A Youth's Terrible Fight With
Furnished Beaata.
i
> HU Hair Turned Wnlta
MlllotdUtter in New Yotk Sun.
"Eighty years ago on Christnns
eve , " said the Sheriff , "Uncle 1'ole.u
Underbill's grand father's hair turned
aa gray as a badgers. "
It was II r. M. The Crusmnn
IJouso was closed and the lights wuro
turned out , but seine of tlio boys were
lingering by the genial new base-burn
er steve , where they had boon ex
changing experiences during the eve
ning. Tlio otovo was radiant. Its
beams fell warmly on tlio form of the
dog Cfca.ir on the lloor. They lit the
jovial face of the County Clerk as the
early sunbeams illumine the tin rooster
ter on the hotel barn and kissed the
uosc of the Sheriff until its reflected
light surrounded him with a halo of
{ glory. They glowed on the ilecantorr
back of the bar with a soft inlonsU ;
I that cmphasiccd the labels , and the ;
even climbed to the "No Trust" sig
and clothed it with HO kindly a gloat
that it appeared no longer a stori
I' ' reality nnd carried terror to no ono
not oven the foreman of the printing
office , reclining on the coal-box bao
in the shadow o.
"Eighty years ago ! " mused th
Sheriff * 'Old ngo comes on apace ,
but it seems to mo as if ho waH bowl
ing along this way on a gallop. Ag
may bo a crown of glory , but I notic
that youth hangs up the most von
sion. "
"Well , " said'tho County Clerk ,
"did ago pounso down on Uncle Polet
Underbill's grandfather all in one
night and turn him gray ? What bus
inosa had ho to bo Undo Pelog'i
| ] j grandfather , or anybody olso's grand
| j father , anyhow , unless ho was gray
11 when ho started in on the grandfathe
business ? "
"But hold orit Hold onl" said th
Sheriff. ' 'I haven't told you about i
yet. Undo Polog'u grandfa'Jjor was
22 years old wkcn "
"Stop I" said the ox-Poundmastor ,
an ho got up und began to button hii
overcoat. "Stop , Sheriff ; that'll do
1'vo heard you toll about catfish
climbing trees , end pickerel burrow
ing throhgh ton-aero lots to got from
ono pond to another , and'havo ' never
for a moment doubted your truthful
ness. I've told these stories to my
children , nnd when they pulled down
their under eyelids and asked mo if I
saw anything green. I've reproached
them for implied doubt , tolling them
that you had soon these thing ) , nnd
they were consequently true. But
Sheriff , in prcsonting mo with a mai
22 years old as a grandfather , you nro
asking too much of mo at my time of
life. It won't soak in. I now bcgii
to doubt oven the climbing catiiah
and my faith in the burrowing pickerel
orel it 'wavering. Sheriff , it is a sad
thing when ono friend loses confidonci
in another. Good night , boys. I g <
homo n sadder , but nvwisor man.
A RUNNING FIRE.
"Poundmastor , " said the Sheriff ,
"I'm touched" Aud the Sheriff
pressed his hand to his head. Then
thinking the movement might bo mis
'Constructed among the boys , ho removed
moved it quickly , and laid it on hie
chest , "how sharper than a sorpont't
tooth it is to bo called .a liar by a roan
yon darsn't hit ! " ho said , bitterly
'But . Undo '
stay. tPelog'a grand
father wasn't his grandfather then
i ou BOO "
"But you said heWAS his grand
father. " urged the tPoundrnastor.
"Do you take it back them , and admit
you were lying to us"You see,1'
aid the Sheriff , not committing him
self. "You see , ho got-to bo Uncle
Pelog's grandfather , because ho was
_ ik Unolo Poleg's grandfather finally.
Ml See ? "
The Poundmastor shook this head
sadly , and sat down again.
' 'Then that spoils the whole blamed
atory ; " aid the County Clerk. "You
said'Poleg's grandfather's hair turned
gray in a single night. Now , that
would bo something worth listening
to. If the old gentleman' * liair turn
ed gray all at once , that goes tie say
that hu hair wasn't gray baforo , un
less it was dyed and ho loit hislliat in
a shower. Now , a grandfather with
out gray hair was just an immense
thing to commence a Ohristaaas-jjtory
with. But it turns out that tthoro
wasn't any grandfather at all , .and if
there wasn't any grandfather , where
are you going to got your gray < hair ?
