Protestant-The bridegroom
Physician and Philanthropist.

Philadelphia. July 16--Dr. Charles Z.
Cadwallader, head Of one Of the oldest
and most exclusive families in Pennsyl-
vania, was married to Bridget Mary
Ryan, his housemaid.
The wedding, which was private, oc-
Cured at the old st. Paul's Protestant
Episcopal church. OF which Dr. Cad
wallader has been for many years
warden.
Neither the wedding nor even Dr.
Cadwallader's intention to marry has
been known to his family or Friends
and the announcement will cause the
biggest sensation in Philadelphia So
ciety in years.
DR.. Cadwallader traces his lineage
back to royal blood The founder Of
the family in America helped William
Penn to plan Philadelphia.
Wealth, refinement and ultra exclu-
riveness have always characterized the
Cadwalladers.
DR.. Cadwallader is 81 years old and
has always lived as a bachelor in the
old family mansion. which is rich in
ancestral portraits, old plate and jewels
and many, priceless relics Of the past.
He is philanthropist, practices as a
physician among the poor without pay

what eccentric.

Bridget Ryan came from Tipperary
five years ago and for two years has
been housemaid in DR.. Cadwallader's
employ. She is p years of age. tall,
slender, good looking and modest and
intelligent. When the doctor proposed
marriage she consented if her parents
in Ireland did not object They. being
devout Roman Catholics, objected to the
match Notwithstanding the doctors

Father Keely Of Tipqerary church,
ireland. strenuously opposed the young
woman's union with a Protestant, but
finally, after months of correspondence.
yielded on condition that the issue Of
the marriage should be educated as Ro-
man Catholics. Both DIR. Cadwallader
and his intended bride objected to this
condition. and the young woman. who
was q last week, cut the gOrdlan knot
by abjuring the Roman Catholic faith
and joining her husbands church.
Father Keely continued his fight. He
appealed to Father Mccormick Of ST.
Mary's Roman Catholic church. this
city. of which Mrs Cadwallader was a
member, and also protested to Arch
bishop Ryan, who declined to interfere.

Left ona Desert Island.

Wise scientists went forth from San
Frausisco on March 3, on the schooner
Wahlberg, to gather specimens OF sea

ichthyologists and men like thai.
They put into San Diego on July
27,with five tons of deep-sea treasures

they rescued from the desert island of
Natividad-four wild, wretched crea-
lures who passed eight horrible months
on the island.
The four men are Sergeant Sanford

Jack Dampier, and William Andrews,
who were rescued when on the verge
of death on Natividad Island. Fan

months furloagh and went down the

others on a guano-poaching expedition
in the Junk Hongkong.
That was over eight months ago.
At Cedros Island the rest of the crew
took the Hongkong and left the four
men on Natividad Island, with quite n
lot of water and provisions and pro-
missing TO return for them after their
cruise to Turtle bay.
There was no fresh water on the

The SIeen of plnntn.

Like animals all plants require In.
tervals of repose, during which the vi.
tai functions are slowed down, and the
organic structures undergo repair.
Some plants repose during the rainy
season, others during periods OF
drought, but while some plants sleep
during the cold or the comparatively
cold season of the year, others again
take their rest when the average tenn
peraturo is high. 1t occurred to q
Norwegian observer to investigate the
sleep of plants, more particularly with
the object of shortening the period Of
repose, and this he claims to have at
tanned by subjecting the bulbs or buds
to the action of cloroform yapor. He
asserts, indeed, that plants thus treat
ed subsequently develop more rapidly
than those whose repose has not been
intensified by the narcotic action OF
this drug, and the observation is not
without considerable interest.
If his observations are trustworthy,
il follows that sleep in plants is not
strictly comparable to TINT of animal
life, for we do not suppose that the
period allotted to sleep by animals
could adyantageously be shortened by
the administration Of an ana sthetic.
Sleep, on the other hand, is n relative
rather than an absolute condition. It's
value as restorative depends in
very marked degree on its intensity,
and certain iuli yi luals lpriye more
benefit and recuperate their jailed en-
ergies more eiieetually in five or six
hours than others 90 after twice as
long. This rccurerN;iye energy is as
serted to be an indication OF high
standard of vitality, and common OBJ
servation certainly lends color to the
view that diminished recuperative
power is indie ltive of, physiological
deterioration : Lnndop' Moaiea al Press.

The Freezing Process.

In mining for gold in Siberia the
ground is kept clear OF snow, so as to
permit the cold to penetrate as deep
ly as possible, after which the surface
is thawed by fires until a shallow
layer of earth can be removed. The
freezing is then allowed to proceed,
and the thawing operations repeated,
and this is continued as long as the
cold weather lasts, says writer in
the Engineering Magazine. In this
way through the long Siberian winters
open excavations are made 20 the gold
bearing rocks, the depths obtained
being from twenty-five to seventy.hve
feet, according to the duration of the
cold season.
Artificial cold for purposes OF exca.
walton was first used by Poetsch in
1888; by his well known process of
cold brine through a series of buried
pipes the most difficult quicksand may
be made hard enough to be excavated
like rock. In the article under con-
sideration are given general illustra-
tons and details of the apparatus used
in sinking the shafts at the Courrieres
mines, together with formulas enab-
ling the safe thickness of frozen wall
TO be computed for round or square
shafts of any given dimensions.
Among the important applications
Of the freezing process are noted the
sinking of the shafts for the cylinders
of the hydraulic elevator for the canal
lift at Les Fontinettes, and the con-
struction Of tunnel at Stockholm.
The latter work was executed en-
tirely by the Introduction of cold air
into the working chamber at the head
of the tunnel, the cold preventing in
filtration of water until the beton lin
ing was built, and the work of excayat-
ing and mining being carried on at
temperatures hanging between zero
and % degrees Fahrenheit.

The Sewing Machine.

How many women who, day after

to think what this invention means,
not only to them, but to the whole
world? And do they know tina. 90
per cent of all the machines made in
the world are the product of this great
country of ours?
Sewing machines have revolution
lied many branches of business; espe-
cially is this the case in all kinds of
leather work, from the heaviest harness
to the lightest gloves.
A really first-class machine ready
for market costs about $40. From
this figure the price drops to about
Sli, with possibly sl2, for the most in
ferior grades of what are considered
tolerahle machines. Hundreds of
thousands of persons make their en-
tire living by means of the sewing ma
chine, and probably millions are gain
ers by its use. During a period of
over 30 years the value of the exports
of sewing machines was something
like 1000, 600. In 1896 they were
considerably over 81, 900. 600. Three
