ASLEEP FOB TwENrY-NINE DAYs.-The N1os
Of Attica, N. Y, said on Thursday about the
long sleeper in that town: "Mrs. Emma
Althouse is still asleep. this being her twenty
ninth day. Everything known to medical skill
was tried by DR.. Retel, the physician who now
has the case in charge, on Saturday evening
last, to awaken her, but the doctor finally gave
it up. A galvanic battery was applied, cold
water was thrown upon her face, and
other methods were tried in vain. The only
effect the battery had upon her was to force
her to open her eyes, but she never regained
consciousness, and with the exception of a
little more color, caused by feverishness, her
condition is about the same as last week."
