Bobby's Unfortunate Delay

Bobby had been neatly dressed in
homer of his fifth birthday anniversary,
and when he came in with his clothine
dirty and torn, mother knew he had
been in q scrap. She had often told
him that he must learn to take his
own part. This he would not do, and
now she decided to punish him.
Bobby became very indignant and
said: "Well, you see, ! just told the
boy that l wasn't ready to fight, and
when 1 got ready he was settin' on me-"

"It's very strange" mused Mr.. Mont
morency, there doesn't seem to be
anything the matter with him, and yet
he cries and cries from morning till
night. I've said to him, Montague
Montgomery Montmorency, why can't
you be good and quiet like the other
babies". and he only cries more than
ever. Whatever shall we do about it?"
Mr. Montmorency put his hands in his
pockets and looked at the ceiling and
thought. At last he drew a deep sigh,
drew his eyes from the ceiling and his
hands from the pockets and remarked
gloomily, IT suppose Wen have to con-
suit his fairy godmothers."
"I never thought of that" said Mrs
Montmorency.
"I've thought of it a dozen times"
said Mr.. Montmorencv. but couldn't
make up my mind to the idea of having
those seven--er-estimable ladies here

Hey. Johnny! I'll give you a Bee for
a News " called Bill. Alright" Johnny
said. as he handed Bill a News in ex-
change for a Bee. Just then a gentleman
came along asking for a Bee, so John
ran up and sold him his. 1t seems to
me- he said to himself, that The Bee
sells better than any other paper. so 1 think
j will go get a few and try my luck" He
went up to The Bees head newsboy and
got twenty-five Bees. John was soon back
to his post, and in less than fifteen
minutes all but one of the papers were
sold. AS 1t was rather dull just then, he
sat down on the curbstone to look over the
last paper he had. AS he was glancing
over the ads, his eye struck the one above.
AT first he didn't pay much attention to
IT,, but after he had read it over twice, it
dawned on him that was the place that
he wanted. SO taking a little book out of
his pocket, and borrowing a pencil from
Bill, he copied the ad and put 1t carefully
away in his pocket just as d lady came
up and got his last Bee.
That evening Johnny called on Martin
Dollar,
He had washed and combed himself care
fully before he started. and although his
clothes were rather shabby, he looked
very neat.
When he had told Mr.. Dollar what his
errand was, he was told to tell all that
he knew about himself. John said. MY
story is not long. l was born "A years ago
last March in Omaha, l do not know IL
my parents are dead or not. 1 have no
other name except John, or no one that
/ know Of who would object to my joining
this troupe il you wish to accept me-" As
John said this he looked Mr.. Dollar straight
in the eye. When he had finished speak
ing, hir. Dollas grasped his hand and said
heartily, Il am sure you will fill the place
admirably Johnny, and if you are ready
you may so with US tonight Johnny
thanked him and said he would go get his
few belongings.
on the way back he stopped TO thank
Bill for giving him The Bee, in which ne
found this piece OF good luck.

the crop at 13,500,OOO, on the basis

We're Caught In Fire Trap Ii
Cup Two Miles From

Only Little Assistance.
Many Escaped Flames Only To Te
Drowned. One of The worst
Disasters In History OF
Chicago.

Chicago, Jan. 21.-Forty seven bod
les have been recovered from the tun-
mel disaster The dead will number
sixty Several bodies are at the bot
tom of the lake and may never be re-
covered. Search for them, however
began early this morning. The coro-
ner set about the work of empanel-
ling a jl1sg this morning, and will
make a complete investigation. The
cause of the fire is unknown, but it
was preceded by an explosion OF
some kind by few minutes. But
few of the bodies recovered are in
any way recognizable. 1t was the
worst tunnel disaster in years.
The destruction of the crib, two
miles from shore, was the worst ca
lamity known in Chicago except the
Iroquois theatre fire and not except
ing the cold storage fire of the
worlds fair. Trapped in midlake be
tween fire on one hand and stormy
ice-foed lake on the other, the men
were almost helpless.
Dynamite stored in the shaft be
meath the crib threatened further de-
struction. The very life savers and
rescuers who went to the scene were
in constant danger that the ernbers
would drop below on ten tons Of dy-
Mantle stored there. A number of
men we're in the tunnel at the time
and are believed to have been lost.
Awful scenes were pictured by the
survivors. These were rescued by
the tug t. t. Morford, of the Dun
ham Towing company and the fire
boat Michael Conway of South Chi
cago.
