Changed His Mind.

A few days ago tall, rough looking
mountaineer entered the Union Railroad
ticket office at Denver, and through mis-
take purchased ticket for New York via
the Kansas Pacific line, when he wanted
to go over the Union Pacific. He did not
discover this fact until after the ticket had
been paid for, and on asking the agent to
change it, the latter refused to dose
You won't change this ticket then,
won't you ~
mo, sir,' replied the agent; "you have
your ticket and l have the money for it,
and if you want ticket over the other
route you will have to buy it,
Very quietly the stranger twisted his
ticket into a small roll very serenely he
drew from under his right coat-tail a six
shooter about the dimensions of a noun
tain howitzer; cody and deliberately he
stuck the twisted ticket into the muzzle of
that siX-shOoter, and sticking the ugly
looking thing through the little square
window of the ticket office, and almost into
the agent face, and speaking in tone
that left no doubt of his determination,
said:
stranger, there's that ticket take it
yourself and change it, or I'll blow it clean
through you"
The ticket was changed immediately,
and without any more words from the
agent, the mOuntaineer walked away,
saying: II jest thought l could induce
him TO change his mind a leetle."

Mother Goose not a Myth.

Mother Goose, OF whom nothing certain is

name history does not reveal In this
statement, however the writer is in err
ror; for so far from Mother Goose being
creature of fancy, we beg TO assure him,
a veritable parsonage.
The mother-in-law of Thomas Fleet,

where her eldest daughter, Elizabeth
Goose, was married by Cotton Mather, in
1915, to Fleet, and in due time gave birth
to son. Like most mothers-in-law in our
own day, the Importance of Mrs. Goose
increased with the appearance of her
grandchild, and poor Mr.. Fleet, half dis
tracted with her endless nursery ditties

ridicule could effect, and actually printed

Mother Goose was the mother Of nine

St. Louis Produce Market.

Wheat indicates further weakening on
all grades both spring and fall. Even
prime and choice lots were slightly off,
selling at reduction on prices of the past
few days. Corn, with accommodating stocks
and no means of handling, continues dull
and declining. Oats are also on the sick
list, and is suffering from the same conl~
plant that is going through most of the
cereal family. Very little was done yes
terday and market easier. Barley was un-
changed, prices remaining firm, but mar
ket quiet. Rye was weak, few buyers no
chance to ship, and small transactions.
Hay met its first setback yesterday the
receips were heavy, and, as there is no
outlet for it, prices on all grades went back
50 to SO per ton. Cotton was dull, although
quotations remain nominally as hereto
fore. Sales were made Mt a range of 152
to lSc. Hemp is without additional life
or movement. There was a small break
at the tobacco warehouse yesterday, and
eleven hogsheads sold, some lots being
passed and rejected. The feeling was firm,
and prices obtained full for quality. Lard
doing nothing, and quotations nominal.
Provisions were generally quiet, with
rather dull feeling. We do not note any
quotable change III tigures.-N. Louis

An Unearthed AnecdOte of Two Fossil Poll
tiCianS-iIangman FOOte and JEFF. Davis.

Nashville Cor. Louisville COurer-J ournal
Foote and Davis were in Congress in 1S4S,
while Taylor and Cass were candidates for
the Presidency, and occupied room to-
gether at the Willard Hotel One evening,
seated by the same fireside, Mr. Davis read
aloud from political letter of Gen. lay
!or, and made Running comments for AiT.
Foote's declaration, which the latter
thought were rather too friendly for
Democratic Senator to give expression to
in the heat ola canvass. In fact, he init
mated quite strongly that he thought DR..
Davis, at heart was Taylor man that
spite of his professed support of the Demo-
cratic nominee, he would secretly rejoice
over Gen. Taylor's election. Mr., Davis
had married q daughter of Gen. Taylor,
and this little circumstance, Mr.. Foote
suggested, was at the bottom of his col
leagues compliment of the letter, adding,
in his impetuous way, that it would doubt
| less be very nice thing, after all, to be
! son-in-law of the PresideBt-even a Wing
President Mr. Davis could not brook his
sarcastic intimRtion of treachery ON his
part, and retortd in severe language, one
| word bringing on another until the grave
| and reverend came to blows. The noise
of the fisticuff aroused other Congressman,
who rushed into the room and separated
! the combatants, admonishing them OF the
| shame which would attach to two distin-
guished Senators from the same State in
dulging in disgraceful knock down. This
view of the matter naturally brought the
two to terms. and like the man and wife
who ''arguedn the question Of FRAT or
mouse,n they shook hands and made
friends

all around really, / should not have
thought OF such thing as striking Mr..

Signing Names.
by HENKY WARD BEElth nh

II have bro't yer riverince n paper
which hope yer riverince will sign, for
poor MANI
This he says as he fumbles in his poke
for paper. He pulls out cotton hand
kerchief, then crumpled mass of news
paper and certain queer and crushed bit
OF white paper-white once, at any rate
but dingy enough now. 1t is not there
Another pocket is emptied. In third j:
found the 'dockyment"

state that each one of the signers is person.
ally acquainted with the candidate-that
of his own personal knowledge he is man
of good morals and upright life, temper
ate, industrious and every way fitted for
the trust solicited for him.
| well, my friend, what do you want of
me ~
"If your honor would sign the paper-''
But am not acquainted with you"
Eyes, yer riverince but these gintle-
men that have signed knows me, and suro
they WOUND mistake.n
Yes they sign for themselves but how
does that give me a personal knowledge of
you for ten years and how do | know that
you are sober or industrious and trust
worthy? | hope you are, but | know
nothing about it. / have never seen you
to my knowledge till this moment"
Another young man says, "Ifyou would
be kind enough to give me letter to Mr..
Clafiin, l know that he would give me a
place"
But sir, I do not know anything
about you, and ! can not recommend
you"
but here are papers, sir, that certify my
character
Very well; go and show the papers to
Mr.. Clatiin, and if he needs another man,
q j. LODI t;,l- L.,
will take you in
but your name sir would settle the
matter.n
Not long after it was understood that I
certified things or recommended men that
l knew nothing about.n
These things are not peculiar to me.
They happen to all men of any position or
influence. Men are solicited to lend their
names in manner that can not be justified
by honor.
The fact is now notorious that men have
put the signing of their names out of the
ordinary code of morality. Men will sign
merely to geITd of man. They will re-
commend II book which they know moth
ing about rather than hurt some ones feel
ings by a refusal. They will recommend
men as highly fitted for positions which
they positively know they are utterly un-
fitted for Nay, men will give to candi-
dates the strongest letters for an Office, and
theu write secret letters to headquarters to
say that the letter is not to be regarded.
Indeed it is said that in certain cases poll
ticians find it necessary to have it under
stood at headquarters that no letter is to be
regarded, unless it have some distinctive
signs upon it which have been agreed
upon. 0 .rH.
Is there not need of better public sen
timent on the subject of signing names ?
The laXity of practice is fast taking all
value from documents bearing eminent
names. Such a loose policy as is now pur-
sued ought 10 be ranked with falsehoods,
receptions and conspiracies to defraud.
