ONE OF RILEY'S STORIES.

An Anecdote by the uoosier Poet to Show
tho Power OF Music.
The Hoosier poet, Whitcomb Riley,
has brought new story from In
diana with him regarding the in-
Auence of music. He said recent
ly to a reporter in his genial manner:
Strange what an influence music has
upon a man. Especially the kind that
steals upon his ear in accents sweet and
low. Now, there's Bill Peasley, for in
stance. He wasn't much of q singer.
yet he caused quite disturbance by
singing an old gospel hymn. Right
across from my house is a grocery
store. One day last July a man placed
ladder against the grocery store and
tried to put up sign nearly twenty feet
long over the window. There was an
element of intense interest in this pro-
ceedlng to thirty men who gathered
around the ladder and watched the
man as he stood on his precarious
perch Pretty soon Bill Peasley came
along. He joined the group, putting
his hands behind his back in a law
manner, ande began softly whistling
the Sweet BY and By The air was so
soft and persuasive that the man next
10 BILL took 1T up and began whistling
tenor. Then another joined in and
still another until the whole group
were whistling. by this time the man
on the ladder had become interested.
lie began to quicker, but no sound came
from his lips. His attention was SO
taken up by the sign that he couldn't
form his lips Alright. 1t is a difficult
job to whistle and put up sign at the
same time. He had been struggling
with the sign and tune for several min
utes, and was standing on one foot on
the ladder trying to hang one end of
the sign on a nail The situation was
further complicated by his effort to
come in with his bass whistle at the
proper time, when his foot slipped and
down he came, with the ladder and
sign over him. That was the effect of
one of the sweetest hymns in modern
music. IN. Y. Advertiser.
