TOM
How He Won a Price Bible at Han.
day School.
BY MJLBK TWAIX.
fcabbath-school hours were from 9
until half-past 10 ; and then church
service. Two of the children always
remained for the sermon voluntarily
aud the others tlways remained too
for stronger reasons. The church's
high - backed - uncushioned peva
would seat about 300 persons ;
the edifice was but a email , plain
affair , with a sort of pine-board tree
box on it for a Pteeple. At the door
Toin dropped back a atep and accost
ed a Sunday-dressed comrade :
"Say , Billy , got a yaller ticket ? "
"Yea. "
"What'll you take for her ? "
"Wbal'U "
you give ?
"Piece of lickerish and a fish
hook. "
"Leas see 'am. "

hands- Then Tom traded a couple
of white alleys for three red ticketa
and some mfle or other for a couple
of blue ones. He waylaid other
aa they came , aud went on
tickets of various colon ten
at fifteen minutes longer. He en
tered the church now with a swarm
of clean and noisy boys and girls ,
proceeded to hia beat and .started a
quarrel with the first boy that came
handy. The teacher , a grave elder
ly man , inter/erred ; then turned
his back a moment and Tom pulled
a boy's hair in the next bench , and
was absorbed in bis book when the
boy turned around ; stuck a pin in
another boy , presently , in order to
hear him say "Ouch ! " and got a
new reprimand from his teacher.
Tom's whole class were of a pattern
restless , noisy and troublesome.
When they came to recite their
lemons , not one of tiiqm knew his
verses perfectly , but had to be
prompted all along. However , they
worried through , and each got his

be exchanged for it ; ten red tickets
equalled a yellow one ; for ten yel
low tickets the superintendent gave
u very plainly bound Bible ( worth
forty cents in those easy times ) to i
the pupil. How many of my read- .
era would have the industry ami
application to memorize 2,000 YMSfcP ,
even for a Dore Bible ? . .nd yet _
Mary had acquired t o Blblea In
this way it was t Q patient work
of two years ar < j a boy of German
pareutagn had , < von four or five. He
once recite , , 3,000 verses without
stopping but the strain upon his
men * . * ! faculties was too great , and
be , was lltlle better than an idiot
i from that day forth a grievous mis
fortune for the echool , for on great
occasions , before company , the
Superintendent ( aa Tom expres
sed it ) had always made this boy
come out and "spread himself. "
Only the older pupils managed lo
keep their tickets and stick to their
tedious work long enough to get a
bible , and BO the delivery of one of
those prizes was a rare , noteworthy
circumstance ; the successful pupil
was so great and conspicuous for
that day tbat on the very epot every
scholar's heart was fired with afresh
ambition that often "lasted a couple
of weeks. It is possible that Tom's
mental stomach had never really
hungered for one of those prized but
unquestionably hia entire being had
for many day longed for the glory
and eclat tbat came with it.
In due course the supenntendent
Htood up In front of the pulpit , with
a closed hymnbook m his hand and
his forefinger inserted between its
leaves , ana commanded attention.
"When a Sunday-school superinten
dent makes his customary little
speech a hynm-booa in the hand is
as necessary as the inevitable sheet
of music in the hand of a singer
who stands forward on the platform
and singe ) a solo at a concert though
why , is a mystery ; for neither the
hymu-Dook nor the sheet of musio
Is ever referred to by the sufferer.
The superintendent was a slim
creature of thlrty.flve , with a sandy
goatee and short sandy hair ; he
wore a stiff standing collar whose
sharp point * curved forward abreast
the corners of his mouth a fence
that compelled a straight lookout
ahead , uud a turning of Uie whole
body < ? hen a side view was required
his. chin was propped on a spreading
Cravat , which was as broad and as
Jong as a bank note , and had fringed
< ends ; his boot-toes were turned
sharply up , in the fashion of the
day , like sleigh runners an effect
patiently aud laboriously produced
by the young men sitting with their
toes pressed against a wall for hours
together. Air "Walters was very
earnest of mien , and very sincere
and honest at heart ; and he held
pacred things and places in such
reverence , and BO separated them
from worldly matter that uncon
sciously to himself his Sunday-school
voice had acquired a peculiar in.
touatiou which was wholly absent
on week days. He began after this
fashion.
