Cabling WOrkmen.

One of the greatest annoyances to a
dustrious workman who wishes to perform
his whole duty, is the habit of Cabling
INDUCED in by those fellows who insist
upon talking of current events, and often
the worlds entire history, during the hours
which should be devoted exclusively to
business. In no workshop is this practice
so deleterious as in printing Office, for
in no other is there so close and undivided
attention required to produce the best
results. No man can set type
with proper care while his mind is
occupied with consideration of other af-
fairs, especially if that consideration is
enforced upon him by the audible CONVEX
sation of some one near him. A printer
must think while he works, and he must
think of the task before him. He must de-
cipher his copy and give thought to its
punctuation and even to the construction
of the sentences, and this he cannot do
while his attention is diverted to some
thing entirely foreign to it. He can think
of but one thing at time; and if he is
talking of politics, religion or social ills,
he will of necessity, neglect the work
placed before him.
The practice of promiscuous talking in
a workshop is, moreover, dishonest
one. The employer pays the EN-,
ploye forthe work he is expected an6
supposed to perform; and the time
paid for, belongs to him, and if it is occu-
pied with idle gossip, he is defrauded Of
| that which is his due. A few moments
conversation between two compositor:
may seem small matter; but when it in
cludes, as it generally does, several men
at frequent intervals, it becomes quite 6
serious affair, resulting in absolute loss to
the master workmen. "Many nickle
makes muckle;" and fifteen minutes E
day makes an hour and half during the
week.
1t is a homely saying, 'the still SOW
drinks the swill;" and among compositor;
| it will be noticed that those who do the
least talking will, other things being equal
set more type and do it better than theil
garrulous neighbors. whose tongues are
continually running.
We are not advocating military rule il
| the printing Office. There is no harm il
an occasional pleasant joke or snatch Of
| a popular song; these rather relieve the
irksomeness of continuous toll. But the
privilege of indulgence in these should
never be abused to the detriment of either
the customer or EMPLOYER,

nation is conveyed that they propose to

Didn't Know .Tt Was Loaded.

A negro boy at Jessup, Ga, the other
day put toy pistol at the back of his sis
ter's head and pulled the trigger. The
bullet passed through the girls neck and
she is not expected to survive. He didn't
know it was loaded.
David Taylor, lad whose home was in
Issaquena county, Miss, while examining
his gun one day last week rested his foot
on the hammer and looked in at the muz-
zle. His head was blown off. He didn't
know it was loaded.
Matthew Anger picked up an old gun at
Plaquemine, La, on the 14th inst, and
laughingly pointed the weapon at negro
boy. A charge of shot went flying through
Anger, who surrendered himself to the au-
thorities. He didn't know it was loaded.
''The other day." says the Nevada, CAL,
Transcript, "a Grass Valley boy named
Wilson picked up gun and after examin-
alton concluded it was not loaded. He
pointed it at boy named Van Orden and
it went of, the charge just missing the
latter's head. There should be law for
the suppression of people who don't know
how to handle an 'unloaded' gum He
didn't know it was loaded.

Miss Dvorak, in Baltimore, last week. In
play he drew from his hip pocket seven

Baran then pointed the revolver at his
left breast and pulled again. The ball
lodged somewhere inside the ribs. He
didn't know it was loaded.
Gottleib Beck, an employe in the bakery
of George Kober, in New Haven, was shot
few days ago by William Rabanus,
boarder with Kober. Rabanus was going
out shooting and on locking at his pistol
found she'll in the barrel. He pulled the
trigger to see if it would explode, and as it
did not concluded it had been fred before.
He went down stairs where Beck was sift-
ing -four. Rabanus pointed the pistol in
sport at Beck, saying: "Your money or
your life" Beck dropped the sieve, pre-
tending to search his pockets and said he
had but few cents. Rabanus pulled the
trigger and the cartridge exploded. Ra.

Suit for Orerdue Coupons.

LITTLE ROCK, Jan. 29.-Complaint was
filed to-day in the United States court
against the Little Rock, Pine Bluff & New
Orleans and Mississippi, Ouachita & Red
River railroads, afterwards consolidated
and known as the Little Rock, Mississippi
River & Texas railways, to compel pay
ment of overdue coupons on bonds issued
by the state to aid in their construction.
In 1870 the state issued to the Little Rock,
Pine Bluff & New Orleans road $1,200,000,
and to the Mississippi,EO uachita & Red
River road 100000 Z per
cent. thirty-year bonds, to aid
in the construction of the roads, agreeing
to pay the interest as falling due and the
principal at maturity. No interest has
been paid since 1873, the roads holding
and the Arkansas supreme court sustaining
the point that the bonds were issued con-
trary to law. This question was decided
in the United States court recently adverse
to the roads in similar case against the
Little Rock 81 Fort Smith road. The court
holds. that the roads were liable for the
bonds, Notwithstanding they may not have
been issued in strict accordance with law.
The bonds form part of the disputed
bonded debt of Arkansas.
