"The elevated railroad has just had tojpay twenty thousand dollars be cause one of its guards attacked a pas senger and smashed him in the face,'' said Mr. Skeemer to Mr. Plotz, accord ing to the New York World. "Now, I have a scheme. You and me aren't do ing anything just now, and we might put it into practice." "What is it?" demanded Plotz. "Ill get a job as brakeman on the el evated, you get on my train and then 111 attack vou. As soon as I see you I become uncontrollable, make a wild dash for you, kick you in the stomach, knock out your teeth, black your eye, and then throw you out of the win dow. You sue the company, all the si passengers testifying that the assault was entirely unprovoked, as it was, and the jury will award you anywhere from twenty thousand to nity tnousanu dollars. We divide evenly, of course. The bigger licking 1 give you the more money we get." "Yes," interrupted Flotz, "1 get tne licking, and 'we' get the money. Sup pose I be the brakeman 1 1 used to sweep out a railroad station, and I'll take to the business easier than you. Besides I'm a harder puncher than you. After I cet through with you the job would be worth seventy-five thousand dollars at least. Iiow about it?"

He Baurded Life and Popularity In the Cause of Abolition. Before he was thirty he had made up his mind that it was his duty to do what he could for the relief of the unfortun ate negroes who were held in bondage in the south. In 1833 he wrote a pam phlet called "Justice and Expediency," in which he considered the whole ques tion of slavery, and declared that it should cease forever. Three years later, writes Prof. Brander Matthews in St. Nicholas, he became secretary of the Anti-Slavery society. In 1838 he went to Philadelphia to edit the Penn- rsylvania Freeman: and so boldly did he advocate the right of the negro to own himself that the printing otlice was Backed by a mob and burned. Then, as more than once afterward for the same cause, Whittiur was in danger of his life. Whittier showed physical cournr'e in lacing the ruiuans who wished to pre vent free speech; but he hud revealed the higher moral courage in casting his lot with the little band of abolitionists. Up to this time he hud looked forward to holding public ofllce, as well he might, when many another journalist was stepping from the newspaper desk nto public life. hen lie becuine one of the small band who denounced slavery, he gave up all chance of otlice. He also had literary ambition, but so strong was the power of the slave owners then, and so intolerent were they, that most editors and publishers were sorely intimidated, and declined to print not only any attack on slavery, I but even the other writings of un au thor who was known on an abolitionist. Thus Whittier, in identifying himself with the anti-sluvevy movement. thought that he was giving up Ids lit erary future also, lie made his deci sion promptly, and he never regret ted it. Indeed, in later life he said ton boy of fifteen to whom he wo giving counsel: "My lud, if thou woulilst win success. Join yourself to some unpopu lar but noble cause. THE BICYCLE CANNON. How h. dan.
