THEOREQON STATESMAN: Fill L AY. OCTOBER 21 1887.
HE WAS GOISG TO HOLLAND.
A COWBOY FIREJIAN.
"PHIL. ARMOUR'S MISSIuy.
A TEST OF COURTESY.
Sailor ire scarce in this section at
present, and this gives rise to many
amnaing attempts on the part of oar
"shipping masters" to enlist "green
horns." Georgians generally are not of
a roving disposition, and Georgia negroes
are particularly averse to being carriei to
forejgn ports. Occasionally a "cnllod"
man takes into bis head that there are
other places as good as home, and into J
him the "sbpiping master" plunges his
talons with rare relish. There is money
in a sailor who is not familiar with the
ropes, and money is the shipping mas
ter's deity.
Forster Maxwell, colored, came down
on a rait of timber the other day. Inad
vertently he exercised his vocal powers
on a veritable sailor sons;. The shipping
master picked np his ears and chuckled
inwardly.
"Know something about sailoring?"
asked the wolf.
"Guess I does. Vsm been rnning on a
steam boat in the ribber for two months,"
answered the lamb.
"How would yon like to go to Hol
land ?" continued the purveyor of tars.
"Fast rate, only i'se got only one shirt
wid me." said the innocent darkey.
"Well, I'll boy another, and when yon
get to Holland yon can bny as many aa
yoo want."
"How far to Holland?"
"A little bit farther than from La ruber
City to Parien."
"All right," said the guileless np-
country darkey; "If Jim Pearson comes
down on a raft in the mornin', ax him to
tell Eliza that I'se going to Holland and
won't be back fer two or three days."
Foster Maxwill is now, much to his
discomfiture, we imagine, sailing the
ocean bine on the British bark Perpetoa,
while the wily shipping master with
swelled purse, is on the lookout for new
victims.
THE FATE OF THE APOSTLES.
The following brief history of the fate
of the apostles may be new to those
whose reading has not been evangelical :
Ft. Matthew is supposed to have suf
fered martyrdom, or was slain with
sword at the city of Ethiopia in Egypt.
St. Luke was hanged upon an olive
tree in Greece.
St. John was put into a caldron of
boiling oil at Home, and escaped death.
He afterwards died a natural death at
Enhesus. in Asia.
Ft. James the Great, was beheaded at
Jerusalem.
St. James the Less was thrown from
Pinnacle or wing of the temple and then
beaten to death with a fuller's clnb.
St. Philip was banged np against a
Pillar at Hierapolis, a city of Phrygia.
St. Bartholomew was flayed alive by
the command of a barbarous king.
St. Andrew was bound to a cross
whence he sffeached unto the people on
til he expired.
St. Thomas was ran through the body
with a lance, at Coromandcl, in tbe East
Indies.
St. Jade was shot to death with ar
rows.
St. Simeon Zealot was crucified in
Persia.
St. Matthias was f.rt stoned and then
leheai!ed.
St. Barnabas was stoned to death by
the Jt'ws at Salania.
St. Paul was beheaded at Rome by the
tyrant Nero.
INTERRUPTED BY A WEDDING.
The dreary monotony of a divorce case
was dragging its soiled length along in
Judge Hick's court yesterday. The wyfu
contestants were listening eagerly when
a handsome, broad-shouldered youth
entered the room with a young lady on
his arm. He was overflowing with jov
His face was constantly wreatlted in
smiles which seemed to fill the gloomy
court room. She was happy, too bash
fullv. surreptitiously happy and she
looked shvlv from behind her stalwart
lover's arm.
Thev wanted to be married. The di
vorce suit was suspended at once, for the
court will stop unmaking a marriage to
make one at any time. The ceremony
was performed. The young man drew
out a five-dollar bill and placed it before
the judge. With the brightest smile and
a speech as irallant as a Chestertiel
could make, he presented it to the bride
The little lady accepted the money, and
with a nuick. graceful movement she
drew the bououet of roses from Iter
bosom and placed it before the judge
With a bow he received the rosebuds
and returned to tbe divorce suit, but the
sweet odor pervaded the dingy court
room all that day. Minneapolis Jour
nal.
THE POWER OF IMAGINATION.
Tin following H a substance of what a
leading dentist said the other day: He
was engaged with some gentleman in dis-
cnwirtir the virtue of remedies used to
avoid the pain catwed by the extraction
of teeth when a Udy who wanted one of
her molars nulled entered the office. The
dentUt. in order to prove what he had
been aavimr. told her he had some of the
new remedy and would nse it, so that
she woald not feel any pain. She was
well pleased.; and after being! seated in
the chair, be nibbed a little water on her
gums, ami pulling her tooth tossed it np
to the ceiling, exclaiming: "There! That
uWthurtanv.didit?" The lady was
positive that she felt no pain, and went
away praising the new remedy. Osk-

