The RustIing of the Leaves.

From Leslie's Weekly.
There is something sort of cozy when the
leaves begin TO rustic,
las the boys go tramping through them
in the hollows of the street,
Or hold down some laughing playmate
though he gives them quite tussel-
While they cover him completely with
Dame Natures windingsheet.
I can taste the wholesome flavor of the
frost in nuts and apples
When 1 hear the dead leaves whisper
that their summer work is done;
And feel the bracing presence of the ice
king as he grapples
With the steaming lakes and rivers, and
enchains them every one.
Then a picture of the hearth-side rises
bright andelear before me
Such pleasant, home-like picture, of a
biting winter night
And longing for my boyhood, warm and
wistful, rushes Ger me-
For the little farmhouse kitchen and
the pine floor sanded white.
When the autumn leaves were falling and
the frosty nights came early,
How we loved to draw up closer to the
wood+fire's cheerful blaze,
Watch the flame eat out the maple, with
rs hedIl SO Velneu ana curly
And sit spellbound by the stories grand
pa told of battle-days!
Yes, they all come back to cheer me
happy days that L remember
When L hear the leaves a-rustling as the
school-boys scuff1e by;
And l think there's something coy In the
gloom of bleak November,
For the hearth-fire of my boyhood
paints picture on the sky.
James Buckham.

According to our dispatches yesterday
there was another assassination in the
parish of Tangipahoa, La, on Sun
day night. The name of the man
assassinated was S. B. Mullen, a
stranger, who was guest at
the hotel in Amite City. Mullen stepped
from the office of the hotel to the piazza,
and was shot to death by a concealed as
sassin.
1t has been only three or four days since
Lawyer Reid was shot to death by four as
sassins in the same town, in broad day
light, just as he stepped from the court
house. These two assasinations are not
the only murders that have been commit
ted in the parish recently. There have
been so many that the parish is known as
Bloody Tangipahoa.
1t is apparent that if the good people of
the parish wait for the sheriff to capture
the assassins there will not be peace in the
parish very soon. The law-abiding peo-
Pile will have to seek homes elsewhere.
We do not mean that the law-abiding resi-
dents should form a lynching party, but
we do mean that they should lend the Of
ficers moral and material support. They
should leave nothing undone to bring the
murderers to justice. They should make
it understood that murderers cannot live
in the parish. If they should make their
influence felt the bad element would stink
away from public view and would finally
leave the parish. AS long, however, as
the law-abiding element is willing to toll
crate crimes of violence, Tangipahoa will
be the scene of such horrible murders as
those which have occurred within her i'm
its within the last few days.

Tit For Tat,

lie was intent upon his newspaper when
the conductor came along and stopped In
front of him, says the Chicago Post.
The conductor stopped down to get a
better look at his face, and said: Fare,
please"
The man with the paper paid no atten-
ton and finally the conductor tapped him
gently on the shoulder.
DID get your fare?" asked the con-
ductor, as the man with the paper looked
up.
Now, if there is anything in this world
that has a tendency to make a man who
has paid his fare get angry it is to have
the agent of the corporation to whom
such fare was paid come along and ask
him if he has paid it. 1t may be all right,
but it always seems as if there was an
inference there somewhere that some one
is trying to beat the road Thus it hap
pened that the man with the paper replied,
rather sharply:
You ought to know"
ooh, it's all right, sir,' explained the
conductor, hastily. mo intention to Of
feud you know. 1 merely wanted to make
sure"
Then he retreated to the platform,
while the man with the paper returned to
his reading.
A few minutes later the man with the
paper went out on the platform himself,
and just before reaching his corner he
gently tapped the conductor on the arm,
even as the conductor had tapped him.
Did you ring up my fare?' he asked
There were immediate indications that
the conductor was getting mad. He tried
to say something, but only spluttered
ooh, it's all right" the man with the
paper FASTENED to explain. "No intention
80 offend, you know. l only wanted to
make sure
Then he swung off the car, and when
he reached home his wife detected traces
of a faint smile on his face.

