LIVES AFTER HIS HEART STOPS
Physicians Save a Man After Death
Has Apparently Ensued.

4
Joseph Rheinhardt, aged 80 years,
cook by occupation, was as good as
dead for about rs minutes at ST. Louis
the other evening, but is now alive, and
hopes of his recovery are entertained.
Rheinhardt was Frustrated by the heat
in boarding house ON First street and
st. Clair avenue, East st. Louis. His
friends did all in their power to revive
him, but without success. His pulse
beats were very faint and at last ceased.
No motion of the heart could be de-
tected.
The patrol wagon was summoned
and Rheihardt was hurried TO st. Mary's
hospital. The attending physician ex-
amined him and was puzzled. There
was no sign of life. yet the body was
very warm. Thinking there was still
some life in the body. the physician
used all means within his power to
restore the man. 1t was some time be-
fore the heart began 70 beat. Rhein-
hardt drew his breath in gasps for few
minutes, then he began to breathe reg
ularly. The work of taking him to the
hospital took about Is minutes, and it
was fully ten minutes after he reached
there before he began to breathe.
Rheinhardt was Frustrated by the
heat in st. Louis several days ago, and
was taken to the city hospital. He
was discharged and went to his board
ing house in East st. Louis. The sun
proved too much for his already weak
ened condition, and upon reaching the
house he sank to the floor FRUSTRATED.
Some of the friends of Rheinhardt say
that on several occasions when he has
been i'll his heart has stopped beating
for remarkably long time.

Chair for Piazza work.

One of the essentials for piazza work
is comfortable chair with just the
right slope to the back, which must be
high enough to afford a rest for the
head when one feels inclined to medi'
tate or repose. The ordinary piazza
chairs, with split seat and back of white
wood shellacked or vanished, are just
the thing for foundation, being mex
pensive and firmly made. Select one
without rockers, but with broad arms.
Get carpenter to make shelf about
IL inches wide, and have this secured
firmly to the right arm. This will serve
as small table, either asa resting place
for books or for sewing materials. Be-
low this, against the rounds of the
chair, attach with strong cord or wire
a wicker basket of good size, with ample
accommodation for the weekly mend
ing, fancy work, crochet and knitting
work, or papers, magazines,writing tab
lets. etc.-Househo,d

NOVEL HOSPITALITY.
How N Wealthy freshman Added TO

the Sum of Human Enjoyment.
A man with an unusual idea of hos
pitality was Mr.. Mathew, of Thomas
ton, Ireland, who lived in the earlier
years of the last century, says the San
Francisco Argonaut. Mr.. Mathews in
herited an annual income of about $685.
900. For many years he lived abroad
in very frugal manner in order to ac-
cumulate an amount that would enable
him to indulge in form OF hospitality
in his own country in harmony with the
plan he had devised. His house in Ire
land might be compared in size with
modern hotel. Each of these he wanted
to visit him had suite of apartments
and ordered his meals at the hour that
best suited him. He could eat alone
or he could invite others to join him.
All the visitors hunted, shot, fished,
played billiards OF cards at will, and all
brought their own horses. There was a
regular bar where drinks were served
without stint. Mr.. Mathews as host
completely effaced himself. He min
gled with his visitors as one whose
stay was as definitely fixed as theirs.
In fact, he conducted his house as if
it were hotel, with the exception that
all was without charge. No servant
was allowed to accept tip. Violation
of this rule was followed by the instant
dismissal of the offender. This estab-
ishment, unlike other country houses
Of Ireland of the period, was conducted
with perfect order and without waste.
His hospitality was lavish, and attract
ed to Mr.. Mathew all of the more IA
nous men of the time. The great sum
that he had put aside during his resi-
dence abroad enabled him to indulge
his hospitality instincts until he died.

TWO VALLEYS OF DEATH.

South of California.

