Chicago" be would be put to the mental
stress of imagining what kind of tele-
gram Henry Wilson ought to receive
that day. He made an effort to guess
as nearly as sanity would suggest, but
with such broad latitude, not know
ing who Henry Wilson was or who was
his correspondent, or in what line of
business either was-or, indeed, not
being able to swear that the message
was for man named Henry Wilson, and
not for woman named Hetty Thomp-
son-you will perceive that Sherwood
had severe time of it. But he tried to
be satisfied, despite the mental wear
and tear. He knew the fellow in New
York was in pretty hot water, too. He
realized that the Gothamite was under
going the same mental travail in trying
to conjecture up sequential statement
OF fact from some such gleamings as
"F-d-a-e-tt C-m-m-y-r-f-s-de = Will-m
Be"
A man not equipped with rubber
arm cannot keep up speed of As or so
words a minute and then turn in and
translate the sputterings of a crazy,
leaky, swinging line which is being
worked by an idiot in New York without
suffering. Ten days of this kind of
worry reduced Sherwood from 100 to
1873 pounds, and then his friends took
him in charge, for he was wandering
around town imprecating against in
solent donkeys in New York, and drivel-
ing about GXwyvzch and other combi-
nations of letters. They hired doctors
and kept him in a secluded, cool place
for three weeks, by which time he was
able to move abroad again, and in a
month he was in condition to resume his
Geographic functions. He went back
to his old wire, and, still rather pale and
shaky, started at his days work. He
sent with elaboration and frmness,
however, and was overjoyed to note,
when it came his turn to receive, that
the sender was likewise easy and firm
of touch, and there was scarcely any
trouble from the workings of the line.
After time pause came and the New
Yorker inquired:
"Are you the fellow who was working
this line five weeks ago."
Being answered in the affirmative the
man at distance continued: "Say, I've
just returned after being nearly
knocked out by brain fever on account
of trying to keep up fight with you.
Where was it / met you, and how did
you come to get grudge against me
When did you know me?"

swered the Chicagoan. 81 tried in a

Tried to Hide His Contempt.

This is an old story of Thad Stevens,
but it is so good that it will bear re-
peating: Stevens was once engaged in
trying case before judge noted for
his ignorance of the law. During the
course of the trial the judge made rul-
ing that greatly incensed Stevens, who
began to tie up his papers, his hands
trembling and his thin face suffused
with red. "Do 1 understand" asked
the court, shat you are trying to show
contempt for this court?" "No, SIR"
replied Stevens; 81 am not trying to
show contempt for this court. On the
contrary, / am doing my best to con-
ceal it."-Omaha World Herald.

Sir Frank Lockwood was ON one oc-

beasts?" "And how far off can you

Sir Frank and said: "Just about as
