anied by his W staff.

CHAPTER XXI.
PRETENDING Reality.

The chain-gang had been working
in the street not far from Miss MI
nerva's house, and Lima, Frances, Billy
and Jimmy had hung on her front
fence for an hour, watching them with
eager interest. The negroes were
chained together in pairs, and guard
ed by two, big, burly white men.
Lets US play chain-gang," suggest
ed Jimmy. 3
Where we goin' to git a chain?"
queried Billy; at won't be no fun
'thout a lock an chain"
II can get the lock and chain of m
Sarah James cabin"
"Yo' mama don't low you to go to
her cabin" said Billy.
my mama don't care If I just bora
q lock and chain; SO / m going to get
it."
81 m going to be the perlice Of the
gang" said Frances.
"Perlice nothing. You all time talk
ing bout you going to be a perlice,"
scoffed Jimmy. Il m going to be the
perlice myself"
mo, you are not" interposed Lima,
firmly. BILLY and I are the tallest and
we are going to be the guards, and
you and Frances must be the prison
ers."
well I amt going to play 'thout !
can be the boss Of the niggers. 1t q
Sarah James chain and she 8 my
mama's cook, and I'm going to be what
I please"
81 II tell you what do" was Billy's
suggestion, well take 1t turn about;
me an Lima IL frst be the perlice an
y all be the chain-gang, an then we
II be the niggers an y all be the
bosses"
This arrangement was satisfactory.
so the younger boy climbed the fence
and soon returned with a short chain
and paddock.
Billy chained Jimmy and Frances to-
gether by two round, fat ankles and
put the key to the lock in his pocket
I'VE must decide what crimes they
have committed" said Lima.
Frances done got rested fer shoot.
in craps an Jimmy done got rested
fer 'sturbin' public worship" said the
other boss.

hour Of exposure.
mo, go at once, and be sure and

Miss Minerva .spled the paint the. In
slant he made lis second entrance
and Immediately inquired. How did

sweet, attractive, winning smile.
Paint pertec's little boys feets." he
said, IAN keeps 'em rom gittin' hurt

Miss Minerva laid down her fork
and gave her nephew her undivided

"Yas M" was his prompt response,
