II, No. 44.CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, AUGUST 30, 1894.JIM RIDDLE AND HIS FIDDLE.PART I."Fiddlin, farmin and filling up down In India­na.Jim Riddle always made this answer to enquir­ies about his former business. Proprietor of the"general store" at ville, a country town inKansas, Jim Riddle was honored, respected and.well patronized for his honesty, sobriety and kind­ness. Political emoluments had even been heapedupon him. No less than five ,times had the highesthonor in the gift of that people been thrust uponhim and no less than five times had he accepted thesame. The onerous duties of the mayoralty didnot jeopardize his business interests as he had timefor both and time to spare. When questioned as tohis former business, Jim feared that silence mightbe interpreted as a desire on his part to conceal thepast, which, being an honest man and frank, hewould not do. . But this open hearted ness andfrankness did not call for detail, and he never fur­nished it when they asked about something he con­strued to be strictly his own affair. Then too, Jimwasn't exactly proud of his past record, and beinga man of eminence, property and public office henaturally preferred that the noontide of his prosper­ity should not be dimmed by anything so obscureas his' 'doins down Indiana." Five times mayorof ville! How could that be compared withhaving been at 'one time champion fiddler of -­county, Indiana. 'Tis true that Jim came mightynear getting world-wide fame around those partsafter his defeat of a "Professor of fiddlin" who hap­pened down that way, giving concerts on the "vi9-lin." The contest was short. Old 'Squire Swifter,farmer Whispering and Jake Ringer, proprietor ofthe largest dance hall in the county, were the judg­es, and occupied the very front seat, hoping there­by to embarrass the "professor" by' 'looking athim sharp."It was a hot night, the hall packed almost tosuffocation and the old squire's bald head sweatgreat drops for fear he shouldn't "ketch the feller'seye and make him break down." The' 'professor"appeared first and last. Long hair, dreamy eyes,pale face-he stepped be'fore an audience hushedwith breathless excitement. After taking his violinfrom a long, slender box, he began tuning up.After a long time, it seerped an age to the old squire, his bow began moving slowly across thestrings. Scarcely audible at first-one wouldn'thave thought him playing at all if his bow had notbeen moving-a sound stole over the audience-asingle tone at first, then another and others untila majestic chord swept through the hall. Ah! hishand trembles! The old squire has caught hiseye! Is he going to break down?' His whole armis shaking violently! A thrill passes through theaudience responding to the magnificent tremolocoming from the violin. The old squire leans for­ward expectantly, the professor looks at him, butonly smiles as the chord dies away. The last vi­bration had hardly ceased when the old 'squirejumped to his feet and said: "no man as claims tobe a fiddler and holds his bow by two fingers anholds his fiddle between his thumb an finger keep­in his wrist straight an not puttin it agin the fiddlelike Jim does, and who sees how long he kin hangonter one tone and how long it'll take him to fiddlefrom one end of his bow to t' other, can't comedown here to show Jim Ri ddle how to fiddle.Therefore we the jury pronounces Jim winner ofthis contest."At this juncture, Jim's fiddle was heard downstairs in Ringer's hall, tuning up for a plain quad­rille, and the whole audience adjourned to cele­brate his victory with an all night dance. And howhe did fiddle!People would come miles just to see Jim fiddleat a dance. The way he swung his bow and scrap­ed music out of the strings, the way he threw hishead and body, the way he pounded the floor asthough jumping wind into the thing, all producedan indescribable charm about his playing whichcaused the rustics gathered about in open mouthedcuriosity, to kick up their heels and whirl away inthe mazy dance before they knew it. They could­n't have a dance down there without Jim. But Jimhad one fault, he refreshed himselfafter each dance.An occasional miss in the foot beat. was the firstsymptom of intoxication. Then discords woulddrop in, his bow move slower and slower, the bodymovements increase, and finally, Jim would toppleover-dead drunk.No "fiddlin" the next day.No "farmin" the next day.No "fiIlin up" 'till the next dance.2 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.PART II.One, two, three months, and not a dance! Ev­ery body knew why. Jim had been at the bedsideof his sick mother. She had just died. People saidthey could never forget how Jim looked as he stoodalone at her coffin, his cheeks hollow, face pale,eyes sunken, his head bowed. No traces of dissi­pation upon his pale face, . but only remorse, re­morse, remorse. He knew only too well that hisunseemly conduct had hastened her death. Re­morse had hollowed his cheek, remorse had jadedhis face, remorse had bowed his head. There hestood motionless, alone by the coffin. The pro-found, sacred calm of the moment was broken bythe pawing of the hearse horses.