THE MYSTERIOUS VOICE
How a Graphophone Sung a
Strange Song in a Trunk.
Between the stories of Conductor
Tom Pope and Sandy MeTougal,
backed by Sandy McTougal’s
friends, one gets a pretty good idea
of Sandy’s remarkable adventure
with a voice or, as Sandy terms it,
with tlie devil in a box.
Tom Pope is condueto'r and Mc-
Tougal is baggage master on the
Air line, which runs front the At-
Tantie ocean to “the middle of next
week.”
"Most astonishing thing, that
hunt of Sandy’s for a voice,” said
the conductor the other night.
‘‘What was that?”
“Well, it was this: Sandy was
lonely and miserable. Nobody talk
ed to him or gave him a quarter for
not smashing the baggage, so he
took to brown studies and naps be
tween stations. The night of his
voice business his ear was jnmful
of luggage. The more trunks Sandy
has on hoard the crosser he gets.
There was a camp meeting on a
switch off track, and at the junction
I picked up a lot of nobby passen
gers who were leaving for other
places of amusement, and there was
no end of trunks.
“MeTougal got things into shape
about 11 o’clock, 1 reckon, and as
there’s a part of the run where it’s
a good hour between stations he
got ready for a snooze. lie picked
out the softest trunk in the pile on
which to pillow his head, tilted back
his chair with his feet on the
rounds, pulled his hat over his face
and went to sleep. How’s that,
Mac?”
“Quite keerect,” responds the
baggage master.
“Very well; then you tell it for
awhile. I wasn’t there, vojt know.”
“It didn’t seem’s if I’d been asleep
more’ll a minute,” began Sandy,
“when there was a lively jump of
the ear, an’ I sort of come to life
with a jerk. At the same time I
heerd, as if ’way off, a noise like
someone a-talkin’. But I thought
’twas a brakeman outside an’ was
jes’ a-dozin’ off ag’iu when rigjht
at my ear in a thin, sharp voice
suthin’ said, ‘0 Lord!’
“1 ain’t no fool, I ain’t,” Sandy
asserts, throwing back bis head de
liantly, “an’ when that tin whisper
comes into my ear I jes’ opened my
eyes, spectin’ to see some of the
hoys around. But not a livin’ thing
was visible. So I said to myself, ‘I
snored; that’s what’s the matter.’
An’ off I goes a-noddin’ an’ dream
in’.
“Then ag’in I hears that voice.
It says quite distinctly, ‘I want to
get out!’
“Now, I wasn’t a bit mistaken
this time. I heefd it. But ’fore I
could get my wits together there
was a yell soundin’ ’way off.
“ ‘That’s my death call/ says I
to myself, instantly callin’ to mind
fellows who had heerd like sounds
an’ were dead in less’n a week. Then
I says to myself, ‘Sandy, don’t he a
fool P an’ jumps to my feet as wide
awake as 1 am now.
“It was a woman’s squawk, an’ I
could have sworn to it. Then it
sung out in tin trumpet style:
“ ‘Help, help 1’
“I hauled over the tool chest an’
the water barrel an’ the cupboard in
the corner an’ looked out on the
platforms an’ did everything a man
could do under the circumstances
to find out what was a-makin’ of
that fuss. I went to the side door
to cool myself an’ was a-fannin’ my
face when, blame me, if I didn’t
hear a. cornet start off with the
‘Rogues’ March’ an’ a gruff voice
toiler it with:
“ ‘ln the midst of life we are in
death.’
“I yanked my head round an’
didn’t see nutliin’ that wasn’t there
before. That threw me off my pins.
Then a rooster crowed, an’ a feller
with a cold in his nose counted ten
forward an’ then backward, an an
other cuss with a bullfrog voice or
dered me: ‘Wake up! ‘The devil
wants you!’ iYou needn't laugh,
|cntlemen, when I tell you I run,
Jm’ so’d you if you’d been thar. I
was certain the devil had come for
me, late, but sure, an’ I didn’t wait
for him to ask for my ticket.”
Tom Pope at this point broke
into a stentorian laugh.
“If, gentlemen, you’d seen Sandy
come flying into the car where I
was sitting, you would never stop
laughing. You may not believe it,
but his brown face was as white as
your shirt fronts, and his eyes were
as big as billiard halls. He dashed
down the aisle and whispered in
my ear:
“ ‘Tom, Tom, come with me!’
