KIDNAPPED BY A TARPON.
The Adventure Of a Small Boy Who Went
Fishing In Louisiana Bayou.

The little son of the ager. Of the South
ern Pacific company, statio,\i at Bayou
dcs Allemands, had an adventure one day
while fishing for the gay and ever biting
catfish The little fellow was out in the
river in a fiat bottomed boat, and while
handling his line suddenly became aware
that something out of the ordinary was at
the other end of it, The line, which he
was holding rather slackly, became appar-
emily alive, and in a moment was whlz-
zing through his fingers as If Old Nick
himself was on the hook. The boy endeay-
ored to stay its outward flight, but to no
purpose, and he had the satisfaction of see
ing the end reached in quick order For
tunately for the remainder Of the story,
the end was securely fastened to the boat,
and as the line tautened out the little
craft began u series Of maneuvers ON the
surface of the river and the boy, becom-
ing alarmed at the unusual occurrence,
yelled for assistance.
The craft went on with the flood. In the
one end the boy on the other powerful
something or another, which, content
with giving a sample of it's skill as a head
on propeller Kept its bulk hidden beneath
the water. And still the boy kept on yell
ing and the boat a-going, until several
men on the bank of the bayou, hearing the
cries, embarked in q skiff, and armed with
steel harpoon-they had been there be-
fore-started for the boy and the boat and
the something another, still under the wa
ter, but occasionally breaking the surface
as if it wanted TO fly. When the rescuers
reached the Tying craft, one of them seized
the tauteaed fish line, sententiously re-
marking, "Grande ecaille," began to
shorten in, and in about five minutes 9
hard work had brought the capture alol
side, where it began cavorting and plung
ing, throwing the water in clouds. An
other of the men, seizing the harpoon,
watched an opportunity, and in few
minutes more darted the steel into the
cleaning sides of the fish, for such it was

TWO LITTLE WORDS.

Two little words that trembled on my tongue,
And still those syllables remain unspoken;
Two souls that fate in one accord had strung,
Could we the cruel silence but have broken;
Two little words, on which our futures hung,
And yet we parted and betrayed no token.
Two little words, TO utter which I'd striven,
But still those syllables remain unspoken-
We'd but to taste the bliss 50 freely given,
Could we the cruel silence but have broken !;
Two words, that might have made this earth a
heaven,
And yet we parted and betrayed no token.
Ny vain regret my hours Of peace depriyes,
For still those syliables remain unspoken;
That Joy We're ours that life from love derives,
Could we the cruel silence but have broken
Two little words that might have linked two
lives,
And yet we parted and betrayed no token.

A CHICAGO CHARACTER.
Uncle Zig White, His Truthfulness, His
Costume and His Epitaph.

Every child in North Clark street knows
Uncle Zig White. He is the most familiar
character between the river and North av-
enuc. His right name is not Zig White
but when anybody calls him by the other
name he feels embarrassed and out of place
Uncle Zig is respected mainly because of
his scrupulous honesty and truthfulness
He is fond Of sitting on salt, barrel and
telling about his adventures According to
the stories told by him at various times,
he was contemporary of George Washing
ton, Andrew jackson, Abraham Lincoln
and General Tecumseh Sherman He has
been through the Revolutionary Mexican,
civil and various Indian wars and always
escaped without a scratch, although he
was always in the front ranks. Aside
from being a soldier Uncle Zig was one of
the pioneer settlers of California, New
Mexico, Nevada, Kansas and Oklahoma.
From time to time he has made great rep
utations in certain regions as powerful
religious exhorter. 1t is said that he can
-ccite any passage in the Old Testament
by having the first few words given him.
Uncle Zig's favorite costume consists of
a tall black silk hat, a long black frock
coat, striped white vest, wide check
trousers and white shoes. He wears at the
same time a red, white and blue shirt to
testify to his patriotism and over this a
pale blue necktie with a moonstone stuck
in it. A heavy piece of lath for cane and
big chew of tobacco complete his best
attire. Many attempts have been made to
induce Uncle Zig TO take drink of liquor,
but he has refused steadily to be led into
temptation. However, he confesses that a
long time ago he was wicked" and that
during those time he could count chickens
in the dark at 90 PAGES, and that he could
even tell their breed at that distance.
Uncle Zig has been frugal during his de-
olining years, and with the money he has
saved he has purchased lot in Oakwoods
cemetery, near where the Confederate dead
lie. On the tombstone which will be erect
ed ovor his grave he will have engraved
this inscription;
Shun the wicked; choose the right;
Be a man like me.-Zig White.

even In the making up, and mist or damp

Is much moro expensive and really less at

rial lies in its simplicity, and if expense
and elaboration are desired they are more
appropriate in connection with some finer
sort of goods.
After a winter as long and severe as the
last the approach of cold weather again is
not as welcome as 1t sometimes Is. Au-
tumn and early winter fashions, now an
nounced strike chill to the heart, and
one would rather retain longer the filmy
summer gowns that have been so charm
ing a characteristic of the departing season.
An illustration is given of fashionable
and elaborate cape. 1t is composed Of a
yoke embroidered with spangles, from
which falls q flounce of tuile embroidered
