Eugene Fifid, the Chicago poet and humorist, who of late years has been devoting his talents to writing cradle songs and poems for the delight of the young, Is peculiarly sensitive about the earlier indiscretions of hi muse. By for the brightest things he ever wrote, although they lack the classclo finish of his later productions, he tfatihered together from tuts column of "Sharp and Flats" Into a little book in paper cover which had a considerable sale. They were full of breezy sketches and brilliant travesties of the Chicago pork-packing gentry as they sat In their boxes and parleyed tn Chicago French during engagement of Sarah Bernhardt and Pattl. Afterward Field changed the whole charaoter of hi literary work and .began to cater to thi very element of society, which he had treated with persiflage and ridicule In his paper-cover edition HI next book of poems was of lyrical charao ter, as pure 4n It moral ton aa elgh-teen-carat void ana! entirely free from the levity and skepticism of ils pre vious writings. lie had a profound fear that his paper-cover edition night someday be brought In evidence against him by some antiquarian rummaging among the collection ut odds and ends at the ntaill of a Mcond-hand book dealer, and very quietly ordered hi Intimates to buy up every copy of tbe book they could find, regardless of the conditions. They swept tha field co thoroughly that It Is now next to Im possible to secure th book. Fewjwho knew Field In his younger days, about tha Urn that ha wrote "Slug 13" (read at a printers' banquet while he was a reporter on the St. Joseph Gazette), would have predicted that he would ultimately ehine In the mellow light of a writer of charming Juvenile literature. The writer dis tinctly remembers, a notable game of base ball which for lack of time wa played on a Sunday afternoon on col lege hill in St. Joseph, between two nines, composed of members of th two St. Joseph dally papers, with the tall, gaunt, bony figure of the popular hu morist on first base, his trousers rolled above the knees, displaying a couple of very thin legs In white cotton ladles' hose, held In place by a cardinal ribbon. If he was not the best first baseman In the west, he wa certainly the most vociferous, and hU antics were almost as much a source of amusement to his friends as his literary productions. In those day he possessed fine baretone voice, which on several occasions ha exploited In opera, appearing In "The Two CadlB" und "Tha Doctor of Al cantara." He wu married In St. Jo seph, and In his heyday of success liaM sometime Intoned a blithe Btraln to hli memories of those days, aa evidenced by his poems, "In Lovers' Lane, St. Joe." und "When I Worked On the St. Joseph Ouze-tte." TOO CUE A 1 IiY HALE. From the Washington Post. I'llAPTKlt I. "(let tho galoot to piiHs the bill, gal, and I'll muke over hulf them phosphate Ij.mIh to you. The senate hus already passed it." "I'll do my best. Uncle Silver Tip," said Agnes MuiUliiKleii. "Slippery Kim lien ton loves me, and he ruiinol refuse his af tluneed wife his vote." - "They'd hank" him in Colorado If he did," observed L'nclo Sliver Tip. "But see to It ut once, gul.

The Hakes crowded the uir as they fell. The drifts were four feet deep on Connecticut ave nue. A man wrupped In furs pushed his way toward the Chateau de 1 1 untlniil.-ii. It was arctic cold, but love beckoned him. He stamped tho snow from his feet In tho entry. The next moment Agnes lliintln glen had eurled about his neck In a fes toon of affection. It was Representative Slippery Kim Benton. Agnes Hun'.lnulcn was a beuutlful girl; tull, slender, gpirit Uelle; with eyes as dark und deep us the heavens ut night. Alines lluntingln hud but ono fault, und that fault would sell the honor of the man she loved. Agnes Huntinglen wus out for thu stuff bigger tliun a wolf. CHAPTER III. "Sometimes 1 doubt the longevity of our bliss," he said. "Despair rides on the crupper of my hope ut times. The witch of Waco told how In a trance she saw my future spread before mn like a faro layout. 'Anil,' said the witch of Waco, 'I saw the pale hand of fale put u copper on the queen. You may be lynched, but you will never wed.' Such was her black ho.le.'' And Slippery Elm Benton trembled like a child. "Heed her not, denrest," murmured Ag nes Huntinglen. "Surrender yourself, as I do, to the solemn currents of our love. And, darling, promise me again you will do what Is needful for the phosphate bill. It would brighten the lust days of poor L'nele Silver Tip." "Where Is your aged relative?" asked Slippery Kim Benton, moodily. "We had better not call hlrn. dearest." she said. "Uncle is lushing tonight, and he Is unpleasant when he has been tank ing up. What you do for the phosphate, Benton, do for me." CHAPTKD IV. It was suspension day, and the phos phate bill went through the house like the grace of heaven through a camp meetln ;. CHAPTER V. "Half of that phosphute Is yours, gal." said Uncle Silver Tip, when Agnes Hunt inglen told him the bill was already nt the while house for the president's signature. "It's wuth a million. But you've arned it, gal. It was to turn seen tricks r.s these your old uncle sent you from the wild and wooly west to an eastern seminary, nnd hud thorn knock your horns on. It co.it u bunch of cattle, but It paid." CHArTF.lt VI. "There Is something I must tell you, love," said Agnes Huntinglen. "You would know all In time, and it Is better that you learn It now, and from the lips of your Agnes." "What is It. beautiful one?" said Slip pery Elm Benton, languidly. The con gressional day and Its labors had wearied our hero, and although with tho woman he loved, he still felt fatigue. "Read this," and Agnes Huntinglen pushed a paper In her lover's hand, and shrunk buck as IT frightened. The paper mado over one-half the phosphate beds to Agnes Huntinglen. "And It was for this you sold my vote In the house?" And Slippery Elm Benton laughed low and mockingly. "Oh, do not 8e love," said Agnes Hunt inglen, plteously. "Itather would I hear you eursn than laugh like that." "And so the vote end Influence of Slip pery Elm Benton Is basely bnrgalned by the woman ho loved for one-half Interest in a phosphate bed!" And Slippery Mini Benton strode up and down tho apart ment, tossing his arms like u maniac. Agnes Huntinglen cowered before the wrath of her lover. "What would you Iinve?" she cried, be seechingly. "What would I have?" repeated Slip pery Elm Benton, with n sneer which nil but withered the weeping girl. "What would I hnve? I would have all. all; my vote and Influence Is worth thn entire phosphate bed; and you busely accepted a paltry moiety, do from my sight, false woman; you who would put so low n is tlmate upon me. The witch of Wnco was right. I will never wed. Agnes Huntin glen, I leave you; I leave you as one unlit to be the wife of a congressman." CHAPTER VII. And Slippery Elm Benton, while Agnes Iluntlnglun swooned on the rug, rushed Into the night and the snow. JINGLES. North Have you got a good laundry man? Wost Flrst-rato.
