BRAVE DICK,
BY REBECCA HAliDlXtt DAVIS.
One or two young me n came out of the
Academy of Music when the opera was
over, and lingered in tlie lobby to watch
the passing of the crowd. Young Fred
Saulter came up to them while putting
his pearl lorgnette in its case.
"Nice house, eh?" lie said, languidly.
"Well dressed. See Fanny Swan.
Wretched taste for young gitTs to wear
diamonds! What d'ye think of the new
tenor,eh? Miserable, I say."
The older man answered him civily
and walked on, leaving him with some
lads of his own age. .
"What would Miss Swan say if she
h?ard that cub criticizing her?" said Dr.
Poncroy. " Tiie most insufferable creature
in the world to me is a conceit! d
boy, assuming the tone ot a man of position,
when he has not yet proved his
* right to be alive."
" I thought young Saulter had
money," said one of the parly "He
drives a fine horse, wears clothes made
f by a better tailor than I can afford, and
lunches at the best restaurant.
"Money!" said the doctor, angrily.
"Why, his father is head bookkeeper
for Smiles & Son, with a family of six.
He strained every nerve to educate this
boy, who now looks upon every practicable
way of earning his living as plebeian.
I'll warrant you the fellow never had
twenty cents in ins poc-Kcis 01 ins own
etming. His restaurant and livery
stable bills come in to his poor oki
father at the end of every month."
Meanwhile, young Saulter stood complacently
twirling his opera hat ahd
watching the pretty girls as they nassed
' He caught a glimpse of his dapper little
figure in a great mirror?the waxed
mustache, lavender gloves, wired roses
in his button-hole?and looked pityhiglv
after the doctor and his friends.
"How those old fellows mutt envy
us!" he said. "Wine, with life in its
sparkle, and dregs, eh ? Oh, by the way.
I saw a curious thing to-day! Dick
Knight?you remember Knieht in our ,
class, who took the scientific course to
tit him for a civil engineer? Well, it
appears that, times being so hard, he ,
could get no tproper work to do; so he
has taken to improper. Instead ot laying
by as I have done, waiting quietly
for an opening for an educated man to \
8teo into, he actually is?I'm ashamed to ;
tell it!"
" vvhat? What is he?" asked his lis
tener,
"Driving an engine on'the Central
road! Fact! I saw liim, all grimy
with smoke, in his little caboose to-day.
'Good heavens!' I said,' Knight, are you
mad?'
"4 Not so mad as to starve,' he said,
laughing.
"'I asked him why his father did not
upport him, and keep him from such
degradation. Then e was mad.
" * Do you think I. with my bisr strong
body, will be a burden on an old man?'
he said ; and began to talk nonsense
a^our laziness detruding man and that
no man was ever degraded by honest
work, wiili more of the same sort ol
bosh, all very ridiculous and very disgraceful.
You'll see him to-night, if
you take the 11 p. M. train."
"Tut, tut!" the lads said; and "Poor
Knight! he was a good fellow," precisely
as it he were dead. ? , i
Indeed, from the light and brilliancy <
o 11 scene above them?the music, the <
beautiful low-voiced women, themselves
daintily attired, that gay and
happv p'U't ot the world?there was a
gulf like death to the grimy engine- :
driver in the dark depot, a gulf which 1
none buta madman, they thought, would I
willinirlv r?rr>?u '
They sauntered out of the opera house, <
and, afew minutes before eleven, reached I
the depotjn time for the train that ran 1
out to the suburban town where the} <
lived. I
"There he is," whispered Saulter. s
" He takes our train out; but the engine *
is not yet put to it." '
The enirine was on a siding, puffing \
and spitting little jets of steam, and Dick i
Knieht, a tall, manly young fellow, whs
coming at that moment down from the
superintendent's room. He caupht sight
of his old el)u>?maUs, laughed, hesitated, ?
and raised his hand to his hat.
"Going to speak to him, hey?" t
little Billie MeGee, anxiously. said
The young men grew red and embar-;
rassed. Some of them nodded to Knight I J
awkwardly, and seemed inclined to go |
and meet him
"I say no," said Saulter,peremptorily, j <
"II he chooses to leave the compan- j i
ionship of gentlemen I shall not follow ;
him. I talk to mechanics and that sort i
ol people who never had a chance to be 1
anything better; but Knight is a social
suicide, sir." ' ~ ,
"That's true." said MeGee. "How ,
well Saultet puts things!" he added j s
aside, "'Social suicid-*!' Well, I shall!*
not bring him to life." ;
Knijrht saw t?iat the young men wish- j {
ed to avoid him. and turned iiside wi; li a I 1
bow and heightened color, while they j 1
hurried into the train.
It was yet five minutes until the time 1 <
; of starting. j I
The train of passenger c:?rs was o?t the *
main track (the engine still being do
Inched), and the peopie were hurrying i
in. most of them coming direct from the j I
theaters and other places of amusement i
Inside of the cars and in the depot there
was a good deal of jesting and gayely be- ,
tween acquaintances inci ting on their
wav home, the train being a. local one. j
and running only through suburban '
villages.
Just then, a short distance up the '
track, there was a hiss and a cry. and a
voice shrieked out in horror: "A runaway
tiain on the raain track! A run- 1
away train on the main track! Piissen-!
gers in the depot! Out of the cars!?out
of the cars!"
A runaway freight train was on I he j
track. The fireman had started it Ufor |'
the purpose of taking it into the freight '
denot. By some accident, before it had j'
left the main track, the man had stum-?1
bled as he was at his worh, and 5
had fallen nearly upon the ground, j1
llalf-stunned, he had jumped up; but j'
could not catch the moving engine,! J
which was gamins speed every second, j
and had shrieked out his warning. 1
It so happened that the switch-tender, |1
through fright, or from some unex- , *
pl:iined cause, did not move his switch
in season to run the train off the main ! ,
track; and now the huge mnchine, with its
train behind, was rushing toward ?
tho train in the depot with a speed that' \
promised fatal disaster.
The few officials who were near had 1
time but to gasp with horror. At the <
moment when the cry of danger was '
shrieked out upon the night air, Dick j
Knight was attaching his engine to the i;
pass, tigor train. From the cars anH l
platform rose a yell of frantic terror, in 1
f. wlii !i Saulter's voir? was highest. 1
Dear !i seemed rusning upon the people. 1
who! had not time to pet out of the e:irs |:
before the driving train would be upon ?
them.
> # The officials in the depot watched
Knight with blanched laces. i
" He'll be crushed to atoms!" mut' ered t
one stout old man, standing by Dr. Pom- ?
eroy.
But Dick had put steam upon his en- i
pne. Apparently he did not think of
leaving his P?9t- There he stood, with !
Mr hand on the lever, calm and I
mined>
His huge machine sprang forward It
mot the coming locomotive with a
crash that threw both monsters upward,
as if they had risen to wrestle and throw
each other. Then Dick's enirine was
thrown on one dide; but the force of the
runaway train was overcome, and the
machinery of the engine so injured that
all movement was stopped. Dick was
hurled senseless several .feet from the
place of the collision.
The stout old man and Dr. Pomeroy,
with all the other men in the depot, ran
to Knight, picked him up nd carried
him into the waiting-room, where he
was left with the physicians.
" Well, well!" said the old gentleman,
impatiently, as Dr. Pomeroy came out,
"how is it? Will he live?"
" I think so. God forbid that I should
have to take him home dead to his old
father!"
"You know him. then? Who is he?
Why, do you know what I owe him?"
and his voice broke. " My little girl
is aboard that train."
Dr Pomeroy told Knight's story
briefly, informing the old centleman
that lie ?as thoroughly educated, but
that he looked upon any work as better
than dependent idleness.
" lie's the true #rrit. sir," was the animated
reply. "There's no work so
humble that a man cannot show the
best qualities of manhood in it, as we
have ?cen to-night. Ii is not the dating

