Each His Own Timepiece.

There is well known gentleman in
business In Main street who possesses re
markablc power, which is also of great
service To him. He can 20 for hours at a
time during the day without looking at "a
timcpicce, and when asked what time it is
he can tell within five minutes the cx-
act position of the hands of the clock. Ho
always allows himself a margin of five
minutes or either side of the exact time
but us general rule lie can tell the time
to the exact minute or within one or two
minutes of it.
This power of time telling resembles
that possessed by tho famous Ruhc Field
of Missouri, who died some years ago
Field could be awakened from his sleep
at any hour OF the night, and he could tell
the time to the exact minute.
He was also u mathematical prodigy.
Though he had never received any school
ing to amount to anything in muthcmat-
les, he was able at IL glance TO solve the
most abstrusc problems. louisville Com

become so much a characteristic Of
the Advertiser Of late, when dealing
with the annexation bugaboo, is
again shown in it's leading editorial

to the performance OF any act OF a
decisive nature is as easy matter

roll off one OF the logs which are so
prominent objects in the scenery Of
his native heath. But, to stay by a
proposition, even after being desig-
mated as the settled policy OF the
