Uncle Orrin Stone was the oracle Of
Prairietown. His opinion was taken as
final on all topics of village government,
school management, or church cboirs.
He criticised everything for years. in the
certainty that his word would always be
taken as law.
But the time came when the modern
spirit of change began to have its in
tiuence on Prairietown. Some of the
boys and girls who had been aw?v to
school in indianapolis or Chicago came
home with plans and notions which I'm
Gle Orrin's disapproval was not permit
ted to affect. He gave out his words of
praise or blame just the same, although
he found more to cenSure than to COM
mend in the ways of the Young peopIe
who had been brought into contact with
broader civilization.
AT last there was musical festival in
Prairietown. The largest hall in the
place was decorated with wreaths and
flags, and singers from the city came to
take the leading parts in the programme
for the great day. \ soprano from city
church, one who had been praised by
thousands, came to sing the two solos in
Rossinis ''Carita"
Uncle Orrin went. and sat in A front
seat, as usual. He listened intentlv, as
he did on all occasions, but the expires
sion of his face was not one of approval,
while Miss Appleton's lovely voice filled
the hall with the notes of her exquisite
solos.
After the concert, his nephew, John
Stone, who had sung in the chorus, over
took the old gentleman on his way home.
well, uncle, what did YOU think of
our concert" asked john
"a terrible breaking down, want ir?''
returned Uncle Orrin.
"What do you mean?"
why, twas just terrible the way you
all broke down them two times, and that
poor Appleton girl had to 90 right on
singing all by herself. Tell you! she's a
spunky one!'-Youth's Companion.

A railroad ticket to Trenton was the
means of stirring up quite an excite
ment in Baltimore. The owner-a
man named West-for safe keeping
put 1t III his hat, and both hat and
ticket were blown into Jones falls.
One dollar reward! One dollar re-
ward! shouted West, and in an in
slant dozens of cab drivers. newsboys
and booth lacks scampered down the
falls and followed the ticSet until it
lodged against the high wall Just be
meath the ST. Paul brid se. Mr. West
commanded the party, and with his
cane pointed to where the ticket was
lodged, on the opposite side of the
stream.
There was about twenty feet of
water, of uncertain depth, separating
the men from the little strip Of paper,
and cab drivers and bootblacks began
at once to remove their boots and roll
up their trousers TO wade across. The
current Is rather swift at this point
One little fellow, about 10 years Of age,
plunged IN with his clothes, shoes and
even hat on. He had gotten half way
across when the current rolled him
over and over in the muddy water, and
the crowd howled. He got out all
right. Finally the ticket started again
to sail down the stream, and cabman
managed to draw it ashore with his
whip. Mr.. West paid the dollar, had
just three minutes time to catch the
train, and was given rousing cheer by
the crowd as he rode away to Trenton
with a ticket considerably worse for
wear, but still good for one first class
fare. -Philadelphia Ledger

The TeIephonic Probe.

At the meeting of the College of Ply
sicians in Philadelphia DIR. John Girdner,
of New York, exhibited, by in 7itation of
the college, for the first time, his tele-
phonic probe, and explained its mode of
application The instrument is used to
locate bullet or other metal substance
that has become lodged in the body. 1t
is operated by the natural electricity in
the patient 1t consists of three parts !:
One, sort of audiphone, which is placed
over the physician ears; steel probe
and steel bulb The bulb is placed in
the patients mouth and the probe is in
serted in the wound. If the probe strikes
a piece of bone it makes no response, but
if it strikes the metal which caused the
wound it gives distinct clicking sounds.
