"BUSTED" BLAKE.
How a Fortune Fell to His De
serted Widow.
Haiken to the tale of bow fortune fell
to the widow of "Pusted'' Eiake.
The outcome has shown that 'Busted"
was not radically bad. But he was
wretchedly weak of will to reject an op
portunity of having another drink with
the boys, or with the girls, or with any
body or nobody.
In the days of his ascendency, when
he was a young and newly married arch
itect, he was a buyer of drinks for others.
Waiters in cafes vied with each other in
show ing readiness to take his orders. He
was rated a jolly good fellow then. No
one would have supposed it destined
that some line night a leering bar-room
a it should reply to his whispered appli
cation for a "mall loan by pouring a half-
glass of whisky on his head and saying :
'T hereby christen thee 'Busted.'"
The title stuck. Blake, through con
tinued impecuniosity, lost all shame of it
in time ; lost, too, his self-respect and
his wife. Mrs. Blake, a gentle and pret
ty little brunette, had wedded hn
against the will of her parents. She had
trusted, for his safety to the allurements
of his future, which everybody said was
bright, and to his love for her.
The years of tearful nights, the plead
ings, the reproaches, the seesaw of hope
and despair, need not here be dwelt
upon. They would make an old story,
and some of the details miuht be shock
ing to the young person. They reached
a culmination one day w hen she said to
him :
"You love drink better than yoa love
me. I have done with you !"
She was a woman and took a woman's
view of the care.
When he came back to their rooms
that night, neither 6he nor his two
weeks' old baby girl were there. Then
he knew how much he loved them and
how much he had underestimated his
love.
She did not go to her parents. There
was a very musty proverb that she knew
would meet her on their own threshold :
"You made your bed; now lie on it."
Her fither was a man of no originality,
hence he would have put it in that way.
She got employment in a photograph
gallery, where she made herself useful
by -being ornamental, sitting behind a
desk in the ante-room. I know not what
duties devolve upon the woman who oc
cupies that post in the average photo
grapher's service; whatever they are, she
performed them, and with the wages re
ceived managed to care for herself and
child.
The next day Le made a Herculean
effort to pull himself together. He ob
tained a position as draughtsman from
one who had known him in Lis respecta
ble period, and he went trembling and
sheepishly to call upon his wife and
child.
The consequence of his visit waj a re
union, which endured for two whole
weeks. At the end of that time she cast
him ctf in utter scorn.
How he lived for the next two years
can be known only to those who are fa
miliar through experience w ith the ex
istence of people ho ask other peopl on
the street for a few cents toward. the
price of a night's lodging. By those who
kneit him he was said to bs "no good to
himself or anyone else." He acquired
the raggdness, the impudence, the
phraseology of the vagabond class. He
would hang on the edge of a party of
men drinking together in front of a bar
on the sliui chance of being "counted
in" when the question went round, j
"what'll you ha-e?" He was perpetual
ly being impelled out of saloons at foot
race spted by the o.licials whose function j
it is in bar-rooms to substitute an objec
tionable person's room fur hi-i company,
i One winter Sunday morning he slept
Lite upon a bench in a public square.
Awakened by an officer, he rose to go.
Hazy in heal and slil in joints, he
slightly staggered. He heard behind
him the cooing laugh of a child. He
looked around. It was himself that had
awakened the infant's mirth or that
strange oomething which precedes the
dawn of a sense of humor in children.
The smiling babe was in a child's ca.-j
riage, which a plainly dressed woman
was poshing. He looked at the woman
It was his wife, and the pretty child was
his own.
He walked ra; idly from the place, and
on the same day he decided to leave the
city. He bad herded with vagrants of
trie touring class. The methods of free
transportation by means of freight traini
and free living by means of beggary and
small th.every in country towns were no
secret to him. He walked to the sub
urbs and at nightfall he scrambled up
the side of a coal car in a train slowly
moving westward.
What hunger be suffered, what cold he
endured, what bread he begged, what
police station ceils he passed
nights in, what human scum he associat
ed with, what thirst he quenched, and

ESTABLISHED 1827.
TEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2, 1893.
with what incredibly bad whisky, are
particulars not for this unobjectionable
narrative, for do they not belong to low
life? And who nowadays can tolerate
low life in print unless it be redeemed by
a rustic envirenment and a labored ex
pression of clodhopper English and prim
itive expletives? Low life outside of a
dialect story and a dreary village?
