serious accident day before yesterday
while playing near a barbed wire fence

Twenty street. The little fellow

fell, catching his fingers on the barbs and
badly decorating them. DR. Adams was
called TO attend to the boys wants, and re-

are hopes of recovery.

letter is not issued. and Uncle Sam will
not pay for it IL it is lost or stolen.
The registered mail is put into little
pouch, which is put inside of the regu-
lar mail sack. When the road agent
gets hold of mail sack he rips it open,
either by running his knife around the
sack near the bottom, or by making
two slashes criss cross in one side of
the sack Thanks to Uncle Sans kind
consideration and foresight, he isn't
obliged to ransack thousand letters,
but finds all the valuable mail sorted
out and neatly done up in an easily
portable pouch, which he takes along
to open at his leisure in the brush.
OF all the devices and inventions for
the protection of treasure and the Cir
cumvention of the road agent, the only
one that has stood the test of time and
experience is big, ugly-tempered
man with a sawed-off shotgun on the
box. OF course, when the other fellow
has the drop shotgun is of no moro
use than piece of lead pipe; but the
lone road agent can't watch n lot of
passengers and driver, and at the
same time keep the drop on man who
has been hired to shoot him full of
holes, and only wants half a chance
to do it. If the robber gets the drop
on the messenger and keeps it, and
contents himself with ordering the

driver to throw out the box, he may
win; but, it is the business of the man
with the sawed-of shotgun not to let
him get the drop, but to blaze away as
soon as he shows up. The gun is sawed
off for the greater convenience of the
messenger in potting road agents. 1t
is loaded with bucl1shot and scatters
like charge of bribery fred into a
California legislature. The length of
the gun is such that when the muzzle
rests upon the footboard the locks are
level with the messengers knee, and
he can swing it up into position very
readily. If he gets it pointed any
where near the robber, some of the
buckshot are sure to hit.
An old Nevada drivers modification
of the messengers gun was a single
barreled shotgun worn in his right
boot, the muzzle protruding through
the bottom near the heel. When held
up he stuck out his leg toward the rob
Der, as if he were feeling for the brake,
and pulled the trigger. But one hand
was required to work the gun and the
effect was something in the line of
painful surprise.-San Francisco Ex'

How the Brave Men Obey Orders with

The light from the electric lamps is
reflected in patches on the smooth steel
beams of the engine. In and out, in
and out, like shuttles weaving, work
the rods, their perfect rhythm of mo-
ton and precision of movement giving
no hint of the great speed at which the
giant vessel is cleaving her way.
Days have passed without signal
from above, the engines throbbing
steadily. Everything is repose; the in-
cessant motion of the machinery is so
common to the men that they do not
notice it. The deck may be ever Sc
noisy and these men, buried in the
bowels of the ship, would never know
it.
Suddenly the great signal gong
sounds upon the stiffness a single reso'
nant clang-stop. The engineer and
his assistants are at their posts in an
instant; the engines stop. This, the
first signal for hours, yes days, means
to them nothing, but that it must be
instantly obeyed.
1t may be man overheard; it may
be in another instant some vessels

only know their orders; the bell ha:

With hands upon the wheels they
stood waiting, every nerve strained, il
utter ignorance of what the sigma

going on; but these men know nothing
but duty.
A moment passes without word il

ready for the next order. 1t comes

THE EDITOR ON THE CIRCUS.
What an Ohio Journalist Does to Rest His
Weary Brain.

Weary Brain.
This is a circus day, and the small
boy is in his element-ditto his small
sister. Yea, and the children of large
growth-for are we not all children
when the circus comes to otown?-rejoice
to see the gayly-caparisoned horses, the
gaudy wagons, the elephants, as the
procession passes through the streets.
Circus day is but an epitome of
human life, for the world is very much
of a circus. The band plays the ele-
plants go round the ring, the ring
masters crack their whips, the clowns
make merry with the throngs, the side
shows fill the air with clamor, the
people MUNICH their peanuts and drink
their lemonade, and those among them
who are green get swindled by the
thin ble-riggers and petty cheaters.
Yes, life is much like circus day. 1t
is delightful in the morning, when the
mind is filled with anticipations of q
long day of delight with an evening of
quiet pleasure. Everything is fresh and
buoyant, and the clown well, he's
always supposed to be somebody else.
But the cool of the early day gives way
to the glaring noontide; the tent is
packed, and while the performance is
good, it has not the zest which we an
ticipated. The dust is annoying, the
heat prevents full enjoyment We
laugh at the quips and quirlss of the
clown, dimly conscious that, though
that is expected of us, it is not worth it.
The evening brings WEAKNESS, and the
performance is fat and stale. All who
can, stay to the concert after the show,
anxious to see all they may, but having
an inner consciousness that it won't
pay. Then the canvass is down, the
lights are out, and-Darkness.
Yes, all the worlds circus, and it is
always new. When the night comes tc
us, the sun is always rising somewhere
else, The tent is always going up some.

The mornings wait for the gay process,
sion, bright with color and fiuttering
flags, moving to blare of trumpet, the
beat of drum, the clash Of cymbals; an6

That was not the work of profess

of the robber is to secure plunder, and

The attack upon the Tombstone stage
was the work of man-killer, who had

WHALES IN PRISON.
How They Are Sometimes Captured in Ic
bcrgS.

How They Are Sometimes Captured in Ice
bergs.
The whales that live in northern
waters in winter have often to scour
the seas through the widest storms in
search of food.
Sometimes they visit still regions at
the bottom of the deep, and if they fail
to find there cod, herring, haddock or
the other fishes upon which they prey,
they start for some arm of the sea or
bay where they are pretty sure of find
ing at least meal of herring.
When gale blows very hard whales
get under the lee of some high cliff
where the water is calm, and frequently
takel shelter by the edge of some great
iceberg or piece of heavy ice foe.
Sometimes large body of ice moves
landward, driving them before it, and
filling every nook along the coast
When this happens, the whales are
unable to rise to the surface to breathe,
for northern ice-foe is so thick that
thousand legions of men might move
upon it with safety. The creature
therefore browns in few minutes.
These facts bear upon something
that happened on the coast of Cape
Brenton. One morning early in April
fragment of polar ice-floe came in
sight, and the wind brought it rapidly
toward the shore. Some people watch
ing it were surprised to see in great
hollow on the inner edge, two huge
black objects.
As the ice drew nearer these were
made out to be whales, They were
evidently dead, for neither of them
made any movement. The ice was
wedged firmly around them, and they
lay side by side, the tail of one being
partly covered with ice. There was
scarcely water enough in their icy
prison to float them, and evidently not
enough for them to live in even had
they been able to get food there.
When the ice foe touched the jutting
point of headland it broke in two be-
tween the monsters, one part swinging
outward around the point and moving
seaward, the other pushing into a small,
deep cove and carrying one of the
whales along.
The fishermen launched their boats,
mounted the foe and fastened grapnels
and stout hooks into the blubber of the
whale. The carcass was frozen hard
as the ice itself, and must have been in
its prison for considerable time The
ice remained pressed close to the shore
for several days, during which time the
fishermen were enabled to strip off the
fat with axes and sharp spades.
How were the whales thus imprisoned?
My own opinion is that in some
part of Baffin's Bay they had taken
shelter on the leeward side of an ice
foe which was probably aground
During the storm the foe became broker
and the detached part swung round anG
imprisoned them. The mass afterwards
froze together and when the current
began to set strongly towards the south
in March, the ice and it's captives drift
ed off, at last reaching the Cape Brentor
coast. Companion.
