She Got the “Irong Corpse.
MACON, Ga... Dec. 9.—‘Irs. Faris, a. lady
'om Wisconsin, left here yesterday for
home with the body of her son, S. H. Mc-
Kinney, a telegraph operator, who was ac-
cidentally killed at Baxley, Get, a year ago
by falling from a train. The remains were
interred there. but Mrs. Faris came to take
the body to lVisconsin. It was placed in a
handsome burial casket, the mother cutting
aloz-k of hair off her boy’s head. She had
started north with the body, but on reach-
ing this city was stopped by a telegram an-
nouncing that the wrong body had been dis-
interred. The sorrowing lady, much shocked,
returned to Barley and secured the corpse
of her son.
Beekeepers in Session.
ALBANY, Dec. .).——-The state beekeepers
met at Geological hall in annual session, but

ries and honey will be the topics discussed.
Indian Agents Suspended.
PIERRE, S. D., Dec. 9.—All the officers iin—
plicated in the Cheyenne agency frauds are
reported to have been suspended. A special
inspector has been placed in charge of the
agency. Some of the Indians are suifering .
from want of food.
Cantunkerous Slot Machine.
The other day the Listener had a
story about a, penny-in-the-slot
weighing machine which weighed
Without any penny in the slot. Up at
the Food Show there is the antithesis
of this machine in the shape of a
nickle-in—the-slot arrangement which
doesn’t go when you put in the nickle.
When the Listener was up there the
other afternoon, an elderly, dignified,
and statesmanlike gentleman whom
he accompanied was attracted by the
phonographs in the outside hall, and
as there seemed to be scarcely any
one in the vicinity, he thought he
would venture to hear one of the
phonograph tunes. The directions
read something like this: “ Drop in
the nickle and turn the crank to the
right until the bell rings, then put
the tubes to the ears.” The states-
manlike gentleman dropped in a
good, honest nickle, and began
to turn the crank to the right. He
turned and turned, but no bell rang.
The more he turned, the more frantic
he grew, and presently a crowd began
to gatheraround to see him turn and
to offer advice and suggestions.
“ Turn faster,” said one, but he was
out of breath already. “ Hit it a rap
and shake down the nickel,” said an-
other. He hit it a. rap and turned on,
but no bell rang. “ Where is the boss
of this machine?” said another; “it’s
a dead sell.” The crowd grew larger
every moment, and the elderly man at
the crank redder and-redder in the
face. Somebody suggested trying the ‘
tubes, but they were as silent as the
harp that hangs on Tara’s walls. The
statesmanlike man gave it up and beat
a retreat. “You’re out a. nickel. capn
tain,” said a youth, “but you could
get an engagement on a piano organ
any time!” Laughter by the cro‘wd..
The victim of this incident carried
away from it but one consoling reflec-
tion—that he has the distinction of
being owed a valid debt of five cent!)

More Trouble for Chili.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 9.—Pau1 Bergner,
