Singing He Died.
From the New York World

The circumstances ATTENDING the
death of Frank Bartlett, the well.
known church baritone, who died on
Saturday last, were particularly aft ect.
ing and dramatic. He had been suf-
fering for some days from pneumonia,
and had endured great pain. On the
eve of his death he was much better,
and bis friend, Mr.. Coyle had deter

Fearing the worst, he sent for DIR. J..

filing up with a watery secretion, inter
fering with the ABSORPTION of oxygen
and the exhalation of carbonic acid,
thus rendering him unconscious. Slim
ulsnts were given in large quantities,
and DR.. Guernsey was sent for and ex-
pressed the opinion that the patient
had not more than fifteen minutes to
live. He rallied, however, and recog-
nized many of hi, music friends who
were present. d.. Gilbert, finding that
the stimulants were not having much
effect, suggested that some music
should be played. Mr.. Post accord
ingly sat down to the piano, and began
to play one of Mr.. Bartlett's favorite
hymns, the tears meanwhile running
down his cheeks. In minute or two
the company were startled to see the
dying man rise in his bed, and with
great effort sing to Posts accompani-

hymns, his listeners looking On in
In few minutes he
sank back exhausted, and fell into
stupor, from which was again reused
at the sound of the piano, the familiar
music proving more potent than all the
other stimulants combined. Again he
attempted TO sing, but the water which
had accumulated in the bronchial tube
overlooked into the wind pipe, causing
iropsy of the lungs and stranguiation,
and the singer fell back dead.

In the regions of clouds, where the whirlwinds

And grew tired of my seat in the air;
When, all of sudden. my castle stood still,
As If some attraction was there.
Like a lark from the sky it came futtering

And placed me exactly in view;
When whom should meet in this charming
retreat,
This corner of calmness, but you.
Delighted to find you in honor and ease,

And the wind coming fair, 1 assembled the
breeze,
And went back to my castle again.
