The Boy From Zeeny

Hts adreot in our little country town was at one© abrupt and norel. Why ho came, when he came, or how he came, we boys never knew. My first remembrance of him Is of hi* sudden appearance in the midst of a Came of •■Ant'ny-over.” in which a doxen buys besides myself were most enthusiastically engaged The scene of the exciting contest was the center
of the main street of the town, the in his passion he snatched up frem
for all that, be did some very emclent work in the way of a deft and telling blow or two upon the nose of his overpowering foe. who sat astride his wriggling body, but wholly unable to get in a lick. •‘Dura you!" said Billy, with his hand gripping the boy’s throat, “holler 'nough!” “Holler nothin’!" gurgled the boy. with his eyes fairly starting from his
head
“Oh. let him up. Billy." called a compassionate voice from the excited crowd. "Holler 'nough and I will." said Billy. In a tragic whisper In the hoy's i ear. "Darn ye! holler ‘Calfrqpe!’" The boy only shook his head, trembled convulsively, let fall his eyelids. ! and lay limp and. to all appearance. I unconscious. I The startled Billy loosed his hold, j rose half-way to his feet, then fiercely pounced again at his rivali But It was too late. The ruse had succeeded, and the boy was once more on his feet. “You fight like a dog!" said the strange boy. In a tone of infinite contempt—"and you air a dog' Put up yer props like a man and come at me. and I'll mettel yeh head till yer mother won’t know you! Come on! I dare you!"
elevation over which we tossed th> ball being the skeleton remains of a grand triumphal arch, left as a sort of cadaverous reminder of some recent political demo:.stration. Although 1 recall the boy’s external appearance upon that occasion with some vagueness. 1 vividly remember that his trousers were much too large and long, and that his heavy, flapping coat

street a broken buggy-spoke, before which warlike weapon the strange boy was forced warily to retreat. Step by step he gave way. and step by step his threatening foe advanced. I think, perhaps, part of the strange boy’s purpose In thus retreating was to trm himself w.th one of the “axhandles” thsi protruded from a churn standing In front of a grocery..toward which he slowly bscked cross the sidewalk. However that may be. It la evident he took no note of an open cellar-way that lay behind him. over the brink of which he deliberately backed, throwing up bis hands as he disap-

the crowd that thronged In front, and climbing by a roundabout way and ove- a high board fence Into the back yard, sec.etly potted themselves at the blinded window In the rear of the little one-roomed office and oreathieaaly awaited news from within. "They got him laid on the settee." whispered a venturous boy who had leaned a board against the windowsill snd climbed into a position commanding the enviable advantage of a broken window pane. “I kin aee him through a hole In the curtain. Keep
aril!!
"They got hit coat off. and his sleeve railed up." whispered the boy. in continuation—“and the doctor's a-givln’ him some medicine In a tumbler. Now he's a-pullin’ hla arm. Gee-mun-nee) I kin hear the bones
crunch!"
"Haln’t be e-cryln’?" queried a milkfaced boy, with very Urge blue eyes and One white hair and a grieved expreaalon aa he apoke. "Haln’t he
a-crjinT’
"Well, he haln’t!“ said the boy in the window, with unconscious admira-
tion. “Urten!
"I heerd him thlst tell ’em ‘at If wasn’t the first time hi* arm was broke. Now keep still!'’ and the boy In the window again bent hla ear to
the broken pane.
“He say* both hla arm's be n broke." continued the boy In the window — "says thls-'un 'at’a broke now'a be n broke two tinea ’fore this time." ‘Dog-gone! hain’t he a funny feller'" said the milk-faced boy. with hie big eyes lifted wistfully to the
boy In the window.
"He say* onc't hli pap broke bis arm w'en be was whlppln' him," whispered the hoy In the window. "Bet his pa's a wicked men!" said the milk-faced boy. In a dreamy, speculative way—"s'pect he'# a drunkard,
er aomeplc'!"
"Keep still.'' said the boy at the window; "they're tryln' to git him to tell hia pap'a name and hla. and he don’t do It. 'cause he says hla pap comes and steals him ever' time
finds out where he Is."
The milk-faced boy drew a long, quavering breath and gazed suspiciously round the high board fence
of the enclosure.
