The Bad Boy Writes About the Fun

Washington, D. C.-My Dear Old
Skate: I didn't tell you in my last
about the fun we had getting here.
We were on the ocean wave two days,
because the whole country was flooded
from the rains, and dad walked the
quarter deck of the Pullman car, and
hitched up his pants, and looked
across the sea on each side of the
train with field glass, looking for
whales and pOrpoises. He seems to
be impressed with the idea that this
trip abroad is one of great significance
to the country, and that he is to be
q sort of minister plenipotentiary,
whatever that is, and that our coun
try is going to be judged by the rest of
the world by the position he takes on
world affairs. The first day out of
Chicago dad corraled the porter in a
section and talked to him until the
porter was black in the face. I told
dad the only way to get respectful
consideration from negro was to ad-

Reward to the Worshiper.

If we get no good out of the sermon
we are more to blame than the preach
er. If We had gone into the house of
Goo in the spirit of Worship, no matter
what the sermon, we would have re-
turned to our homes with blessing.
The church is a place to worship God,
not to hear what the preacher has to say.
But when the sermon is listened to in
the spirit of worship, God will always
use it as medium through which He
will reach us and speak helpfully to us.
If we approach it in the spirit of criti-
cism we have shut the door of our hearts
against the entrance OF good. Even a
child may tear the most beautiful rose
to pieces, but in doing SO it has gained
nothing and ruiued the rose-United

vocate lynching and burning at the
stake, for the slightest things, so when
| our porter was unuusally attentive to
young woman on the car dad hauled
him over the Goals, and scared him so
by talking of hanging, and burning in
kerosene oil, that the negro got whittier
than your shirt, and when he got away
that old man with the red nose and
the gold-headed cane was as dangerous
rs he talked. l told him he was my
dad, and that he was walking dele
gate of the Amalgamated Association
of Negro Lynchers, and when a negro
did anything that he ought to be pun
ished for they sent for dad, and he
took charge of the proceedings and
saw that the negro was hanged, and
shot, and burned up plenty. But told
him that dad was crazy on the subject
OF giving tips to servants, and he must
not fall dead when we got to Washing
ton if dad gave him a $50 DILL, and he
must not give back any change, but
just act as though he always got $50
from passengers. Well, you'd a dide
to see that negro brush dad so times
day, and bring towel every few
minutes to wipe off his shoes, but he
kept one eye, about as big as an onion,
on dad all the time, to watch that he
didn't get stabbed
The next morning took dads pants
from under his pillow, and hid them
In linen closet, and dad laid in his
berth all the forenoon, and had it out
with the porter, whom he accused of
stealing them. The doctors told me
must keep dad interested and excited,
SO he would not dwell on his sickness,
and did, sure as you are foot high.
Dad stood it till almost noon, when he
came out of his berth with his paja-
mas on, these kind with great blue
stripes like fellow in the peniten-
tiary, and when he went to the wash
room l found his pants and then he
dressed up and swore some at every
body but me. We got to Washington
al right and l thought l would bust
when dad fished out nickel and gave
1t to the porter, and we got out of the |
car before the porter came to, and the |
first day we stayed in the hotel for
fear the negro would see us, as told |
dad that porter would round up a gang
of negroes with razors and they would |
waylay us and cut dad all up into |
sausage meat. Dad is the bravest man |

SON.
give any personal letters to his
friends, the kings, but that dad could
tell any of them that he met that he
was an American citizen, and that
would take him anywhere in Europe.
and then he got up and began to show
his teeth at dad again, and dad gave
him the grand hailing sign Of distress
of the Grand Army and backed out,
dropped his hat, and in trying to pick
it up, he stepped on it, but that made
it look better, anyway, and we found
ourselves outside the room, and lot
Of common people from the country
were ready to go in and talk politics
and cat shooting.
Well, we looked at pictures, and saw
the state dining room where they feed
so diplomats at time on mud turtle
and champagne, and a boy about my
size looked sort of disdainful at me,
and told him If he would come out
side would mash his jaw, and he said
l could try it right there if l was in
a hurry to go, and was starting to
give him swift punch when a detec-
tive took hold of my arm and said
they couldn't have any scrap there,
cause the presidents son could not
fight with common boys, and l asked
him who he called common boy, and
then cad said we better go before war
broke out in country that was lilly
prepared for hostilities on a large
scale, and then told a detective that
dad was liable to have one of his spells
and begin shooting any minute, and
then the detectives all thought dad
was one of these president assassina-
tfonists, and they took him into a
room and searched him, and asked
him a whole lot of fool questions, and
they finally let us out, and told us we
better skip the town before night. Dad
got kind of heavy-hearted over that
and took notion he would like to see
ma again before crossing the briny
deep, so you will have the Joy of seeing
your little angel again soon, This
weakness Of dads made me hot, for I'm
looking for warm time in New York
and old Lunnon, but dad was obsti-
nate, so home we go for a little visit
before risking our precious lives in an
ocean palace car. So long.

