A Story That Was Not Told,

All accomplished interviewer went to
get the story Of an old hermit who lives
on little lake in the upper part of the
state where only few clearings break
the monotony of forest. A delicate ap-
proach was made to the main subject
aud then the six footer, with long white
beard and hair, was asked if he had a
family.
Certainly" came the response.
"I've tried to play my proper part in
the world just like any other man who
has an idea that he was put here for
something"
"Where are your folks?''
"Back east, where left them. My
wife and five children have fine home
on big farm. To be accurate, it's one
of the finest in the state. -
'Do they ever come to see you?''
"They were all up here about four
weeks ago. Brought their bedding with
them, hunted, fished, visited and had a
good time generally. My youngest boy
wants to take up some land and make a
farmer of himself"
"Do you ever intend to go back where
they are to make your homer
"No. I like it here; they like it
there. What's the sense of either them
or me putting in the time where it's
not enjoyable?'
Ibid you have an trouble with your
wife?'
The old man sat and smoked and
seemed to be in deep study.
Trying to put the story together?'
asked the interviewer.
''No, young man. I was just having
mental debate whether I'd throw you
through the window or give you three
minutes to get off the place. -
In less than half the time the hermit
was alone.-Detroit Free Press.

A Story Of Thackeray.

Dean Farrar gives the following rem
iniscence of Thackeray in The Inde-
pendent: Dining with him at the
house Of DR.. Butler, l remember that
he spoke of many things. but the only
remark that specially recall was one
about himself He said that he had re-
Gently sat at a dinner next to an emf
nent tragedienne, now dead, and that
she had overpowered him with ecstatic
compliments A few days afterward he
had sat next Jenny Lind, and the great
singer, with a frankness which delight
ed him, said that she had not read a
line Of one Of his writings and knew
nothing about them. OF the two ladies,
he greatly preferred Jenny Lind and
enjoyed her frank indifference muck
more than the fulscme adulation.

THE RETIRED BURGLAR.
His Curious Experiences In . House with
Cracking stairs.

Creaking stairs.
"You know how the stairs puff up"
said the retired burglar, latter you stop
using 'em nights? You crowd 'em down
close together, solid, treading on 'em
all day long, and then when you let up
on 'em the fibers Of the wood lift up
again, and the stairs seem to swell.
You know how they creak sometimes
and snap little when you go down 'em
first in the morning and some of the
steps yield a little under the tread?
That's them settling down into place
again.
II love to hear 'em in the morning.
1t seems kind of like the stairs waking
up and speaking to you as you go along
down. But don't like to hear 'em at
night And at the time go about
they've had chance to do considerable
putting, and no matter how velvet footed
a man may be he can't lessen his
weight very we'll, and so I learned ear
~ to tread near the wall or near the
banisters going up stairs, and not on
the bow in the middle. The creak, or
the little soft swapping, that sounds so
pleasant in the morning and that no.
body wouldn't notice then, sounds
mighty loud at night, when everything
is still. fanybody was awake, you know,
you could hear it from one end of the
house to the other. To be sure, it might
not alarm anybody, because there's 9TH
er sounds in house at night-sounds
that just make themselves due, sup
pose, to changes in temperature Boards
swell and shrink and shift little, and
you might hear little snap somewhere
in the house any time Of night. But
always hated to hear the stairs creak
when I was going up 'em, all the same,
because I always thought that as likely
as not it would wake up somebody, and
that l should find somebody sitting up
i'll bed looking for me when I looked
into the door of room, and, as mat
ter of fact, that did sometimes happen.
II looked one night, after wretched
pair of stairs into half lighted room
where l saw a man, sitting up in bed,
over ON the other side of the room, and
looking plumb at the door that was
standing in. AS told you, l was al
ways on the lookout for just this thing,
but this man surprised me, for all that.
He sat there in bed all keyed up, and
looking square at me. l could see him
perfectly plain, and l knew he could
see me just as plain, and l expected ev-
cry minute he'd find his voice and be-
gin to boiler
'But instead of that he threw the
clothes back off his legs and swung his
legs around out Of bed and stood up He
put his right hand out to locate chair
that stood by the head of the bed, and
then he started for the door, hands out
a little OH each side of him, and feeling
out a little on both sides and sort of
ahead of him as he came along
"Humph! Blind. He'd heard the
noise and was going to look for it. I
might have stood there and slugged him
easy as he went by, but didn't want
no rastle with blind man. just went
out and left him there looking. New
