BOOK NOTICES.
Wednesday the Tenth: A Tale of
the South Pacific. By Grant Allen. 12mo,
cloth, 75 cents. Boston: D. Lothrcp Com
pany. A good story of the sea and shore is
the latest tale by Grant Allen, a thrilling
story of filial devotiou,daring endeavor and
adventure, hair-breadth escape, miscalcu
lation in reckoning and a dramatic rescue
just in the nick of time. Mr. Allen, how
ever, is not over-sensational; he does not
strain for etTect or pile on the agony for his
climax; his narrative, on ihe contrary,reads
like a sober i-eaznaoN tale, its action flows
evenly and clearly, and though it stirs the
blood and atisorbs all the attention of the
reader, all its happenings are logical and
even its climax is but a sober fact
Webster’s International Dictionary

authentic edition of Webster's Unabridged
Dictionary, comprising the issues of 1804,
1&79 and 1884, now thoroughly revised and
enlarged under the supervision of Noah
Porter, D. D., LL. D., of Yale University.
With a voluminous appendix. Springfield,
Mass.: G. &C. Merriam & Cos., publishers,
1890. 2,118 pp. $lO to $lB, according to
style of i indiug. A notable event this year
is the publication of Webster’s International
Dictionary. This is the “Unabridged”
(which has bed so wonderful
a popularity with the American
public) entirely revised and enlarged,
making anew book. It would be impossi
ble to reckon the solid satisfaction th&t lias
been felt in the possession of the “Un
abridged it has been an efficient helper in
the search after light; it has provoked many
to become students. But this new volume
in its amplified form is still more valuable.
Report has stated from time to time during
the past ten years, that a volume was iu
process of construction, but so great has
been the undertaking that the publishers
did not dare to fix a time when the book
would be finished. Ex-President Porter, of
Yale University, who edited the “Un
abridged,” has rope-vised the construction
of the International. He Las been aided by
over 10(1 paid literary laborers and numer
ous voluntary contributors. More than
$300,000 was expended before the first vol
ume was printed. No one but must feel a
pride in this grand work. It has such solid
worth in it. Its possession will yield a sat
isfaction to the student that he could not
get by expending the same sum of money
in any other way. The publishers are to
be congratulated on their exhibition of lit
erary faith, on the unflagging pertinacity
with which they have prosecuted their work,
and on the worthy results they have pro
duced.
They Never Speak as They Pass By.
There are two senators who never inter
rupt each other in debate, says the Wash
ington correspondent of the Globe-Demo
crat. They do not speak to each other.
They belong to the same party, and, being
strong, positive men, they coma m contact
frequently. But each ignores the other’s
existence. Of course, a story is behind cr
beneath this strained situation. The two
senators were members of a little poker
playing party some time ago. Other sen
ators were in the game. All ware playing
for recreation. The stakes were not large.
Late in the night one of the party,
making an excuse to step out, obtained an
old deck of cards aDd selected four aces.
Returning he had pasted the baud to a sen
ator, who in turn transferred tbe cards to
a third. Alt were in the plot except the
senator who was to be made the victim.
The senator who held the four aces waited
till there was a pot of $0 or $7 up, and then
laid down bis hand. Everybody smiled
except the victim. He threw upon the table
his cards, which included two aces, and be
foreanybody could interfere raised his chair
and brought it down with a ensh on tbe
head of the senator who had played the
stocked hand. He was about to follow the
blow, when the rest of the party interfered.
It was all they could do to restrain him.
Each tried to explain that it was all a joke,
but the more they talked the worse they
made tbe situation. To this day the sena
tor who played the four aces anti the senat >r
upon whom they were played remain un
reconciled. And the senator who perpe
trated the joke has not played a game of
poker since that unfortunate nigut. Soho
says.

THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, OCTOBER 20. 1800.
TRICKY NIGHT OPERATORS.
How Railroad Telegraphers Used to
Gat Little bleeps.
From the .Vetr York Tribune.
The mo-t undesirable work and the least
remunerative suing telegraphers is that of
night operator at some lonely station on a
railroad. The rules of the company require
that these men shall remain awake at their
posts from 7 p. m. till 7 a. m. to report nam
ing trains and to receive and deliver such
order* as it may be necessary to convey to
engineers and conductors to regulato'the
movement of their trains.
On double-track roads their presence at
their posts is of great importance only in
emergencies, and to be sure that they are
always on baud a system of signaling is in
vogue on most roads by which every opera- I
tor is required to report by wire to head
quarters every half-bour during the night, i
On the Central railroad of New Jersey fif- ■
teen years ago the headquarters cf the night
despatcher were at E izabetb. the wire signal
of the office being “K. I.” Every half-hour
ia the night the despatotier’s operator would
sound on the wire the signal “Six, six, six,
K. L,” and eacn operator on the line from
New Jersey to Phillipsburg would have to
sound his office signal in turn, beginning
with “J. C-” and endiug with “P." If all
the responses came tbe < perator at “K. I."
would say “O. K.” and another half hour
of dreary silence would intervene. *
The operator at Somerville wus on terms
of intimate friendship with tbe one at
Hampton junction, and they arranged to
sound each other’s signals on alternate
nights so that the one for whom the other
acted could sieep. Each, however, had to
attend to the reuorting of the trains that
passed his station. The station at Somer
ville was betwee i the north and the south
bound tracks, and the operator there in
vented an ingenious device by which he
could go to sloep, and yet be' awakened
whenever a train should pass.
Taking two stout cords he ran one out
over the window and under the pdatform to
one of the laiisof the south-bound track,
to which he tied it. Tbe other was run in a
similar wav and tied to the north-bound
track. Inside the office he made a loop iu
each of the cords at a convenient hight.
Leaning back iu bis chatr, with his head
pillowed on a shelf, he put his right foot
through one loop and his left through the
other, both fuet beiug about on a level with
his Head.
Then he slept. A north bound train came
along, cut tbe string, and his left toot fell
down with a jerky suddenness that would
have thrown him out of the chair had not
his other foot been tied. Then a message
would go to headquarters like this: “S. O;
K. I. N. 6.. No. 23, ong. 45, 1:18 a. in.,”
meaning that Somerville reported north
bound train No. 28, drawn by engine No.
45, passing at 1:18 a. m.
The string was tied to the rail again, an
other loop made, aud the operator soon was
dreaming once more. If the left foot fell it
was a north-bound train, if the right one a
south-bound, a glance at the clock showing
what train was due according to tbe sched
ule.
Auotbar operator used to fill a coal scut
tle w ith coupling plus, old 6craps of iron
and tin, an fasten it high from the floor to
a string tied to the rails. When a tram
cume along the rcuttle would fall with a
crash loud enough almost to be heard at
tbe dispatcher’s headquarters.
On the belvidere Delaware division of
the Pennsylvania road, where balloon sig
nals are used, ajch devices are not'ivaiiable
and the operators must remain awake
every moment of the long night. The
“Ben De., u as it is called, is a single-track
road, and orders are frequent during the
night to regulate the movement of trains.
It is over this division that tbe Pennsyl
vania's heavy coal trade is brought down
to Trenton and Perth Amboy. The balloon
sign*! is an oblong hullo w canopy made of
red flannel ued kept iu shape by circular
iron hoops. By a double cord attachment
connecting with the operator’s table it cau
be lowered or raised at will.
If lowered, it is a danger signal that no
train dares to pass. If raised, tbe signal is
“no ordsis: go ahead on schedule time.”
At night a white lantern is hung under tbe
balloon, which, when lowered, shows a red
light through the red flauaol. If raised, the
white light shows, signalling tnat every
thing “is all right.”
The orders of the company are that tie
ballcon must be kept down at all times, day
and night, showing the red signal, and only
raised when a train approaches for whioh
no orders have been received. Thus a ter
rible responsibility falls upon the operator
who has complete control of the signal. It
he receives an order for a train and forgets
it, or becomes confused and raises tbe sig
nal, tbe result is sure to be a collision.
Fortunately, the operators on that divi -
ion are faithful men, who evidently never
slept on duty. Perhaps a sense of the re
sponsibility keens them awake. The oper
tor at Washington’s crosung, just above
Trenton, nearly a score of years ago, was a
young boy, who could not resist the tempta
tion to ruu about to picnics aud on excur
sions during the day. Asa rule he was
most powerfully inclined to sleep at night.
Twice he did so and was the i dis 'ha ’ge t.
The first occasion resulted in the wreck of a
coal train, and tbe other in breaking a
freight train jn two. The coal train stopped
on the heavy grade, seeing the signal down,
and the engineer, earning In for orders,
found the boy soiiDd asleep. He woke him
roughly, and in deep anger started again
for bis engine.
Being angry, he started up too quickly
and broke up a coupling on the tenth err,
the engine and the ten cars s:artiog down
the grade very fast. "Off brakes” had been
whistled and the second section coming on,
crashed into the first, piling up a dozen cars.
Almost the same thing happened to tha
freight, and th > operator was allowed to
look for a day job—on some other road.
TOADS IN ROCK 6,
A Well Authenticated Story Com ng
from Mermondotn.
From the Salt Lake Herald.
Many well-authenticated stories of the
finding of live toads and frogs in solid rocks
are on record, and that such things are pos
sible was demonstrated here i'U Thursday
afternoon, when a workman engaged in
Yarley & Everill’s lime rock quarry north
of the city, broke open a large piece of rock
which had been blasted out, and a frog
bopped out of a pocket in the center of the
stone. Of course the occurrence created
a tree oudous sensation among the
workmen, and operations at the quarry
were for tbe time suspended and
the movements of the frog were watched
with great interest. The animal was some
what smaller than the ordinary frog, and
was perfectly white. Its eyes were unus
ually large and very brilliant, but tbe frog
was apparently blind. Where the mouth
should have b.6u there w as only u line, and
on the feet there was a dark, horny sub
stance. Mr. Evenll at once took charge of
the curiosity aud put it in a tin can, but the
frog died yesterday morning. He brougat
it down town and it was examined with
interest by a large number of people, and it
was aflerward presented to the museum,
whore it will be preserved in alcohol.
FOR TIRED BRAIN

Dr. O. C. Stout, Syracuse, N, Y., says:
“I gave it to one pationt who was unable to
transact the most ordinary business liecause
his brain as ‘tired aud confused’ npon the
least mental exertion. Irani-diate benefit
and ultimate recovery followed.”— Aclc.
