ABOVE assertions He states these facts without
asking single question. OF course, there are
others who title themselves pamsts. pretending

United States, and especially this city, abounds
with this class of fortune teers, but in reality
they know less of This science Lhan the individual

easily satisfied by being presented with few flat
terles, and. II such person actually hits upon
the truth of one individuals life, then

Talk With the Keeper of New
York City Morgue.
INCIDENT OF A QUIET DAY
Identified by Means of a Shoe String.
;cranks and Their Visits
to the Morgue.

Close TO the edge OF the East River, In
one corner OF the broad grounds OF New
York's greatest hospital, Bellevue, STANDS
a small, gayly painted. one-story struc-
ture OF iron and wood. The doors OF this
little house stand always Hospitality aJar,
and, from time to time great variety
and number of folk pass through them.
As to how many in year there are
who do SO OF their own accord, there
is no record, but of those whose incom-
ings and outgoiDgs are not voluntary
careful tally is kept. They number thou
sands and thousands every year, and they
are from all grades OF human society but
those who have been poor and In distress,
and i'll, and morally weak, are vastly in
the ma jority.
Many of them go in wagons OF one sort
and another, and, no matter how rough
the first part of the ride to the little
house, the latter part is over the smooth
pavement of East Twenty-sixth street and.
there is no joiting. Most of them go
away in a steamer that threads Its way
between the shores and islands OF the
East River, through He'll Gate and the
New York entrance to the sound, and the
voyage also is generally quiet, for the
waters are land locked, and so uDruffled
by rough waves.
But the travellers would not care one
jot IL the trips were rugged, neither would
