of American Independence. I'll help you all I can. We'll go with you to ring up old Barkis and get one of his best teams. We'll rouse up old jim Kasson and get one of his kids to go with you. Give the kid a half dollar and he'll jump at the chance. The news soon spread that Sparrow was going to leave, and he was surrounded with a crowd of seemingly admiring friends. who congratula- ted him upon his spirit. By to-morrow evening the building will be emptied, except for old Pally and the hobo. Imagine the way old Pally will growl, exclaimed jackson. Barker and Sparrow, with two or three others hurried forth. Black jim Kasson was aroused and one of his boys hired. The hostler at the livery stable of Barkis 8z Co.'s finally appeared and a horse and buggy were secured. Good-byes were said and Sparrow with his small dusky companion began their long drive. - The clock was striking three when Barker and his comrades re-entered the college. Among the number awaiting them was Watson., Barker rushed to him and throwing his arms around him, exclaimed, Oh my dear hobo! what a quick recovery! almost miraculous. Rejoice, fellows, the smallpox is a thing of the past and Sparrow has gone to his home- to his home. Rejoice, fellow citizens and patriots of Thornhill, and Barker and Watson executed a war dance. The next morning the affair was noised about the town and everybody was laughing at the practical joke, but reports began to be noised abroad from the country regions that smallpox had broken out in the town and college. In some way even Sparrow learned by Monday that he had been tricked. A 'few days later he returned to college, a very quiet and modest young man. But alas for his hope that he would live the joke down: Winfield Hancock Sparrow exists only in the catalogue. To the college community he is only Smallpox and The Hobo.
