40 HANDS OR FEET,
STILL ENJOYS LIFE.
Was Victim Of q Blizzard Of 'ee
.-Story Of His Fight to Reach
I Shelter

Although he eats and drinks with
care and dresses without assistance,
Arthur murray. of Portland, Ore.,
who was in Pittsburg recently, has
neither hands nor feet. The men,
bers had been frozen in a Canadian
blizzard and their amputation could
not be avoided.
Murray is one of the happiest men
on earth. His humor is sincere. He
is glad he does not have limbs that
are racked with rheumatism. To the
man glum with brooding over i'll fate
Murray's magnetic, uplifting conver-
sation always puts things In a more
cheerful light.
Recently this man started giving
lectures in small towns, He appears
in tights showing the arms extending
just below the knees, then proceeds
to dress after applying his artificial
members. Fully attired he can run
and even dance a bit and swings
along the street with careless grace.
Knives, forks, spoons. matches.
hooks, pens or the like are easily
slipped into openings provided in the
wooden wrists, which practice has
enabled him to govern accurately.
The hooks. handy in dressing, are
used more than any Of the other at
tachments.
Murray says that in the forty-one
years of his life he has never taken
q drink, but he chews plug tobacco
incessantly He seldom smokes, dis
liking to handle fire. He tells an in
teresting story of his life, which fol-
lows in part.
Like every one else, learned tho
benefit of my blessings only after |
lost them. In the big blizzard that
swept some of the Northern States
and Manitoba on January -, 1888,
there were manypitiful deaths among
teachers, school children and settlers.
In Omaha a school teacher named
Miss Freeman lost her four limbs
Just as | did. When the roof was
blown from over the heads of the
children huddled inside the school
house she had the presence of mind
to tie the children together instead
of turning them out to seek their
homes separately. That would have
been sure death.
after fastening them in pairs she
connected all with strips torn from
her underskirts and started the line
with the oldest in the lead, to the
nearest home, half mile distant.
She brought up the rear and picked
up some that fell. A Dakota school
master sent his pupils to their death
in the storm and remained himself by
the fire, keeping comfortably warm

IN DENVER'S ELECTRIC AIR.
All the Trolley Cars Stop When 0
Thunderstorm Comes On.

There is one city in this country
where motormen and conductors OF
trolley cars don't mind bit when
they see a thunderstorm approach
ing, because it means that they can
have a rest and won't be called down
for being behind their schedule. Thai
city Is Denver.
The atmosphere Of Denver Seems
to have an extra supply of electricity
and whenever they have an electric
storm there 1t is apt to play hob with
dynamos and anything that runs elec'
trically. For that reason 1t is a rule
of the street car company that at the
first sign of lightning every car must
stop and stay right where it is until
the electric display has ceased.
1t is common sight in Denver to
see the street cars stalled all about
the streets before the pavements arc
even wet. On these occasions the
motormen and conductors settle
themselves comfortably, read the
newspapers and enjoy themselves.
So do most of the passengers. who
haven't the impatience of the East
But it's the employees who really have
the snap, for 1t means good rest fol
them.-New York Sun.
