TELEPHONE NOTES.

"A new switch board has been put up
at the Exchange. large enough to &C
commodate fifty subscribers, and It's a
beauty.
As soon as the Instruments can be
obtained and put up, twenty-eight SUBJ
scribers will be in connection with the
Exchange.
The subscribers had splendid sere-
made from Messrs. Wicks G Eckford's
office, over the telephone wires on Satur-
day evening. The music was by an
Italian string band.
"A friend at our side, speaking Of the
wonderful feats of the Lego and Morse
systems of telegraph, the telephone, and
the electric light, remarked that he was
SO anxious to live hundred years longer
to see the improvements that must yet
follow, that he hardly knew what to do
about it. Shouldn't wonder.
"A most delightful serenade was given
to the telephone subscribers on Saturday
night, by Messrs. E. W. and F. W.
Saunders, on cornet and tuba, Mayor w.
E. Love, on flute, W. H. Kidd, on flute
and guitar, and Mr.. Will. Henley on
guitar. Communication was opened on
all the circuit and the music highly ap,
preciated by every one.
Mr.. Carter says he is perfectly oonf>
dent of having all the telephone instru-
ments engaged, ready for service by
Saturday night. There is such great
demand for the instruments and only
three factories in the United States
manufacturing them, that it is quite
difficult to have orders filled promptly.
One Of the most wonderful feats per,
formed by the telephone was over the
Western Union Telegraph Company's
lines few days since when conversation
was carried on between president W. b.
Strong, of the Atchison Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad in Boston and General
Manager g. G. Wheeler in Guaymas:
The distance was $500 miles. One was
on the shore of the Atlantic, the other
on the shore of California, which min>
giles with the waters Of the Pacific. The
route Of the message was from Boston to
Chicago, Kansas City, Pueblo and the
old city of Santa Fe, and thence on to
Benson, in Arizona Territory across old
Mexico through Sonora and finally to
Guaymias. The occasion was the com
pletion of the railroad when the last
spike silver one, was driven into ma
hogany tie. Arrangements had been
duly made by telegraph, the telephones
were attached to the wires, and when all
was in readiness the signal was given
and the conversation began. The mana
gers of the longest continuous line of
railroad in the world talked with each
other and exchanged congratulations for
the period of five hours. The converse .,
lions were heard in feeble tone but yet
they were very distinct and no wonder.
The idea of transmitting the sounds Of
the human voice $500 miles is more
than marvelous-without an actual de-
monstration it is simply incredible. -

SOMETHING IN TIE BED

Judge Pitman has a habit of slip~
ping his watch under his pillow when
he goes tc bed. One night somehow
it slipped down,and as the Judge was
restless, it worked its way down to-
ward the foot of the bed. After a
bit,while he was lying awake, his foot
touched it; it felt very cold; he was
surprised, scared and jumping from
the bed, he said:
"My gracious Maria, there's a toad
or something under the covers l
touched it with my foot
Mrs. Pitman gave loud scream.
and was on the floor in an instant.
"Now don't go hollering and wake
mp the neighbordhood,' said the
Judge.
"You get n broom or something.
and we'll fix the thing mighty quick "
Mrs. Pitman got tho broom gave it
to the Judge with the remark that Size
felt as though snakes were creeping
up and down her back.
"Oh, nonsense, Marie! Now, turn
down the covers slowly while l hold
the broom and bang it. Put buck
ct of water alongside of the bed SO
that we can shove it in and drown
it,
Mrs. Pitman fixed the bucket and
and gently removed the covers. The

YEAR BY YEAR.

For the Examiner
Year by year we are growing older,
In vain for joys we seek;
For time is placing on our shoulder
Burdens to make us weak.
Year by year the sweet affection
OF some one we have cherished
Year by year its recollection
More and more is persisted.
Yes, year by year we are more forgotten
By friends we thought We're true
Year by year life is becoming
More and more obscure.
Year by year we are drawing nearer
To rest for the weary soul
Year by year death is deNrcr
To those who are feebly old.

thoroughly repaired and the hall is
superior to the one occupied by the
city government during several years
past. The City Hall, and Engine
House in which the two fire engines

The Memphis. Selma and Bruins
wick Railroad.
While at Iuka. Mississippi, last weel

While at Iuka, Mississippi, last week,
on professional business, Hon. L. L.
Houston, of this city, had occasion to
interview Hon. r. II. Allen, of the firm
of Hamilton, Allen & Co., lessees of the
State penitentiary, and elected from
him information to the effect that the
section of the Memphis, Selma and
Brunswick road now in course of con-
struction between Memphis and Holly
Springs will be completed by the first
Of March /; and that Immediately there.
after the contractors will move their
forces to Holly Springs and commence
work from that point southeastward.
There is a gap between Aberdeen and
Holly Springs of seventy miles to be
graded, and Col. Allen is confident of
having it completed by the first of next
December. The grading on that line
was completed through Monroe county
several years ago, SO thai when Okolona
is reached there will be but light work
from that point to this city.

All the Fire Companies Of the.city-Ab

Company No 2, and Monroe No. D.
were at the reservoir at the crossing Of
Commerce and Maple Streets on Friday
evening for drill and parade, and pre-
sented quite an interesting spectacle.
Although it was the first appearance and
drill of the Hook and Ladder "boys, j
all were pleased at the facility with
which the ladders were placed in poslN
ton affording access to the roof of an adj
joining building, ..and also with. the
bucket drill. The steam and hand en-
gine companies executed their usual
programme, only in perhaps a little
better style.
At tho conclusion of the drill the
companies were formed in hollow
square, when Foreman II. E. Houston,
of No. 3, in behalf of the citizens of ABB
erdeen, in brief and suitable language
presented an elegant silver plated speak
ing trumpet to James Baldwin, Foreman
of No. l. The colored firemen apprecia>

remarks highly appropriate to the occa-
sion, pledging his company for prompt
and cheerful labor whenevev emergen.

Messrs. d. Ii. Gresham and j. W.

last week from John G. Mann, ChieI
Engineer of Southern division of the
Illinois Central, instructing them tc
prepare work for force of hands to ar
rive in the city on Thursday or Friday OF

will begin inside the corporation lines,

all reports on the subject no enterprise
ever progressed moro favorably and with
more satisfaction to all concerned than
the construction of this line since opera
tions were first begun.

The defaulting State Treasurer of
Tennessee, MARSH 7. POLK, is remem>
bered by many of our people as
Provost Marshal in Aberdeen in 1864
He is said to have been man of very
"rowdy" character, and his elevation
to the position in which he played
his bold and robbing game was due
more to the influence of friends and
the family name than to personal
worth and merit, He was captured,
the second time, by a United States
Marshal IS miles this side of the
Rio Grande river and will doubtless
serve many years in the striped suits
in which the Tennessee convicts are
