MyStiffed by an Authorization.

Among the stories told about the ex-
periences Of police telegraph operators
by the attaches Of the electrical bureau
is one which relates to an ex-special
officer, who is now regular operator
at substation up town. While acting
as ''sub'' in West Philadelphia dis
trict he received call from the CEN
trail, which he promptly wrote on his
slate as he received it. At the close Of
the message he found that it read:
"send wagon to Phil. Ahosp. and learn
condition Of Hen. Coop" He was COM
pletely stalled. He could not imagine
who Phil. Ahosp was, nor where he was
to be found, nor what particular hem
coop the central was interested in. He
felt that there was a mistake some
where, but was satisfied that it must be
at the other end Of the wire. AS the
hour Was near relieving time, he decid-
ed to wait and consult his relief before
sending the wagon on a wild goose
chase or asking the central to repeat.
On the arrival of his relief he was in
formed that the operator who had sent
the message generally abbreviated his
messages, and probably the one received
would read: "Send wagon to Philadel-
phia hospital and learn condition of
Henry Cooper" This proved to be the
nroner solution. Philadelphia Record

LOSS OF The PRESIDENT.
Strange Story OF the Scut51ing of Great
Steamship by Pirates.

Strange Story OF the Scut51ing of Great
Steamship by Pirates.
What strange story is that CON-
municated by the Duke Of Newcastle to
The Globe concerning the loss Of the
Presidents! He says that trr!stw orthy
Informant in the United States assured
him that sailor, dying in an American
port, had confessed to having formed
one of the crew of a pirate vessel whicn
captured the great steamship. Every
soul On board was made to walk the
plank, and the ship was scuttled.''
The story seems incredible, yet it may
be true, and the possibility Of it gives
one quite shock It is SO years ago
and more since the President disappear
cd from human sight, without, l be-
ieVe, leaving trace. The loss of no
oGher vessel-for it was the first of the
g2 eat passenger ships to go-has caused
SO great az excitement. How those at
home CLING to hope, somo of them for
years---for the notion Of the crew being
wrecked on some out of the way island
gas eagerly adopted-and how many a
heart was broken by the intolerable
suspense! At last it was generally con-
oluded that the ship had collided with
an iceberg and foundered And now
comes this terrible story, which, it is
fortunate, was not conceived of when
it would have had the power to make
those at home more miserable.
1t is not to be forgotten, however,
that more than one story has been re-
GENTLY written upon this subject-the
capture and souttling Of a passenger
gteamer-and it seems more likely
that they have suggested the idea being
adapted to the loss of the President than
that solitary pirate should have re-
vealed such long kept secret of the
seas -LondOn News.

With the Accent on the Votars.

Mrs. Meriwether Of Memphis says:
eve asked that the girls of our state
be protected until they were 10 years
old, the law extending that gracious
protection up to the ripe age of 10. We
fought desperate battle for six years,
and when the age was finally raised to
16 the women who had stood the brunt
OF that long battle saw it proved beyond
all peradventure that no influence Of
theirs had won the day, but the simple
fact that six years Of bitter experience
had taught them the only weapon that
would kill, and they used it. They bur-
led the senate chamber and representa-
tives hall under voters petitions and
came out victors.''
