CARDIAC PHENOMENON.
A Mas Who Carries q Music Box Instead
Of q Heart.

A Mas Who Carries q Music Box Instead
Of q Heart.
Edward Lewis, OF 25S Division street,
Chicago, carries about with him aheart
that measures nine by eleven inches
and weighs nearly four pounds. But
be is not carrying about such an un-
comfortable, shaky load Just for test
Of endurance. It plays him pretty and
cheerful tunes while he walks. Lewis
discovered his cardiac harmony produc-
er through an attack Of dyspepsia, or
rather a Chicago physician did. This
was three years ago, after he had been
In a New York hospital for six weeks,
and had been given up by the medical
savants of the metropolis.
He came to Chicago and was treated
by DR.. A. M. Corwin, demonstration Of
physical diagnosis at Rush Medical col
lege. This physician, in exploring
about Lewis Intervals with an x-ray,
or at least rummaglng around In some
equally scientific way, ran upon the
great, big, aortic music box. He was
astounded, for he had never heard OF
so much heart in man or woman. Here
was q case for Chicago to be proud Of
The largest hearted man in the world
resides in Chicago.
When Lewis discovered his singing
heart he was in poor health. He took
no more medicine and soon picked up
Or. Corwin advised him to 60 about the
country and act as a specimen among
the medical fraternity. This hint was
acted upon, and since leaving Chicago
eigteen months ego, Lewis has been
east and west in this country and In
England, Germany, France and Canada
He has been examined by some OF the
most prominent professional men. and
all are dumbfounded at his marvellous
heart.
Putting ones head to the chest OF the
nan, there comes distinctly to the ear
a singing, musical sound. There are
Intermittent thumps that simply accent
the music and render 1t the more artis-
tic and weird. The singing noise is 30
loud that one can hear 1t even at the
right side of Lewis chest.-Trenton

An Anticipated Violin.

Mr.. Taylor Buttrell, OF Jackson, Ca,
has violin that is 1873 years old. 1t
has been in his possession some twenty
years, and is considered by Arst-class
musicians to be valuable and high
toned instrument. 1t was manufac-
tured in 1715, and is perhaps one
among the oldest of its kind in the
south. Mr.. Butrell prizes his violin
very highly, and as he is one Of those
"back date musicians himself, he
sometimes takes the bow in hand,
reels off some choice selections Of old
time melodies. -Exchange.

Apple Trees.

Apple trees are allowed to grow too
much wood and are not cut back SUM-
oiently in some orchards. One OF the
leading horticulturists states that q
large apple tree requires more room
than forest tree, and in some cases
it may be necessary TO cut away three,
fourths OF each tree so as to afford
plenty OF room for all and admit air

and the Philippines, all OF them being
transported over long distances by sea,
involving an infinitude of arduous de-
tails, all of them landing successfully,
and all of them accomplishing their pur-
pose. so that only four months after the
declaration OF war hostillties were
brought to a conclusion and negotiations
for peace begun. 1t was a feat OF which
even u nation organized on military
basis, with a great army always at hand,
might well have had reason to be proud
30
The original purpose OF the adminstra-
tion, as expressed In the Hull hill Tor the
reorganization of the army. was 10 pro-
vide for an increase of the regular army
to strength which would have furnished
a trained force sufficient for the necessi-
ties of active campaigning without en-
forced reliance upon the militia or Volun-
tecrs. The history of the failure of that
hill has been related by MIR. Hull. Under
a mistaken apprehension OF its purpose.
militia officers in many states protested
against It to their congressman, on the
ground that it would deprive them OF n
share of the glory of the war, and ac-
cordingly the house OF representatives ran
away from this wise and necessary bill
almost in a panic: and consequently an
insufficient increase of the regular army
was voted. That was a great mistake
but in spite of It. American valor, in
genuity and resource carried through the
war in four months to complete victory.
and with a relative loss small almost be.
Nond precedent. 1t was a magnthcent
achievement and the American people
have reason for boundless pride and un-
Ceaslng thanKfulness because of It.

CoSTLIEST MACHINE MADE.
Ithaca Dispatch in the sun.

Ithaca Dispatch in the Sun.
p. Y. Dodge. a well known patent at
torney of New York city and of Wash
ington, has presented to Cornell uniVer-
sity, through DR.. Thurston, Of Sibley col
lege. what is said to be the Costliest piece
of machinery ever constructed. 1t is the
original Paige typesetting machine, the
only one of its kind ever built, and was
constructed at AN expense OF nearly s.
of machinery in the world, it is at the
same time one of the most remarkable
and ingenious. 1t consists of over 1900
parts, and is in every detail beautifully
perfect in its working. 1t is not built on
the plan of the ordinary typesetting ma
chine, which moulds its own type, but
like a human being handles ordinary
type sets it, leads it, and distributes it
as though it were a person.
The invention was a failure in com
mercial sense, for even after the tirst ma =
chine was perfected 1t was Impossible to
build the machine so that ii could be
sold. The machine occupies floor space
lll2 by 3la feet, and has a maximum
height of 6la feet. The new gift to Cor
nell is all the more interesting inasmuch
as II was in the construction of this ma
fortune. 1t is not known yet when the
machine will reach Ithaca, but DR.. Thurs
ton expects it in short time. As soon
as it arrives it will be placed in the Sib-
ley museum.

Superintendent Howell's Report.

The annual report of Superintendent
Howell upon the condition of the city
schools, which appears elsewhere, mer-
its perusal in both substance and man
ner. Without dlation, it puts the situ-
alton in due perspective and touches
with special emphasis upon special
needs.
The references to what have been
done in culture of the sensibilities by
the use Of music, pictures and flowers
in the school room and in the enlisting
Of mothers interest are not the least
important features Of the report We
dare say that were Superintendent
Howell called upon to elaborate his
ideas in this direction valuable chap
ter could be contributed to public in
formation. 1t is in the ethical and aes-
thetic influences with which the schools
surround the pupils quite as much as
in the exact knowledge impaired or
the set forms of instruction observed
that they have political value as nur-
series of good citizenship and we note
with pleasure the start which has been
made along these lines in the schools
of Scranton.
OF kindred interest is the resume OF
progress achieved in the pupils saving
fund. With the history of its inception
our readers are familiar but it is graft
flying To know that eight of our schools
now have the savings system in oper-
alton with total deposit of $3.50 Here
is the germ OF a large development ir
the incubation of habits Of thrift anC
frugality-habits quite as valuable t
the community as is knowledge OF
the laws "f grammar or the intricacieS
of cube root.
Altogether the report produces an en-.
couraging impression and shows tha
the management of school affairs OF
their educational side is not going for
ward without a well-defined purpose il
view.

SCIENCE OF MODERN WAR.

From the Portland Oregonian.
Events of the past few months have
demonstrated fully the claim that science
is the servant of war. The engineering
skill that builds roads and bridges, makes

strings electric wires, found large means
for a display of its talents in the Gu
ban campaign. The quick adaptation OF
means TO end-an adaptation learned

and sompelled quick results, 1t is this
adaptation that has made war a scientific
game, grandly effective In the settlement
of national controversies and infinitely
less waste.-' ~S Life than in former years.
