IN " 0-BE-JOYFUL" > 1 , Ii. Harbour in the Chicago Uurront. 1. Shortyras tny ( avorlto atagn-drivor. Other niuno ho must have hnd , but I hixd never hoard it. IIo was nu nnamoly among stngo-drivorsjor ho did not swear , ho did not drink , ho did not boaat , ho did not lie ; and with all his rough exterior ho had a fine inward grnco and a manly dignity that lifted him far above moat men of liia class. 1 know that a day of pleasure awaited mo ono Juno morning , vrhon I had boon so fortunate as to secure for myself n seat by Shorty'fl aide for a ride over Hod Mountain PASS. ' I n all my years of experience with stage drivers I hnd never mot ono who could so quickly detect , and BO fully appreciate , the rare beauty and splendor of a moun tain rood as this homely , uncouth , igno rant Shorty. IIo noted every light and elmdovr , ev ery bit of { "lowing color , the tlowors on the rocky road , the golden shadows of the narrow streams , the low-hung clouds that Hooded the hills. The sunslnno that caino slanting down among the purple shadows or crowned the snow-whito crests , the quivering loaves of the aspen , the gloom of the pines , the foamy waves of the crystal streams breaking around and over the gray rocks , the growing splendor of the aster beds ; the tranquil beauty of the mountain lakes this man Shorty saw and rejoiced in all of it. His soul was lighted up by the majesty , the beauty and the grandeur of it all. 'Why , sir , " said ho to mp , 'Tvo lived right hero in these mountains sonco ' 03 , and , they're ' not old to mo yot. No , sir , they ain't , an' I don't reckon they ever will bo. They're now ev'ry mornin1 an' ov'ry ovonin' . 1 BOO somothin' in 'em each day that I never noticed afore , an' 1 ain't yet seen airy two sunsets jc alike. There'll bo a now kind of a shaddor or anew now kind of a light in the sky ov'ry timo. There's a kind of a somcihin' 'boutmoun tings that a man never outgrows , an' some men can't git 'long 'thout after they're uaed to it. I'm onoo' them men. " 1'vo hoard thorn that's bon born an" raised by the seashore kin never outgrow the sound o' the waves. If they go away they can't stay. They just can't live 'thout the murmur an' the music o' thorn sea waves , an' the feolin' the sea brcev.es jives a man. "Now , I'd jest naturally die if I had to go an' stay clean out o' sight o' these hills. 1 ain't none o' yor pootlcky kind o' fellers , but I hocrdof a man oncet a- callin , ' certain mountings the hills of his love , ' an , ' sir , that's jest what these hills air to me the hills of my lovo. ' I've tried coin' away , to what some Folks call a 'civilized country , ' but 1 didn't stay long : an' when I die I wane to die right hero , an' have the hillsides for my tomb'us that woman writ 'bout Moses. " Shorty was a garrulous man , but never talked when you wished ho would not. IIo would stop short in the midst of the moat animated discourse to enjoy in sil ence any special beauty in gulch or val ley , or far up in the heights. I was sure that the man must have had many adventures , but ho said little about them. IIo never spoke of any act of bravery or skill on his part. Ono gloomy day when iho mist hid the ranges and gulch from our view , I asked Shorty to tell mo some of his oxperionc- t'p. "I am Biiro you must Imve had soma strange ones , " I said. "Oh , I don't know , " Snarly modestly replied ; "nono to speak of , 1 reckon. I never killed u boar nor killed a red-akin nor nothiu' o' that kind , I never even had highwaymen ur foot-pads try to hold mo an" my paaaongors up. " "But your story need not bo about any of these things to please me , " I pro tested. "Well , then , sir , I will toll you a bit of a yarn. You eeo the mouth o' that gulch equaro ahead of us an' not mor'n a hundred jards oil. You kin jest make it out the mist. The sight of it reminds mo o' aomothin' . TJmt'a Poor Man's ( lulcli. 