One of the checklist pieces of rascaly impu
dencc and insult that has occurred in this city
for some time, has come to the ears OF the
LIGHT reporter. young man, who has done
almost everything for living, last week saw
A very pretty and stylish lady on a street car.
He followed her home, and with IusGtul eyes
took the number Of her residence. which is on
St Mary's street. Hieing himself TO an hotel
where he was boarding. out meal ticket that
had been given him, he cOucocted note from
whicn the following is extracted:
Dear Miss-it has always been the custom
among the soc ETY. gentlemen of this city to
call on young ladies' who are comparative
strangers. or new settlers. without waiting for
formal intrOductOns | understand that YOU
but recently located here and | would be
pleased to call tomorrow night and present my
credentials. | met you the first time, last
week on street car going o the /. ana u N
depot. Please send answer
II that isn't q slam on the society gentle
men of San Antonio, what is? And that,
too, when the wOuld-be society young man
has never seen the inside of IA tirstclass resi-
deuce in this city. WHAT his credentials are,
or were. i is possible TO guess. The lady re-
ceving he note did answer, and at once Her
answer WIS:
INV brother will be in on tonight's train and
he will see YOU"
This astounding piece of information was
evidently surprise to him,a he has not been
seen at the hotel since and has not even been
seen at his accustomed haunts. Further de-
veiopmentS may appear.

ten | have wutten' Upon this text he de-
liVcrCd Il fine disc purse that Thoroughly

conc uSiun Of the sermon, which was of con-
siderable length, he asked the choir to sing
aud invited the audience to come up and
shake hands with him, aud 10 leave some little
pecuniary offering with him with which to
cDLtInue his work. Nearly every one in the
ton basket was soon piled high with their
silver coins.
The great evangelist was asked to remain
over night that another sermon might be
heard, but he declined on account of over
work. and because he had not the time to
spare. He left on the 2:I5 train yesterday al
ternCon for his Georgia home.

The doctor wrote prescription and
said his fee was $25 as the case was pre-

the fee, and after thfy got out laughed

A Human Almanac.

Brown county, ILL.,, has prodigy in
the shape of ten year-old boy with a
talent for days-and dates. Roy Oden-
weller, son of S. p. Olenweller of In
dustry township, is the infant wonder.
Give him any date in any month of this
year, last year or next year, and he can
at once tell you the day of the week
upon which it falls or has fallen. For
example, ask him on what day of the
week will October II, 1889, fall, and
he will promptly answer Thursday, "
~
last year or the year to come. How he
arrives at the solution he does not know.
Numerous gentlemen of undoubtcd YER
acity have repeatedly tested his strange
power. Tho little fellow is a bright
youngster, but does not exhibit any un-
usual precocity beyond this peculiar
gift. He says that beyond the three
years-the current, the last and the
next-he cannot give correct answers.
Next year he will lose all power over
1888 with which he is now conversanO,
and his mind will grasp that of 1891, of
which he now knows nothing. He has
no rule or method, nor does he know
how he arrives at the true answer, but it
is certain that he is correct when
answering. - Chicago Tribune.
