The First Child.

A Montana correspondent says:-In g little cabin far up the guich the first white child in Montana was born. The girl-wife had followed her lover from the States, and, braving every hards hip for his sake, had at last found him. When the baby came the gulch went on a weeks spree. Gold in handfuls was thrown by the rough miners into the little one's cradle until it was almost smothered under the yellow nuggets. One poor fellow wanted to hear 1t cry, and when the baby piped up the miner Wept, saying he had not heard 8 sound like that for years. How the rough, b1g-bearded men crowded around that little child, one asking if he might lift 1t, and third the privilege of seeing 1t fed out of bottle.
 When 1t was sick, business in the gulch was almost entirely suspended and nobody could think of doing any. thing until " the baby" was better. These were the good old days of eulch mining ill Montana, when flour was one dollar pound, sugar and coffee seventy five cents, dried apples ten dollars a gallon, brooms five dollars apiece, tacks seventy-five cents paper, calico one dollar per yard, and when 8 miner could take out sixteen dollars per day with 8 chance of rich nugget turning up twice week.

A Novel Will.

The will of the late State Senator George F. Baker, of California, is, to say the least, peculiar document. It has been filed in San Jose, and is as follows:
 hope and expect that out of respect to my fathers memory my mother will never marry. Should she do so, the sums I have bequeathed to her must be paid to her free and independent of any husband she may hereafter have. Know ing the difficulties attending the efforts of women to gain livelihood in the world, it is my desire to provide for her, my said sister Lulu, beyond any perad- venture, the comforts of life, and, know ing the tyrannical and unnanly conduct of many husbands toward their wives, I desire that said moneys shall be abso- lutely free in my sisters hands. Should my sister be at any time so unfortunate as to have 8 husband addicted to gam bling, intoxicating liquors or other vice, or be of lazy or spendthrift habits, then direct that my executors, or the court having control of my estate, shall per sonally and directly expend such money, in paying the living expenses of my sister Lulu, and the maintenance and education of any children she may have. I trust that no such necessity may arise, but unforeseen calamities overtake the best of wives who are so unfortunate as to be welded to depraved and unmanly men who forget their VOWS and theil duty, becoming monsters and brntes when they should be companions and

conductor and one he fl in his office. The conductor reads oud the message to the operator to see if it is under stood. Then he takes copy to the en- gineer and asks the engineer to read it, and state what he thinks 1t means. If the conductor and engineer do not agree upon the meaning, they must at once telegraph to the train dispatcher for more explicit instructions. In short, the train can't move until operator, conductor and engineer are perfectly agreed upon all orders received. Engi- ineers are always authorized to refuse to obey a conductor when they think it dangerous to do so. On well-managed road 1t may be said that all train regu. 'lation is conducted with equal care. All of this may cause delay, and is sure to enrage the passengers, but it is for their own immediate good, and If they knew the circumstances they would be more anxious to have everything correct than the train men are. 1 ~ ID oOmAAoAAJ SuPPoSou UAnb SpocAssa trains have the right of way over nearly all others, but this is very rarely the case. On great occasions 8 special time table is prepared for the extra train, and then the others give way to it. For instance, once year the d. rectors of the Pennsylvania Railroad come West over all their lines to Chi cago and St. Louis. Months beforehand 8 special time table is made out for them. If, however, at any time they fall behind in the time of their own special schedule, they at once pass into the hands of the train dispatcher, the same as any other train.
 Enough has been said to show the importance of the office of train dis patcher to great railroad. It is one of the most particular jobs in the world. Railroad men always spell it with big T and big D.

Finding Her Place.

An aged lady who had buried three husbands during her lifetime finally died at South Granville, and her last request was that her mortal remains might repose beside those of her first husband. An investigation showed that No. 1, who had been twice married, was peacefully resting between his two wives, whereupon resort was had to No. 2. singularly enough, his dust was found to occupy a precisely similar position. Only one chance now re- mained, and it was with some uneasiness ths mourners visited the grave of No. 8. But the last of the trio had been more considerate. Upon his right lay his first wife, but upon hls left was g vacant space, and there 8 mound was quickly raised above the earthly taber' nacle of his second and last consort.

Not the Fashion.

German undertakers do not exhibit their wares, as is the custom in Ameri- ca. Cofins are made by them to order when wanted. This custom prevails throughout the European Continent; it is only in the large cities that any stock of the commodity is kept on hand, and then in an unobtrusive fashion. A few years ago an enterprising under taker in Basel, Switzerland, started business in the American style and put @ couple of small coffins in his window. Crowds gathered to stare at the un- wonted sight, and before the end of the week the police gave notice to the shop keeper that s'the unseemly exhibition'' must cease.

LOUD.VOlCED TELEPHONES.
A New Discovery that Astonishea
 the Electricians Themselves.

An improvement has been made in the telephone by which the full tones of the human voice may be transmitted.
 Mr. O. B. Chinook, the electrician of the Metropolitan Telephone Com. pany of New York City, said recently: "Two weeks ago I went to Boston to consult with the Bell Telephone Com pany, from which all other telephone companies in the country obtain their rights. While there was invited into the office of MT. Jacques, the electrician of the company. MT. Jacques said he had something to show me that would perhaps surprise me. He gave me seat in his private room. About twenty feet away from me was an ordinary looking tele- phone, just like those in use all over this city. A moment after MT. Jacques had closed the door heard the voice of an unseen person say, in ordinary conversational tone Good morn- ing MT. Chinook, how do you like BostonP' I looked around in amaze- ment, and said to MT. Jacques Have you got speaking tube hereP' No, that is the telephone said the electri- cian. At first I thought it was some practical joke they were playing on me, but after little ex- planation, I was convinced that it was the result of wonderful discovery in electrical science. By using the car- bon in @ pulverized form instead of in the shape of hard button, and by using current four times as strong as before, the telephone is made to give forth as loud and articulate sounds as those of the human voice. believe there Is no doubt that, after this i'm provement has been put into general use. the call bell now attached to all the telephones can be dispensed with, be- cause the voice from the telephone can be heard by any one near enough to hear the bell. While was still in the room o voice came from the telephone calling for Miss Taylor lady en- ployed in an adjoining room some forty feet away from the instrument; and yet Miss Taylor at once left her desh and went to answer the call."
 Mir. Chinook says that when tho voice comes from a long distance, ai from New York or Philadelphia, it is necessary to speak loudly, but it is not necessary to shout.
 Mir. Davis, the Vice President of tho Metropolitan Telephone Company, sait that the new invention would probabl. not affect telephoning at short distances The present instrument for short dis tances, he thought, was now about & near perfection as could be. The onl, thing needed was wire that would no pick up the outside noises which a present sometimes interfere with eas., conversation. The new telephone woul' be used for talking between distan cities, as Boston, Philadelphia. Chicago New Orleans and possibly San Francis co.-M Y. San.
