New York Times, August 6.

William LIE Kerling, aged twenty -one
years, of No. 800 Third avenue, went to Koe-
nig's bathing establishment at the foot OF
East Fifty-ffth street, yesterday, for the pur-
pose of taking swim in the East river.
After disporting in the water for some time,
lie Kerling, who was good diver, proceeded
to the spring board, from which he jumped
head foremost. In doing SO, however, he
failed to notice that man named Joseph
Stor stood Immediately beneath him. AS
LeKerling shot downward he struck Stor,
head to head, with great force, and a moment
later both men sank under the water Meth
er reappeared and several persons fastened
to their assistance Stor was found lying
under the water stunned by the blow he had
received on the top of the head. He was
carried on shore and soon regained conscious
ness. Vigilant search was made for LIE Ker-
ling's body, but it was not recovered.

Fourteen Great Mistakes.

1t is great mistake to set up our own
standard Of right and wrong, and judge peo-
pie accordingly. 1t is great mistake to
measure the employment of others by our
own: to expect uniformity Of opinion in this
world; to look for judgment and experience
in youth to endeavor to mould all DISPOSE
tions alike; not to yield to immaterial tri-
fies; to look for perfection in our own actions;
to worry ourselves and others with what
cannot be remedied not to alleviate all that
needs alienation, as far as lies in our power !;
not to make allowances for the infirmities of
others; to consider everything impossible
which we cannot perform to believe only
what our finite minds can grasp; to expect
to be able to understand everything The
greastest of all mistakes is to live only for
time, when any moment may launch us in
to eternity.

Pacific Medical Journal. |


A French writer, according to the Cincin
natl Lancet, says that if the eyelids be closed
and opened as fast as possible twenty OF
thirty times in irresistible inclination tc
sleep will Immediately follow. The plan is
best adapted to insomnia from nerve troubles
! We have tried it with some advantage, but
! not SO much as the statement implies. The
! point to be gained by men of busy heads in
order to induce sleep is to divert the current
of cerebral action away from all exciting
and disturbing thought. This may be done
! by any one of thousand expedients which
have been contrived to occupy the attention
by some trivial exercise of memory or i'm
aginatiOn which will crowd out the perturb-
ing theme ana substitute others neither eX-
citing nor diSagreeable. Such are the count
ing OF an imaginary flock OF sheep jumping
one by one over fence; counting the vibra-
tions OF an imaginary pendulum; counting
your own resplrations, giving one or two to
each inspiration and expiration counting a
hundred backwards repeating the alphabet
backwards; calling to mind all the names of
persons beginning with the several letters of
the alphabet, etc. This plan may be utilized
by applying it to geography, history, biogra-
ply, botany and other branches Of knowl-
edge; recalling as far as possible all names
of rivers, or Cities or lakes beginning with A,
B, and so forth the names OF distinguished
men in like manner, or Of plants. A medi-
cal student or physician might trace the
arteries or nerves, or recount the bones OF
the skeleton if he desire very dry and
sleepy subject All these exercises wear out
in time and must be changed and newly con-
trived ones substituted. for there is no limit
to their range. Mental recitation of poetry
or prose may be resorted to. There are also
mechanical methods of overcoming insomnia,
particularly if the ''fidgets" be present. Such
are getting out of bed and applying the flesh
brush freely; friction with coarse and wet
towel. Franklin used to take what he called
an air-bath, stripping himself completely
and walking back and forth over the floor
briskly Some mechanical methods act in
directly on the brain, as the opening and
closing Of the eyes above mentioned. DR..
Hartshorne's method of inducing anesthesia
by rapid breathing may furnish some hints
in that direction. Most persons have felt
the effect on the head of blowing at a fire
with the mouth and lungs-what dizziness
and approach to inconsistencies it produces.
Similar movements favor sleep. We have
often induced sleep by few exhalations and
inhalations, both as complete as possible. 1t
is singular how long the lungs will remain
quiescent after these forced movements, be-
fore the call for oxygen renews the normal
action of the respiratory muscles.

From early dawn till twilight falls,

And all the while, in some still place,
Where INTERVIEWING boughs embrace,
The blackbirds build, time flies apace
With env. of the folk who die,
Who may at last their leisure take,
Whose longed for sleep none roughly wake,
Tired hands the restless needle ply.

And reddening sorrel mods between.
Too pure and proud TO sell her soul.