The next time you intend to get -your
fine work in on a grandfather story.
Sheriff , don't try to play a twenty-
two-yoar-oldor off on us for the -old
anan.
'Try it the other way , Sheriff , '
suggested the ox-District-Attoruoy
"Cun't you make it come out by tell
ing how your grandfather's ' Undo
Polog Underbill's hair turned gray in
A single night ? Mobbo that'll fix it"
"But my grandfather didn't ' have
any Unolo Pelog ( Underbill , " said the
fchoriff.
"I toll you what to do , " said the
Poundmastor , who likes a dispute.
"Begin the story tQnco upon a time ,
etc , It'll '
straighten out as you go.
"Yes , " said the District-Attorney :
"and if you could work m a couple o'
ghosU right near tfeo start , and kill
some one m a dark , deep hollow , we'd
like It. "
The foreman of the printing office
came out from among the shadows
and took a seat in the glow of the
base burner. Ho said It was too cold
on a coal box.
"Bu1 , ther ain't any ghosts in this
story , "said the Sheriff , "and no onu
gota murdered. "
' The foreman of the printing office
wont back to the shadows , ilo said
it was to hot by the bask burner.
A PRETTT I'JOTUllK.
"I have an impression , " continued
the Sheriff , "that there ie the suspi-
sion of an inclination on the part of the
. circle this evening to infer that I do
I.g not intend to lay this story out with
K the aid of a straight edge. Gentlemen -
men , I am deeply hurt. With what
good reason lot my witness be a sim
ple statement of facU in the case of
Uncle Peleg'sgrandftttlier. Poetio li-
coneo , my dear Poundmutorl Poetio
license ! "
There was a pause. A label on ono :
of the decanters ceased to gleam in
, the fire light. There was u m'lverj
sound of a gurgling rill in a meadow.
/i group of earnest raon stood silent
-V
in the glow and shadow. Then pro-
oently the label blazed forth again in
all its wonted vividness. The silent
men sat down. The Sheriff broke the
stillness. .
"Of course , " said ho , "tho circum
stances I nm pbout to toll didn't hap
pen within my recollection. I got
'em clean from Undo I should say
the Info Poles Underbill. Poleg
didn't know thorn from personal recol
lection , either , as ho hadn't ell huir
to any grandfather at that time , and
wasn't in that part of the country.
Poloc's grandfather's name w s
Kzokiol Murrywcnthet. At the ngo of
U2 ho wni a young man living over on
the head waters of the Fjittlo Bush-
"Uo was a romantic sort of a duck , "
continued the Sheriff. "Ho scorned
n life of toil , and chose the caiy am
luxurious existence that comes of liv
ing in a brush cabin nnd chasing th
llcot-footod donicoim of the dim li
forest from ridge to ridge , nnd bring
ing homo their hide and tillow. Hi
was an original Pike county hunter ,
nnd was known to clear as high n
fifiy dollars aoino years with his gui
nnd traps. Nobody know where l
came from. Ilo liked a drop of snuff ,
nnd - "
"Ho was from Jersey , " said th
Poundmnstcr.
"Ho was extremely shy and mod
cat , " Sheriff wont on.
"Ho wasn't from Jersey , " Haid tin
County Clerk.
"Ho had very black hair , and wn
tall and wiry , nnd nil tlio girls in th
bade woods were stuck on him. The
follows were jealous because ho cu
'em out of the atone frolics and husk
ing bees. A family named Jobsoi
had found their way from somowher
or other in Jersey to that part of the
country , nnd settled near tlio Monroe
county border. There was old Job
son and his wife and his dnughto
Melissa. Jobson had uncovered nbou
an aero of earth on his tract , and bull
him a house , n barn , n wagon shod , i
spring-housonn observatory fiffy fee
high , and throe miles of our foot wal
with the stone the acre yielded.
MKU8BA A SrUKNKIt.
