Outvyftted the Lunatic.

While residing at Rome paid a visit
to the lunatic asylum there, and among
the more. remarkable patients one was
pointed out to me who had been saved
with much difficulty from intiicting
death upon himself by voluntary STIR
walton in bed, under the impression t lat
he was defunct, declaring that cad
people never eat, 1t was soon obvious
to all that the issue must be fatal, when
the humane doctor bethougbt Of the
following stratagem: Half dozen of
the attendants, dressed in white shrouds
and their faces and hands covered with
chalk, were marched in single file with
dead silence into a room adjoining that
of the patient where he observed them
through door purposely left open sit
down 90 a hearty meal.
"HelIo" said the would be corpse to
an attendant. "Who be they?"
"Dead men, was the reply.
"What,' rejoined the defunct. "do
dead men eatI'
"To be- sure they do, as you see :"
answered the attendant.
"If that's the case" exclaimed the
dead man, "1'll join them, for Pm

If that charming woman, the late

suredly not because she did not have
many an admirer. A Washington lady
has in her possession a little old bit of
yellow paper upon which is penciled a
boyish scrawl. 1t was preserved by Miss
Field from her little girl days. The
scrawl rnns thus:
''wont yue mete me down bye The

On the other side of the bit of paper

Wreck of the Cherokee.

Pasque Island, Mass, Sept. 21.-The
wreckers who have arrived at the scene
of the Stranding of the steamer Chero-
kee, which went ashore on the Grave
yard" NHushon island, while on her way
from Jacksonville to Boston, were I'M
able to do practically any work, owing
to a southeasterly gale, which sprung up
suddenly. early in the morning. The tugs
Taurus and Mercury with wrecking
lightV were alongside the steamer early,
but n tue roughness of the water in
creased the wrecking master was obliged
to order the tugs into harbor for safety.
Although the gale has not injured the
Cherokee nor caused her to change posi-
ticn, it is feared that if the storm con-
unues any length of time it will be diff
cult to save her AS soon as the gale
subsidies the wreckers will resume work.
The cargo will first be lightered and an
attempt made to patch up the hole In
the forward part of the vessel. An
agent of the Clyde line, the owners of
the vessel, was expected here today, but
his journey may be delayed rs a result
of the storm.

Another Strike Mt Cramps.

Philadelphia, Sept. 21-Another strike
was inaugurated at Cramps ship build
ing yards when 100 ship joiners laid
down their tools. These men had pre-
scented demands to the firm asking that
nine hours constitute a days work and
the pay be 30 cents an hour instead of
a ten hour day at 2719 cents per hour.
The Cramps We're given until 10 o'clock
to reply and, no answer having been re-
cived ut that hour by the joiners, the
strike resulted. There are about ISL
joiners employed at Cramps, but the
movement affects only those who went
out. the others being foremen or en-
ployed ON machines. The machinists and
blacksmithS who on Sept. l struck for
nine hour work day are still out, and
the Pattern Makers association Of this
city has served notice on the Cramps
making Il similar demand. A reply from
the firm is expected tomorrow.

CHANGED HIS MIND
German Commercial Agent VIII Par
ticipnte In Trade Congress.

ticiDute In Trade Congress.
Philadelphia. Sept 21.-Herr Julius
Van der Iypen, a commercial councillor
at Cologne. Germany, who recently de-
clined to accept an invitation to attend the
international commercial congress, which
opens on Oct. 10 in connection with the
National Export exposition, has recon
sidered his decision. \ letter has been
received from him announcing his inten-
ton of participating in the congress.
Herr Iypen had been opposed to the
gathering on account of what he consid
cred American injustice to Germany in
commercial matters. He also advised the
German chambers of commerce and sim
liar organizations against sending dele
gates
Baron Thiemann of Berlin, imperial
secretary of the treasury and former en-
bassador to the United States, in a letter
to the officials of the exposition express
es himself as favorng the congress. He
says:
81 by no means share the opinion of a
part of German commercial circles that
participation in the congress would be
injurious to the interests Of the COM
count Of the short time which remains
before tn" opening of the congress- l do
not see the possibility of exercising any
influence IN the matter of the sending Of
delegates, especially as the various or
g;NiZa,ons are free to decide for them
selves"
