Blown Through the Sky.lIght.

The vulcanizer in DR.. Geo. S. Wilson's
dental rooms exploded about noon We'd
nesday, sending the collar and pair of
forceps and monkey-wrench flying
through the sky.light, burning DR.. Will
sons hand and pal nfully wounding Gen.
Geo. NJ. Edgar about the face and ear.
DR.. Wilson had just taken the vulcan
izer from off the alcohol lamp, and with
forceps in left hand and monkey wrench
in right was unscrewing the collar, talk
ing the while to General Edgar, when
the thing exploded, flying, very fortu
nately, straight up. The pieces went
flying through the sky-light, sending
down shower of broken glass-a piece
of the vulcanizer going over the building
and falling in the street. 1t was mar
row escape.

1t is with sincere regret that the many
friends of DR.. R. A. Shine, the popular
dentist, will learn that he will leave Al,
bany on July LIST.
DR.. Shine returned to the city yester-
day morning from Tallahassee, Fla, his
old home, where he has be- IA for some
time attending at the sick bed of a
brother. His brother is much better, but
the inducements for him to return to
Florida are so great that he cannot resist
them, and while he reluctantly yields to
the pressure, at the same time 1t is so
great that it cannot be ignored.
DR.. Shine has done we'll in his profess
sion here. He has made hosts of friends
and his professional career has been sig
nailed with grea' success.
His removal to Tallahassee will be a
great loss to Albany. News and

Must be Summer Love.

Bah, whose sparkling babllngs weekly
ornament the columns of numerous news
papers, thus defines love:
For my own part, think love is very
much like hockey pokcy ice cream. The
day is warm, the sign is attractive, you
stand and read hickey pokey ice cream,
only cent square" You are weary,
you are warm, you feel in your pocket,
you find the cent, you know that you are
going to get delicious mouthtul that will
make YOU, o. SO happy! You walk up to
the cart where love-1 mean hockey pokey
ice cIeam-is sold; you lay down your
penny, you demand your square. It's
given to you on piece of brown paper; it
looks fascinating; you walk back to the
pavement, and you conclude not to take il
down in gulp, but to enjoy it by slow
moulhfuls. At first it is delightful. The
second mOuthful is cool, but suggestive OF
oleomargerine the third mOuthiul is waxy
and sticky; and then you take The last with
q wry face and are disguised with yourself
for buying il; feel that 1t has upset your
heart-I mean your stomach-and that
you never want any more again. And you
don't, until the next time you are warm
and the enticing hokey-pokey comes along
to lead you to new loves and new pains.

they dread being seasick. This can ne
longer be an excuse, for Messrs. T. J. Rob

teams at 81 q day. The trip to Corr
