THE ARKANsAw TRAVELLER

never tore up the old house-just throwed in around it and in it till he has almost buried it."
 "Why?"
 "Oh, 1t is just notion of his. He didn't want to see the old house tore up, and there it is now, with just the roof stickin' out. In little while it will be one level yard, 20 by 80, and a corner lot, too, And by the time it all gets filled up-well, me and the old man is gettin' feeble now, and we won't last much longer. But, now that we are all out of debt and just enough left to do to keep the old mans hand in, it does me good to think of that old mudhole and how we had to save and slave and pinch to pay for it. And l think the old man likes to stand there in the corner and look back how level and smooth it is, and think how it was done, handful at time, through the rain and the snow and the sunshine. Fourteen years It was big job, but we stuck to it, and Pm restin' now, for my work is done. The old man don't work like he used to, but he says his job ain't finished yet, and he keeps fillin' up."
 "And when his work is done"
 "Then he'll rest, too."
The Arkansaw traveler., 1888-05-12
Santa Fe Vestibule Trains.

The vestibule train is a new factor in western railroad transportation. It is claimed for these trains that on &C., count of their being connected by steel hoods all danger of telescoping in case of accident is removed, the train being practically one long car. It is certain that the oscillation of the cars is greatly reduced, and it is also certain that the vestibule trains afford the greatest comfort yet known to travel CTS. The adoption of this style of train by the Chicago, Santa Fe & Cal ifornia railway between Kansas City and Chicago, is strong bid for the passenger traffic between the west and Chicago. This new road is in many particulars ahead of any of its older competitors, and will undoubtedly be the popular road to Chicago.

THAT STREAK OF LUCK.
MT. Morelock Tells How He Happened to Invest in Louisiana Lottery Ticket and What He is Going to Do With the Money.

It will be remembered that Mir Louis D. Morelock, who has for 8 number of years occupied the position of night clerk for the Adams Express Company, recently came in possession of the snug little fortune of fifteen thousand dollars through an outlay oi one dollar for one-twentieth ticket in the March drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery. A Courier reporter dropped into the Adams Express Company's office last night, where he found MT. Morelock, awaiting the arrival of the midnight express. He seemed to be in unusually good spirits, and in his pleasant manner conversed on various subjects until he drifted into conversation regarding the Louisiana State Lottery, in which he gave statement of how he came to purchase the ticket, about the re- ceipt of the money and what he in- tends to do with it.
 MT. Morelock said: "Just having one dollar to spare, I bought twen- tieth of ticket No. 51 ,570. When arrived home I gave it to my little girl to play with, when my wife saw it and put it away in the baby's iron safe. 1 did not think of it again until my wife asked me what my ticket had drawn. replied I did not know, but would see when I went to work. took the ticket with me, and that night when the reports of the drawing came, I looked all over the list, but did not notice the number drawing the capital prize. took second look to see what number had drawn the S300,000, and found that held the lucky number. I sent the ticket to New Orleans, 0. O. D. $15,O0O, and about week later received the amount and five dollars additional in New York exchange. I deposited it in the bank, and do not intend to touch any of it now that I am able to work, and intend to go right along as I have been doing. But I now feel secure, and know that should anything happen to me my family will be left in comfortable circumstances. This was the first lottery ticket I ever bought" Ecansvtl9e (Ind.) Courier, March 2S.

PLANT A TREE.
BY LUCY LARCoM.
He who plants a tree,

He who plants a tree,
 Plants a hope. Rootlets up through flores blindly grope; Leaves unfold into horizons free.
 So mans life must climb
 From the clods of time
 Unto heavens sublime. Canst thou prophecy, thou little tree, What the glory of thy boughs shall be?
 He who plants tree,
 Plants a joy; Plants comfort that will never cloy; Every day a fresh reality,
 Beautiful and strong,
 To whose shelter throng
 Creatures blithe with song. If thou couldst but know, thou happy tree, Of the bliss that shall inhabit theel
 He who plants a tree,-
 He plants peace. Under it's green curtain jargons cease, Leaf and zephyr murmur soothlngly;
 Shadows soft with sleep
 Down tired eyelids creep,
 Balm of slumber deep. Never hast thou dreamed, thou blessed tree, Of the benediction thou shalt be.
 He who plants tree,-
 He plants youth; Nigor won for centuries, in sooth; Life of time, that hints eternity!
 Coughs their strength uprear,
 New shoots, every year,
 On old growths appear. Thou shalt teach the ages sturdy tree, Youth of soul is immortality.
 He who plants a tree,-
 He plants love; Tents of coolness spreading out above Wayfarers, he may not live to see. Gifts that grow. are best;
 Hands that bless are blest;
 Plant Life does the resti Heaven and earth help him who plants a tree And his work its own reward shall be. -YOuth'S Companion

New Yorker-"The most amazing thing which has happened for years occurred just before I left New York. All the elevated railroad cars suddenly appeared one morning with scriptural texts painted where the advertisements of corsets, patent med icine and things were last year, on the panels over the windows, you know. The managers haven't the least idea who did it. All they know is that the space was bought by a regular railroad advertising agent, and he is supposed to have rented it to third parties, who have stipulated that their names shall be kept secret"
 Omaha Man-"Can't imagine who they are, eh?"
 "Well, my theory is that it is a trick of the horse-car companies to make the elevated railroads unpopu- lar"

The Poet Pope in His Old Age.
Austin Dobson, in scribner's.


 Alexander Pope had not, to use De Quincey's words, drawn that supreme prize in life, Ca fine intellect with a healthy stomach" ," and his whole story testifies to that fact. As years went on his little figure, in it's rusty black, was seen more rarely in the Twicken- ham lanes, and if he took the air upon the river, it was in sedan chair that was lifted into a boat. When he wis., ited his friends his sleeplessness and his multiplied needs tired out the ser- wants while in the daytime he would nod in company, even though the prince of Wales was talking of fpoetry. He was 8 martyr to sick headaches, and in the intervals of relief from them would be tormented by all sorts of morbid cravings for the very dietary which most inevitably secure their recurrence. This continued strife of the brain with the ignobler organs goes far to explain, if it may not excuse, much of the less admirable side of his character. His irritability, his artifice, his meannesses even, are more intelligible in the case of @ man habitually racked with pain, and mor- bidly conscious of his physical short comings, than they would be in the case of those "whom God has made full-limbed and tall" and, in the mo- ble teaching of Arthur's court, his infirmities should entitle him to larger charity of judgment.
