the Memory of the Olden Time Arp in Atlanta Constitution George Luster was tbe boy I ever knew outside of borne I reckon I knew bim a little better than anybody his mother excepted and the is I knew where he was ami what be was doing of limes when she didn't was a busy little cuss as ever you seed aud could run faster jump further and holler louder and turn more sets than any boy iu the town I lived on one side of tbe street and be on tbe other aud when our mothers didn't want us to churn or pick up chips or tote water or tbt baby we was a frolicking together You see we was all poor folks then an we bad poor folks and we've got em yet to some ex- tent for if a colt is a scrub he's goin to show it as long as be lives no matter bow much you curry bim or bow high you feed him We used to play Jacky my ring all rouud tbe courthouse of moonshiny nights and pick top chestnut trees and Luster was always cut limb off tree I wonder if be has got that little hatchet 1 said we was all poor but our folks wasn't as poor as Luster's We had a store and that set us ap right Tbe fact is we ranked next o tbe lawyers and doctors aud could put on light smart airs when it was necessary I never saw a boy whose daddy had a store that didn't attach more importance to it than way be- comin and no matter bow much the other boys got the advantage of bim be could look like a little dog bis tail and say My pa has got a store Well I've a beep over it and in my ion a store is a tion to raise a family on for ir's human natur to want a power of things and if i bey are iu tbe store they are bound to have em for it looks so much like they didn't cost anything and if they did you don't have to pay no one hundred percent profit to git em and so the family rues away up der and tbe wife and children a little higher and a tle higher in the world and suddenly tbe old dog irons git out of tbe fireplace in tbe big room and a pair of brass cues git before long that calls tor a store rug wilb the pictur of a dog on it and by and by tbe rug calls for a store pet and then cornet new tains wilb tops and a sofy and a big gilt edged glass and so forth aud so on et ditto It all slips along on the old man so don't know ir and if be does be can't hardly help himself atM if be can little improvements are such promoters of domestic tranquillity be don't want to and that's what's the mailer it by ninety out of one hundred merchants fail It's home con- sumption and family pride mighty little sins wilb no mal- ice in cm but they will cause a collapse after a I've noticed these Presbyterians a long time for they aie mighty nigh all and wives can beat tbe woiM a keepin house and settin a good table and cook further off thao Bible and they memorize it all the same as tbe catechism and it don't matter what eggs cosl they'll have em nor whether money is tight or loose they've got a licen tablecloth where and napkins and spoons and forks and ware and if company comes they'll say grace over good vittles is in tbe world break or no break Won't considered it is a risky thing for a tod hopeful merchant to marry a Presbyterian gal I tell you but if he does he's got a mity good backer to cheer bim up and comfort him in misfortune oo mistake about that ia there? But I was just along I started to say that Luster's folks was poor They didn't have any goods aud lands and tenements to speak of but they bad hope aud courage and in- dustry and a good name aud never told lies on anybody nor stole until our George got at it a few years ago to the dent records and I have that if the old lady could be made to believe it she'd wollop bim now old as he is and then lay down aud die broken hearted Weil you see we boys had to go by old Ike ton patch on tbe way to school and one day we peeped through tbe crack tbe leuce aud some watermelons a I in and we we would jest git and how big and thump this aud nothing But you see Luster be wouldn't go for said his mother wouldn't like it and so the rest of us made the ure aod shore old Ike was a of us ail tbe time from his ginhouse winder and be slipped and before we could say Jack Robinson and then be marched us along to old Pat the teacher and old Pat ped us all around until Ike was satisfied and I tell you we three boys yelled amazin but Luster never opened bis mouth nor batted bis eyes which old Pat said was the and be whipped all the harder and that evenio be kept us all in to pray for us for he was a mighty good man old Pat was and we told him about George he begged bis pardon and bugged bim and I disremember whether be left him out of bis prayers or put him iu but bat evenin goin borne be was tbe first one up with rocks and pit chin into old Ike like a harry cane as soon as we met him Aud we loaded but for- for sides we ent meet and the battle was indefinitely postponed Weil in the course of time aod tide Luster got to be a right smart and Judge took a to bim and took iu bis to read aud study books with skin backs on em lie got along for 4 while but one day be got a bad fall and it liked to kilM bim for you see be fell in and struck on bis left side and as the wouldn't have him it to a fleet his heart Well tbe girl tbe liked him very much as a friend you no but she said he so much like a bear she was to get right up to biai But Luster rallied after a while picked flint and away at another one and missed and fiom that lime on be just went about a of em all like Ilice and be a society and one night when tbe loira was crowded with all the nice ple Iowa the question whether a man ia a of natur more gumption than a woman or not