THE CABLE sPooK.

An Uncanny Thing Best rides the Slot Re.
fore Chicago Street Cars.
Whether it is spook or not, it is both
ering the brains of the west side cable
.ar conductors and gripmen and is caus-
.ng all kinds Of guesses on the part Of
>he passengers who travel nightly on the
Milwaukee avenue and Madison street
able cars.
1t looks like wolf, but it may be an
rdinary dog-that is, ordinary in all re-
spects save in appearance.
Two members of the University club
were sauntering along Washington
s'reet. between Dearborn and Clark
streets, week ago last night. A west
bGund Madison street cable car was
ltanding opposite tho Title and Trust
building. The gripman looked as If he
was in a trance. The conductor was
helpless and evidently speechless. In
the center of the street stood something
that looked like a wolf. 1t was not
howling and was not wild looking. 1t
was simply standing over the cable slot
in what, in the case of a man, would
have been called reflective mood.
Some of the women on the front seats
jumped off. When they saw how mild
and harmless the object over the slot
looked, they returned to their seats. The
conductor at last regained his courage
and tugged twice at the bellrope. The
gripman obeyed, the car moved on, and
the passengers leaned over the sides (they
were summer cars, anxious for the fate
of the dog, wolf, spook or whatever it
may have been. 1t did not snarl and
jump on the front seat. 1t quietly moved
away, went over to the sidewalk and
waited-waited just long enough to have
the train pass--then it returned to the
slot, resumed its air of reflection and
stood still. Another train Of cars came
along. The same programme was gone
through.
And so it went all that Sunday even
ing. The following day every gripman
and conductor in the west side cable
service was talking about the thing in
front of the Title and Trust building
They were on the watch for it Monday
night. 1t did not appear. But on Tues
day evening, about . So'clock, it appeared
again and went through the same per-
formance as on Sunday evening, disap.
pearing about midnight. 1t was seen
again Wednesday and Friday, and last
night at o'clock it resumed its place.
Cable car men are superstitious as
much as sailors. They do not like that
thing that stands over the slot on Wash
ington street. Some of them say that it

HANDY WITH THEIR FEET.
nindoos Able 10 Utilize Their neither R4-
tremiLies to Great Advantage.

nindoos Able To Utilize Their neither R4-
trsmities to Great Advantage.
In the native quarters Of the towns Of
India the strange spectacle may be
seen of butcher seizing a piece 0!
meat in his hands and cutting it in
5wo with stroke of his knife held be-
tween the first and second toes of his
foot The shoemaker uses no last, but
turns the unfinished shoe with his feet,
while his hands are busy in shaping it.
So the carpenter holds with his great
toe the board he is cutting, and the wood
turner handles his tools as we'll with his
toes as with his fingers.
This use of the feet to assist the hands
in their labor is not, however, the mere
result of practice, but is principally due
to the fact that the Hindoo foot is quite
different from ours in its anatomical
conformation. The ankle of the Hindoo
and the articulation of the back of the
foot permit considerable lateral motion.
Then tho toes possess surprising mo
bility. The great toe can be moved free
ly in all directions, and the first and sec
ond toes are separated by wide space,
sometimes as much as five-eighths of ar
inch across at the base of the toes and
two inches at their extremitieS
The articulation Of the hip Is also pc
culiar, and this renders 1t easier to use
the toes in handling the objects by en-
abling the Hindoo to sit in squattine
posture much more comfortably thar
we can do A similar formation of the
feet and toes is found among the An
amese, but it is not, as might be sup
posed, common thing among barbar.
GUS and savage tribes
One naturally thinks of the rese,n-
blance to a monkey which a human be-
ing using both feet and hands In the
manner described above must present,
and yet NJ Regnault is careful to point
out the fact that the Hindoo foot is moi
at all like the foot of AN ape or monkey.
The great toe is not opposed to the other
toes like a thumb, as occurs with the
monkey, and accordingly the pedal dex,
terity of the Hindo0s is not TO be taken
as an indication of simian descent -

CARRY our rng PLATFORM.

Bs,th the Republican county and
state platforms demand economy AND
retrenchment In our state government,
and that all state officials be placec
upon salary instead Of receiving un-
known Gums of fees.
The supreme court as newly organ
lied has deferred action until the clos,
OF the present term. Before new
clerk is installed there should be an uU-
derstanding that he is to accept res
sonable salary. There should be t
reduction of several thousand dollar
ia the expense of that department and
especially in the clerks Office. Th'
clerk is now receiving nearly twice as
much as judge Of the supreme cour
receives. The people have hernandez
that all county and state officials b'
placed on salary. The Republican
party-that is the rank and file-pro
pose 10 insist upon this. 1t has bees
done with all county officials. |
should and must be done with all stat
officials. This applies to the office o.

cut off. II our state government Is to Ia

to bring 1t and can have no reasonable
excuse for not so doing. The peopl,

forcement of this proposition, and those

II they entered the employ Of local

they remained ON its pay roll, the max
imum wages earned being 80 cents per
day and the minimum II cents for three
days labor
A Boston Journal reporter recently
visited them.
"Is it true you have never ridden on

1T is, was the reply, land, what is
more, - said both in one voice, 1--WE new
er will. Although the Boston and Maine
railroad has run cars within 10 rods Of
our door ever since they built the road
into this town, we have never yet enter
ed car. We came pretty near it at one
time A few years ago some of the
townspeople wished us to take ride in
the cars, and we came SO near it that we
went to the depot, but backed out be-
fore we got aboard.
Nor have these ladies ever entered a
theater, and very rarely did they enter
society, and in all their lives they have
been separated but 20 hours at any one
interval, and when Elvira was taken i'll

The strong resemblance between them
is still as prominent as ever. One great
popularity about these women has been
that, although living in the same house

lao 'e always lived separately-that is,
