W h e n dad was jus ' a little boy, H e mitst have been so good,

I sometimes think he must have been

L i k e a soldier made of wood.

X A n d now when I 'm out with the

boys, A n ' shout, an' jump, an' run.

Dad calls me in an' lectures me. A n ' says, " that's naughty, son."

N o w w h y can't boys enjoy them-selves,

B e as noisy as they can. A n ' fight with all the other boys,

Not be a " mother's man ? "

A n ' then w e have to g o to school, That ' s hard on a feller, too.

W h e r e you have to learn your lessons good,

Jus' like all the girls do.

If I was a feller's father, I wonder what I 'd do.

Let him slight school jus' to have some f u n ?

I'll leave the decision to you. H . M . ' i 2 .

W i t h a sigh of fat igue the wan-derer threw himself down in the shadow of the trees and gazed into the distance. Mile after mile, over hilt and vaj ley , <fhe country road lay hot and dusty beneath the piti-less rays of the noon-day sun. F o r mile after mile since early morning he had followed that road, k n o w i n g it would eventually lead him to home, and rest and Mollie. Y e s , that was all he wanted now, rest and Mol l ie ; Mollie, his little sister, his pet and pride in that far-distant but never forgotten past ; Moll ie who had believed in him and loved him and c lung to him when all besides had regarded him with eyes of cold suspicion. A n d yet, he had not stolen that money, though appearances had been against him, and all his world save Mollie had believed him guilty.

Somehow the trial of that lad down yonder, the trial he had wit-nessed only yesterday, brought back vividly his own trial of so many years ago. A g a i n he stood in the crowded court room facing j u d g e and jury , the dreadful word, " g u i l t y " r inging in his ears. A g a i n

THE CRIMSON AND WHITE II

he heard that startled cry of protest which told him that Mollie's faith was still unshaken. Again he lis-tened as in a dream, to a trembling, husky voice pronouncing sentence upon him. H e dared not look up into th« kindly, pityi'ng face, for though this man had been his father's best friend, the vagrant knew this old friend believed him guilty.

The trial finally drew to a close. He saw Mollie led out by the only relative he and she had left in the world. Her parting smile had sunk deep into his memory to remain with him all the days of his l i fe; that brave loving smile so full of faith in him and hope for the future.

Yes , history was certainly re-peating itself, only this time he was not the victim. L o n g ago, though innocent, he had been made to suffer for the gui l ty; now, though guilty, he was to go free and another to suffer in his place. H e was sorry for the lad; oh! yes, he was sorry. The great appeal-ing eyes of the boy haunted him. H e wished he had not gone to the trial yesterday, for he could not banish from his mind the despair-ing, heart-broken look on the young man's face as his sentence was pronounced, and his frail, hard-working little mother was born fainting from the court room.

It was hard on those two, of course it was hard; but the term of punishment was not a long one, and the boy was young. Three years could not matter much to a lad of his age. If he himself were well now he would go back and face those three years. But that was just where the trouble lay-H e was sick and worn and his one hope was in Mollie.

It was a stifling day in midsum-

mer. Even on that shady hillside the heat was almost intolerable. What must it be down there in the sun-baked prison yard, shut in by the high brick walls he knew so well. And that poor boy down there, and that poor little mother! W h y should they persist in haunt-ing him so? His feet were turned in a new direction, and there must be no looking back. H e resolutely closed his eyes, determined to think only of Mollie and the happy future to which he was travelling.

When he awoke he was tremb-ling in every limb, great drops of perspiration stood out upon his forehead. H e sat up and looked around him. The sun was nearing the horizon. H e became aware of a new sound which seemed to har-monize with the sylvan stillness rather than break in upon it. T h e faint notes of an organ floated to him on the evening breeze and mingled with them, came the tones of a woman's voice, subdued by distance, but sweet and tender and strangely familiar.

Fascinated, he arose and moved in the direction of the music, mak-ing his way with difficulty through the thicket of trees and bushes. H e was still in the clearing when the music ceased. Out of the wayside church appeared a woman walking slowly. The wanderer started, then hid deeper in the shadow of the trees, for the woman was his sister.