* *Gently,-tenderly, as if afraid of disturbing hercalm sleep-he pressed the clasped hands, thenstooping, kissed her snow white forehead. A sin­gle, deep respiration, an expression of relief, aflush as of victory upon his cheek, head erect, andJim had arisen to the full stature of true manhood.The resolution had been made! James Riddle wasa changed man.PART III.Business had been powerful dull all day thatMonday, and Jim was hard pressed for a way ofentertaining the gathered rustics who were whit­tling his boxes and casting hungry looks at the rai­sin basket. So, reluctantly, he got down his oldfiddle which hadn't felt the bow since he had leftIndiana. He soon had her tuned up and going ata lively rate. At the end of the first tune, allthoughts of raisins had fled the rustics. Jim wasjust warming up for a second, when an old man,leaning heavily upon a stick, entered. He recog­nized no one and attracted no particular attention.Jim discovered at a glance that the old man wasblind, for Jim always looked a person square in theface. But now the notes were flying from thestrings like sparks from an emery wheel. Jim wasjust feeling "limbered up like," and the rustics, trueto the inspiration of the moment, were acknowledg­ing their approval by rna rking the time vigorouslywith their heels. The old, blind man even, hadcaught the infection. Unconsciously he was beat­ing time with his stick. A strange brilliancy shonein his sightless eyes. His face lit up. A smile,for on Fancy'S wing, accelerated in their flight bythe music, he has flown back to his happy youth.A young man again, with his "Nell," he is dancingaway the happy hours of their courtship. Fasterand faster thumps his stick, outstripping the ryth­mic flow of the music for now their wedding dayapproaches, they are married, and Nell is his own.A happy married life, a happy home, two beautifulchildren-fortune and honor are his. But sudden­ly his cane beats slower, the music has taken a sad turn, a tremolo striking his ear. Reverses havecome, death claims his wife and children, misfor­tune, his property. Friendless, homeless, a wan­derer, a blind beggar, thus self-consciousness re­turned. A flood-tide of reality rushed in uponhim, 'almost engulfing him. Blood rushes to hishead, his face flushes. Fancy has fled.The music had stopped.* **The old man was alone!A. G. LOZIER.The College Note Book.GARRET PHILOSOPHY.From our class-room window under the slantingroof I took a look at the world one morning. Yel­low roads, half veiled by newly-budded trees led upto broad, windowed buildings; they squatted underthe sun which poured down and oppressed them,sending off little flashes of light that hurt the eye.There were temples of art and temples of learning,great structures housing greater minds. Their colorsvied with the rainbow, but the sun blotted out theirbeauty. Then my garret picture brought garretthoughts and garret philosophy. The great sun thatsprang from the lake and scorched the temples hadits day; it fell tumbling into oblivion and the littlestars came out and half revealed the colors of thegreat temples so that they were more beautiful andnever dazzling; and people could look and enjoythem and were not afriad to learn. L. F. P.* * *JOHN FISKE.-How many times I have seen him standing onthat familiar platform, one hand resting on thereading desk, the other thrust deep into a capaci­ous pocket, swaying slowly from side to side, backand forth, as he lectured on his favorite topic, theColonial History of our Country. Of mediumheight, with an enormous girth that must have pre­cluded his lacing his own shoes for many a year,John Fiske was a man whom once to see was toremember always. His face, half hidden by alight brown beard, was always kindly, as I remem­ber it, and had a way of lighting up as he spoke,that made us forget everything else about him andjoin in his enthusiasm for his subject, till, with atwinkle in his clear blue eyes, he brought us backto earth, and closed the lecture with some rousingjoke. .T. L. M. f •[* *"TRIMMINS."It was toward dusk of a wintry day when thedoor bell rang and a bright faced, elderly lady en­tered the cheery si tting room. The group aroundthe fire widened to admit her and all looked mostexpectant for mamma had just come from a lunch­eon and was sure to have something to tell."Well, sad to say, chickies, the joke is on meUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.this time, but I'll own up. You see the thing now,is to have only soft, subdued lights at these fine af­fairs and you know my poor old eyes are giving outany way, so I really couldn't see what I was taking.Well I found that my part of each course consistedof the parsley which garnished the edge of the dish.You can imagine how hungry I gre�! At last,when I was aiming at the salad, that blessed, stiff,old Buttler bent down and whispered solemnly:"Trimmins, Mum, trimmins," and so I got a chanceto try again that time." L. C. S.