SLEEPING AND WAKING.
My wife had lefi her home to seek
The glow I worshiped in her cheek,
Like Persian old: my sky had paled ;
A letter every day I mailed,
And oiten said, in cheerful vein,
“The baby slept all night again.’
All hallowed by her tears and prayers,
He stayed with me; it lessened cares ;
If he, the pasting, slept, I knew
My dove would slumber sweetly too,
And so I wrote her now and then,
“The baby slept all night again.”
One morn he languished at my side,
Death sick, and with the day he died,
And day with him. It was my will
That she I loved be happy still;
So wrote I in my wonted strain,
“The baby slept all night again.”
But when, in turn, she fondly wrote,
Her pet names using in her note,
With artless talk about the bed
Of him who slept so cold and dead,
I had the bitter truth to pen,
“He sleeps, to wake no more again.”
And when upon my breast she lay,
And sobbed her precious bloom away,
And grief met grief, while on the dead
We thought, within his narrow bed,
I said, and saw it ease her pain,
“He wakes, to sleep no more again.”
TITER
OLD AB.
The Miners Helped Him for His Wife's Sake.
“Of all the onery, wuthless, trifling
fellers ever I knowed sence I war
borned, I'm blamed if old Ab Jones
ain’t the wust. I've knowed some mis-
er’bly shiftless cusses in these yere
diggin’s, but I never run acrost any-
body that could hold a candle to old
Ab, an’ for down right triflin’ness I'd
be willin’ to back him agin creation.”
The miners up in Cool Run Gulch
had just finished supper and were
lounging on the grass, enjoying a
smoke, when old Sandy Scott gave ex-
pression to this opinion.
“Why, Sandy, what's struck ye so
suddent ?’’ Rile Creason asked.
“Reckon a feller don’t have to be
struck so awful suddent to know that
old Ab Jones ain’t no count,” Sandy
replied, rather sharply.
“Reckon not, Sandy. I ’low if a
teller is half-witted he kin size up old
Ab to a ‘t’ on fust sight. Guess thar
ain’t a man in camp but what's fig-
gered him out as purty blamed triflin’.
But by sich a suddent burst on your
part I kinder 'lowed mebby somethin’
had happened.”
» “Happened!” old Sandy cried.
“Hain’t somethin’ happened? Hain’t
it nothin’ when a feller works hard in
the mine all day to have to come
home an’ cook supper jest because old
Ab is offskylarkin’ 'round down thar at
the post, hevin’ a good time? Hain’t
that nothia’, fellers 2”
“Why, yas, it is, of course,” Rile ad-
mitted ; ut mebby Ab has business
to keep him down thar.”
“Business? Reckon it ain't likely as
such cattle as him ’ud have any busi-
ness anywhere, less’n it wuz with the
marshal. This makes three times in
the last month that we've come down
from the mine to find old Ab gone an’
no supper cooked, an’ I'm blamed
tired of it. If a feller pertends to cook
I want him to do it, an’ if he e¢an’t do
it, an’ do it reg’lar, why let im quit.”
There was a chorus of assent. Just +
then the object of comment drew near.
Doffing his old hat he said :
“Boys, I'm sorry I didn’t get back
sooner, but I got a letter from—"'
“Oh, give us a rest on that,” Mart
“cried. “We've heerd sich tales afore.”
“But this is a fact, Mart,” Ab went
on, ‘an’ I want a leetle money fer—"
“Git out, old chap. Yer not goin’
to git no money, an’ yer needn’t think
it. Why, blame it! yer don’t pay fer
ver feed, much less earn money.”
“I’m sorry I wasn’t here to git sup-
per,” Ab protested, “but I got a letter
from home an’ it says my wife is sick
an’ needs money, an’ I stayed down
thar tryin’ to raise ten dollars to send
to her. Aun’ I thought—"
*Wal, yer thought wrong,” Mart ex-
claimed, “if yer cackilated to work us
with that story. Git out an’ clean up
them supper things.”
Ab saw that it was useless to argue
further, acd at once withdrew.
“Look here, boys,” says Jack Bone,
“ain’t it jest possible that there may be
some trath in what Ab says ?”’
“Reckon it ain’t likely,” Mart re-
plied. “Don’t s’pose the old scamp’s
got a wife in the first place, an’ he’s
jest a-tryin’ to work us for a few dol-
lars to spend. My notion is we'd best
give 'im ten hours to leave the camp
in, an’ it he don't gostretch im. He's
a tarnal nuieance here, with his con-
tinverly playin’ off sick an’ wantin’
money fer one thing an’ ernuther, an’
the sooner we git rid ot ’'im the better,
an’ I'm fer notifyin’ 'im to git.”
