Peyton’s carcer. Many business men and particularly trav- eling salesmon will be shocked at the an- nouncement, foronly a little more than six months ago Peyton was swinging over the country a prince of good fellows among a host of friends. The why and wherefore of his rapid de- scent is hest and most fully told by that old expression—he was his own wi enemy. And in this case liguor was the principal part of that worst enemy Six weeks ago County Poormaster M honey found & man in the Bohemian quarter of the city who was “about dead and hadn’t acent. It was learncd that the voor follow had been wande i ly about down there until he be oo'weak to stand and had charitabl given food and shelter, such as the . by the occupants of a hovel. After keeping him for some time and bemg unable to do so longer the occupunts notifiecd Mr. Mahoney, who came and re- moved the stranger ‘to a ward in the poor house. The immedi i his sinking to such a condition, or how it he came to be in that part of the will perhaps always remain a my thougl it was provably the result of a lon continued spree. When he come to & ful realization of being in the poor houso aud a dying man he soaled his 1ips as to his family connections, and stolidly awaitew the speedy death which' his excesses had now brought inevitably near, He was educated in Scotland and was probably the mostexpert chemist over turned out by & European school Bui he couldn’t let liquor alone, and soon after his making a brilliant start in the world he became almost hopelessly within its ow L He was with several of the leading drug houses in the count At one time he was chemist for Park, Davis & Co., Detroit, the largest wholesale drug house in America He was 1130 chemist of “the Omaha Medical collewre for a long time. At the time of his decease he was forty- eight yeurs old. Ho is said to have been mar- ried, although as yet it been impossible to ascertain anything in the way of informa- tion regarding his family rolations. Too bad, too bad, that so bright, so genial and capable man as “Bob" Peyton should find a grave in the potter's field. Tackled the Wrong Man.

The ovganization of the commercial trayel- ers of Now Orleans materialized last week, at the elogant club rooms, No, 4 Carondelet streot when 150 “knights of the grip,” to- gothor witha host of invited guests, ns- sembled to do honor to the occasion. The Commercial Travelers' association dates its existonco from the early and their first recorded part of the yoar, effort at concerted uction was incidental to the mardi-gras fes- tivities. Then it was that tho necessity of suitablo club rooms became manifest, and carnest effort has resultod in secuving their presont magnificent quarters, The old Bo: ton club building was decided upon as a suit- =ble location, and to suit the convenienc of the woml evs, cluborate alterations and im: provements — were made, placing the commercial ors! elub room among the models of its kind in the city. Entering the spacious hallway and go- ing up a flight of Bru parlors aro reached uriously furnish sel-carpoted stairs the Theso parlors are lux- 1 with velvet Brussels car- pets, tapestried chairs and settees. Proof- print engravings and paintings lino the richly papered walls, A handsome carved mi hogany Emerson piano and costly statuary complete the surroundings of clegance and comfort. To the rear of the parlors Is the sitting room, leading to a bar, The third floor is occupied ns the billiard and po room, two Brunswick-Balko and Collende Dilliard tables and ono pool table constituting the vutfit. Bath rooms, storo rooms and pri- vate sitting rooms aro distributed throughout tho remaining portions of tho building, cach apartment being provided with electric bells. Quite Wholesome.

Tho reason of this is plain from the fact that you are approached instead of approaching. There is a reputation to be sustained by the drummer and it consists in selling goods where goods are not wanted, To do this he fiashies up every inducement nnd quotes his very lowest prices.

The Spring Hen Joke. Dickson of Chicago, one of the gravost and most polite men on the road, stopped at a hotel not long ago where spring chicken was the piece de resistanc of the menu. When the w: 'r brought his portion to him he tried it with his knife, and then critically began to examine it. The waiter noticed him and coming around, said : “What's de mattah, boss? Anything wrong wid dat chickin No, waiter, There's nothing I can discove What foh yo' done look at hit dat away, den?

Atlanta Constitution: Bony Driggers was a character, ature exhausted herself in adding a variety of incongruous supplements to his make-up that were continuous sources of surprise and dismay to his parents as they «\uwlup«u. one by one, \luring his growth, His face was a study in physiognomy, from the roots of hay-colored hair, down to his narrow, retreating forehead to where his squint eyes bulged out like twin beacons set on either side of the base of the promontory of his circumlo- cutory nose, Beneath the twisted beak of that snuflling appendage yawned a mouth that was protected by a row of yellow, protuding teeth, so gruesome that they kept the thin upper lip in perpetual ré trent. Poor Bony! His real name v poleon Bonapurte Driggers, which wi such a cruel satire on the looks of the boy that folks ealled him Bony, for pity’s ke. If his face was ugly his figure ‘ked it up. Stoop shouldered and row chested, his logs were so crooked that it was said that his mother used a reap hook in measuring the clothes for his breeches. More than this, he talked through his nose and listened—well, he didn sten much, for he was deaf usa post, and nothing short of a yell in his good ear could make him understand In tho same community lived o maiden whose unloveliness was o nightmare for the dream of Bony Driggers, That was Samanthy Slayback. nd tiresome, she tried to reduce her altitude by curving out her spine and pulling b thin neck down betwixt her angular shoulders, Her features were gular in their irregularit Her keen little green eyes could scareely discover tha tip of her turned-up noseé, and she had practiced a smirk until her lips wero twisted clear out of line. Her head was covered with a shock of brick-colored hair, and the 0 two colors of freckles onher thin, weasened checks. One sturdy champion remained 1 her front teeth, and that stood out 1 aggressive manner, as if defying of time. Against this tusk snuff-brush, in a nonchalant, we sort of a way, as if it inde- Tall in the ravages rested a devil-may- were a constant reminder of the pendent spirit of its bearer. You might have dropped a plumb- line from the point of her chin to the tips of her toes, and there would have been no contact between it and her five feet six of perpendicularit Worst of all, she was near-sighted,and was consequontly kept in blissful ignor- ance of her make-up, as she could not press her nose and chin close enough to the looking-glass to enable her to see her own imperfections. This hopeful couple fell in love. Not s things generally go, altogether by pntravies in such matters; but on the other hand, their similtitude 5 0l marred by different styles of uncomeli nes One would supposed that in such an affair as this,if the parties were satis- fied with each other, no one else could could possibly have the heart to com- plain, but such was not the case. Old man Slayback disliked Bony most heartily, and he said: of that blasted yeath worrum puts his foot inside o’ my door I'll larrup the hide off'n ’im.

W'y I'd see 'im in Pokytaglio In the same neighborhood, but on the other side of the river lived ‘Squire Leatherhead, who was an inveterate fisherman and an mediocre farmer, He would not have given one hour on the banks of the Ockolockoochee river, in red-bolly season, for the finest ten- acre field of corn in the county:. Squire Lentherhead and 1 were great cronies, and many’s the day we have sat on the banks of that sluggish stream and watched our feathered covks floating on the curling eddies of wine coloved water, waiting for a nibble, whilo the soft winds eroon a lullaby among the swaying boughs of the stalwart pines, and the red birds flitted from bm‘(n to brake like a flash of light illuminating the sombro surroundings. - One morning in the carly part of May I chanced to be at Squire Leatherhead’s home, and after o few squints at the sky he thrust his finger into his mouth,with- drew it and holding it up a half minute, remarked: “I knowed it.

But I am di from my story, and I must return to my subjoct. The sun rode high in the heavens when wo reached the bluff where tho squive kept his boat tied, and as we scrambled down the bank he peered anxiously beneath the folinge of the big tupelo, and, turning to mo with a look of disgust, he ejaculated: “Durn my liver ef the boat ain’t gone!
