Canadiagua outlet. $50 yards east of
the station at Manchester, at 1885
o'clock. when the Pullman car Austin,

All bumped over the ties a short
distance when the coupling between
the day coach and the rear end of the
diner broke. The forward end of the

day coaches plunged down the en-

Stopped tho Dreaming.

1t was custom among Canadian
Indians, when they dreamed of re-
ceiving favor from another, to APP
ply to him for its fulfilllncnt, and
whenever possible the conditions of
the dream were complied with.
A chief one morning came to Sir
William johnson, the governor, and
told him that he had dreamed that
his excellency had made him a pres
emit of the suit of regimentals which
he wore.
The governor Immediately agreed
to make the present asked for. but
as the chief was about 10 leave, told
him that he also had had dream.
to the effect that the chief had
given him certain large tract Of
land of his.
The chief was silent a moment.
"Well, you shall have it" he then
said. E'But if you please. Sir Will

Women's Love Of Dress.

The real defense for women in
their growing love for dress seems
to us to be this-that dress is a rec
reation, one Of those natural recre-
ations which grow out of necessity
and out Of everlasting emotions. It
is nothing against a recreation that
the frivolous rich suffer from over
indulgence in it or the frivolous
poor from that craving for it which
has its roots in privation. The love
of dress among women-especially,
we think, in its modern manifesto
ton, which emphasizes variety
makes, we believe, for social bal

eoIsoN's TRIUMPH.
An Incident In che Great Inventors
Struaale For Recognition.


DR.. Noryin Green, for many
years president of the Western
Union Telegraph company, once
said that but for the dullness Of
himself and his assistants Thomas
A. Edison might never have OBJ
tanned the confidence and support
of the great corporation. Edison
had been trying for months to in
duce the officials to take up some Of
his inventions until they began to
regard him as bore.
He went to the main Office one
day and was greeted by DR.. Norvin
Green and the other officials with
smiles DR.. Green said: "Mr Edi-
son, we are unable to get into com
munication with Albany, and q
large amount of important business
is in peril. l suppose that since you
know more about telegraphy than
all of the rest Of us combined you
can locate the difficulty"
Whether Edison noticed the BAN
tering tone or not, he quietly an
swered, II can locate it inside of
two or three hours, sir"
DR.. Green and the others laughed
outright, one of them saying, "Edi-
son, you have now fully demonstrat-
ed that YOU are crank"
Edison never smiled or addressed
word to the speaker, but looked
at DR. Green and said, eff I locate
this difficulty in two or three hours.
will YOU take up my inventions and
give them honest considerations"
eyes, I WILL" said DR.. Green,
"and will do it if you succeed in
two DAYS"
1t was a very simple thing, and
yet Edison was the only one who
had the comprehensive mind to
think Of it instantly. He did not
tell them for many years afterward
how he accomplished the feat, but
he did it inside of one hour.
Edison went to the main offices,
where he was known as an expert
operator, and called up Pittsburg.
He asked for the best operator
there, naming him, and then told
the Pittsburg man to call up the
best man at Albany and direct him
to telegraph down the line toward
New York as far as he could and
report back to Edison as soon as
possible Inside of an hour Edison
had this telegram:
II can telegraph all right down
to within two miles of Poughkeep-
sic, and there is trouble with the
wire there"
Edison went back to the office
of the president and gravely an
nounced that if train should be
sent to Poughkeepsie with mate
rails for the work they would find
a break in the line just two miles
on the other side of Poughkeepsie
and could repair it that afternoon.
They begged him to tell how he
had found it out, and he replied:
'sBy knowing more about tele-
graphing than all of you put to-
gether, as DR.. Green has said"
They located the break, repaired
it, and DR.. Green took up Edison's
inventions, and that was Edison's
great start in life.

CATCHING HERRlNGs.
Practically tn. Same Methods Used
For . Thousand Years.

The Lowestoft fishermen say that
the method Of catching aerrings
has scarcely changed during the last
thousand years or more ard that
their nets must be tie same IN prln-
ciple as those which were employed
before Richard the Lion Hearted
and his Crusaders sailcd for the
Holy Land. The statement has
much of truth in ii, and when we
drift at our nets on the loncly sea,
with our great lamplikc riding light
burning steadily anlidshils, sc pre-
sent much the same spectacle that
could have been witness sod many
centuries ago. 1t was at night when
the herrings were caught, and night
on the vast and melancholy waste
of water hides that modcrnitv
which only day reveals. There are
other riding lights and here and
there the masthead and side lights
Of steamer going north or south,
but the steel and iron hulls are only
guessed BY some chance glimmer
from port or deck house.
And the men have changed but
little surely! Their dress for work
is primitive, hiding all that is sng-
gestive of the modern landsman.
There is a jumper which the skip
per and crew wear-a garment made
of stout canvas and barkctl with the
sail cloth. 1t covers the arms and
trunk nearly to the knees, almost
as the coarse smock CARRIED the serf
of old, and the men Of his rank
who would alone in those days 90

long variety is like a nightdrcss.
Its short form is generally favored,
but shippers often use the long gar
ment, as the covering keeps the cold
out, and shippers, being leaders.
have spare time in which to feel the
drafts that invade all unprotected
crevices. There are rough, thick
wooden stockings and boots which

indian Summer.

Indian summer in North America
is period of mild, balmy weather
usually occurring in November
characterized by clear sky and a
hay or smoky atmosphere, espe-
cially near the horizon. The name
is derived from the custom among
the Indians Of using this delightful
time to harvest their corn. Accord
ing to one of their traditions, they
always had a second summer of nine
days just before the winter set in.
Indian summer corresponds to a
similar season prevailing during the
late autumn in England and the
Mediterranean countries, called est
Martins summer" from st. Mar