This proposition being unanimously
agreed to, old Sandy Scott and two
others were selected to go down and
give Ab Jones notice to “skip.” The
evening was warm, and the door of
old Ab's cabin stood open, so that the
men as they approached had a com-
plete view of the interior of the little
room. Old Ab was there, and, with
his hands crossed behind him and his
head bowed, paced the floor in a rest-
less manner, stopping ever and anon to
gaze at some small object which he
held in his hand.
“Humph |” ejaculated old: Sandy,
‘that’s a blamed quare sort o’ doin’s,
shore.” :
“Wonder what he’s got in his hand?”
said Jack Bone.
“Dunno,” replied Sandy. “He
"pears to git a good bit o' satisfaction
outen it, don’t he ?”
“Wal, whatever it is,’ remarked
Mart Barker, “I 'low it ain’t nothin’ to
us, and we can’t ‘stay here all night.
Less give him the notice an’ git back.”
The men came to the door and old
Mart said :
“Ab, we've sorter made up our minds
that we don’t want to have you in thie
yere camp no more, an’ we want you
to git. We give you ten bours to cl’ar
out, an’ if you ain’t gone then, why,
yer know what we'll do "uth ye.”
“What'll ye do?” Ab asked, listless:
ly. :
Y Why, blame it, feller! we'll stretch
ye, 0’ co'se.”
For almost a minute old Ab stood
staring vacantly at the men, then,
without a word, resumed his walk,
while the committee went back to the
camp.
This affair took place in '54, at a lit-
tle mining camp up in Coon Run gulch
over beyond the Sierra Nevada range.
There were not more than a half dozen
men in the camp, and it was at least
fifteen miles from the nearest post.
For six mouths the miners had worked
on a lead, and, at last, after much la-
bor and many discouragements, had
succeeded in locating a good pay streak
and late in the afternoon on which this
| story opens they had uncovered a
pocket of pure gold, supposed to be
worth at least a thousand dollars. Oa
account of it being so late old Sandy
had advised leaving the ore untouched
until morning, saying:
“It'll be perfeckly safe whar it is,
an’ fer my part I'd ruther take it out
in broad daylight, so's we’ll be shore
not to lose none o’ the stuff.”
The others agreed to this after a lit-
tle demurring, and so the pocket with
its rich contents was left unmolested,
and the miners went np to the camp
feeling happy.
The next morning they were astir at
an early hour, and before the sun had
peeped over the line of mountains
that lay away off to the, east they bolt-
ed a hurried breakfast and started for
the mine, never once thinking of old
Ab and the events of the previous eve-
ning.
Old Sandy was the first to enter the
mine, and he had no sooner reached
the bottom than he cried :
“Boys, it's gone!”
“Gone ?’’ they repeated.
“Yes; gone. Ever’ blamed bit o’
the stuft’s gone slicker’n grease.”
The other's hurried down, and for a
little while they all stood about gazing
blankly at the empty pocket.
“Wal, ding my buttons!” Baldy
Perkins exclaimed, “if that don’t nat-
erly tetotally stump my taters.”
“It’s ernuff to stump anybody’s ta-
ters,” said Sandy. “But whar in the
name o’ Sam Hill kin the stuff a’ gone
to mn
Wall, fellers,”” old Mart began, “it
didn’t walk away, did it ?”’
“Reckon not.” ’
“An’ it didn’t fly away, nuther?”
“Guess it didn’t.”
“Then it stan’s to reason that some-
body took it away, don’t it?”
“Course somebody took it away.
But who? Thet's what I want to
know.”
“Wal, figger the thing out in yer
own minds, boys,” Mart went dn, “an’
then say who'd be likely to a’ took it.”
“I have figgered it,” said Sandy,
“but blamed if I can settle on anybody.
Don't see who could a’ done it.”
“Don’t none of you ketch a idy?”
Mart asked. ;
They all shook their heads.
“Wal, I've figgered it, tellers,” Mart
continued, “an’ takin’ it up one way
and down t'other, I don’t make out
that it can be anybody but old Ab
Jones. Thar ain’t nobody else up
yere to a’ took it, and so I 'low, put-
tin’ it all together, thar ain't much
room left for doubtin’ of him,”
There was a monetary silence, then
Sandy said :
“Boys, puttin’ this an’ that together,
an’ it does look purty blamed much
like old Ab might a’got that thar stuff.
You know he was in a great stew for
money last night, an’ arter we give im
notice to leave he jest about robbed
thet pocket an’ skipped. As Mart says
thar warn’t no one else to take it, an’
he’s most doggoned triflin’, shore.”
