How He ssFooled the GirIs!"

Harry Long is jolly, miSchievouS boy,
with great big heart, and lots of fun in
him. On last Wednesday night Harry
was notified that he would be expected to
escort some young ladies home, and as he
was in the telephone exchange, and could
not get out without the ladies seeing him,
he hit upon scheme for fooling the girls,
and escaping; for Harry don't like to re-
tire in the afternoon.
Aided by War. Isham, he prepared a
way of escape from the rear of the eX-
change 1.-THE ladies were in Longs storel
which was by means of rope suspended
from the window. In the rear of the
Sternberger Block, the building is three
stories high, and it is long ride hand
overland" by rope. After securing the
rope, Isham got out first, but came back,
to make the means of descent more Sc
cure. The rope was hauled up, and knots
tied at regular distances, for hand-holds
Harry was now eager to get out first
But, after starting down the rope, Harry
soon discovered that the way of decep.
tion, like the way of the transgressor, is
very hard, and very hot. That rope went
through his hands, as the sailors would
say, at about fourteen knots second, anC
Harry came up with bump and crash
among a lot Of scrap tin, old stoves, coal
buckets and brickbats, as there is tin
shop next door to the exchange. He be
gan yelling Justify that his leg was bro
ken. Isham ran hastily down the stairs
and after watching Harry's agony owe
his crushed limb for some time, asket
him to move his foot-then his leg The1
it was discovered that no bones were bro
ken. He got up and walked away, an,
about all the sympathy he got was a re
mark from one of "the girls" that the
"heard something crash down into tn
back yard, but thought it was Mr.. Ora
ham throwing out an old stove"
Harry is now willing to make affidavit
that, though he may be about telephon
exchange for forty years, he will neve
again try to make ground connectio
with a rope.