Never !
Mrs. Blake and the child lived in a
fair degree of comfort upon the mother's
wages, but often the mother shuddered
at thought of what might liapj'u should
she ever lose her situation at the photo
grapher's. Consumption had its hold on "Busted"'
Blake when he arrived in the mining
town called Get-there City, in Kansas,
one evening. Get-there City had not
gotten there beyond a single straggling
street of shanties, but it bad acquired a
saloon, although liquor soiling had
already been forbidden in Kansas.
"Busied" Blake, with ten cents in Lis
clothes, entered the saloon and asked in
an asthmatic voice for as much whisky
as that sum was good for.
While awaiting a response his eyes
turned toward the only otuer persons in
the saloon three burly, bearded miners,
of the conventional. big-tatted, big-booted
and big-voiced type. Above their
heads and against the wall was the sign,
lettered roughly with charcoal under a
crudely drawn death's head :
"Five thousand dollars will be paid
by the undersigned to the widow of the
sneaking hound that informs on this sa
loon. This is no mere blutf.
P. ll:ir.3."
Blake, after a brief coughing tit looked
up at the man behind the bar, a great,
thick-necked fellow, with a mien-of au
thority and yet with a certain blutT hon
esty expressed about bis eyes and lips.
This man, whose air of proprietorship
convinced Blake that he could be none
other than P. Ciibbs, had first looked
sneericgly at the ten cenU, but had shown
some small sign of pity upon hearing the
ominous cough of the attenuated vagrant.
He set forth a bottle and glass,
"Help ytrself," said P. Uibbs. While
Blake was doing so, Mr. Ciibbs went on :
"Bad cough o' yourn. Y' mightn't guess
it, but that same cough runs in my fami
ly. It took off a brother, but it skipped
me."
Here was a bond of sympathy between
the big law-defying sakxin-keept-r and
the frail tojer from the! east. "Busted''
Blake drained his glass and presently
coughed again. P. tiibfos again set forth
the bottle and this time he drank w ith
Blake. Before long, by dint of rejieated
tits of coughing, on the part of Blake, the
sympathy of P: Gibba was worked upon
that be invited theth-ee miners iu the
saloon to join him and the stranger.
Biake slept in a corier of the saloon
that u i lit. He left there the net:
morning, a curious expression of resolu
tion on his face.
iJunug the next three weeks he wa
now and then alluded to in P. tiibbs'
saloon in the "coughing stranger."'
In the middle of the third week at
j nine o'clock in the evening, when the
lamps in P. Gib1 s' saloon were exerting
their smallest degree of dimness, the door
opened and in 6taggered "Busted" Blake.
II is staggering on this occasion was 1114111
lestly not due to drink. His face had
the hideou-i concavities of a starved man,
and the uncertainty of his gait was trie
token of a mortal feebleness. His emacia
tion was painful to behold. His eyes
glowed like huge gems.
The crowd of miaers looked at him
with surprise as he entered.
"The coughing stranger!" cried one.
"The coliin stranger, yon mean," siid
another.
"Busted" Blake hurried over to the
bar. His eyes met those of P. G:bbs on
the other side, and the latter reached for
a whiskey bottle.
Blake fumbled in bis pocket and
brought forth a piece of soiled pap?r,
which he laid on the bar under the
glance of P. Gibbs.
"Keep that!" said Blake in a husky
voice, whose service he compelled wilu
much effort. "And keep your word, too.
That's where you'll find her."
P. Gibbs picked up the paper.
" What do you mean ?" he asked.
"That woman's name there! Its name
of my widow ; the addnas, too, of a pho
tograph man who will teliyou where she
is. Get all the money to ner quick, be
fore the governor comes down on you
with the troops to close yoa up. And
don't let her know how it comes about.
Pick out a man to take it u her, let him
pay his expenses out of it a man you
can trust and make him tell her I made
it somehow, mining or something, so
she'll take it. You know."