Dollars For Tears.

An Auburn business man has been prid-
ing himself on his success in getting rid
of book agents, but the other day the wool
was pulled over his eyes by a female can
vasser, says the Lewiston Journal.
She came into his store and tried TO con-
vince him that he wanted to buy her book
and have the reading of several magazines
thrown in. He told her on the start that
she couldn't interest him in the publica-
tons not doubling, however, that she was
making him a very liberal offer. She talk
ed awhile and he again informed her that
it was no use to waste her time. But
she kept on with her speech. Finally he
started for the back shop, saying that he
had to write some letters.
AS he left her the good woman burst into
tears. whats the matter?" inquired the
kind-hearted storekeeper.
Matter" she replied "why sir I've
been canvassing all the forenoon and ev-
erybody has put me off just as you have.
Oh, dear, what am I to do. Everybody
seems to be unwilling to subscribe for
my books I was told by the company
that these books and magazines would sell
well, and that l could make from So to IS
a day
She made further talk of the same kind
and the storekeeper finally said that he
didn't want her books, but if she was
really in need of money he would give her
so cents. And as he said this he threw 80
cents down on the counter. She refused
to take it, saying that she wasn't Deepen
dent on charity. The storekeeper argued
that by keeping the goods she would be
just so much better off. She dried her
tears and said that she could not take the
money unless the storekeeper took some
thing in exchange, and she persisted in 1t
so long that he finally consented to take a
couple of her pictures. She thanked him.
and then after further attempts to sell
him $3.50 worth of books went out. Later
in the day he inquired at several adjoin-
ing stores if they had seen the woman
book agent, and he found that she had
worked the same racket everywhere else
shedding real tears at every place. He
had been fooled, but he had the consola-
ton of knowing that there were others.

Craved Permission to Change His
Mind

Mind.
No man is better known or more gen.
orally believed in the city in which he
lives than Prof. Adam Hendershott, says
the Pittsburg Dispatch His conversa-
ton IS quite devoid of bitterness. Only
once was he ever known to say anything
indicating even the slightest trace of i'll
temper. Travelling downward on a subur-
ban trolley line to call upon a friend he
asked the conductor 10 transfer him 10 the
city street cars at a certain point.
Soon afterward the car stopped, and
he was surprised to see outside the very
friend he was seeking. He started to
leave the car, but the conductor accosted
him.
You can't change for your car here"
he said, brusquely. GO back"
The professor passed him, taking no no.
tice.
Can't change cars here, I tell you,'
snapped the conductor again.
Prof. Hendershott. deep in conversation
with his friend, merely waved his hand
to signify that the car might go on with
out him.
Here. you Old jayr cried the man
with the brass buttons, angrily; don't
I tel you that you can't change cars at
this station?'
The good old professor answered with
severity: But I can change my mind at
this station can't 70"

Those two German missionaries killed
in China must have been among the most
highly esteemed and valuable subjects of
Emperor William -Four hundred square
miles Of land, naval station and harbor,
and 600 600 marks, seems to be the price
which China must pay, not to mention
sundry decapitations of various Chinese
directly or indirectly connected with the
affair in which the missionaries lost their
lives. POSSIBLY this incident may furnish
some ciew as to why European govern
ments are so anxious for missionaries to
push into heather lands.

Gen. Weyler and the Madrid press prob
ably should not be too roundly condemn
ed for talking as wildly as they do about
a war between Spain and the United
States. 1t should be borne in mind that
there are in Spain, just as there are in this
country, a number of rabid jingoes, and
there, as here, the jingoes can vote; and
also there as here, the politicians con
slider it good policy 10 say things calcu-
lated to please the lingo spirit. Those
who are doing the ranting, however, are
persons who could not be held responsible
if trouble should come.
