Cases Of prolonged sleep are by nc
means so numerous that we can afford
TO pass over the mention Of an example
u this condition at present exercising
the minds of German physicians. The
patient is miner by trade, his name
being Johann Latus. He il an inmate
II the hospital Of Myslowitz, in Silesia
within whose walls, 1t is stated, he had
been asleep for some AZ months. Ii
seemed impossible to rouse Latus, but O
1ecent bulletin mentions that he has at
last awoke. Naturally the case is re-
ferred to the records Of catalepsy for it,
explanation, although it is pointed out
that A. months IS q very extended pc
Rod even for cataleptic sleep.
In this case the limbs were rigid
which of course pointed TO the exist
ence Of cataleptic condition, but the
body itself showed no sign Of being in
any unusual state. IL remained still
and placid; the chest rose and fell regu
larly, and the skin was of natural
color, the face being described as pre-
senting healthy appearance. In the
recent reports it was stated that Latus
had become less rigid rs regards his
body itself while slight movements
were noticed prior to his waking

SHE HAD LOST Her REASON
An Insane Woman's Long
Ride.
They Go From Store to Store Until the Jehu
Her Strange Story.

The jehu who drove pretty Marie Saerir
all around the city last night to find at the
end of the trip that she was insane and
could not or would not pay him probably
believes that blasphemy is at times justif-
able.
The haekman was pensively meditating
in the doorway of his vehicle. which was
standing near the corner Of Market and
Tenth streets. when Marie appeared.
He saw before him young and rather
pretty woman, neatly dressed in gray. A
jaunty little hat rested upon her brown
curls. and in one hand she carried
satchel.
She addressed him in the French lam
guage, saying that she wanted to be taken
to store on Kearny street She was taken
to the store.
This is not the place" she said. 81 want
to go to the corner OF Montgomery and Clay
Streets"
The backman drove her to the corner of
Montgomery and Clay streets and he drove
furiously
The fair passenger thrust her head cut of
the window as the horses stood still.
This is not the place." she said. Drive
to the corner of Eddy and Mason
She was driven TO that corner and when
there she declared thatit was not her desti-
nation.
Drive me to the corner of East and Mar
ket Thatis the place." was her next order.
The driver thought that something was
wrong with his 'fare," but he did not say
anything to her and drove her to the ferry.
1t was not the place she wished 10 reach.
'Pay me your fare, madam | have an
engagement and can drive you no farther"
said John.
Madam laughed at him and he. feeling G.
grleved, blasphemed. BE took her to the
Central police station. with view TO i'm
prisoning her for failing to pay him.
There she gave her name and said that
she was the wife of bookkeeper. She also
said that one of her children had been cut
TO pieces before her eyes and that her hus-
band had thrust her hands into the fire and
held them there until thew were consumed.
''rhe woman is crazy" said an officer.
"She has been in an asylum"
So Marie was laken into the prison, and
after telling many barro wing stories was
taken out and sent to the Home for In
ebriates.

RIVAL STEAMBOAT LINES.
The Union Company Fight
ing for It's Rights.
Judge Hebbard Agrees to Allow Oral Testi-
mony to Be Introduced Against Remov-
ing It's Clay-Strset Berth.

In Judge Hebbard's court yesterday the
case of the Union Transportation Company
against the Harbor Commissioners came up
for hearing. In this suit the plaintiff sues
out an Injunction against the Commissioners
to prevent them from arbitrarily removing
the berths of the plaintiffs Stockton
steamers from the Clay-street dock 70
Mission-street pier, thereby virtually de-
stroying competition in favor of the Cali
fornia Navigation and Improvement Com
pany, representing the Southern Pacific.
The pr0duce-dealers will not be able to
follow the Union Transportation to Mission
street. as it is away from a central frnit
location on the wharveS, and the Southern
Pacific will have the field to itself
J. c. Campbell appeared for the Union
Transportation Company yesterday and
said he would answer the affidavit filed by
the HarbOr Commissioners with oral testi-
mony. He said the case should be tried on
its merits.
Attorney Stratton, on behalf OF the Har-
Dor Commissioners, objected to any oral
testimony, and said the case should be sub
mitted to the court on affidavits filed.
Attorney Campbell said he would procure
the affidavits OF fifty persons, protesting
against the action of the HarbOr Commits
Sioners
The court said that in order TO pass upon
the matter properly it would be necessary
for him TO have the full facts of the case
and it should be tried upon its merits.
Attorney Stratt0n again objected to oral
testimony, which would give an opportu-
nifty to the injured produce-dealers to testify
against the removal.
Attorney Campbell then stated to the
court that he proposed to show that the
removal of the steamers is unjust; that the
Union Transportation Company is being
Disseminated against and in favor of the
old company.
The case was continued until week after
next, when oral testimony will be intro
duced,

HE FEARED THE OPAL.
Father Mollinger Believed That 1t Had
B2nefui Power.


Pitrsburg Press.
The belief that the opal sheds baneful
influence found a supporter even in the late
Father Mollinger. the venerable priest
physician of worldwide fame. Almost
since the opal was known superstition has
cIung to it, ana 1t has been so held by per-
sons in every condition of life. The way it
became known that the famous priest he'd
this superstition was as follows:
Last winter one of Alieghany's leading
physicians lay sick for months DR.. Cyrus
King attended him. The two had been
friends all their lives, and DR.. King watched
almost night and day until he brought his
friend back to health. On his recovery he
presented DR.. King with splendid opal
set in pearls The pin was a unique piece
Of jewelry and was very handsome.
DR.. King was also physician for Rev.
Father MolinGer. One night shortly be-
fore the great priests death, the doctor was
summoned TO the pretty parsonage on
Mount Troy. The aged priest vas weak.
and lay there apparently powerless. He
asked the doctor 10 come again the next
day, but Mr.. King informed him he was to
leave for New York that night.
The venerable priest was lying on his bed
with his eyes half closed. Just then an at
tendant turned up the light and DR.. King
moved forward TO say go0d-by. At that the
priest Caught SiSHt Oh tue cFST-C0aD 9lnS
colors of the baleful stone.
"What, an opalP he gasped. half rising
in his bed. ut is sure to bring harm to
yourself and your friends. Why Go you
wear it"
The doctor explained the story of the
gem, but all the time the venerable father
grew more excited Finally he said "If
you wear that stone to New York you will
never come back alive"
The doctor insisted on wearing Ii, how
ever, and the priest took the gem and
blessed it. Then, returning it. he said !:
when you come back will give you a pin
worth wearing"
On his return the aged priest was as good
as his word, and the doctor was presented
with magnificent diamond. Dr. King took
the pin home, intending TO remove the opal
and put in the diamond, but he forgot, and,
when hurriediy summoned to the deathbed
of the great priest he still wore the opal
The father at once noticed it and remarked ::
Its flashes seem to make me weaker; the
stone bodies ill.," Gradually he sank, and
the doctor bent over him to catch the faint
beating of his heart The fathers ewes
opened and rested on the titful colorings of
the strange stone, aud, watching it. his
spirit went out.