P. Gibbs, who had listened with in
creasing amazement opened wide his eyes
and drew his revolver. II Epoke in a
strangely low, repressed voi ce :
"Stranger, do you mean to say "
"Yes, that's it," shriek -d "Basted"
Blake, turning toward the crowd of in
tensely interested on-lockers. "And I
call on all of yoa here to witness, and to
hold him to his word. That's no mere
bluff, he says, in his notice there, and
I'm the sneaking hound that informed.
My w idow's entitled to hi live thousand
dollars. I did it in Tope i,and for proof
see this newspaper!"
P. Gibbs lired a shot from his revolver
through the newspaper that Blake- pull
ed from beneath his shirt. Then the
saloon-keeper brought his weapon on a
level w ith Blake's fac i.
"It's good your 1 ajota is on !" said P.
Gibbs, ironically.
But he did not fire. B'ake stood per
fectly eti.I, awaitiuf; the shot, aad feet! y
laughing.
So the two renvi.'ied for some momenta
until Blake sudde nly sank to the floor,
quite exhausted. He died within a half
hour, on the saloo: 1 floor, his head rest
ing in the palm of P. Gibbs, who knelt
by his side and tried to revive hiiu.
At the neit dawn, a man whom they
called Big Andy srarU-d east ; and the
piece of paper thai! Blake had handed to
P. Gibbawasnot mil that he took with
him. The UniVed States marshals arriv
ed and daly closed Gibbs' saloon which
reopened very shortly afterward, minus
the five thoos and dollar c ffer.
And Big Andr found the widow of
"Busted" Bla ke, to whoo he told a bit
of fiction, in accounting for the legacy
conveyed by- Lint to her, that would have
imposed u; on the most ii credaloos lega
tee. When she had rewyered from the
surprise ofj finding herself and her child
provided wilh the means of surviving
the possible loss of her situation, she for
gave the late "Bi-ted," aad there was a
flow of tears unusual to a boarding house
parlor, and unnerving to Big Andy.
Presently she asked Andy whether he
knew what her husband's last words had
been.
"Yep," said Andy,' "I heard 'm plain
and clear. Pete Gibbs, the other execu
tors of the will, yoa know Pete says:
'It's all right, partner, me an' Andy will
see to it,' and then your husband says:
'Thank Gawd, I've been some good to her
an' the child, at last"
Which account was entirely correct.
When Big Andy had returned to Get
there City and related low he perform
ed his mission, he added .-
"I'd been such a lovely liar all through
it's a shame I had t i go an' spoil the
story by puttin' ia some truth at the
finish."
They put up a wooden grave tiark
where Biake was buried, and after his
name they cut in the wool this testimo
nial :
"A ten lerfowt that was some good to
his folks at last." 11. S. .y;.i-it., in 7. it

He Felt the Bullets Strike.
That was a good story which the Kev.
C. J. K. Jones, of Louisville, told iu a
Boston pulpit the other day. He said:
"An alarmist always reminds me of a
friend of mine who was a commander
at the battle of Round Mountain. It
was a hot fight oue of the hottest of the
war. At a particularly intense part of
the action my friend stood beside his
horse scanning the field with bis glass
and directing the troops. He told me
it seemed as if the fire of trie whole Con
federacy was centered on him, the bul
lets Hying thick around him.
"Suddenly he heard aminie ball sing
ing in the air and he felt sotiiething
strike his leg. But the occasion was
urgent and he kept op his glass. There
was another 'pinggg, and he felt
another Etrike. And so it continued.
"The Captain at lest lifted up hi3 hand
and prayed :
"'O, Lord, I can go home to my wife
and family w ithout either of my leg.
b;:t, O, Lord let me get home.'
''Finally there came the shonu of
victory. The battle was won. With a
long drawn sih the CupUin turned.
He (.fiouted to his orderly at a little iiis
tanre, 'I'm wounded, Jim. Come and
help me o;i my horse ; I must go home.
It's my last battle.
"No, I guess not,' replied the orderly.
"'What's tha matter? Come, hurry
uj. I'm wounded.'
" 'If you want me to help you, come
here," sang out the orderly.
"But what's the trouble? Why can't
you come here? I'm't yoa s:e I'm
wounded and almost dying?'
'"O, no, you're not,' sang out the or
derly again.
"'Come here instantly, you rascal,
shouted the commander.
"'No, I don't ; that's the b'igge-4 nest
ofyello jackets there I ever saw ia my
life,' was the final laughing reply of the
orderly.
