Tho Terrible Inheritance OF Little
Child.

Tno Terrible Inheritance OF q Little
Child.
A few months ago | was present in
DIR. Carriers consulting room, says a
writer, watching the prisoners from
the depot filing past, We were in
formed that child had been brought
by its parents to be examined. These
people were shown in; they belonged
to the respectable working class, and
'Seere quiet and well hammered. The
man was the driver of dray belong
ing to one of the railway stations, and
had all the appearance of stalwart
working man. The boy was only six
years old; he had an intelligent, rather
pretty face, and was neatly dressed.
'See here, NJ. lie Docteur," said the
father, I'VE have brought you your
boy; he alarms us. He is no fool; he
begins to read; they are satisfied with
him at his school, but we cannot help
thinking he must be insane, for he
wants to murder his little brother, a
child two years old. The other day
he nearly succeeded in doing so. | ar
rived just in time to snatch my razor
from his hands"
The boy stood listening with indiffer-
ence and without hanging his head.
The doctor drew the child kindly to-
ward him and inquired:
SIS it true that you wish to hurt your
little brother?"
With perfect composure, the little one
replied:
II will kill him-yes. yes-I will kill
him."
The doctor glanced at the father and
asked in a low voice:
''Do you drink"
His wife exclaimed Indignantly:
''He, sir! Why, he never enters a
public house, and has never come home
drunk"
They were quite sincere. Neverthe.
less, the doctor said:
stretch out your arm"
The man obeyed his hand trembled.
Had these people told lies, then, in
stating that the man had never come
home the worse for drink? No; but
all through the day, wherever he
had called to leave a package, the PEG.
pie had given him something to drink
for his trouble. He had become a
drunkard without knowing it; and the
poison that had entered his blood was at
that moment filling the head of the lit.

overheard it Immediately spread the re-
port that the unfortunate boys We're TO

Light wines are no preventive of

not appointed to serve four years as in
the case with the little fellows in the
senate, but depend for the retention Of
their places upon the political situation.
Hence it is not at all surprising that
they should be pretty thoroughly con-
versant with all the great political
issues. Not that they would change
places with the senate pages. Oh, no.
For them they express the profc:,ndest
contempt and prefer to identify them
selves with some political party, shar-
ing the spoils in the shape of govern
ment positions, when there are any, and
retiring into oblivion when their party
is defeated, only to reappear when they
shall once more be on top.
In their way, too, these boys are EN-.

wonderful Escape OF Young Revolution
arr Riheman.
On the day of the Wyoming massacre
in IT'S, when more than three hundred
persons, men women and children,
were butchered by the Indians, Amos
Stafford, a youth of nineteen years, had
what almost might be called a miracu-
lous escape. According to The account
given by Mr.. Stone in his "Reminis-
cences Of Saratoga" young Stafford
was one of a reserve of rifiemen.
Shortly before the engagement ended,
the third man from him in the line fell,
then the second, then the man next to
him. His own turn would come next.
By this time, however, he had perceived
that these fatal shots were preceded
by puff of smoke from behind GER
tain log.
An Indian was picking off the reserve.
Amos kept his eye upon the spot Pres
emily head appeared above the log.
Instantly a bullet sped thither and
danger from that quarter was at an
end.
Soon the order was given to retreat.
Stafford waited to reload, and then ran
to an adjacent w heat field, where he
hoped to lie concealed till dark, but the
Indians stumbled upon him and he was
forced to jump up and run. AS he ran
he glanced over his shoulder An In
dian was upon his heels, with toma-
hawk lifted
Amos ran-hc could do nothing else
and pretty soon ca me to a brush fence
He cleared it at bound, faced about,
and as his pursuer mounted it he shot
him dead
Then he threw his musllet into the
PUSHES and plum ged into the river. A
shower of bullets followed him, but he
Owed, and on coming up struck out for
the opposite shore. Thence he ran be-
hind a ridge and jumped into marshy
spring. An Indian passed near him,
but suspected nothing.
Young Stafford rem aimed there over
night, hearing meanwhile the cries and
shrieks of the G arrison of Forty Fort,
whom the Indi ans were massacreing
The next tw o nights he passed in a
hollow tree. The woods We're alive
with savages. Once two or three sat
upon the log n which Amos was lying.
He heard the bullets rattle in their
pouches. They even looked into the
hollow, but a spider-so Stafford says
had spun web over the entrance, and
Of course the Indians took that as
proof that nobody was hidden inside.
Three days and nights he lay con-
cealed, without food, and worse yet,
without clothing-fo for he had stripped
while swimming the river-till nature
could stand it no onger He crawled
out of his den, and determined to give
himself up to the first persons he should
meet. These happened to be a party
of Tories
God bless you, Amos" said one of
them, Glow came you here in this con-
ditloD?" They gave him food and cloth
ing, and on the second night he es-
capped. The next morning he reached
the American camp, to which he brought
the first news of the defeat and massa-
ere at Wyoming. Youths Companion.
