Tanners History.

MlxsEApoLIs, July 1c.-Dr. Tauner is
we'll known character in this city, where ne
has gained some notoriety since bis fast OF
42 days. made in this city two years ago.
He ia regarded rs a man much given to
hobby riding, aud, though possessed Of
more than average ability and great no
auirements in his profession, has not devo-
ted himself much TO The practice OF medi-
cine, devoting much Of bis time tue tenn
perauce cause aud TO discussions In the Lib
er.l League, a society Of rationalists, athe-
ists. etc. More recently he has given bis
time almost entirely to research and core
spon dence on the subject Of long-continned
abstinence from food, in which capacity he
became a newspaper Office nuisance with
his inevitable bundle of manuscript. Love
OF notoriety is not the least OF his eccentric
,t;ss. An unusual tendency TO accumulate
fat when bis appetite Is given unrestretain-
ed svav first led him to limit his diet, by
which means he reduced himself from 200
TO 1Go pounds, and those who are familiar
| with his habi.s assert that be eats scarcaly
enough In "a hours to make one ordinary
sized meal. He has boarded himself In
lodgings during most OF the time ne aas
resided here. IL has long been hobby OF
Tanners that abstinence from food was
the surest remedy for bodily ailments, and
| in his own case be has regularly practice0
il, often pursuing policy Of this kind io'
twelve DAYS. On the occasion that nc u
said TO have aosSained from food for forty
two DAYS he was under the surveillance o.
DIR. Mayer. who has no doubt that % non
estly lived without food during that time
DR.. Mayer stated to the Times correspond
ent Yesterday that, that the cbaracser'st''
developments during the case are those on
countered by him before, and be has no up
prehensiops for DR.. tanners safety, anf
