OLD TIME STAGE DRIVERS.
They Were Mighty important Men In
1her teme Towns.

'hey Were Mighty important Men In
Their ttome Towns.
In tile days Of lhe stagecoach
the driver of the stage was the big
gest man in the place where he llv-
ed, barring none. lie was always a
man OF great strength and bravery,
aggressive, resourceful and well in
formed on ell topics because Of his
continual contact with people and
his life in the channels of communi.
cation. Ills services commanded
good pay, and the man whose
daughter could lead the stage driver
into matrimony considered himself
lucky. When married the driver
usually established his home some.
where conveniently on his route, Sc
that he would have chance to stop
in and see his family on each trip,
with an occasional stay for a day or
so at the home.
Thomas Wilson of Washington,
whose boyhood home was in Co.
lumbiana county when the stage
was still common, writing for the
Ohio Historical society's publica-
ton, says:
"The wagoners ate at the table
with other guests, travellers, gentle
men, ladies and what not, for they
were just as good as anybody elsc.''
Mr.. Wilson was referring in this
more particularly to the drivers Of
the freight wagons that operated
over the same roads and at the same
time with the passenger stages, but
what was true of this class of driv-
ers was true of the stage drivers as
well.
The freight was carried in huge
Conestoga wagons covered with sail
cloth. Each horse carried bells at
tached to an iron bow connecting
the hames over the withers, and
each driver had his own peculiar
bells, so that ii was easily possible
for the people living along the
route to tell from the sound what
particular drivers outfit was pass.
ing.
1t was the rule Of the road that
no driver could pass another who
was in trouble-stalled or broken
down-without doing all in his pow
er to get him out Of the difficulty.
The same rule applied to those in
private conveyunces except that a
man who had "A lady with him might
pass on without stopping.
1t came to be established as a
rule of the road that the bells OF
the driver who was thus helped out
Of the difficulty became the prop
erty of the driver that assisted him
AS a kind of salvage.-Columbus

Julius Caesar" Talma performed
the part of Brutus, and when he
knelt to Caesar and said, "Give us
back our liberties" the acclamations
all over the house were so great
that nothing could be heard on the
stage for many minutes. Bonaparte
meanwhile was taking snuff in his
most violent way, which he always
did when agitated. The next day
he sent orders that that play was
not to be acted any more.-Iournal

Holloway walked quickly to the
very edge Of the station platform.
and leaned as far out as he could
without falling.
"You are in trouble. Won't you
let me help you?" he pleaded ear
nestly.
"Why, thank YOU" she faltered.
81 don't know think, maybe"-
Suddenly she threw up her head
and laughed. How that laugh went
to Haloway's heart! "Well, the
fact is" she continued, chat was
SO sure of meeting my cousin here
that / only slipped a nickel in my
glove-and-and-well, you see, /
have no car fare"
Then they laughed together.
That one word cousin" was as
balm to a wounded heart. Halo
way knew this cousin well. lie had
boarded at the place where Halo
way himself lived, and he had left
him in jacket and slippers, pipe in
hand, lounging in his favorite NOR
ris chair. 1t was pure case Of
"forgot."
ooh, if that's ALL" said Halo
way, 81 can just come over and eS-
cort you myself to where you wish
to go"
The girl drew herself up with
dignity. 81 would not bother YOU"
she said, "bnt if you would be so
kind you might fold your card about
a nickel and toss it across, and !
could return it in the morning"
ooh, certainly, if you prefer%
said Holloway.
A happy thought struck him. In
pretense of hunting IA card he step
ped directly under an electric light,
raising his head so it might shine in
his face.
"Dick Hallowayw he heard her
cry. He turned, grinning. She
stamped her foot on the edge Of the
platform. GLOW dare you speak to
me-" she cried, "after / told you
never to again.
"My dear girl, beg to remind
you that you spoke first"
"WeIl, I'm sure | didn't know it
was you"
81 expect | have changed great
deal in the last two weeks" said
Holloway, with pathetic emphasis.
The girl tapped her foot and said
nothing. "In the meantime" he
resumed, "may ask, do you still
want that nickel, or may | come
over to your side and take you
downtown to dinner?"
"No, indeed, you may not! But
/ suppose I'll have to take the
nickel, and as | have to go over
there to get a train home you may
meet me downtairs and have the
pleasure of paying my fare for the
last time"

vent my going out on the same

81 thought you were waiting for
some one?"
81 was waiting to see the chap
you were waiting for"
Jealous ?"
81 own it; also that is what allied
me two weeks ago"
"You admit that" asked the girl,
"and all the rest-that you were
wrong about the whole thing?' she
asked again.
"That | was wrong about the
whole thing" said Halloway. 81