A Kttle later he stood once more in the country road gazing hun-gerily at the hills. Beyond those hills lay home—and Mollie. H e fancied he could see her, with hands oultstretched in loving wel-come, her voice calling his name. Then her figure was eradicated by a vision of the boy down yonder, the boy in prison stripes, looking

THE CRIMSON AND WHITE II

out with despairing eyesi through the barred window of his narrow cell. For a moment the man stood there hesitating, then faced resol-utely towards the east and com-menced to retrace the weary miles he had traveled that morning with hope in his heart. The hope was gone, but in its place was some-thing better, a great, wonderful content and peace.

T h e radiance gradua^lly faded from the sky, the twilight shadows deepened into night, the stars came peeping and twinkling one by one, and still his tired feet pressed on-ward. T h e moon rose gloriously and looked calmly down upon the solitary figure moving along the country road. A t the same moment it looked hopefully down upon a lad in prison stripes, sitting in the nar-row window of the prison cell and upon a mother not far away.

The girl who checked the soiled linen was the first to discover the writing on the cuJff. It was in a hasty, sprawling, back-hand, yet legible enough, and being in indeli-ble ink though smudged somewhat, it had not been obliterated in any part as yet.

A f t e r she had read the writing, she passed the cuff to the next girl, and from her that article of attire passed under review of every pair of eyes in the laundry. The pro-prietor coming into the room, after the cuff had gone around, got hold of it and read the writing on it.

" Some broker's cuff ," he said, and carried the article into his office- Here one of his office clerks saw him make a note of the writ-

ing on the cuf¥. A n d when this fact was circulated among the other employes, they, too, thought well to make a note of it. They would be as wise as their employer and perhaps would profit as greatly by their knowledge. Such a tip as the cuff offered did not fall to them every day.

W h e n the cuff, washed and dried, came from the machine, it still bore the writing that had caused such excitement among the employes. T h e girl whose duty it was to wrap the laundry for delivery, gave a last look at the writing on the cuff, to make sure that she had read it all right. Thank goodness, she had, for only that noon she had gone without her lunch, and hur-rying down to the bank, had drawn fifty dollars from her sav-ings, and invested it in ten shares of A j a x Oil for the writing on the cuff read: " Buy A j a x Oi l—any price under $50.—Lynn to bull it."

Yes , the cuff read A j a x Oil, and it was A j a x Oil she had bought. She had paid five dollars per share for it, and perhaps before the week was out she could sell it at fifty dollars per share. For Lynn, the Oil King, was bulling it, or so the cuff said, and Lynn had spelled both fortune and ruin to thousands many times during the past year. Several other em-ployees in the laundry were as interested as this girl in A j a x Oil, for they too had taken the tip and had invested, but the proprietor of the shop was more deeply in ter -ested than any of his help, as he had bought heavily in A j a x .

There had been something per-suasive about the writing on the cuff. It was a kind of secret tip from the inner circle, one of those things that aren't advertised, but are kept closely guarded by the

THE CRIMSON AND WHITE II

knowing, who make fortunes over night on Wall Street.

H e had looked up the name and address of the party to whom the cuff belonged, and found that gen-tleman to be a certain Orville Brown, living at a fashionable apartment near Central Park, A good man from whom to take a tip, rich himself, and very likely know-ing how to make others rich, should he choose to tell. And the writing on the cuff was telling, by accident.

When, however, a week after purchasing a thousand shares of A j a x Oil, the stock fell heavily the proprietor of the laundry grew nervous, then suspicious. W h y should a wealthy man, residing at a fashionable apartment, have sent out his linen to a public laundry? And, how came a wealthy man to be wearing detached cuffs?

Clearly there was something deeper here than eccentricity, anc when A j a x took another heavy drop and the proprietor of the laundry fund that he could not sell his thousand shares for one-tenth of the sum he had paid for them, he made a few inquiries about the city, among other laun-dries, to learn that the gentleman named Orville Brown must have more arms than human as he had on the same week left cuffs at about every laundry in N e w Y o r k , while on the left cuff of each pair was written, in indelible ink, the tip: " B u y A j a x Oil, any price under $50. Lynn to bull it."

T h e laundry man saw too late that he had been led into a trap, cunningly set and baited; and when a month later, the broker Brown got all his ill-gotten gains in A j a x wiped out by a short in copper, there was great rejoicing among the several thousand laundry em-ployers and employees, who had

been led into the unique trap of the stock market tip on the cuff.

