PAWNED HIS EYE.

New York Press: "A business man from
Baltimore found himself in a peculiar
predicament the other day. He sleeps
with his glass eye in a tumbler, and there
a friend found it one morning. The sight
suggested a practical joke-put the eye in
Mr.. KS Overcoat pocket. Done! When
the friend departed, being short of money
for the moment he pawned his own over
coat for $40. In the afternoon there came
an urgent telegram from Mr.. X, who had
been unable to leave his room on account
of the missing eye, n whose frame Of
mind was all distorted and warped. The
friend frankly confessed:
Bill, l meant it only as a simple joke.
You will find your eye in your overcoat
pocket But 1T was not there.
1T must be, because 1 put it there my
SELF urged the joker. The coat was held
up by the tail and shaken.
BY thunder | wonder if I could have
put it in my own coat?"
Where's your coat?'
i've paWned it; / didn't want to bor-
row and needed a few dollars"
How much is it in for?'
Ten dollars"
Mr.. x produced $40 and the coat was
redeemed. The eye was in the inside
pocket. He carefully washed it, slipped il
place and walked out after - hours
OF solitary confinement.

DIED IN A CHAIR.

r. d. McMahan, aged about IS years,
a native of Ireland, died in his chair to-
day noon at the Flood house at Carroll.
He was sitting in a room with several
other men. They noticed him stretch out
and his head fall back. Upon going to
his side he was found dead. A telephone
message was sent to the sheriff's office
and Coroner Hardenbrook was sent down
and ordered his remains removed to
Ehret's undertaking p~arlors. McMahan
conducted q saloon in Anaconda five
years ago. OF late he has been drinking
heavily. Every effort to brace him up
has proved a failure. He was single. F.
F. McMahan is his cousin. He came from
a good family in the old. country. He
has six brothers who are good business
men. He also leaves two sisters and an
aged father. An inquest will be held this

HEARD FORTY MILES

Philadelphia Record: A whistle has
been constructed at the Atlanta Milling
Company's mill, Atlanta, Ca, which is
audible at Macon, 80 miles distant. Il IS
eight feet in height and consists Of three
bells OF special composition Of bronze and
bell metal, arranged between two disks
OF steel. The larger bell has the mouths
turned downward; a three inch pipe con-
veys the steam through shallow openings
IN the circula disk. The bells are tuned
to an eighth and a fifth of a chord, and
harmonize as accurately as the best tun-
ed piano. Through the peculiar arrange
ment of the gongs they chime with the
accuracy Of a set Of well-tuned bells. and
the vibrations are such that the sound
OF the whistle is not l,ersh, but soft and
low, and yet of such power that it can
be heard for 10 miles. The amount of
steam required to sound the bell would
run a 10-horse power engine. Two steel
wire cables are required to open and close
the conical valves, operated by a pulley,
that admits the steam.

he was about to say, "Oh. anything you
have left" when his wife whispered to the
carver: The neck: he dearly loves it.; he
hasn't eaten n any other part these 20
years" When they got homo he said to
her: MY dear, I have been sacrificing
my taste for a long. long time, n had
an idea that the sacrifice was appreciated.
But you have grown callous. 1t is bad
