From the Springfield Union.
The first telephone In this section of
the country, If not in any section of 1t, is
thus described by citizen of North
ampton: Alittle more than 50years ago
the employees of the Arms Shoe manu-
factory at South Deeriield beguiled their
leisure hours by kite flying. Kites large
and small went up daily, and the strife
was TO see who would get the largest.
The Irvine which held them was the
shoe thread spun and twisted by the
ladies Of the village. One day TO the
tail Of the largest kite was attached a
kitten, sewed In canvas bag, with n
netting over the mouth to give II air.
When the kite was Mt Its greatest height
some 200 feet or more-the mewing of
the kitten could be distinctly heard by
those holding the string. 10 the clear
ness of the atmosphere was attributed
the hearing of the Kittens voice. and no
telephone patent was applied for.

Story OF Charles O'Conor,

'sThe true story of how the late
Charles O'Conor came to act rs counsel
in the Forrest divorce case is told by the
Syracuse Herald. Mrs. Forests friends
at first tried TO engage him, but he re-
fused positively to have anything to do
with the case. But they had spread
abroad reports of their intention to en-
gage him, hoping to frighten Forrest;
and Forrest had heard and believed
them. A few honrs after his final re.
fusal TO be Mrs. Forests counsel, MIR.
O'Conor took his seat in horse-car to
80 home. A moment later Forrest en-
tered. His eyes fell upon O'Conor and
flashed fire. Believing the lawyer to he
his wife's counsel, he strobe up to him
and, in tho presence of the assembled
passengers, deliberately trod on his toes.
Mr.. O'Conor rose, quilted the car, and
returned to his office. There he wrote
brief note to Mrs. Forrest, accepting
her case without retainer; and u more
remorseless warfare was never waged by
counsel upon an adversary's client than
that which Mr.. O'Conor opened against
the great actor the next day.
