Last Wednesday afternoon the
town was all excitement over the
announcement that the 3-year
old boy of H. F. Powell had stray-
ed off and was lost. The news
spread and practically every
man and woman in town went
out to the north part of town
to search for the little one, and
every foot of ground and all the
ravines were thoroughly examin-
ed for hours, without success,
until late in the afternoon.
Mrs. Powell came in from the
country and was visiting at the
home of J. S. Sears. Ihe child!
was missed about noon and af- j
ter s search of the premises the j
alarm was given when the whole]
town turned out to search. When
the local freight came in from I
the north the conductor reported
that lie had passed a bareheaded
little boy on the right of away
about four miles back, evidently
the child they were looking for. |

CORBIN & LYNCH
DRUGGISTS
One of the limited trains was all of
half an hour late in leaving Washing-
ton for its warm weatherward run to
the south one night last week, and
some of the second-splitters in the
lowers had begun to make remarks
about the people who wouldn’t keep
their cows at home, before there was
any getaway racket from the choo-
choo. Hut it's a wonder the train left
at all. There was a great man at the
station that night, and the train was
held for him, though he didn’t take it
after all. This wms the way of it.
On that particular evening a local
newspaper man who hadn’t traveled
much since the I. C. C. got the legis-
lative hypodermic, went down to the
station to meet his home-bound sjxmse
who’d beep doing some family visit-
ing up near Smck wille. Her train was
due at 6:19, but his watch was dizzy,
and he landed at the main gate an
easy half hour ahead of time.
“Leave me hurdk' the harrier,” he
suggested mildly to the blue back of
the fat gateman. “My wife is coming
home, and I want to wait by the par-
allels and give her the grand clutch
C3 s 'it as she alights from Mrs.
Pall'unit's little w agon."
“Nope,” replied the fat gateman
without turning around. "It’s against
the rules.”
"nut," suggested the newspaper
man not so mildly. “I've got a no-
tion I’m going out there, and—"
But he didn't have time to finish,
for the gateman fixed his face for
a real crushing look and sw’ung
around. A second later that gate-
man’s host friends wouldn’t have
known him. He got red in the face,
then white, then red again, lifted hi3
lid, bowed and swung the gate open
so fast its hinges smoked, remarking,
with a sickly grin: “You will have
your little joke, sir.”
The newspaper man drifted through
in a hazy dream effect, and began
walking up and dowm the platform,
wondering whether he wouldn’t better
go back and hand the fat gateman
one on the nose for his real fresh,
funny actions. Hut he noticed (hat
the gateman had called some more
uniforms to his side, and that the
bunch had their heads together, think-
ing in whispers and looking in his
direct’on.
The newspaper man began to get
worried. He looked himself over, dis-
covered that he was wearing his
shoes, that he hadn’t forgotten his
shirt, and that there were no signs
hanging around his person. And he
had just about decided to register a
diagnosis of congenital lunacy against
the crowd when u^e of the uniforms
wobbled toward him.
"Is there anything I can do for
I you? ’ he inquired.
The newspaper man, pretty well
convinced that somebody was trying
to get gay with him. scowled fero-
ciously. “Net a thing,” he replied,
grouchily, whereupon the official said:
“Thank you, sir,” and went away look-
ing as happy as a Boston broker on a
copper holiday.
About a minute later a portly per-
son in uniform steamed up, nodded re-
spectfully and touched his hat.
“No. 6 is pretty nearly on time, sir,”
he remarked.
“Telephone that up to the office,”
said the newspaper man, shortly. "It's
worth an extra edition any day.”
And at that particular moment he
began to feel light in the head. For
the effect of that little pleasantry on
the station master was something
fearful to behold. He curled up and
laughed and uncurled and laughed
some more. And after he was all
through laughing he mt trotting
around the station telling that re-
mark to all the uniforms in sight,
aud the train shed was certainly a real
hilarious place for awhile.
But five minutes later the uniform-
ed person steamed back, looking i es-
I 'red in the head, and did anuth .r
lowly approach.
“Beg i ardon, sir,” he said, “but
when 1 saw you come In I wired down,
aud there’s a drawing-room on six br-
ing saved for you.”
“That’s mighty thoughtful." re-
plied the newspaper man, and the
person did another departure, purring
as contentedly as a Maltese cat.
Then No. 6 steamed in, and for the
next 20 or 25 minutes the newspaper
uf’i got dippler every second. Every
•itrache of the station had their lames
.1 • d on him all the time, and he bo-
I van to feel as ] rominent as J. Diggum
Rock ‘fuller and John Alexander Dowle
| rolled into one. But the air was full
I of tension. Seventeen people in uni*
! form stood around looking as if they'd
, like to suggest something if they
dared, and finally one of them drifted
I up looking trembly about the chin,
and gave a ) relimlnary cough:
“Beg l ardon, sir; excuse* me for
i mentioning it, and I’m sorry to dia-
! turb you.’ Jm said at length, “but
i wo ve holer No. 6 2rt minutes for you,
j and if you could come now, sir, we—”
•1 guess 1 won't go to-night," said
the newspaper man, suppressing with
difficulty a wild desire to hit some one
I writ a baggage truck, and the man in
uniform, alter opening and closing his
mouth half a dozen times in the matt
ner of a dying shad, managed to pull
the get*awav signal, and the limited
pulled out. Then the newspaper man
met his wife und went home, studying
the initials in his card case and
wondering if he'd better see a doctor
in the morning. And ever since he's
been wondering and pesteriug and
trying to figure out whether every-
body at the station was crazy that
night.
