GUESSING MAmUNE.

While General Malone was President
of the East tennessee road one of the
engineers had q fireman put on with
him that he did not like, 90 he resolved
70 get rid Of him. One day, Just after
the 6rst trip. the fireman and the enei
neer were discussing General Malone
and the fireman remarked that he fell
like giving the General good cuss
ing"
why don't you do it, them" asked
the engineer.
"Yss. and get fred" sententiously said
the fireman.
" Not much." replied the engineer
T" You can never get along on this road
until y0u cuss Malone. l GUESSED him
out and DOT for every dafned thing that
has happened since he was in charge
and have g0t along all right"
The fireman concluded be would de-
the same thing. So, on the next trip u
Richmond he went to Mahone's ofics
and heapel on him such q torrent OF
abuse that it nearly took his breath
away.
Malone heard him through and Their
told the fireman TO como and get hi
money after the next trip.
There seemed TO be q hitch some
where. Things seemed to be different
what he expected, % he vent to consult
his friend, the engineer.
"You darn fool" cried the latter
you didn't cuss him TO his face, die
your
"Of course ! did" said the fireman
Didn't you tell me that you did the
same thing?"
No, mot BY Q blamed sight. Why
when ousssd Malone he was in Rich.
mond and was in Bristol. and gave
him good guessing, too"
Well, the fireman got bounced and
the engineer vas made suddenly and
strangely happy.

Ii there is an industry of especiaI cop-
sequence which il not prosecnted in a.
great enterprisine State of Maine. Il IL
yes 20 De heard from. In the matter of
Ieaoy made houses the dovn-Easters
a.e abreast With the tinses. The Ken
neoec Framing Company Is the name
" corporation in this line OF business,
az Fairfield, which Is called the largest
IA existence, bot pride may have GOT
the better of Judgment in this estimate
OF size. Regarding the enterprise,
the Bangor hini.g and Indstr,ai Jour
nal has the following:
dwelling hsuses are made like boots
and shoes-in anv quantity or of any
slze or style, and for any market in the
VIDE world. Not long since this firm
received single order for fifty houses
Tor Cape Nay, to be delivered speedily
and In complete finish. These houses
were not TO he mere shanties, bat regu-
larry ordered dwellings,, and they were
made accordingly. and so delivered.
and contain hundreds of occupants al
this moment. An order will be re-
ceived for $4,000 hotel, or an ornate
French roof cottage for a fine country
estate, and these are as easily and ex-
peditiously furnis ed a. an ordinary
boarding house for a country village or
a barn for ranch in Kansas or Col
orado. IL Is not to be supposed that
only coarse. rough frame is thus sent
out, to be trimmed into shape on the
spot where it is delivered. On the con-
trary, the house is complete when ii
leaves the factory, and as ready to 90
together as is mosket when it leaves
the armory in SprinRfield: all the parts
being found, even to the knobs for the
doors, and the screens and shades for
the doors and windows, according to
specifications. Great trains of freight
cars stand waiting, and are freiphted
almost daily here. The refuse trim
minRs and edge cuttings of the lumber
are carted of to a neighborine pulp
MILL, and there speedily turned into ma
terIai for paper, or other products, Ma
ohinery for almost every conceivable
use in connection with wood is at hand.
and house materials, of any kind, or
size, or shape, seem to drop ont like
meal from hopper. In a recent in
stance, where large building was fur
nished for Southern order, the parts
were thus made, and whom put
together in the city where the
building Is now staining its
length Was found to vary not the eighth
OF an inch from the original specifca-
tons. although its length ON the front
numbered hundreds of feet Every
inch OF this building. from the sill to
the last shingle. was sent ready pre-
pared from the factory, and set up an
readily and almost as quickly as nail
oask."

The visitor to the petrifed forest
near COrizO. on the Little Colorado, will
begin TO see signs of pstrifaction hours
before he reaches the wender; here and
there at almost every step in the road
small pieces of detached limbs and
larger stumps of trees may be seen al
most hidden in the white sand. The
road at a distance of ten miles from
Corizo enters An immense basin, the
slope being nearly semicircle, and
this enclosed by high banks Uf shale
and fine white clay. The petrified
stumps, limbs and, in fact, whole trees
lie about on all sides, the action of the
waters fer hundreds Of years have grad.
ually washed away the high hills round
about, and the trees that once covered
the nigh table lands now lie in the val
ley beneath. Immense trunks, some
of which will measure over five
ieet IN diameter, are bro
ken, and scittered over a sur
face of 800 acres. Limbs and twies
cover the sand in every direction, and
the visitor il puzzled as to where he
shall begin to gather the beautiful spe-
cimons that lie within easy reach. There
are numerous blocks or trunks of this
petrified wood, that have the appearance,
for all the world, of having Just been
cut down by the woodlands axe, and
the chips are thrown around ON the
ground 80 that one instinctiveiy picks
them up AZ he would in the logging
camps Of Michigan and Pennsylvania
Many of the small particles aud even
the whole heart of some trees have now
become thoroughly crystalized, and the
beautiful colOred cubes sparkle in the
sunshine like SO many diamonds. Every
color of the rainbow is duplicated in
these crystals, and those of an amethyst
color would pass the eye Of novice fol
the real stone. The grain Of the wood
Is plainly shown in nearly every speci.
men, making the pieces more beautiful
than ever.
