ALARMED.-At certain Office in this city
there is a mad watchman who swears at what
he calls the new-fangled inventions known as
alarm clocks. He is good, faithful watch
man, but his duties are somewhat irksome,
and IN the stlll hours VI aAsbAuS bS
the stove, his mind and body naturally settle
into that quiet repose from which it is exceed

the Office recently hit upon plan for having
some fun at the expense OF the Waterman.
That evening each of them returned to the
Office with one of the small brass disturbers OF

and locked up in the drawers of the SIX desks
along the wall. They were so arranged
that the first should begin the racket about
o'clock in the morning, and the others to
chime in at intervals of a half hour each. At
the appointed time, as the Waterman was
resting his feet upon the stove-half DOING
half listening for suspicious notes.-the here
totore noiseless little instrument in one OF the
drawers fairly turned itself loose with noise
resembling the ringing of half dozen door
bells mingled with the roar of steam engine.
The startled Waterman sprang to his feet and
rushed to the windows, but, gazing out, could

cause not understood. When No. began
there was new cause for wonder, as the noise
had changed from one desk to another. The
matter new became too perplexing for rest or
to be let alone, and No. 4 and No. were