There was great excitement in the little mining town of Tuxedo. A prospector had come down from the mountains spreading the news that gold had been found in large quantities at a place up in the mountains. Several years before numerous cabins had been built here and had later been deserted as no gold had been found. T h e gold was there, however, had they mined deep enough and now it had been rediscovered. Every one was making a wild dash to reach the place and stake out the most favor-able claims. A regular stampede had set out from Tuxedo where most of the mines were already g iv ing out.

A t Tuxedo was a man named Philip Merritson. H e had been a teacher in a small eastern college for a number of years. Ill health had caused his dismissal and he was ordered west. Together with his daughter Molly, he had wandered from place to place through the western states and had finally reached the town of Tuxedo. H e was not a business man and his little pile of savings was now ex-hausted. Just then came the news of the new gold fields just found, and filled with the hope of bettering his fortunes he was going to join the company of miners setting out.

But Fate had ordained otherwise. A contagious fever had been raging in T u x e d o a few weeks before and now it attacked Philip Merritson whose weak body was unable to throw it off. H e rapidly grew worse and became delirious. In his ravings he continually spoke of the

THE CRIMSON AND WHITE II

pitiful condition of their fortunes until Molly could stand it no longer.

W h y cannot I go to the mines ? " she asked herself. With Molly to think of a plan was to do it and without waiting for sober, second thought, she mingled with the throng of miners who were just starting.

T h e new mines were at length reached. T h e Tuxedo people were among the first arrivals and Molly secured a claim near the place where the gold had first been seen and took possession of an abandoned cabin there.

But the claims secured must be filed at the government office at Millton, a little town eight miles down the mountain. Crowds were now pouring in from places further distant and Molly hesitated about setting out again into the throng as there were many desperate looking men among the miners.

Just then two men stopped in front of the cabin, glanced at Molly and then one advanced toward her and said, " Where 's your father M i s s i e ? "

" He's ill at Tuxedo," replied Molly.

A glance passed between the two, then assuming a fiercer tone the spokesman of the two said or rather growled, " T h e n this claim ain't been registered and we're going to have it, s e e ? "

Molly drew back in fear, she had heard of claim jumpers but had never come in close contact with any before.

" I'll stay and see to the claim Pete," volunteered the man who had not yet spoken, " and you hike down to Millton."

Then he turned to trembling-Molly and said, " N o w you get out.

o r — " but Molly did not stay to hear the alternative.

However, she had no intentions of giving up so easily. She had no friends to help her but she deter-mined to beat the redoubtable ' ' P e t e " to Millton. H e had al-ready started, but she had seen him take the regular road. Over the mountain was a trail to Millton, overgrown in places, but still able to be traversed. It was shorter than the regular road, but harder to travel. T o go this way and to go quickly was Molly's only chance.

She started at once. T h e trail v/as at first unobstructed and Molly was half running, half walk-ing and swiftly covering the distance between her and her goal.

Soon, however, the way became rougher. A slide of slate like rock had swept over the narrow path and Molly had to go around it. She crawled through the underbrush, pushing aside the vines which caught at her with a thousand hands.

Her clothes were torn and her hands scratched by brambles. Her breath was coming in gasps. She stumbled, and slid down a bank, almost rolling into a deep stream which ran black and slimy through the dead leaves in the hollow. Grasping a tree, she leaned against it for a moment to recover her breath. Then with a shudder she plunged into the swollen stream, waded to the other bank and again started half running along the trail.

Only a dim light filtered through the dense foliage. T h e howl of a wildcat came from above and the soft pat, pat, of running feet could be heard through the deep silence. Glancing behind her, Molly saw a tawny shape slinking along the

THE CRIMSON AND WHITE II

trail a few yards off. Filled with terror, her feet scarcely touched the ground. Weariness was for-gotten and with wildly beating heart she sped on, on, how far she did not know.

Just when she was despairing of ever reaching Millton she saw its l ights—for it was now growing dusk—gleaming in the valley be-low. Hope now upheld her. She reached the Main street of the village and sank almost fainting on the steps of the registry office.