the presence of mind, the keen eye. to
s*ewhat to do and how to do it. Request
Mr. Knight, if yuu please, to call
on mo at ten to-morrow," he said to the
station-master.
"Who is that?" asked Fred Saulter
breathlessly of the official.
"The president of the road. Dick
Knight, il he lives, has an open road to
fortune now. and he deserves it."
Fred Saulter crept into the car to go
home. His lavender gloves were soiled,
and the wired rose in his button-hole
was fallins to pieces with a sickly, decayed
smell. Life itself was sickly and
decayed, he thought with a yawn: and
he threw the wilted rose out of the window.
Yes. and to all conceited, effeminate
natures like his, it is likely to
prove as Saulter's imagination pictured
it that night.
" Military Honor."
A sergeant of dragoons has been before
a court martial at Berlin on the
charge of assaulting and mutilating a
farmer of Grunan. The soldier was in
Grunan on business, and. was quartered
at the hou^e of his victim. lie made
himself obnoxious to his host in various
ways, and finally, coming to atnner
drunk he took out his saber and laid it
on the table beside his plate. The farmer
asked him what he did that for.
* Nothing less than * saber or a saw
will cut the meat you give me," was the
reply.
i'lie farmer went out and brought in
from the barnyard a pitchfork, which he
laid down on the other side of th? warrior's
plate, remarking:
"You need a strong fork for such a
knife."
The sergeant took umbrage at this
sarcasm and commenced, incontinently,
to carve the author of it with his saber.
The latter resisted, and was badiy hurt.
He made a complaint, and the authorities
arrested the man of war, and handed
him over to his regiment for judgment.
'Can y?u offer any excuse for your
violence?" asked the president of the
court martial.
"To be sure I can," was the reply.
" What is it?"
" Honor, sir."
" Honor!"
" Military honor, sir. Have not I, a
veteran of two wars, the right to joke
with such a grubbling civilian without
liis exercising his gross wit on me in return?
As the divine Schiller says? "
"We are not tr\ing Schiller here.
You are sentenced to three months
arrest, double guard duty for six months
;ind the loss of a stripe."
Sutpected Scientists.
Jennie June tells this story in the
Baltimore American: A curious little
iucident occurred at Saratoga during the
late convention of scientists which shows
that honoi and honesty are not credited
( tlivm as much as they should. A lady.
Mrs. E. A. Smith, distributed in the
progress of her lecture on gems a large
number for examination among thi*
mdience, which she exhibited as illustrations.
At the close it was found that
one hid disappeared and could not be
found. Unfortunately, it was one that
i):ici neen lenr, lor me purpose, ami application
w:is not only made to the permanent
secretary for assistance, but it
was suggested by the owner of the missing
link that the thief was a colored
boty in the honorable secretary's service.
The secietary indignantly denied
the possibility, intimated that scientific
collectors were anything but
scrupulous in their methods of obtaining
desirable specimens, and that it would
be bi*st to pock?'t the loss and say nothing
about it. He also produced the boy,
who whimpered and said "he hadn't,"
und that he was only "a poor colored
boy," etc., which so touched the tenderhearted
secretary that he offered to go
bail for his honesty. But the flinty ola
awnerwas obdurate. He procured the
boy's arrest, and the gem?a rare and
valuable one?was found where he had
oncealed it; in the corner of the town
liall, under the carpet. Had he not perKvered

