results are not so disastrous as in for
mer years. This is owing to the multi
plicatiOn OF wires to every section. For
instance. 1t is well nigh impossible TO
have a general breakdown between Chi
cago and New York. The Western
Union has six sets of wires running to
the eastern metropolis. One runs over
the Michigan Central and through Can
ada, another over the Michigan South
ern, another over the Pennsylvania Cen
trail, fourth over the Nickel Plate, the
fifth over the Baltimore e Ohio and the
other along the national highway.
Should there be break on any one OF
those lines the business is transferred 10
the wires of one of the other routes. If
all the wires went down east OF Cleve-
land on the Lake Shore, the business
would be put on others working TO that
point. In the event OF general pros
tration between here and Cleveland the
switchboard would be manipulated to
locats the break and a patch" made
until the damages could be properly
prepared. In case the overland wires
go down between Chicago and west OF
Omaha, the business would be diverted
to through wires on the Northern and
Southern Pacific roads. Sometimes mes
sages are seat to their destination over
peculiar routes. When direce eastern
communication is interrupted business
is often sent to New York by way OF
New Orleans or Nashville. Newspaper
specials have been sent to Chicago from
New York via Cheyenne. In this in
stance the direct wires east Of New
York were down." but those to st.
Louis were working. ST. Louis could
not get" Chicago, but wbs so. X" to
Kansas City, whence the dispatches
were sent to Cheyenne via Denver, and
hen from Cheyenne TO Chicago. 0ccs-

DIR. BROWN.
PLEASE RING THIS BILL.

Now, Just at that particular moment
I was at peace with all the world and
was feeling like king. If any man had
asked me for New York city l would
have given IL to him without the slight
est hesitation. And so when | saw that
polite request to ring that bell. l im-
mediately decided to oblige DR.. Brown.
I stood there and rang about seventeen
times before | observed any effect what
ever. Then an old man in dressing
gown and slippers opened the door and
snapped ont: well, do you think we
are all deaf? What is wanted?"
Good evening, doctor, replied;
fine night, isn't it|
"'What do you want, sir?'
Nothing. l don't want anything In
the world just now. l have everything
l want
"'Then what 30 you mean, sir, by
pulling my bell in such a manner at this
time of the night?'
"'Why, bless your heart, didn't you
ask me to do it? II you don't want your
bell rung why co you ask the public TO
"please ring this bell"? | am always
willing TO accommodate fellow-man
whenever I can do so consistently. II
YOU request me to yank the stuffing out
of your old bell I'm willing TO do it
every time. See?'
But he evidently didn't see, for he
called a policeman and it took me a
quarter OF an hour to explain the situa-
ton to the blue-coat.'