“Old Ab is triflin’ an’ no ’count,”
Jack Bone said, ‘an’ I don’t deny it ;but
[ don’t hardly believe he robbed the
mine. He's been about yere fer six
months, an’ he never stole nothin’
afore,”
Wal, who else could .t be?” Mart
asked,
“I dunno, I’m shore,” Jack replied,
“but I can’t git it into my head that it
was old Ab.”
Another short silence ensued, brok-
en by Saudy, who suddenly looked up
to remark :
“Wonder if Ab’s gone yit 2’
“Dunno,” said Mart. ‘S'pose we go
an’ see?”
The miners at once repaired to old
Ab’s cabin. They found the door shut
the one little window blinded, while a
deathlike stillness reigned all about.
“He's skipped, boys,” Sandy said.
“Yas, he’s gone,” Mart replied,
“but I "low we'd better look through
the cabin an’ see what's to be seen.”
“Come on, then,” cried Sandy, as he
led the way to the door. “It’s blamed
fortnit for the fold cuss that he did
leave, sartin, ‘er he'd a-been hung in
.mouty short order, shore.”
Sandy gave the door a rude push
and it turned back on its rough wood-
en hinges, A streak of sunlight fell
intc the room, dispelling the darkness,
and after a moment the miners were
able to distinguish objects.
“By jix | boys,” old Sandy exclaimed
“he ain’t gone, after all.”
“He ain’t ?”’ the others cried, crowd-
ing up to peerin. “Where is he?”
“Thar, on the bed.”
“He is, as shore as shoutin’,’’ Jack
said.
“I "low we'll git to strech the old
chap yit. Better git a rope, some:
body.”
The figure on the bed made a per-
ceptible movement, and a moment lat-
er brought his hand before his eves,
holding some small object at which he
gazed intently.
“That's the same thing he had last
night,” said Sandy. “Wonder what it
is?
“It looks kinder like a pictur, don’t
it?”
“Blamed if it don't fellers,” Sandy
said, as he advanced toward the bed
with cautious step.
“What's up ’uth ye?’ Sandy ex-
claimed, giving old Ab a rude shake.
“I'm a-comin’, Liza,” Ab muttered.
“It’s powerful tirin’ climbin’ the range.
A feller has to rest a leetle, but I'll be
har d’reckly.” :
“Humpb!” old Sandy murmured,
“that’s a queer sort o talk. Reckon
your outen yer head, ain't ye?”
“I'm comin as tast as I kin, Liza.”
old Ab went on, “but walkiu’s slow,
an I'm not feelin well, The boys
wouldn’t give me no money, er I'd a
come on the stage. I ain't much
Scount to em, au I only do the cookin’
at the camp, an they think my grub is
pay puff fer that.” .
“What's he gittin through im, San-
dy ?”’ some one asked.
“Blamed if I know. Here's a letter
from somebody. Rile, you got bout
all the larnin thar is in camp, 8'pose
you see what it’s about.
Rile took the leiter and glanced
down the page.
“Fellers,” he said, *‘Ab wuz right.
This is a 1&tter from home, an his wife
is sick. It urges him to come home
at once, as she is likely to die, an begs
fer a sight of him once more afore she
goes.”
There followed a short silence, dur-
ing which the men looked inquiringly
at each other.
“Wal,” old Sandy asked, “what's to
be done?”
“Blamed if I know,” said Mart.
“Reckon we ortent a’ been so hard on
Ab.”
“Guess we wuz a leetle grain too
fast, Mart, an I ’low he never stole the
ore, or he'd been gone with it. We
ort to a give im some money last night.
Does that thar letter say Ab's woman
is in need o money, Rile ?”’
“It says she is sufferin fer means.”
“Wal, means is money, I’low. Is
her address thar?”
“Yas. She's over at Frisco.”
“Takes a week to git over thar,
don’t it?”
“Most a week, I jedge.”
“An that letter says Ab’s woman is
'bout to die, an’ wants means an’ wants
Ab?”
“Yas; that what it says,”
“Wal,” sandy, “I've got ten dollars
o’ means for old Ab’s woman.”
“An’ so hev I,” cried Mart.
“Me, too,” said Jack.
Rile and Baldy put down ten dollars
each.
“Fellers,” Sandy said, “I’ll go down
to the post an’ send this on, an’ fetch
that ‘doc’ up to see Ab. I’low he
must be purty blamed sick.”
It was late when Sandy returned
with the doctor, and they found Ab
much better. Two or three days later
he was able to take the stage for Fris-
co, and the miners “chipped in” to
pay his fare. They also bought him a
new suit and gave him a little pocket
change.
“Old Ab’s not much force,” Sandy
remarked as the stage rolled away,
“but when a feller’s wife’s sick blamed
if it’s right to hold up agin 'im ’spec-
ially when she’s sich a purty, sweet
creeter as the face in that pictur.”—
