Remarkable Presence OF Mind.

Owing to an alleged necessity of push
ing the work as fast as possible on the
New Point bridge, Pittsburgh, the con-
tractors had the men who are employed
in joining the three cables engaged all
day yesterday. They are compelled to
work in "basket or platform, which
is suspended above the river at about
the height of ninety feet from the water.
Yesterday afternoon a workman by some
accident fell off the platform. Hang
ing from the platform, was rope that
reached nearly to the water. In his
frightful descent the man attempted to
grasp the rope, but a. he kept turning
somersaults in the air he was unable to
reach it until within about twenty feet
of the river, when he succeeded in
grasplng the rope with both hands. He
was at first unable to stop his descent,
aud slid down the rope for about fifteen
feet, until his feet nearly touched the
water. Then, to the astonishment of
the people on the banks who had seen
with horror his terrible fall, he COM
menced climbing back upon the rope
hand over hand. Then the crowd
cheered him Justify, and his companions
on the platform drew him up uninjured,
except the inside of his hands, which

Official vote of Michigan:
Funerals as Disease Breeders.

There is good reason to believe that
disease is occasionally disseminated
through the medium of funerals. We
have at least one fairly authenticated
instance in this country of diphtheria
being ditfused broadcast through the
crowding incidental, occasionally, to the
last ceremony. In America this ques-
ton is beginning to receive much atten-
ton, and several cases have been re-
ported of late where the transmission of
the disease from the corpse seemed
highly probable. The Suffolk District
Medical Society sent out 400 circulars to
medical practitioners with view to
ascertain the opinion OF the profession
on the alleged danger of permitting pub
lie funerals of persons who had died
from diphtheria. Two hundred and
thirty.nine answers were received of
these lab writers express belief in the
possible danger of contagion at such
funerals, seventeen believe that there is
danger from funerals in the houses of
the dead, but none in churches, twenty
nine fancy that in the present state OF
knowledge there is no justification in
prohibiting public funerals, and eight
record circumstances which occurred in
their own experience confirmatOry OF the
proposition that peril may ensue, but
the testimony these latter advance is not
quite satisfactory. The society after
due consideration recommend that funer-
ais at the houses of those who have died
of diphtheria should be private, owing to
possible exposure to the poison of the
disease. -LGncet.

Great Names.

Twenty years ago family moved from
Illinois to this city. Soon after arriving
here daughter was born to the female
head of the household, and, being favor
ably impressed with the country and
hopeful for the outlook, they named the
youngster Great Prospects. Not long
since another daughter was born, and a
name was found In a singular manner.
The names of Illinois and Colorado we're
reversed, and now the little one is COM
PEELED to go through the world as Sionilh
Odaroloc. In the meantime, Great
Prospects has grown up te be of consid-
cradle size, and in this regard the family
are probably realizing the faith implied
by the naming. As yet, at least, there
has appeared no cause for the reversal OF
the name, and she has only suffered by
a diminution of her cognomen to the
common word "Specks. Denver (Col)
