EUGENE FIELD FIXED HIM.
Accepted a Loan and Faithfully Prom

'The late Eugene Field was notori-
ously improvident, his chronic hard
upness being sort of byword among
his intimates, an old friend of the
poet said recently. ''But he managed
to get good deals.of fun himself out
of the paucity of his own resources.
Once at one of those semi-public func-
tions held in saloon where every man
is host who has the price and every
man guest who has thirst Field,
as. usual, went broke. There happen
ed to be hanger-on in the crowd, one
of those whose consi ierable ambition
is to say they have shaken hands and
touched glasses with celebrity. Call.
ing the poet to one side he said
Now, I hope you'll take no offense,
but l understand you to say you had
run short of money. If that be true,
would be glad to oblige you with 6
ten. How dare you snapped Field
affecting great indignation. Il dom
even know your name. Beg your
pardon a thousand times, responded
the other; Il meant no offense, l as
sure you. l thought you might b.
able to use the money. Please forge

WHERE HIS FAITH WENT.

Cincinnati Inquirer:
John, or Peggy" Ryan, the Adonis
of fire company No. 1, went fishing
in the Little Miami river the other
day. He was told by "a native that
nothing but liver would tempt the fish
to bite. He was five miles from any
butcher shop, but was not discouraged,
and walked to Milford and bought a
quantity of it. He then walked back
to the fishing ground and was tired
out when he reached camp after the
walk of ten miles.
He determined to fish Immediately.
The camp dog, very nice and friendly
canine, was invited to get into the
skiff with Ryan while he -baited the
trout lines. Peggy" was fond of the
dog. The animal was in the bow of
the boat, and Ryan had his back
turned to it. The liver was in that
part of the boat also. 1t took but
three minutes for the pup to envelop
the liver, and when Ryan started in
to bait up he found he had none.
With head hanging low sson his breast
and his eyes starting from his head
in distress he rowed back to shore.
The dog wagged it's tail in glee and
tried to get solid with peggy, but
it's pleasure changed to pain when
Ryan planted one of his No. los in it's
slats. The-last seen of the dog it was
streaking over the river bank full of
discontinue and liver.
