The Huntsville (Mo.) Herald says
that Bob Murphy, who Lives with his

miles northeast of Huntsville, is an en-

he rooster as superior to all mechanic

~ recently Bob and his brother Ernest
de up their minds to go with the

,olumbia To do this they had to get
70 about three o'clock in the morning,
20 as to catch the early southbound
train at Cairo for Moberly.
Fearing they might not awaken in
time, and not having much confidence
in the alarm clock, Bob went to the
chicken house, caught his favorite
gamecock, took him to the house,
placed the cock on the head of the bed
stead and retired, sleeping as soundly
and sweetly as an infant child with a
full stomach. The cock, as it antici-
pating perfectly what was required OF
him, remained quiet until three o'clock
sharp, when it commenced growing

Cannon on Runners.

In the Austrian army many exper-
aments were made last winter near
Kral1au in the substitution of snow
runners for the ordinary cannon wheels.
Mai. Gen. Won Eschenbacher, of the
Austrian artillery, now reports that the
tests resulted favorably to the innova-
tion. The wheels of the cannon were
made fast with strong brakes and steel
runners of a snowshoe pattern were
bound with rope to the underside OF
each. The cannon were dragged for
three hours in snow between nineteen
and twenty-nine inches deep and the
estimated saving Of effort in the trans
portation was approximately twenty
five per cent. Several drifts more than
three feet high were passed without
difficulty. On ordinary declines, two
men at the muzzle were able to retard
the speed of the descent sufficiently.
An ssice-ring'' brake served the same
purpose on a mountain side. The fit
ting of a cannon with runners required
ten minutes and the removal OF Their

stories of their master. Here is one OF
the best: A titled man about town,
after wasting much time in the Latin
quarter, finally managed by hook or
crook to become enrolled as a pupil OF
the great master. Day after day the
nobleman came, took his place before
the model, ana sAetched as best he
could. Finally Gerome paused before
the new pupil one day, and said: "You
come here in the morning; what do you
do in the afternoon?" ''Oh," said the
nobleman, II ride in the Bots, see few

DOUBLE DREAMING.
II Lady and Her Absent Friend See the
-. Same Vision While Asleep.

y Lady and Her Absent Friend Soc the
Same Vision While Asleep.
A young married lady relates the fol-
lowing remarkable experience of tele-
pathy in Blackwood's Magazine. Short
" after her marriage she had accom-
panied her husband to India. 1t was
toward the end of the mutiny, and she
was separated from him-he being
about forty miles away and, as she be-
ieved, in great personal danger. For
the first time in her young life she was
left alone.
One night, on retiring to rest, feeling
far from well, depressed, too, by the
sense Of loneliness and by anxiety
on her husbands account, she ''could
not help crying" and fell, as she
thought, into a troubled sleep, in which
she dreamed or fancied that an elderly
gentleman who had shown them much
kindness on their first arrival in India,
but who was then residing at a consider
able distance, entered her room and APP
preaching the bed said:
''My dear child, know well what you
are suffering, and believe me, feel
deeply for you,'' and that he stopped
down and kissed her. Though quite
aware, she said, that it was merely a
vision, she felt greatly consoled.
The mutiny ended, she was with her
husband in Calcutta at an evening
par ~, at which she met their frind. He
expressed his pleasure at seeing her
agai1, after long interval. "It is not
so long," she replied, s'since saw YOU
and she described the vision. With ex-
pressions of the utmost astonishment
he declared that he himself had had
similar vision, or rather dream. II
dreamed that I saw you crying and
tried to console and kissed you.