“He says his pap used to keep a liberty stable in Zeeny—in Ohio som'ers —but he daresa't eUy round there no more, cause he broke up there, and had to skedadd!: er they'd clean him out! He says he hain't got no mother, ner no brothers, ner no sUtera. ner no nothin'—on'y." the boy in the window added, with a very dry and painful swallow, "he aaya he hain't got nothin' on'y thist the clothes on bis
back!"
’Yes, i-ni I bet." bmke in the milkfaced boy, abruptly, with his thin Ups compressed, and his big eyes fixed on space—"yes. and 1 bet he kin lick Billy Klnxey. cf his arm Is broke!” At tb*s Juncture, someone inside coming to raise thi window, the boy at the broken pane leaped to the ground, and. flocking at his heels, bis frightened comrades bobbed one by one over the horizon of the high fence
and were fine in an Instant.
80 it wa.v the hero of thla sketch came to be k nown as 'The Hoy From
Boy from Zeeny. though
"The toys 1b this town's t^osm on you?" raid a cross-eyed, freckled boy. one day. to The Boy from Zeeny. The Boy from Zeeny was sitting In the alley window of the hayloft of the doctor's stable, and the cross-eyed boy had paused below, and. with his no-ward-looklng eyes upturned, stood waiting the effect of this Intelligence"What do I care for the boys In this town?" said The Boy from Zeeny. "The boys In this tows" repeated the cross-eyed boy. with a slow, prophetic flourish of his head—“the boys In this town says 'cause yon come from Zeeny and blacked Billy Klnzey'a eye. 'at you think you're goln' to run things rannd here! And you'll find out you ain’t the boast o' this town!" and the cross-eyed bey shook bis head again with dire foreboding. “Looky here. Cocky!" said The Boy from Zeeny, trying to focus a direct gaze on the boy's delusive eyes, "w'y don't you talk straight out from the shoulder? I reckon ‘the boys In this town.' as you calls 'em. didn't send yov round here to tell me what they wai goln' to do! But ef you want to take it up fer 'em. and got any sand to back you, Jett szy It. and HI come down there and knock them durn twisted eye o' youra straight ag'ln!” "Yes. you will!" muttered the crosseyed boy. with dubious articulation, glancing uneasily up the alley. "What?" growled The Boy from Zeeny. thrusting one dangling leg farther cut the window, supporting his weight by the palms of his hand, and poised as though about to spring—
"what id yon a*y?“
“Didn't say nothin'." said the crosseyed boy. feebly; and then, as a sodden snd most bewildering smile lighted up his defective eyes, be exclaimed: "Oh. I tell you what's le'a do! De's me and you git up a show la your stable, and don't let none o’ the other boys be in It! I kin turn a handspring like you. and purt' nigh walk on my hands; and you kin p'fonn on the slack-rope—and spraddle out he inJe tubber man'—and hold a pitchfork on yer chin—ard stand up on a horse ithout a-ho!dln'—and—and —Oh! everthlng!" And as the crosseyed boy breathlessly concluded this llsl of strong attractions, he had The Boy from Zeeny so thoroughly Inoculated with the enterprise that ho warmly closed with the proposition, and the prep«rations sad tbs practice for the show were at once inaugu-
rated
Three hours later, an extremely ernas-ered boy. with the freckles of bis face thrown Into vlvij relief by an Intense pallor, rushed panting!' Into the doctor's office with the fateful, intelligence that The Boy from Zeeny had "fell and broke hi* arm agin." And this time, as it seemed, the helpless boy had surpassed the seriousness of ail former fractures, this last being of a compound nature, and very painful Ip the setting, and tedious in recovery; the recovery/ too. being anything but perfect, since It left the movement of the elbow somewhat re hirlctcd. and threw the Utile fellow's arm Into an unnatural position, with the palm of the hsnd turned forward as he walked. But for all that, the u*e of was. to all appearances, little Impaired. Douh'iett it waa through such
more Into the hands of his unnctoral
parent
Certain It was that the feelings of nil who knew the lad's story showed hearty sympathy with him, and when one morning it was rumored that The Boy from Zeeny had mysteriously disappeared. and the rumor rapidly developed Into an unquestionable fact, there waa a universal sense of regret in the little town, which In tern resolved Itself into positive Indignation when <t was learned from the doctor that an explanation, printed In red keel on the back of a fragment of circus poster, had been found folded and tucked away In the bucklestrap of hla horse’s bridle. The somewhat remarkable communication, in sprawling capitals, ran thus: "Paps got me agin I haf to go. Dam him. Doc tel hir to keep my boocka. Good by. I fed ole