Lost in the Desert The family of Mr. Godfrey Hughes, a member of the firm of assayers owning the cuetoms assay office, recently went to epend the summer months visiting friends who own a large ranch about seventeen miles above Albuquerque, reports the EI Paso Times The famlily consists of the mother, two sons and a daughter. Re- cently the children asked permission of thelr mother to go to a corral some three hundred yards away from the house and on the other side of a knoll that obscured the corral from view to play. Permission was given and the youngstere bounded away for their afternoon frolic. Soon the little sister wearied and the elder brother proposed that they take her to the house To this the younger brother, Emerson, who was only 6 years old, demurred, as he wished to play more. So the older brother took his sister to the house. Upon the ar- rival there the mother asked, “Where 1s brother?' “We left him playing at the corral,” eaid the boy. The mother then sent him little truant. Shortly the back, panting from the hurry of running and exclaimed that his brother was no- where to be found; that he was not at the corral. The frightened mother hurrled over to the corral and there found the re- port of her boy to be true. She searched and searched, but could find no trace of the missing child. At last she came upon some little footprints showing that the child had taken a direction the opposite to what he should have taken, and the ha- raseed mother became more and more alarmed as the fact that her child had strayed and was in all probabllity lost be- came apparent. She followed the footprints for three miles and only ceased because darkness was approaching and she was powerless and had to call for ald. As rap- fdly as her nervoue and exhausted state would permit she retraced her steps to the house and alarmed the household. Tmme- dlately a search party was organized and despite the oncoming night started but In quest of the helpless child. Through that disheartening night the weary search continued. And the next day the trained services of seventy-five Indians were Impressed and all that long and try- ing day the search went on and yet no clue to the wanderer. The grief and agony of the poor aflicted mother were beyond con- solation. The continued discouraging ra. ports that were from time to time brought her only added to accentuate her suffering. The tracks could be followed for a distance of twelve miles and then seemed to doubie upon themselves and finally became lost. Without rest the searchers continued in what seemed thelr hopeless quest. The thought of the poor little tot belng out upon the dreary plains alone, without shelter or food, wandering on with the helplessness of the lost, crylng possibly with fright, tormented by the pangs of hunger and thirst, was simply maddening to the poor mother and friends seeming o helpless to terminate the trying situation All of Sunday night the search continued and early Monday morning the father, who had been ignorant of the tragedy, wae wired. He arrived that day and added his untiring efforts to those of the large party already out. To think of the dreadful pathos of it all! The poor child was not found until Wednesday morning. It was then found by a Mexican, who carried the exhausted Int- tle form to his cabin, where the child lin- gered for three hours and then passed away. The ordeal had been beyond the little one’'s endurance. The remains were taken back to the ranch and next day were Interred In the cemetery of the neighboring village. Their Ruling Passion New York Sun: back for the messenger came “When I was in Florida a few weeks ago,” sald the Brooklyn man, “l overheard a dispute between two darkies as to the color of the skin of cer tain biblical personages. I won't attempt to give you thelr dialect. One declared with much vehemence that the apostles were all negroes, and to prove his case told of the geographical position of Palestine as com- pared with Africa. ‘They are all colored persons in Africa,’ he said, ‘and Africa is right near Palestine. Peter and all the apostles were black men, and T know it.’ ‘“‘They were not black men,” replied the other, ‘and Peter was as white as that northern gentleman over there.’ ‘“‘What makes you so sure that Peter wasn't a colored gentleman?' asked his ad versary. ‘*‘Well, if Peter had been a colored gentleman that cock wouldn’t have crowed more than once.'" A Deep One Baltimore American “l presume,’” he said, with an air of deep thought, “that the daily study of the peculiarities and features of meteorological conditions is responsible in some part for making the weather-vane." Noticing that his listeners preserved an unsmiling silence, he went on to show by argument and example that undue notice of any peculiarity or trait to make the possessor proud. But still they demanded a diagram. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Philadelphia Record “A wig can make the greatest difference in a man's appear- ance,” sald the hotel clerk. ‘I never real- ized this fully until the other morning, when the third floor chambermaid announced that two men were occupying room 318, and she was sure that only one man was registered. was apt She sald this had been going on for a week or more. I looked up the register and founa that room 318 was assigned to one man, and set out to investigate. The chambermata sald she had on several occasions seen a baldheaded man in a dressing gown going and coming from the room to the bath, and then had noticed another man with curly black hair leave the room a few minutes later. As delicately as I could I broached the matter to the fellow who I remembered had registered—the one with the curly black hair—and he insisted upon explaining how the misapprehension had occurred by removing his wig. He wasn’'t at all sens!- tive about it."” New Collecting Method Philadelphia Record: “You've made a mistake in my bill,” sald a young man ex- citedly the other day to the proprietor of a prominent tailoring house. ‘““That can't be,” asserted mildly. ““Oh, but it's s0,” exclaimed the youth in a flurry. “Look here! Ten dollars too much charged on this bill.” The proprietor compared the bill with his books. “You're right, Mr. Blank,” he ad- mitted. “I'll take $10 off, and how much did you say you wanted to pay on account?"” The young man grew red, coughed, and finally produced a $5 note. “That works every time,”” confided the tailor to an interested bystander, after the customer had departed. ‘Nothing brings a man here in such a hurry as to overcharge him on his bill. When a customer gets a little backward and dodges the place I send him a bill overcharging him. He comes on a rush to have the mistake corrected, and a little diplomacy does the rest. Best of all, it doesn’t hurt his feelings, as would a visit from a collector.” the tailor, ome Fool Questions Philadelnhia Teleg'aph: ““Wea all have our troubles,” saic tte colored philosoplher who runs the elevator in the postoffice, “‘but the worst of it is that we think no one has any but ourselves. My greatest trouble Is answering fool questions, and I get a good many of them in the course of the day. The other day there was a hung jury, and one of 'em asked me if we had good beds for jurymen who were kept over night! 1 told him I hadn’'t seen any yet, and I'd been here a good while. The weather bureau hung their sign as usual in the elevator, It said ‘falr,’ and that's all, same as it often does. It hadn't been there five minutes when a man from up the state came in and asked me: ‘Where's this yer fair at?” T told him it was in the circuit court room If it was anywhere. ‘Wall,’ says he, ‘T can’t take it in, I've got to go to the circus.” And that's the way I get 'em right along.” Pointed Paragraphs Chicago News: he is down.
