Incident hnpponoi nt the long counter of a
Farnam street house which provoked n
emllo. Between 12 mid 1 o'clock the other
tiny , whti the placeIs thronged , n young fol
low In a suit of store ctothoi winch almost
audibly protested against bolng worn on miy
day but Sunday , perched hlmsoll on one of
the high stool * nnd deposited a pasteboard
valise on the counter ,
"How do you soil your coftool1' ho asked
the nearo.it waiter. Ho was Informed that It
was It cants u cup , and doaidud thut ho
would hiivo n oup. The waiter brought him
hit coHoo and tossed ever a napkin with the
usual quoit pitching Ilourlsh ,
"Thanks ; I have a napkin of ray own , "
said the youth , shoving It back. Than ho
produced n key tlod to the corner of a pocket
handkerchief ana unlocked the grip. First
bo produced u snnw white napkin or generous -
ous dimensions and spread It on the counter ,
and then ono by ouo tbo article * ot his
lunch such n lunch as only the good old
mother knows how to put up. To see It
took some of the spectators a long way from
the nuUy cnophouso back to the lazy ,
dreamy days on the farm , nnd they smollcd
the Bwcotnujs of the buckwheat field and
heard the droning hum of the boos ; they
hoard Mary singing In the great , cool cellar
among the tlorcd rows ot milk pans with
their yellow oroamandtho wondorlul shelves
of preserves and bins of frultund vegetables ;
they hoard the droon of the spinning wheel
upstairs , the croaking twitter ot the swal
lows at tholr mud houses under the caves of
the big barn , the cluck nnd clutter of the
poultry , the calling ot the men In the wheat ,
Hold down near the "sugar bush , " and they
sighed for the da.va \ \ non the skies were
eternally blue nnd they rolled In the long
grass of the orchard and watched the glint of
the russets nnd wlnosaps In the sunlight and
the soft whlto clouds sailing shlpllko across
the sky. Tbo young fellow bad the saino
concrou ! ) pieces of pic , the same snowy bread
and golden butter , the sumo slices of cold
chicken and horaocurod ham , the same lunch
that our mothers' packed In our baskets
when wo loft the old homo for the lost time.
When ho hnu finished no mushed all the
crumbs Into the napkin and locking up the
valtso banded the waiter his nickel.
"Haven't you got n chock ! " nskod the
waiter. ,
"Check ! No. there Is the money. "
"Givo It to the cashier. "
"Why ? Don't you want itl"
The waiter picked up the nickel and the
ticket mul pro sod them Into the lad's hand.
"Now , " said ho , "do you see that man sit
ting ever there at the diuk with a pale cost
of mustache. Well , you Just toke this ticket
and put It down In front of blm nnd put the
nickel on top of It BO It won't blow away
nnd than just walk right on out and it will
bo all right. " Ho did exactly as bo was told.
Ill ) Still Smokes.
The acutoncss of the average Omaha boy is
r proverbial , and many stories have been told
of his doings and sayings that for Uoptb.
of thought nnd flnosso really place him at
the forefront of Juvonllo prodigies. But It
remained for tin Omaha lad of 1'J or 1 ! ) sum
mers , who daily attends tha sessions of tbo
High school lu search of knowlodpo nt least ,
ho attends pvory day excepting Saturdays
to cap the climax ot all the brilliant and ox-
cruclatlnply funny things that our city's
udoloscotit humanity Is given credit for.
Ever since tbo first few years of bis child
hood be has been under iho fostering care of
a dear old mint , who has ever gratified his
childish wnlms , and allowed evou greater
liberties than the average boy enjoys , nnd to
the lad's credit , bo it said , ho has but seldom
violated the conlldonco she has placed In
him. But , llko other boys of that
nge , tobacco in. , om > form or another
possessed u great attraction for him ,
and ttirown , as ho , is among the many
nnd dllloront characters of good fellowship ,
is It to bo wondered at that no was not long
in acquiring the haolt of smelting !
Above all things tils aunt clotcsts tobacco ,
nud Hho can detect even ttio faintest trace of
it in n pockotor among too clothing. For
many evenings on the lau's ' return from
Bchool ho carried with him Into her presence
the odor of tobacco smoke and when quos-
tlonod by her aald that ho bad walked part
way nomu with sorno boys who were smok
ing .
"No , ma'am ! ho novcr amolcod ; indeed the
very smell of tobacco made him sick ; and
tlior. you know , auntlo , I know you don't
want too to. "
The old lady was far tbo inoinuut satlsllod ,
hut after thinning tbo matter ever for a
-.wlillo laid her plans to catch tbo young man.
nnd so tbo next evening whnn ho returned
from school she agam dotcctca the odor of
tooacco smoke , and calling him to her said :
"Willie , I know you have boon smoking , 1
T can smell tobacco very plainly on you.
Como hero and lot mo smell your breath. "
It was with reluctance that the youngster
came forward , and the telltale breath was
ovioonco suftlflont of hU guilt. That uvou-
lug ho spent In the house , und condign pun
ishment was tbroatouoa should the offouso
bo repeated.
Many were the promises made. Wllllo
would never , no. never , again put tbo horrid
stuff in htu mouth , and If his auntlo would
only forglvo bun this time bo would not sin
ugalii. Ills nppoal touched the dear old ludy
and ho wusngnlii restored lo favor.
Alus for the frailty of boyhood ! Willie's
promisor , thouah given in sincerity , had been
uiado only to bo broken , for tbo very next
evening after school hud closed his chum
ulyly informed him that ha had a package of
cigatoltos. "tho dundiusl , smokers ho bud
BOCII , " they would light ono each when oncu
outside of the school grounds ;
\Villlo tried hard to rojlst , out bis chum's
extravagant prjiso of the excellence of bis
smokers and hU own desires got tbo
better of htm , and for a hair hour ho
fairly ruvolod In the seauotivo pleasures of
nlcotlno dissipation.
But there is an and to all thinrs. Willie's
tlmo to bo at homo had como. Ho had sinned
again and ha know his punishment would bu
savoro. IIo did , iot wish to toll a IIo to his
aunt nnd ho was afraid to face bur , conscious
in ho was ol bis guilt. Ho debated for a long
tnno , and at lust mustered up sulllcieut cour-
Tiu to face his auut , und when ho did It was
with a smiling faco.
Ho wont through thoordoalof an examina
tion. No , ho had not smoked. IIo was being
rapidly weaned from tbo vice.
The next night , and the nuxt , nnd so Itol -
lowed for n week , UU aunt could not detect
tbo odor of tobacco smoka on lib bro'ith. but
It was noticed that every tl-no she put him to
the test thu huu quickly turiiaa her head
away. >
At UU , ono Saturday evening , alter ho
bad como bounding into the house m
all his youthful noisiness , nnd hud
gene to hh uunl for the regular examination ,
she hold her bunds bo torn lu > r tuco uud ax-
claimed :
"Stay wboro you are young man ; do not

