Be iaVooe of the best pinch bitters In
the American league. It ta true be fell
down la tbo Orat game of the world's
aeries when a hit would bar meant a
run. but he more than made up for
this when hi the third game of the
worUfa series, with the Athletics one

II was aa old man who had cow
dowa from the luountalna one sum
Bier's dly. and as w sat oa tbe stepa
of tbo vlllago poatofflc ho told tola
story: '
Jy aaybur. Jim FUklna, la bat in'
boa pa of t rubble with hla two hoys
Just now. Ooe of 'em waa over to
the railroad t'other day and wanted
to fight the tmllgtn, and t'other went
to towa and got hla ey almost put
out la a fight. Reckon they'll grow
up to be a cantankerous pair. I had
a son 8am, tbo only child we ever
had and ho died sou five y'ars ago,
la on way I'm sorry and In another
way glad. It mad tarn kinder lonely
to her him go, but I could finger up
that It waa fur the best
"That boy had a powerful good
heart la him aa a gineral thins, but
thar was day wbea tb devil seemed
to her possession of him. It wasn't
no good to ewttch him, and when h
was outer, aorta It waan't no good to
argy with him. II waa fifteen y'ars
old when I cum bom from tbe waa,
and hla bead waa swelled up bis 'nuS
far a man of fo'ty. Be finally got so
thst he felt Ilk rubbln up agia m.
I waa at work la tb garden on day
when he rami homo from tbe Co'ners
a-eplttiu right and left, aod blmeby
he cuma out to m and ees:
"Top, niebbe yo calls yo'self tb
best man oa this yer mounting.
- 'Mebbe I do,' sea I as 1 .looks at
him outer my left eye.
"'But you ain't, though, and I kia
prove It'
Then who IsT

and hla cognomen ar 8am. Dad. I'm
goto' to whop yo'." '
. 'Better git Into the house, boy. and
her yo'r mother gin yo' some bread
and batter and laasee on It'
"But that boy bad tb wust kind of
awell head," said tb old man. "and be
waa alrnest In thlnkln' he could whop
his fmp. II gits higher and higher.
and bimeby h aalla fur me. I knowed
what waa cumin", and before he could
wink twio I flopped him on hla back
and then whopped him till be hollered
for merry. Be lived two y'ars arter
that, but ho didn't try that game oa
roe any too'.
"The older he growed the more can
tankerous be got and one day tb ol
woman rum to mo with tears In her
eye and sea;
" 8am'a a-gittin' wusser and wuaser
all the time, and I'm almost bopln' tb
Lawd will take him away.'
Tb Lawd couldn't manage him If
be did git him.' sea 1.
" Mebb he could. SJebbe he's got a
pen up thar In heaven to put Sam Into
and keep him till be'a bin made over.
I'mgola' to dy my shawl black and
fix up a mourn In' bonnet for that hoy
of ours will b brung bom dead befo'
be'a a month older.'
"Well, so be was so bo waa." said
the old man. with a touch of pathos In
his voice. "Be was down to the Co'ners
on day to blow and brag with the
crowd a-hangln' out thar in them days,
when a man coma ridln' on a mewl to
y that BUI Clark'a bull bad broken
out of the field and was com In" up the
road. That bull was a big un and had
hooked two bosses to death. As the
man was glrln tb alarm the bull
abowed up down tbe road. - He was
pawln' tb alrth and makln' tbe bear
ens quake with his beller. and slrh as
had b oases tied up waa mighty spry
to turn 'em loos and git 'em away.
Nobody didn't propone to git In tbe
way of that bull apd take chances-
nobody but my son" Sam. It was
chance fur him to show off. and be Hi
up and yelled:
" This Is tb day I her been llvtn'
for. I'll go fo'th aod Uke that ball by
tbe horns and flop him on hla bark.'
"Tbe men tried to asgy with Sam,
but be was sot snd. pulllo' off bis
coat and flingin' down his hat be
walked out and begins to paw and bel
ler same as the bull. Tbe critter stops
to look st him. snd fur s minit or two
he must hev wondered what It was.
Then bis eyes began to glare and bis
tall to stand out. and tbe crowd hol
lered to Sam to git over the fence.
ue never minded 'em. but with a roar
and a beller be run In on tbe bull, was
tossed twenty feet In the air. and when
the animal got through with him there
wann't much left to bury. A uan
cam up to break tbe news to us. I
wasn't home at tbe time, and he set
to tbe ole woman: '
'Mrs. Sliced, ar yo'r son Sam home
todayT
'Fie ain't' says she.
'And do yo' know why be sln'tT
'Not exactly, but I reckon It's kase
he's sumwhar elne.'
'That's right. Mrs. Rneed perfeck
ly right and proper- Tor son Sam
sln't home and ain't roraln home, kase
he's got blzness up thar in the land of
angels and golden streets, which will
detain him fur sum timer
"It was a sad case, but me and the
ole woman bev alias reckoned that
rrovldence bad a hand in It. Sam
had got that cantankerous that tba
wss no holdln Mm bark. Be'd got to
fans around or bunt. If he hadn't
tackled tbe bull be might her got Into
a row In town on lecksban day and
bin the means of a dozen men bein'
killed. Tea. It was better so. I bated
to see him go. and he was an only
child, but cantankerouaness waa bound
to smasn mm an to bits sooner or
later, and we bad to make the best
of It and reckon that Provldenc know
d bis blzness.
