The long expected hook and ladder
truck arrived yesterday over the Chicago
cage , Milwaukee & St. Paul , and was
the object of much admiration as it was
drawn through the city. The name ,
concerning which there has been con
siderable curiosity , turns out to ho
William Groneweg. The apparatus is
from the establishment of E. U. Preston
& Co. , Chicago , and is of the newebt
pattern. It is elegantly finished and
is fully supplied wilh chemical ex
tinguishers , axes , bars , picks , ropes ,
lanterns and buckets in audition to the
ladders and poles. The largo sovonty-
llvo foot ladder is firmly fastened to the
truck and \\ill support boveral men and
lines of hose without any other bracing
than that afforded at the baso. The
other ladders are 5.5 , 85 , ! 50 , 25. 20 , IS
and 10 feet in length , and the facilities
for handling them are unexcelled. The
two largo chemical reservoirs have u
warranted pro-Hiiro of 1200 pounds to the
Miuaro inch. The whole truck is lifty
feet in length , weighs 7,200 pounds and
cost $2,700. As its now quarters on
Broadway are not quite ready , it is
housed for the present in the now patrol
hou'-o. It will ho nearly ti month be
fore the Broadway house is finishedbut
it can bo occupied itiaboiitaweek. The
second story is now in the hands of the
plasterers , and the carpenters are busy
on the lower floor.Vhon fully com
pleted and occupied by the new truck
it will bo ono of the hiintl-omi'st and
best equipped buildings of its kind in
this section of the country.
A little practice will enable the boys
to do very effective work and do itilh
remarkable rapidity. Everything about
the truck , while solid , is simple. The
truck can bo driven into position , a pin
pulled , and the horses driven away.
" ; 'ho base of the scvonty-livo-foot cxton-
ion ladder is firmly fixed to a turn-
able , so that when it is raised it can bo
illed in any direction , and at any angle ,
'wo cranks raise the ladder into posi-
ion , and another throws up the cxton-
ion , and in less time than it takes to
oil it the ladder is in position , and the
MX bois at the top , they having done all
heir climbing while the men at the
cranks were hoisting. This city has
eng had an efficient fire department ,
nut no serious fire has occurred for
earn. Tlio bojs are now better pro-
Hired than over to protect the city.

A Mntlicinntlcftl Womlrr.
Now York World : Reuben Fields , a
most extraordinary individual , has re
turned to his homo near Owingsvllle ,
Ky. , after an absence of como years in
the west. Fields is known far and wide
IIM the "Mathematical Prodigy , " and in
deed , he is a mint wonderful creature.
Perfectly illiterate , not being nblo to
tell ono letter or figure from anotherhe
bears the name relation to the science
of mathematics that Blind Tom does to
music. Fields is now about twenty-
eight years of age , and his ability to
quickly and correctly solve the most dif
ficult problem was discovered when ho
was but eight years old , That faculty
continued to develop until ho is able to
solve , with lightning-like rapidity , any
thing in the higher brandies of niatho-
cmatics. For instance , the moon is n
certain number of miles from the earth ;
a grain of corn is so long ; how many
grains does it take to connect the
points ? The answer to this
or any other problem comes like
a flash. IIo can also tell to the fraction
of a second the time of day or night.
This marvellous man has been tested
by the most expert mathematicians , and
Ins answers to problems have been
found to bo invariably correct. Scien
tists have examined Fields' head and
pronounce his wondrously developed
faculty u profound mvstcry to them.
Fields knows little else than this ex
traordinary ability. IIo claims that
bis power In this respect is a direct gift
from his Creator , and _ liable to bo taken
away from him if not properly used.
The pos-e--or of this gift never went to
school a day in his life , and never did a
day's work , except to occasionally aid
merchants in invoicing their goods ,
nnd in this business ho has been known
to keep a score or more of clerks busy
footing up columns of figures. Ho is a
very largo man , and has a look the reverse -
verso of intelligent. Having no occu
pation , ho lives among his acquain
tances , putting up wherever night over
takes him. Ho is very proud of his
gift , and frequently compares himself
to Samson. Fields gave an exhibition
of his powers before Governor Critten-
den and other distinguished men of
Missouri on a late visit west , and they
unhesitatingly pronounce him ono of
the greatest wonders of the century.

In the Grip of a Bear.
