The two drummers were sitting in
the Office of Chicago hotel, des-
canting upon the manners of the
clerk, who did not altogether please
them, when man came in and the
erstwhile naughty clerk became all

"Look at him, now, will you?"
said one; ''he's polite enough to that
party: | guess it must be the head
clerk"
Not much" dissented his COM

"Or the owner Of the house. Sup

preached the clerk. in suppliant at

"Yes, sir"
In five minutes Robert entered his
presence, The boy was clad in a
salt Of black, and his face was grave
and sad. The death of his father,
his only relation of whom he had any
knowledge. had weighed heavily upon
his feelings, and he moved about the
house in a listless way, with little
appetite or spirit
You sent for me, SIR" he said, in
terrOgatively, as he entered.
"Ies, Robert, take q seat. | wish

The boy obeyed, and looked in
Quiringly in the face of Paul Morton
to see what he had to communicate.

we should speak together OF your fu-

Robert, in some disappointment.

A SINGULAR ADVENTURE.
How . Sailor Wore himself out SWIM
ming in Shallow Water.

The second mate Of a Lake Huron
propeller had singular adventure off
Point aux Barques on his first trip.
They had been towing a yawl, which
somehow got adrift and the mate see
ing il nearly mile away, volunteered
TO swim after it if the captain would
anchor until his return. This was
agreed 10, and the mate started on his
swim. For quarter of an hour, says
Golden Days. it was fun, but then the
swimmer began TO get weary, The
boat was drifting ashore and still
more than a mile away. The mate
turned on his back. foated swan
"dog-fashion," and on his side, and
tried every other way to rest himself,
but all the time Kept getting weaker.
The poor fellow kept feebly NOV
ing his arms and legs, until finally his
strength gave out, and, with a despair
ing cry, he sank 10 the bottom. To
his intense surprise, he found that the
water was only four feet deep. OF
course, he ought TO have been CRATE
full, but instead of that he waded
ashore in towering rage at his own
stupidity. lie got the yawl, and when
he reached the ship the captain said:
"You COMPOUNDED fool. didn't You
know there was a mile and half of
shoal water all along this coast?'

A BAD MAN,
Who Was Prom Bad A1e, and who
Wanted Gore Badly.

Wanted Gore Badly.
When Woodward-avenue patrol
man arrived at the foot of the ave-
nue. at 9 o'clock one night last week
he found in waiting a tall. cadaver-
ous-looking chap with his hat drawn
down over his eyes and sort OF tip
toe expectancy in his general de-
meanor. He at once stealthily ap-
preached the officer and hoarsely
whispered:
"DO you want 10 live an hour
longer on the face OF this earth?"
"Yes, sir; two or three of them"
replied the officer as he backed
away to size his man up.
Then for heavens sake look out
for HIM"
"WhO do you mean"
"He's here and bin here all day.
Wonder is that he hain't broke loose
and killed two or three men before
this
Then there's some one around
who's going TO break loose?" quietly
asked the officer.
"Hush-not so loud. He may
Jump on you any minute"
who is the lie you refer tor
Dad man-bad man from Bad
Axe. Bin here all day lookin' fur a
row. Jest chankin' his teeth and
foamin' at the mouth. lie won't be
able to hold himself much longer,
I'm afraid
"And if he breaks loOse?"
Then look out fur gore. I've
seen him loose two or three times
and | know what he kin do. He
haint got no more mercy in his
heart than tiger"
Perfectly reckless as TO con-
sequences, is he?"
Perfectly. He'd tackle man as
big as house, and the nan he
tackles is goner in three minits.
Jest slams and bangs and chaws and
the man is dead. I've bin waitin'
here to civ You pinter. II you
hain't got wings you'd better borrer
a pair and fly"
This bad man from Bad Axe-is
he about your size?' asked the
officer without betraying any par
ticular emotion.
jest about my size and heitn
And has the same dangerous APP
pearance?"
jest about the same or a little
more dangerouser."
WELL said the officer as he spat
on his hands and reached out for
neck and hip hold, i've been want
ing to meet that man from Bad Axe
for the last two months. and now
that I've met him | shall proceed
to"
And he lifted the man on high
and whirled him around his head
and cracked his heels against the
wharf railing, and finally let him
drop with a "ker-chugn on the
planks and asked:
"Well, has the bad man from Bad
Axe had enough?n ga I'LL.
PLENTY, plenty" said the man
as he got up.
'Got all through chawin' and
chankin' ?''
"All through, sir"
Then | guess you'd better make
tracks"
Exactly. Here they are"
And he flew up the avenue and
whipped into Woodbridge street with
what seemed TO the Detroit Free
Press man cloud Of dust whirling
around his coat tails and rising up
to mingle with long, black hair.

With golden balls from heaven at nlght,

Whose watery hills belch angry foam.
Which laps upon the rocky steep,
And gallant ship on nearing home

With rills along the infant shore
