All Things Considered, He'd Prefer

All Things Considered He'd Prefer
a Goat
Little five-year-old Tommy Winston
had been worrying his father about
purchasing pony. The little fellow
felt that he needed some kind Of a
playmate. Tommy's father assured
him that it was impossible for him to
buy a pony. 1t would cost too much,
and, besides, he would have to build
a stable.
"And you'd have to buy hay, too,
wouldn't you?" chimed in Tommy.
There was a lull in the converse
ton. BY and by, thinking to appease
the troublesome youngster, Mr.. Wins
ton said:
"Some day the Lord win send you
a little brother, Tommy, and then you
will have all the playmate that yea
will want"
WELL said Tommy, II wish the
Lord would hurry up. cause I'd rather
have a brother than pony, anyhow,
I think"
Some months later Tommy's papa
told him that his little brother had
come from heaven. Tommy was de-
lighted. When they allowed him to
20 in to see the new arrival, little
Tommy was laughing and chuckling
in high glee. He wanted to kiss the
baby; he wanted to hold him in his
RI
out for stroll. When he found that
he could not do any of these things,
then he asked a thousand questions.
Did the Lord have many little babies
in heaven?" Was all the little babies
angels?" did all the Lords little ba-
bies have no teeth?" and So on.
Five or six days after the coming
of the little brother Tommys pleasure
began to moderate somewhat. The
nurse had told him that he must stay
out Of the room if he couldn't keep
quiet. Not an hour passed during
the day but that she would open the
door and haloo "Sh-sh! Don't make
so much noise. You'll wake up the
baby"
1t was not long before Tommy de-
ci0ed that the little brother was more
of curse than a blessing. He thought
he would take his troubles to his
father. One evening he went into the
library and climbed up on his fathers
knee.
Papa" he said, II tell you I don't
want my little baby brother, after all.
| think I'd rather have pony!"
Before his father could recover from
his establishment Tommy went on:
"Why don't you take little baby
brother and swap him for a pony?"
Il couldn't DO that, my son." said
Mr.. Winston.
Tommy thought q while and then
said:
We'll maybe nobody would give you
a pony for him, but don't you think
somebody would let you have at least
a goat If you was to let EN- have lit
tie brother ?"-Lippincott's Magazine.

The Carson Appeal linotype has been
on a jag, judging from an item which
appeared in that luminary Sunday morn
ing, SAYS the State Journal. 1t reads as
follows:
sSenator Williams of Churchill is
spending a few days i'll this city, hav-
ing business before the u. 5. court.
and placing him in II position to bea
man among men again. In the con-
dition that he has been in the past
year he has been useless to himself
and the public at large"
At first this looks like the hardest
kind of a slam for Senator Williams, but
a little consideration on the part of
those acquainted with the eccentricities
of linotypes, and the general cussedness
of the beasts, will perceive that the ma
chine began to talk about Mr.. Williams,
managed to keep up the conversation on
the matter III hand for three lines, and
then got switched onto the case of an
other State Senator OF Nevada who is
now doing time for selling whisky to In
dams. The linotype is Il great machine
and is doing much Tor the advance OF
civilization, but some Of its Vagaries
would indicate II disposition to help the
undertakers more than any other peo-
pie.

DEAD BODY FOUND
William Bush Killed by Train Near
Valley Greek in Selma

Selma, June 25.-( Especially 1.-THE body Of
William Bush, a white man about % years
old was found early this morning lying
beside the Southern railway track close
to Valley Creek at the western limits
of the city. The front part of Bush s
head had been mashed in. 1t Is thought
that he was killed by the passenger from
Akron that arrived at 11:45.
Bush and a brother. who had been
working at Estelle cotton mill, were to
have left Selma last night for their home,
Columbus, Miss. The two brothers with
friends had been drinking and after
reaching the union depot William Bush
decided he would go back. Later he was
found asleep on the track by two negro
men. He would not go home, so they
moved him to one side and left him.
After being moved from the track he
evidently got back on it and was killed
by the Akron train. On him there was
$47 and a pint of whisky. His remains
were carried to Columbus this afternoon,
where they will be buried. After invest-
cation the coroners jury brought in a
verdict that he had met his death by a
train on the Southern railway.