"According to the Into Polog Un
derbill , Melissa must 1m vo boon a
stunner. She was way up in all the
occomplislunontB of the district , which
ranged from turning a flapjack to
picking a panther out of the tree with
the old man's flintlock rifle. Th
pastimes and pleasures of budding
Pike county maidenhood in those days
were few , and it ivoro threat rownrd
for Melissa to got the promise trom
her mother that if she would pile up
so much stone wall ( [ while she rested
from pulling turnips , nlio could 'shuck
the hide ptPn the next wolf that dad
fotohed in ; ' or if she cut and piled
a sufliciont quantity of stove wood before -
fore she wont to work hoeing the
"tutors , she might hold the pig at the
next Christinas killin' while dad stuck
it.
"It was ono day in the fall of 1801
that Ezckiel Merry weather first struck
the Jobson clearing , and mot Molissa.
She was having n holiday , and was
enjoying it in shucking wolves. The
wolf crop was good that season , and
old Jobson'g traps were generally full.
Whether it was the wny Melissa yank
ed the pooling off of the wolves , or
whether it WOH her general style that
did the business , Ezekiel fell in love
with her at first sight. She fell in
love with him , tooayd ho got to tak
ing in the Jobson clearing pretty re
gular on his hunting expeditions.
Finally ho asked her to marry him ,
and she said she would. Ho laid the
matter bofoVo her old man.
" 'Wall , scarcely ; you can't have
M'lissj' said Jobson. 'No young
.squirt of a bushwhacker don't tie on
to her if her dad know'a it , an' her
dad's up to things what's goin' on
'
'round here pooty ginoraly. When
'
M'hss goes away from this pastor lot
it'll bo with eoroo gray-hoaded rooster
an knows what to treat her to. She
don't splice to nobody but a gray-
headed man , an' yo might jest AS well
bait yor * trap in some other * warap ,
'
Zok'el.
. "Well , now , I'm blamed if I ain't
glad to hoar a little something about
gray hair. " said the County Clerk.
"I was afraid youd ! forgot about that ,
and twos getting two , stories .mix
ed. "
"That WOB a great blow to the
young people , " continued the Sheriff.
"Ezelaiol struck into the woods and
MolissR. shucked wolves with a heavy
heart. By and by Sim Smith -of
Poconoimot Melissa. Ho was on the
upper aide of DO , gray as n rat , and
Dwnod a farm. WJion ho asked old
Jobson far Melissa , Jobson said :
" 'YoVo draw'd the proper bead the
fust time , Sim. Yo'.vo hit mo plump
back o' tho.foro-shouldor. The gal's
' '
your'n.
MAXCU-UAKINO WOI.VEB ,
"Molisu hadn't anything to say in
the mutter , iiuid the wadding was fixed
for Christiaou Kvo. On that night
the population of three townships was
at Jobsons sixteen paoplo in all.
Old 'Squire Morgan wan there to tie
the knot. Eeokiol Merrywcathor was
the only absentee. It was a fine
moonlight m lit and as cold At Green
land. The voiding wai to come off
at 0 o'clock. Every little while the
howling of wolv.es
could bo hoard on
all lidos of the
clearing. That was
uothing uncommon , though , .and no
body thought ony.tliiiig of it. About
3 .o'clock the howling was more than
usually loud and prolonged in ono di
rection.
" 'Wolves is dura liungry to-night ,
iaid old Jobson. They ro closm' in
9n ( lot deer pooty rog'Lir , I mckon. '
"Tho 'howling cauio nearer and
nearer.
"Cussed if I don't think they're
: oiu' to take that door plumb through
jur turnip patch , ' said Jobson.
'Well ' , lui 'em go. Wo'vo got other
business besides carin' for a nassul o'
jruory wolves to-night ; hey , Sim ? '
"The wolves came closer and clos
er. Their snarling could bo beard in
ho house. But no ono over took the
trouble to look out of the window. '
Clio howling tud barking , an d snari
ng kept on , and the aoundsliawed
hut the wolves were not moving. .
Mulissu wont to the window and loot-
id out.
' "Why , dad , " unid she , 'them
s bus treed Biitlu'ii' in our apring
louso. They're thick urouii' ' it , and
ionic of 'OIU'H going down the chim-
'
ley.
