The Green Bag.

The carrying of cloth bags which close
with a string has become 50 common that
such bag is no longer sign OF a lawyer
even green bag, for certain men of lit
erary or newspaper pursuits have ventured
to carry their manuscripts back and forth
in bags of pure legal green. However, gen
tlemen of other professions, If they do not
care to be taken for lawyers, will still
choose black broadcloth rather than green
for these extremely convenient receptacles.
The subject reminds the Listener OF II
true story. Not long ago Mr.. Alpheus
More-G Gage, a chamber lawyer of great
ability but small practice, and even smaller
stature, was travelling homeward with a
well stuffed green bag under his arm, when
a brother Of The law overhauled him.
"Hellop' said the brother. Il congratu-
late you, More-Gage. on your evident pros
perity."
what makes you think I'm prosper
ousg" asked the little lawyer.
why, your bag hassu plethorlc and
fee like look that couldn't infer anything
else"
"Shr' said More-Gage, drawing the other
nearer "Ill tell you what I've got in my
bag if you won't tell soul: it's Goldfish
and a pair of rubber boots for the boy!'-

Tho Manufacture of Plate Glass.

The casting table of plate glass factory
is about 90 feet long. Is feet wide and Z
inches thick Strips Of iron on each side
afford a bearing for the rollers, and de-
termine the thickness Of the plate to be
cast. The molten glass is poured on the
table, and the roller passing from end to
end spreads the glass 70 a uniform thick
ness. The glass, after cooling rapidly, is
transferred TO the annealing oven, where
it remains several days. When taken out
1t is very rough and uneven, and in that
state is used for skylights and other pur-
poses where strength is desired rather
than transparency. The greater part OF
the glass, however, is ground, smoothed
and polished.-New York Commercial Ad-

BADLY HURT.

Fireman Shauner, Of Hose house No. 3,
met with quite serious accident Thurs
day afternoon. He was out exercising the
horses and was riding one and leading the
other, when the one led jerked away from
him and started to run. Mr. Shauner
pursued on the other horse, which he was
riding bare-backed. Just as he came up
to the runaway horse, and stopped to
catch the lead strap, the horse he was rid
ing stumbled and threw him over its head.
Shauner's head struck upon rough
piece of ice which cut his face badly and
stunned him so he had to be carried to the
house. lie is somewhat better at present
and was able to be down town yesterday,
although he has a very black eye.

CauSe of High Waves.

Waves raised by the friction of the wind
upon the water are relatively superficial,
as the water beneath remains unaffected
even at a depth Of COO feet. In heavy gales,
however, lower depths become troubled,
and the undulations more and more i'm
posing. Occasionally an exceptionally
large solitary wave is met with advancing
in awe inspiring grandeur, its white crest
towering high above all its fellows. such
ocean giants may be due TO the fact that
the elevations Of series Of waves, having
different lengths. happen to coincide, or
may be caused by the squalls of wind,
which are sometimes as terrible IN III
tensity as they are sudden in formation

THE FIRE RECORD.

Yesterday morning the fire department
received an alarm from the corner OF First
and Main and the chemical was sent out.
The trouble was a gasoline stove had ex-
ploded in one of the rooms of the Gandolfo
block. The fire was soon extinguished.
About 9o'clock an alarm came in from
the corner of Douglas and Emporia, and
another run was made This pro we'd to be
an incipient fire in the ceiling and roof OF
a building on the northwest corner, occu-
pied as a confectionery and bakery. A
few bucketfuls of water squelched the
blaze and the hose was not turned on.
The third alarm come in from the corner
of Topeka and Third, and proved TO be
more serious than either of the others. a
barn belonging to Mr.. H. G. Ruggles, sit
uated on the alley on the south side OF
Third was found to be on fire The blaze
was breaking through the roof when dis
covered and by the time the department
arrived the whole barn and
the one Immediately adjoining it
belonging to George Campbell were in
flames. The water was turned on from
two plugs and the flames soon extinguish-
ed but both barns were a total loss, to
gether with about two tons Of hay and a
small amount of coal.
A team belonging to Mr.. Campbell was
in his barn at the time, but was gotten out
before the fire reached them. \ wagon
load of groceries stood in one of the barns
and was hauled out 10y the firemen.
The fence across the alley was on fire
several times but was extinguished before
burning very much.
The supposition by people living In the
neighborhood is that boys were playing in
the haymow of Mr.. Ruggles' barn with
matches and set it on fire, but no one Is
certain as to how it came about.

A Bears Toe Nails.

One of the difficulties which the keepers
of certain wild animals in museums and
other collections have to contend with j.
the tendency Of the claws TO grow i1to the
flesh, in the absence Of the wear and tear
which they receive in the animals wild
state A wild bear, for instance, uses his
claws so much in climbing that they are

THE NEW TELEPHONE DIRECTORY.

The new telephone directory is a snare
and a swindle on patrons, an enforced
advertising scheme that is extremely in
convenient and time consuming. What is
wanted is a plain card with no INTERCEPTED
advertisements, with the names alphabet
ually arranged in columns OF uniform
type The only way TO beat the humbug
sent around yesterday and to save a waste
of time is to call up central and tell whom
YOU want. without attempting TO find the
number in the pages of the directory
made up book fashion for advertising.
The aggregated time LOST by the dodge re-
ferred to will necessarily be great and if
it is to be lost LEI the telephone company
not the busy man lose it
