SPELGING MATCH IN CLEVELAND.

SPELLING MATCH IN CLEVELAND.
The Clevelanders have had a great
deal of fun recently out of spelling
matches. A reporter Of the Herald
has stood the longest on two occasions.
Wednesday evening the reporter and Il
lady stood alone, all the rest over
thrown, when the lady missed isosceles.
The falling of the reporter, who was
the last survivor, Is thus described by
himself:
"Now,' said MIR. james, Il have 4
few words for .you to tackle as his
eyes gloated ov,r some orthographical
conglomerations that were not even
printed in his blue book but which
he had dug out of dictionaries and
medical works and with which he had
frescoed in pencil the margin of his
book. 'COlocynth,' exclaimed he, with
a triumphant spelI-it-if-you-can air.
and if you want to know what it
means, it's a medicine for the babies
The luckless chap scratched his pate for
q moment, thinking the word was
enough to kill any baby in christendom,
to say nothing Of the medicine. made
Que wild effort to spell it-and then his
corpse was added to the pile of the
slain.
"Some Of the blunders in spelling
were OF course laughab,e and excited
much merriment, though doubtless
many of those who laughed would them
selves have made even worse mistakes.
At one time Mr.. James gave to the Her.
AID the word pronounced 'lock,' giving
also the definition-a lake. 'L-o-u-g-h
-lock aud there was a general-laugh
at the stupidity Of spelling lock il
such an absurd way. The pencil singer
stood ssrenely confident, while the
spectators waited to hear Next :. from
the master of ceremonies. But when
the noise mad abated and MI. james,
who was standing Oh a chair, said, with
q wave of the hand, me is entirely cor-
rect " the newspaper man hadthe laugh
on his side and the room resounded
with applause"

PRECiCTIONIRT MEASURES.

The various express companies, hav.
ing in view Il further increased security
for their messengers and the valuables
intrusted to their care, have submitted
the following suggestions and guards
to the various railroad managers in the
country: That both the end doors Of
all baggage and express-cars be per-
manently closed /; or, if there arc seri-
ous objections to this. then that the e1-
press companies be allowed to furnish
and have put on by the mechanics of
the road villa. is known as a "chain
door-fastener," and when that is done.
that peremptory orders he issued to the
baggage and expressmen requiring the
fastener to be kept il constant Use NJ
all hours, day and night; posting the
order in one or more places ill zach ear,
and forbidding those men to allJw any
peIsoIs-strangers, or Others not con-
nected with the train-to enter the cars
any purpose whatever, particularly
after dark. These precautions seem to
be n necessity to protec: the express
companies against tie repeated acts of
desperad0es, who enter the baggage
and express-cars in force by the end
doors when the train is in motion. at
lacking baggage and express-messen-
gers, overcoming, securing, and gag
ging them, rohbing the safes, and, by
checking the train, escaping without
detection.