A SURE INDEX.
A writer in the Boston Journal says
"If I want to tell a woman's temper
watch her eyelids. Yon can 'read a man
the same way, but not so readily.
woman with a fiery temper will move
her eyelids with a snap, and that snap
betrays her. Another who is easy-going
and hard to arouse move her eyelids

tion."
I'm a reformed cowboy," be said,
and I want a job."
"Were yoo ever connected with tbe
fire department?" asked the chief, to
whom application has been made.
No, but I reckon a fire engine doesn't
ran any faster'n a Texas steer or Colo
rado cyclone. The buffaloes are gone,
and there's no more men oat on the
ranches worth a loaded shell, so I'm
going to settle down on the effete cus
toms of white men in the b tat as. I've
got to take it gradual, though, for a man
who's lived where I have cant gallop
straight into civilized society. I have
beard tell of the lively times the fire boys
have, and I think I can be tame enough
to be one of yon."
The chief rather like. I tbe appearance
the American Arab, especially as be
was a master at horse-traiuinc. and ac
cordingly the cowboy was installed aa a
pipeman on trial.
That night he observed that the other
firemen, when retiring, placed their
clothes by tbe bedside, ready to be
slipped on at a second's warning. The
cowboy, gathering tbe idea that time is
every thing at a fire, determined to risk
no delays. Accordingly he slept in bis
clothes, having previously hang his
asso and pistols on the harness of the
engine horse. In the dead of the night
an alarm came ia. Before the firemen
had slipped in their boots the cowboy
hac sprang from his bed, mounted the
horse to which he had fixed his "working
tools," and was dashing down the street
at a break -neck speed ia the direction of
a column of smoke and name that could
be seen risiug on the horizon.
"Hold on ! Come back ! ' shouted the
other firemen. But the son of the plains
heard tuem not. lie was on his way to
the fire, and was indifferent as to wheth
er the other bovs got there or not. He
evidently thought the engine's motive
power was steam, for. ie left the crew
with only one horse.
The cowboy fireman was personally
ambitious to excel all his new associates,
but at the same time he was desirous
that bis company should get first water
on the flames. Only a thin line of spec
tators was around tbe burning tenement
when he arrived on the scene.
"Look out for old Texas," be howled
swirling about through the people and
literally surrounding the building so
fiercely did he drive his horse to and fro.
In his hand was the coiled lasso, and
from his belt the brace of pistols reflected
the light from tbe flashes of flame. Every
one shrank from him as from a band of
Zulus.
I'reeently a hose company swnng
around ready for action. A nozzle was
pointed toward the flames and soon
stream of water would have poured on
the fire. The cowboy's eyes took in the
situation. It was an opposition company
His lasso rose in the air and its tighten
ng noose in falling encircled the nozzle
of the hoee.
"Time enough for you fellows to squirt
after our company gets here." the cow
boy said, whipping op his horse and haul
ing the hose and clinging pipemen after
him. Down the street be dragged the
hose, determined to carry it beyond
reach. Horse, hoee and rider soon disap
peared from view of the thunderstruck
people.
The Tames rolled on.
The cowboy. Oh. where was he?
Nine hours later the police found him
But they didn't take him. On his brow
was tbe flush of great achievements ; in
bis hand the looped lariat. In a yard
which he had seized in the name of the
government and "the Boss Fire Com
pany were a hundred cattle or more I
The cowboy, in hauling away the ene
my's hose from the fire, had encountered
droves of animals which law-breaking
citizens permit to roam the streets. The
ruling passion of a cowboy drove out all
other thoughts.
Tbe tenement burnt to the gronnd, but
there has not been such a job of corralling
since the cow ordinance was assed.