Charlr. I fed him otes and ha an corn. He wont newd no more fer a weak. An brand to. Doc tel her good by." It was a curious bit of composition —uncouth, assuredly, and marred, maybe, with an unpardonable profanity—but It served . In the silence and gloom of the old stable, the doctor’s fingers trembled aa he read, and the good wife's eyet. peering anxiously above his heaving shoulder, filled and overflowed with tears. I wish that it were in the veracious sequence of this simple history to give thla wayward boy back to the hearts that loved him. and that still In memory enshrine him with affectionate regard: but the hapless lad—the little ragged twelve-year-old that wandered out of nowhere'Into town, and wan dered Into nowhere out again—never returned. Yet we who knew him In those old days—we who were children with him, and. in spite of boyish jealousy and petty bickerings, admired the gallant spirit of the lad—ere continually meeting with reminders of him; the last instance of which, in my own experience. .1 cannot refrain from offering here; For years 1 have been a wanderer from the dear old town of my nativity, bnt through all my wanderings a gracious fate has always kept me somewhere In !ts pleasant neighborhood, and. In consequence. I often pay brief visit* to the scene* of my long-van-ished boyhood- It was during such a visit, but a few short years ago. that remembrance* of p>y lost youth were most forcibly recalled by the progress of the county fair, which Institution I waa permitted to attend through the kindness of an old churn who drove me over in his baggy. Although it was not the day for raclag. we found the track surrounded by a dense crowd of damorons and applauding people. "What does It mean?" I asked my friend, as he guided his horse In and out among the tree* toward the edge of the Indos ire. “It's Professor Andrus. I suspect." he answered, rising In the buggy ns ho spoke, and peering eagerly aoove the heads of the surging multitude. "And who's Professor Andrus?” I asked, striking a match against the tire of the now stationary buggywheel. and lighting the stamp of my
cigar.
"Why, haven't you beard of the famous professor?" he answered, laughingly—Immediately adding in a serious tone; "Professor Ai.drns is the famous 'horse-tamer' who has been driving the country absolutely wild here for two or three days Stand up here where you can aee!" he went on, excitedly. "Yonder he romee! Isn't that splendid?" And it was. Across the sea of heads, and facing toward us down the track, I caught
sight of a glossy span of horses that in their perfect beauty of symmetry, high heads and tossing manes looked as though they were Just prancing out of some Arabian dream The animals seemed nude of rein or harness, save only a teweled strap thr.t crossed the breast of each, together with a slender tmcc at either side connecting with a jaunty little phaeton whose glittering wheels slivered the sunshine Into splinters as they spun. Upon the narrow seat of the airy vehicle sat the driver. No lines were wound about his hands—no shout or lath to goad the horse* to their telling speed. They were simply directed and controlled by the graceful motions of a long and alender whip which waved alowiy to and fro above their heads. The great crowd cheered the master as he esme. He arose deliberately, took off his hat. and bowed. The applause was deafening. Still standing, be whizzed past us and aa* gone. But something In the mant er of the hand some fellow struck me with a strange sense of fsmlllarlty. Was It the utter disregard of fear that I saw on his , face? Was it the keenness of the eye ■ and the perfect self-possession of the man? Or was It—was it the peculiar i way In which the right arm had ' dropped to his tide after his salute to us while curving past us, and did 1 fancy, for that reason, that the palm of hla band turned forward as be stood? “Clear the track, there!" came a far voice ar- - ! vt "Don'l cross there. In God's nuuii;! Drive back!" The warning evidently came too late There was an instant's breath- - less silence, then a faraway, pentsounding clash, then utter havoc la ! the crowd: The ropes about the ring were broken ovet. nnd a tumultuous tide of people poured across the ring, myself borne on the very foremost
wave
“Jest the buggy smashed, that' all!” cried a voice. 'The bosses hain't hurt—ner the man." 1 The man referred to was the professor. I caught a glimpse of him as he rose from the grassy bank where he had been flung. He pras very pale, but calm. An uncouth man brought him hia silk h*' from where it had rolled In the dual. "Wish you’d Just take this hsndkerchlef and brush It oft." said the professor; T guess I’ve broke my arm/ It was The Boy from Zeeny.