"The storming swarm of hornets were
the only mi rue bulls that had struck
him." Ioi,h Joifnil.
Don'ts for Young People.
I)on't forget thatmarriige is the found
ation of a new family, not the union ef
tiro old ones.
Dn't marry one whose tatM and
i deals in life are so different from your
own that there could never be sinile:ies
of aim and purpose in the home.
I.m't marry anybody till satisfied that
life together w ill be bearable and enjoy
able, as long a3 both shall live.
Ion't expect marriige to make a great
change in the habits and aims of a young
man or a young woman either.
Don't try to w in love by flattery.
lon't try to buy love by ri -h and nu
merous gifts ; love got in that way is not
worth the having, for it is not love at all.
Don't marry for physical beauty alone;
for unless mated with beauty of mind
and spirit, it is truly an app'.e of ashes.
Don't forget, when married, that rua
tual forbearance is the keynote of life
long happiness.
Had a Good Hold.
I had stopped to smoke a pipe with a
Georgia "cracker" on a log at his door,
and noticing the general shifi'.e-sness of
the surrounding? I finally asked :
"Why don't you fix the roof of your
cabin ?"
"Gwine ter some day," he replied.
"That chimney ought to be rebuilt"
"I'm a considerin' to uo it."
"I should be afraid that stable would
fall down and kill the mule."
"Beckon I 've got to prop it."
"The weeds appear to be too much
for yonr corn."
"Yea weeds is powerfal around yere."
He was so placid and good-natured j
about it that I ventured further and !
said :
"It seems to me that with ambition
and hard work yoa could not only make
a good living on this place, but get
something ahead."
"I could, for snah," he answered.
"Then why don't yoa do It?"
"Waitin'."
"Waiting for what?"
"Waitin' fur to git that ambishua you
spoke of."
"And do you think you'll ever Jgtt
it?"
He retailed his pipe, lighted it and slid
off the log to get a brace for his back.
When he had got comfortably settled he
queried :
"stranger, yo' doan' live around yere,
I recken ?"
"No."
"Cause if yo' did yoa'd diskiver that I
hav ft mighty good thing of it as it is,
and would be a fool to let it go for
somethin' new."

" If I was an operator, James that's

"No, my dear. You'd be ft padding."

The Bachelor.
Not Ion? since a country lyceum, not a
thousand miles from Boston, discussed
this question: " RJo l, That an old
bachelor is of 110 use in the world, and
that he cannot possibly bo as happy as
the married man." And it was decided
that he might as well havo been left out
of the scheme of creation, and that he
must necessarily be of ail men the "most
miserable.
All of which is a mistake, as any of
oar bachelor friends will agree.
Why, the compensations of an old
bachelor are multitudinous, if yoa onte
stop to think of it
He is a free man. He can stay out till
3 o'clock at the club or lodge, and if the
keyhole is lost when he gets to his board
ing place there is nobody to find, fault.
If his breath eme'.U of essence of pep.
permint or cardatuan seeds nobody cal's
him to account. If he smiles on the
widow Jones or loons swe.-t at tlie widow
Brown he ia all right no exacting wife
is watching him and getting ready to ask
him, with tears in her eyes, if he is not
ashamed to look hei, Uie mother of
his children and the wife of his bosom,
in the face.
When he gets mad he fan relieve his
mind by a little strong language without
being told that he is a member of ttiia or
that society, and that he is liable t die
any minute and be called upon to give
an account.
He can lie abed in the morning n
cold winter mornings as lon as be
pleases. There is no one to remind him
that it is time to get up and make the
fire and thaw out the pump and see if
the pipes are frozen, and shake the fur
nace, and wind up the clock, and let the
cat out doors, and g-t the ice off from the
bitck doorstep, and take in the milk, and
put the bread card in the window.
He is not told the minute he comes
home at night that Bridget has given no
tice, aud the coal is out and the butcher
has sent his bill and it is twice as much
as it ought to be, and that the leak over
the dining-rooui window must be seen
to, and the stove lining is cracked, and
the last barrel of Hoar is too dark-colored
for anything, and there is an invita
tion to Lobiuson's silver wedding and
it'll cost twenty dollars to g-t anything
decent in silver, and the baby appears if
the hti l got the measles or mumps, and
there u.'ist le a knob put 0:1 tint cellar
door and there is a bi'.l for ten doUars on
that life insurance policy, and the hall
lamp is broken, and the Jones folks
have got a new set of parlor cartains, and
Smash t Crash are selling cut tains for
positively nothini".
