A Violin Solo by Telephone.

Probably no stranger or sweeter musical
solo ever came to the ears of toiling news
paper man than was heard by Call re-
porter while NJ. Marsick, the celebrated
violinist, was in the city some time ago.
The virtuoso is ever the friend Of the re-
porters, and often plays solely for their
benefit, and this particular time he outdid
himself. On the evening before his depar-
ture, as on numerous occasions during his
visit to this city, he was the guest of Ed
moDd Godchaux, the genial secretary of
the board of health. He was playing a
difficult piece for his host, and when he
had finished he said:
81 wish some of our newspaper friends
might be here to hear a farewell solo.
''That will be easy" answered Mr. God
chaux. "You can play for one over the
telephone wire"
Marsick is as excitable as boy when
pleased, and said:
"That will be delightful Call some one
at once. will play something nice "
The person in Mr.. Godchaux's mind
was in The Call editorial room when the
telephone rang up, and after q moment
spent in explaining the matter Marsick
stood before the transmitter in the secre-
tary's room and played as he and very
few more know how to play.
The dulcet sounds seemed far distant,
but strangely sweet over the wire, and
seemingly realizing the impression he was
creating on his listener, a mile away, the
violinist threw his whole soul into his art
and produced such melody as probably
never before passed through the mechan-
ism of telephone When the solo was
over, the reporters thanks were given.
Marsick bade him graceful farewell, and
Central's Waiting ended the music. -

The first quarterly meeting of the
Henry County Teachers Association
met at Holgate, Ohio, Nov. IA, 1896.
AS the day was pleasant the attend
ance was good-about seventy hay

The most important questions, out
of twenty-nine discussed, were =
Conditions necessary for a success

which? Recess or no recess? Do
we give sufficient attention to
preparing pupils for their future du-
ties as citizens 4? How encourage
pupils to read good literature Spell
ing-how best to teach it? And
when was Decoration Day first OBJ
served
The latter question was not fully
answered but was left for the teach
ers to try and find out if possible,
the exact date.
Those who took an active part in
the discussions were Prof. Beck of
Napoleon, Messrs. Richardson of
Holgate, Hiatt and Hill of Deshler,
Williams of Ridgeville and McCurdy
of Mcclure.
Before the meeting closed motion
was made and carried to hold the

SAWED OUT OF JAIL.
Escape From the Toledo Jail of
Murderer Harry Davis.

Harry Davis, alias Frank Craw-
ford, one of the men arrested on the
charge of completely in the robbery
of the postoffice at North Baltimore
and the shooting of Night Watch
man JEFF Baker, ON the night of June
Goth last, escaped from Jail at Tole-
do last week. He sawed off a bar
from window in the second story of
the jail, and gained his liberty. 1t is
thought he had outside assistance,
as no mark was visible on the ground
where he would have dropped, the
distance being about fifteen feet.
Davis brother was in Toledo yester-
day, and may have helped him. Da-
Wis was to have been tried at Bowl
ing Green on the 23d inst, and Hon.
+. L. Dunn, who was engaged as
counsel for the defendant, had been
busy preparing for the trial. Bob
Curry and Thomas Jones, the other
two of the gang, were to be tried at
the same time. Curry is confined in
the jail at Tiffin, and Jones in the
Bowling Green Jail. Davis was for a
time confined in the Findlay Jail, but
after he had made an unsuccessful
attempt at escape, Sheriff Wren re-
quested that he be taken away.
The friends of Davis had raised
considerable money for his defense,
having already paid Attorney Dunn
$3.50 for his services, and they were
to have paid $120 more this week. 1t
is not probable that Davis will be ap-
pretended again, as he is very slick
man.
There is great indignation in Tole-
do over the escape of the murderer,
and two of the Jail turnkeys have
been arrested upon suspicion of hav-
ing helped the prisoner to escape.

ioned that the Flag had been oiled
