COON ON A
RAMPAGE
Makes Desperate Attempt 10
Carve Bartender Nc Fadden
With a Knife

Scarcely had Andrew Edwards, a
vicious negro. come from without the
shadow OF the penltentiary, where he
has lust completed term OF two
years for carving a man at The
Dalles. when he attempted TO repeat
the act with David McFadden. the
night bartender for w. X. Anderson.
and he is now languishlng behind
prison bars. with the chance OF serv-
ing another term In the penltentlary
staring him In the face.
The negro was intoxicated when
he entered the saloon. placed a nick
el on the bar and ordered glass OF
beer. When MoFadden placed the
drink before him and rang the mon
ey up on the register the negro be-
came enraged. and said he had not
ordered the drink. lie grabbed the
lapel OF McFadden's coat, and jorked
out his knife and, IN getting away
from his enraged assailant. the bar
coat was torn into shreds. and COM
pletoly on McFadden's back. The
trouble was then called on by the
coon, and order restored. when.
without warning. the negro started
behind the bar after McFadden. with
his pocket knife drawn, swearing he
would kin him..
Mr.. McFadden was forced 20 run
for his life. and for some time the
negro had full possession OF the sa-
loon. At that time customer en-
tered, and. seeing the negro with a
vlllalnous looking knife in' hia hand
and McFadden at bay in the rear
room. sent In call for the police.
Before officers arrived. however, the
negro had made his escape. but was
later located hiding In the manger
OF a box stall In the John Doyens
stable, and taken into custody by
onicers Longeor and Buslck.
when tho negro entered Doyens

Tests Of the wireless telegraph systems
are to be made by the Navy department to
determine, IL possible, the cause OF the
many failures to receive and to send mes
sages at sunrise and sunset. Repeated tests
have shown this to be the case, and II ls
said that the navy operators were the first
to make the discovery OF this strange and
important phenomenon.
Just why the power Of the wireless appa-
ratus and the sound waves should be at
the lowest ebb at sunset or at sunrise op-
orators may not be dificult to ascertain, for
1t has long been known that messages can
be sent by the system at night 20 per cent
better than in the daytime, especially when
the sun is shining. There is what is termed
FRACTIONAL dissipation Of energy in trans
mission by day. II is also known that
foggy weather is more favorable for send
ing and receiving wireless messages than
clear weather, so naval officers familiar
with electrical subjects believe they will
soon be able to locate and remedy the all
legged defect at sunrise and sunset.
Commander Thomas W. Ryan and Lieu
tenant Jackson, U. s. N, who are in
charge Of the wireless equipment at the
Brooklyn navy yard. intend to make tests
at once.

existing styles OF electric locomotives In
that It Is operated by the alternating cur
rent single phase system. weighing sew
enty-eight tons, II is calculated TO draw a
train of $50 tons at an average speed OF
seventy miles per hour.
The locomotive is equipped with devices
for collecting both alternating and direct
current. For the latter there are eight
collecting shoes, four on each side Of the
locomotive. arranged in pairs OF two each.
There are, Of course, two pairs on each
side, one at each end. for the purpose OF
bridging such gaps as are necessary In the
third-rail system. There must be shoes on
each side as the locomotive must be able
to make contact with the third-rall when
turned end about. These direct-current
contact shoes must also be able.to work on
two forms OF third-rail, one In which the
shoe runs under the rail and the other
where the shoe runs ON top of the rail The
locomotive is provided with a paragraph
TO conform with certain New York Central
requirements.
For collecting alternating current the To-
connective is provided with two paragraph
type high tension bow trolleys. Each trolley
has capacity to carry the total line cur
rent under average conditions, but two
are provided TO insure reserve capacity.
The mechanical construction of the To-
connective presents many novel and inter-
esting features which deserve special con-
sideration. The running gear consists Of
two trucks. each mounted on four sixty
two-inch driving wheels. The length OF the
wheel base Is eight feet. The side frames
are Of forged steel and to them are bolted
and riveted the pressed steel bolster carry
ing the center plate. The weight on the
Journal boxes is carried by semi-elllptic
springs with auxiliary coiled springs under
the ends of the equalizer bars to assist
in restoring equilibrium. The holsters are
thirty inches wide at the center plate and
are widened, where boted to the side
frames, to nearly double this amount, thus
giving a very strong construction without
excessive weight. The center plate which
transmits the tractive effort to the frame
Is eighteen inches in diameter and will be
fabricated to permit a perfectly free mo-

Owing to the fact that the entire space

motors It was impossible to transmit the
drawbar pull through the center line of the
locomotive in the usual way. Instead Of
this strong plate Orders heavily cross
braced are carried outside OF the wheels
ana the entire strain of the drawbar is
carried to these through strong box girders
having top and bottom plates forty-two
inches wide. Directly underneath the Cir

Bearded the Tiger.

