What the Pneumatoscop. VIII DO.

A well known Chicago physician has in
vented an instrument which is calculated
TO make a stir in the medical profession as
soon as its virtues and superb qualities are
made known. 1t is aptly named a pneu-
matoscope, and it does in wonderful man.
ner what its inventor claims for it. He is
confident that it will supplant the stetho-
scope, which until now has had no rival
1t is made of tin, in the form of the hour
glass, being really two cones cornected at
their apexes by a tube as large as ones lit
tie finger, thus forming continuous
whole
At one end or base are two rubber tubes,
designed one for each ear, and Immediately
beneath them is rubber tympanum de-
signed to magnify sounds. At the other
end is n broad rubber mouthpiece, an inch
or more in diameter. When the patient
breathes into the instrument, the sound
being greatly magnifed, the physician is
able to reach a most accurate diagnosis, as
different breath tones are, of course, pro-
duced by different diseases. When this
orifice, or mouthpiece, is applied to the
chest, its great virtues are made imme-
diately manifest, as, in reality, the pulsa-
tons of the lungs and heart may be most
accurately determined, and the conditions
of these organs reached through the in
tensiied magnifying of the sound.-New

IN AWFUL SUSPENSE.
Conductor Woods Life Saved in a Way
That Seems Almost Miraculous.

That Seems Almost Miraculous.
Ono hundred feet in the air, with the
falls roaring beneath him and heavy
train rumbling above him, was the posi-
ton in which William Woods, a conductor
on the j., NJ. and |. railroad, found him
self Friday at midnight. Yet, by mira
Gle, his life was saved.
Mr.. Woods had charge of the bridge
freight train, which hauis the loaded cars
from this city to the Jacksonville yards
on the way TO their northern destination.
On Friday night his trein consisted of
about thirty cars, drawn by a Mogul
engine. There were two b1akemen besides
himself, and at midnight the start was
made. Woods was at the front end of the
car next TO the engine, and was climbing
down the ladder TO step on the tender
Before he gained footkold. however, the
ladder, which was an old one, gave way
beneath the weight upon it. Like fash
he disappeared between the cars, and fell
through the narrow cross ties of the
bridge. Fortunately he succeeded in
grasping with both hands projecting iron
bar, to which he hung while the train
passed over him.
Mr.. Woods is not a strong man, and be-
fore half of the train was over his strength
was nearly exhausted. He called loudly
for assistance, but the roar of the falls and
the rumbling of the train drowned his
cries, and it is doubtful if a man passing
on the footway could have heard him. Sew
eral times he was on the point of releasing
his hold, and had he done so his body
would have been dashed TO pieces on the
rocks below. But the thought of his wife
and children at home, he says, imbued him
with additional strength at the critical
moment, and he managed to hold on.
When the last car had passed his arms
were stiffened and almost numb. Besides,
he was so weak that he could not draw
himself up between the ties, and it seemed
as if he had only escaped death under the
wheels to meet an equally horrible fall
upon the rocks.
Just as he had resigned himself to his
fate, and his stifIened fingers were slipping
from the iron bar to which he held, there
was a football on the pine boards above
him. Several glimmering lights appeared,
and moment later he was lifted to the top
by strong hands. The other trainmen, it
appears, had missed him soon after the &C
cident, and five minutes later they had
stopped the train and began searching
along the track for him. He had probably
hung there ten minutes before they discov-
cred him, and had they not done so just at
the moment they did he would probably
have never been found. The bracing air
soon restored him, and he was able to walk
back to the caboose.-Louisville Courier

so shamefully treated. The critics abused

The Philadelphia Dispatch alone would
have snuffed out the genius of a less per-
sistent person. 1.-The only decent thing"
said this paper, that Couldock did in
Macbeth was his fight and his death,
and if that had occurred in the first act
instead of the fifth the audience would
have been greatly relieved" Couldock
managed 10 weather the preliminary
squall, and after Miss Cushmcn left again
for Europe he went to the Walnut Street
theatre, Philadelphia, where he remained
four years as leading man, becoming a
great favorite. During this time the IA
nous Nine. Celeste played a star engage
ment at the theatre. and produced the
Willow COpse," in which Mr.. Couldock
appeared as Luke Fielding. This was
Couldock's first great hit. After the play,
answering call before the curtain, he led
Nine. Celeste forward. Instead of assum-
ing the ovation 10 be hers she presented
Mr.. Couldock TO the audience and said TO
him, This play belongs TO you and you
only" She did more than this. She pre-
scented him with a copy of the play, and he
continued to play in it for many years.
Mr.. CouldoCk was connected with one of
the oldest incidents in the history of the
American stage. He vas engaged TO play
for the season OF 1859 at Laura Keene's
theatre in New York. The season opened
with the Willow Copse." which ran one

Couldock. Sothern said the same This

them that the hacker wss in love with the

There are many Jews in Jerusalem from
Morocco, and these are of such a character
and belief that they have a strict class of
their own. They are not under the pro-
lection of any European power, and they
claim to have been in Spain at the time of
the crucifXion. They state that they were
driven from Spain by Ferdinand and Isa-

discovered America, and were forced to go
with the Moslem Moors across to Morocco.