South of California.
The Valley of Death, or Poison valley,
as it is sometimes called, is an oval
shaped hollow near the summit of a
mountain on the Island of Java. 1t is
about half mile in width and IS feet
deep, and its atmosphere is loaded with
carbonic acid gas. 1t has not been
thoroughly explored, says the Phila-
delphia Times, for, as the bones of
beasts, of birds and of some human be-
ings may be seen from its borders, even
the most adventurous persons do not
care to run the risk of breathing its air
for any time.
There is also "death valley" in Inyo
county, Cal, between the Paramint
mountains and the Amarogosa range.
lids forty miles in length by eight miles
in breadth, and its lowest part lies $50
feet below sea level. It is known that
every part of it is a desert, but its
topography and its climate have never
been accurately observed for the reason
that human beings cannot live long
enough in its atmosphere to obtain the
needed facts. In the coolest and highest
part the thermometer often registers
125 degrees Fahrenheit, and this ex-
cessive heat may be the cause of the
deadly nature of its air, but as the val
ley is of volcanic origin it is surmised
that deadly gases may issue from the
cracks in the rocks. There are several
other places in the west where the heat
is SO excessive that people cannot live

HUNTING FROM ELEPHANTS.
Recently Tanned Beast That Would
stand ANY Charge.


Stand Any Charge.
One of the first things the maharaia
did after our arrival was to hand to
each guest slip of paper on which was
written the name of the elephant al
lotted to him for shooting purposes,
which bore on its back the structure
known as "howdah," to carry the
shooter and his guns. AS these ele-
plants were necessarily large, and the
howdah is high, the oscillation was
much greater than if one were seated
upon plain pad upon the elephants
back, or on one of the smaller ele-
plants, which have smoother gait
We usually, therefore, went to the
cover, or jungle, upontone of the "beat-
ing" or "pad," elephants, which after
ward during the operations of the day
were employed in long hne to force
the rhinoceroses and other animals out
of the dense thickets in which they
live.
The howdah-elephant which the
maharaja allotted to me was named
"Secunder.' Three years previously
it was an uncaptured wild elephant
ranging at liberty the jungles of Ben
gal. 1t was fine female, between nine
and ten feet in height at the shoulder,
with short but perfect "tushes" pro
jecting few inches beyond the upper
lip. There are other elephants In the
maharaja's stud which have been tanned
more recently still. 1t was very gentle
and obedient, and perfectly fearless,
and, therefore, very valuable as shoot
ing elephants; as, for example, on sew.
eral occasions during the following
three weeks it stood without flinchine
the charge of wounded buffalo, tiger
and rhinoceros, thus enabling me to
take steady shot. Almost all ele
plants show great fear of the Indian
rhinoceros; there are few that will not
turn tail when they scent their enemy
and fewer still that will stand the
crash and short snorts that precede the
charge.
About breakfast time each morning
the elephant told off for each guest was
brought to the neighborhood of his
tent, and the howdah placed upon it
resting upon a saddle composed of two
cushions of strong soaking about six
feet by two, which rested in turn upon
a large cloth covering the whole of the
elephants back. The howdahs fol-
shooting are lightly built of wood and
canework, and contain two seats, and |
racks to hold six guns or rifles, three Oh
each side. All this is dashed on by
ropes passing under the elephants
neck, belly and tail. The weight which
an elephant is able to carry upon its
back exceeds ton; for short distances
they have been known to carry as much
as 5000 pounds, but for long marches
half ton is considered the limit. Many
of the maharaja's elephants had fine
tusks, but most tusks are cut at regular
intervals to prevent them from injur.
ing one another. One or two of the
elephants, however, had point
ed tusks.-H. W. Seton Karr, in Cen.

of the tunnel viii amount to e7,O00,-

in declaring that the project of build

THE NEGRO ARTISAN
He Is Rapidly Meeting the Call for
Skilled Labor in the South

Negroes in the South are rapidly fill
ing the trades. AS carpenters, brick
layers, plasterers, blacksmiths and
wheelwrights they are growing more
and more numerous, and making it diff
cult for white men to prosper in these
fields of labor. "A glance at the white
schools of the South" says the Atlanta
Constitution, will show that the negro
schools are teaching their pupils more
Of the practical needs of life, and fitting
them to earn livelihood better than
the white schools are. For every white
chronological school the negroes have
half dozen with neurological and in
dustrial features Every year young
men are being turned out of the negro
schools in the South, who have been
taught carpentry, shoemaking, printing,
the general use of tools and scientific
farming, in addition to the usual aca-
demic courses and young women who
are taught cooking, washing, sewing,
dressmaking, nursing and housekeep
ing. When a young negro man or
woman leaves any one of more than a
dozen schools in the South she is equip
ped for earning livelihood and for ad
yancing the standard of the race. Our
people need arousing to the Importance
of chronological and industrial educa-
tion. We want educated hands as we'll

parties were actually in front of the

the Archbishop of Mexico forbid the
ceremony on the grounds that the e'young
woman was not of sound mind. The
accusation was made by an elder brother
who opposed the marriage. The civil
