BEAT THE TRAIN DISPATCHER.


4aaas Operator Used 10 Get Sleopyand Had
the Locomotive wako Him.
Operators who keep lonely Yigil ut
night in little out Of the way railway
stations lead lives which are anything
but enviable. The usual hours are from
p. m. until 2 a M, and how those IL
weary hours drag only man having
had experience knows.
On most railroads night man at
way stations must report to the dis
patcher's Office by wire as sften as once
an hour in order that the dispatcher
may know that sleep has not overcome
the senses of the lonely FOWL" Now
this very necessary thing-sleep- the
most bitter enemy the owl" has to
contend with, but the manner in which
he indulges it is sometimes amusing, to
say the least.
All sorts of contrivances to serve as
an ''eye opener" are conceived by the
knights of the key, but the ingenious
ness of man who few years ago
''held down. night station on the
Fitchburg road caps the climax.
From the time of his first taking the
position he was the source of more an
noyanoe to the dispatcher because of
his little maps" than all the other op-
orators combined. So after having been
''hauled over the coals'' innumerable
times and the promise that the next
ofense meant dismissal Mr.. "Owl" be-
gan to think.
Taking stout cord and fastening it
to the outer rail of the track in front of
his window, he ran it through hole
into the office. Then perching himself
upon table he tied the cord around his
waist, closed his eyes and slept on with
out a care for the morrow
When the first train came bowling
into the station, the cowcatcher of the
engine came in contact with the cord at
tached to the rail, and Mr. "Owl' sud-
denly found himself lying on the floor
wide awake.
By this method he was always on
hand to report the arrival and departure
OF trains, and the dispatcher in Boston
wondered how it was that Mr.. "Owl"
had become so prompt. photographers

HerbiYOrous Animals.

Herbivorous animals do not eat all of
natures menu. The horse refuses the
water hemlock that the goat eats with
ayidity, and, on the other hand, the
goat refuses some plants that are eaten
by the sheep. The tobacco plant is
avoided by all save the goat, man and
the tobacco worm. Some botanists think
that no plant is absolutely poisonous,
but only relatively so, being harmful to
only certain animals.

GENERAL MILES, BOYHOOD.
Loved Fishing and Was the Leader of al
sIndian" Band.

Loved Fishing and Was the Leader of an
'1ndian" Band.
When General Miles was boy, he
had few companions near his home, for
it was farming region and sparsely
settled. His only brother, IL years older
than himself, left home early, and his
two sisters being much older Nelson
was left much to himself.
On Saturdays and other holidays the
schoolboys frequently met by appoint
ment at the home Of one of their num-
Der. They formed themselves into bands
and clans and drilled or carried on min
iature warfare They re-enacted scenes
of the Indian and Revolutionary wars.
The leaders drew lots to settle who
should be 'tthe British, ''the Injins"
or "the 'Mericans.
Nelson Miles frequently led one band.
They made expeditions through the open
wooded country. Sometimes imagining
themselves rowing Indians, they built
wigwams, and sometimes as pioneer
settlers they built log huts They laid
ambuscades, attacked strongholds, cap
tured parties and did many other ad-
venturous things. Their costumes were
gathered from the farmhouse garrets
and consisted Of colonial, continental,
1879 and train band uniforms-former-
ly common in old New England fami-
lies-and limitations Of the dress of the
Narragansett and Iroquois Indians. The
weapons were old flint lock muskets,
shotguns, rusty swords, tomahawks and
bows and arrows
It is easy to infer that the Miles boy
had military aspirations, and that the
promise Of an appointment to West
Point when he should be of the required
age would have been hailed by him
with delight. But a farmers boy with
out relatives or friends with political
influence had no hope of such an ap-
pointment in those days, when cadet
ships went by favor and not by CON-
petitive examination. -NewY ork Press.

The Battle of q Week.

The battle Of Week was the great
conflict at Tours, in which Charles
Martel overthrow the Saracens. A. D.
1872. The members of the Saracen army
are variously estimated at from 400. 900
to 700, 900, and the monkish historians
say that 375, 600 were killed on the field.
1t is suspected that these figures are a
gross exaggeration, but it is certain that
few battles of history have been either
SO bloody Or SO decisive.

- LA CRossR, Wis, Jan. Herbert
y. Flint, the hypnotist, who is giving
exhibitions in this city, has received
the following letter from b B. Odell
Of Minneapolis, attorney and counsel
for Claus a Bixt, the self-confessed
murderer Of Miss Catherine Cling:
MINNEAPOLIS. Jan. i.

ply.
Therefore wish to see you right

(Signed) r. r. ODE1L.
The Probable Theory.
1T is probably the theory Of the de-
fense," said Mr.. Flint, .'that I can SO
influence Blixt, by hypnotism that the
condition Of hysteria in which he has
been since his confession, will subside,
and many Of the details of Harry Hay.
wards alleged participation in the
murder will be brought to light
1t is also expected that it will be
proven beyond all doubt, that Blixt
was compelled to commit the murder
while under hypnotic influence.
It was through Professor Flint ef-
forts that the story of the Mabel
Briggs case at Eau Claire, Wis, was
brought out, and this is probably the
reason Mr.. OdelI is now seeking his
services. Professor Flint has asked
Mr.. Odell for further particulars and
will probably go to Minneapolis at the
close Of his engagement in this city on
Saturday next.
