no power to generate vitality.
They're not sick enough to
call a doctor, but just too
sick to be well. That's
where the right kind of a

the doctor wouldn't do for
less than five or ten.

A Rare Form of NiaraS,nus Consumes Him
His Body For Science.
New YORK, Sept 27.-After months
of enforced starvation DR.. Stephen De
Wolfe, an eminent physician, died at
his home, No. 139 West Thirty-fourth
street, yesterday morning. He was re-
nowned for his treatment of pulmonary
mplaints. DR.. DeWolfe's ailment was
a puzzle to himself and his physicians.
He was unable to retain nourishment
and was absolutely without appetite
for food. 1t is believed gener-
ally among the medical fraternity
that his disease was an extremely
rare case Of marasmus. His mus
cular tissue wasted away gradually, and
the wasting of those tissues together
with his inability to eat blood and
muscle making food. caused a dimin-
ishing Of his vital powers and the de-
crease Of his adipose tissue to such an
extent that when he died little else
than skin and bones remained. He was
| large man in life and when in full
health was as vigorous as an athlete in
| training. He was devoted to medical
science, and when he recognized that
his disease would cause his death he
dedicated his body to the causes of man

THRILLING SCENE.


A Chicago Street Car Goes Through Draw
Themselves.
CHICAGO, Sept 25.-"Jump for your
lives! We're going into tho rfver!'
The driver of Lincoln avenue car No.
IT'S. of the North Chicago Street Rail-
way Company threw open ths door of
his car at 12:45 yesterday morning and
with q face as white as snow shouted
these appalling words to his passengers
"a dozen or more in number.
The passengers made . wild rush for
the doors Just as the last man sprang
from the step the car and horses went
over the brink and plunged into the
river.
The Clark street bridge had been
turned to allow the passage Of the barge
Howard just as the car came in sight on
the viaduct north of the bridge. The
grade from the viaduct to the bridge is
steep.
As the car reached the edge of the
viaduct the driver applied the brake.
It refused to work and the car began to
slide down the grade. When within
fifteen feet of the bank the driver threw
himself bodily against the brake. The
stopped. Then he threw open the door
and yelled 80 his passengers.
As the car tottered on the bank it was
seen that still one man remained inside.
He had been asleep and awoke as the
vehicle rocked on the verge. A cry Of
horror went up from the people who
had gathered around and his escape
from death appeared almost impossible.
AS the car began to slide into the stream
he made desperate leap and gained
the rear platform just in time to jump
to the street as the car toppled over
He was George McAdee. He was much
excited, but managed to say: Il was
asleep in the car when felt strange
motion and awoke suddenly to find my
self sliding toward the end of the car.
can't tell how 1 ever managed to es-
cape dreadful death. 1 just jumped
and found myself in big crowd with
out hardly knowing how I got there
When the car and the horses were
precipitated into the river the horses
were carried to the bottom with the car.
but came up minute later dis engaged
from the harness and from each other.
One swan up stream toward LaSalle
street and the other east. A tug in pass
mails, but it took fright at the boat and
swan away. After swimming desper-
ately for some time both tired and went
to the bottom.
j. j. Mccain, a switchman, and DAN
iel Riley, seeing the accident from
across the river, jumped into boat and
rowed over to where the car went down.
Mccain Invested himself of his cloth
ing and plunged into the chilly
water. The abutment threw a
shadow over the submerged car and no
person was visible. Mccain dived
through the car, feeling carefully for
any passengers that might have been
caught inside. He found no one and
returned again to the boat.
1t was rumored during the excitement
that two passengers, John Hartsough
and Dan, newsboy, had been drowned,
but this proved untrue.
An exciting episode of the accident
was the SUNNI oning Of brigade Of fire
engines and hook and ladder trucks.
The fire fighters did every thing they
could to save the horses, but being
without proper appliances, they were
forced to reluctantly abandon the task.
The car had turned end over end as it
went over the approach and stands on
end in the river.

TO RELEASE THE ANARCHISTS.
A Move to Free Schwab, FieIden and Neeb
From the Joliet Penitentiary.

A Move to Free Schwab, FieIden and Neebe
From the Joliet Penitentiary.
CHICAGO, Sept. 25. Another legal
step toward the release of the Anar-
chists now confined in the penitentiary
was taken in the Federal court yester-
day in the shape of a petition for writ
of habeaS corpus in behalf of Michael
Schwab.
This movement had been contem-
plated for some time, but the petition
setting up the grounds upon which it is
sought to release the Anarchists has
just been completed by Attorney Moses
Solomon, who appeared as one of the
attorneys for the prisoners at the time
of the criminal court trial. He says he
has associated with him in this case
General i. f. Butler, and letter from
the latter makes the asser ton that the
prisoners are entitled to discharge I'M
der the law
The reason Schwab appears alone in
the fight is because the law in his case
will cover those of Oscar Neebe and
Samuel Fie1den. and should Schwab
prove succe ssful in his application, then
the other prisoners will follow with
similar petitions.
Technical omissions in the wording
OF the process upon which Schwab is
held at Joliet and the point that con-
trary to the record he was not present
either in person or by counsel when
.entence was affirmed by the Supreme
Court Of Illinois form the basis of the
petition for habeas corpus
Judge Gresham, to whom the petition
was presented, issued a rule on Attor-
ney-General Hunt to show cause by
Monday why the writ prayed for should
not issue
