 Before leaving he told the other men that if they could find a man who could run the gin and understood how to gin the cotton. they could run 1t. but if no' to shut it down. Mum was near, and he volunteered his. services. The machineru was started up and before a fourth of a bale was ginned, the sin became chked with lint. Mum used his hand to rem edy 1t, when the saws caught his coat sleeves jerking his hands and arms through. His body was thrown heavily against the gin and knocked the breast off and his forehead, face, chest and stomach were drawn over the sixty sharp saws. which were running at full speed. Every shrew of clothing. on the man 6 body was stripped of except his shoes and were wound around the parts of the gin so tightly that the machinery was stopped.
 When the employees got Mum out. he was more dead than alive. Many of his fingers were cut off, both arms were split open ten inches. while his body from his head to his stomach was cut and hacked by the sharp saws, hardly an inch of the space but what was cut and bleeding, Physicians were hurriedly called and the wounded man was carried home. So far, he is still alive. Nunn has a wife and two children. He is farmer living on the Snead place at Aurora.

That CIstern Font.


Hector Scribblitis Writeington, the
great heavyweight politician of the
Weekly Agitationist" was busy tell
ing the postofice clerk with postage
bill to come again, when "Stubbie"
dropped the seven-column form of
agate and pied" all but the column
rules!
For the same reason, the great pol
itician did not hear the foremans
remarks to "Stubbie" on this particu-
lar occasion. Neither did he know
that "Stubbie" much frightened and
crying softly to himself, did as he
was hidden, and threw the mess into
an old cistern in the rear Of the
office.
"That DANCED font O. type is all
wore out anyhow" apologized the fore
man, land we might jest as well git
rid of 'er now as anytime"
Thus 1t was that the battered type
in the cases Of Hector Scrlbblitis
Writeington's printing Office, began a
migratory life to the dark and hol-
low receptacle in the alley and thus
it was, also that the appellation "cis.
tern font" came into use in the Office
of the Weekly Agltationlst."
Ever and anon as Hector wrote his
heavy editorials, there filtered through
the doorway to his sanctum, some
laughing reference to that cistern
font" followed usually by the hyster-
ical giggle of the girl typos.
Hector Scribbilitis Writeington was
suspicious, and inclined to severity.
He invaded the realm of ink and
presses and snorted:
'Lemme see that 'cistern' type!"
Stubbie, who was at work on a pat
ent medicine reader, fell off his stool
into the lye-kettle in dead fright.
The typos were all in tremble, and
Foreman Gibbs heart stopped regis
tering, for Scribblitis was a furious
man when once aroused!
"Lemme see that 'cistern' font!" he
repeated, his eye blazing. "Lemme
see i'll"
The foreman stepped to a case of
type, the first he could reach and
pulled 1t forth!
tits good type, Mr.. Writeington."
he said meekly. There's Bills, the
grocer, won't have nothin' else in his
ads, and Boskins, the real estate
man"
"'Tis good type, isn't it," inter-
rupted the quickly appeased Serb
blitis, who did not know BREWER from
circus poster, when Foundry & Cos.
man comes again, I'll order another
lot of it,"
Entering his sanctum he wrote on
a memorandum slip:
"Order 200 pounds cistern font"
And underneath he added:
Good type, wears well, don't forget
IT."
"Stubbie" says he is going to quit
before Foundry e Cos. drummer
makes his semi-annual visit to the
'Agitationist" office.
The foreman isn't saying much. but
he is thinking Of trying job out
west for his health!