A correspondent irom Bangor , Me. ,
writes : Dr. B. II. Ordway.an old army
doctor , says that a c-iso ho has just had
is one of the worst ho was over called
to attend. The doctor lives in East
Sullivan. He was summoned to Plan
tation No. 7 by a messenger , who had to
walk several miles through the forest.
Arriving at a litlle farm house on the
plantation ho found his patient. In
this way-back country , about forty or
fifty miles from Bangor , old settlers and
their sons have strange methods of
capturing and killing the bears which
make havoc in their cornfields , in theii
orcluuds , and sometimes in their very
barn yards ; for they are so bold that in
some places they care very little for n
man. In this case a gun was arranged
in a corn field in such a manner that
when bruin put his teeth into the bait
attached to ittho weapon was discharged
right at _ his head. This scheme fet
oxterminoting bears is not uncommon
hero , and , when it proves successful , il
is as good as a picnic or a holiday foi
the farmers , who can realize two months
living out of the proceeds of bounty
hide and meat. Simon Harvey and
William Johnson , backwoodsmen ol
Plantation No. V , wont to visit ono ol
tbcso bear guns. Just as they wore approaching
preaching It they heard the report o !
its discharge. They ran nt full spect
to the trap , but , to their dismay , th (
bear , badly wounded and not dead
raised himself on his hinders , and , will
double the power of Sullivan , the slugger -
gor , dealt Harvey a stunning blow will
his fore-paw , which felled him to the
ground. The boar then began to chav
up the backwoodsman to pieces , tearing
bis flesh with tooth nnd chny. After i
few minutes' hard fight Johnsoi
finished the bear and rescued Harvey
The bear weighed 400 pounds. Th <
doctor , in dressing his patient's wounds
used four spools of silk and forti
needles. The flesh on Harvey's arms
from elbows to fingers , was torn ii
many places to the bone , and his beat
was badly lacerated.m
A Boon for Travelers ,
The traveler who guards against sud
den attacks of cold , headache , indigestion
tion , diarrhoea , etc. , ailments not infrequently
quontly brought on by changes of cli
male and water , is the sensible , far
seeing man. Always have handy ii
your valise or trunk a box of Allcock'i
Porous Plasters. "Worn on the pit o
the stomach they will so strengthen tin
digestive organs that you can eatalmos
anything , and travel without fear o
taking cold.
The Foremost Gcriimii-SpeakliiB AVIt
London Spectator : Moritz Gotlicl
Saphir , a Jewish journalist , is regardci
as the foremost wit and humorist of tin
German-speaking people. Many ox
iimplcs are cited of his readiness in re
tort.
While living at Munich ho incurrci
the displeasure of King Ludwig by criti
cising the royal author's party. An op
portunity subsequently offered for expelling
polling the offending journalist froi :
the Bavarian capital , and ho was or
dered to leave within four and twent ;
hours. The court chamberlain , coin
missioned by the king , waited on bin
and asked if ho could manage to go
away in so short a timo. "Yes , " re
plied the unabashed journalist , "and i
my own legs can't take mo quiekl ;
enough , I'll borrow some of the supoi
lluous feet in her majesty's late volunn
of verso. "
Ho once accidentally knocked agains
some person when turning the corner c
a street in Munich. "Beast ! " cried In
offended person without waiting for ai
apology. "Thank you , " said the jour
nalist"and ' mine is Saphir. "
When intronuced for the first time t
the prompter of the Lcipsingor Slad
theatre , a pompous personage too mucl
in evidence at times , Saphir remarked
"I heard a good deal of you , Ilorr A ]
the prompter bowed his acknowlcdg
monts of the expected compliment
while the wit added "in the course o
a performance last evening. "
Driving out In the suburbs of Vionn
ono day , his coachman , a popper ,
miothkutschor , got into an altercaUo
with a rival Jehu. Words soon led t
oaths , an oaths tp blows , nnd the pal
sot to in good earnest to decide whic
was the bettor man. Popping b > s hen
out of the fiacre window , Saphir inildl
implored to oblige him and drub cap
other ns quickly as they could , for h
had "engaged the carriage by tli
hour. "
A yoiing couple , newly engaged , wen
favored wftli n. let tor of Introduction to
him. which they duly presented. Now ,
the gentleman was notorious for his effe
minate habits nnd ways , and htsnppear-
anco at Once struck' the eye of the ob
servant journalist , , who had heard about
him. Ho Mild nothing , received the
pair with cxprossoinent , insisted upon
their being seated in his most comfort
able easy chairs , ngsured them how
plcnscd ho wns to hear of their engage
ment , and wound up with : "Now , pray ,
you must , you really must , toll mo which
of you Is the bride. "
Ho once described n theatre ns beingso
full that people were obliged to laugh per
pendicularly , there was no room to dose
so horizontally. Of a dull townlet ho
visited , ho remarked It was so quiet that
but for an occasional death there would
really bo no life in the place.