'J'horo uaed to bo a purty big camp 'bnut two miles iifi that gulch. It was called O-Uo-Joyful , but it got to bo a kind of o-bo-sorrowful place to BOIIIO of the boys fore they got out o' it. "At ono time I reckon there was as many as L',000 people in and 'round ( ) Bo-Joyful. It had n rog'Iar boom for two or three months , an' folks thought it was going to put Leadvillo clean in the shade , an' there aint a thing on uarth there this day but a lot of old tumble down cabins an1 tunnels in which many a poor devil { has buried . thn hope an' strength of his lifo. "I driv stage from the South Park up to 0-lio Joyful all through the gay time ; an1 many an' many's the load o' happy , hopeful , young an1 old fellers I've ' haul ed up there , an' them a eingin' their gay songs an' crackin' ' their jokes with ov'ry mortal man o' thorn thinkin' ' they was goin' straight to fatnoan' fortchun. "ButI , toll you , sir , itwa'n'tsix months 'foro ' I BOO many a ono of them poor follows with nothin1 but the old duds on their backs , a-goin' afoot out o' 0-Bo- Joyful without no songs on their lips an' only sorrcr in their hearts. That's the way of it in minin' camps. Somehow or other tolks don't allus hoar , an' don't want to hear o' the hundreds that lose their all where ono man strikes it rich. It's nothin'on the Lord's earth but a game o' chance , minin' ain't. "Well ono day I had a women paasongor. She was the first ono 1 took up , and 1 hated to take her ; for the place hadn't H decent place in it , an' aho didn't loo'x like a women who Imdn'troughed it much She was a little cherry-faced and cherry voiced woman , all dressed in black , an' 'bout ' 15 as near as I could judge. But spite o' that cherry voice an' amilin' face 1 could aoo plain enough in the womon'r eye that she had her cross to bear , an * that Its burden was on 'or yet. She'd a kind of a quiver 'bout her 1'pa ' , oven when aho laughed , an oncot In awhile I kelohod on to a little sigh or two that sho'd f.lve. "Sho ot l > y mo all the way to HIM camp , an' asked a good many questions 'bout this an' that an' t'other , but hadn't a word to eay 'bout herself or her pinna. I managed to find out that she was goin' up there n total strannor to ev'ry man in the camp ; as for belli' n stranger to the wiiumon why , there wa'n't a livin' woman t hero yIt. "Well , the boys they give her n room in the best shanty they was up , an' I como away an' loft her thoro. "I got my wrist badly sprained goin' back next day , an' it was three weeks 'foro 1 driv up to O-15o-Joyful ngin. Then I found the little woman mlstroes p' the biggest boardin'-houso and hotel in camp , an' the most poplcr woman thoro. Myrn Clatlltt's house was the houso. She was Myra Clnllitt to every bady , but aomo o'tho boys was callin' her Aunt Myra. ' "Sho did run n stnvin1 good house. They wasn't any two-ways 'bout that. They wasn't anything slow 'bout Myra Clnllitt or her tablo. Kv'rybody was welcome whether they could pay or not. But the boys they see to it that ov'ry- body paid. It wouldn't o1 boon healthy for any ono to fry nn' sneak out of it. "I reckon that Myra Clalitt was as good a woman as over the Lord made. The boys In O-Bo-Joyful got so they swore by her fairly. She liml a kind of n way 'bout her that not ono woman in a million has. A man couldn't do a thing sho'd asK him not to do anyhow 1 know /"couldn't. I'd fool 'shamod 'o myself all my lifo if 1 did. Many's the row that woman broke up. 1'vo soon mon stripped - pod for a light nn1 nil ready to buckle into each other with murder In their their hearts ; and when Mjra Clallitt'd march through the crowd that'll give way 'foro her that fight'd bo Indof'nitly post poned. That's what it would ! "But aho never had the lirat word to say 'bout herself. No ono knowed if sue was a widdor or not , or if she hiul child ren , or who or what she was. She was a kind of n woman that , somehow or other , you couldn't ask questions of , an couldn't have suspicions 'bout. You took her just hko you d take a clean , fresh , shinin' now dollar right from the mint. "But now it allors seemed to mo that that woman was lookin' ' for somebody. The day she rid up with mo on Iho stngo there wn'ant n niau or boy on the road that aho didn't see and sco good too. An' I never took n stage load 'o passon- jors to her house in my lifo that aho wa'nt aut an" otarin" sharp at ov'ry man of 'om. ' Then sho'd go round on the hills 'mong the mon at work there , an' 1 toll you she saw nil of 'om. Sometimes when all my [ usaongora'a bo out 'o the stage I'vo soon -liat little quiver como so pitiful to her ip , an' thoro'd bo tears in her eyes ; but L never lot on to her or any ono 'bout it. "After travel got so light that they was hardly over any passengers , Myra ( Jlailit jot restless.like , and talked o'goin'away. But the boys they jest wouldn't