Twenty years ago. in the days Of the
wagon show. the feature OF the parade was
a "murderous. mutiiating, man-eating''
tiger, which the "dauntless, daring, devil
may-care" trainer held by a chain on the
top OF the cage. This sight filled beholders
OF the parade with awe and admiration. for
the tiger opened its jaws and yawned in
vitingly and tugEed at the chain in the
trainers iron hand" But one day the
trainer fell sick and there was no one else
who dared take that tiger out OF the cage.

Upon the death of Barnum in 1891 Bailey
purchased all the rights to the circus. Since
that time he reigned alone in his world.
His greatest delight was the making Of OBJ
stacles so that he might have the pleasure
Of surmounting them. He invariably chose
the most difficult routes for the circus that
he could. After the route schedule for the
season was completed he would carefully
go over 1t and ada dirhcult jumps. Just to
show" as he was wont TO say. now clev-
erly we can make them"
Bailey was action personifed After the
death Of Barnum he jumped out OF bed In
the dead OF the night, called meeting Of
the directors, whom he had likewise aroused,
and purchased all their stock In the circus
on the spot. He did a similar thing two
years ago when the Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers circus, of which he was a part
owner, was advertised for sale at auction
In Columbus, o. This sale was ordered
after the death Of Peter Sells which left
the show without a managerial head.
How much am / bid for the circus as a
whole?" asked the auctioneer.
'Ons hundred and nifty thousand dollars"
said Bailey.
There was no second bid. He got the en-
tire circus His rivals we're soTely vexed
by his action and plainly told him so.
IAN right" said Bailey TO them. I'm
sell you fellows a half interest" This he
did.
II was by just such actions as this that
Bailey brought peace into the warning cir
Gus sphere. He was at one and the same
time a partner in Barnum & Bailey's cir
Gus. In FOrepaugh & Sells Bros circus and
in Buffalo Bilrs Wild west show. BY thus
mediating among them he was able 10 keep
all animosity from asserting itself. He
thus. moreover. destroyed the hghtlng spirit
and placed all circus affairs on a solid 5usi-
ness basis.
Among BaHeys personal maxims were
these:
Every man should be his own Society
for the Prevention Of Cruelty to Animals"
Don't dock a man for being siok-he
can't help It,"
"CanvaEmen have hearts and feelings just
like men with millions
Keep your good attractions. In the cir
Gus game there should be no such word as
sale"
Don't rpeak In the future tense-say
have done. not am going 20 do"
SWEARING doesn't put life into the other
fellow ana It takes II out OF you"
"A man can do anything IL he really
wants 20 do H."
Bailey had solue remarkable rules for
the guidance OF a circus man. and to the
strict observance ~ them he attributed
his own rema-kab,e success. For in

Buying Jumbo.

One day Bailey selected Joseph Lee
Warner. a former mayor OF Lansing. TO go
abroad and see what sort of attraction he
could find. He came back practically
empty-handed.
What was the biggest thing you saw
over on the other stde?' asked Bailey.
We'll" answered Warner after long
thought Il think the greatest thing I saw
was an elephant in the London Zoo"
GO back and buy hiTn," said Bailey
Warner went over and came back with
the elephant. which was thereafter known
all over the country as Jumbo" Bailey
advertised Jumbo. 1t was Jumbo this and
Jumbo that until every man. woman and
child in the country had heard OF him.
His removal from London was made an
international incident. Jumbo had become
one OF the sights OF the British capital. and
they made big fuss when he departed.
Bailey paid $1,000 for him. The day I'm
1889 that Jumbo walked up Broadway and
then across the Brooklyn bridge and bach.
thousands OF people turned out 10 see HIM.
Everybody talked about Barnums Jumbo.
He was In reality Bailey's Jumbo, for