* * *THE COQUETTE.She is an acknowledged beauty. When peoplespeak of her, they do not say non-chalantly, "Ohyes, pretty enough for those who like that type!"nor do they praise her eyes and expression for thesake of saying unrebuked that her. nose is ugly. No,they simply fall down and worship without dispute.She knows her position well enough, and has allthe cheerful self confidence you might expect froma goddess. Has not kindly nature armed heragainst all criticism? When you see her at a recep­tion deliberately snub a plainly dressed little wo­man and attach herself with delicate flattery to thedaughter of a leading senator, your heart rebels,but it is only for a minute-how can you resist theexquisite curve of that tinted throat. She has brok­en her engagement they say, and is so witty in des­cribing the situation, that people forget to pity theyoung man who has caused her such ennuz". Nomatter what you think, the reproach vanishes atone glance. M. C. S.* **PERCY.Percy, commonly known as "Pete," is a bright,intelligent boy, thirteen years old, with the type offace belonging to the New York politician. Hisfamily are alternately ashamed and proud of him,and treat him accordingly. His manners are verybad and he usually forgets to wash his hands untilhe is reminded of the fact at the table. He neverlooks neat like his brothers, but is kinder. He of­ten coaxes some one to talk to him, after the lightsare out and he is in bed, or rather to listen to hisplans for the future. He wonders whether' life isworth living, whether there is any heaven, and whywe were made at all. Under his apparently happydisposition there is a vein of sadness, amounting al­most to despair. After school he spends his timeriding a Shetland pony bareback, feeding his pig­eons or putting in electric bells. He is impulsive,generous and sympathetic, wholly undisciplined,but promises for the future. K. G.* *A SHOP WINDOW.The reason why we are always late to dinnerFridays, is that after the concert we stop to look atthe pictures in O'Briens, There is always some- 3thing beautiful, or interesting to be seen. A fewweeks ago, Vonnoh had a number of very fine im­pressionist pictures on exhibition. One, a portraitof a girl in old blue and rose was specially good.The week following, Ochtmann had some picturesto advertise the work done in his summer schools,and last 'week a number of the ini mi table charcoaldrawings of Leon Lhermith might be seen. Someof the best were the: Exterior of Roucn Cathedral,Washing Day at Eure, and Sheep Shearing. Lher­mith's drawing is never hard, and his work shows afine knowledge of light and shade. There were al­so some interesting oils: A Madonna and light­haired child with their stiff�halo, by Bouguereau;"The Guard of the Alhambra," by Vibert, and. adainty little scene by Lerolle. K. G.* * *THE "DARK AGES."When a professional student is temporarily obli­ged to give up books, his world takes on quite anew aspect. He turns to out-of-door activity, toconversation, to memory; it is almost a return toprimitive life. He whose eyes condemn him tolong, dark evenings, alone, is happy indeed if hecan repeat for his own amusement the songs of oth­ers; as vagrant minstrels used to do in the dim lightof feudal castles. Those who have been forced togo back into these dark ages know the value ofhaving a number of good poems, well memorized,and ready at call. They also realize, as few otherscan, what a vague, weak thing the average memoryis. How many of us, after one reading of an his­torical essay, can give a prompt and. clear synopsisof the author's plan, and a really accurate statementof the principal facts he has presented? Truly, assome one has said, our ancestors lived in an age of"muscle and memory," but we grow weak in de­pendence on the "revolver and the notebook."M. S.* * *WHEELS AND WOMEN.Woe to the man who, in the simplicity of hisheart, describes in glowing terms the pleasures ofbicycling in Chicago, if his listener happen to bean inmate of the Woman's Quadrangle. The onlycourse remaining to him is to appear the very nextday with a lady'S safety and lead the way, himselfa victim to good nature, to some quiet, secludedspot where the first lesson may be given. In otherwords, the bicycling craze is upon us, and neithertorn dresses nor bruised limbs will deter the U niv­ersity-girl from learning to ride. As one youngwoman said, yesterday, "It is perfectly glorious togo spinning along these lovely roads. I only fellthree times yesterday, once in a wood-pile, once ina gutter and once in a big mud puddle. Mr.-­says I am learning fast." If any timid spirit ob­jects to woman on the wheel let him pull up stakesnow, and move on, for at this rate, every woman inthe U. of C. will soon be riding. M.

