A Drummer'S Lively Expert

"Drummers are capable Of doing,
some pretty slick things when they
want to-" The speaker was an ex-
drummer. 81 knew young member
of the 'profesh' he continued
addressing a reporter, "who play
cd good one on q tobacco house
in Savannah on one occasion.
A severe hurricane passed over
the southwestern portion of Gcor-
gia, and the young drummer hap
pened to be down in that section
ut the time. The firm here knew that
he was there, and they were alarmed.
They wired, but were unable to get n
reply to any of their dispatches, as
the lines in that section were on the
ground. The tracks were washed and
trains did not move for a week. The
young drummer, failing to get
word from his house. and being un-
able to leave where he was
stopping, fell in with company
of young men and had a royal big
time. He had some prize sample CT
gars and he opened box after box
and they were smoked up. He had
a. good deal of premium chewing to-
bacco and the country boy helped
him chew it. When the weed ended
he was without samples. During the
excitement he did not stop to think
in what a predicament he would be
when he would start out with score
of empty grips. He stuck by the
boys, enjoying him self with the boys
until toward the end of the week,
when he received u dispatch from the
house reading like this: Are you
safe? Wire particulars 1t flashed
in his mind to put up pitiful stor y
and he sent them this: Escape d
with my life, but samples
gone; send more 1t was n great
hit. The proprietors repienished the
sample cases and. in addition, sent
their representative several boxes \of
fine Havunus for his own use"
The young man made his rounds
on the extras and came into the city
as fresh as you please. receiving the
congratulations OF friends and the
firm.

some French Industries.

Three OF the profitable industries
peculiar to Southern France are the
distillation of essential oils from wild
aromatic plants, the manufacture of
cultivated flowers, and preparation of
preserved fruits by the process of
capitalization. The harvesting and
1istillation OF lavender give employ
ment to large share OF the peasant
population-men, women and children
and so profuse is the supply that in
good seasons the people who gather
and sell lavender to the distillers ut
very low prices are able to earn rs
much as 80 or 90 cents or even 81 a
day, wages that are considered NUM-
ficent in that country Of scont employ
ment and ill-requited labor Three

troll.

Dantzer's paper was filed with Incl
dents relating to railroad work. but
the really wonderful incidents of which
he treated are taken from the NAM
moth pressrooms in which Philadelphia
abounds. The thunderous rumble and
clash OF the modern presses, which
are considered the most intricate ma
chimes in the world. is a pleasant tune
to the pressmon. but let q bolt become
loose letsa band slip or n piston or
bar get out OF place. and there is a
discord in the pleasant tune. Instantly
every man in tho pressroom. no matter
what no may be doing. raises his head
and turns his eye in the direction of
the discordant noise. The particular

particular part of tho ponderous ma
chine whore the discord is being made

slant any part OF the noble engine

queer incidents of his experience as
