him on a truck on the station platform.
The man took it so nonchalantly that
il occurred to Walsh that he might be
making a mistake. He accordingly
went back to the passenger and told
him he might get aboard again. "All
right" said the passenger. Il didn't
get on the train and theoretically I'm
still riding. In the nature Of things I
cannot well board a train upon which

The residence OF Coroner Paris In
the southwestern part Of Birmingham,
Ala, was badly damaged yesterday
afternoon in a most peculiar manner,
a big hole being cut through one side
by a shot from an old stump. During
the tornado which recently swept the
south side Of the city two huge trees
were blown down on the Paris place
and yesterday afternoon Coroner Paris
employed a negro TO remove the fallen
trees, which were 200 feet from the
house. The negro sawed the trees up
leaving the stumps cut on short and
partly buried In the ground. One OF
these stumps, a big oak affair leaned
over, pointing directly toward the
house. The negro wanted to blow this
stump 10 pieces, and to this end he
bored a 2-inch hole In it from the side
and then inserted a stick Of dynamite.
The hole was then closed up and the
charge exploded With the explosion
Of the dynamite the heart Of the oak
stump shot from its place like a can
non ball and flew straight for the
house. striking it broadside aud boring

stump was uniniured. except that the
heart was removed, and after the ex-
