CHARLES KERN,S FRIGHTFUL LEAP.
Diving Through Three.stOry Window
to the Pavement of the BOwery.


The only thing that was particular
ly noticed about Charles Kern yester-
day as he walked past the Office of the
Union Hotel, a lodging house at Hes
ter street and the Bowery, was that
he seemed to be sober He has lodged
there off and on for four or five
months, and not long ago was elected
from the house for drunkenness. He
is printer, "a years of age, single
man, and was capable of earning good
wages. The Office is on the third
floor. Kern passed through to the
reading room, which fronts on the
Bowery, and is lighted by five big
windows, and each pane is about two
feet wide, and twice as long. Kern
found James Biglin, lodger, alone
in the reading-room. He seated him
self at one of the tables, and rested
his head on his hands as though in
Respondent mood. He muttered to
himself, and Biglin heard him say
more than once that some debt or
other amounted to 80 and not $40.
When Kern next spoke to Biglin
it was to say Good by" AS he
spoke he leaped to his feet and ran
with great force toward the middle
window, which was closed. AS he
approached the window he lowered
his head, and, leaping as a man does
in making running jump and dive,
he flung himself through the pane Of
glass. Those who were in the street
saw him coming head foremost to-
ward the sidewalk. The heavy glass
broke the force Of his leap SO that
when he had passed it his body went
almost straight downward close to
the building. 1t struck swinging
sign.and turning slightly, struck first
on the feet and then on the back.
Moaning and covered with blood, the
man was carried to the basement to
await the arrival of an ambulance
Although Kern had carried away
nearly the entire pane Of glass, the
fragments gashed his face and hands
in many places, and either the glass
or the swinging sign made cut that
almost tore away his under lip. The
bones of the right thigh and left an
kle were fractured, and the right
thigh was dislocated. 1t was evi-
dent that he suffered from serious
internal injuries. 1t is not thought
that he can survive his injuries. He
was taken to Bellevue Hospital

Blaine's Partner Elkins.
Cincinnati Enquirer. !

Cincinnati Enquirer
About twelve Years ago young
man named Stephen B. Elkins was
sent to Congress as delegate from
New Mexico. He was blushing and
ambitious. Blaine, the Speaker, paid
so much more courtesy to his wishes
than he expected that the young man
fell in love with him. Soon after
ward Elkins, being ayoung widower,
began to Court a daughter of Sena-
tor Henry Davis, Of West Virginia.
He heard Davis talk about coal lands
near by. Elkins looked into the mat
ter and began to buy also. He drew
Blaine into the purchase. This
turned Blaine's attention to Virginia
railroads, and he became purchaser
of the old James River Canal and
organizer of railroad on its bed.
This yielded him a handsome for
tune of itself. Meantime mining in
Colorado leaped up, and Elkins went
into it with Mr.. Chaffee, his old as
sociate in the sale of the Maxwell
Mexican grant, which was the COM
mon basis of their wealth. They
both liked Blanche planked up his
money and came out ahead there,
too. He was backed up for the Pres
idency by these two men both times.
Now Elkins and Blaine are looking
for large extensions of the railroad
they have developed from Senator
Dayis's coal mines.

His Bank Account.

"How much has he 9ot?' the maiden said,
And her simpering mamma shook her head.
AS they gathered in his smiles to bask,
This was the question the maid would ask.
"Where does he keep it?" II banker said,
With a bright gold fob and big bald head
I'm railroads. or steamboats,, or banks, mines
Or in gsuzy margins where woodbinc twines:'
How will he use it?' papa said:
"Will he corner petroleum, pork or bread?
Will he go into Wall street bull ora bear,
Or buck the striped tiger within his lair:"
Where did he get it," An old fool said.
And all of them scornod him and cut him dead
Get it, good grxcious who cares dash!
However obtained, it is still clean cash,''

Special dispatch 10 The n. r. World.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-The follow
ing nominations were among those Sent
to the Senate to-day: Roland Worth
ington to be Collector of Customs, Adm
b. Underwood to be Surveyor and Dan
lei Hall to b Naval Officer in the Dis
trict of Boston and CharlestOwn.
Gossip is lively tonight over the nom
ination of Nr. Wort, ington, who Is ed
itOr Of the Boston Traveller, to be Col
lectOr of the Port at Boston. The matter
acquires geneTal interest from the fac
that it is in some respects q parallel Il
the R0bertDon case Of last year, with
Hoar occupying the place relatively
that Mr.. C0nkling did then. Collector
Boards term has just expired. Antici.
pating an appointment this spring
H0ar became active in Boards Interest
two or three months ago and made such
q thorough canvass of the Nassachu
sets delegation that he finally persuad
ed all Of the delegation excepting Messrs
Bowman and Gambler Of the House t(
visit the White House with him and ap
peal personally to the President fol
Boards appointment. Dawes was o
the party, but he and several Of the del
egation joined in the appeal more t<
please HOar than on Beartl's account
Dawes had ceased to love Beard when
Beard a year ago or less resented Dawes
meddling in the civil service practices
at the custom house.
