Rob Roy ft ’t i the best on the market THE BRUNSWICK DAILY RJffWS. 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.” The sensible housewife will always use Rob Roy flour.