hear to it. So it happened that she was the last as well as the first woman in 0-Bo-Joy- ful. "Tho camp it began to wink out purty fast ( the mines never was no good ) when I driv up there ono Saturday , an in jumpln' down from my seat on the stage my foot kind o' turned tn like , an' first thing I knowed there 1 was on thoground with a broken lee. "Well , sir , that Myra Clallitt give mo the boat bed in the house an' took care of mo like as if I'd boon a baby. I'd laid there over a month , and in that time the bottom had about dropped out of O-Ba- Joyful , an' most o' the men was feolin' mighty blue and dos'prit-liko , as men will tool when they've boon cheated or deceived or turribly .disappointed. 'Bout this time some claim-jumpers begun to show up 'round the only claims that showed any signs of 'mountin' to any thing. Now , you know , sir , as well as mo , jest how claim-jumpin' affects n lot o' minors that's worked hard for what thoy'vo found. You know a decent miner hates a claim-jumper like ho hates pizen. They're dogged like game , an' shown no mercy when found. When it got out that there was claim-jumpers 'round O-Bo-Joyful it set the mon on lire. They was foolin' kind o' reckless , anyhow ; so they mot an formed a rog'Iar vigilance committee , an' made vows an1 took oaths that they meant to stand by. But I toll you they kept mum 'bout it 'foro Myra Olaflitt. "Ono o' the boys como to mo ono day an whispered to mo that they was on the track o' ono o' the wust o' the claim- jumbora an' they thought thoy'd run 'lin down that night. " 'An' if wo do , " says ho , "thoro'll bo n hangin' boo 'foro daylight , auro as you're born. Thoro'll bo no earthly es cape for the villain. But don't you , for your lifo mention it to her , ' onya ho , jerkin' his thumb over his shoulder to'ard the kitchen where Myra Clallit wan Hinging at her work. "After supper ov'ry man left the house an' that lef mo alone with Myra. She got aomo aowiii' an' como an' Bet down by mo in an oncomiium lively humor , even for her that was always Hiaillin' . She sat there lauglun' an' clmttin' in her cheery way an' once in a while uho sung parts o'Hongs like 'Josoa Lever o1 my Soul1 nn"Uock of Ages , Cleft for Mo. ' Finally she got moro sober like an' puug part o' most an awful purty aong 'bnut ' belli' 'nearer my homo than over I'vo bon before. ' There was ono part that said ; Npar inv Knthor'n IIOIIHH , Whuro bunlona urn laid down , an' all of a midden she let her fiowiii' fall in her hp , clasped her hands over her head , an' Bald in the strangest way kind o1 alow an" solemn an' atiddy-liko 'Where burdens are laid down.1 Then , air , nho kind o' shut her oyea , dropped her chin on her breast an' siyn agin , moro Bolomn than before : 'Whoro burdens am laid down. " 'Oh , thank Clod ! ' she said then , jumpin' to her foot , 'thank ( Jed agin and tigin that there in a place an1 a time when the weary burdens of this lifo can bo laid down an' achin1 hearts whoso every throb is ono of woo , can bo forever still an' ' at rest. Oh Thou who didat lay down the heavy burden of Thy lifo on Mount Calvary ; Thou whoso aching heart throbbed out its agony and Its lifo on the cross , help mo to boar my burden of sorrow until I can forever lay it down. ' " 1 mind every word of it , sir ; I ain't the ono to fergit a thing or words like them. "Woll , then , the sot | down | agin , very quiet an' kind a * ecired lookin' liko. But by an1 by aho began talkin' 'bout the boys , nn' how sorry ulio full for 'om In their diaapp'iutmout , an' how bravely they bore 'om. She talked 'bout them boys as if thoy'd boon saints , every onn of 'om inaload o1 the pack o1 rough fel lers they was. I felt s. < guilty like listonin' ' to her. Thinks I to myself , I wonder what you'd think an1 any , Myra Clallitt , if you know where thorn mon have gene now an1 what for ? I wonder if you know that at this minnit they worn out on trails and hillsides akulkin * along in the atorm ( for it was storming fear fully ) tracking to his death a poor devil that'fl atopplii'stealthily from tree to tree an1 from rock to rock in the darkness , fonnn' nnd tromblln' and prayin' , likely , If ho never prayed aforo. ' It scorned to mo 1 could see the poor wretch glidin1 an' croopin' along an' thorn mini with murder in thor hearts after him. "Hut Myrn talked on nn'on until 1 couldn't aland