New York Gossip.

New YoRK, May 13.-The number and
enormo size of the transit schemes now
proposed in New York are almost appalling
when viewed in the aggregate. The elevated
railway companies of the two cities propose
to unite their lines by two additional
bridges over the East river which would
cost $24. 600, 900. One of these will almost
certainly be soon begun. Another bridge
ia proposed to run from New York to Long
Island City across Blackwelrs island, at a
cost of several millions.
A company is incorporated to tunnel I'M
der the East river at Grand street. The
scheme ia to let the cars slide down the
slope on n side with sufficient force to
carry them nearly up the slope on the other.
A tunnel is proposed by Austin Corbin and
his associates to run unde the East river
from the Battery. This would be only the
first step in the construction of a complete
system of underground routes through the
whole city and costing something like a
hundred millions
A bridge and O unnel are proposed by
rival corporation to cross the Narrows.
A huge suspension bridge for western rail-
roads is proposed for the Hudson. 1t
would have a span about $500 feet long
and wide enough for four railroad track,
and would cost some $4,000, 600. There is
every prospect of a speedy beginning Of the
work.
Another H dson river bridge is proposed.
but probably only as n dog in the manager
affair, never to be built. The Hudson river
tunnel is about two-thirds finished and a
small force Of men, about a hundred, / be-
lieve, are digging away at the Jersey head
ing, The company has been recognized
with British capital and a couple of sirs
are bossing the engineering work.
The rapid transit schemes are as numer-
GUS as flies will be next month. Jay Gould
wishes and will probably obtain permission
to put a third track o N his elevated lines.
The old arcade railroad plan is not dead yet
scheme which is only Objectionable because
everybody on Broadway seems to be opposed
to it and because 1t would cost almost I'M
counted millions. The great Peoples rail-
road project for a high elevated railroad to
run on the tops of the houses, through
block %centers, eleven miles north from the
Battery, and on the surface nineteen miles
further, with two tracks for way and two
for express trains, would cost another hun
dred million or more. The line for the
route has been surveyed, but work has not
been begun.
These which nave been named are all
schemes of some standing in the financial
world. There are nan others more Chi
merical. Putting all together-those which
are prophetic of future accomplishment
with those which will never be carried out,
probably a sum rs great as the national
debt at its greatest is represented by the
expense estimates of tho plans proposed to
bring New York business men twenty min
utes nearer to their dinners.

The Decline of Memory.

Marvellous stories are told of James G..
Blaine's power of memorizing facts. faces
and dates, and there are others who can
carry in their heads the most complex and
long-winded affairs. But they are rare ex-
captions. Most busy mon find that they
lose all recollection of their affairs, that as
they grow more busy their memory fails
them and they live, move and have their be-
ing in the constant guidance of a memoir
andum book. Chaunoey M. Depew isn't
the only man who keeps a collection OF
funny stories in a scrap book.
l know a young man whose business it is,
among other things. to walk along the shop

OF keen judgment. and finds that he must
turn up in New York every winter to at
tend the opera, much as seals come up out
of the water to breathe. But for more than
half of the year he lives fifty miles out of
town, in a little village on the south shore
of Long Island, where he woos independ-
ence, raises cabbages and goes fishing. To
write half the day and work out of doors
the other half seems to him the ideal
way of spending the open weather.
His house is as original as aim

thirty, is about all there is of it down stairs.
In that room, which serves for all purposes
except a kitchen, are a piano, books, music,

Brought BACK From Death.

Such accidents as that which terminated
the life of the Rev. DR.. Boutwell,, of Brook
lyu, are by no means SO as might
be supposed.
Not long ago a little girl away up in
Northern New York inhaled a bean, which
lodged in n bronchial tube, precisely as did
the cork i'll the case of DR.. Boutwell,. Her
parents, who are very wealthy, telegsaphed
to New York and a specialist was sent up.
He brought tho girl to Il hospital here, her
parents accompanying her. Tho child had
paroxysms, during which she was scarcely
able to breathe Mt all, but between them
was comparatively comfortable, though
certain to die in time if not relieved. A
physician sat by her with instructions to
perform t~racheotomy at the first symptom
of the approach of a paroxysm. A carriage
stood in waiting to convey to the spot sew
eral assistants when needed.
The choking fit came, the carriage set off
at a gallop for the assistants, the operating
surgeon laid the child upon the table and
administered ether. An opening was then
made i'll the %windpipe from the front of the
neck and a long, rather flexible rubber tube
procured and thrust down the bronchus to
the point where the bean lay lodged. Press
ing the end of the tube against the bean
the surgeon sucked at the other end until
the bean, much swollen and somewhat
softened by the interior moisture of the
lungs, was drawn into it. Then he slowly
raised the tube. just as it was withdrawn
the bean fell back into the %orifice, but n vi
olent fit of coughing elected it again in two
pieces. Then the child lay breathless and
apparently dying.
The child's parents had witnessed the en-
tire operation. At this iuncture the fathers
face turned CHASTITY pale and the mother
shrieked, MY child is deadr' But she
wasn't. The doctors induced artificial
respiration and sewed up the wound, and it
wasn't 30 very long before the mother was
kneeling on the floor with hands upheld TO
heaven and tears of gratitude streaming
down her cheeks.
There are times when it is grand to be a
doctor.

Tho Son of His Either.

A youngster in whose doings Wall street
takes a keen interest is Eddie Gould, as he
is usually called. He is a heavy faced,
black bearded, sullen looking young man,
who is distinctly less in his millionaire
fathers good graces than the eldest son,
George, and no wonder, since Eddie has
more than once been seen openly selling Sc
~curities that the old man was trying to
bull. This incident might have sug-
gested the stock broking scenes in the
Henrietta" but probably didn't.
Wall street life ages u man very rapidly.

Jesse ~Seligman's Wish,

Jesse Seligman. the banker, is a man of
very quiet and transformations tastes, and as
sensible as he is wealthy. l saw him once
at n Hebrew ball gazing with amused inter

were radiant in raiment more costly than
the purple and the linen wherewith Solo
mon was arrayed, and on the neck of the
woman and in the shirt front of the man
cleaned diamonds which must, if genuine,
have cost a big sum.
Mr.. Seligman could hardly have been the
only observer of the pair. but as they left
the floor to go to the refreshment room |

twinkle in his eye that belied his solemn
tone, II wish | could afford to buy such dia-
monds as those"