" 'Sure enough,1 says Jobson ,
hey've druv Butliin1 inter the spring
iou o , urtin. Wall , boys , take yr
; une. We mowt UH well go out on'
top this yer' noise 'fore wo pcrcood. '
"Tho inou took their guns and went
out. A round or two sottlnd the bus-
incsj for the wolves outside , but there
was a struggle going on inside the
milk houto. The door was forced
open. By tlm light of the moon they
saw a man , with nis back to the wall ,
fighting four hungry wolves with
nothing but his hunting knife. The
floor was piled deep with dead wolves ,
The man wns rescued and helped into -
to the hoiiBo. Ho wns covered with
blood and 'iis clothes were nearly all
torn from him. It was Ezckicl Mor
rywcathor , but his black Imir was as
ijrny as a badgurl
' "Xok'l1 ! said Melissa.
" 'M'liss ' ! ' said Ezt-klol.
"And they wuro locked in ono an
other's arms. Then Ezekiel told how
ho had stnrto'l to comu to the wed
ding in spite of his feelings , how he
was cliRBod by wolves ; how ho fought
them for two miles through the snow ,
lid finally Bought rufuge in the spring
hoiiBo. Tlio wolves clambered to thereof
roof nnd lot themselves down the
chimney and clusod in nround him.
Tlio 1 error of the situation had turned
his hair white , nnd ho had been rea
died just in time.
"In the midst of tlio oxcitrmont
created by E/ekiol's ' story Melissa
said :
" 'Dad , this yor's the white-haired
man I'm going to tie to. ilia hair's
whiter than Sim's , by a powoiful
sights. '
"And old Jobson saw the point.
The wedding came off at 0 o'clockbut
Ezekiel was the bridegroom. The
Into Pel eg Underbill used to say that
the Jobson clearing hnd the jollicflt
Christmas Eve that night that ever
was known in this country. "
The label on the the decanter disap
peared again. Again tlio gurgling
meadow brook. A group of earnest
men pass out into the frosty nir , and
the base burner beams alone on Ciusar
and the decanters behind the bar.
The Sheriff had told his Christmas
Btory. "

liow vain and conceited is the coun
try publisher who imagines that an ad
vance circus agent doesn't know pret
ty near what his circulation is. And
how foolish and reckless that same
agent would bo to pretend that ho
know anything about it. In days
gene by , when the genial cir
cus man of Michigan , Joe Warner ,
was on the road as agent , ho had the
softest , sweetest way of approaching
a publisher that was over shown in
the stato. lie know withiu a dozen
copies of what the circulation of each
paper was , and ho also know what a
three-column "ad" in this or that
sheet would bo worth to his show.
Ono day hu entered a weekly nowspa-
dor oilico in Eaton county , shook
hands all aroujul , throw down half n
dozen cig.iru , and inquired :
"IIi B your circulation increased
since last year ? "
"Oh , yes greatly increased. "
"Are you printing double what you
were laat yeat ? " '
"Well ahein well , I think wo
are. "
"Shall wo contract on tho'basis of
3,000 circulation ? "
' Yes , I think wo'd better. Wo
may run a few under or ever , but
that's about the iwora.ro. "
Warner know that the honest fig-
urgca wore about 050 , but ho took out
a contract , filled in some of the
blanks , and said :
"I shall have to look your mail
list. If you go ever 3,000 I must
allow you fern circulation of 4,000. "
"Oh , never mind that ; 3,000 will
do. "
"But aiy orders compel mo to look
it your Hat. "
"Yes well-yes , " stammered the
publisher , as ho hunted around among
bis exchanges.
"Say , Warner. "
"Well ? "
"I guess you needn't make the con-
bract on the basis of 3,000 circulation ,
but rather on increased influence
imong people who like to see a good
mow. It's too much trouble to find
the list ! "
"T-honI muat write in hero that
you have a circulation of l.OOOconics. "
"All right/ '
"And the price will bo the same as
last year ? "
"Yes , I suppose so , but I'll ' bo hang-
ad if I don't circulate plump 0,000
copies on the next patent medicine
uiun to make up for it.
