\ Long Sleep in Silesia.

most peculiar case Of prolonged sleep
is at present occupying the attention of
medical circles in Germany. A miner
named Johann Latus is an inmate of the
hospital at MyslOwitz, in Silesia, where
he was admitted four months and half
ago, and since then all efforts to wake
him have been fruitless. DIR. Albers,
the doctor attending him. is Of the opin-
ion that the apparent sleep is really a
state of catalepsy, though medical science
has on record no previous case of such a
prolonged nature. He has arrived at
this conclusion on account of all the
limbs being absolutely rigid. The ap-
pearance of the man, however, betrays
no signs Of this. The body lies quite
still, the breathing is regular, and there
is healthy color in the cheeks. In the
last few days the body has become much
less rigid, and the patient has even made
some slight movement, without, how
ever, the eyes opening or the condition
of apparent sleep being in any way dis
turbed. In the four months and a half
that the sleep has lasted the hair has in
creased in length, but the beard has Re.
manned stationary. Nourishment to tn
extent of two or three liters of milk is
administered daily by a tube insertel
into the thrOat.-Vienna Letter.

4 Monster Wheel.

The new 3O-foot fywheel to replace
the one which burst on the Amoskeag
corporation at Manchester, n. H., last
fall, has been completed and put in
position for use as soon as the engine
is in readiness. Twenty thousand feet
of brown ash was used in the construc-
ton of the wheel, as we'll as 1S,0002s Dy
81 5-inch screws, lot of iron rods, tons
of iron and quarts of glne. The small
wooden sections are fastened together
by glue and the screws, and to strengthen
the whole there are stout iron rods pass
ing through the sections in addition to
this. The screws are driven by steam
power. To make the whole mass as
compact as possible narrow openings
were left between some of the sections,
and into these We're tightly driven well
fitting wedges soaked in boiling hot
glue.

woman's Dainty Underwear.

Just what sort of underwear to assume
is enc question that troa5'lf &c average
woman very much She doesn't want
to wear SO much that it will be bulky,
and she doesn't want to wear too little
for fear she will catch cold She trie
first one and then another shaped gar
ment, and the wise woman is she who,
having at last hit upon that which is
most comfortable, makes it most dainty
and assumes it for good Very little
linen is used nowadays for ones lingerie,
the preference being given to cambria,
Victoria lawn, nainsook or percale. The
last is noted with tiny dots or wee fow-
ers in pink, blue or lavender upon the
white ground: Then when the garment
is finished the edges have triple seal
lop or sharp point embroidered in cot
ton of the same color as the figure This
material, with its simple finish. is liked
for sack shaped chemises, for night
dresses and for drawers. 1t is seldom,
if ever, used for skirts.
The fancy for silk nightdresses still
exists, but as there always have been
women who would wear nothing but the
clear white lawn or nainsook, and as
these women are many, the makers of
underwear are specially catering to
them. Very much more fine work, that
is, handwOrk, can be put upon a main
sock gown than upon silk one, and the
needlewoman can make more fine tucks,
fancy stitches, gatherings, hemstitch-
ing and drawing Of threads than ever
would seem possible. Mrs. Mallon in
Ladies' Home Journal.

Bimini and the Fountain of Youth

Bimini was a fabulous island firmly
believed in by the Indians of the An
titles, though they could give no further
clew to its location than that it lay some
hundreds of leagues north of Hispaniola.
On this island was the famous foun-
tain of youth which had the power of
restoring youth and giving perpetual
health and vigor. 1t was the search for
this fountain that led Ponce de Leon
and fernando de Soto to Florida, on the
outskirts of which the island was gener-
ally supposed to he situated.-St. Louis

Snow at New Orleans.

a fall Of snow in New Orleans is AN
astonishing event. Men would scarcely
be more excited If Clay statue were to
evolve into tine crater of an eruptive
volcano. That snow is most wonder
ful intoxicant cannot be matter of
doubt to any impartial or unprejudiced
observer OF the antics of OrleaTians the
other day. Foremost in the ranks Of
the snow drunk was the powerful small
bOy-the Bobby of the mansion, the
Mickey of Bank alley. Bobby scraped
from rose bush, lawn and doorstep suf-
ficient snow to make his first SNOWFALL,
and pelted Herewith nurse, coachman
and cook. Mickey scrambled with his
ragged fellows for the meager fall of
snow upon curbstone and pavement,
and as he waited with red shining nose
for the evening papers, he sent up many
a merry shout and SHE'D many whiz-
Zing SNOWFALL.
AS the fluffy shower began to freckle
the gloomy atmosphere about noon pc
destrlans stopped in their mad rush
along the thOrOug hfares to stand shiver-
ing beneath protecting sheds and gaze
curiously at the snow as thing rarely
seen. Clerks and shopgirls thronged
TO windows and showcases and fattened
their noses against the panes to see the
tiecks. Upon st. Charles avenue and
Prytania street one might have thought
from the number of ladies in shawls and
ulsters upon galleries and at windows
that some great procession was passing.
There was quite as much enthusiasm,
nervousness and color.
Not few of the schools and acad-
emies gave their pupils half holiday,
with instructions to see the snow and
take advantage of the opl )rtunity to
study the phenomena pertaining thereto.
There was not enough snow to cause
any fun about the exchange. Eleven
years ago, when the snow fell last, the
Cotton exchange men were like SO many
schoolboys. They rubbed each other 5
faces with snow, they had SNOWFALL bat
ties, and the stately and bewhiskered
cotton king thought nothing of being

