"rhs wuss Boy

from the Detroit Free Pross.l
All the old women for blocks up |
and down Sixth street called him
l<khe wust boy" and Jim did much
fo win the title and keep 1t. He
fought everything and everybody,
hafsssed cats and abused dogs, aud
various attempts have been made
duflpx the last year to get him set |
sled In the Reform School. The
'ssvust boy, has made q new de-
perture, and though it may not be
fastipr.' as 1t is for the better, 1t
viii probably furnish opportunity
for some other boy to STEP in and
claim the unenviable title.
ssThe wust boy" cared nothing
for the sight Of Grape on the knob,
and . funeral procession was as
good as q parade to him. Surprise
was therefore manifest on every
countenance when he softly
knocked at the door the other week
and said:
II hain't got no good clothes to
70 to the funeral, but I'd like to see
the old lady's face agin, afore she's
covered up In the ground"
A motherly old lady in his neigh
borhood had passed away. So far
As the public knew he hated
her. as he seemed to hate all the
rest, but the public didn't know.
II Jim had condescended to explain
he would have said:
tWell, yer see, one night when
that big Tom Skip laid fur me and
had me as good as mashed, this
,ers woman rushed out and pulled
him off and slammed him agin the
fence till his elbows echoed. Then
aRin, she let me play with the
children, and she axed me to din
ner, and more'n once she's took up
for me and said the neighbors
didn't give me q fair show"
They let him in to see her dead
face, half expecting to see some
ghostly trick on HE part and never
dreaming that he would lean over
and kiss the cold cheek, and that
tears would come to his eyes.
Where's the children ?" he
asked, as he turned from the coffin.
"Up stairs, poor things"
"Its going to be tuff on 'em, isn't
it?"
eyes; they will see hard times,
poor darlings."
"There's leetie bit of feller
'mong 'em what's named Pete"
continued the "wust boy;""whatll
it cost a week to pay his way?"
The women smiled at the Idea,
but seeing how earnest Jim was,
one Of the women replied: .
s'Oh, about fifty cents, [ guess"
The boy went out without word,
and in the course of half an hour
another lad handed in piece Ct
wrapping paper in which was en-
closed o silver quarter. On the
paper was scrawled the words (the
work of three or four boys):
II boap she's gon to hevvins, an
I'll talk car of little peter at fifty
sents o week. Here's the fus 'stal.
ment. "GIM."
The next day he sent in the
balance, and last week the Sin
stallment was promptly forth
coming. Jim has n boot-black's Is
kit and has gone to work, and the
old women who called him the
"wust boy" now look upon him
and exclaim
swell, now, who'd a-thought
that boy had soul in him !"
