Thinks His Legs Are Metal.

Suffering from the delusion that his
legs are made of metal and that they
will explode should they come in con
tact with any substance charged with
electricity, Michael Butler, thirty-six
years old, of 121 First place. Brook
lyn, attempted suicide by slashing his
throat with a razor.
After he had been attended by an
ambulance surgeon, Butler was taken
TO the Butler street station, where he
explained to the sergeant all about his
legs. In the Butler street court he
was held in 81 900 bail for examina
ton.

HORSE TOOK IMPRESSION,
And Farmer Sent the Measure to His
Dentist


1t was mean impulse that prompt.
ed Farmer Giles to stop plowing and
bend down for cigar stump which he
saw reposing amongst the rich, tawny
soil, and it was mischevious impulse
that prompted his horse to raise his
near hind foot at that very moment.
The result of these interesting, Co
incidences was that the farmer had
all his teeth kicked down his ihroat.
That evening he took pen and paper
and addressed hiyself to a dentist.
Dear sir" he wrote my mouth is
three and quarter inches across, and
about six inches from front to back.
1t is shaped like a horseshoe, toe for
ward You should be able to make me
a set of teeth from these self-measure-
ments; if not. l shall come to town" p"
And, strangely enough, that was
just what he had to do.

THEIR FIRsT MEETING.
Had Heard of Eeach other As Boys
But Met First As Old Men.

But Met First As Old Men.
That was a pleasant meeting a
night or two ago between Col. S. w.
Fordyce and Gen. a. B. Nettleton,
when by chance they ran across each
other at the New Miller. They had
never met before, but they had often
heard of each other and a meeting
had long been desired by each. They
enlisted from Ohio at the breaking
out of the Civil War, one in the First
Ohio and other in the Second. Both
were young men at the time and
knew of each other during those early
days. After the war was over they
again heard frequently of each other
through mutual friends, but by some
whim of fate it was left for them to
meet for the first time away down on
the Flo Grande and after passing
years had frosted the locks of each.
Their meeting the other night was
attended with many pleasures. and
even the bystanders smiled pleasantly
as they listened to these old veterans
of the Civil War recall incidents if
those stirring times, and with which
each was more or less familiar. Col.
Fordyce, as all know, is largely in
terested in the Valley country and
owns a controlling interest of the
stock in the Brownsville Railroad.
Gen Nettleton is also largely inter
ested in the Valley, and is president
of the Piper Texas Plantation Com
pany, whose holdings are but short
distance from town. He claims Chi
cago as his home, but spends the
principal part of his winters in the
Lower Rio Grande Valley. and is

Eye-glass comfort depends on three
conditions:-Careful selection of lenses
by an oculist, accurate grinding Of
lenses to the highest finish and accurate
adjustment of the lenses to each eye.
The latter important condition we con-
slider this the most difficult for the gen
eral optician to attain, on account of
the distance between the eyes and the
shape and size Of the nose vary in each
individual. The ART of accurate fitting
therefore becomes a scientific and me-
chanical combination, and in this
ART offer you the greatest induce
ments. Children's spectacles should be
frequently adjusted to their eyes as

adjusting receives our careful attention.