The Heart Rests Eight Hours Every Day.

That wonderful piece of mechanism,
the heart, appears to work continually
day and night, from birth to death, but
in reality there are short pauses or rests
between each beat, which, though mi
mute in themselves, mount up in the ag-
gregate to eight hours out of every twen-
ty-four. These short pauses enable the
heart to repair the waste which constant
work entails and without which rests it
would break down.-Brooklyn Eagle.

THE BEST THAT Is POSSIBLE.

! We suggest to those Republican friends
who are antagonizing the Home Rule bill
! by urging the TELLER bill for an enabling
act that they ask themselves this ques-
ton: Would home rule, as provided by
the FAULKNER bill, be better than the pres
ent governments"
We take it that every one of them
will answer in the affirmative. They
will say that statehood is preferred, which
is true enough. They might continue and
declare themselves in favor of farm for
every head of a family and generous pen
sions to al who are unable to earn living.
The question is not as to what would best
/ please the people; nor as TO what would be
| best for them in their own esteem, but
what is the best thing that can be obtained
under the circumstances?
There Is not an intelligent person, Re-
publican or Democrat, who thinks it DOS
sible to get statehood during the present
national administration. Everybody knows
/ that that is not among the probabilities.
and it is, therefore, waste of effort to
attempt to get it, The President has
privately, publicly and officially declared
] hlS cpPoSAotOn W oldl6uOOQ 10 LQlS
territory at the present time, and the stu
alton is such that his will must prevail.
Furthermore, the Senate, which would
have to approve the bill for statehood, has
Republican majority, and O canvass
OF that majority discovers but three or
four who are ready TO vote for statehood.
We believe that bill for the admission of
Utah to the Union might go through the
Democratic House of Representatives, but
1t could proceed no further.
On the other hand, the Home Rule meas.
ure, Drawn with special reference to the
objections raised by the President and en-
tertained by his party, can easily pass both
houses and there is every reason to believe
the President will approve it, as law
affording relief until such time as the doubt
and distrnst in his own mind have been re-.
moved and the territory may be admitted
to the Union with safety.
We ask the Republicans to consider the
situation aud treat this matter in the Itch,
of the condition which confronts US. I,

certainly better than what you have and i,

IDAHO DEMOCRACY.

The Democrats in Idaho have started in
early, because they know that much work
is to be done; and it would seem from the
report of the meeting held in Boise on Fri
day evening that the start is good one 1t
looks well when $50 men sign the club roll
in one evening.
The HERALD does not think it can be mis-
taken when it says the Idaho Democrats
can recover the state in November if they
will work for it. Ordinarily the parties are
about equal numerically, but at this
time the Republicans are divided
among themselves, quarreling with
each other over the offices and the
spoils. A considerable fac ion has it's knife
whetted for Senator DUBOIS, who insists
upon playing boss after having taken every
thing in sight for himself and friends.
Others, and these include the more decent
and substantial citizens, are disguised with
many of the Republican officials, especially
those in the south aud southeast, where
corruption and incompetency in office are
freely charged. Nobody undertakes to
disguise the fact that the old time jealousy
between the Republicans of north Idaho
and those of the south is burning as iercely
as ever, although there may be less noise
about it.
IL was several years ago when
the Republican party first played
monkey to the Democraoy's Cat, AMI the
drama has been continued at every election
since. Now the Democrats have concluded
to fetch chestuuts from the fire only for
themselves. Friday evenings meeting at
! Boise was the first OF a series to be held
throughout the state for the purpose OF
forming clubs and perfecting the party Or
ganlzation in all its details. The beginning
Is hrst-class and we predict tina. the result
will be satisfactory victory at the polls in
November. There will certainly come
such victory if the Democrats will work
and will avoid the ''entangling alliances"
with the enemy which il the past have
proven so disastrous.