, children , 1 want you all to
Bit up just as straight and pretty as
you can , and give me all your atten
tion for a minute or two. There
that la the way good little boys and
girls snould do. I see one little girl
who is looking out of the window.
I am afraid she thinks I am out
there eornewhere perhaps up in
one of the trees , making a speech
to the little birds. Applausive tit
ters. ] I want to tell you how good
It mjfcee me feel to see so many
brigm , clean little faces assembled
In a place like this , learning to do
right and be good. " And so forth
aud so on. It is not neuesnary to
set down the rest of the oration. It
was of a pattern which does not
vary , and it is familiar to us all.
.The latter third of the speech was
marred by the resumption of fights
and other recreations , among cer
tain of the bad boys , and by fldget-
inga and whisperings that extended
far aud wide , washing even to the
bases of isolated and incorruptible
rocks llktt Hid. aud Alary. But now
every sound ceases suddenly , with
the subsidence of Mr. Walter's
voice , and the conclusion of the
speech was received with , a burst of
f-ilent gratitude.
A good part of the whispering had
been occasioned by an event which
wa more or less rare the entrance
of visitors ; lawyer Tliatcher accom
panied by a very feeble and aged
* man ; a fine , portly , middle-aged
gentleman with iron-gray hair ; and
a dignified lady who was doubtless
. the latter's wife. The lady was
leading a child. Tom had been
restless and full of cba&nge and re-
pinings ; conscience-smitten , too
_ he could not meet Amy Lawrence's
eye , he could not brook her loving
gaze. But when he saw this tmall
newcomer , hii soul was ablaze with
bliss in a moment. The n zt mo
ment he was "showing off" with
all &m might cuffing boys , pulling
hair , m i king faces In a word , using
every art tbnt seemed likely to fas
cinate a girl and win her applause.
Hia exaltation bad but one alloy
the memory ot his humiliation in
this angel's garden and that rec
ord in sand was fast washing out
uniier the waves of happiness that
were sweeping over it now.
The visitors were given the high
est seat ol honor , and as Boon as Mr.
Walters' speech was finished he In
troduced them to the school. The
middle-aged man turned out to be a
prodigious personage no lesa a one
than the county judp- altogether
the most august creation these chil
dren had ever looked upon and
they wondered what kind of mate
rial he was made ofnd : they half
wanted to hear him j v.r , and were
half afraid be might , too. He was
from Constantinople , twelve miles
away so he had traveled and seen
the world these very eyes had
looked upon tbo county courthouse ,
which waa said to have a tin roof.
The a we inspired by these reflections
waa attested by the impressive si
lence and the ranks of staring eyes.
This was the great Judge Tuatcher ,
brother of their own lawyer. Jeff
Thatcher immediately went for
ward , to be familiar with the great
man , and be envied by the school.
It would have been mu ic to his soul
lo hear the whispering-
"Look at him , Jim ! " He's a go
ing up there. Say look ! he's ageing
going to shake hands with him he
is shaking bands with him ! By
jings , don't you wish you waa Jefl ? "
Mr. Walters fellro "showing off , "
with all sorts of official bustling
and activities , giving orders , deliv
ering judgments , discharging direc
tions here , there and everywhere
that he could .find a target. The li
brarian "showed off " running aud
making a deal of splutter and fuss
that intect authority delights in.
The young lady teachers "showed
off " bending sweetly over pupila
that were lately being boxed , lifting
pretty warning fingera at bad little
boys aud pattiug good ones loving
ly. The young gentlemen teachers
' showed off" with small scoldings
aud other little displays of authori
ty and fine attention to discipline
and most of the teachers of both
sexes found business up at tbe I1-
brary , by the pulpit ; and it
was business that frequently
had to be done over again two or
three timeswith much seeming vex
ation ) . The little girls "showed off"
in various ways , and the little boys '
"showed off" with such diligeuco '
that the air was thick with paper
wads and the murmur c { scufflings.
And above it all th.e great man eat
and beamed a majestic smile upon i
all the hguse and warmed himself
in the Sim of his own grandeur
for lie waa "showing off too. "
There was only one thing want
ing to make Mr. Waltei's ecstaoy
conieplete , and that was a chance
to deliver a bible-prize and exhibit
a prodigy. Several pupils had a
few yellow tickets , but noue had
enough he had been around among
the star pupila inquiring. He would
have given words , now , lo have
ibat German lad back cgain with a
oound mind.