The ol 1 bachelor has never to listen to
such speeches as these :
" I wish I'd never seen you. I might
have married twenty times better than I
did ! I was a fool once and everybody
knows it! If I ha 1 only listened to my
friends! If I had my days to live over
again I wouldn't marry the best man
tii.it ever trod shoe leather! I wish I'd
been an old maid !"
He may bd a little lonely sometimes,
but then, every lody is lonely. He may
have to sew on a button now and then,
Lut w hat of that '.'
There Lsn't a man living who does not
entertain the opinion that he can do
anything better than a woman can do it,
if only he should put his mind to it, and
the bachelor has lots of opportunities for
putting his mind to it.
His nights are undisturbed by the so
cial iiiosyncracies of collicky babies, and
he is never cai!ed upon to light out of
bed in his bare feet an i hunt around in
the dark for a paregoric bolt le, or to kin
dle a tire in the middle of the night to
heat onion pouitiis f jr baby's croupy
throat, or mustard p'asters for baby's
windy little stomat lo.
He is never expeete 1 to go into evsta
c'.es over that beautiful " first tooth,"
whVh has at hut. through nr.told ago
nies of crying anil kicking, and peace de
s'.r.jyir.g generally, burst into existence,
and become visible to the naked eye.
T:ie bachelor is, or oovht t J be. a hap
py man. Ail the unmarrir l la lies al
mire him and pity him, and want to make
life sweet for him, and if his bank ac
count be & iargj one, almost any of thetn
will marry hirn if he wiil make the re
quest properly so w ho would Qjl bs a
merry old bachelor?

Deep down in clear, bright water
wondrous shapes and colors are seen, at

A Substitute for Leather.
Leather possesses such excellent quali
ties for the many purposes to which it is
put that it would seem idle to seek a sub
stitute. Nevertheless, there are many
persons who. while they find that leather
serves as an effectual protective covering
for the foot, tiud also that it is often ob
stinate in adapting itself to the require
meats of individual feet or to the more
or less physieal abnormalities to which
so many are sublet . In such cases, if
comfort is to be expected, on'y the most
supple and yielding quality should be
worn. At the same time, of course, it
should be waterproof and durable. These
qualities, so (ar as we have been able to
judge, belong in a satisfactory degree, to
an interesting and new material called
" llexus libra." It appears to be a flax
derived materia!, suitably prepared and
oiled, 90 that to ail appearance it is leath
er. It is particularly supple and flexible
and takes a polibh equally as well with
the best kinds of calf.
We have recently had occasion to wear
a bo.it of which the "vamp" or cut-front
section consists entirely of flexus fibra,
and have ourpously submitted it to some
what undue strain, in spite of which no
cracking of the material was perceived,
while the sense of comfort to the foot was
very evident. Flexus fibra, being a ma
teria! cf vegetable origin, is calculated
also to facilitate free ventilation and
thereby to obviate the discomfort arising
from w hat is called " drawing" the feeL
Tests with a view to piove its damp-resisting
power were made with the mate
rial by placing a small section over an
open glass tulie with true ends so that on
applying pressure at the other end of the
tulie it was found to be practically air
tight. This having been ascertained, a
little water was placed it the tube resting
on the llexus libra and pressure once
more applied. After some time traces
only of liquid had oozed through ; but
of course, this was an exagerated state of
things, ainl, as a matter of fact, no ooz
ing of water took place at all when it
was simply allowed to ret on the mate
rial for Several hours. The structure of
ilexm libra is letter jeea when the oil in
it is remove 1 w ith ether, to which it im
parts distinct llaoresenee, and when the
tiiacs dve is washed out '.being at the
same time changed to red i l y hydro

. A Wonderful Volume.
The most beautiful volume among the
half million in the congressional library
in Washington is said to I) a Bible
w hich had len transcribed by a mock
i in the si. tteeuth century. It could not
be matched to-day in the best printing
office in the world. The parchment is in
perfect preservation, Kvery one of its
thousands pages is a study. The genera!
lettering is iierman text, each letter per
fect, as is every one, in cold black ink,
w ithout a scratch or blot from iid to lid.
