OTTAWA FREE TRADER; SATURDAY, APRIL 1, 1882.

Isabel ahaenMnindedly.
1 a ttA International train that left yi-ster-P
y lor Pan Antonio, there was a darkey who
pt sticking his head out ot tne car wimiow.
'Keep your Head inside," said the conductor,

"Whaffor?"

"This, sir." expounded old Daddy Winterbot-
torn, holding up a bottle; "this, sir, is the finest
cm thHt comes into tne marKet."
"It looks clear," commented old Uncle
Wotherspoon, who had dropped In to see his
friend for a tew moments. "I guess that's pret
ty cood Bin.
"Try some," said Daddy Wirtrbottom,
holding out the bottle and a gluss. "It won't
hurt ye. 15 less your soul, man, there isu't a
headache in a gallon !"
"No,I don't suppose there is," conceded
Uncle Wotherspoon. "Wall, here's health!"
and down it went.
And they drank and drank until they were
both sick at their stomachs, and when they
Darted it was w'th fuddled expressions ol dis
tincuished consideration aud mutual promises
to have it out on a similar basis some other
niuht.
Anu yet these two old lnuocents had only
been drinking a preparation of salt and raiu
water which Mrs. Winterbottom had put up
as a hair restorative, and about which the only
suspicion of gin was the label ou the bottle:
"None genuine without signature." lirook

Who ever heard of any one being punished
tor stealing a watermelon ? It was tried ouce
in Tennessee, three or four years ago. Good
old Judge Frazier, of the Davidson and Hutu
erferd Circuit, was presiding; an unlucky
negro was the prisoner : a very young lawyer
was delending him; twelve good men and
true were in the box. There was no doubt
that the prisoner had stolen the melon; the
proof against him was as clear as noon-day.
The attorney called no witnesses whatever,
but simply arose ond said; "May it please
your honor and gentleman ot the jury, my
client is charged with stealing a watermelon.
He does not deny it. But this is a new crime
for our courts. I have stolen watermelons
myself; the chances arc that your honor has
stolen watermelons; and, gentlemen, I'll agree
to set 'em up If there's a man on that jury
who hasn't stolen a watermelon !" The judge
jerked up his head, took oft' his spectacles,
and looked with a startled but smiling stare
upon the young scamp; the jurors nudged
each other and snickered; the spectators guf
fawed; but it is needless to say that the brief
argument for the defendant was a successful
one with the honest jnrymen.
One Moue Lincoln Story. Just after the
terrible disaster of Cold Harbor, the president
more than usually depressed and alluded by
the tremendous responsibilities of his position,
started out for one of his solitary, self-communing,
after-dinner walks, for which he was
noted, and which were, doubtless, the really
only undisturbed moments of his care burd
ened life.
This time his abstracted ramble led him in
the direction of the canal that runs parallel
with the potomac river, some half mile south
of the White House grounds.
Wandering along its banks in this aimless
way, Lincoln came to a smoky little cabin, at
the door ot which an old colored man was
paring potatoes.
The president stopped, and taking it for
granted that his face would be unknown to
this humble laborer, he sat down and engaged
him in conversation.
With that patriarchal readiness of opinion
peculiar to aged darkies, he responded to
"Father Abraham's" questions, and delivered
many sage and oracular dissertations on the
conduct of tne war, the duties of the executive
and public affairs generally.
The president listened not without gaining
an idea or two from the homely discourse
until it was quite durk. As he rose to go the
old man set before him a bowl of milk and
some hoe cake, which Lincoln who told the
story himself- says he ate with real relish,
the first lood he had enjoyed for many a long
day.
"Goodbye, uncle," he said, at last, "I'll
come to see you aeain."
"Do so, Massa Liukom, do so," said the old
man, hospitably.
" A'hy, do you know met" uid the presi
dent. "Yes, indeed, honey ; knowed yer was Old
Abe de berry minute I set eyes on yer. You's
mighty good man, Massa l'residen; but I seed
yer once at yer noggeration and I neber could
torglt yer dis quick. You'ee a powerful gord
man, but the Lord made you diefful home
in de face, and dat's afac'!"
Handling i Tenueaaee Crowd.
A ';rhigan man who haa a patent wind
mill v( t down to Tennessee last fall to see
what he could do among the farmers of that
state. Reaching a town in the central part ot
the state, he went to a dealer in agricultural
implements and stated his desire to erect his
machine and call attcution to it.
"Well, it can he done, I guess," was the re
ply.
"But how had I best proceed ""
"AVell. you kin put her vp over on the hill
thar. I don't know who owns the ground, but
if you treat the crowd, I guess no one will
object."
"Very well."
"Next Tuesday is market day. aud there'll
be heaps of folks in town. You want to be
around early and treat the crowd."
"Yes."
"Set the old thing going, and ask the boys
over to drink something."
"Just so."
"You want to stand on a bar'l and make
ome explanations, of course, for it will be
new to most of 'em. But don't talk too long.
Make it about ten minutes, and then treat the
crowd."
"Yes."
"If you have to talk any more, tell 'em there
is another drink ahead."
"I see."
"If the old man Jones comes la with his
boys there'll be a row in the crowd. They
shoot on sight. Keep your eye peeled, and it
you tee any signs of "a row, ask the whole
crowd out to drink."
"Yes, but " ,
"Look out for dog fights. If one takes place
you can't hold the boys a minute. Keep your
eye on the canines. If you see a yaller purp
begin to bristle up, sk the crowd to step over
and moisten."
"Yes, but by that time the whole crowd wjll
te drunk," protested the agent.
"Martin it will, and that's what you want, ot
course. That will give you a chance to skip
out and take yout life along with you, and if
you make a stop anywhere within a hundred
miles I'll send the windmill by freight pro
Tided there's anything left to send! Nothing
like knowing how to handle a Tennessee
crowd, my friend. Did you ask me out to take