“‘What’s the matter, Mae?’ I
aaid—‘-What ails you?’
“‘Tom, the devil’s in my ear.
He’s been a-cuttin’ up for an hour,
an’ I’m most crazy. If you’re my
friend, come with me!’
“He wasn’t drunk, because ha
doesn’t drink. It wasn’t religious
enthusiasm, because Sandy had no
religion. I almost believed he
meant what he said and that he Had.
been called for. L got up in a hur
ry and followed him.
“I hadn’t more than got inside
the baggage ear when from among
the trunks something sung out,
‘Shut that door and pulldown your
vest!’
“Sandy wanted to fight then,”
continued Tom. “He danced around
that car like a prizefighter in the
rfftg until the voice cried out quite
loud, ‘Damnation!’ [
“ ‘Pshaw!’ I said’ to Sandy. ‘That
is a boxed up parrot.’”
“An’ then the parrot told yon
you lied,” asserts MeTougal,
es," says Tom cheerfully.
“An’ then you said —do you, re
member what you said?”
“No, Mac. But wasn’t I at}your
side when we got into the ■ next
coach a second later?”
“Wo came back with two brake
men,” MeTougal remarks, continu
ing. “One of them brakemen looked
on top of the car an’ under it an’ in
it. He stuck to it that there was a
ventriloquist about, but gave that
klee up when he couldn’t find no
body.”
“We flung those trunks right and
left in a lively style,” observed
Pope, “but not a tiling did we dis
cover-—no human living or dead
thing- -not a place from which the
noise came. We were puzzled, you.
may believe, and if the search had
stopped there the road might have
warehoused that coach, for no rail
road man would have traveled in a
ear that was haunted. But the end
came. While we were looking in
each other’s face and frightened in
being blocked in that sort of way
the voice spoke again. It said very
distinctly: ‘Let me out! I am dy
ing-dying!’ ”
“It was under my arm, the voice
was,” Sandy exclaims, “in a big
trunk that had come from camp
meeting. I sung out for Jake to
run for a doctor, if there was one
on the train, an’ Tom an' me put
that trunk on the floor as gently as
if ’twas glass. ’Twas light enough.
We thought the poor thing must ho
almost a* skeleton. I got hold of
the sledge hammer. ‘Keep up your
courage, ma’am/ I shouted, ‘an we’ll
have you out in a jiffy!’”
“You should have seen Sandy at
that moment,” says Pope enthusi
astically. “He looked a hero, every
inch of him. He gave that hammer
four sweeping swings. Crash!
Crash! Rip! Tear! Off came the
top, and it was flung clean across
the car. A pile of light, fleecy stuff
followed. A dozen faces looked anx
iously into that trunk, expecting to
see the body of a dying or dead wo
man. Sandy seemed beside himself
with anxiety.
“We crowded around the trunk,
and the doctor knelt down beside
it. He pulled out a lot of rags very
carefully, ran his arm down on a
prospecting tour, lifted up it great
wad of cotton, took a good long
look under it, rose to'-bis feet and
began to curse everybody and call
them all a pack of fools. Then he
changed his tune and began to
laugh. I asked him a little angrily
what he was making such a fuss
about and if he proposed to take
out the body.
“‘Body! Body! Ha, ha, ha, ha!
See here, gentlemen!’ And he
tossed out the cotton from the
trunk, showing a funny looking ma
chine at the bottom. ‘This is String
fellow’s phonograph that he’s had
down to camp meeting/ the doctor
said. ‘He took one of Edison’s con
cerns and rigged it up so as to go
by clockwork. The shaking of the
car set it in motion. It’s been re
peating, parrotlike, only what was
told to it by the saints and sinners.
Very simple, you see. I won’t charge
you anything for my visit, conduct
or. Good night.’ And off he went.
“Sandy, our friends here want to
know how that dream of yours over
that trunk ended.”
“Oh, they do, do they? Waal,
gentlemen, I had to pay the cost of
that trunk, an’ trunks cost in these
times. It took a month’s salary to
do it, which isn’t complimentary to
the road. I learned one lesson. If
I ever want to open any man’s lug
gage in future, I’ll smash it in pro
fessional style.”
