S STORY OF • STREET ARAB.
Mom the London Figaro.]
I was a street Arab. So was my broth
er Bill. Father and mother used- to
drink and send us to beg or iteal—it
didn't matter much which, so that we
brought something home. We were rag
ged'and dirty, fierce, impudent and reck
less. I was the worse of sthe two for /
v s the oldest and the strongest. All
d sf ; and almost all night too; I was in
the street. To scape the "Bobby" Fused
t o get a few boxes of lucifers and fu;
god shout nut "Here yer are: four for a
penn y." I sold very few of 'em. They
only served as a blind to get ha' pence
without giving a box. How I was knock
and kicked about, to be sure ! In rain
s , ti snow, frost and sun, I was in the
5 , re , t5; the rainier and frostier the bet
ter, for, though there were few people
then , I sot mire money out of pity;
sL.: could prig more from the stalls—they
veren't watched so anal. Some o' the
rac,iiey I took home, but most of it I
Generally I got enough to eat,
:t c , imes I
, was almost clammed. If I
m
e, 't got any money or wittels, I didn't
g eto our one room in a crowded,
e:rty court, which we called our home.
N,,t that I cared much for the thrashing
r it, but I liked better tti lie on door
gers , nr in entries, or anywhere, where
cud skid the Bobby. It was an awful
ir Hy life for a time, and didn't I look
e , ivn on the well dressed kids who were
forced to keepi themselves,. clean, and
earn't turn a catharine-wheel in the mud;
cr . pay ;ir pitch and toss, heads or tails,
with their money !
Slmetimes would stop and talk
t , me, asking about my father and moth
and wanting to know why I didn't go
t: school. I didn't know what they
meant by school, and chapel, and the Sa
viour, but I told 'em plenty n' guff, and
mostly got money out 'em. Tell 'em
where we live! —not if I knowed it. It
would have spoiled the little game, quite.
No, they never got tht truth o' me, 'cept
when I told 'em I was hungry.
At last I got nabbed. How was it ?
Why, I was taking a bit o' candy from a
stall at the corner o' a street, when round
comes the Bobby and takes me off at once
to quod. I was only a little tun I was
over twelve, but I didn't know. Did I
know what being good meant I didn't.
Did I know where I should gl to if I
told a lie? I didn't. The beaks shook
their heads and talked together a bit. So
I was Sent to prison for a day, and to a
rtfornaatory for five years.
Well, they washed me first and put
eean clothes on me. Wasn't I miserable
for a time? If I could, Ishould. ha' run
away; but that wasn't possible, I was
watched so. In a week or two I began to
like it rather. At least, I liked the work
they put me at. but I was longer before I
V . -led the books. However, this came - at
Everybody was so kind to me, and
IJId me what a man I ghoull be if I only
kept on, and was tonest and industrious.
S c I learned carpentering, and a bit of
gardeining l and, at last, I was able to
read and write, and sum a bit, and got a
lot of good marks. And once I heard the
master say to a gentleman whin_ came to
visit the place that I was one of the best
bars in the school, though at first I had
been one of the worse. This made me a
bit proud, and I worked all the better for
Before my five years were out I was al
tczether changed, and wanted to get on
i 2 the world. I told the master, and be
t 'd the chaplain and the visitingOs
t:ces, that I wished to go abroad and do
something gold for myself. I was only
seventeen but that didn't matt,“. I could
work well, and wasn't a bad schol tr.
Well, the end of it was that they prom
ise,! to help me; and they.did. The mas
ter and the chaplain were both very
earnest in it, and helped me in many
ways I chose Africa to go to, because, I
s•.:ppose, I bad read a good deal about it.
an thought I could do well there.
Ea .ugh money was raised to get ms a
few cl )thes and to have a little to start
wall, and a place was found for me in a
slip in which I could work out my pas
sa.:e.
I won't say anything about the voyage,
though it was a new world to me and
everything was wonderful; I wanted to
get to land and to begin to work for my
stlf. Still, I was just a little sorry' when
eras over; the sea was such a pleasure
t , me. The character I brought with me,
v.,.1 the good word of the captain soon
g t tie a place with a flamer at Natal.
.I)tri't I work, and didn't I save.? Be_
cluse I worked so well, put my whole
into it, I soon became a favorite with
naaster,‘who used to ask me to spend
aa evening now and then at•his house.
Ii:• family was a large one, tour sons and
Seven daughters, but blary was the flower
of tile flock. I soon fell over head and
ears in love with ber, so here was another
ice , to save and get on. Of course I
d'in't say a word about my love, but
kept my place, was silent, and deter
mined to gain a position and win her. If
You mean to do anything, keep it to
yrurt.elf, and don't blab it on the house
tops.
