One would not need to be acquainted
with Will Carleton to know that he
had in him the higher instincts of
poet, had they seen the little incident
which occurred at the Rock Island de
pot when the immortal author of "Over
the Hills to the Poor House" was leav.
ing our city on Wednesday morning.
The train was little late and the mo-
ment it stopped at the depot the con-
ductor rushed into the office for orders
and the brakeman went to set a switch,
leaving the passengers to take care Of
themselves. 1t was raining as though
it were hired to do so by the job and
every body about the place was in a
furry. An old lady, nervous and lame,
came out of the car door and began TO
climb down the steps as best she could,
but between the wind, the slippery
steps and tue down pouring rain, the
poor old CT Ieature was nearly helpless.
Just then Mr.. Carleton came out of the
depot door. His eye caught the situa
tion like fash. Dropping his two
valises and his umbrella i'll the rain, he
rushed to the steps, assisted the old
lady down them and into the depot.
Returning, he picked up his baggage
aud boarded the train with the same in
difference and tender expression ON his
face that would have marked it had the
old lady been his mother rather than a
perfect stranger.

noon was too cool for comfort. but the
afternoon was delightful. Speakers
from distance were detained, but Tay-

The grand parade was pronounced ex-
ira good. Some Of the banners seen
floating in the breeze would have done

to mar the pleasure of the day. Mrs.
Alice Hodge fell while getting out Of the
buggy and was slightly bruised; f. ..
Patch vas knocked down by fracious
horse and slightly hurt; q horse be-
longing to Mrs. Martin was badly in
iured by a Kick near the stitle. Owing

day and night amounts to about S55.
