THE HAPPY LONQ AGO.
They tell us of th good old tlm
The happy lone ago
Alaat tha world to-day U tilled
With nothing much but woe!
Back In tha blissful, lovely days.
I When all thing were ao nice.
li Icemen's wagons rumbled, and
The people had no Ice.
'Bark In th happy, happy days
When people were so blent.
When life was worth the living, and
The world was at Its best
Men didn't turn the faucets on
When they went home at night
And plunge as we plunge Into tubs
All smooth und clean and white.
The good old day, the fair okl days,
Kre awning had been made.
Mow sweet It must have been, when It
Was ninety In the shade.
To sit beside a window where
The sun whs shining through
While from unsprlnkled streets the dust
In choking volumes blew!
Bow Kind they must have been who lived
In those old. happy duys,
Where everything was done by hand
In good old-fashioned ways,
When smoky candles pierced the gloom
And bubles yelled at night
Because there were no safety pins
I To give their souls delight
i
Ah! happy, happy days long past.
When all the world was gay.
.Ere window screens had been devised
To keep the flies away.
When people slept on corded beds
And hnd tholr visions rare
jWhlle glad mosquttos took their fill
Whut happiness was there!

; A Fair Chance.
.oooooooo
IT WAS drowsily warm that day,
and though a murder ense was in
Itourse of trial at the county seat, it
had aroused no particular excitement
in the minds of the inhabitants of
Willsborougb. The rourtroom hnd
jhurdly more than its usual contin
gent of idlers and loungers:.
For one thing; the case lind no com
plications or sensational fentures,
And there was nothing sentimentally
lintcrcsting in the character of the
parties concerned. It was just a coun
try fellow, a piny-woodsman, who had
killed his step-brother, and then
seemed nble to give no explanation
Tor his deed but, "Ho deviled me till
tl done' it." The two, it appeared,
lad liad "words," and suddenly Al
plieus White picked tip an adz
and struck Jim Jordan a terrible blow
on the head that killed him instant
ly. The ntep-mother and step-sisters
of the accused nnd several of
their "kin," witnessed against Al
jpheus, nnd bore voluble testimony
to the fact that he had always been
'full "f pyore meanness;" whereas,
"Jim had been beliked by all that
Jcnowed him.' According to them Al
jpheus had "a-gredge'1 against Jim for
years, had always been jealous of
him, and "spited" him whenever he
could.
'. Alpheus hnd previously borne the
ireputntinn of a harmless, peaceable
mnn, not "overly bright," but steady
nnd sober; yet the fact remained that
Tie had killed n, man, seemingly tip
on slight provocation. Ho did not
attempt to deny his crime, or even
to excuse it; appearing dazed into
-submission to his fate. There was
nothing in his appearance to excite
the sympathy of those sentimental
eotils who till the cells of murderers
with bouquets. He was just a tall,
tliin countryman, awkwardly put to
gether, with a freckled face, hair al
most colorless, and a long, sunburnt
neck amply displayed by the turn
down collar of his checked cotton
ahirt. Only in his pale, blue eyes
there was a sad, puzzled, rebuffed
look one sees in the eyes of some poor
homeless dog that everybody kicks
mid abuses and drives away.
The case bad been one easily dis
posed of. The lawyer appointed by
the court had pleaded somewhat
lukewarmly, the causa of murder.
Then followed the district attorney,
who referred to the prisoner ns a
fratricide, likened him to Cain, and
became eloquently impassioned upon
the duty of conviction.
' The jury retired to deliberate.
Alpheus sat with his chin sunken
upon his breast, in a sort of mental
and physical torpor. The wind
brought warm puffs of perfume
through the windows from the bloom
ing China trees in the courtyard; a
slow oxwagon crawled creakily along
XIain street, and some pigs grunted
and sen filed in the dust.
"It's astonishing how near being
animals those piny-woods people are,"
whispered the district attorney to
.another lawyer. "That fellow is ac
tually too dull and dense even when
his life hangs in the balance."
l'ut Alpheus wns not quite so dull
and dense. He did not know what
fratricide meant, however, he under
stood dimly that the district attorney
had been "talkin' agin him." A
A vague thought came to his mind
'that if he had money or influence,
tilings might go easier with hltn.
The deliberation of the jury did not
last long.
At the verdict, "Guilty," a sort of
murmur ran around the room; for
there must always be a moment of
emotion in henring sentence of death
pronounced even upon the most in
significant of human beings. ,
The prisoner still remained seated.
Some one took him by the arm and
helped him up, and as he stumbled
to his feet he spoke for the first
time that day.
"I nuver hed a fair chanRt,"
he said aloud in the queer, jerky
drawl of the piny-woods.
It had a comical sound nnd some
one tittered in spite of the solemnity
of the occasion. I
"Did you ever see a convicted man j
twho thought he had had a fair trial?" j
one lawyer asked another.
i But Alpheus had bad no thought
f a fatr trial wtn ha apolra; h
wonld not hare known a fair trial
from an unfair one.
