PRINTER LYNCH,

Story Illustrating tue Crankiness OF
His Nature.
G-inters' stories incipde,one aboS.s
- .nan named Lynch, which illustrates
the crankiness Of the printers ma
ture. He had cases on the
Chicago Tribune, but he OBJ
jected to working Saturday night
Saturday night is the heavy night on
all morning newspapers, and Mr..
Lynch mightas well have asked for
marmalade with whrolf, TO paste his
"string" as ask to get of that night
But he was q determined man, and
he had been printer long enough
TO be mean. and there is nothing
more ornery than mean printer
except a mean proof reader, who
does not belong in any superintern-
al comparisons. So when Mr. Lynch
had asked to be relieved OF Saturday
night duty and had been refused he
just lay down and refused TO set more
than 5000 ems for any man. The
foreman did not want TO cut the ele-
vator rope on Mr.. Lynch, so he told
him he need not work Saturday night
at all, and Mr.. Lynch was glad. He
went down to John Jacky O'Brien's
tunnel and over glass of pilsener
contded TO a number of gentlemen
who had arisen from sleep as if
awakened by an alarm clock upon his
entrance that the man who would
toll Saturday nient was little less
than .,serf Thereafter Saturday
night idleness began to irk Mr.. Lynch,
and In less than a month he came
down one saturday afternoon, took
chew of tobacco and started for his
cases.
"Hold on there. Lynch! Where
are you going?" demanded the fore
man.
"Going to work" said Mr.. Lynch
ooh, no; this is saturday night"
"Mean to say can't go to work."
Certainly"
"Going to make me stand bobtail
week."

Then as a member of the Chicago
Typographical Union, No. 16, with
my dues paid up and working card in
my pocket, want to say that before
I'll let any slave driver of foreman
prevent me from working seven days

And so he did. and went TO work
in the Office Of the Plumbers Gazette,
where the type was as big as dough-
nuts and the proofreader marked COM
mas in the middle of words.

when Lightning trikes sand.

A fulgurite is formed by bolt of
lightning. a geologist gives this
explanation: when a bolt of light
ming strikes led of sand it plunges
downward into the sand for dis
lance, less or greater, transforming
simultaneously into glass the silica
in the material through which it
passes. Thus, by its great heat, it
forms at once a glass tube of pre-
cisely its own size. Now and then
such a tube is founG and dug up.
Fulgurites have been followed into
the sand by excavations for nearly
thirty feet. They vary in interior
diameter from the size of quill 10
three inches or more, according to
the bore of the flash.
