How Messenger Boys Are Utilized as
Awakeners In New York,
AT 1 O'Clock the other morning well
dressed man strolled into one of the
uptown messenger Offices. He had been
dining out and evidently, from the rak
fish tilt to his opera hat, the dinner had
been success.
81 want messenger boy to come and
waken me in the morning
"What hour?' The clerk was all
business, for the request was not un-
usual
Seven o'clock. Eve got to catch a
train" he explained.
'.All right, sir; Z O'clock assured the
clerk
The man turned as he was going out
Of the door. ';.Have the boy hammer
the door hard" he cautioned. I'm a
dead one when get TO sleep, and Eve
got to catch that train Then he went
home and went to sleep with absolute
confidence.
The whistles were blowing Z o'clock.
A small boy in uniform hammered
with club, his 'swakener,'' on the
door of the man who had dined the
night before. "Get up in there!'' he
cried. Get up, you old sleepyhead"
! ''You go away from my door," comes
in sleepy tones from the room Its a
mistake I don't want to get up
..Oh,- yes, you do, my dodo Bird is
the fresh reply. And the tattoo on the
door goes on with redoubled strength.
All right, boy; Fm awake now'
howls the man who has been sleeping
you can go away now"
Not till you've signed this receipt
the boy insists.
The man has to crawl out Of bed and
come to the door. The boy has a paper
ready, and as he is a careful man he
reads before signing. 1t certifies that
he has been thoroughly wakened by
Messenger No. 49, and that he is moi
gong back to bed again that day.
"Is this a joker" he asks the boy.
| Nav. 'tain't no joke" replied the
messenger through his teeth. IF we'se
didn't make you'se do this. you'd bt

TRAVEL LIKE PRINCES.

FORE DoWIE is REACHED.

Pollock Progress: Little Ethel Nor
sfis, the 4-year-old daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs VIM. Morris, Of Dale, Em-
mons county, N. D., died early Satur-
day morning of diphtheria. The little
girl had been sick for nearly two
weeks, but, owing to the peculiar re-
.ligious views of her parents, no medi-
cal attendance was summoned. Two
other children in the family were also
sick with the same disease; but, after
the death of their sister, they We're
treated by DR.. Shockney and are now
recovering. The Morris are DoWle-
ties, and believe in healing by calling
divine aid-or, rather, aid from Dowie,
An attempt was made late Saturday
night by other Dowieites to send
telegram to Dowie, in Chicago, to
pray for the child, but the little girl
was dead before the message was sent
1t is to be sincerely hoped that this
sad example will put an end, in this
vicinity, to people pinning their faith
to the great Chicago impostor. Pub
lie sentiment is very strong here
against the practice of these people in
not calling a physician in case of Sc

ed in, the guilty ones will be made to
feel the force of the law.

If the Railway officials who fur
nished the special train which con-
yeyed H. r. H. Prince Henry of
Prussia on his tour OF the United
States desired to provide the finest
train which could be had in the coun-
try they should have called for q part
of the equipment Of the Pioneer

have ever been built which cost
as much, OF are as luxurious and hand
some as the sleeping, compartment
and buffet cars OF the Pioneer Limited.
