths. In half a minute the
cans frothed and foamed over the tops, imi-
tating Buttermilk Falls or young Niagara.
The dairyman, hearing the roar, rushed out
to look after his COWS" and his confusion
was so utterly COMPOUNDED that he was al
most crazy. His first act to gain possession
of this singular situation was to turn the
faucets and so empty the cans, but he
quickly concluded that his tactics were
wrong.
Looking around to discover the authors
of this practical joke, he seized one of the
jokers hats and held it under the spout to
fill it. This was complete failure, as the
hat was like seive, letting out as fast as
taking in. While so engaged another of
the party seized the bell. to hold it as a
compensation for the spoiled hat, but the
reprisal was not noticed. The unhappy
peddler then mounted his cart and started
off in haste, as that locality had grown dis
agreeable to him; instead of boring he was
bored. AS he ratified along the rough street
milk and water stopped over at every jump,
while the jokers stood on the banquette
enjoying a hearty laugh to bell symphony.
That bell was Immediately "spouted" for
drinks all round, while Landlord Mike
looked on with rye face. The farce
amused several choice spirits, too glad to
break the monotOny of rainy day.

There is no use Disgusting it; we are retro
grading in literary taste. 1t was only few
years ago that the poems of Willis and
Bryant were read as the perfection of litera-
ture, while the beautiful hexameter of
Longfellow's "Evangeline," and "Miles
Standish" only found rival in the sweeter
strains of Tennyson's Maud" These
poems were truth, beauty and virtue in
verses. But a few years pass by, and the
profane offerings of John Hay and w. NJ.
Carleton, with their skepticisms and vul
garity, become the passion of the hour.
Lord Kames taught us that the poet or artist
could never succeed unless he wrote or
painted about some virtue; that no inspira-
ton could make good poetry out of intern
perance, ignorance or superstition. But
all at once Mr.. Hay writes a poem
for Harper's Weekly about how two
men in Illinois stepped up to the bar, and
asked for whisky skin" On both claim
ing the same glass a fight ensues, and they
go to hacking each other in the most APP
proved style with daggers. Now where is
the virtue, the moral element in all this
drinking and stabbing! Carleton's BETSY
and Are Out" is true-there is the virtue
of common honesty in it; and Jim Bludso
was as brave as Julius Caesar. But these
two poems are made to float a barrelful of
dreadful ba!derdash. Have we reached the
limit of the pure and ennobling in poetry,
and must we go back to the prOvincialisms
of Pike county for true thing! 1t is to
be hoped not. These new profanities are
only sensational and in little while they
will be forgotten, when we will return
again to the virtuous haven from which
comes the inspiration of Longfellow and
Tennyson. Bret Harte will live because he
holds a truth in his hands, and writes about
the virtues of even bad men.
