BRODIE'S LAST LEAP.
212 Feet Into the Hudson River-His
Ribs Crushed by the Fall.

212 Feet Into the Hudson River-His
Ribs Crushed by the Fall.
PoUGHKEEPsIE, N. Y, Nov. 9.-Steve
Brodie jumped from the bridge in
course of construction over the Hudson
River here at o'clock this morning.
He broke three ribs, and when he
reached the shore blood was running
from his mouth and ears. The Jump was
made from the west pier. Brodie
shortly afterwards took train for New
York, where he arrived at 8 o'clock.
Brodie, together with George Dwyer,
Pat Green, and w. F. Harding, arrived
at Highland, on the West Shore Rail
road late last night. This morning at 8
o'clock all left the hotel and proceeded
to Chestnut Grove, close to the western
terminus of the Poughkeepsie bridge.
Brodie, at Oils assembled to the
top of the bridge and walked
along over the structure in the
darkness and the fog unknown
to John Doxee, the night Waterman.
When he reached spot over the west
pier he Invested himself of his clothing
and, clad in tights and rubber suit,
and wearing lead-bottomed shoes, and
with heavy pieces of iron fastened
about his legs, he jumped into the Hud-
son from distance OF az IooU.
Dryer and Green were in a boat
waiting for him. AS soon as he rose to
the surface he waved his hands wildly,
and Green seized them and Brodie was
dragged into the boat. Blood was flow
ing from his nose and ears. He ex-
claimed: "On, l am hurt +"
AS quickly as possible he was landed
on the west shore and, with assistance,
his friends led him into the West Shore
Railway depot, where he tainted but
recovered soon after, all the time press
ing his ribs with his hands and moaning.
He believed three or four Of his ribs
were broken. When the 6:57 train for
New York came along he was put on
board and hurried to his home, one or
two of his party accompanying him.
Brodie may die.
He had jumped for a wager of $500,
and yesterday Mr.. Fox, of the Police
Gazette, told him that if he succeeded
ne would give him gold medal worth
$500.
New York, Nov. 9.--Steve Brodie, who
jumped from the Poughkeepsie bridge
this morning, arrived in this city about
10 O'Clock. He was examined by a
doctor, who found that he had three
ribs broken and his shoulder seriously
hurt. The doctor could not say at pres
ent whether he had sustained any in
ternaI injuries.

OUR scientists are sometimes up to
tricks, but they have purpose that
makes the tricks sometimes far-reach
ing in result. It is quite possible some
thing may come of dinner lately Civ
en- by DR.. Rush .Huidekdper, chief of
the Veterinary School Of the University
of Pennsylvania. The dinner was given
to number of his friends, at the Phila-
delphia Club. The doctor has long
owned a famous gray mare, named
Pandora. At the dinner one of the
principal dishes was on the card as
''filet la Pandora" 1t was eaten and
pronounced superb, leading to many
inquiries. The doctor quietly waited till
all had partaken and approved, when
he congratulated himself that his favor
tie mare was as popular as ever with
his friends "for," he said, "you have
just eaten her." No revulsions of feel
ings or sentiment are reported-only
the toast to the old mare was drunk in
silence. There is no reason known or
namable, why horse-fesh should be
wasted any more than cows flesh. In
France the old prejudice is pretty well

A GOOD English divine, going to show
the advantage of life like ours in pref
erence to one like Methusela, according
to the tradition, has made some figures
that are startling. He shows that II one
OF Noah's boys, after the famous flood,
han lived to be 500 years old. having
his first child at 80 and his last when
40. and lowing for one addition to his
family each three years, and supposing
them all to live, he could gather about
his ample board at the last 147 sons and
daughters. With reasonable degree
of prolific bearing, his Grandchildren
would number between 10000 and 12,-
600, and the whole little family would
be the two figures added together.
This estimate is moderate, if monogamy
alone be considered. But under poly
gamous system the figures would swell
enormously Some Of the consequences
possible under such state of affairs
are appalling.

A NOTABLE reform has taken place sud-
denly in New York in the way of abol-
fishing loaers and oglers from the front
of theaters. Dudes and handles and
statues are no longer allowed to present
themselves in vestibules and stare at
the ladies and make insipid remarks.
The change is specially welcome, as
there was danger of distinct breed Of
young men being created, with no
more brains than costumers' dumb
figures automatic clothes-racks. 1t re-
mains now for the churches to follow
suit, and abolish the somewhat more
animated, but more impairment, young
sters that loaf about church doors. This
nuisance is of comparatively recent
growth, and considering the place and
occasion is inexcusable. If the theaters
can work reform, the churches can al
so compel the dudes and Washers to
move

THE prospect now is that immigra-
ton will not reach the figures antici-
pated for 1888. The seven months end
ing July last, brought in 357, 125. OF
these lis, 600 came from Great Britain
$1,000 from the German states; II 600
were Hungarians and Bohemians; SO,
000 were Scandinavians; IS, 900 Italians,
and $4,000 Russians. The proportion
from these several lands does not large
ly vary from year to year. The con-
tn Mt from France is always small;
oi3.Is 5000 for the seven months esti-
mated; 5000 from Denmark is large for
the small kingdom. 1t is all in all a
motley mixture to be absorbed by a
young nation? More correctly, 1t Is
not a mixture at all, for very few OF
these natlonalities will peaceably blend
and CO operate in industry.

Snow in Kansas.

A dispatch received from Atchison,
Kas., on the 9th, says: The most phe-
nomenal snowstorm that ever occurred
in Northern Kansas began this morning
and continued furiously all day. The
trains are all delayed and the telegraph
wires are Frustrated in all directions
with the exception of one line to
Kansas City. In Atchison over 200
telephone lines are broken and so
tangled up with electric light wires that
the electric light works have been sus-
pended to prevent accidents. The
snowstorm is the heaviest that has oc-
cured here at any season of the year
since 1878. The extent of the damage
cannot be ascertained owing to the sus.
pension of telegraphic communication.

ONE of the curiosities of New York
City is the growing tendency to create a
group OF cities instead Of one, for as one
moves about the Eastern streets he goes
distinctly from one nationality to
another. On one street. or group of
blocks, one language is spoken, and on
contiguous locks another. Mulberry
Street and vicinity is wholly Italian in
spirit. in speech, in sports and employ
ments. Mott Street, little further on,
is The Chinese home, hive OF
Celestials There is also a b.
hemia, Poland, Hungary, Pal
estine, Will Ireland is pretty much all
over and everyw here. This grouping
of natlonalities Is seen also in marked
degree III Chicago, and IN lesser de-
