Several Days After the Fish Was
Caught and the Corpse Recovered.
From the Net0 York World.
GUTHRIE. o. T., Sept. 13.-Between Te-
cumseh and Purcell, on the banks of the
Canadian river, lives John James, negro.
and his wife and a half-a-dozen children.
About a week ago q 7-year-old son took the
baby, aged months, out for ride in his
wagon. Soon after the boy rushed into the
house naked and stated that he had gone in
swimming and left the baby IN the wagon
on the bank. Suddenly the wagon started
down the bank and the baby plunged into
the river and sank out Of the sight
The parents ran TO the stream, but could
find no trace of the baby. The river was
dragged, but though the wagon was soon
pulled out no body was found. Funeral
services were then held iu memory of the
little one.
A few days after she father and brother
Of the drowned child caught an immense
catfish, and when they came TO clean the
fish they found in the stomach the remains
Of the missing child. The body was badly
torn and chewed up, hut could be reoog-
nized as that Of a colored baby.
The remains were put In coffin, with
some portions Of fish from which they could
not be separated, and another funeral was
held.

He Kent tho Watch.

Gen. Bligh and his wife happened to
arrive at Yorkshire inn when there
was only just so much in the larder as
was sufficient for them, and of course
they bespoke it. Some sporting gentle
men presently arrived, and on hearing
what had happened asked who was
the guest. "An Irish officer" said tho
landlord; whercupon one said: "Oh, if
he's Irish a potato will do for him.
Here, take my watch up to him" "a
very handsome gold one) 'and ask him
what's o'clock" The inquiry had
doubtless some impertinent significance
in those days, which it has now lost.
At all events it brought down the gen

pistol under each arm.
-! am come" lie said, "to tell you
what o'clock it is. Whose watch is
this?' Everybody hastened to deny
any knowledge OF it whatever. Then

eral, "in the company. l received an
impudent message, which I came down
to resent. but find have come to the
wrong room" The watch, which would
have paid his dinner bill fifty times
over, he kept to his death, and left it
by will to his brother, the dean of FL

A down town music store in Lewis
ton was surprised on Friday at the en-
trance of tramp-a ragged, veteran
tramp, who said that he was not vicious,
but only unfortunate. What made
you come into a music store?" asked
the proprietor. The thin cheeks Of the
tramp flushed as he said, II am n mu-
sician." Having said that he played
the violin they handed him one, and
he laid loving cheek against the tid-
die and drew bow of finished power
across the trembling strings. For half
an hour he played to a rapt audience,
peluding with the skill of the ilnpro-
visator and weaving the theme into
many an airy fancy of the strings.
Sometimes he marched up and down
the floor playing and talking.
A new light was born in his eye. Ills
rags were forgotten by all who saw him.
His checks were flushed and his gray
hair was tossed back by an ilnpetuous
wave of his head. In the imagery Of
the strings were palaces Of delight and
strange visions OF wasted hopes and
years. In the pleading voice of the VIC
lin one heard a voice Of long ago, a
mothers tone and baby's cry. That's

and a silence fell upon all around.

An Early Teleeraphio Hlun,er.

There was once a man who received
a telegram which said. Cog hog alonce
gcther is bad" He didn't know what
to make of it. He puzzled over it for
two hours. Then he took it to the
telegraph Office.
Il cant read Chinese" he said.
''Translate that for me-"
The operator who received the mes
sage asked the operator who sent it to
repeat it. 1t turned out to he, Come
home at once; mother is dead"
When the responsibility for the mis-
take was sought. the sending operator
of course alleged that he transmitted
the words properly, and the receiving
operator of course alleged that lie put
down precisely what was sent. AS
neither operator was more experienced
than the other the claims of both were
equally good. So the question of blame
was never settled.
The "cog hog" error is probably one
OF the earliest in the history of the
telegraph. 1t is certainly the most
ancient of the many that tclegraphers
tell about when they get together after

Interesting to Steel 1Ianufaoturers.

a very ingenious device has been in
troduced that will prove of great value
to steel manufacturers. In the forlna-
ton of cast steel ingots, especially those
containing large proportion of carbon,
it is common for the shrinkagc OF the
metal when poured into the ingot
mold to form cavity or cavities in the
upper end of the ingot, and if such
cavity be exposed to the atmosphere
its walls become speedily oxidized, and
in that condition are incapable OF
welding closely.
The new idea is to chill the top of
the casting, and then turn the ingot
upside down before it is soliditied. The
cavity then forms in the other end of
the ingot. where its walls are fully
protected against the oxdizing influence
of the atmosphere. The molds are ar
ranged in such a manner that the
cavity is formed in q stud or projection
at one end of the ingot. In order to
protect the metal first poured in from
hardening too rapidly IL cup of re-
fractory material is placed in tho bot
tom of the mold New York Telegram.
