dealt with the need of young men for the

larry, instead of at any time, and no time
as is the case in many OF the churcnes
of various denominations.

PHYSICAL WONDERS.
A Man Utterly Oblivious to the Sensn-
lions Of Heat, Cold and Pain.

Mobile Cor Times Democrat
The correspondent was present YESTERDAY
at some experiments made by three renut-
able physicians on the person of n man
named Lartado, native of Trinidad. This
man seemingly is a wonder. He appears TO
be utterly oblivious to the sensation of heat
and cold and, in fact, experiences no feel
ing of pain, even when undergoing traat-
ment that would cause an ordinary man I'M
told agony. He is ) feet inches i'm height
weighs 100 pounds, and is perfectly sound
mentally and physically. His father was q
Spaniard and his mother an English
woman.
Your correspondent witnessed the man
run through his neck down to and grazing
the trachea a piece of steel wire one-eighth
OF an inch in diameter, TO which a most
powerful Salvanic battery was attached
and shifted from one current TO another
without any perceptible pain. but with con-
siderable acceleration OF pulse He passed
another large steel wire into his mouth end
through his cheek, in all directions and no
blood flowed. Another large wire was pass
ed through and through the large muscles
of the calf of the leg and between the hi
ceps muscles, in line with the brachial
artery and through the arm above the
wrist, between the two bones of the arm
ana other like experiments in different
parts of the body, all of which with SEEM
ingly no pain and no bleeding from any
place but drop from the neck, in fact
each of the openings made by the instru-
ment closed up as bloodless and as easily
as If the man was constructed of India
rubber. The physicians present declared
that 1t was the most wonderful exhibition
of freedom from all pain they had ever
witnessed. The man never fiinched during
any of the experiments, while the instru-
ments were jabbed into him with no more
consideration than if he had been a water
melon.

FELT DEATH COMING.
The Story of n Soldiers Presentiment
Which Came True.

From the Ohio State Journal
Andrew Jackson, sergeant-at-arms of the
Ohio house of representatives relates an in
cident of presentiment of death which cpme
under his own observation. He says:
when the war broke out l was clerlling in
a store over in Greene county. Charley
Shearer now one of our circuit judges, was
employed in the same store. His brother
Frank and l were nearly of the same. age.
One day 1 went across the street and en-
listed. l was only sixteen years old at the
time, but l was sworn in. Frank Shearer.
also enlisted and we went out together. He
and l We're messmates and chums. A finer
boy never lived. We went through the
hard campaigning of Gen. Sherman and
We're with him in the Atlanta campaign.
Just the day before the battle of Resaca
Frank came to me and said, Andy, l am
going to be killed tomorrow. / know that
will be shot early in the fight l laughed
at his fears, but he said he was telling the
truth. L finally became convinced myself
that he may have had a premonition and
importuned him not to go into the ba tile
He said it would not do for him to get a
sick leave, even If his health was bad-he
was just about sick-for the boys would call
him a coward. a drawer boy never lived,
and L told him SO. l finally got his con-
sent to let me go to the lieutenant colonel
and get him detailed for headquarters
WIN duillS the CoIHIilS engagement. L did
so, being frank with the colonel and telling
him everything. He at once granted the
request and wrote out the desired order
gave it to Frank that night and thought
he was safe.
THE next morning, however he refused
to obey, and insisted that if he failed to
go into battle with the rest of us the boys
would question his bravery. We went into
the engagement and Frank fell dead at the
first volley from the enemy. 1 placed his
body in a secure place and that night went
to old barn and tore off enough siding to
make him a rough coffin. We dug a grave
and buried him. 1 carved a rude head
board out of a piece of siding and cut his
anne, age and regiment upon it, l took a
careful description of the place and for
warded it with all his effects TO his brother
Charles. He came later on to Resaca and
took the body home for burial.
