TAIL man with heavy muStaChe and
nronzed face, who halted and looked
down on the child. as CULVER did on the
Lllllputians; then he exclaimed:
bless my soul, child who are you,"
The reply was:
Il am toxey de Kid, sir Shine? Only
> cents"
And thereupon he unslung his kit, and
taking the aood natured expression OF the
man Tor consent. ne began TO black his
already well-pohshed boots.
All right, young one this is the third
time to-day that my boots have been
olacked but so ahead" And the man
laughed and lit a cigar.
After the task was completed the
STRANGER drew The child 10 one side, and
handing him dime instead Of the pro-
posed nickel, he learned from him the
llttle he knew about himself Among the
things told by the child was thename and
residence of Mrs. Roberts
II you meet me here tomorrow, my
lad, at this hour, l will give YOU another
JOB on my boots at the same price, said
the man, to which agreement the boy
readily assented.
On the following day, true to his prom
Use, thu tall man appeared in the same
place al the same hour. and addressed the
BOY, not as FoXeY de Kid, but as james
Lester, whereat the youngster was
much surprised
Instead of having his boots BACKED the
tall man reached down. and taking the
chlld's hand, led him to one of the neigh
boring benches and made him sit down
beside him, while he spoke as follows
My boy, l live away out in the west,
in place called Dakota, of which l am
sure you never heard y F'oxey de Kid
shook his head and compressed his lips
10 indicate his entire ignorance, and the
man continued; Il am not poor, and peo-
pie call me rich Two years ago l had a
little boy who died but his image has
been always in my heart, and when saw
you here Yesterday you reminded me
so much Of the dead child that my hear5
rose to my mouth. Now, | shall not call
you t'oXey de Kid, for your true name, |
learn, is James Lester, and strangely
enough, my boys name was James, too
James Godfrey, but we always called him
Jimmy, and thatls what shall call you "
"All right, boss" said Foxey de Kid,
who had no objection to the name he was
called, so that he found it profitable.
The tall man placed his arm about the
child S neck, spoke of his western home.
| and asked if he would be willing to so
with him there. where he would have a
good home, plenty of food, and pony to
ride, and, more than all love OF love
| the child knew nothing, but he had very
clear idea of the other inducements, and
so readily consented.
Within two days James Lester, entirely
| disguised by a thorough washing and a
complete suit of well-htting clothes, was
whirling westward on the cars with the
tall stranger.
Every Christmas after this old Mrs.
| Roberts received as a present a check
from the west signed by James Godfrey,
and a letter accompanying it, from your
friend James Godfrey alias 't'oxey de
Kid"
And, in his Dakota home, "Foxey de
Kid has grown into a splendid young
man, tall as his foster father and honored
and loved by all who know him. And all
this came about through "Chance Ac-
Quaintance."

A CHANCE ACQUAINTANCE.
A Story of ''Foxey de Kid" a C1eyt
New York Bootblack.
From The New York Advertiser

From the New York Advertiser
His many acquaintance of the same
calling called him ''Foxey de Kid
Foxey, perhaps, because his hair was in
clined to be red, and de Kid, on ac-
count of his being so very small and child
like. The child true name was James
Lester, and at this time he was about 70
years of age, though he did rot look more
than or 3. His mother having dieQ
when he was an infant, and having no rec
objection of his father, he adopted the
sOubriquet of the streets, and spoke of
himself as did his ass )ciates.
An old woman named Roberts, who
claimed to be the boys goumoJher, and
who took in washing and did chores
whenever she was sober, exercised a sort
of guardianship over him. Apart from
her failing, Mrs. Roberts was very kind
hearted, mended the boys rags and gave
him a corner in her wretched Rivington
street room to live in, and now and then
she divided with him her strong tea and
bread and butter, and nights when the
boy was cold she insisted on sharing
with him her gin.
Foxey de Kid began selling papers as
soon as he could count pennies and was
able to shout the word "extree" in his
shrill. childish treble. In the SUMMER
season he seldom went to the RivingtoA
street room, but would quietly sleep in
the city hall park under the trees. or, il
driven from there by the rain and the raw
wind, he would crawl into a doorway or
sLea over the iron ratings, through
which came the heat from the pl ess
rooms Of the papers he sold, and there,
cuddled up like dog, unmiudfuI of the
pounding of the engines and the roar Of
the voices below, he would sleep the sleep
OF the innocent, if not of the Just.
When about nine years of age, finding
that Mrs. Roberts was making inroads on
his little capital Of pennies, on which he
depended Tor the purchase of papers. and
of sandwiches and bananas which he
bought at odd hours, he gave up going
near her, and became a street arab, with
out home, parents or friends.
That the 10y was naturally shrewd
may be inferred from the fact that. by
the time he was ten, he discovered that
he needed more clothes and better food
and that to get these things he must have
more money, and so do more work. Bya
pinching economy that would have been
praiseworthy in one much older. he saved
enough to buy a backing OUTFIT, and when
this came into his possession he felt him
self to be as rich as any capitalist in the
city
Bright-eyed CHEEKY and alert was
Foxey de Kid, despite all his disadvan-
tages, and at midday, when the demand
for the morning papers was gone and the
afternoon papers were not yet out. he few
back and forth through the CITY Hall
park, scanning the feet rather than the
faces of the men he met, and shouting:
"Shinel shine, sir Only nickeli"