A R de on a New York Elevated Kond.
Let ui try the elevated railroad and
see what it is like. We will take the
cars down town and go up to Central
park and perhaps beyond. At the down
town station near Trinity Church where
the trains start from, we buy our tickets
and pass out upon the platform. Well,
really, this is a railroad in the air in
earnest. There are engines standing i
about, some with steam up ready to:
start, others running under a pipe to sjet j
water. There is a bridge over the water- j
Eipe, and on top are men with wheelarrows,
wheeling coal. One onens a
trap in the bridge, shoots his burrowload
of coal down the trap, and it falls
through a funnei in the top of the cah
of the engine. At once the engine moves
out of the way to make room for the
next. Quick work is essential on a railroad
that runs 800 trains in twenty-four
hours. Opposite is a switch-house and
in it we can see the man who controls
*11 the switches here. See, he lias moved
a lever, and, up th?? track, we Bee the
signal-arm move. There is a train coming.
The signal says " all clear," and
the train comes down, crossing over
trom one side of the bridge to the other,
running up to the side of the pla form.
Men stand ready to cast off couplings,
unfasten the air-pipes for the brakes and
loosen the bell-rope. The engine moves
away to the coaling place, and at the
same time another engine backs down
and is coupled on; the down-pass ngers j
have all stepped out, and the up-passen-1
gcrs take their place? and the train is off j
in less man two minutes. /\i untc ;m
engines rolls up pa-t tlie platform and
tnkes its place ready for the next train.
The arms'on the signal-post move up
:ind down and another train comes down
to the platform. If the business is very
active, one train follows another in
alxwt a minute and a half. We'll take a
train and go up town. The car is wide,
handsome, neatly-carpeted and with
broad and comfortable seat. The buildings
slip past on either side and we can
look into the second-story windows and
see the people inside. It's a mere dance
for an instant and then it is passed. The
people inside do not appear to hiind it
much. Well, when a railroad train
shoots by your windows everv ninety
seconds you can't afForil to look out at
every one of them.
The train pulls up at a station and
more people get in, and in less than a
minute we are off again. Now we come
out at a wide street and we can look
through the windows to the street below.
There is a blockade there. A
truck lists broken down on the horse-car
track and the cars are stopped in a long
line. IIow lucky that we ran lly right
over the whoie affair, crowd and all. and
leave them far behind, while the drivers
below are quarreling as to whoshall get
out of the way! On we go up-town;
stopping at station after station, making
two more curves and then coming to
Sixth avenue. Now we spin alongin
line style, and as the road is in the middle
of the street we have a good chance
lo see the shops and sidewalks below.
We co in this way for nearly three miles,
pass a branch road leading off to the
left, and then stop at Fifty-eighth street.
Here we are at Central park in tw< nty
minutes from Trinity Chur-h, and making
twelve stops on the way.?Charles