' i Hit mind bad gone far, far back to
jthe days of his childhood, to tha
, little mud-chinked log . cabin in the
j clearing where he had Uved with his
istner and mother. He remembered
his thin, sickly mother, who worked
so hard and had so many aches and
pains, yet was nevertheless always
"kind-spoken. There were many
little mounds in a rude inclosure
which, in a more civilized region
would have been considered none too
good to serve as a pig pen, for of all
the children she had borne, Alpheus
alone survived. His father, too, was
kind to him, and when he took his
cotton into town, in the autumn,
would bring Alpheus a stick of
"striped candy."
Hut the mother died, and after
trying to "do for himself, Alpheus'
father brought home the widow Jor
dan with her noisy, quarrelsome
brood of children. She took a dislike
to Alpheus at first sight. It was not
Alpheus at first' sight. It was not
jealousy with her conrse, buxom
good looks, she would have thought
she had no occasion to be jealoOB
of her sickly, faded predecessor, or
any of her belongings but she de
clared that the "young 'en was jes
too pizen ugly to live; as ugly as a
jailer nigger dog." As she and all
her progeny were black-haired and
bhtck-eyed, Alpheus' tow head was
naturally not admired by her. He
slunk out of her sight as much as
possible, but she quickly appointed
him the drudge of the family.
"Mary Uelle," she would say, "don't
you spile your skin over that lire.
Alpheus has got to stir that pot."
Or, "Here, you Alpheus, do you think
I'm goin' to let my Jim break his
back totin' them buckets o' water
from the springs?"
Alpheus' father had at first tried
feebly to protect him; but he wus a
weak-minded man, easily reduced to
submission by his loud-tongucd wife,
and though he might pity his son in
secret, he durcd not ruise his voice
to defend him.
The Jordans were all better looking
nnd quickerwitted than Alpheus, and
they were not slow to make him feel
this; tormenting him in various
ways.
"He ain't none o' our kin," they
would explain to visitors.
Jim, who was the nearest his age,
was especially malevolent in his de
vices for the discomfiting of Alpheus.
The only time Alpheus had ventured
to resent Jim's aggressions, his step
mother's heavy fist had hammered
into him the wisdom of suffering in
silence. As their mother made n
drudge of him, so the young Jordans
made him the butt of their clumsy
ridicule. It was Jim who gave him
the name of "Fiddleneck" by which
he became known throughout that
piny woods settlement. The rural
sense of the appropriate was tickled
by the title. "Don't it jes' hit off that
long, red neck o' his'n!" exclaimed
Abrum Heechby. "Jim shore is the
fellow to give names that sticks."
Yet Alpheus was a good, harmless
creature, who would have asked noth
ing better than to live on kindly
terms with his step-relations. As he
grew older the settlement had no
definite grievance against him; but
when one is shy and awkward it is
easy to get the reputation of being
"sullen-like" and the second Mrs.
White spared no words to make it
believed that her stepson was "hard
to get along with."
H.
Shortly nfter Alpheus reached man
hood his father died, and the larger
part of the little farm fell to his
share. Mrs. White was indignant thnt
the law gave her only a third, and,
in fact, went into hysterics when she
learned that the whole farm was not
to lie hers.
"Oh, my po' paltry thirds!"sbe
ejaculated, with tears of wrath. "If
this uin't on jest, there never was on
jestice in the world. Here's me that's
worked like a nigger on this place,
an' done for that man year in an'
year out, an wore myself out tryin'
to raise his brat flttm'--an' here I'm
put off with thirds!"
Hut the law Is law. Alpheus glad
ly gave up the cabin to his step
mother, and built himself another
ns far removed as possible from the
old one. He began to plant on his
own account, and became modestly
successful, owing to his industry. All
of which did not endear him to the
Jordans.
Jim had also reached man's estate,
and in gala attire, profusely scented
with "cinnamon draps," with his
black, curly hair well oiled, he vus
a typical piny-woods lady-killer. In
addition, he was a hard drinker, a
poker player, and an idler In short,
thoroughly worthless; but his mother
and sisters admired him greatly as a
dashing blade.
Alpheus' nearest neighbors were
the Millers new people who had
lately moved in from an adjoining
county. Moses Miller, who was as
quiet and hard-working as Alpheus,
hnd made the young man's acquain
tance in the course of their plowing
and planting, and they soon became
friends. Moses had au only daugh
ter, Linda, not pretty, but with a
pleasant comeliness, and gentle, kind
ly ways that suggested goodness of
heart. The probable thing hap
pened: Alpheus fell in love with Lin
da, and began to court her in a bash
ful way. Linda, who had no "high
notions," looked favorably upon him,
land all seemed to point towards an
everyday ending to this humble love
story. When Jim Jordan heard the news,
he "mos 'split his sides a-laughln' "
as he expressed It.
"The idee o' that old sneak, Fiddle
:neck, co'tin' a gall" he cried, slapping
hia leg. "Darned if I don't tail ia an'
cut him out."

