HE WAS LOST.

If any one had told him he was
drunk ne would not have resented
it but would have made an effort
to maintain his equilibrium and
dignity long enough to explain
t tat he was only a little oozywoozy.
He realized that he lived at 2O6
Irvington street, and that his resi-
dence was on the right hand side
as he wobbled along homeward.
The uncertain light of the early
dawn. combined with thu blear I'M
his eyes rendered it necessary for
him to stop in front Of. every house
and gravely brace himself against
the ratings until he could focus
his eyesight on the number.
Finally he identified his house,
but after arguing with himself for
a couple of minutes he came to the
conclusion that he was just woozy
enough to make mistakes possible,
SO to be absolutely certain he bal
anced himself against the front
fence and studied the number on
the transom. Instead of 206 he
saw 500. He rubbed his eyes and
looked again. but the number had
not changed. 1t was still 500.
Then he wondered how it happen :
ed that he had got on the wrong
side of the street and three blocks
too far out, made zigzag across
the street and started back, but
before he had walked three blocks
he came to the end of the street.
The weary pilgrim was .bewll-
dered. He couldn't understand it,
but getting his directions, shaped
his course out the street on the
right side again and kept on until
he came to 500 again. He studied
it from every point of view, even
a
trying co stand on his head to read
it, but it perversely remained 5O9.
Utterly bewildered he sat down
on the steps and waited till po-
liceman came along.

HE GAVE HIM A MATCH
And That is How Two Old Navy Chums
Met After Tears

Small things sometimes bring about
peculiar results. Edward Dinner, who
will manage the dining hall of the Rock
Island here, was about u years old
when the war broke out. He was go
ing to school, and when he began to
read stories about Father Abe and Sc
cession, Fort Sumpter and the Union, a
country one and insepera.ble, and all
such as that, the fire Of patriotism be-
gan to glow in his young heart. He
saw young men come in from the coun-
try to the town; he heard the fife and
the drum and then again he saw the
same young men dressed in blue going
away with muskets on their shoulders.
He, too, wanted to save the Union. He
could not carry a musket, but he
thought he could join the navy, and so
he did. The nlan-of-war that he was
assigned TO did some hard fighting.
There was no other person on that ship
of his size and age but little Jack Riley.
For four years the two boys bunked
together and were side by side during
all the battles. lodging the same shells
and doing their duty as bravely as any
two souls on that battleship. After
the war they separated and lost trace
of one another for over thirty years.
About two years ago Ed Dinner was in
the smoking room OF a sleeper. He
would get off at the next station, which
was PhillipSbUrg- A tall, well dressed,
princely fellow, with his hair slightly
gray, entered the smoking room ana
said to Mr.. Dinner, please give me
match" Both wore the Lions Claws OF
q Shriner and, of course. were friendly.
What is your name?" asked Riley.
"Chmer, sir"
Ed Ohmer?"
Ed Dinner, sir"
God bless you, Ed; my name Is Jack
Riley"
Both embraced with one impulse and
Jack Riley had just time to exact a
promise fro Ed Dinner TO call and see
him sometime at Denver. when the
train stopped at PhillipSburg.
The winter days were awful long to
Ed Dinner. for in the spring he wanted
TO go TO Denver to spend a week with
his old chum in battle. April came and
with a light heart ne started for Den
YER, with a thousand "reminiscences on
his tongues end that he wanted TO ex-
change with Jack The train left the
prairies and began to climb the ascent
TO the mountain metropolis. and still
Ed thought Of some new story for his
friend. The great capital OF the Rock
les came in sight and on a bright April
morn Ed Dinner started out for the
home Of his old friend. Arriving at
about where he though Riley lived, he
met on the sidewalk a beautiful blue
eyed little girl Of with golden ringlets
and a bright but sad face. There was
something about the child that was ia
miliar. but her sad face depressed his
spirits.
Little girl he said. "ca7 you tell
me where Mr.. Jack Riley lives?"
she raised her blue eyes 10 Heaven
and said. Papa Is up thee
II a knife had been driven through
his body he could not have felt greater
pain on learning that Jack Riley was
buried the previous day. He took ';he
child in his arms. kissed her fifty times
and mingled his gushing tears with The
pearly drops that Jrickled from the
blue eyes, down over the sad face OF his
friends child
That was bright day in Denver. but