Luster was for the women of and he made a splendid speech aod quoted a of beautiful poetry from Gen Byron and and Col toe and girls ers at and he set down party well satisfied with seil and the rest of mankind Bat I've noticed that if a man got tbe conclusion in an argument be ain't safe by no especially if Qos Wright is to toiler him But this wasn't Gus this time It was Gib Gib Wright the same feller who is brother to and is a judge down country and curries his bead on bis left shoulder for convenience in case he's to be hung Well Gib was a splendid boy and be thort he'd set our George back a little so be rose forward to a bis and bis tobaker out of the winder ses he uies and gentlemen if other folks poetry is to gaia this case I am some myself Old mother she went to the cupboard to get the poor dog a bone diddle dle tbe cat and tbe fiddle tbe cow jumped over tbe moon Old King Cole was a jolly old soul a jolly old soul was Aud he went on after that 11 u sum minits be got the grin or Luster and Luster got mad and rose to a pint of older and be and Luster like to have had a collision but after awhile it was all smoothed over and the vote was every in the bouse for George's side aud it done him a power of good shore And he's been up tbe der ever since but next winter when he bis maiden speech in Congress he set down with half the faction he did in tbe old school house will Yours P wouldn't send this in a red shirt who was holding an ugly looking short eared bull pup by tbe collar Said pup cot tbe one in tbe red shirr was making frantic forts to reach a sad eyed dog held by a young fellow almost a boy in years Blood was on the ground and both dogs were bleeding when I came up bet yer ten ounces ter two tbet this perp is tbe said tho young fellow Ter said the other with a leer I'll bet yer you area derned lying and red shirt touched the hilt of a knife in his belt The young inao jumped to his feet drew his own aud was stepping forward amid cites of Make a Give em etc fiom tbe crowd which flocked toward tbe side of the one whom I mentally recognized by the title of red when I cried Give him a fair show then May be you want to bis part a blacky ia buckskin crowding roughly me I shan't ask your sion at any I with equal warmth bis jostle with a my elbow about his fifth rib at tbe same time drawing a knife to meet Iris own movement and the man and tho crowd drew back do you kuow to whom you are talking you ered paper to Luster's house for Don't care to I re- mout make Mrs Luster feel j looking him over should bad to know she wasn't bis judge though that you were I love rso doubt ba s kept it related to his majesty from bur up this time you know how it ia yourself don't you? B- A ONLY AN ADVENTURE BV F- O VAN GiLDER It was ic the fall that it happened tbe story I am about to relate and I have often laughed at the real vein of mor that ran though tbe whole affair At this time I was engaged to report on tbe Reno Nev Chieftain Now on au Eastern paper meant from the language you use Where the row would have ended I cannot say had not a young lady put a stop to by rushing into tho very arms of my antagonist and beseeching him not to fight I'll see you he ed as he passed me and give you a chance to stone or my name isn't Dark Darrel The young man and red shirt bad stopped proceedings as if by ruy row inter mutual consent when began and now the tog kid linen young fellow came polished boots and serving up Tm sorry sir yon cot in in sensational style a row with him on my account more sensational tbe better i for I kuow him just so we were not too You know What do less of facts But here in Reno you it was different At the time Well sir 1 came hero of which I write a gloved hand two years ago I came with my was looked upon with contempt father while white shirts and polished I boots called forth open insult Oh that's all only that man and often caused trouble were going ter fight is tbe ded with fights and bloodshed i same chap as what I ii tbe wearing apparel j ed as was often case to be tbe of a man inclined to stick out for bis supposed because any one at all familiar with the laws came out with My beloved parent Then why should he have your i of custom n ill see at a glauce insulted me for taking that a man really could have no right to intrude white Well yer see my into a community where red the old man is a little peculiar flannel and buckskin was king and don't like to have any one But of this latter I knew very as wears shirts fight little so I made my de- our Do yer and but one in October he left me clad jo dress I the point of his white kid gloves and ment went back to the office bhed boots and to match held a consultation with my aud started up tbe main street employer changed my store of town towards a corner clothes for a frontier where a dog fight was being my eye glasses threw I defined to cane and ended by reap a reward for my finally marrying tbe verv same ignorance I bad loved a dog young lady that fight ever since my boyhood I going to fight hsr father on tbe faim when with Dark I got a jewel Bob our family watch dog of a wife but as I had no I bad roamed the love for the male members tie terror of dogs and of tbe Darrel family cats and old women East and here we I would yet to Ledger some bad end which prophecy j Sycamore III became verified when I turned reporter But I bad not seen An elderly lily head nawe a fight for and I now in an institution for children rushed into the crowd with my disposed to magnify her lips ready to form a s-s She calls herself and drew up near a large man I YORK