In four years, with some help from my
master, who always encouraged me, I was
able to take a plantation next to his. So
we became' neighbors and . friends. I
Wall(a another year, and saw that e very
tiALg was going on well, and then I spoke
Mary. She was wiling, and so were
they all, and, on the anniversary of the
EMI. year of my landing at Natal, I mar•
rigid Mary Bevan, and commenced house
keeping an my own account. She proved
, •
a real blessing and-s, true' help. Every
thing. we undertook prospered.. Why,
she could dti•erverything—from flat SOw
lug to., nulkytg cows. Brother s And l itt
tern ivereslicrtiniOelpfal, %Pt were
as one family, working one end—the
happiness and pFosperitt, of _ an%
other y_ear,- juit'before , ottr first tad was
born, 'was able.to buy the plantation,
and so beeaniemy own landlord.
The fight of Mary's - brothers often
made nie think of poor Bill. Father and
mother had died'while I - was - in the re
formatory, but I could learn nothing of
the lad whom I left in the streets. I told
Mary all about it, and she, bless her
heart ! adviced me to go' to England to
seek him out. lam sure she advised .it
becau‘she saw I wanted to go and - find
the only relation I knew of the old
,c6tin
,
try. I had now been awaftellyeraS,lnd
although not quite thirty, had made a
good fortune, married the best of women,
had a happy family around me, troops of
friends, and brother Bi'l might perhaps,
be starving, or, what would be worse,
working in a prison, for crimes which, if
left like him, I too might have commit
ted. S), with good wises from all, with
prayers for my success from Mary. I re
turned to England to find my brother. If
he is alive, I know I shall find him; and
whether he is good or bad, whethdr he is
married or single, he shall go back with
me to Africa, and we will make a new
man of him. He is the younger of the
two, and not too old! to-übegin life again.;
I know I shall find him, and then there
will; perhaps, , be another .s.haPter to add
to thie true story of a street Arab.
Deadly struggle on a Tight Rope—sne
Combatant Hurled to the Ground and
Little did the tens of thousands of men,
women and chillren who thronged the
public-square of Agram, Crotis, on the
15th of August, andcipate that they were
about to witness a spectacle such as has,
Perhaps, never been seen before—a mor•
al struggle -in mid-air. The occasion of
the gathering was a performance on the
tight-rope. The acrobats, Andreas 'Col
ter and Francis Pergowitch, were to ap
pear on the rope, which had been stretch
ed from a window in the fifth story of the
Court House, a distince - of 25( feet. The
acrobats were to meet midway, and then
to pass each other.
When the clock struck twelve, the
acrobats emerged from their respective
windows, dressed in tights and without
balance polls. Kolter walked rather cau
tiously, while Pergowitch came to meet
him from the opposite direction, with a
nervous, quick step. At last they met,
and the suspense of the crowd under
neath changed the next moment to a
feeling of indescribable horror, Perwo
witch suddenly uttered an angry expla
mation, and dealt Kolter a terrible blow
on the bead. Kolter staggered and fe 11,
but in so doing succeeded in clut6ing
the rope with one hand, while with the
other he grasp the ieft leg of his assail
ant. Pergowitch now fell likewise, but
passed his right arm around the rope, so
that he hung upon it in comparative secs
rity.
And now began a life and death strug
gle. Kolter, with his right hand, tried to
drag Hergowitch from the rope, while
Pergowitch kieked Kolter with his right
foot, and with his left hand endeavored to
loosten his antagonist's bold. No one
was able to interfere, and the result, it
was easy to foresee, must be the death of
one or both acrobats. Many women
fainted, while men wept like children.
What added to the general dispair was
the appearance of Kolter's young wife at
the open v•indow, from which her hus
band a few moments ago had set out up
on his fatal walk. Her piteous screams
were heard above the din below, and bier
appeals to Pergowitch to spa re her hus
band's life would have moved' the heart
of an Aapache. The struggle in mid air
lasted perhaps a minute, when Kolter
suddenly uttered a last cry and lost his
hold. He fell to the ground, striking it
violently and expiring instantly. While
the people gathered round the corpse of
poor Kolter, his murderer on the tight
rope managed to get on his feet again.
With a diabolical expression on his face
he uttered a yell of triumph.
The prefect of Police ordered Pergo
witch to surrender. In case he should
not do so within five minutes be would
be shot down like a dog. Finally he
raised himself to his feet and ran quickly
to the court house window, where he
surrended, begging that he might be pro
tected from violence. There was great
danger of his being executed by the peo
ple, who loudly clamored that the mur
derer be given up to them; but the mili
tary by a bayonet charge cleared the pub
lic square. Pergowitch being asked what
caused him to perpetrate this crime, said
that there had been a grudge between
him and Kolter ever since the latter ,-had
married young Rosita Serganoff, a Polish
girl of rare beauty. Koller,. ID a fit of
jealousy, bad told him he knew one or
the other must die on this account An•
dreas Kolter was the youngest member
of the distinguished family of acrobats of
'that name.
