of the weather bulletins here. The new
operators do not understand the cyphers
and make numerous bulls in spelling the
words. In these cyphers whole sentence
is indicated by single word of one sylla-
bic, and the mis-spelhug OF that word often
produces great confusion and mystifcation.
The reports are also much delayed and fire.
quently Sergeant Ray must telegraph back
several times to get the correct word.

Springfield Journal four and half columns
of explanations" telling about the manner
IN which the subordnates Numbered and
induced him to blunder, and INDUCING in

more will be sunk above and below this
point, so that the work will probably con-
tinue another week.

road near the round house yesterday fore
noon, was struck on top Of the head by an
axe that fell from the trestle, and seriously
wounded. He was hurried down to DR..

eighth of an inch wide and laying the
brain bare. DR.. Parker pronounces the
wound dangerous, one as inflammation OF
the BRAIN may result, Reeves went to his
boarding house, where he will remain. He
came here from Vincennes which he calls
his home, He is single man and has no
relatives living here,
