A KENTUCKIAN IN A FIX.
An Innocent dimes to flrlrf Among the

Tho following Incident, which actually oc
curred, shows tho dipth of verdancy which Is
oxisUmt In somo uufnrtunnto Individuals! A
nntiro of a back county In Kentucky caiiio
Into tho city on tho Southern road n few days
ago to "wo tho sight" and to purchase one
or two Christmas present. Ho hadn't loon
in tho city muro than half nu hour lioforo ho
loaned n pleasant, well dressed sttuugor tft
on tho irotulMi of the latter to leturii with
tho amount ns hmiii us ho cashed n check,
Tho Kentucky man waited patiently at
Fourth and Central avenues, but tho stranger
camo not. In mi hour tho man from tho
country Iwnmo slightly uneasy, In two
hour ho was actually nuspiclous, In thrro
hours ho was convinced that ho had lieon
duped. Tho f.T.1 wan all tho money ho had,
and ho walked sadly back to tho (Irnnd Con
tral dojxit, wher ho related his wrongs to
Olllcor White. Tho big copper advised him
to go homo before noma oiio borrowed his
ivmts.
"Hut I kynn't go home," wild Kentuck. "I
nln't no money to go on. I'm dead broko."
"Oo up to tho mayor's ollleo," advised a
sympathetic hack man; "may ho ho'll glvo
you n free pons homo If you sing him a nice
song."
Kentuck looked doubtfully at his counselor,
and meditated for ton minutes ns ho walked
up and down, squirting tobacco julco right
and h'iU
"Hlamcd if I know what to dot" ho re
marked nt last.
"Hotter do as I suld," repented tho hack
mau. "Oo up to tho mayor, slug him a ulco
song about your trouble, and ho'll III you up
wid a iwisx."
Kentuck again transfixed, his advisor with
auoyoof mistrust. Something was troubling
him besides his loss. At last, with a heavy
sigh and an Inlmltahlo drawl, ho romar'todi
