If is Amusing.

Did you ever watch a person not
used to telephones talking through
one, and see the bows he makes,
when saying "good bye" or notice
him shake his head at questions
asked him? 1t is real funny to
witness these fellows at the teIe-
phone. OF course they will get
used to the talking machine" after
awhile, and these formalities will all
disappear in time. There are 9TH
ers who expect the central office to
"ring up" those whom they wish to
communicate with, when the bell on
their own phones is for that very
purpose This is attributed to
bashfulness.

A MARROW ESCAPE.
A Warning to Boys Who Jump On and
Of Moving Trains.

vi MOVING IrulnSs
One of the boys, who daily hang
about the o. r. R. Railroad depot,
risking their lives by jumping on
the engines, had an experience this
morning, which should be lesson
to him. He attempted to jump on
behind a yard engine, but failed to
secure a footing and was dragged
by the arms clear across the curv-
ing trestle near the corner of Ann
and Second streets. He held on
like grim death until the engineer
discovered the boys perilous pre-
dieament and slowed up. The boys
knees were in a horrible condition,
the skin being completely fayed
off them, while his limbs were a
mass of bruises. 1t will be some
days before he jumps on another
engine.-State Journal.