She arose quickly, however, stepped into the office and gave the boundaries of her claims to the agent who looked curiously at her flushed face and disheveled appear-ance. H e was not used to having young ladies bouncing into his office and breathlessly urging h i m — a government official—to hurry.

Stepping out of the registry she saw a group of men, among whom her eager eyes swiftly discerned the form of Pete laughing and joking, unmindful of any opposition to his plans.

Thinking discretion the better part of valor, now that she had what she desired, Molly did not wait to see him enter the registry.

A L E S S O N .

T h e old clock on the city hall tower struck nine as F r a n k E a t o n closed the door of Judge A r n o l d ' s study and stepped out into the dark rainy night. H e buttoned his coat collar c losely around his neck and pulled his cap wel l over his eyes to ward off the sleet that beat upon his face.

His head and heart ached as he w a l k e d on th inking of the man out of w h o s e house he had just gone. Gone, perhaps, to return no more, for Judge A r n o l d w a s as

bitter an enemy as he w a s fa i thful a friend.

H i s thoughts turned back to the sunny afternoon in Septem-ber, live years before, that he first w e n t to assist the Judge about his office outside high school hours.

D a y s were not long enough then for they were happy as w e r e also the nights spent together before the g l o w i n g fires or on the b ig spacious verandahs.

T h e n came the first break in the happiness, the first mar upon their friendship. A chill ran through his form as he recalled the morning he had found the case in the office and concealed it. AVhy had he deceived the J u d g e ? W h a t could have induced him to? H e did not deserve forg iveness then, but this t ime it w a s dif-ferent. W e l l might the Judge be suspicious of him, for this money had certainly disappeared myster-iously. And then to be turned a w a y b y the man w h o m he hon-ored and loved. It seemed intol-erable.

H e turned d o w n a side street and w a l k e d on till he came to an old-fashioned house. T a k i n g a k e y from his pocket he opened the door and crept sof t ly to his room. L o c k i n g the door he t h r e w him-self on the bed and like a child w h o s e heart w a s broken over the loss of some va luable t o y he sobbed himself into a troubled s lumber.

H o u r s w o r e into d a y s and days into weeks , but no w o r d f r o m Judge A r n o l d . H e must do some-th ing to shape a future for him-self, for little had he realized be-fore the importance of deve loping his o w n resources.

T h r e e years and t w o months of the last college year passed. It

THE CRIMSON AND WHITE II

w a s the n i g h t before T h a n k s -g i v i n g and F r a n k sat alone in his room, th inking of the b o y s w h o had departed for their T h a n k s -g i v i n g dinners. H i s t h o u g h t s w e n t back over his three stren-uous years . N o t one s ingle w o r d or line f r o m the J u d g e had he re-ceived. S o m e h o w his past seemed like a dream.

E x t i n g u i s h i n g the l ight he raised the w i n d o w shade and stood for some minutes in the silvery moonlight. A light knock on the .door caused him to start, jand with a loud, " Come; in," he turned to greet his caller.

T h e door opened s l o w l y ; he could scarce ly bel ieve his senses for there before him stood J u d g e A r n o l d . In his hand w a s a slip of paper w h i c h he held out to-w a r d F r a n k s a y i n g w i t h a vo ice that t rembled, " A t seven o 'c lock to-night I received this ."

T a k i n g the paper F r a n k read the s p r a w l i n g l ines; " J u d g e Arnold, it was I who took the money. I knew you would ac-cuse F r a n k E a t o n , I envied his prosper i ty and y o u r love for him. I t h o u g h t it w o u l d help me, but no indeed.

R a y B e a t y . ' '

H i s hands opened and the paper f luttered to the floor; as he took a step t o w a r d the Judge, his foot covered up the blot upon his happiness and his hand clasped that of the Judge.

A young Japanese, with the national love of cleanliness, came to London to study. A s he was a stranger in the city he had to select his own lodgings.

His first choice was not happy; the hall especially was very dirty. This the new comer did not like, but decided to say nothing then.

One rainy day the maid-servant put up this notice: " Please wipe you feet."

Seizing his opportunity the Jap-anese student wrote underneath: " On going out."

D u r i n g this first term of the year w e should all str ive to do our best. A f t e r the long vacat ion everyone ought to be ready to begin w o r k — t o try to better our last year's standard if we are old students, to place our standard as high as possible if we are new. If the year is begun well there will be no worry when examinations come at the end, but if it is n o t — well, perhaps the old students know what happens.