At the beginning of each chapter the
first letter is very large Usually two or
three inches long, and brightly illumi
nated in red and blue ink. Within each
of these capitals is draw n the figure of
some saint, some incident of which the
chapter tells is illustrated. There are
two columns on a page, and nowhere is
traceable the slightest irregularity of line,
Ejiace or formation of the letters. Kven
ttnder a magnifying glass they seem flaw
less. This precious volume is kept un
der a glass case, which is sometimes lift
ed to show that all the pages are as per
fect as the two which lie open. A legend
relates that a young man who had sin
ned deeply became a monk and resolved
to do penancd for his misdeeds. He de
termined to copy the Bible, tiiat he
milit '.earn every letter of the Divine
commands which he ha I violated. Fi
ery day for many years he patiently pur
sued Lis last. K ti ll letter was wrought
iu reverence and love, and the patient
soul found its only companionship in the
saintly f ices w hich were portrayed on
these pages. When the list touch was
given to the last letter the old man rever
ently kissed ttie page and folded the
sheets together. The illustrated initials
in perfection of form and brilliancy of
cjlor surpass anything produced in the
present day. With all our boasted prog
ress, nothing either in Europe or Ameri
ca equals it.
Longevity of Man.
It was Prof. Hufeland's opinion that
the limit of possible human life may be
set at two hundred years this on the
general principle, says the if. L'tnU IU
, that the life of nearly ail living
creatures is eight times the years, months
or weeks of its period of growth. That
which quickly comes to maturity quick
ly perishes, and the earlier complete de
velopment is reached the sooner bodily
deiay ensues. More women reach old
age than men, but more men attain re
markaole longevity than women.
Homed animals are shorter lived than
these without horns, fierce longer than
timid, and auiphidious creatures lobger
than those which inhabit the air. The
pike will ontiaue U live for one hundred
and fifty or one hundred and seventy
five years, and the comm'in turtle is god
for at least a century. 'Passing up the
s- ale of life to man and skipping ttie pa
triarchs w e find many recorded instance
of extraordinary longevity.
The ancient Egyptians lived three
times as long as ttie modern lotus eaters.
Instances cf curprisicg and autnentic
longevity among tt.e classic Greeks and
I:.. ;n aus are not at ail rare. Pliny notes
the tict that in the reign of Emperor
Yespasin ("J A. D.; there were litt men
living in a limited area oa the river Po
who were bO years old 'and upward.
Three cf these were 140 and seven oth
ers over 1110. Cicero's wife lived to be
10.;, and the Roman actress, Luveja, play
ed in puolic after she bad celebrated her
one huiid re 1 and twelfth birthday.

A Valuable Lantern.
A will written with a pencil on a shin
gle was once admitted to probate in the
United States. The author of "Gossip
of the Century " tells a story still more
curious. Two British soldiers, com
rades w hile talking over the chances of
war on the eve of a battle, agreed that
w hichever of them survive.! the other
should inherit all bis poewetwions. To
insure the carry ing out of their agree
ment, they made their wills. As paper
and pens were not at band, they scratch
ed their "last w ill anditestament" on a
horn lantern with a rusty caiL The
battle was fought, and one of the com
radvs killed. The other man, in course
of time, returned to England, carrying
with him the singular document. He
took it to the Doctors' Commons, where
it was pioved and allowed. Then it
appeared that the poor fellow who had
died in battle had, without hearing of it,
inherited property yielding two hundred
pounds a y ear, and the h-iratee under the
horn-lautern will receive the inherit
ance. I am an old man and have been a con-
I stant sufferer with catarrls for the last ten

Two Love Stories.
A young man of Memphis met and fell
in love with a young woman, who for ft
time seemed to reciprocate his affection.
Then another youth appeared on the
scene w ho seemed to the maid more
desirable, but to break off the first affair
by degrees from time to time she made
various excuses in writing to prevent
personal interviews. Finally, the cut
out swain, adding two and two together
and finding they made four, became
disgitsted and gave the young woman
her liierty in a letter, in which he in
formed her that while he was "no Yale
graduate," he knew a B from a bull's
foot.