Even at thisearly date the interest which is being manifested infoot ball is remarkably strong and bids fair to cometo a white heat with the first appearance of thegreat '94 eleven on the 'varsity field. Despite themeagre attendance this quarter of the regular un­dergraduate body,-if the students of other quartersmay be called regulars,-the spirit shown is most. encouraging. We are daily in receipt of lettersfrom absent students asking what are the prospectsfor a good team, and wishing to know what dateshave been arranged. On another page may befound the schedule of games which have thus farbeen arranged by the athletic management. Theteam which we will meet will be strong, and to wingames the University of Chicago must have aneleven which will be as far in advance of last year'steam as that aggregation was over the '92 eleven.Captain Allen seems to realize this fact, and every­thing that will tend to make it a perfectly workingbody of players will be tried by him. Alreadyabout thirty men are working daily under his di­rection, and the prospects for a strong team arebrightening with each new day. As was stated ina previous issue the majority of last year's team will be in the U ni versity this fall. There can be l i t­tle doubt of the prowess of those true and triedmembers, and we think that the fears of those whoannounce that many of the old men will not try forpositions this year are groundless. One mighttruly say with the poet (what poet was it?)-"Oncea foot ball player, always a foot ball player--untildeath." Knapp, Nichols, Gale, Lamay, Chace,N eel, A. Wyant, N att Flint and Hering of lastyear's team are almost sure to return and positionsawait nearly all of them. Of the new men, Roby,the Notre Dame rusher, Woodruff Coy, of De laSalle, and Brown, have showed the best abilitythus far. These men are all clever and show afamiliarity with the game which will be of the ut­most importance in a new team. Wyant willprobably be back at his old place in center, andKnapp can have full play in tackling. Allan, N eel, -,Nichols, Flint and Gale are the other standbys ofthe old team who will probably be wanted this.year. It is a bit early yet to make predictions asto the succes�s. or failure of the University to wingames, and we will venture none. We can restassured, however, that a team made up of steady,reliable and conscientious players, with a cleverleader and coach will represent the U niversi ty inmany a grand battie.ONE WHO is well known in student circles. and qualified to judge, writes the WEEKLYon the question of the attitude of the U ni­versity toward athletics. The" Student" takes theposition of a critic, and his remarks are pertinentand worthy of the attention of every member of theUniversity. His communication appears to us soapt and it has come at such an opportune moment,when more or less- interest in athletics is beingshown by all, that we publish it in our editorialcolumns, hoping that the suggestions that he makeswill be adopted. If this were done, the conditionof athletics at the University of Chicago would befar more healthy, and our students would be lessdilatory in coming to the assistance of the athleticmanagers once an example were set by the U nivers­ity authorities. The "Student" writes as follows:To the Editor:U ni versity of Chicago athletes and friends of theathletic interests here asks themselves the question,"What will the U niversi ty do to stimulate the ath­letic spirit?" If the "powers that be" do as muchas has been done in the past to encourage thosewho work hard to bring glory to the institutionUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.they represent, it is safe to assume that it will notbe long before athletics will De below par in ourU niversi ty, good men at the head of the depart­ment notwithstanding. It is an open secret amongthose who have looked into the matter, that thesupport the head of the Athletic Department hasreceived from those who are supposed to wieldpower and influence has been but little.It is true we have a 'gymnasium and athleticgrounds, and it is also true that the Universityequipped the gymnasium as well as could be ex­pected. But here a halt was made, and to ourknowledge no start has yet been attempted. Theathletic field was laid out almost entirely by privatesubscriptions, and the cost of what has been donesince in way of improvements has been borne mostlyby one man alone. There is no doubt whatever inour mind but that we might put the best teams inthe field, of any in the West, but to do so the menwho do the work must have at least some show ofsupport from the institution they represent. Thelack of support both moral and material has beenshown this summer as well as last spring. The on­lookers at our sports have been mostly outsiders,with a sprinkling of freshmans and a fair "co-Ed."or two, who have braved the journey through thejungles of burdocks and other exotics of like nature.The magnificent grand stand that adorned thegrounds during the Chicago-Michigan contest lastfall has mostly been used in patching up the fenceor carried away as souvenirs, being one of the firstthings of the new university.But, to be serious, the writer would suggest thatthe University should make up for its past short­comings by appropriating a sum sufficient at leastfor building a grand stand and putting the field indecent order for the coming season. Efforts shouldalso be made to enlarge the present grounds which,no doubt, could be accompli-shed. In short, let theUniversity authorities join hands with those whohave already done so much for their Alma Materand we are sure they will find themselves well re-paid. STUDENT.Win Out Friday.Brown pitched in Friday's game against theJackson' Parks. Frederickson the pitcher for Illinoisthis season. was in the box for the Jackson Park peo­ple. The score was 8 to 7. We won. The con­test was an even one and interesting from start tofinish. Both pitchers threw fairly deceptive curvesand kept the hits well scattered. Nichols is bat­ting in his old style and caught a fine game. Fornearly the entire seven innings the Jackson's keptthe lead and it looked as though they would hold itto the end. In the last half of the ninth howevergood batting and clever base running with a dash of 5mustard in the shape of a poor play by the visitors,netted the University three runs, just enough towin the game.

