HE LIVES. BUr CANNOT EAT
The Remarkable Results OF Won
fuI Surgical operation.

A Chicago special says james Burns,
n fine looking man about forty five years
old. told a remarkable story in Justice
Whites court this morning. He said
that in 1884 be was engineer OF
steamer. One night he WAS oiling the
machinery, when one Of the shafts
caught his arm and threw him across
the crank-pit There he was caught
bv the next revolution of the crank,
and crowded into the pit. There
were only six and a half inches Of space
left Wv the crank. and into this space he
was crushed 10y the repeated blows OF
the great pision-rod lie was still alive
when rescued several minutes later and
was carefully taken ashore, where ply
stefan said he could live hut few hours.
HIS skull was pronounced fractured IN
two places. The bones of his arms and
legs were in fragments. His spine was
badly injured, and from the abdomen a
large portion Of the muscles was torn
away.
As he still continued 30 breathe he was
carefully removed to Bellevue Hospital,
in Ncw York where the most energetic
efforts we're made to save his life. The
fractured skull was trepanned and silver
plates were used To replace the portion
taken out. The fractured limbs were
skilfuly adjusted the entire removal of
the left knee cap being necessary. Three
of the ribs were removed and the others
were set and silver tube WAS inserted
into the psophagus through the torn and
manQled tissues of the throat. by means
of which liquid food was administered.
He began to recover, and OF the end
of seventeen months was in COM
paraiively good health. On account
of the spinal injuries, however, he
was rs vet unable to stand or sit mp
unsupported. This difficulty WAS finally
obvated by the use of plaster OF Paris
Jacket which was strapped around the
body. and in this condition he left the
hospital. he suffered still, however,
from violent hemorrhage of the throat,
resulting from any excitement or over
exertion, and in st. Louis he was in a
hospital seven months on tins account
lie WAS released TO go to the Marine
Hospital at Milwaukee the other day,
and while passing through Chicago was
seized with another hemorrhage, when
he applied at the policc-station to be
sent to the County Hospital
Aside from a slight Imp in his walk
there is 10 outward evidence Of his
physical condition except peculiar
sound in his voice he says he suffer,
little pain and is only weak after a
hemorrhaqe. lie has taken no solid
food for over three years, and never can
again.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. February THE
captain and crew Of the ship Standard,
bound for San Francisco and now lying
at the old navy-yard, have been quench
ing their thirst with foul water, and are
now all seriously i'll. The heavy ice il
the Delaware river had detained the ship,
and the men probably owe Their lives To
this circumstance The tank in the
ships hold, which has capacity of
800 gallons, was filed about
ten DAYS ago, when the vessel
was expected TO sail. The contract
for filing the tank was made with il
waterman who was to draw his supply
from the city mains. Instead of doing
so lie filled the tank from the dock. \
big sewer empties its stream OF filth
into the river at the dock where the
vessel was lying. and the crew have been
drinking this foul water for the past ten
DAYS. All the men are now sick,
and Captain Percy and his family
are the greatest sufferers. The
CAPTAIN daughter is i'll with fever. The
illness of the crew was reported to
Health. Officer Patterson. who made an
investigation and found that foul drink
ing-water was at the bottom of the trou-
bile. An analysis of the water showed
that it contained 30 per cent. of poison
GUS matter. and the Health Officer SAID
that had the ship gone to sea all hands
would have persisted The tank has been
emptied and cleaned. Captain Percy
was not on board the ship when the tank
was filled and did not know that river
water had been used
The crew of the ship Rialto, also at
the old navy-yard, are sick, apparently
from the same cause. The bark Lady
Marin, which sailed two weeks ego, is at
Delaware Breakwater, her crew being
sick and unable TO go TO sea. 1t is sand
that the sickness has been caused by
drinking foul wafer
Health. Officer Patterson to-day Off
cially called the attention of the Board
of Health to the matter, and iurther
investigation will be made by that body.

IUErECg go Mgs. JOB.
Aier 5000 years Abuse She Finds
nn Able Defender.

