JOSEPHUS DID 1T.

How the Golden Opportunity Game to a
Lean and Hungry Negro.
There was grocery just across from the
depot, and on bench under the window
were seven large watermelons. says the
New York Sun. A short, cadaverous-look-
ing colored man sat on baggage truck
looking across at the grocery. After a bit
one of our crowd sauntered up to him and
carelessly observed:
"Some fine melons over there"
"Deed dey is, boss" was the reply.
"Do colored folks ever eat watermelons?"
''Does dey? Does dey eat watermellyons
should reckon to consider dat dey did !"
SIS that so2 How many colored men about
your size would it take to get away with one
large melon"
"How many9 Say, boss, pears to me you
doan' lib in dis kentry."
"No; I'm just over from England"
"Dat accounts. Yer doan' know us. How
many would it takea You'd better ak how
many mellyons would be wanted fur one
Guild pusson named Josephus Pardon"
"You don't mean you could eat whole
ones"
"Doan' L II can't eat de hull seben, pll
\ 60 off to de swamp an dep
We Clipped in to buy up the lot and give
the man the golden opportunity Of his life.
4 The melons were brought over and laid in
a row, and Josephus removed hat and coat
and let out his leather belt three notches
and sat down with his back braced against
"a box.
II Rip! went the knife as he got the word,
81 and the storm had burst. He cut the
melon into four pieces, dropped the knife
and In just two minutes by the watch moth
ing was left but heap of rinds and hand
tul OF seed. A second was rolled over to
him, and he gained five seconds on his other
time. On the third he lost ten seconds, and
on the fourth nearly a minute. He cut the
fifth, ate quarter of it, and then stood up
to inquire:
"Wasit 'spected dat was to eat de hull
seben right downa"
"Oh, no. The idea was to see how many
you could eat at oncen

dld believe could git away wild de lot in

be soon finished the fifth, and then took
melon under each arm and made for
thlcket down the track Twenty minutes
after he left the train came along, and as
we rode past the thicket Josephus rose up
with solitary melon in his hands, bowed
his thanks, and shouted:

only one left, and I'll git away wild him
