could be excited to lighting pitch. On
one occasion he attended public gathering
in the lower part Of Franklin county, at
some distric, court ground. During the day

BILLY Patterson severe blow from behind
Billy at once became fighting mad, and cried
out At the top Of his voice, "Who struck
billy Patterson?" No one could or would
tell him who vas the guilty party. He then
proposed to give any man . hundred dollars
who would tell him "Who struck Billy Pat

His Old Umbrella.

When you took a second look at him yo u

his back in trying. About noon yesterda av,
when the rain fell fastest, he appeared on
Woodward avenue under an old umbr ella
worth the price Of its ribs. At the Opera
House he placed the old rain -shedder in
doorway and took position in another not
far away. In about two minutes along came
a citizen with his left eve Watching tor Just

the grim man followed. The umbrella hook

residence and the grim man was close at his
heels all the way. As the citizen halted at
his gate, the other detained him, and quietly
remarked

had been reached and the umbrella replaced.
the citizen was about to turn away, but the

He writes with a caustic pen, and is

He is an original and independent
thinker, and despiser of imitators, as
his own words, which follow, will prove
There are three kinds of workers, and
only three, i'll this world. They are
the pullers-down, the builders-up and
the imitators. The first are the most
successful, the second are the most
sef-sacrificing, but the last the most
numerous. They make no beaten
tracks, for they take their feet up and
put them carefully down in the exact
steps Of their predecessors. The ghosts
of the dead and the spectres of great
ness are always before them. Author
ity is a god whom they worship with
devoted superstition. They say their
prayers with awe-stricken regularity
before the shrine of Anticipated error
and time-honored falsehoods. The
King of Men and Gods is "HE SAID SO.

follow what others have done. They
are happy in service and joyful in sla.

most teachers are imitators,
