DISADVANTAGES OF WEALTH.
In Mr.. Creede's Case 1t Entails a Good
Deal of Correspondence.

In Mr.. Creede's Case It Entails a Good
Deal of Correspondence.
The rich have their peculiar troubles,
and most of all the suddenly rich. The
greatest of'all their troubles, as a rule.
is being harassed and bedeviled by peo-
pie who want part of their riches. Let
a man "strilSe it rich" in the mines OF
gain a few millions by some turn in
stocks, so as to make his name promi-
nent, and he is simply overwhelmed with
letters, and very often letters of such
character that he is ashamed to let them
be seen.
Such is the experience of the gentle
tleman for whom Creole, Colo, is named.
Mr.. Creole is now a millionaire, is a
bachelor and good natured, and has few
relatives. Hence the deluge. A sor-
rowful mother in Texas begs him to find
her hayward son, who is in Creole, and
give him some employment so he can re-
form. A lady of Fort Wayne, Ind, his
birthplace, wants him to do something
handsome for that city. The particular
thing desired is "an outward representa-
ton of a religious denomination that
comes down from the Pilgrim Fathers. +"
In other words, she wants a church edi-
fee that will not be inferior to the other
churches of that burg. Only $50, 900 or
50 is needed.
A maiden lady of New Bedford, Mass,
says in her second letter: II thank you
for the compliments of my photograph,
but feel sorry for your decision to re-
main as you are, but hope it will be best
for all parties CONCERNED. / would ask
you to be kind enough to return my
photo, not with any hard feelings to.

The nature of her first letter can easily
be inferred. A widow in Philadelphia
politely requests him to get her a posi-
ton as housekeeper in a hotel or some
thing, and send her a railroad ticket e

are far more sly. They apparently ain

New Treatment for Drowning Gases.

New Treatment for Drowning Cases.
Dr. Lsborde, Of Paris, has devised a
new method Of restoring drowned peo-
pie by pulling the tongue well out and
letting it go back suddenly. The papers
tell wonderful stories of his success, the
following being a specimen: A young
man was taken out of the sea on the
coast of Normandy and pronounced
dead by the doctors DR.. Laborde ex-
amined the body and found that the
extrenities were cold and the heart had
stopped. Then taking hold of the root
Of the tongue he drew it violently for
ward, giving it n succession of jerks in
order to excite the reflex action of the
breathing apparatus, which is always
extremely sensitive. At the end Of a
few minutes a slight hiccough showed
that the patient was saved. In addi-
ton to the usual restorative means DR..

work, and in 1856 he was put in The Sen
