MEAN MANS RUSE.

New York Sun: A Third avenue ele-
waited train bound uptown was crowded
yesterday Afternoon when a man boarded
it at Fourteenth street. He staggered
into one Of the cars and looked for a
seat, but not one was vacant. Mumbling
to himself, the man reached into his hip
pocket, brought out a firecracker at least
ten inches long, and caressed it lovingly.
The passengers looke interested, but no.
body did anything. Presently the man
took out a match and made some unsuc-
cessful attempts to strike it. Men and
women in the n~eighborhood began to
look uneasy and those standing near
moved up the car.
The match flashed at last, and the man,
still snumbling, lighted the fuse and
placed the cracker on the floor. There
was a sizzle as the powder burned to-
ward the inside of the red cylinder, and
a stampede began at once.
A score of seats We're vacated, and the
man sat down on one and watched the
fuse burn. AS the spark reached the end
of the cracker everybody held his breath.
A moment later there was a little puff
of smoke and a slight pop, like that of a
putty blower, Then the man put the
cracker in his pocket and settled himself
back comfortably in the seat he had ac-
| CURED.
When the train reached Twenty-third
street he was asleep, and there had been
a redistribution Of seats.

IN frons of his crossroads store. there
was John Brunt, that lived for ten years
in the cyclone belt in Kansas. trying to
raise corn and mortgages and things like
that until he was able to borrow money
enough to get back to Maryland again
without walking more than half way.
John come right to me, and l let him have
a job on my farm at $40 a month, for he
was a hard worker and thrifty. AT the
end of the first year he had got the
Widow Aliens promise to marry him in
October and he rented a nice little farm
to begin business again on his own hook.
John was a widower himself, and being
a practical sort of a man, he went to
work right away putting the farm and
the house into shape. M day / hap
pened over his way, and found him dig
ging a hole in the back yard.
"'What's that for?' says L. walking
around and looking over things.
That's a cyclone cellar, Mr.. Biskum,'
say he.
"A cyclone cellar?' says 1, consider
ably astonished. What do you want a
cyclone cellar for? This amt Kansas

The Mt. Haggin Timber Is Once
More Blazing.
FAMED BY A HIGH WIND
The Flames Can Be Plainly Seen From

of Wood Destroyed.

The forest fire on Mt. Haggin broke out
again yesterday afternoon shortly before
2 O'Clock, and ragged for the remainder of
the day with terrible fury. During the
morning a strong wind was blowing and
the smouldering embers were famed into
a roaring %furnace, which reached across
the mountains for two miles or more. At
3 O'Clock the fire was at its zenith. At one
particular spot where the forest was
dense, fire SHOT in the air 200 feet or more.
and must have been th~ree-quarters of a
mile long. making a magnificent, although
destructive sight. as the trees went up in
flames like so much paper. Although
fully three miles from the city the terri
BILE speed Of the fire could be easily de-
tected with the naked eye and was watch
ed by hundreds of people from the west
ern part Of thecity, which commands
the best view of the mountain on which
the fire is raging. Several hundred addi-
t.onal cords Of wood were burned up yes
terday. 1t is a safe estimate in placing
the loss Of cut wood at $500 cords already.
and the end is not Yet in sight, besides
the thousands upon thousands of feet of
standing timber which have been Destroy
ed. The mountain side IS swept clean of
all timber and the fire is creeping up the
gulches onto the other mountain sides.
Several forces of men have heen fight
ing chs fire for a week, but their labors
have been IN vain. About the time they
have ii out a strong WIND starts it anew
until it is evident nothing Will ~eXtinguish
1t but a rain which may not come for sew
