i left Atlanta, Ga, ut noon, Jan. -,
1890, and arrived In Columbus, Co., to-
ward evening. Feeling tho effects of
h mnlady como on, I took about
twenty grains OF quininc during the
day, and toward evening ] was fairly
crazcd with the drug.
On arriving nj Columbus I went to

hearted old woman, full of southern

good woman thnt felt very i'll aud
asked her to do for me whnt she could
She assigned mo to = room and I re-
tired at once. She brought me . quart
pitcher full Of sugc tea, and In n short
time l pcrspircd freely. Yet my breath
seemed TO get short oil the time, md I
'>ccnmc thoroughly alarmed. There I
was, far away from friends and nc
l~ucintanccs, with no one but this
strange woman near me.
! raised myself half up in bed and
with faltcring voice said: Mrs. -, I
think ! l going to die this very night.
and I want to nsk q favor Of you; in
case ! should be taken away please do
not send me to tho public morguc. Go

fin and keep mo here until some Of my
friends como. Hero is my p~ocketbook

The woman looked ut me pitifully,
nodded her head, and then left me, al I
thought, for the night
In about thirty minutes, however. she
returned with n yardstick in her hand,
saying: II wcnta across the street to Mr..
Watkins. told him you were n little
cripple, likely to die, and you wanted q
coffin. lie said II you would take ono

mites were ready they were Tlaccd be-
fore the elephant, who during the pro-

was completed. On the occasion related.

seized tho opportunity of his muhout's

TO steal and swallow one Of the chupat-

there being one less than he had n right