A HAD MAN WITH A BOWIE.
"I'm from Californy, I m;j-ehyar
me? I'm from the slops. I kin fite my
heft in wildcats. I prefer wildcats; but
now I want to eat up a dude, a blank,
blank, blankety blank of a dude. Fetch
me a dude till I sliver him. I own this
end of this blank, blank town just now.

It was a Western gentleman, says the
Sun, favoring the metropolis with a pass
ing call. He stood in front of the World
office a little before 8 o'clock last evening,
and held at bay a swarm of alarmed
looking newsboys. The bigger the crowd
got the more he slashed around, making
an ever widening circle about him as he
drandished a long, ugly looking knife
and extended a general invitation to the
masses to come and , have their livers
carved. !
"D'ye see me?" be went on, "d'ye
hvar me me. Wildcats is my regular
vittles. I own this end of tbe town.
This hyar sidewalk's my private prop
erty. I take it because, I want it. Don t

Jast then be can eh t sunt on the out
skirts of the crowd of a policeman's
buttons moving calmly down on him.
"Good evenin'," be said to the assem
bly. "You may hev your dam town
now. I'm throuzh with it."
His knife disappeared in a twinkling,
and in another moment he was around
the corner in Beekman street, aa mild
and law-abiding a citizen aa any who
were abroad.

When the Armour mission, up on Thir
ty-third street, was started with its
$500,090 endowment, it was hard to de
cide just how to manage the religious end
of it. Joseph Armour had directed in tbe
will by which ha gave it (100,000 that It
should be non-ectarian. Phil. Armour,
who added $400,000 to the original fund,
was altogether opposed to the miasiot
being any thing bat a broad, humanita
rian charity, with plenty of religion, of
course, bat of that generic sort only
which woald be as acceptable to the
Romanist as to the Methodist, and as
agreeable to the Episcopalian as to
the Baptist. The reverend gentleman
who was finally selected to take charge
of the religious welfare of the institution
was given in general terms an idea of
this prrpose of the founders. One day
be received a summons to come down
town to the office. He got there prompt
ly and was beckoned over to the big
packer's desk. Armour wheeled around
in bis chair a conple of times as if to se
lect his vocabularr, looked the man of
God over carefully and then launched
forth his own ideas of theology. " l on re
riving those youngsters too much grape
and canister," he began, slowly. "Hell
fire and brimstone are all right for the
old sinners, but the mission isn't for
them." "Now," he added, with the
same emphasis he'd use to one of his
office clerks, I want yoo to change
around and try another plan. If you
don't you'll drive all those children
awav.
"When yoo begin your service in the
morning," he said, "yon can read a
chapter from the Bible. Something
short. Then have a little prayer, some
thing short; not longer than that" meas
uring off about a foot with his forefingers.
"Then 1 want yon to sing sing a good
many times." he repeated, emphatically.
"Then tell a story," he continued,
"something with a point to it and a
moral, but short. Then von can have
another little prayer, but mind you, not
longer than that," holding np hi
hands about six inches apart this time.
i-Mr. Armour," remarked the preach
er rather jocosely, "I suppwe you can
run a packing house, but you don t know
much about religion."
"Well," said the builder of the mit
sion very sharply, "will you try t?"
"Oh, yes," was the answer.
Phil Armour's theological scheme has
been in vogue ever since that interview,
and has been a great success. He ."
up every Sunday to the morning chil
dren's service and watches the thing
grow. "Don't you mind the old fellows
or the played-out sinners," he constantly
adjures the minister in charge. "If you
see old fellow in the gutter, even,
don't stop, but keep your eye on the little
fellow ahead. Look out for him."
Armour's theology has filled up the
benches, and they hold 1,800 people.

THE SCOTCHMAN.
In his daily litanies the Scotchman en
ters into tbe most trifling details with
careful forethought ; the list of favors be
has recieved and for which he. has to re
turn thanks ; the list of the blessings he
wishes for, and will certainly receive, for
God cannot refuse Jiim anything all this
is present to his prodigious memory. He
dots his i's, as we say in France, and if
by chance he should happen to employ a
rather far-fetched expression, he explains
it to the Lord, eo there shall be no dan
ger of misunderstanding what he asks for
he corners Him. Thus I was one day
present at evening prayers in Scotch fam
ily, and heard the master of the house,
among a thousand other supplications,
make the following : "O Lord, give us
receptivity ; that is to say, O Lord, the
power of recieving impressions."
The entire Scotch character is there.
