A Rat I'm the Telegraph Service.

A telegraph inspector recently pressed in
to his service rat under the following pc
culiar circumstances. II was necessary to
overhaul a cable of wires inclosed In iron
tubes. A certain length of the cable had to
be taken out of the tube, and the men com.
menced hfuling Mt one end without having
taken the precaution to attach to the other a
wire by which it might be drawn back into
the tube after inspection and repairs. The
question arose how the cable was TO be re-
stored to its proper place, and here the in
genuity of the inspector was manifested. He
invoked the a:d Of a rat-catcher. and, pro-
vided with large rat, ferret, and ball OF
twine wound round on a Morse paper drum,
he repaired to the opening in the tube. The
''flush boxes" were opened and the rat. with
one end of the string attached to his body,
was put into the pipe. He scampered away
at racing pace. dragging the twine with
him until he reached the middle Of the length
of pipe. and there stopped The ferret
was then put in. and Of went the
rat again until he sprang out Of the
next flushb One length Of the cable was
thus safe, and the same operation was COM
menced with the other; but the rat stopped
short a few yards in the pipe, and boldly
awaited the approach Of the ferret. A short
combat here commenced. and 1t was feared
that one OF both of the animals would die in
the pipe. But after sundrv violent jerks had
been given to the string, the combstants sep
arated. The ferret returned to his master ;
and the rat making for the other extremely
of the pipe, carried the string right through
and so relieved the inspector from his aoxie-

had been COS eases, of which 231, or about

LATER.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 1G.-There
is considerable evidence to show that
road, last evening, was done by the
notorious James Garry, and it may
prove that one or both of the James
boys were present with the gang. The
horses used by the robbers were fine
thoroughbred animals, in the best Of
condition for the work in hand. The
horses were hitched TO u fence about
so yards from Winston station, where
the following letter was found:
KANSAS CITY, July II, 1881.
CHARLIE-I got your letter to-day,
and was glad to hear that you had got
everything ready in time for the fif-
t, enth. We will be ON hand ut that
time. Bill will be with ms. We will
all be on the train. Don't fear We
will be in the smoker at Winston.
Have the horses and boys in Il good fix
for fast work. We will make this
point again OH the night of the six
teeDth. All is right here. Frank
will meet us at Cameron Park. Look
sharp and be well fixed. Have the
horses well mounted, as we may have
some running to do. Don't get excit-
ed, but keep cool till the right time.
Wilcox or Walcott will be on the en-
gine. | think it best to send this 10
Kidder. Yours through time and
through death. STICK.
The letter was found in the under.
brush, and bears evidence of having
been carried some days in the pocket.
The people of Winston and vicinity,
who know the James boys and most
of the comrades they have had in the
past, say they have no doubt of their
being connected with this crime; but
it has been the custom of the people of
Missouri to attribute every daring
piece of outlaw to the James boys, and
time alone will tell whether or not the
present suspicious are founded ON
good grounds.
The officers of the United States
Express Company refuse to name the
amount r. money taken from the safe,
but say tnat they think $4,000 is too
high IA figure.
