Washington Republican,

The other night, as two daughters OF one
OF our most respectable citizens. who re
sides in the suburbs, were about retiring,
the Younger, little girl OF seven, said TO
her sister:
"Minnie, smell a niger"
Minnie, who is young lady OF sixteen,
said to the child:
Nonsense; you don't smell anything OF

" | smell him true. There's darby some
where about this ROOM"
This rather startled the elder sister; but
she concluded to look about and see II any
stray African could be found. She looked
i'm the closet, in the hall, and all about, and
finally under the bed, and there she saw
lusty colOred man lying on the floor. the
whites Of his eyes gistening in the dark
ness. Mr.. Negro, as soon as he was disco
vered, rolled himself out aud started for
downstairs. The elder girl, with remarka.
bic bravery, ran after him, clught'him, and
attempted to hold him, the little one scream
ing all the while. The noise awakened an
elder brother, who made his appearance
Just as the darby, who had freed himself

Religious Tramps.


"That man Is a religious tramp" said
Manager Bunting, OF the Christian Home
for Incorporate Men. The man had appa-
rently just passed middle life. "He can
sing finely, pray earnestly, and eXhort elo.
quentE. | wish could talk as well as be
eau"
"Wby do you call him a religious
trampT"
81 will explain. There are religious
tramps Just the same as there are tramps
who prey upon the general public, and who
are honest enough to make no prctence Of
religion. These religious tramps are known
to every evangelist, clergyman, and phil0n-
thropist. They haunt gospel Temperance
meetings, make religious professions in the
meetings OF the women's Christian unions,
are present at the missioD.rooms, and when
one city fails TO afford them further pecu.
mary relief they start out in the track OF a
temperance orator, or follow up some re-
yiyaI movement, visiting all parts Of the
country"