Well, this morning dad shaved him
self, and got on his frock coat, and his
silk hat, and said we would go over
to the white house and have a talk
with Teddy, but first he wanted to 90
and see where Jefferson hitched his
horse to the fence when he came to
Washington to be innogerated, aud
where Jackson smoked mis- corn cob
pipe, and swore and stormed AROUND
when he was mad, and to walk on the
same paths where Zachariah Taylor
lacked, Buchanan catched it, and Lin
coin put down the rebellion, and so We
walked overtoward the white house, and
l was scandalized. stopped to pick up
a stone to throw at dog inside the
fence, and when / walked along be-
hind dad, and got rear view Of his
silk hat, it seemed as though I would
sink through the asphalt pavement,
for he had on an old silk hat that he
Wore before the war. the darnedest
looking hat I ever saw, the brim
curled like a minstrel show hat, the
fur rubbed off in some places, and he
looked like one of these actors that
you see pictures of walking on the
railroad track, when the show busts
up at the last town. think a man
ought to dress so his young son won't
have fit. tried to get dad to go
and buy new hat, but he said he was
going to wait till he got to London,
and buy one just like King Edward
wears, but he will never get to London
with that hat, cause tonight will
throw it out Of the hotel window and
put a piece of stove pipe in his hat
box.
WE'LL sir, you wouldn't believe it, but
we got into the white house without
being pulled, but it was close shave.
cause everybody looked at dad, and
put their forefngers to their fore
heads, for they thought he was either
Turin country. The detectives got
around dad when we got into the ante
room, and began to feel of his pockets
to see if he had a gun, and one Of
them asked me what the old fellow
and l told them he was the
greatest bob cat shooter in the west,
and was on his way to Europe to In
vite the emperors and things to come
over to this country and shoot cats on
his preserve. Well, say, you ought to
have seen how they stepped one side
and waltzed around; and one Of them

STARVING MEN.


STARVING MEN.
Then she describes some Of the scenes
she witnessed. Hundreds OF starving
men were standing for hours waiting
for enough work to supply them with
food and lodging As the price OF two
hours labor they receive a good meal
and bed for the night II will be seen,
therefore, that the relief given
Is not pauperi2ing, The police
expressed themselves as satisfied
on that point and declared that the
large majority Of those relieved weru
real working men and not loafers
Some OF them have been unemployed
for months through no fault Of their
own. Trade Is slack and they suffer In
consequence
She points out the inadequacy Of the
relief work undertaken by the various
borough councils since they are able
to give employment only to a restricted
number each of whom must be an in
habltant Of the borough that employs
him. Thus she says, "a great nuc-
tuating population which has wan
dered from place to place In search OF
occupation Is In no way assisted. In
this class | saw many old soldiers, la
borers, plumbers and able artisans
and It Is these men whom the Church
Army helps Every day 1900 OF such
homeless men have been saved from
spending the night in the streets,
frozen and starved
1T is impossible, she adds, ito see the
terrible suffering caused by the cold
and the scarcity OF labor without feel

APPEAL FOR FUNDS.
Surely" she concludes, such good
work must not be allowed to suffer
for lack OF funds. / therefore, pray
all those who feel disposed to help al
leylate the terrible distress which ex-
lists at our very doors to do 80 through
the medium Of the Church Army, for

work for which there Is the utmost
