A CIRCUS MANS STORY
Restaurant Man Wins in a Brush With
 the Show Boss

From the New York Sun.
 You know I've told you," said the old circus man, "about how the old man was forever playing jokes on people in the towns we came to over the great giant; making contracts in advance for one thing and another for him, binding people to supply the things and called for at certain prices, turning up then with the giant. For instance, he would get some local shoema- ker to agree to make a pair of men s shoes for so much, the man to be meas ured when he came to town. Of course the shoemaker never dreamed of a man the size of the giant, and when he duly ap- peared the shoemaker would be duly dis mayed and the .whole business would be turned into an advertisement for the giant and the show; but it's only fair to say that the old man always did what was right be- fore he got through, and never let any body lose anything by him. On the other hand, he sometimes met people that got the better of them and from one of these. right after got the giant, he learned a lesson so very simple that he wondered he hadn't thought of it himself before.
 Going ahead of the show in a city where we were to stay week. the old man made with the proprietor of the big gest restaurant there contract for the board of one member of his company who was very particular about his food and at the same time a large eater, this contract requiring that the boarder should be sup piled with whatever he wanted that was in season. cooked to his fancy, and in any quantity that he might call for. We'll now, you know, the giant was a graceful enough eater, but my gracious. the quan- tity required to feed him was something prodigious; and, seriously, the mere cost of his board made a substantial item in the shows expenses But his coming to the restaurant didn't appear to disturb the restaurant keeper a bit; you'd have thought to see him that he'd been keeping a giants boarding house all his life
 ''He waited on the giant himself at the first meal he had there which was dinner, served in the middle of the day. The old man was along to see that his giant got enough to eat, which he did, in great plenty. At supper time the old man was busy and he sent me with the giant, com ing himself later. When he got to the restaurant he found crowd in the street in front and this sign hanging up over the restaurant door,
 * The Greatest of all Giants Boards Here, + < Taking His Breakfast at o'clock, ' His Dinner at II, * and His Supper at z o'clock Come in and See Him Eat 4 To all our regular Patrons no charge For Admission To All Others, 25 Cents. < . * <
 And they wouldn't let the old man in till he'd paid quarter.
 But the restaurant man turned out all right. He deducted the cost of feeding the giant and then divided those extra receipts with the old man, which was fair enough, end even after that, in every town we | struck where the giant ate at a restaurant, we used to make contracts on that basis :"

There are 100000 miles of copper wire used in telephone service in the United States, and 100000 calls are received daily in the telephone exchanges of the country. The wire would girdle the earth at the equator forty-eight times, or reach from the earth to the moon five times.
 Leaves can be rapidly and cleanly picked up from lawns by an Ohio wornans inven- tion which has large hopper mounted on wheels with fan blades set in the mouth or the hopper close to the ground to be rap idly revolved by gearing inside the wheels, mus flaming the leaves into the hopper.
 In Germany man has patented a read ing or writing desk which will be found convenient for use when standing, having a flat tablet formed of several sections hinged together, with braces and straps to hold the tablet in a convenient position for use, the whole folding in small compasses to be carried in the pocket
 In some experiments recently made at Gottingen Herr H. T. Simon discovered that electric sparks between terminals fol- low independent zigzag paths when the interval between them is more than about one four-hundredth of a second. When the sparks follow each other at more rapid intervals they pass over the same track.
