State In the little hamlet of Johnsonburg Wyoming County lives the only sur vivor of the famous old time Christy minstrels the pioneers in negro min strelsy William A Porter by name or as everybody in those part calls him Uncle Bill Mr Porter is an old man now being nearly SO years of age but in form he is erect and his step is firm iWhen he relates reminiscences of those early days when minstrelsy was strug gling for a -foothold his eyes are as bright as ever He has a wonderful memory and the stories he tells of his eventful career before the footlights are very entertaining Asked where the first minstrel com pany was organized he replied Ed win P Christy formed the first com pany of negro minstrels the world ever saw Its inception was in the city of Buffalo in 1S42 The idea was a new one and the people of good society were inclined to look askance at a perform ance that delineated Jim Crow How ever adverse opinion was gradually overcome and in 1S45 the first perform ance in a regular theater was given in the old Eagle Street Theater where now stands the Hotel Iroquois Buffalo society gave Christy and his company the stamp of its approval and his prosperity as a minstrel manager was thereafter assured It was at this time that Mr Porter joined the as a banjoist and bass singer ranking his debut April 5 1S45 Stephen C Foster the composer of over 100 songs among which were fcCWay Down Upon the Suwannee Bib ber My Old Kentucky Home and Massas in the Cold Cold Ground Tvas a member of the troupe Mr Por ter sang Way Down Upon the Su wannee Ribber long before it ever saw the light in a publishers office In those days crownless headgear over alls and rag bag clothes constituted the minstrels wardrobe except the quar tet always a prominent feature ia ev ery minstrel organization who were attired in full dress black suits and white vests Mr Porter remained with the Chris tys nino years visiting nearly every town and city of prominence in the United States Canada England and Australia finally becoming manager of the company Retiring from the organ ization in 1S54 he settled on his little farm in the county of Wyoming Rochester Herald A Good Line Ah sighed the

AWAKENING He Hnd a Reason for Not Thinking of Her All the Time She looked into his eyes softly ten derly tremulously He was her hus band and her hero Surely he could be that seeing that they had been mar ried only a year Next year he might be only her husband but this is not a story of anticipation She was a dear housewifely little woman plump and pretty and ever studying how home could be made hap pier for her hero She made a perfect bower of their sitting room their din ing room was a feast in itself and from their kitchen came such seductive sauces made by her own fair hands that the husbands club dishes seemed to be as ashes in his mouth by com parison Never a day that he went to his work but she had him bring something home with him which under her magic fin gers became a coach from a pumpkin as in the fairy times Cinderellas god mother made beauty from unlovelines It was in the gloaming now and lite soft light of the evening lamp fell upon the busy little body ministering to the comfort of her hero in his dressing gown and slippers smoking his cigar and made her seem like a butterfly in the reddening light of the morning She sat down on a low stool at his feet at last and looked into his eyes softly tenderly tremulously He had been away from her all day in the busy marts of trade Darling she whispered like the coo ing of a bird it is so good to have you here And it is very good to be here he respondeu blowing a wreath of blue smoke out over her head You have been away from me all dayall day and it has seemed very long to me she murmured Do you think only of me when you are away she asked in a little frightened voice He did not reply at once Well no Kitty he said at length I dont Oh Harry was all she could say as she threw her face into her hands upon his knees I dont he went on mercilessly because it keeps me so busy thinking of the things you ask me not to forget to bring home that I really dont have time to think of anything else Then she pulled his ears and kissed him four times in rapid succession How Bees Mark a Tree Bees have a language of their own said a western bee expert the other day They carry different meanings by their buzzings and they understand each other like a top but I found out one thing about them that I dont think anybody else ever did bees have got a written language and they send com munications to each other I found this out after years of close observation When the bees get too awfully numerous in a tree fill up the hollow so that its too crowded for comfort certain wise bees are sent out to prospect When a pioneer of this kind finds a big likery looking treewith a hospitable-looking wind crack in it he takes plenty of time and goes over it carefully Sometimes he finds that while the place looks nice and commodious on the outside thCknotliole leads into a shallow l eceptacle or the crack is not deep enough to accommodate even a bachelor bee much less a whole brood In such a case he gets out and writes a message to all and sundry bees that may come along that way This tree is no good That knothole is a fake and the wind crack is a frost pass it up He writes this with his tail string ing honey along aswe string ink If the tree is all right he puts up a sign to that effect The next bee scents the honey lights and reads the first words of the message and if the report is un favorable flies off saying and doesnt worry himself any further about it Oh yes bees are cute and if youve got the idea that theyre slow its be cause you are slow yourself Denver Post A Rats Tail A rats tail is a wonderful thing The great naturalist Cuvier says that there are more muscles in this curious ap pendage than are to be found in that part of the human anatomy which is most admired for its ingenious struc turenamely the hand To the rat in fact its tail serves as a sort of hand by means of which the animal is ena bled to crawl along narrow ledges or other difficult passages using it to bal ance with or to gain a hold It is pre hensile like the tails of some mon keys By means of it the little beast can jump up heights otherwise inac cessible employing it as a projectile spFing Odd Idea in

Dauphin was 7 years old at the time In his fourth year he had his feet washed with a damp cloth wen he was G they washed his feet in tepid water in the Queens basin for the first time The Match Trust Spreading Out The match trust has several factories n Europe and has now absorbed an important establishment in South America Every one should put a guard on him self or he will find that he enjoys those occasions most when he is en couraged to talk freely of his griev ances A FABLE Or SOCIETY Being Bather Hard on the Woman Who Had Aspirations A plain and sensible husband and father who was making a modest live lihood in the retail dry goods business had a wife who was ambitious to shine In society She was quite well aware that her husbands means were not of sufficient magnitude to permit an extra ordinary dazzle in that glittering gal axy of gaiety glamour and gentility but she banked on the matrimonial alli ance of at least one of her two beauti ful daughters with an aged millionaire who was ready at any moment to mar ry any pretty girl who would accept him Naturally enough It was not to be expected that any young and pretty girl could love any old thing like he was but then he was so rich that love might well be asked to take a back seat Now the husband of this ambitious lady and the father of the two beauti ful daughters was foolish enough to think that love mixed with matrimony better than money did and he was averse to the machinations of his wife to dispose of either of the daughters to the millionaire at a price One day the lady In no pleasant humor spoke to her husband on the subject of his opposition I should think she said that you would have some ambition for your daughters You have never been able to furnish them with the means their beauty accomplishments and position demand and now when I am doingmy utmost to do a parents part by at least one of them you must oppose my ef forts and seek to thwart my purpose I should think you would show some sign of appreciation of the attention and honor paid us by the wealthy gen tleman whom I so highly respect Forgive me my dear responded the husband contritely When the gentleman comes this evening I will obey you and show some sign of ap preciation Upon this the wife was greatly mol lified and the husband went down town to his store returning In the evening a little later than usual but quite cheerful At half past 8 oclock the wealthy gentleman called and shortly after the lady had gone in to meet him her hus band followed her bearing in his hands an artistically painted card fully a yard square It is the sign I promised for the gen tleman he said handing it to his wife and she read upon it in large letters Please Call On Us Before Purchasing Elsewhere Thereupon the lady fell into a state of madness from which she has scarcely yet recovered and the husband is tak ing his meals down town and sleeping in his store Rhode lslaads Fine New Capitol Rhode Island is the smallest State
