NO RESISTING SLEEP.
Nature Will Assert Herself in Spite
of Eycrything-Sonc Not
able Instances.

One of the most remarkable facts to
be found in the history of sleep con-
sists in the utter inability to resist
its onset in cases of extreme fatigue
Several remarkable instances are given
in which persons have continued to
walk onward while sleep has overcome
them, the automatic centers of the
brain evidently controlling and stimu.
lating the muscles when consciousness
itself had been completely abrogated
1t is reported that at the battle of the
Nile, amidst the roar of cannon and
the fall of wreckage, some of the over.
fatigued boys serving the guns with
powder fell asleep on the deck. DR.
Carpenter gives another instance of al.
lied kind. In the course of the Burmese
war the captain of frigate actively
engaged in combat fell asleep from
sheer exhaustion and slept soundly fol
two hours within yard of one of the
biggest guns, which was being active
ly worked during his slumbers. 1t is
n matter of common medical knowledge
that extreme exhaustion in the face oi
the severest pain will induce sleep
Here the imperative demand of the
body-a demand implanted, as we have
seen, in the constitution of the frame!
asserts it's influence, and even pain
the ordinary conaueror of repose, ha!
its turn to succumb.
One of the most extraordinary cases
in which the oyerruling power of sleeI
was ever eXemplifed was that of Dam
lens, condemned for treason in Paris
in 1857. He was barbarously tortured
but remarked that the deprivation ot
sleep had been the greatest torture o.
all. 1t was reported that he slep
soundly even in the short intervals
which elapsed between his periods o
torture. Among the Chinese form
of punishment for crimes consists il
keeping the prisoner continually awake
or in arousing him necessarily afte'
short intervals of repose. After tn
eighth day of such sleeplessness on
criminal besought his captors to pu
him to death by any means they coul'
choose or invent, so great was his pail
and torment due to the absence of ma
ture's soft nurse" Persons engaged
in mechanical labor, such as attending
amachine in factory, have often fallel
asleep despite the plain record of pain
and penalties attending such derelic
tion of duty, to say nothing of the sens
of personal danger which was plainl
kept before their eyes.-Harper's Ba
Zar.

The nomination of John r. Mclean
ON a platform denouncing bossism is a
bit OF hypocrisy that should bring a
blush TO the cheek Of brazen image.
For years Mclean has been boss in
Ohio politics, and that, too, in the most
offensive and unscrupulous manner.
He has, for almost twenty years, been
paving the way for his own ambitions.
lin SO doing, he has remUrselessly over
thrown honored leaders In his own

The time-honored principles" OF
Democracy have been smashed into
smithereens by the nomination of John
r. Mclean for Governor of Ohio.
There is absolutely nothing about the
Democratic nominee to recommend him
TO the people. He represents no inter-
ferests and has no claims upon the peo-
pie for their votes. His personal inter-
ests and desires are the only motives OF
his career.

The Toledo Courier, which generally
speaks very plainly and truly, says:
The gentlemen of Democratic proclivi-
ties who have been wont to discourse
upon the evils of the "boss'' in poll

are now under the baleful gaze of the
King bee of all the bosses that ever
eame down the Buckeye pike.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK November 24.--Today' S
market was active and in some respects de-
cidedly strong in character. The buying
early In the day was mixed, the short In
terest covering freely over the double hoii-
day. Later en- the demand for the spe-
cialties was aggressive, and some very sub
stantial advances were recorded. The buy
ing of Baltimore and Ohio was extremely
liberal in volume the preferred stock re-
spending easily for an advance of more
than per cent.
One order for 1000 shares Of this stock
was largely instrumental in forcing the
later advance in price. For several days
there have been accommodating orders In
this stock and the continued demand has
developed the fact that there is little pres
sure of long stock.
Around the days high level the trading
was extremely active and unusually con-
fident.
The preferred stock is likely to get it's
full per cent dividend at an early date,
but since there are several preferred stocks
certain to do the same there would seem
to be little excuse for centering all the
business upon one at an advance of per
cent over its neighbOrs. The demand at
times was most urgent, and the balance Of
the list suffered from neglect. Union Pa
cific shares were active, the common stock
selling up under a good demand, based on
earnings and the belief in the ultimate
carrying out of the transcontinental prof.
ect.
The demand for all the low-priced rail-
road stocks good, and there can be
little doubt that any increase in the COM
mission house activity will center around
this group.
Semi-Official reports of earnings on the
steel stocks are most gratifying, and
movement in them is among the winter $
larger probabilities. All of the common
stocks in this class of properties were well
taken during the day.
Consolidated Gas declared a quarterly
dividend of l per cent and announced its
determination not to advance rates al this
time. The double announcement was fol-
lowed by a 3 per cent decline in the price
of the stock.
Leather common sold down easily under
realizing sales and a lack of manipulatve
support. Weakness in the two properties
last named failed to influence the general
market however. All of the usual esti-
mates on the bank statement predicted a
favorable report. The banks have gained
a few hundred. thousand dollars on their
interior business. This fact. coupled with
the governments bond purchases. should
make good report especially in the re-
serve Item. The bank statement and any
success of the British in the Transvaal
should make next weeks market one of
unusual interest.

THE BLVEFIELDS INCIDENT.
Notes With View to
Settlement.

The State Department and the Mica
raguan government are exchanging notes
with view to bringing to a close the Blue
fields incident, growing out of the double
taxation of American merchants at Blue
fields. The amount in question, about 5000,
was deposited with the British consul
there, to await a final adjustment But a
misunderstanding has arisen between the
governments as to how the adjustment was
TO be made. Nicaragua CONSTITUTES the agree
nient to mean that the local courts shall
pass upon the subject.
But the United States minister to Mica
ia qua. Mr.. Merry, recently addressed a
communica lion to the minister of foreign
affairs taking another view of the arrange
nlcnt.
Meanwhile the matter remains open, and
the authorities here are turning their at
tention to it with a view 10 securing an
amcable termination Of the controversy,
and disposition of the funds in the hands
Of the British consul
The matter has been somewhat affected
by the recent political developments at
Bluefelds, where the government resigned
and retired to the interior because of Diff
ferences with the foreign colony. Presi-
dent Zelaya promptly led the place by a
military officer whose tact is relied upon
TO restore good feeling.