And now at this moment , when
hope was dead Tom Sawyer came
forward with nine yellow IJohetD
aud ten blue oned , and demanded a
Bible This wa * a thunderbolt out
of a clear tky. Walters was not ex
pecting an application from this
source for the next ten years. But
there was no getting around it
here were the certified checks , and
they were good for their face. Tom
was , therefore , elevated to a place
with the Judge and tbe other elect ,
and the great news waa announced
from headquarters , it was the
most stunning Bttrpriee of tbo decade ,
and the new hero up to the judical
one's altitude , and the school bad
two marvels to gaze upon , in place
of one. The boys were all eaten up
with envy but those that suffered
the bitterest pangs were those who
perceived , too late , that they them-
Eelves bad contributed to the hated
splendor by trading tickets to Torn
for the wealth he had amassed in
selling whitewashing privileges.
These despised themselves as being
the dupea of a wily fraud a guile
ful snake in the grass ,
Thepme was delivered to Tom
with as much effusion as the super
intendent could pump up under the
circumstances ; but it lacked some
what of the true gush , for the poor
fellow's instinct taught him that
there waa a mystery here that could
not well bear the lignt , perhaps ; it
was simply preposterous that this
bov had warehoused 2,000 sheaves
of Scriptural wisdom on his premises
a dozen would strain his capacity
without a doubt.
Amy Lawrence was proua and
glad , and she tried to make Tom see
it in her face but he wouldn't look.
She wondered ; then she was just a
grain troubled ; next a dim suspic
ion came and went came again ;
she atchedj a furtive glance told
bur words , and then her heart broke ;
she was jealous and angry , and the
tears came and she hated every
body. Tom most of all ( she thought. )
Tom was introduced to the J udge ;
but his tongue was tied , his breath
would hardly come , his heart quaked
partly because of the awful great
ness of the man , but mainly because
he was her parent. He would have
liked to fall dotvn aud worship him ,
if it were in the dark. The Judge
put his baud on Tom's head and
called him a fine little man , and
asked what hia name was The
boy stammered , gasped , and got It
out :
"Tom. "
"Oh , no ; not Tom it is "
"Thomas. "
"Ah , that's It. T thought there
waa more to It , maybe. That's very
well. .But you've another one , 1
dare say , and you'll tell it to me ,
won't you ? "
"Tell tbe gentleman your olher
name , Thomas , " said Walters ; "and
say 'air' you mustn't forget your
manners. "
"Thomas Sawyer air. "
"That's it I That's a good boy.
* me boy. Fine , manly little fel
low. Two thousand versea ia a
great many very , very great many.
And you never can be sorry for the
trouble you took to learn tt em ; for
Knowledge is worth more than any
thing there is in the world ; it's
what makes great men and good
men ; you'll be a great man and a
good mnn yourself , some day ,
Thomas , and then you'll look back
sud say : It'e all owing to my dear
teachers that taught me to learn
It's all owing to the good supenn
tendent , who encouraged me and
watched over mo , and gave me a
beautiful Bible to keep and have it
all my own , always it's all owing
to right bringing up. That is what
you will eay , Thomas and you
wouldn't take any mo
ney for those two thous
and verses noindeedyou wouldn't. '
And now you wouldn't mind telling
me and this lady some of the things
you've learned ? no , I kuow you
wouldn't , for we are proud of tha
Uttte boys that learn. Now , no
doubt , you know the names of all
the twelve disciples. Won't you
tell us the names of the first two
that were appointed ? "
Tom waa tugging at a button hole
and looking Bbetpish. He blusted
now and bis eyes fell. Mr. Walter's
heart sank within him. He said to
himself , it is not passible that the
"boy can answer the first question
why did the Judge ask him ? Yet
he felt obliged to speak up and say :
"Answer the gentleman , Thomas ;
don't be afraid. "
Tom still hung fire.
"Now , I know you will tell me , "
said the lady. "The names of the
first two disciples were "
"David and Golliah ! "
Lot us draw the curtain of charity
over the re&t of the scene.