A Bountiful Autograph by Trnln. '
Philadelphia News : George Francis
Train's recent arrest in Chicago for Ms
wild utterances in behalf of the anarch
ists brings forcibly to mind the time
when ho was ono of the most highly ad
mired in this country. In the early
period of the war of rebellion ho and
Henry Ward Beecher wore the foremost
orators in defense of the union , and
Train's impassioned utterances in Eng
land aroused a feeling in behalf of the
federal arms which did much to prevent
the British government from giving
further substantial aid to the confeder
acy. Train was then a very wealthy nnd
very influential man. Ho was the first to
introduce the American tramway on the
streets of London. During the troublous
times to which I have referred
ho was traveling once from Washing
ton to Now York. Ho left the train at
Wilmington to procure a lunch. Ilia
presence created considerable comment
and excitement in the railroad station
throng , and when ho wns about to again
board the train a lady arrived with an
autograph album , approached him nnd
begged that ho would write his name in
her book. A rain storm had just passed
away nnd a beautiful rainbow was bent
across the heavens. Train looked up
ward to it and then wrote thcso lines :
See the rainbow In the sity ,
Across the piith the tempest trod.
It was written by a hand on high ;
It is the autograph of God.
As far as 1 know the verso was orig
inal with Train. I never saw it in
print. A Wilmington lawyer recited
the incident to me. If another than
Train is the author of the lines I would
like to know the fact.

The Sale of the Chicago Times Not Off.
Chicago Tribune , Nov. 8 : "The ne
gotiations for the transfer of the Times
have not fallen through , and are
if possible in a more favorable posi
tion than when the first information was
published , " said J. J. West , of the Mail ,
last night. "Wo have until January 1
tp take possession , and wo will bo on
time. 1 have been very much occupied
with the litigationin the Regan affair
or the matter would bo nearer comple
tion. But everything is all right and
will remain so. It is only a question of
n week earlier or later. "
"You say that the matter is in a bet
ter position than at the first announce
ment. How is it ? "
"Simply because those who are inter
ested with mo in the purchase have been
to Chicago , looked over the ground , and
are more than satisfied with their bar
gain. As has been stated , I am the
largest holder in the new company , and
I paid the $50,000deposit , which I would
not have done if I had not seen my way
perfectly clear. "
"Aro the parties interested with you
the eastern capitalists mentioned some
time ago "
"They are not , but I do not care to
say anything on that point at present. "

Beaten atHcr | Own Game.
Birmingham Ago : Superintendent
Morton of the Union railway company
tells the following story : "When I
first took charge of the road the drivers
complained to mo of a certain lady who
rode down town and back ngnln every
day without paying faro. She would
get aboard the car and hand the driver
a 820 bill to change. Of course ho could
not change it and could not ask the lady
to got off , so she rode free every trip.
I decided thatsho was deliberately beat
ing the companyand determined to got
even with her. Ono morning I gave
ono of the drivers on the line which
passed the lady's house $20 in nickels ,
and instructed him to change the lady's
bill. She fell into the trap , and about
10 o'clock boarded the right car on her
way down town. She handed the driver
the $20 bill , and he promptly returned
her 400 nickels. She put her fare in the
box , but was so angry she left the car
and did not ride again fora month. Af
ter that she always had change when
she boarded a car. "
Transcontinental Travel.
Now York Evening Post : Three
through cars started from Now England
yesterday to California , filled with about
125 men and women , most of whom have
been employed in various branches of
service at a great White Mountain
hotel during the summer nnd early
weeks of autumn , nnd are to fill similar
places , under the same employer , in n
winter resort hotel on the other side of
tho' continent during the next few
months. The incident is a striking il
lustration of various developments of
modern civilization for onetho easoof
communication between the two coasts ;
for another , the now omnloymehts
opened by what may bo called the re
sort industry ; for a third , the growth of
the leisure class , which sustains these
great hotels in all seasons of the year.
Closely connected with these tendencies
is the development of the excursion
business by the railroads.
