. HIS PA BUSTED.
From Peck's Sun.
" Say, can't I sell you some stock in a
silver mine," asked thebadboyof the
grocery man, as he came in the store and
pulled from his breast pocket a document
punted on parchment paper, and representing
several thousand dollars stock in
a silver mine.
" Look here," says tho grocery man, as
ho turned pale, and thought of telephon
ing to the police station for a detective,
"you haven't been stealing your father's
mining stock, have you. Great heavens,
it has come at last! I have known all
' tlio time that vou would turn out to be a
burglar, or a defaulter, or a robber of
some kind. Your father has the reputation
of havinga bonanza in a silver mine,
but if you go lugging his silver slock
around ho will soon bo ruined. Now
vou ko ncht back home and put that
I stock in your pa's safe, like a good boy."
" Put it in the safe ! O, no, we keep it
in a box stall now, in tho barn. I will
trado this thousand dollars in stock for
two heads of lettuce, and get pa to sign
it over to you, if you say so. Pa told
mo I. could have tho whole trunk full if
I wanted it, and the hired girls are using
! tho silver stock to clean windows and to
kindle fires, and pa has quit tho church
and says he won't belong to any concern
that harbors bilks. What's a bilk ?" said
tbo boy, as ho oponed a c.mdy jar and
took out four sticks of hoarhound candy.
"A bilk, said tho grocery man, as ho
watched the boy, Is a fellow that plays
a man for candy, or money, or anything,
and don't intend to return an equivalent.
You are a small sized bilk. But what's
the matter with your pa and tho church,
and what has the silver mine stock got to
do with it.
" Well, you remember that exhortor
that was hero last fall, that use tc board
around with tho church people all
tho week, and talk about Zion, and laying
up treasures where tho moths wouldn't
gnaw them, and they wouldn't got rusty,
and where thieves wouldn't' pry off tho
Hinges. Ho was tho one that used.to go
homo with ma from prayer meetings,
when pa wa down town, who wanted
to pay off tho church debt in solid silver
bricks. Ho'tf.tho bilk. I guess if pa should
get him by tlio neck ho would jerk nine
kinds pf revealed religion; out of him. O,
pa' is hotter than-lie wd3 vi-Hen
took the lunolv off of hjm.
strike a pious man bit his pocket-book,
ty hjurtfj hian Tua4, fellow. pxyMapd
sang liko an1 ang), arid' boarded' around
like a tramp. He stopped at our house
over a week, and he had specimens of
rock thai '.vere chuck full of silver and
trold, and he and pa used to sit up at
night and look at it. You could pick
pieces of silver out of the rock as big as
buck shot, and ho had some silver bricks
that were beautiful. IIo had been out in
Colorado and found a hill full of the silver
and he wanted to form a stock company
and dig out millions of dollars. lie
didn't want anybody but pious men, that
belonged to the church, in the company,
and Ilhink that caused pa to unite with
the church so suddenly. I know he was
as wicked as could be a few days before
he joined the church, but this revivalist,
with his words about tho beautiful beyond,
where all shall dwell together in
peace, and sing praise, and his
of that Colorado mountain where
tho silver stuck out so you could hang
your hat on it, converted pa. That man's
scheme was to let all tho church people
who were in good standing, and who had
plenty of money, into the company and
when the mine Tjogun to return dividends
by the car load, they could give largely
to the church, and pay the debts of ail
tho cli inches, and put down carpets, and
fresco the ceiling. The man said he felt
that ho had been steered on to thai, silver
mine by a higher power, and his idea was
to work it for the glory of tho cause. I le
paid he liked pa, and would mako him
vioo president of the company. Pa he
bit like a bass, and I guess he invested
five thousand dollars in stock, and ma she
wanted to come in, and she put in a thou-and
dollars that she laid up to buy some
diamoml ear-rings, and tho man gave pa
a lot of stock to sell to other members of
the church. They are all into it even
tho minister. He drew his salary a head,
and all of the deacons they come in, and
the man went back to Colorado with
about thirty thousand dollars of good
pious money. Yesterday pa got a paper
from Colorado giving tho whole snap
away, and the pious man has been spending
the money in Denver, and whooping
it up. Pa suspected something was wrong
two weeks ogo, when he heard that the
pious man had been on a toot in Chicago,
and he wroto to a man in Denver who
used to get full with pa years ago when
they were both on the turf, and pa's
friend said the man that sold the stock
was a fraud, and that he didn't own no
mine, and that he bun owed the samples
of ore and silver brick. from a pawn
broker in Denver. I guess it will break
pa up, tor a while, though he is well
enough fixed with mortgages and things.
But it hurts him to be took in. lie lays
it all to ma. lie says if she hadn't let
that exhorter for tho silver minogo home
with her, this would not have occurred,
and ma says she believes pa was in partnership
with the man to beat her out of
her thousand dollars that she was going
to buy a pair of pious diamond ear-rings
with." O, it is a terror over to the house
now. Both tho hired girls put in all tho
money they had, and took stock, and they
threaten to sue pa for arson, and they are
going to leave to-night, and ma wilfhave
to do the work. Don't you never try to
got rich quick," said tho boy, as ho peeled
a herring and took a couple of crackers.
" Never you mind me," said the grocery
man. " They don't catch mo on any
of their silver mines. But I hope this
will havo some influence on you, and
teach you to respect your pa's" feelings,
and not play any jokes on him, while ho
is feeling so bad over his being swindled."
"0, I don't know about that. 1 think
when a man is in trouble, if he hasagood
little boy to take his mind from his
troubles, and get him mad at something
else, it rests him. Last night we had hot
maple syrup and biscuit for supper, and
pa had a saucer full in front of'him just
a steaming. I could see ho was thinking
too much about his mining stock, and 1
thought if there was anything I could do
to take his mind off of it, and place it on
something else, I would bo doing a kindness
that would bo appreciated. I sat on
tho right of pa, and when ho wasn't looking
I pulled tho tablo cloth so the saucer
of red hot maple syrup dropped off in
his lap. Well, you'd a dido to see how
quick his thoughto turned from lnsfinan
clal troubles to his physical misfprtuney.
There was about a pint of hot syrup, and
it went all over his lap, and you know
hbV hotuieted nupld sugar is,, and ltfiw
it sort of clingflitoany.thing. Pa jumped
up and grabbed hpld of his pants
logs to pulUhen) atyaYfrbm liissolf, tfhd
ho danced around ana told met to tun
tho host) oil lilui. and thort he tooK a
pitbherM IbLm &mpM ffiMya
his pants,, nd he' said the-condemned
old table was getting so rickety that a
saucer wouldn't stay on it, and 1 told pa
if he would put some t.r on his legs, the
same kind that lie told me to put on my
lip to make my moustache grow, the
syrup wouldn't burn so, and then he
cuffed me, and I think he felt better. It
is a great thing to get a man's mind off
of his troubles, but where a man hasn't
got any mind, like you, for instance "
At this point the grocery man picked
up a fire poker, and the boy went out in
a hurry and hung up a sign in front of
the grocery, "Cash pain for fat Dogs."