it any longer , nn mndo bollovo I'd gene to sloop just to hnvo her shut up 'bout thorn fellers that didn't deserve - serve half the good things aho said 'bout 'om. "Sho thought I'd rooly gene to sloop an' ao she atoppod softly ever to the liro- plnco nn' stood there with ono elbow rest- In' on n brick of the chimney nn' her cheek in her hand. She looked oncom- mon palo nn' old an" careworn ns aho stood there with the light of the lire shinin' up In her faco. "An1 while she stood there I saw the cnbin door opuii very slowly nn1 carefully nn' n man's fnco thruat in ; nn' 1 toll , air , that I , who have aeon the donth ngony on many n fnco ; I , who have soon men turn pnlo , nn' ghastly , even , with fonr ; 1 never , sir , seen auoh n tnco an that was that como pookin' in behind the door. It was like that of the dead , nn' Ills eyes scorned to bo on liro. Ho laid n tromblin' hand on the knob , stepped in tn' softly shut the doar. "Myrn turned slowly 'round , nn' ' in n second that man wna nt her foot. " 'Oh , madam ! mniUm ! ' ho fairly acronined , grabin' her hniid , 'anvo mo ! invo mo ! Hide mo , quick ! I nm hunted like a boast ! Mon with murderous hearts nro in porault. They cnnnot fool mercy or pity ! You , n woman , cnn. They will hnng mo to the nearest two if they find mo. Save mo , snvo my life , guilty nn' sinful as I am/ / ' " 1 never took my eyes oil' that womnns face for n second , after that man bognn to speak. There como ever her such u look as 1 can't tell you of. An" nil the time that man was whinin1 an' plondin' she kept stoppin' back a liltlo nt a time , but her eyes never loft his faco. "I reckon ho thought she was goin' to give him up to his oiiomios , for his voice sunk down to a moan that w as pit iful to hoar. IIo put out his hands ao implorin'ly nt the last , nn' foil face downwnrd , grovolin' at her foot. "Thoro wna dead silence for full n minnit , an , in ] that time Myrn kep linssin' her hands ever her eyes like a | ) oraon coniin' out of a heavy oluop. Her lips kept movin' but there was no sound. At last she spoke four words , in' the man was on his foot as quick us lighthin' . Thorn words wore ; " John Clallit , In many localities Hood's Saraapnrilla ia in such general demand that it is the recognized family medicine. 1'ooplo write that "tho whole neighborhood is taking it , " etc. Particularly is this true of Lowell , Mass. , where ilia mndo , and where moro of Hood's Saraaparilla is sold than of any other sar.snparllla or blood purifier. It is the great remedy for de bility , scrofula , dyapopaia , biliousness , or any disease caused by impure state or low condition of the blood. Oivn it a trial. No Moro Chicago I [ ernld. "No , no moro Ilirting for mo , boys , " remarked a drummer to a sot of his ac quaintances as they smoked and dialled on a Like Shore train. "I used to go without smoking when I was dying for a cigar just no I could go in the ladies' ' car. But I'm cured. On my last run into Chicago I mot a nice young lady , She was agreeable , and of course I made myself as nearly so as possible. Had i very pleasant half hoiu with her before wo reached the station , and of course when wo got there I asked her if thorn were any parcola I could carry , and if I shouldn't call a carriage for hor. Sue smiled bewitchingly and said I might help her if I would bo so kind. Then slio pointed to the scat right behind - hind whom wo wore sitting , and there were three babies , aaaortod sizes , asleep. She said they were horn. Well , I was in for it , BO 1 picked up the two biggest ones , ono on cither arm , while she took the kid. Wo marched out and found a carriage , nnd I put her in and was about to say good-day when aha smiled again , so bewitch- ingly.nnd asked mo to got in. I couldn't refuse , you know , and BO I wont along , Wo drove out to the north end of Lincoln Park and stopped before a nice houao. A man came running out , lifted out the babies , kisaed thiim , lifted out the young woman , kiascd her two or three times and told the driver ho could go. Would you believe it , she WAS so spooney on that hiiBiiand of hers that nho never said goodbye - ' bye to mo , nor looked in my direction at all. And that ain't the worat of it. 1 had to pay the carriage biro inyoiilf , nnd lost half H day's time in the bargain. That married woman cured mo of flirting as long us I livo.
