vBS ,- THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, SUNDAY, AUGUST 10, 189a 11 v OUE STOBY TELLERS. A Colnmn of Short Sketches That Amuse as Well as Instruct. THE HOKEST MAN'S COTTON BALE. Mark Train is Not Without Honor Bare in His Own Country. WOMEIPS EIGHTS GIVEN A BET BACK iwmrirn fob tez dismtch.I A gaunt old lellow with sandy hafcand with streaks of tobacco "jnice" on hit whiskers came down a Bandy lane, driving a. joke of lean steers attached to a screaking wagon loaded with a shabby bale of cotton. A nicelv-dressed man oTertook the old fel low and' pleasantly asked which way he was EoinC- , ii- -v u "Qoin'thiser way now (pointing), but will go thater way (again pointing) when I git down ran." Ton are going to sell yonr cotton, I sup pose." "Xas, ain't got but a little dab, but I lowed I'd go an' sell it to got a few yards of caliko an' some snuff fur mur an' tbe gals an' a little modikin of fiat tobacco fur me an' the boys. Takes a mighty heap of scrstchin' fur a honest man to git along these days; but it want thater way befo the wah. Then a honest man got pay fur whut he done, but he don't now, I kin tell you." "Yes, a poor man has a hard time of it." " 'Specially ef he's honest," the old fel low rejoined. "Ef I want no honester than the majority of folks, I could make money hand over fist an my wife an the gals could have all the caliko an snuff they want, an me an the boys could chaw flat tobacco all day an' set back, as the feller says, an' spit OTer the slash board. But as it is I jest have to grind along with mighty little snuff an caliko an" with a chaw of flat tobacco now and then. 'Want thater way befo the wah." "How ranch do you expect to get for your bale of cotton?" "Jest as much as tbe raskils air a mind to give me. They don't give much in these here dishonest days, but it want thater way befo the wah. Then a honest man mout expect to git whut his stuff was wuth, but the sun has iurever set on them thar days. Whar have you been to?" "Have been out to see if I could catch a few fish." "Well, some men can afford to fling away their time thater way, an I could befo' the wab, but a honest man ain't got no show now." "How many bales did you raise?" "Only two feller tuck one of 'em fur whut he lowed was a debt, but I didn't raly owe him a cent, but a honest man kain't ex pect nothin' these here days. Had a son to go away from home some time ago went to a town, but the folks was so aishonest he couldn't make a hvin', so he come back home to his dad what knows won't cheat him." "You should not be cast down. Doubt less a better day will come after a while." "No, not fur a honest man. Thar was once a bright day, but it was a long time ago, befo' the wan." "How far do you go to sell your cotton?" "lain't lur from here, now right over yander." "As I have had some experience in buy ing cotton I will go over and see that they con t cheat you. "Wush you would. Ah, laws a massy, you don't know how much good it do me to meet a honest man; an' when I git back home I'll tell mur an' tbe gah an' the boys that not quite all the honest men ain't dead, even ef it is dun atter the wah." They soon came to a sort of warehouse, on the bank of a bayon, where there were sev eral men engaged in weighing cotton. One of them, turning to the old fellow, asked him if he wanted to sell. "Yas, lowed I did ef I could git anything like a fa'r price, bnt I don't hardly expect these days." "All right, off with your bale and let'i weight it." "Hnmphl" exclaimed one of the buyers, "this is the heaviest bale for the looks "or it I ever saw." "Yas, low ground cotton," said the old fellow. "It don't look so mighty heavy bnt it is powerful to weigh. They tell me that it's tbe best cotton thar is." "Yes, that's all right, but we'll just cut this bale open and see." "No, it ain't wuth while. I'll takeyo' word fur it." "That's all right, but I wonH take yours." Thebaic was torn open and in it was found a sycamore log. "Wall," I declar." the old fellow ex claimed, "I don't see how that got in thar. But it is jest like some folks ter slip around an' try to injure a man's character. It has been thater way ever sense the wah." Each ! Fame. There are still a few of the old settlers at Florida, Monroe connty, Mo., who were there when Hark Twain was a boy going to a small conntry school at that place. Florida is a wee "backwoods settlement with nothing to recommend it bnt the humorist it turned out and the great catfish that are caught there in Salt river. Some of the old timers remember tbe lank, good-for-nothing Sam Clemens, who used to fish day in and day out the summer through, and spend the winter telling stories at the grocery. There is one old fellow there at least, however, to whom the fame of America's greatest humor ist has never come. A stranger was stop pine at Florida recently and the old man was pointed out to him as one of the pioneers. "Where was Mark Twain born?" he asked the old fellow, after chatting with him awhile. "Mark Twain?" he queried, in astonish ment, "who's he?" "Why, the humorist," explained the gen tleman, amnsed at he density of the old lellow s ignorance. "Youmerist, eh? Never beerd o him, an I guess ef he'd ever lived nigh here I'd a knowd it." "His name was Samuel Clemens; don't you remember him?" The old fellow scratched his head thought ully, and in a moment his memory helped him out. "Sam Clemens," he said, "Oh, yes, I remember Sam. He left here young though, an' everybody said that he was the good-ler-notbinest boy they ever seed. Sam was a long spindle-shanked feller, an' I never seed him do a lick a work in all his days. But, ei I said, he left here young, an' I never heerd what become o' him. Feni tentery mos prob'ly." There VFn One Present. "Is there a man in all this audience," de manded the female lecturer on woman's rights, fiercely, "that has ever done any thing to lighten the burden resting on his wife's shoulders? What do you know of woman's work? Is there a man here," she continued, folding her arms and looking over her audience with superb scorn, "that has ever got up in the morning, leaving his tired, worn-out wife to enjoy her slumbers, gone quietly down stairs, made the fire, cooked his own breakfast, sewed tbe miss ing buttons on the children's clothes, darned the family stockings, scoured the pots and kettles, cleaned and tilled ihs liniu wnt the kitchen, and done all this, if necessary,! uj siki uiii, uncomplainingly if In ere is such a man in this audience let him rise up. I should like to see him!" And away back in the rear of the hall a aild-looking man in spectacles, in obedi ence to the summons, timidly arose. He was the husband ot the eloquent speaker. It was the first time he had ever had a chance to assert himself. When Least I Thick. Tbe gentle bard of Avon quaintly sings, "When most I wink then do my eyes best see," Strange, and yet true it is, when least I think I'm thinking most of thee.
