AN EXCITED YOUTH.
Getting Aboard the Stage. He Didn't
Know whether He was a-Foot or on
Horseback.

A little travel is necessary for an
even composure in changing commu-
mites, and while some natives Of this
region are utterly miserable if they
are not certain of 1000 mile excur.
sion annually, others will tremble at
the thought Of trip into the outer
world, and their imaginings cannot be
described. There are many who
climb the hurricane deck of the Black
foot stage to go to New York with
as much composure as duckling dis
plays in entering pond, while Others
require week to bid adieu to their
friends, with the trapidation Of Hin
doc to overthrow his idol. Fred
johnson IS one Of the latter, and moth
ing short Of the prospect of meeting
NanNess could have induced him to
undertake the trip. Fred. was in a
f1utter week before, and when the
morning arrived he was utterly gone.
The boys put up sumptuous lunch
for him Of cold fowl, boiled breast Of
turkey, mallard duck, quail, venison
and sweethreads. \ friend also sout
around an entire big fat turkey, all
stuffed and cooked, with cranberry
pie and a jug Of Jacobs best old rye
whisky. There was enough for a
dozen men. rs tie party were ready
to present it, Fred. was unconscious Of
everything, and hardly recognized one
from another. The stage from

went flying past on its way to the ex-
press ofiae. Fred. without oyereoat.
lunch or baggage, gave it chase, and,
overtaking it, fell on the back seat ex-
haustcd. He did not remember that
the stage always lays over half an
hour in town, TO get on the mails and
express, but soon finding that he was
not on the road, he recollected his
baggage and overcoat and ran up to
his room for them, but forgot his va
lise and boarded the stage again. He
departed, leaving his grand lunch be-
hind and some other important arti-
Giles he had purchased for the trip, and
scarcely said goodbye to any one.
The boys all met at Rainey's, satur-
day, Toasted upon his lunch, and
wished Fred. a pleasant trip, and that
he meet Van and be happy. But,
next time he travels, he will probably
qe less excited.

A Stuck-Up Lab0rer.

The proprietor of one OF our first
class restaurants desiring bit of ex-
ereisc, recently, went into the back
yard to saw wood, job for which he
employs Cinnamon regularly. Be-
coming very much heated and enjoy
ing the exercise he stripped to his
WOODEN shirt, pulled his hat over his
eyes, and was saving with all his
might, when lady came up and
tapped him on the shoulder, remark
ing: 81 say, my good man, would
YOU like to earn half a dollar?n The
proprietor looked amazed, when the
proposition was repeated, and in an
swer to his question as to what he was
wanted to do, she replied: "Come,
my good man, run up to the hotel and
carry my Saratoga to the stage office,
and I'll pay you half dollar Upon
his Stammerlng a refusal she lndtg-
nantly founced away, and upon en-
tering his own restaurant inquired of
the gentleman's wife: "Who is that
fellow out there? He is like all the
men in this country, too independent
to earn half dollar. Why, | offered
the man half dollar to carry my
trunk, and he refused. Ny sakes! |
never did see such common stuck-up
laborers.n The lady looked, and qui-
city replied: "Why, that is my hus-
band, the proprietor of this house."
Tho conversation stopped.
