ONLY A DROP OF WATER.
But Even Sandow, the Strong Man, Coul,
 Not Stand It.

 But Even Sandow, the Strong Man, Could
 Not Stand It.
 Pittsburg Dispatch
 One of the Chinese modes of punish ment, especially when a confession is wanted for a criminal, is to place him where one drop of water will fall upon one certain spotsin his shaven crown for hours, or days, if necessary. The torture this infiicts is proved by an experience that Sandow the strong man, had.
 When he was in Vienna a few years ago a school teacher bet him that he would not be able to let a half-litre of water drop upon his hand until the measure was exhausted. half-litre is only little more than a pint Sandow- laughed at the very idea of his not be- ing able to do this. So half-litre meas ure was procured and hole drilled in the bottom just sufficient to let the wa ter escape drop by drop.
 Then the experiment began. SandoW' laughed and chatted gaily at first. The schoolmaster kept count upon the num-, Der of drops. At about the 200th San- dow grew a little more serious. Soon am expression of pain crossed his face. With the entrance into the third hundred his hand began to swell and grow red. Then the skin burst. The pain grew more and more excruciating. Finally, at the 420th drop, Sandow had to give up and ac- knowledge himself vanquished.

A Young Swimmer Is Pulled Under by al

A Young Swimmer Is Pulled Under by an
 Alligator at New Orleans.
 New Orleans Times-Democrat.
 Did you know that George Gould had been bitten by an alligator, carried sev- eral feet under the water and had bare ly escaped with his life?" asked Captain Calvin of the hospital last night. Last Saturday afternoon three young men, who work in the Poydras maket, one of whom Is named, George Gould, af- ter finishing their work went to the riv- CT to take a swim. They went to the head of Lafayette street. and descend ing to the stringers below undressed themselves. They were sitting with their legs dangling in the water. when all of sudden an alligator made his ap- pearance and grabbed Gould by the foot. The young man screamed, but his com panions thinking he had fallen into the water. laughed at him. They very quickly changed their tune, however, when they saw that young Gould did not reappear.- They became alarmed them selves then, and were going for assist ance when Gould's head came to the top of the water. He blew several pints of water out of his mouth. grabbed a pile and climbed up to the stringer and told his companions his experience with the alligator"
 Gould said that when the alligator first grabbed him he felt stinging pain go

Astronomers Feared That the Planetary
 Gearing Was Out of Order.


 Astronomers Feared That the Planetary
 Gearing Was Out of Order. St. Louis Republic.
 There was great astonishment in astronomical circles in the city of Berlin not long ago. The moon had gotten out of order and refused, apparently, to fol- low the course which had been marked out for her for all eternity. The situa- tion was grave. Calculation upon calcu- lation was made by the savants, but no solution of the phenomenon seemed to be mathematically obtainable. It was dis covered that both the fixed stars and the planets were affected in exactly the same way.
 The whole universe was out of order! Fortunately the poor, ignorant public had not yet gotten wind of the affair." when it occurred to some one of the astronomers that the fault might be in the observatory itself, and not in the general machinery of the universe. The observatory of Brussels is Of compara- lively recent construction. It is supposed to have been built in accordance with the latest attachments of science and art, but, unfortunately, it was placed, con trary to the biblical admonition, upon a hill of sand and the foundations which the plans required to be some 30 feet deep, were only 12 or 15.
 The sparing of labor and material caused the building to lose it's level and to slip gradually away from it's proper position. The movement threatens to continue But as to the conduct of Dame Luna, the scientists are completely re- assured, having revised their calcula- tions with due allowance for the en- forced bias of vision.

He was taken several feet below the wa ter. Gould didn't know how far, but the hold upon his foot was finally released, and the alligator swan away and Gould came to the top exhausted In telling his story at the hospital Sunday he said that he thought his last day had come, and 1t would be a long time before he went swimming in the river again.

to an excessive degree. Their most press

rarely anything beyond that. In the
woollen goods division a slow business
and duh tone have been the features, but
here, too, prices are steady.
