from tho country, was driving into the
yard of tho Weston Mill In order to
jirocuro feed, ho was thrown from
his wagon nnd received painful Injur

to throw Mr, Atkinson from his place.
Ho was taken up and carried Into th'
mill. Dr. Bailey was summoned and
attended to a bad scalp wound, from
which he was suffering.

i:.KLY DAYS OT A GENIUS.
A Cln nine v Corner Chut Concerning
Thnt Laureate of lloosicrdom,
.lames Wliiluoinu Riley.
Oh, yes, about tho writer who wrote
the "Old Swlmmin Hole" nnd "Or
phnnt Annie" and the hundreds of oth
er sweet, quaint and benutlful things
that have gone as straight us an arrow
to the hearts of millions. I like to talk
about him, although we so rarely meet
nowadays that I look upon him as a
good deal of a stranger. Besides tho
life of so successful an author as he Is
Is crowded to Its brim with events and
happenings new faces and new
friends, and it old things drop out of
his remembrance, It Is not to be won
dered at.
The last time wo met nnd enjoyed
nn old fashioned uninterrupted visit of
half of a" long winter's night was at
tho Dennlson at Indianapolis, In Feb
ruary, 1S93. It had been a dozen years
since wo had seen each other nnd wo
had ninny things to tell that filled in
that yawning time, and then, apropos
to reminiscencing, like old men in the
chimney corner, In tho solid comfort
of their pipes, we reverted to the "70s"
the very early '70s, when we first
enmo across each other. I remember
tho day very well. It was a bleak,
blanched, frozen out March day, nnd
the place wns the little town of War
saw, between Chicago nnd Fort Wayne,
on the Pittsburg nnd "Big Four." I
wns almost a resident of the place and
felt considerably to tho "manor born,"
having been there a year, laboriously
writing a bit of rhyme for The North
ern Indlnnlnn, which I never wavered
or hesitated In calling poetry, because
it looked like it a little wnys off. This
dallying with the muse a trlile heavy
lVrformancc was merely Incidental;
I was reading medicine for a steady
job. 1 felt, though, that L was quite
a literary veteran and decently equip
ped to patronize new fledged nnd thinly
feathered birds of poesy and causally
spread my protecting wings over their
blue, shivering bodies. I think I did
this benevolent nnd charitnble act once
or twice about this time. There was
an old, ratty, dilapitated building at
the foot of the stairs, up which, In a
pleasant, dirty room, with a warm l.lro
and a bird cage and a cactus In a cor
ner, my Intellect wrested spasmodical
ly nnd by jerks with that most se
ductive romance, "Gray's Anatomy and
Aitkin's Practice," tho very lloweret
of tho healing art. One dnmp. shiver
ing day a feeble, yellow steplndder
looking like a bizarre centipede palette
with Its colors gorgeously laid was
standing outside one of the windows,
which was used for a display of Jewelry
when Its sanitary conudltlon would ad
mit of anyone looking in. On the
rheumatic, wobbling ladder, half wny
up, was a man painting a sign signifi
cant of the wares of tho house. I was
willing to have a good deal of leisure
those days and I stopped to talk with
the thin, inspired artist, nnd then and
there "Jim" Riley and I became ac
quainted, or, more reliably speaking,
he became acquainted with me, as I
did tho heft of the. talking his work
speaking for Itself. He pronounced
tho shibboleth. He had seen my name
In print and wondered by what unlquo
fortune, what legerdemain, I hnd ar
rived at this Mecca. And after a few
brief years I wondered, too.
Ho hearkened to mo like a man of
genius and I straightway loved htm for
this udorable quality. After this wo
were much together, and If by some
oversight or miscalculation of mine-
somo unfoi'Fcen circumstance there oc
curred u silt in my conversation, ho
would weduo lu a word, and I learned
thnt even ho hnd literary aspirations
(which made us moro nlcln and won
drous Ulnd), that ho had written u llttlo
rhymo but It lind never been in print.
He had not found so good an enemy
or-so vicious a friend as to publish his
verses, nnd so they hud gone bogging
nnd b('KKln on their disreputable way
that Is, when ho had postage to prop
erly hlo them veritable tramps, seek
ing- the veriest bade doors ror a smacK
o printers' Ink.
(This Is the proper place for an as
terisk and a foot note elucidating tho
fact that the above state of things
does not at present "obtain.")
When our acquaintance had the
ripening Influence of n couple of dayt'
time upon It, we became chummy and
conlldential, brazenly turned our paper
collars In rach other'b presenco, and
read mnnusorlptB out loud In unblush
ing egotism. Among tho bits of verse
lxi read to me one ilnytho paper
measled over with vermilion I still
hold to be the sweetest thing ho h'ns
yet ever written. It was called "Th
Argonaut." I naked hlni about It last
winter, but ho did not remember It.
Ho had probably uent It to Tho Muck
vlllo Clnrton, and for lack ot postage It

