I. uia and

"Well, when I got in I went into the
jlcc)it:g or nht away, for it wan already
Jiirk and I wit very tired anyway. 'J'hcro
Tas but one lierlh unoccupied and I
,vailed myself of it. The porter .aid to mc
before leaving: 'I htv to tell you, lns, not
to iiiorf to-niuht.'
"'Why,' I asked, in surprise. 'Haven't I
paid for the privilege of .leeping in this ear 7'
"Yes, boss.' the porter said, 'hut I'ol,
Elijah Gates, the richest man in Marion
county and one of the director, of the road
in .board, and the company don't want any
thing done to disturb him for ftar he'll aell
hit .lock. You know the -'goriUaV torc up
nearly everything during the war, and it
hain't been fixed up much yet.'
It was about chjht o'cluck when the
.'mit Kaid that he wa going to bed. Ho
pulled oil hi. boot, and coat, took a hunt
chew of toliacco, bade u. all good-night ami
got into hi. berth. It was not long before
thoi- in the car heard him .uoriiig and we
ill turned in.
"About 50 mile, up the road from Palmyra
i woman with a liaby came into the coach.
There no berth for her, no the porter
Uild her that .lie might .it up near th
stove in the end of the car, for the baby
jnuared sickly and the woman . face indi
rated that .he had been crying. Hardly had
the train left the town where .lie got on
hcn the baby begun to fret and cry. The
norur went .-.ailing back and excitedly told
ihe woman that .he would have to make
th baby hush for Col. Klijah (late, was
aboard and hi. .lumber mut not be uia-
turhrd. The woman, mother-like, caught
up the child and did a dozen little thing to
quiet it, but to no avail and tW' colonel
twuke with a snort. The tirst thing 1 .aw
was the colonel', b.ue socks poking through
the curtain, then hi. long legn and body-
came in Hixht. Puking hi. head out of the
curtains, he looked, at the woman acrutiuiz
inglv, but not angrily. Walking down to
where the woman wu. M-atcd, he said:
"My dear madam, you mutt do something
to keep that child quiet. J hee Here peopK
have ail paid for their bunk, and are enti
tied to a first -class night, rest. Having
raised 11 children 1 know that they will cry,
but as director of the Hannibal & .St. Jo
I've got to protect the right, of these
other fo'.k. So you will please keep the
baby as quiet a. you can.'
"The colonel didn't talk at all crow, but
the young woman wa very nervous and
after the colonel went back to hi. berth .he
sniffed and tear, dripped down on her
cheek, and the baby kept crying harder
than ever.
"There wasn't much sleeping done that
nijht in the car. fox the baby kept crying
the wcmaii nobbed uud auid 'O, dear,' and
'oh, my,' and the porter was excited to
death. Sleep was entirely out of the que.
tion. People poked their headu out a an
srilv as ever. The colonel tood it for awhile
then again climbed out of hi. berth and
aid:
" 'Xow, my dear woman, as I .aid afore,
I haven't any complaint to make myself, for
I'm accustomed to such things, having
raised a family of 'leven children, and
know all about them. Hut these other
folks, an 1 suid before, have paid for
night', .leep and if. my plain duty a. di
rector of thi. road to ate that they get wha
they pay for. Meerns to me like that there
is some way to keep that baby quiet. There
no use for a child carryin' on so. Soniethin
is hurtin' that child and 1 know it. Now.
you look and -e if there', not a pin .tickin
it. Having raised a family of 'leven chil
dren, I know that pin' often .tick children
and make them cry that way.
"The colonel went Iwck to his berth ap
parent'.- satisfied. But the woman couk
find no pin about the baby', wardrolie, and
the baby cried worse than ever. 1 neve
heard a child .cream and take on so. Th
woman cried aoftly, too.
"We all knew, or at leaat thought, that
the colonel would lose hi. patience aft
awhile, aud when he got out of his berth
tnce more all of u expected trouble.
Was getting on toward morning by this time,
aud we expected the colonel to storm
around.
" 'Look here, my woman,' he said, 'as I wan
saying awhile ago, you must do aomethm
to keep that child quiet. The people here
have paid for a night', lodging and they
must get some .leep at least. A. director ol
this road I've not to nroteat. I've raised f
family of 'leven children and it don't mat
ter so much to me; but 1 know a. well a
know anything that child i hungry c
omethin. No child every erie. that way
except when it is downright hungry. There
fore, I insist on your nursing it and giving us
peace and quiet.'
"Then the young woman turned red in the
face and began to cry. 'Law me, sir,' said
lie, 'I ain't the baby' mother. 'I m jusi
lending it.'
" 'Where is thut baby', mother!' .aid the
colonel, .omewhat sharply. ' hy am t stu
here attending to her business und takin'
tare of the hungry and crying baby as aho
ougnt to be?
" 'She', in the front car. air in a box
dead,' the woman unkl, sobbingly, 'and we're
WKing the body and baliy back home.
Ihe colonel started back in urprie,
Hien his eye. moistened, and he tenderly ex
tended hi. arm., and with hi. long, bony
nnger. opened wide, said:
" 'Young woman, give me that baby.' Th
eolonel took the chUd in hi. arm., rocked
nd talked to it a. tenderly a. would the
mother were she alive. And the baby seemed
to know that in the old man she had found
friend. The old mail's smiling face and
ootnuig voice had the right ellect: for
Was not long before the baby wa .leeping
soundly, with a smile on its face, in the old
coiouel g arm.
''The baby did not cry again that nigh
Hut no matter if it had and we passenger
d heard it: for there was not a man in th
wr but would have gladly golteu up to help
uu it.
Ihirty yeara have passed! It cem. so
long ago. Uut I distinctly remember th
list WOl-du T nr tw.nnl tliA cnlnnpl SilV! '1
Jon't matter if that baby doe. cry,' he said,
it don't make much noise, nohow. And I
guess it there' anybody don't like the way
this road he can get off; for being a direc
tor of the road, I can see thut it is done.'
'Col. Elijah date. hu been .leeping for
many year, la tj,e c j burying ground. And
the baby Is no doubt, now nearly a middle
gcd man, and I often wonder if, after he
grew up whether anyone ever told him of
'he time the colonel held him in hi. arms
'I'd did not conclude to sell his interest in
tueliuimiM & St. Jo." Kaowa City Time..
