The Messenger Boy.

The diminuive professional messenger
boy, with his bright face and tasty uni
form, is 70 my mind a parsonage who de-
serves some little consideration. AS a
public institution he comes in for a good
deal of abuse. He never goes on a mes
sage and returns with an answer without
being "cussed' by the recipient of that
answer for not moving faster; the jokes
made at his expense by the newspaper
wits and comedians of the stage would
fill a book. and altogether MS lot, fancy,
IL one not exactly 10 be envied. And
think Of tine hours he has; il is never less
than twelve hours service a day that he
Is called on to perform, and the most
arduOus sort of service at that. He is
constantly on the move, never at rest;
he must 90 into all sorts Of places-often
into places where is is not good for boy
Of his years to enter-and he must always
appear neat, brisk and cheerful, or he
VIII stand in danger Of being bounced.
Something that never fails TO excite nv
sympathy is the sight. late at night, Of a
worn out district messenger boy fast
asleep (as have often seen them) in the
corner of street car, with his message
gripped faithfully in his chubby hand
and an expression OF premature old age
on his tired features. l never see this
last sight without resolving never to be-
rate one OF the youngsters for tardiness

their work wen. and deserve good word

to beckon lovers to moonlight walks
and sweet communion. The eXclama-
ton ABOVE quoted came from Gladys
MacArtey, daughter of Felix MacArtey,
twice over a millionaire, and Familiarity
known about the neighborhood as His
Jags." Felix was a Scayenger-that is
he owned controlling interest in the
MerZ system for the annihilatl0n OF bad
smells. Gladys was spoiled chlld.
She had been brought up with silver
spoon in her mouth, and she never knew
what it was to have an inning with the
washtub, owing to loving but over
indulgept father. Reared in the lap OF
luxury, she was peeyiSh under the
slightest restraint, and when chided by
pere Mac for going to the ball games
without an escort, she had been known
to so far forget her relationship as to
tell the old gentleman to go soak his
head. Such was the nature of Gladys
proud, naughty. arrogant. Onthe night
in question p. Wellington Ryan first
name Patrick, young man who rode
the bicycle without an accent and Is
possessed of many other rare charms of
character, came to seek the hand of
Gladys in marriage. p. Wellington had
loved Gladys ever since the last STORM
ing of the ice palace, and with purity
of motive born of desire to corral the
old gents money. Pere MacArtey was
ono the youth racket, but he liked the
lad at that, and told his daughter that
she might go farther and fare worse.
Gladys and her sweetheart had sought
out the old rustic bench sin the shadow
by the gate" She looked divine; he
felt nervous, and each seemed reluctant
to begin. "Gladysm at last he managed
to stammer, while he took grape vine
twist about her sylphlike form.

An age went by in a moment of
silence, then Wellington in an Earle Of
Fife way ventured-
Amt it about time we were getting
married?"
''Marriedw she cried in a sort of Peo
pies theater style. 81 love you with all
my soul, but cannot marry you, Mac"
You cannot, said he hoarsely; land
why not?'
Because you will persist in wearing
a flannel shirt during meals at Mahto-
medi."

drawer. The only clue was bottle of
medicine that had been accidentally
dropped 10y one of the burglars, and
which proved to have been put up at

medicine. Schafer was apprehended
yesterday. shortly after noon, by Officer
Koran, who saw him on the levee and