had failed to perform tho return trip,
and In tho absence of sufficient "merit,"
wns never printed, nnd was thrown
In tho corner where tho editor spit,
nnd was Ignomlnously swept out by
that much t induced small boy with an
Inky fnclal front, known to all prop
erly equipped newspaper olllcea. But
what a poem that wns! We were up
in Riley's room In the Wright
house tho wrong House, as I remem
ber It, by that bleak, opaque day. But,
phoentxllke, it was burned not many
years later, and hero metaphor refuses
to parellel. That comfortless rooml
Even ns I now remember It I shiver,
nnd consciously draw nearer tho fire.
There was a stovo in It an nborltlvo
pygmy of a concern red and Inflamed
with conscious guilt of Us utter worth
lessness, tho very sight of which in
spired ono to take cold. A bed thnt
was tho skinniest legend of comfort,
standing apologetically on a faded,
dissipated, Immoral looking old car
pot the thinnest faWo of n cheap
hemp; a bony skeleton of a sofa, with
overy spring articulate through Its se
ducllve haircloth Bkln; a cracked water
bowl, with frozen water In It what a
satire on nil other decent, self re
specting rooms that was and yet that
little poem Blmply glorified it,
which wns a contract I would not rec
ommend the average verso to tackle.
I had never been on Intimate, familiar
term with the genius ns exemplified in
authors, nnd I had only a vague, milky
notion that I might recognize It should
I come across It somo day, but then
nnd there 1 learned I was a person of
dU?jrnment nnd discrimination, jl
found my man, and I Knew him. In a
minute 1 was proud of him. I bado
him, like a patriarch, go in nnd win
that ho could do far easier than tho
majority of us could be decently me
diocre; thnt he had a future with tho
F thrice scored; no second hand, shop
worn, damaged by fire Future that was
going cheap at special sale. I think I
encouraged him a good deal. Ho said
1 did, and by light of this I number
myself nmong his numerous discover

LIGHTING AMKKICAN CITII3S.
It Costs .Moro to Keep Streets Lighted
Than Might He Supposed.
Prom tho New York Sun.
Tho cost of street lighting in New
York city for the year 1S97 will be in
excess of Sl.250,000. The specific appro
priation for this item is $1,222,821, to
which aro to be added sundries, wnicn
will probably bring It up to the total
unmed. Philadelphia spends even moro
than does the city of Now York In a
year for lighting its streets and alley
ways, the total expenso being $420,000
for gas nnd $017,000 this year for elec
tricity. These Items collectively do not
foot up to so much as New York pays,
but while New York gets Its supply ot
gas from seven different companies,
and Its electricity for lighting from ten
different companies, Philadelphia owns
Its own gas plant, and since 1S35 has
had entire control of It. To tho money
actually disbursed for gas, therefore,
must be added In the case of Philadel
phia a reasonable Interest upon tho
original Investment and somo account
must bo made of tho public property
Used for the works.
Chicago expends in n. year $425,000 for
gas lamps which Illumine with indis
tinctness some of her streets, the major
portions of which are unpaved roads
separated from the buildings which
front them by wooden sidewalks rest
ing In the mud. Uoston Is nn Ameri
can city, which, In proportion to Its
population and area, makes generous
provision for public Illumination, 1503
ton spends In a year $230,000 for gn.s
nnd $270,000 for electric lighting, n total
of $500.0000, tho extent of which may be
best understood by comparison with
the expenditures for the like purpose
in Baltimore, a city of the same popula
tion, practically, and of about tho same
area, Baltimore spends In n. year $220,
000 for gas and $140,000 for electric cur
