Joiner-please sir, I've brought the
table you ordered me to make.
Customer-Well, put it down here.
my man, and let's see what sort of
Job you've made of it.
The man set it down in the middle of
the room, and the customer examined
it with the air of a critic.
Customer-Why, my man, there is
here crack filled up with putty.
Joiner-Yes, sir. Well, sir. ] know
about that. but it won't be noticed
when it sets hard.
Customer Coming across some more
putty)-But here's some more, my man.
What is the meaning Of this?
Joiner-Well, sir you see, little bit
of wood clipped off the corner, and l
just put little putty there to fill up.
1t won't do no harm, sir, when it's set
hard.
Customer binding some more putty

In the middle of this leg. What can
you say about that?
Joiner scratching his head and try
ing hard to find some excuse by which
to retrieve his honor)-Well, sir, that's
no harm whatever. and the putty when

than the wood. So. you see, 1t will be
all the better if You wait bit. sir.

CLEMENCY.
Pomeroy Expects II
From Mayor Doyle.
As the Result of Plan He's
Just Formed.

James Pomeroy, an aged soldier, who
lives at the Soldiers Home at San
dusky, and who comes to Akron to Wis
il and vote, has plan which he be
lieves will do him much good. He
called at the Poor Directors Office
this morning and drawing from his
pocket, "a bunch of Mayor Doyle's cam
paign cards, said to Uncle Joe: Here.
keep these SO they don't get lost; will
doubtless call for them again"
To reporter for the Democrat, Mr..
Pomeroy explained: Il usually get a
little too much liquor when | come
here to visit, and generally land before
the Mayor. Usually the Mayor soaks
me as bad as the liquor does, and for
my own protection, I've originated a
plan. Every time l come here, I'll
carry Mr. Doyle's cards in my pocket,
and when l get run in and yanked be-
fore His Honor, I'll just show him
his cards. This will cause him TO know
| was his friend and did all l could
for him. Then he surely wouldn't
have the heart to soak me bad"
"Oh, you're only talking, Iim," said
Assistant Poor Director Manderbac'i;
"come on, and I'll see you get started
home all right"
Pomeroy was then given car fare 10
Cleveland, and he started through The
door, his last words admoniSnils I'm
clc Joe to be careful of the Doyic
cards.

RAMBLE:,
Enjoyed by One of the Bear
Cubs at Silver Lake.
Especial Correspondence.)


Cuyahoga Falls, April 19.-One OF
the bear cubs at Silver lake park was
permitted to enjoy the freedom Of the
park yesterday. After playing about,
climbing trees and performing other
antics, it managed to escape from the
park and was absent for nearly half
day.
All the places visited by the cub
during its ramble are not Known, but
1t apparently received no rough treat
ment, for somebody tied a red ribbon
around its neck. When found, the
cub was playing in the road near the
entrance to Randolph park.

the sole, agent in diverting hail.
MastfR Lost Further Interest.

Some careful experiments were carried on
in Austria during the early spring, men,
ton of which may also be of interest at
this point. The experts who attended the
exhibition could plainly see the wind rise
from the mouths of the tunnels with light
ming rapidity, possessing all the aspects of
a shot When large cannon were used,
whistling could be heard for twenty to
twenty EIGHT seconds. The most marked
effects, however, were produced by hori-
Zontal shots. For the experiments, shields
built of thick paper and linen were placed
at intervals of forty, sixty, eighty and 100
yards from the mouth of the cannon.
When the circle of wind EMBODIED these
shields the heavy linen and paper were
torn from the frames, the solid posts and
from eighteen to twenty-five yards, while
large mastif standing near was lifted
into the air and after turning several rap
i'd SomerSaults hurled against the ground
with such force that his interest in cloud
shooting demonstrations was effectually
dispeled
1t is calculated that these artificial whirl-
winds carry their energy to a height of
1,6OO to 1000 yards, thus accounting for
creation of the wind, the explanation is
that the air circulating in the mouth of
the funnel is set in motion by the explo-
sion Of the powder and hurled forth in
ball that expands upon leaving the funnel
until its full force is reached some distance
overhead. In actual operation rapid firing
is avoided. Its effect being to diminish the
force of the wind The shooting must be
done during the quiet preceding the storm.
Only quick matches or fuses should be
used percussion caps and similar inven-
tons being barred.

sprockets is also past, and "a, %, 26-tooth
will be the regulation. Some of the new
wheels Will have sprOcketS much thinner
than formerly, and on one Of the principal
makes the sprocket will be but Is of an
inch in thickness between the chain pieces.
The change is very marked to the eye
as against the IA and the 3-16-inch
sprocket, and it looks very neat, using u
very narrow chain.
ION one or two OF the new models the
crank hanger has been heightened to and
regulation size now, with 7 1-2 for an OPP
ton, and 1t will be interesting to observe
how the wheelmen will take to the length
ened crank. The drop Of the frame,
Of course, has been raised an inch or two
in these wheels, otherwise the crank hang
would strike the ground. A decided LEI
verage will be given which will count much
on the level and very much in hill climb
ing, and will also permit Of the use of
high gears. which would be too difficult
to push with a short crank.
Several of the large dealers will produce
two grades Of chain wheels, one at about
20 to % pounds for lightweight riders and
another at "a pounds for any weight. This
division will be acceptable one to thd
riding public, now the makers turn OUT
but one weight as a rule, for the thin and
fat.
There will be no reduction Of prices on
the standard makes this season, and they
will range from $40 and $50 for chain and
$50 and SIS for the chainless. The manu-
facturers have agreed not to cut pricesl
cities in the country, and the dealers are
looking forward to a good season, which
opens early here on account of the fine as !
phalt streets"