gent beast gave a snort of terror, and sprang
so suddenly to one side that the helmeted
knight in whose womanly-white hands were
gathered the reins was yanked violently over
the brake and most of the air knocked out of
his system ere ho could regain his position
abaf t the dash board and again head the terri
fied charger in the direction of Western Av
enue. "By my halidom!" quoth the knight, "St.
Julian must have seen an oat."
It was true. Some roystering son of Blue
Island avenue, going homo with many a flag
on of beer beneath his corselet, had with waste
ful hand thrown by the roadside no less than
several oats, at siirht of which the neighing
steed which had so gallantly breasted the brow
of the hill at the opening of this chapter was
stricken with the terror mat always comes to
beasts when that which they have ne'er before
beheld comes suddenly within the vista of
their gaze.
"Curses on the horse! he has broken my
susnender." exclaimed Kodcrlgo O'Kourke,
eighth Duke of Wexford, as he wound the hues
around tne crane anu spiiccu uis puuis wuu u
8tr.,nS- ... ... ., ,
In a sorucr ot tne car bus aiyrue naineway,
her pure, passionless face with wine-red lips
pressed closely to tne w muow. rne is pure as
the driven snow, and chaste as an ice wagon
Two years ago she was the petted idol of dot
ing parents the pampered child of luxury
and unlimited confectionery; but one soft,
sensuous day in the summer, wnen tne neids
were lautrhinif in the golden glory of an am
ple harvest, her father had come home and said
to her in tear-choked tones: "We must sleep
In the woodshed tonight, my darling; this
house is no longer mine. All that I possessed
has been lost forever."
Mvrtledid not question him, did not seek
to intrude upon the sacred precincts of his
grief, but went silently away and blew iu her
last quarter tor icecream.
Geome W. Hathaway did not long survive
the hore race that swepr away uis ioriune, ana
in the fall they buried him in the sun-kissed
cemetery beyond the beer garden, away from
the noise and turmoil of the irreat city. But
"Myrtle, although accustomed to every luxury
that credit could purcnase, was possesseu u
brave heart and large leet, anu nau gone
forth to battle with the world and earn tier
own living. "I will gain my daily bread,"
she said, but after learningthat making seven
teen shirts for 8 cents was the most lncrative
operation open to her, she hail concluded to
change her subscription to the trl-weekly.
On the opposite seat oi tne car irom jnyrue
sat Bertha ltedingote. The girls had moved
in the same social circle in tne aays wnen
Mvrtle lolled idly in the lap of luxury, but
now that she sat on one knee Bertha did not
recognize her. But Myrtle cared not for this.
"Let Berlba flaunt her prosperity and grena
dine polonaise in mv face if she will," she had
said, "the time may come when I shall again
be heading the procession, and if it does 1
shall have a pool or two on myself."
f
"Leavitt street," said the conductor.hls voice
arousing Myrtle from the reverie into which
she had fallen. Both cirla left the car. On
the corner, his choke me-to-death collor look-
ne weirdly white beneath the htful glared
the West Side tras. stood Kthelbert de Courcey
"Good-by John," the boys usud to call him,
because they said that name was easier to re
member, and had a Cook County time time to
lie was a good youns man almost too
good to be true and very rich. His wealth
made him the object oi mucn maneuvering uu
the part of designing mothers with marriage
able daughters, but thus far he had escaped
unscathed. Both girls knew him. Bertha ad
vance with a w itching Ogdcn avenue smile on
her lace, as ll to claim hts company in ner
homeward walk, but he heeded her not. Ad
vancing quickly to Myrtle's side, he said :
'May 1 see you home, Miss nainawayy '
'Yes." replied the cirl. the pink suffusion of
a blush hustling rapidly over her cheek as she
took his arm.
On the way to the humble pic-foundry where
she foucht the bedbugs they talked upon the
current topics of the day the cable cars, how
Maud s. would drive to the pole, ueecjiers in-
dicrcstiou. etc.: but presently Lthclbert's voice
sank lower, his tones became more tender, and
he told the blushing gin the story ol bis love
of how lie would tain make her his West
Washington street bride. When he had flnu li
ed, Myrtle looked up into his eyes those eyes
so tender and true and with a little happy
sob called his bluff. From "(hilt it Siirker'
