Suicide Bridge in Harlem.

The bridge over the Harlem at Third
avenue has always been a fayorite spot
with suicides, and the men who let boats
in that vicinity are never surprised at
seeing stiff" in the water. The officers
on duty are always on the watch for any
person in depressed spirits leaning upon
the rail. One hot night large colored
woman, carrying a laundress' basket,
was observed to drop her burden with a
sigh and lean over the railing to gaze
inssntis into t3le water. Tins officer on
guard watched her closely. She covered
her face now and then with her handker-
chief, and uttered deep signs. When she
took a light shawl from her shoulders,
folded and laid it in her basket the officer
thought it was time to interfere. He
moved quickly to her side and said: ''You

DEATH COMES pAlNLESSLY.
A Scientific Opinion That Will Be Con-
soling to All Humanity.


The signs of impending death are
many and variable. No two instances
are precisely identical, yet several signs
are common to many cases. Shake
speare, who observed everything else,
observed and recorded some of the pre-
monitory signs of death also. In the &C
count of the death of Falstaff the sharp
ness of the nose, the GOODNESS of the feet,
gradually extending upward, the pick
ing at the bedclothes, are accurately de-
scribed.
For some time before death indica-
tons of its approach become apparent
Speech grows thick and labored, the
hands, if raised, fall instantly, the res
piration is difficult, the heart loses its
power to propel the blood to the extrem-
tiles, which consequently become cold;
a clammy moisture oozes through the
pores Of the skin, the voice grows weak
and husky or piping, the eyes begin to
lose their luster.
In death at old age there is a gradual
dulling of all the bodily senses and of
many Of the mental faculties; memory
fails, judgment waivers, Imagination
goes out like a candle. The muscles
and tendOns get stiff, the voice breaks,
the cords Of the tabernacle are loosen
ing. Small noises irritate, sight becomes
dim, nutrition goes on feebly, digestion
is impaired, the secretions are INSULT.
Gent or Initiated or cease, capillary cir.
culatiOn is clogged. Finally the central
organ of the circulation comes to stop
full stop, and this stoppage means a
dissolution. This is the death of old
age, which few attain to.
Many people have an idea that death
is necessarily painful, even agonizing
but there is no reason whatever to sup
pose that death is more. painful thai
birth. 1t is because in certain proper
ton of cases dissolution is accompanied
by visible spasm and distortion of the
countenance that the idea exists, but il
is nearly as certain as anything can bt
that these distortions of the facial mus
cles are not only painless, but take place
uncOnsciOusly, In many instances, too
a cOmatOse or semi-Comatose state super

more or less complete inconsistencies

the statement that after few moment
of painful struggling, fear and anxiet,
pass away, and a state of tranquillit,

week at from Is to 90 cents brought
last week from 10 to Is cents. Butch
ers think that before May there will

The cause of these remarkable rises
is the almost unprecedented demand,