"Yes, I'm sorry I killed Jim, but

The minister was with Alpheus to

Who Was Not Over Fond ( .
Physical Election. .
Down in Georgia, according to my
friend, Cnpt. Lyerly, who ought to
know, lives a man who is noted for
his love of ease, but whose wife is
sufficiently a hustler to almost make
up for his chronic disinclination to
activity, writes Henry SI. Wiltse, in
Llppincott's.
One cold night he went to bed,
leaving some bags of grain out of
doors which should have been placed
in the barn for protection against
the weather, to say nothing of
thieves. But then, they don't have
many thieves in Georgia.
During the night the hero of this
story awoke and thought thnt he
heard something which sounded like
ruin, lie was anxious to know
whether it was ruining or not, for if
it were he wanted an opportunity
to worry about that grain, or per
haps hint to his wife and then go to
sleep while she slipped out and at
tended to it.
, He thought the matter over for
some time and then hunched the
good woman.
"Nancy!"
"What is it. John?"
"Is it rainin'?"
"I don't know, John.
"I wish I knew."
"Why don't you get up and see,
then?"
"I hate to; I'm awfully sleepy."
"Well, then, go to sleep and never
mind."
"W all, I'd like to know. Hit's
right important." ' ;
"Then go and see."
"You go, won't you, Nancy?"

An ExpresalTe Sentence.
When Representative Tompkins,
of Ohio, was a young lawyer and was
winning his spurs, he occasionally
found it profitable to accept a case
in a justice's court in the country.
He tells the following story of the
argument made by a rural barrister
before such a magistrate. The case
was one in which the plaintiff sought
to recover damages from a railroad
company for the killing of a cow.
During the course of his argument
the country lawyer used this expres
sive sentence: "If the train had
been run as it should have been ran,
or if the bell had been rung as It
should have been rang, or If tha
whistle had been blown as it should
have been blew, both of which they