Job was q wonderiully-aillicted man.
but as partial compensation for it ne
has had the sympathy of the human
race for 1000 yonrs. But II has not
been 30 with Jobs wife; nobody has
ever spoken a kind word Of her. on
the contrary, she has been held up for
forty centuries as horrible example.
But for all that We arc confident the
poor woman deserves a better place ia
history than she has ever occupied II
she was sOur-tcmpered she had enough
TO give al acid tlnge to her disposition.
She was made TO drink the dregs from
a very bitter cup, end it is probable
that she bore her tr5uble with about as
much cquanimitv as the average woman
would do.
In the fist place, she was Suddenly re
duccd from luxury to pcnurY. Any un-
fortunate woman who has suffered TINS
ordeal knows Just the frame of mind poor
Mrs. job was in.
In the next place, she was bereft of her
children There is no Rricf so burden
some as that which falls upon a mothers
heart when the grave hides her children
from sight
In addition to this accumulation of
s0rrOws she was left with an invalid hus-
band on her hands. job was covered
with boils, and experience has taught US
that there is no more exasperating pa
tlcnt than a man with boil on him.
There are wives. and good wives, too, In
this Christian land Of Ours whose lives
1. e.
and weeks at n time by a husband aud
one boil Just think, then, what tins
poor woman had to endure with hus-
band with perhaps from 800 to LOCO
boils on him. is it any wonder that the
woman encouraged her husband 70 ter
inmate his existence? The only wonder
is that she didn't cut her own throat in
despair.
But these were not all the troubles
that jobs wife had to bear. Her hus-
band IS friends came on visit to him and
took possession Of the house for six
weeks mt p time. Other women, and
good women, too, have had TO endure
the same affection, and they can very
easily account for Mrs. Jobs exhibition
of bad temper. Job got worried with
the three visitors himself, md vet he
didn't have to wait on them, to clean up
their rooms to wipe the tobaccojuice
from the parlor carpet every day. to
sweep out the mud they carried in on
their boots, and to submit 70 the thou
sand and one annoyances that a male
visitor gives the housekeeper.
Ii is about time that somebody was
raising q voice in defence Of Jobs wife
and saying a kind word for the poor
woman who, for 1000 years, has SUI
fcred the sings Of unjust criticism IN
accomplishing silence.
There are q great many jobs wives in
the world to-day. We meet them every
day. They may not have husbands
with boils on their bodies, but they have
husbands who go to the clubs of eve
nings They have husbands who are
selfish enough to devote all their time to
business and pleasure without consider
mg that a portion of that time Of right
belongs to the woman, the charm of
whose existence is his companionship.
The Jobs wives of to-day are the women
who are burdened with the cares and
sorrows of this life and who get no sym
patty. And their name Is legion.

was walking on the beach not very far
from the Cliff House, and had Just no.
ticed that an unusually large number
Of sea-gulls were flying over the sands
when hard substance struck me vio-
lentlv upon the head and staggered me.
Luckily my Lat was very thick and l am
blessed with q toieraoly solid skull. SO
soon recovered myself, and I was
looking about 10 ascertain what had hit
me, when ! was greatly startled by a
weird and ghostly futterng OF wings a
foot above me. a great gray gull had
narrowly escaped alighting upon my
shoulders. ne Just succeeded IN check
ing his impeuous descent as his feet
almost touched nae. With queer kind
of half-frightened cry he was again in
the air.
"But what had brought him SO close
to me | soon found out Lying on
the sand was the thing that had given
n1e the blow upon the head 1t was a
large, black mussel, and the sea-gulll had
dropped it from a dizzy height upon my
unofending scalp. / have studied the
habits of these birds pretty carefully,
and / know very well why be had done
it. He was trying to get at his dinner,
and as the shell of the mussel was still
unbroken, and wished To see him try
again, | walked a couple of hundred
yards away and then turned to watch his
movements.
"Seeing that the coast was clear, he
quickly flew back to the place where the
mussel had fallen, seized it in his beak,
and again rising high into the sir, he
let II drop. tie followed it closely as it
fell. keeping almost beside it during the
greater part OF the descent, and only
moderating his downward rush when he
was in danger of dashing himself upon
the beach. The mussel struck the sand,
but the shell was still unbroken, and,
indeed, ii was very evident TO me that
the soft ground that received it would
never lay il open. The gull's last chance
had failed when his booty struck my con
sistent head and bounded Off uninjured.
"The bird after another unsuccessful
effort, seemedto come TO this conclusion