D u r i n g this first term of the year w e should all str ive to do our best. A f t e r the long vacat ion everyone ought to be ready to begin w o r k — t o try to better our last year's standard if we are old students, to place our standard as high as possible if we are new. If the year is begun well there will be no worry when examinations come at the end, but if it is n o t — well, perhaps the old students know what happens.

W e wish to thank those of the students w h o have s h o w n interest in the Crimson and White both b y subscr ib ing to it and by con-tr ibut ing to its departments. School spirit is no w h e r e s h o w n so wel l as in the support g iven to the school paper and it is p leasing

to note that N o r m a l does not lack that spirit. W e appreciate y o u r good-wil l and in return wi l l str ive to make the paper w o r t h y of y o u r assistance.

* * *

T h e Crimson and White ex-tends its heartiest w e l c o m e to all students entering " old N o r m a l " for the first time. W e hope that they wil l succeed in their school life and wil l add honor to the name of their A l m a Mater .

A s we have fallen victims to this department, we have the pleasure of welcoming this year's exchanges and wishing them a successful year.

The papers submitted to our con-sideration thus far have been the commencement numbers. These in our opinion, should be the best of the year. On the contrary, they are not. The majority allow the senior class to monopolize their columns. Of course, June is the senior's month, and they should have a large share in the June issues, but not at the expense of the other departments.

This applies to the High School Recorder (Winchester, Mass.)

The Lilliputian (Canton, N. Y . ) — T h e arrangement of your paper is untidy. A more compact ar-rangement of your department and the addition of a department for those notes scattered about your paper would be a decided improve-ment.

The Opinion (Peoria, 1 1 1 . ) — W e admire the evident loyalty which exists between your school and its alumni. W e would suggest that you criticize your exchanges in ad-dition to printing the list of papers.

The Rnss (San D i e g o ) — " Child-ren like pictures, you know," you told us when we published one pic-ture in our paper. There were enough in your June issue to amuse a kindergarten. Y o u might have printed a few in the other numbers and the effect on this particular one would have been less bewildering.

W e thank your exchange editor for her frank criticisms on ex-change departments. They have given us, the new editors an idea of what is expected of us.

The Vexillum, (Boston, Mass.) is the best paper we have received. Y o u r paper is excellent from your cover design to the jokes.

CARNEC.IE.

" M y Dear Mr. C a r n e g i e : — I see by the papers that you are very prosperous. I want to get a hymn book. It costs six shillings. I will bless you, Heaven will bless you and it will do much good.

" P. S .—Don' t send me the hymn book; send me the 6 shillings."

A school teacher having in-structed a pupil to purchase a grammar, the next day received a note thus worded, from the child's mother:

" I do not desire for Lulu shall ingage in grammar, as I prefer ingage in youseful studies and can learn her how to spoke and write properly myself. I have went thru two grammars and I can't say as they did me no good, I prefer her ingage in german and drawing and vocal music on the p i a n o . " — E x .

Mrs. Flint always demanded in-stant and unquestioning obedience from her children. One afternoon a storm came up and she sent her son John to close the trap door leading to the roof.

" But, m o t h e r — " said John. " John, I told you to shut the

trap door." " Y e s , but mother—" " J o h n , shut the trap door." " A H right, mother, if you say so,

b u t — " " J o h n ! " John slowly climbed the stairs

and shut the trap-door. T h e storm howled and raged. T w o hours later the family gathered for tea. W h e n the meal was half over A u n t

Mary had not appeared, and Mrs. Flint started an investigation. She did not have to ask many questions; John answered the first one: " Please, mother, she is up on the roof."

" W h a t do you mean by keeping me standing on the corner like an idiot ? " demanded an angry hus-band, whose wife had kept him waiting to go shopping with her.

" Now, really, dear," she replied sweetly, " I can't help the way you stand."

Spinster Jane was being con-doled with because she had no hus-band.