The Western Electrics,old antagonists in name only, were out in force toget even for sundry defeats administered a year ago.Parker who was expected to pitch was not in formand did not play. Kelly who took. his place wastouched up in lively style during the early part ofthe game but toward the end he steadied down andwas hit but little. Stagg went in the box with abad leg and his pitching, taking his injury into con­sideration, was most effective. Adkinson played astrong game at second as did Prendeville of theElectrics. The loss of the game was not keenly fel tby the spectators but that it should be thrown awayalmost in the last inning was a bit disappointing.The score:w. ELEC.· R: BH. ro. A. E.] UNIV. OF CHI.

But I ne­ver glare fiercely, clench my fist and say as doesthe villain in the play, "You lie," but very gentlybring up a few arguments and point blank ques­tions, and at the end of this soliloquy say fervently,"I am glad we have but one life to live and thatthere are no fountains of perpetual youth such asPonce de Leon hoped to find, and that Faust wasimaginary." I never could understand Mr. Faustanyway.If life could be divided into periods as are Lit­erature and History, one would certainly have to becalled the "Dark Ages" or the "Clearing up Per­iod." It would differ in time and duration in diff­erent children. The precocious youngster of theworld, infant prodigies, probably never know of thistime, but common little boys and girls without anybig bumps on their crani urns can never escape it.But there is a sadness about this period when allour mixed up, twisted ideas are straightened out bylife's truths, or stern realities.But 1 did not mean to be prosy. I purposesimply to relate the history of the "Dark Age'" ofone little maid. Perhaps the little maid was myselfyears and years ago, perhaps some little maid thatI knew and loved, but no matter. For conveniencesake I shall call her the "Queer Person." TheQueer Person lived in the country. All queer peo­ple do, or at least they never come up to the U niv­ersity, and this q. p. never had the advantage of aUniversity education to clear away the doubts andsophistries which assailed her. But on with thetale of our Queer Person's life.On the Queer Person's first visit to a great city, one very erroneous idea was set aright in her child­ish mind. She rode eight times on an elevator be­fore she could be made to believe that she was noton the back of an alligator. I can't explain howshe ever got the idea, but it was very deep rootedand she even converted her youthful brother to thebelief. What disappointed small people they wereon learning the truth.Turnpike! Oh, how that word would make hershiver. I am certain that if her parents and friendshad known of this belief, "turnpike" might havebeen a very successful "bug-a-boo" on trying oc­casions when the Queer Person was unusually naugh­ty. But turnpike meant to the Queer Person a cowtied to a fence by a long rope, a cow wi th a veryvici ous temper that could overturn several carriagesat once and hook the occupants of said carriages.And every time that the papa and mamma of theQueer Person would go to ride, she prayed thatthere might be no turnpikes on their' way. A boxat the opera meant to her a sweet little house allcurtained and a whole suite of rooms. The hallwould have to be of immense proportions to holdeven two or three of the Queer Person's "boxes."Like Simple Simon she believed perfectly that birdscould be tamed by putting salt on their tails. Butsomehow she couldn't get the salt on, althoughmany hot summer days had been devoted entirelyto this occupation. Every child believes in SantaClaus, but the Queer Person had more than hershare of this belief, and I am very sorry to say thatshe deceived kind parents and friends all one longChristmas day by making believe that she had notgraduated in this childish idea. But conscience tor­tured her severely, and she confessed at night herdeceit, and for a penance resolved not to tell heryouthful brother who the real Santa was."Why do you have to go down town everyday?"the Queer Person asked her papa. "To get youbread and butter," was the answer. And this silly -,little girl took this literally and each day wonderedif it was Mrs. Brown's, Mrs. Smith's or Mrs. Jones'"staff of life" that she was eating. Lilliput landwas very real to her as' was the fib belief, namely,little fibs made white and big fibs very black markson her tongue. When she was six, children of tenseemed very wise in her childish eyes, and, as thelaws of progression demanded, when she reachedthe tenth milestone the sixteen year olds had theworldly wisdom of a Socrates (if she knew who hewas), but she really never outgrows this idea oflooking up to her elders as paragons ot wisdom.Her whole life was happy as a summer's day. Toher mind everyone was sweet and good and true;Ii fe was full of all good things and "things were allthey seemed." She has not yet begun to believelife an "empty dream," although many years havebeen added to the "'Dark Age." God grant that.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.she never may, and that she may still remain in thisrespect, the "Queer Person." M. G.
