Loud TesephOue.

An English paper describes a telephone
which will talk loud enough for person
in any part of Il large room to hear and
understand. Mr.. Graham. the inventor
has succeeded not SO much by an inn
provemnt on the existing telephones as
by his method OF arranging h circuit
and bringing Its resistance as low a.
possible. To this end the usual inluc-
ton coil is discarded, and the two instru
ments. transmitter and receiver, are di
rectIy connected in circuit with the line
and the battery. The t~ranslnitter at ON"
end Of the line Is connected to the re-
ceiver at the other end. and two separate
lines are employed having "A common re-
turn wire. Two correspondents can thu;
talk quite freely with each other, and rs
the receivers speak ont so as to he heard
in any part of a room conversation can
be carried on by each person simply
speaking to his transmi;ter.
The apparatus is attached to fiexible
conductors and is held in the hand. To
open a conversation it is sufficient to
pick up the portable translnitter and
press a button in its casing. so rs TO es
tablish the circuit. The receiver at the
loudness of its Voice, aud the response
equally prompt and loud. The
user has therefore no need to listen care
fully with one or two receivers held up
to his head. All he has to do is to SPEAK
into his transmitter and keep his ears

There was an etching hanging in the
window Of a Broadway store, and in
front there was = young woman looking
at it admiringly. By and by she went
in and asked the clerk who seemed to be
in charge Of tie picture department to
show it to her.

that gentleman. sharpening a pencil as
he spoke.
II want to see it," replied the young
woman with surprise, but c~ommendable
firmness.
well" drawled the clerk, shutting
his pocketknife and favoring the Gus
toner with his undivided and somewhat
insolent attention. IF you want to buy
it, I'm willing to take it out of the win

perfectly well from the street. haven't
it in stock, and it's a great Gealtoo much
trouble to get it out if you amt going to
buy it. If you are. I'm willing to take it
down. It's ST."
The young woman was dumb with
surprise. Then she said in soft and DO
lite tones:
You are too kind. | will not trouble

arose a question as 10 just what the prov

About > o'clock this afternoon a pistol
shot in Coleman's saloon drew quite a
crowd to that part Of Main street, and
created a ripple of excitement, but it
passed away when Chief jackson took
the shooter to Jail. 1t appears that the
disturber. Jack Conklin, who has been
employed as a herder by Mcmillan, the
sheepman. came into town yesterday and
this morning cashed acheckforsl79. He
proceeded to have an elegant time, and
during his meanderings about the city,
finally dropped into Coleman's, where he
became involved in trouble with James
Rouzee. He left the house. but soon re.
turned with a gun. and wound up the
matinee by putt ing a hole in the ceiling.
He was disarmed. and taken to Jail to
await a hearing tomorrow.

College Joke.

AS good an example as a be given Of
the jokes played on new students is the
ancient "Pempe' Of Winchester college.
On the first appearance of a boy in the
school a companion will ask him with a
kindly air if he has a book called ''Pempe
Moron Proteron' Greek for ''Send the
fool farther''), without which it will be
impossible to properly get through his
work. Of curse he will say NO." and
then he will be sen on a wild goose
chase from one boy to another in the
hopes of obtaining q copy. The game is
kept up with great spirit until the older
boys are tired of the fun, and hen the
green lad is referred to one Of the mas.
tiers, who, instead of giving him a vol
ume, as he expects, ends his trouble by
explaining to him the joke of ''Pempe."

SELF SACRIFICE.
without u Unsuitable Motive IL becomes .
Sentimental Vagary.

without a JustifiabIe Motive It becomes .
Sentimental Vagary.
Young Lanyan, the midshipman, who
went down with Admiral Tryon on the
Victoria, was a sentimental lad. You
had better jump" cried the admiral to
the boy.
''rd rather stay with you," was the
midshipman's reply.
The boys loyalty to the admiral was
pathetic, but it was a barren display Of
affection. The admiral was right. The
lad ought to have jumped and made .
resolute effort to save his life. The ad-
miral had weighty reasons for preferring
to stay at his post. The midshipman's
life was flung away from sheer excess of
sentiment.
Equally wasteful and unjustifiable was
the zeal of a New Jersey workman, who
listened to a lady's frantic appeal for the
rescue of her dog, which was founder
ing in a pond. She fancied that her pet
was in extreme danger. The workman
plunged into the water and swan out to
the dog. There he was suddenly attacked
with cramp and was drowned before the
lady's eyes. The dog swan ashore and
barked from the bank at the rescuer,
whose intentions had been misunder-
stood. It was more than foolish for a
mar to risk his life for a h~ysterical lady's
pet dog.
Another workman in Brooklyn played
. better part. A cry of Horse run
away!' was raised while he was chatting
with a friend. A frightened horse was
tearing up the street with a wagon be-
hind him, but no driver. Directly in
his track was a baby carriage with a
sleeping child. The nurse, who had been
wheeling the carriage across the street,
had been frightened by the outcries of
bystanders. and deserving her charge
had fed to the sidewalk.
The workman did not hesitate. Spring
ing forward, he caught the animal by
the bride and stopped the horse barely
in time to save the child's life. The
horse, revolving against capture, reared
and made a plunge for liberty. The bri-
die broke in the workman's hands, and
he fell under the horses feet. In q mo-
ment he was trampled to death.
This workman had a wife and children
dependent upon him. He undertook a
most hazardous feat in attempting to
stop the horse by the bride ends in front
of the baby carriage. But although he
lost his life and brought calamity upon
his household he exhibited singular un-
selfishness and fortitude. The sight of
the sleeping child exposed to a horrible
death set his warm heart beating, and
generously and impulsively he did the
only thing that could have been done 70,
the child's rescue.
That was better than = useless sacrifice
of life for a puppy. 1t was nobler than
voluntary suicide with the admiral. who
feared IA our marshai's probable brano
of murderer more than he feared death.
Unless self sacrifice have adequate mo,
tive and justification for the risks, it be.
comes a sentimental vagary involving
senseless waste of life.-Youth's Com.

Ollie Evans. Cook at Stegall's E Eotel
Arrested Yesterday.

Yesterd ~ morning Mr.. ]. R. Stegall
suspicioned that a former cook, Ollie
Evans, knew something about goods that
had been stolen from his hotel. Accord
ingly, he informed Chief Davis, who in
turn went to his home to make search.
His ewes rested on little trunk, in which
he thought might be found some OF the
articles. He thereupon told Evans wife,
that he believed some of the goods taken
from the Huntsville hotel had been sold
them. OF course she protested against
such possibility but Chief Davis de-
manded the keys to the trunk, which she
claimed not to have. He seized the
poker, saying it was good key, where's
upon she unlocked the trunk. The first
thing his eyes rested upon was silver
spoons, knives and forks in abundance,
beside linen, bar glasses and other glass;
ware. Chief Davis politely shouldered
the trunk and carried it to headquarters.
he then secured the services of Sheriff
Powell and went three miles into the
country and arrested Ollie before other
information could reach him, and placed
him safely in Jail.
This was we'll managed fer had he had
little more time, he doubtless would
have distancec the off1cers.-Mercury.
