A HARD GRIND.

A hand-organ man was making his
way up Adams avenue yesterday,
when a boy met him and asked:
GLOW many tunes do you play
"Zixteen shunes-nice, sweet
shunes,' replied the man.
my father is fond of music, but
he is a little deaf" continued the
boy.
"Oh, dat make no difference
make him hear"
The boy led the way up the street
to where a plaster bust of Sir Isaac
Newton had been arranged in a baby
window to look like a living man, and
the Italian spit on his hand and be-
gan on the crank. He ground out
all the tunes in rotation, and then be-
gan at the bottom and ground back
up the scale till he got all the tunes
in the garnet of the box again. The
man in the window didn't move a
hair, and the italian drew a long breath
and sighed:
"Play moar muzeek-mak q him
hear soon."
He ran out eight tunes and then
threw some gravel at the window.
The bust didn't even work its ears.
and the Italian leaned the organ on
the fence and loudly sang:
Oh! wh oSshall drinks of me som NOR.
WhsA l am far-a-w-a-y?
off at lively pace, while the man cough
! ed, whistled, kicked on the fence and
encouraged a dog-fight, in order to
attract the deaf mans attention.
''Sing louder-play harder!'' called
the boy, from the next street corner.
The grinder secured a brace for his
feet, upbuttoned his vest, and the
way he roared brought out the citi-
zens by the score. He kept his eyes
on the bust and gave no heed to the
the crowd, and the organ box was
smoking hot when he let up on the
grind. Resting the music ON the
ground, he leaped over the fence and
got a square look at his victim. His
quiet grin faded into Il look of woe
and misery and murder, and getting
his eyes on the boy with the red neck
tie, he ran him four blocks and under
a carpenter shop before a still small
voice whispered that he had better
hold on.-DetrOit Free Press.
