Harry Parks horribly Crushed Beneath
the Wheels of a O., L. & w. Train.
Harry Parks, aged %, c., L. &. w.
railroad brakeman, met his death yes
terday afternoon about o'clock, near
che Crystal glass works, Bridgeport.
Mr.. Parks was Of the yard force.
Cars were being backed on the switch
Just before the glass works, and Mr..
Parks occupied position at brake on
a car. In drawing the brake, the chain
broke, preclpitatiLg him under the car
wheels. Several cars ran over him,
cutting his body nearly in twain, aud
severing his right leg aud arm. Death
was instantaneous.
Undertaken w. j. Bratton, Of Bridge
port was notified, and the remains
were taken to his undertaking rooms,
and prepared to be shown to his aged
mother. 1t was an affecting sight
where the mother stood before the
terribly mutilated remains of her only
son, and her only support.
Coroner j. 2, Lowman was notified
and heard the testimony at the mayors
Office st 5 o'clock last evening. The
verdict was accidental death.
The dead man was q splendid work
man, unmarried and the only support
OF not only his mother, but an aged
aunt His remains have been removed
to his former home in West
Bridgeport.

who stood fair chance of breaking his
neck everytime be made the jump. He
landed on his head, on his feet. on his
back and on his face, and every time he
let go bis hold on the rope he would rotate
In the air like a top and strike the
water with thud which caused the
spectators on the bridges 10 hold their
breath until be bobbed up to the sur
face like a cork, when he would get
cheer. The fun" was kept up until
late hour, but no casualty was re-
ported. 1t is only question OF time,
however, until Coroner Schultze gets
call to this locality.
The Back" river is very popular
place for bathers. by reason OF the lack
OF habitations along the shore, aud ru-
NOR has it on the Island that not few
ladies venture a bath in the stream upon
occasions. The locality Is q treacher-
Gus one, however. to those not familiar
with II, as above the old wooden bridge
there are many deep holes made by the
sand boat, and further south the stream
contains many nasty snags and beds OF
soft and particularly sticky mud. The
Island boys know the good places"
however. and patroniZe them, and on
Sunday afternoons especially the river
is full Of them.
The bathing places in the creek are
not what they used to be. Time was
when there was famous swimming
under the tunnel bridge, at the little
island just above Baker street, In Ber-
rvs hole, and at another point 4 few
hundred yards further up, but the
growth Of the city, the building OF the
Terminal road and the construction Of
other improvements has put an end to
swimming at all these places but the
last named. The old bathing place at
the mouth OF the creek is also but
Renaissance, but many's the boy and
man who took nightly plunge of the
old saw logs at this point in years gone
by.

TWO DOEsLzAE&So

instantaneous Photography.

A recent improvement in photography
enables the artist to overcome to a con-
siderable extent the difficulty of preserv-
ing the natural expression of the sitter
during the necessary period of exposure.
1t seems that, notwithstanding this pc
riod has been greatly shortened in vari-
GUS ways, particularly by the adoption
tosuch an extent of the magnesium light,
with its unique advantages, nervousness
is so prevalent among those who sit be-
fore the camera that the operator has
still found the interval too prolonged for
the perfect accomplishment of his work.
Herr Haag of Stuttgart claims to meet
and overcome the trouble in question by
means Of change in the management
of the magnesium light, making for this
purpose what are called lightning car
tridges, which cause tremendous de-
velopment of luminosity and are set
alight in one.tenth Of second by means
of electricity. The SO called natural
photographs taken by this process are
said to preserve the mental expression
and momentary play Of the features with
extraordinary clearness and exactitude,
but the operation requires so much skill
and practice that it is said to be carried
on only by a single photographer in Ber-
lin.-Berlin Letter.

COULDN'T FOOL THE ROOSTER.
Tbe Farmer Tried to Stop His Growing.
but 1t Didn't Work.

When Charlie Trihes went out into the
country for his health, he put up at
Farmer Ellery Cranberrymarsh's place.
Farmer Ellery was something of a poul-
try fancier and had one Of those big,
melodious, gamy cockerels of Buff Co
chin extraction, with voice that was q
cross between the blowing Of geyser
and the sound of three tined whistle on
boiler factory. About o'clock every
morning the rooster would arise on his
perch, and standing on his tiptoes make
all the hens sick by letting go his voice
like the sound Of many waters.
II also broke up Charlie Trifes' slum-
bers, and he was unable to WOO them
back by cigarettes or philosophy. He
made considerable complaint to Uncle
Ellery, and the old gentleman hunted
over his poultrybook and read as fol-
lows.
"There is one simple device by which
a rooster can be reduced to complete
and acceptable silence. The bird can
not crow unless he is able to stand erect
and raise his head to the fullest extent.
Now If plank, or even lath, be placed
above his perch so that he cannot gain
an upright position, he cannot possibly
lift up his voice."
Here was the solution, and Uncle FL
lery arranged laths above all the perches.
In the early dawn before milking time
Uncle Ellery crept out to the hennery to
see how the device worked. The cock
had just awakened and was trying to get
upto turn his lungs loose in his usual mat
utinal vociferation, but he was unable
to raise his head. A hen opened one eye.
and seeing his dilemma smiled and
dropped off to sleep again. Uncle e.
lery chuckled.
But the rooster was not to be foiled.
Recognizing his dilemma, he dropped off
the perch to the floor, got good grip
on an adjacent crack in the boards 30 as
to take up the recoil of the crow, raised
himself mp on tiptoe and let out his
lungs in a away that pulled Charlie Trifles
out of bed and drove him to cigarettes.
Then after q satisfied "cut, cut, cor
r-r-r-r," the rooster kicked hen or two
off the roost and dropped off into con-
tented slumber.-Minneapolis journal.

Novel Stage Effects.

Some new scientific stage effects were
introduced into recent performance of
Wagner's "Die Walkure" at the Grand
Opera House, Paris. The scene where
the sons of Wotan, mounted on stecds
and brandishing their lances, are seen
in the clouds is described as very realis-
tic. The foreground is wild and rocky
and the clouds are seen to scud across
the sky. This effect is produced by pro-
jecting the image of cloudy sky by an
electric lantern on a curtain of translu-
cent blue cloth.
The continuous movement of the
clouds for half an hour is produced by
painting them on the edge of the disk of
glass 12 inches in diameter and rotating
the edge past the lens of the lantern.
Three lanterns are employed to blend
the clouds. The wild cavalcade of Wo-
tan's heroes is produced by line of me-
chanical horses, full sized and carrying
real performers. They are supported on
q scaffold and drawn by means of ca
BILE across the scene at a suitable eleva-
ton. The mounted men are strongly
illuminated by the electric light, and
thus rendered visible through the trans
lucent curtain representing the heavens.
The scene terminates by confagra-
ton in which great flames run along the
rocks, while thick fumes, Redeemed by
Bengal fire, spread through the atmos-
phere. The flames are due to fulminat-
ing cotton placed in advance on the
rocks and lit by the machinists. Lyco-
podium powder is also blown through
holes in the stage. Weird cloud effects
are produced by team.-Exchange.