A. Kidnapped Boy's Romantic Story.
A wandering heir, with a ?tory quite
as remarkable jis that of Charles Reade's
hero, has turned up in Boston. In 1869
tlieie disappeared from the city of l/)ndon
a boy of four years, named Harry
Gilbert Strattou. Since that time, until
recently, the whereabouts of himself and
his only sister has been unknown, although
for the last nine years persistent
searcli has be? made for the children,
both in Europe and America, the British
Consul-General atNewYork having been
deeply interested in the case. It suoul'
be stated that the children fell heirs
nine years ago, by the death of their
parent ', to a considerable property in
London. Harry was found in the
tramps' lodging-house in Boston the
other day, and told a reporter his story.
Ila- was kidnapped by ohe d'Atalie, a
noted circus performer, who died a short
time since. He was-brought by d'Atalie I
to America, anc\ although but five I
years old, subjected to a fiendish sysnf
tmininir fnr the nroft fision of a I
contortionist. The inhuman trainer i
began by bending liis tender back over
his (tke trainer's) knees to make it supple,
and interrupted his experiments
only to flog the poor child for not yieldingreadily
enough. Among other courses
to which Harry was subjected w:is being
hoisted in the air by his" teeth, and
whirled around at the end of a strap. lie
naturally became proficient, and traveled
several seasons with Barnum and
other circus proprietors. He will,
doubtless, be remembered by many as
the boy who used to stand on a cannon
ln?id by a woman The woman was
d'Atalie's wife, and is now married to a
man named Austin. One day Harry
made an effort and secured his freedom,
.since whicli time lie Ims been on the
tramp in the Middle and Eastern State*.
He is a very bright, lad, mid was overjoyed
at finding tint someone had an
interest in him. He stated that his sister
lived, at last advices, at Upper Kensington,
London. lie was jriven in
charge of -the British Consul-General,
.und will at once be sent to England to
claim his new-found position among
civilized beings.

to burning it myself?and ground I take
one of those coffeepots with a top to it

I'ood coffee, well burned and ground;
nnd the second that you cannot make
coffee without using coffee. The mnn
who undertakes to make a quart of coffee
out of a teaspoontul of grounds will
lind out his mistake. Put in enough,

to have it boiling, not scalding. It

set then coffee that wouid make a king

the Vienna coffeepot. The simplest is
the better. 1 never touch an egg.
In both tea and coffce there is a second
taste, and the second t:iste to coffee is
bitter and acid. If you desire, therefore,
superior coffee or tea you have to use
enough to get the first taste, which is a
IraL'runt and delicious result. If you let
tliis stand a while, you get the second,
which is more or less bitter and stringent.

An experienced guide and prairie tra

Although but a little over a year o!

Looking1 for His Cow.
A good story comes from Woodstoc
, Me. A grocer there owns a cow wi
horns of inferior length. Some in
i chievous boys obtained from tlie ta
nery a pair of cast-off horns, whie
' with a bit of cement they nicely fitt
over the horns of the cow, and left li
to go home at milking time, which s
did. Her owner not only failed to 1
cognize her, but actually used force
expel her from the premises. The v
luge was searched in vain for the mi:
1 ing animal,and an advertisement was i
sorted in the iocal paper. Day after d
the stray cow was turned away, until
hist, refusing to obey the verbal ord<
the victim of an innocent joke seized h
by the horns, which came off, and in t
intruder recognized his own propert
for the loss of which ae had so sad
mourned.