" Save your pity," she said in-dependently. " I have a dog that growls, a parrot that swears, a lamp that smokes, and a cat that stays out nights. Now why should I get married ? "

T h e bill poster is responsible for a startling announcement on a street-corner fence. B y accident or design a theatrical play bill was placed immediately above a placard issued by the Workingmen's Institute. T h e following is the result:

A benevolent person watched a workman laboriously windlassing rock from a shaft while a broiling sun was beating down on his bared head.

" M y dear man," observed the onlooker, " are you not afraid that your brain will be affected in the hot s u n ? "

The laborer contemplated him for a moment and then replied: " Do you think a man with an}' brains would be working at this kind of a j o b ? "

" Do you know where Johnny Locke lives, my little b o y ? " asked a gentle-voiced old lady.

" H e ain't home, but if you give me a penny I'll find him for you right oflf," replied the lad.

" A l l right, you're a nice little boy. N o w where is he ? "

" T a n k s — I ' m him."

" W h o can tell me," asked the Sunday-school teacher, " what be-came of the swine that had the evil spirits cast into them?"

Little Johnny, who reads the papers, raised his hand:

" Please, ma'am, they wus all made into deviled ham."

Oliver Herford once entered a doubtful looking restaurant in a small N e w Y o r k town and ordered a lamb-chop. A f t e r a long delay the waiter returned, bearing a plate on which reposed a dab of mashed potatoes and a much overdone chop of microscopical proportions with a remarkably long and slender rib attached. This the waiter set down before him and then hurried away.

" See here," called Herford, " I ordered a chop."

" Y e s sir," replied the man, " there it is."

" A h , so it is," replied Herford, peering at it closely. " I thought it was a crack in the plate."

A private, anxious to secure a leave of absence, sought his captain with a most convincing tale about a sick wife breaking her heart for his presence. T h e officer, familiar with the soldier's ways, replied:

" I am afraid you are not telling the truth. I have just received a letter from your wife urging me not to let you come home because you get drunk, break the furniture, and mistreat her shamefully."

The private saluted and started

to leave the room. H e paused at the door, asking: " Sor, may I spake to you, not as an officer, but as mon to mon ? "

" Y e s ; what is i t ? " " W e l l , sor, w h a t I am after

sayin' is t h i s — " approaching the captain and lowering his voice:

" Y o u and I are two of the most illigant liars the Lord ever made. I'm not married at all."

A little girl in Cleveland was playing with her trinkets on the parlor floor while an older sister was drumming with much persist-ency on the piano.

" Play louder, Eloria," spoke up the child.

The girl at the keys felt flattered and, with an elated smile, asked: " So you like to hear me play, do you darling ? "

" No, I don't," came the unex-pected and emphatic reply. " I wanted you to play louder so papa would tell you to stop."

Mrs. M. 's patience was much tried by a servant who had a habit of standing around with her mouth open. One day, as the maid waited upon table, her mouth open as usual, and her mistress g iv ing her a severe look, said:

" Mary, your mouth is open." " Yessum," replied Mary, " I

opened it."

" M i s s E d i t h , " asked a y o u n g man, " m a y I ask y o u , please, not to call me M r . D u r a n d ? "

" B u t , " said M i s s Edi th , v^ith great coyness , " our acquaintance is so short, y o u k n o w . W h v should I not call y o u t h a t ? "

" W e l l , " said the y o u n g man, " chiefly because m y name is Dupont."

A grocer w a s g u i l t y of some rather sharp practice on a cus-tomer, and the later stamped out of the store, r o a r i n g :

" Y o u ' r e a swindler, and I'll never enter y o u r doors again."

N e x t day, though, he came back and bought five pounds of sugar.

" D e a r me," said the grocer smi l ing in a f o r g i v i n g w a y , " I t h o u g h t y o u w e r e never g o i n g to enter m y doors again. '

" W e l l , I didn't mean to ," said the customer, " but y o u r s is the only shop in the place w h e r e I can get w h a t I w a n t . I am g o i n g to pot some bulbs and I need sand."

" I didn't come to fall in the river, I came to fish," replied the boy.

" No, W i l l i e , " said his mother, " N o more candy to-night. D o n t y o u k n o w y o u can't sleep on a full s tomach ?"

" T h a t ' s all r ight m a m a , " said W i l l i e , " I can sleep on m y back, can't I ? "

A truly e loquent parson had been preaching for an hour or so on the mortal i ty of the soul.
