The legislature ought to exhibit liberal
spirit towards the worlds fair, both from
patriotic motives and a desire TO advance
the Interests of Wisconsin. 1t is much

made and to the advantages she has TO

charge ourselves with in the past, it Is the
neglect Of proper advertising. For years

There were eighteen men and one
small boy in the Indiana avenue car
as it swung around Lake street on to
State yesterday afternoon. As it
turned on Madison street the ladies,
most of them fatigued by chasing
after spring dress bargains in the
stores, began to file in, and one by
one the men rose and gave up their
seats.
At Twelfth street there were twenty
six ladies, one large old gentleman
and the small boy seated. while a row
of able-bodied citizens developed their
muscles by dangling from the ends of
the straps.
The large old gentleman seemed 10
be watching the small boy. but the
small boy was not Watching the large
old gentleman. He sat with his hands
in his pockets. 6dgeting upon his seat
and anon whistling in . penetrating

WuiCn poTiOTiuduCo Cduocu tuo iuIBo
old gentleman to scowl.
At Eighteenth street two more
ladies entered the car and reached for
straps. The old gentleman instantly
arose, and, with courtly bow, sur
rendered his seat to the first Of the
ladies. Then he looked around for
seat for the other and suddenly his
eye fell upon the small boy, still seat
ed and contentedly whistling softly to
himself A panied expression fell
over the old gentleman's face, and
startled gaze quickened on the boys
features as a hand-a large, firm
handkerchief his arm and panied
voice said: William, get up this
instant and give your seat to the
lady. Great goodness That I
should live to see boy of mine sit
ting and whistling while lady is
standing! What shall your poor old
mother say when l tell her this?
William, am going to teach you
here and now never to disgrace my
name again"
The small boy listened open. mouth
ed to the gentle TRADE, and, Intellectual
ly trying to wriggle out of that firm
grasp, now suddenly found himself
elevated, face down over large,
broad knee. He had just time to
gasp, 81 amt no boy of yours" when
there ensued what is described as one
of the grandest and most symmetrical
whackings ever administered in this
or any other age. During the per-
formance the small boy had repeated
his original statement three times in
three different keys, and then he was
set upon the floor.
The conductor, man of delibera.
tion, evidently, here thought it his
duty to interfere.
"Here!" he said; "you shouldn't
lick that boy if he's no relation to
you."
II never seen him BEFORE" whined
the boy.
"What What1" said the old
gentleman f; "does the young rascal
deny his own father?"
Then he put on his glasses and his |
expression of astonishment was beauti-
ful to see.
"Why, bless me-" he exclaimed,
"why, l thought it was my youngest
boy, William. Dear mel I hope I |
haven't inconvenienced you, young
sir; you'll excuse me, won't you!"
Here the car was running merrily |
past Twenty-sixth street, and the boy |
said something that sounded like |
"police."
"Oh. you want to 60 to the police
stationi" said the old gentleman
benevolently. "Been carried too far,
eh! Well, we'll rectify that mistake |
at once"
And that large, kindly old gentle
man took the small boy bv the collar,
helped him gently over the hind plat
form, and dropped him.
The boy was so bewilded that he |
stood on the road until he he was al
most run over by a hanson, while the
old gentleman stepped back into the
car, while the men all touched their
hats, while six ladies arose and quar-
relied with each other to give him a |
