John Nicodemus, colored, gives the Post the following account of it: “T called at the White House tother day, and sent in my keard to de President; den I sot down to wait. Ater a while he sent word dat as I wus a preacher he'd see me, as I mought have to tend tosome of de Lord’s busi- ness, When I went in hesez: ‘How do ye do, Brother Nicodemus?’ I said I wus well, an’ we shuk han’s all 'roun’, ‘What's de news from Ohio, Mistah President?’ sez 1, smilin’. And sez he: ‘De Lord and the majority has been on our side, Brother Nicodemus—amen.’ He's a monstus pious man, Mr. Hayes is. Why, he sings sams every Sunday evenin’, and won't even ride to church on de Lord's day in his own carriage. He goes an’ rides in Mr. Sher- man’s. He axed me how de cullahed folks wus a gittin’ along, an’ ef der morals wus im- provin’. He said he thought when a cullahed pusson had any morals dat dey wus, on de average, a bettah article of morals dan de white folks’ morals; an’ axed me ef I wus favorin’ de exodus of de niggahs down Souf. Den I ups an’ tells him, ‘Dat is jess what 1 called to see you fur, Mistah President. I'm ahandin’ roun’ de hat for de pore cullahed pussons who's had to sell their fine farms for a mos’ nuthin’, and move out to Kansas,’ ‘I feel monstus sorry for ’em, Brother Nicodemus, De Lord will provide an’ He knoweth his own. You know de prophet of old was fed by ra- vens.’ ‘But dar ain't no ravens wuff a cent out in Kansas now, Mistah President,’ says I. Den he kinder smiled a pious smile, and open- in’ his pocket-book handed me a dollar bill. ‘ Pray over it Brother Nicodemus an’ it will be increased, like de widow's cruse of oil.’ And I shuk han’s an’ left.” — Washington Post. Ir that medical student in Baltimore had been out robbing a grave instead of attending a theatre the chances are that he wouldn't have been shot. No one ever loses anything by attending to his business.—Detroit Free Press. Ir is fun, these frosty mornings, to see half- a-dozen men standing about the empty stove in the dépdt, some with fingers held out tow- ards the hollow mockery, and others with hands separating their coat-tails, that the sup- posititious warmth may more easily thaw out their spinal columns as they stand back to the | 6; stove, while half-a-dozen more, who have drawn up their chairs, sit closely and content- edly about it, enjoying to the full its barme- cide heat. Truly the pleasures of the imagi- nation are many and marvelous. — Boston Transcript.
