broken. In 1856 he was shot in
the ankle in a fight on Mississippi
steamboat. During the time hi
had Aaiatic cholera, yellow fever
and, in Central America, the spot

with him four months and "peeled
him like a snake.n 1t was not un
til the war broke out, however
that this remarkable man had full
play for his talents. Joining the
army he was bayOneted in the left
knee in the battle of GAINESVILLE
and captured by the Confederates
During his Imprisonment of three
months he was sunstruck and
afterward nearly starved to death
and was only paroled when his
captors supposed him to be with
out the ability to do further ser,
vice. In a long march the veins in
his left leg burst, and he almost
died of hemorrhage. At Chancel
lorsville he was knocked down by
aspent cannon ball, and while lying
PROSTATE was run over by a field
piece of six-pound callbre, which
passed directly over his head and
body. After recovering again and
getting his discharge he under

not uncommon accident the butt

Hard to Kill.

The extinction of the "vital
spark" physicians agree, is prob
lem that is never solved until the
final extinction is absolutely de-
termined. 1t is easy to tell that u
manis dead, but it is very seldom
certain that he will die, since there
are cases of recovery that no sane
man would think of predicting.
For example, no person would
have supposed for "a moment that
the man in in Massachusetts, whose
case has often been quoted would
have lived twelve years after hav-
ing tamping iron blown directly
through his head, entering under
his jaw and coming out through the
roof of his skull; yet he did live
for that time, and even enjoyed
good physical health. And II
would not occur to any ordinary
man that he could live long with a
hole in the side of his stomach,
vet if st. Martin had not done that
very thing the physicians agree
that comparatively little would be
known to-day of the marvellous
processes that 60 on inside the
laboratory Of the stomach. Some
four years ago boy in Paterson
Nd, picking up shavings ina car
penter's shop fell backwards
against buzz saw that was revol
Wing with immense rapidity. Re
covering his equilibrium he walked
unaided to q drug store near by
and asked to have his wound dress
ed. He complained of having ter
rible headache, and this was moi
doubted whenit was found on ex
animation that the saw had divided
his head almost in two. One emo
of the cut was halfway between
the forehead and the crown of the
head, and the other end was jusi
at the base of the skull. A right
line from one end to the Other
would have passed almost through
| the middle of the head. But thu
saw was o small one and its out
side edge had beyond a question
cut far beyond such q right line
Yet the boy lived several days ant
retained his consciousness to th'
time of his death. 1t was sup
posed that the saw had passed be
tween the two lobes of the brail
but that point was never settled
positively, as the boys father re
fused to allow a post-mortem ex
animation In reporting this case
the writer learned of two men boil
living in Patterson at the time
each of whom had carried bullc
in his brain for a number of years
One of them had been shot i'll TIL,

Both of these men enjoyed goo'

There are very elaborate ae-
counts of Mr.. Freddy Gebhardt at
Chicago. The Inter Ocean sket-
ehes him as follows:
A pretty little man with nice
fancy gold.headed cane, a short
coat, and his pants so tight you
could see the moles on his legs,
walked through the rotunda and
office to the cigar stand. He
bought a package of cigarettes,
lit one and threw the rest away.
This was to show the people, who
were staring at him, that he didn't
care for expenses.
"That's him. was whispered
through the crowd at the counter.

INDIAN BLOOD DYING OUT.
1t is evident that the Indians
proper are rapidly decreasing, and
that intermarriage with the whites
alone saves them from extinction.
Any confinement destroys the In
dian. With the full blood it is Ell
ther a wild unrestricted life or ex-
tinction. The experiment of civil
ling full bloods will never succeed.
You can tame them to submission
and teach them to earn very
coarse livelihood, but without con-
tact with whites they will die out.
The Delawares are notable evil
dence of this. In 1867 most OF
the Delawares united with the
Cherokees, paying 81 per acre for
16O acres for each Delaware, and
paving into the national fund a
sum sufficient to equalize them.
The Delawares thus paying num-
bered over 900. From the eoufu-
sion of Cherokee records. | could
not find the exact number. Until

Positive journalism.

That negative journalism is dying
out is fact not to be denied by the
observant. The reader who will ex-
anime any ten or dozen of the lead
ing papers of the world to-day, and
compare them with like number of
like character thirty or fifty years ago,
will be struck with the greater posi-
tiveness of more in this era and the
growth that has led up to it. AS it
is the affirmative, progressive and pos
itive-idead men who move the world,
SO it is the positive and affirming jour
nails that reflect the spirit of the age
and clear the way of public thought.
In this day men are annoyed by mere
denials, and negations, and doubts
and hopes. What they demand Is the
force and vigor of conviction; the
strong, earnest and positive announce
ment of belief The few newspapers
of the day that still venture upon
opinions like schoolboy upon thin
ice are estimated correctly by the
reading public as without influence.
This is a strong and thinking period,
and the press cannot be less vigorous
than the time and hope to keep pace
with it. But this element of journal
ism must not lead to recklessness for
the mere sake of dash and apparent
vigor. On the contrary, it calls for
enlarged information, greater mental
effort, greater conciseness of thought
and expression, and for just as much
positiveness and certainty in fact and
in Judgment, as in the affirmative life
of the columns. What is true of par
ties and creeds is true of journalism;
what is true in business and COM
merce, at the bar and in the pulpit, is
true of the newspaper, and that those
are felt who deal blows rather than
those who ward them otf.-Sacra-
mento Record Union.

4 Laly's Experience With Trousers

"My dear Clara Belle" said she in
the strictest confidence. 81 got a
chill t'other day, and made up my
mind to provide myself with one of
those combination suits of under
clothing, with the vest and drawers in
one continuous garment, instead of
being separated at the waist. |
bought some heavy cashmere and got
paper pattern that l thought would
fit me. l had been told that this ar
rangement was extremely comforta-
BILE, the weight being suspended from
the shoulders and there being no belt
to the drawers. That promised we'll,
but just note the first result. Have
you seen the funny trousers some
times worn in the minstrel shows, with
the seats sagging almost to the floor.
That was the way with my combina-
ton suit. The proportions OF vest
and trousers, you understand, did not
answer my requirements. Well,
made such alterations as seemed Judi
cious, and l have got the peskv thing
on now. | feel as if ! was carving
myself over my shoulders. The body
being SO much shorter than my own, /
am fairly bent by it, as though was
the bow and it was the string. l
would not know which way | was
walking if l did not look down to see
the direction my toes pointed. You
have heard of the mother who made
her boys panties with no slack be-
hind, SO that every time he leaned for
ward in the doorway he found himself
boosted down the steps? Well, my
dear, that is exactly my predicament.
So don't ask me to be seated"
