SISTER JONES’ CONFESSION.
I thought the deacon liked me. ylt
I warn't adzackly shore of it,
Fer, mind ye, time and I me ag'ln
When jiners ’ud be cumin in
I'd seed him shakin hands as free
With all the aistern as with me!
But jurin last revival, where
He called on me to lead in prayer
An kneeled there with me, side by side,
A-whisper’u “he felt sanctified
Jes’ tetchin of my gyarment's hem.”
That settled things as fur as them
Thare other wimmin was concerned!
And—well, I know I must ’a* turned
A dozen colors! Flurried? La!
No mortal sinner never saw
A glauder widder than the one
A-kneelin there and wonderun
Who’d pray! So glad, upon my word.
I railly couldn't thank the Lord!
—James Whitcomb Riley.
ONE DAY’S FISHING.
f "Like a blooming idiot," eaid the ma­
jor, "I agreed to take the colonel fishing,
f "Well, the next afternoon, which was
Saturday, he came around with a tish-
iug rod that I gave him, and when I got
iuto the cab blame me if he didn't have
a trunk. ‘Got my things in that,’ said
he, and may I eternally fry if there
I weren’t things enough in that trunk to
stock a pawnshop. By ged, he had every-
■ thing from evening clothes to a patent

and the major chuckled.
! "We started for Mud Run, out in
Pennsylvania. I'd never been there be­
fore, but a man told me there was good
fishing there. He was a liar, by the way.
"About the time we got started the
| colonel wanted to smoke, and by the
hind hobs cf Gehenna if he hadn't
packed all the cigars in that bloody
trunk. When 1 cussed, he tried to get
up in the baggage car and was nearly
killed. Then he got Borne bad cigars

and the whisky was in that confounded
trunk.

"When the boy waked us inthe morn­
ing, the colonel kicked because he had to
get up so early. He had the deuce of a
time finding his things in that infernal
trunk, and he kicked because I got im
pa tie.it.
"The woman at the hotel looked queer
when we got down. 'Going fishing?' says
she. 'You'd better look out for the con­
stable. It's against the law to fish round
here Sundays.'
"Then the colonel got suspicious and
said lie didn't want to be locked up. 1
got him into the wagon, and the driver
s lys: 'Better look out for the constable.
It's against the law to ttz.i round here
Sundays.'
" 'Say.' says the colonel. 'I'm not going
to get lo»-’e l up and bring i tem .1 dis
grace up...i my family.' I clioke<l him
off finally, and we started. Then we met
a farmer, and he 'lowed that we’d get in
trouble if we fished on Sunday. The
driver grinned and the colonel, like tl.e
eternal galoot he is, says, ‘I told you so.'
It took i le about 10 minutes to choke
him off. but i.e growled all the w ,y to
the stream.
"Say.” continued the major, "did you
ever see the colonel catch trou t? No? Well,
neither did anybody else. He couldn't
catch a tront in a week of leap years. By
ged, it was a sight to see him whip
the stream. It was like driving balky
mules over a broken bridge. He banged
that river until half the fish in it were
scared to death, and I guess he thought
lie could catch t out by knocking them
stone dead with his rod. He lost about
t wo dozen flies trying to cast half the
length of his rod. and then be got his
line all tangled up in the bushes. Did
yon ever hear the colonel swear? Well,
bodcarriers and river pirates aren't iu it
with the colonel. Talk about breaking

i .tough to send an army to perdition for
eternity.