Sno ha * not said anything to the lad about
imokluir nlnco ; his oroatli nai boon romurk-

but there was not nnd the rain drizzled down
upon his devoted head nnd the devoted heads
of 200 or 800 other travelers equally mlsora
bio and oqunlly enthusiastic In their praises
of Omaha as a good place to go around , The
little , dirty , grimy , smoky waiting room was
paclccd to suffocation and reeking with the
indescribable odor of crowded unvontllatod
rooms. Sullen , sulky men crowded the
tobacco-decorated lloor and disconsolate
looking woman nnd wailing children flllod
the greasy suata. Ticket-sellers nnd baggage
men stood at the "cubby" holes of tholr
cramped coops und glowered at the crowd.
There was a washout somowhoro. The
bridge was down , some ono said , hut nobody
know much beyond the fact that they were
laid up at the raggodost. dirtiest , most
wretched apology for a railroad station bo-
twcon Now York nnd San Francisco. The
apologetic individual was ono of the unfortu

Tnoso gentlemen in gold buttons , i sup

" 1'horo nro clttos nnd towns you know , "
ho plaintively continued , "whoro the rnllwny
depots nro provided with n window with n
sign on it : 'Information , ' but then of courao
these towns , you know , really have depots. I
suppose It is different in places where trains
just stop on the track somewhere and people
got off nnd go up town. 1 did try some of
these ornamental people and I nm afraid
that I have a fatal rcsoicblanco to some escaped -
capod lunatic or confidence roan. I thought
I spolto politely to the ofllccr outsldo. I said :
'My fnond , where can 1 llnd ! ' Then I
dodged. I thought ho was going to
throw a orlclc. Ho didn't , however , and
after a while I approached him again n llt
tlo more respectfully. 'Worshipful sir ! Can

" Kaw , I can't toll yo nothln' . Blowod If

" 'Now look-it hero , young follor,1 said ho ,
Why In blazes cun't you sit down nnd keep
still. I don't know nothln' not one blasted
UCK on earth. Do you understand that , or
shall I write It out for you)1 )
"Everybody laughed and I wont off In the
corner and drooped for a long time , but I
really did want to llnd out , you see , and so 1
made ono more effort. I tried n man In a
window. Ho saw mo coining and I could
distinctly feel him tryinp to tnesmorizn me
with n cold , ghnstly stare. I didn't got n
chunco to say a word. Ho stuck out bis foro-
ilngor. 1 thought It was a pistol and stopped.
" 'No , sir 1' said ho. 'The brldgo is NOT
down. Trains will NOT run tonight. Your
bagcago will not bo lost. You will NOT got
loft. Now glvo us a rest , ' and ho slammea
down the window.
"I want to try again. My face Is against

llnd out If there Is nny way of getting to
Council Bluffs axcopt by train. My wife Is