While in the peaceful fields the sheep
Feed quiet: and through heavens blue deep
The silent cloud wings stainless sweep.
And if she be alive or dead
That weary woman scarcely knows,
But back and forth her needle goes
IN tune with the throbbing heart and head.

many, where the benighted people do not
know any better, the pretzel is called a
kringle. This is enough to spoil the pretzel
only that is impossible. The pretzel is al
ways planted ON free-lunch counters. There
is more nutrition in barrel of sawddst than
there is in clothes basket full of pretzels
But then, the pretzel is much the dryer OF
the two. The genuine pretzel has heart
like marble yard, and the hide is vanished
to keep it dry. 1t is vanished with hot Iye
and sprinkled with salt and anise seed to give
it tone
Before it assumes the expression so familiar
to the lovers of this perennial fruit, the pref
eel is about the size of garter snake. After
it is tied up in that intricate knot which
makes the eater wonder where to take his
first bite, no man can guess at its length.
Enough is known, however, to warrant
scientific authorities in saying that if man
should swallow pretzel whole and it should
suddenly straighten out in him, it would kill
him in minute. 1t is not possible, how
ever, for man to eat pretzel whole. You
can eat all the rest of it, but while there is
more mole than pretzel to begin with, yet
the more you eat the pretzel the more whole
there is left

What it Costs to Ride in Special Cars
and Live Like Lord.

Laramie Boomerang.
The passage through this city, and over
tine various railroad lines of so many
specials" or, in other words, Pullman and
other private cars, chartered by persons of
endless means or extensive influence, is so
common an occurrence that the following in
formation in regard to the charges of car,
including services of a conductor, porter and
two walters will be interesting: The Pull
man company charges $50 day for the use
of car, which includes the services of a
conductor, a cook and two walters. Besides
this the person hiring the car-or in fact any
car-must buy eighteen full tickets Of the
railroad line over which the car passes for
hauling it. The car is usually attached to
regular train, and if special engine is
secured, which is rarely the case, the cost is
greatly increased. Provisions and liquors
are supplied by the Pullman company at
cost, or the person to whom the car is let
may stock it himself: Sleeping cars are let
at the rate of $50 per day, including con-
ductor and porter, and hotel cars at $75 a
day, including conductor, cook and two
walters. The Pullman company also has
two hunting and fishing cars. One is named
the Dayie Crockett and the other Izaak Wal
ton. The charge of these cars is $35 day,
which includes cook and waiter for each.
Thes cars are provided with kennels for dogs.

TITLE THROUGH ALIENS.
Decision of the Supreme Court in {
Mining Land Case.

Rose and Rehberg, citizens of the United
States, located some mining ground and
their successor sold to Wing Hung and other
aliens, who again conveyed to others, who
conveyed to Ferguson & Hillhouse While
the latter were in possession, other parties
located and conveyed to one Neville Fer
guson d Hillhouse brought suit to quiet title.
The defendant claimed that under section
2319 of the Revised Statutes of the United
States, which relates to entering on and oc-
cupying public lands the Chinese aliens
could not own the ground, and therefore
could not pass title. A nonsuit was grant
ed and afterward a new trial by the lower
court. An appeal was taken from the order
granting new trial, and the Supreme Court
held that the title had passed from the
United States to Rose and Rehberg, and that
they had right to sell, and that under section
II, article l of the Constitution, aliens have
the same right to purchase, hold or sell prop
erty as native born citizens, and the China
men had a right to purchase from the sue
cessor of the locators and pass title by sale
again to their successors The order grant
ing new trial was affirmed

Why do not the Democratic journals which
are super-sensitive about fraud" favor
their readers with "a few remarks about the
situation of affairs in Mississippi? A Demo
cratic governor has just been inauguraled
whose only title to his seat is that it was
stolen for him aud the bogus Democratic
majority in the Legislature has just voted
unanimously to re elect Mr.. Lamar to the
United States Senate. Mr. Lamar has the
same kind of a title that the governor has, yet
he will undoubtedly accept the stolen
office, and will favor the country from time to
time with high minded views on political mo-
rality. These are interesting phases of the
fraud question: and we should like very much
to peruse some Democratic comments thereon.
We have tried in vain 10 extract some from
Mr.. Lamar or the Vcksburg Herald -

Senator Coke, of Texas, is alarmed by the
growth OF Independent or Anti-Bourbon SEN
timent in his State. He was elected Governor
not great many years ago, by a Democratic
majority of 100 600, yet of the situation in
Texas to-day, he says: Two been in po-
litical life great many years, but | can't re-
member time when there was such a spirit
of independence in our State as can be seen
there to-day. and it seems 10 spread in all di-
rections. For instance, we have about 200
Democratic papers in Texas that heretofore
have been Hat and unswerving in their sup
port of the Democratic platform and nominees,
but gradually they have been growing rest
less under the restraint, and are shooting off
on to various side tracks of one sort or anoth-
er, till it can hardly be said today that more
than three or four of them can be called re-
liahly interchangeable in their devotion TO the
party under any and all circumstances. That
looks as if tho Solid South were indeed
crumblng yet there is scarcely State in
the whole section of which the same thing
cannot be said.
