BURIAL ALIVE.
Movement OF an EyiId Saves Woman
from Terrible Fate.

East st. Louis, H., Jan. H.-Mrs.
Christina Hirth emerged from q
trance this morning 10 find herself un-
der process Of being embalmed and pre-
pared for the grave. The discovery Of
life was the result Of the mereet accl-
dent and astounded the undertaken. A
movement OF an eyelid saved the wo-
man from death at the hands Of the
undertaken or from burial alive.
This morning, while her husband
watched at her bedside at the hospital,
che gave a deep sigh and then seemed
TO breathe no more. When the county
physician arrived he felt her pulse and
made other tests and then pronounced
her dead. The county undertaken was
called, and shortly afterward proceeded
TO ombalm the body in the deadroom.
Mrs. Hirth was placed on the cooling
board and the work OF preparing her
for burial began. The body was
cleansed and partially bleached. on
each eye O weight was placed 10 hold
down the lids. over the face a white
cloth saturated with bleaching fluid
was sDrad. The undertaken heard
something fall. When ready 10 remove
the bleaching cloth he noticed that one
OF the weights had fallen OF. In re-
placing Il he thought he detected q
slight movement Of the eyelash. There
was no beat OF pulse or sign Of breath,
however, so he set about preparing his
Instruments for the injection OF the
poisonous fluids used IN embalming.
While thus engaged he heard another
noise. Again the weight had fallen.
Again he noticed faint CULVER Of the
eyelid. Then he applied the most pow
crful test known to undertakes and
was rewarded with a faint sign Of life.
He summoned assistance and che body
was removed 90 a bed In the hospital.
The doctor was called and restoratives
applied.
Gradually the woman came out OF
her coma and was able 10 move her
body. she was unable 10 discuss her
experience but made signs 10 indicate
that she was conscious OF all that had
taken place. II Is expected that she
will regain some Of her strength and
live for a while. al least

away Reach and Jamaica Bay. Great
inroads have been made into the beach
az Aryerne and Edgemere. A wide
channel has been cut into the beach,
opening up the old inlets at Edgemere.
At this place the water has almost
reached the railroad tracks. and II is
feared the big summer hotel may be
damaged. The heavy bulkhead which
was built a year ago 10 protect the
property has crumbled to pieces under
the force OF the breakers.
At Arverne the seas are encroachlng
upon the board walk and at Sea Side
the foundations Of big dancing pa

Bryan's Speech Of Acceptance.

Did you read Bryan's speech of ac-
ceptance? 1t was wasted time IL you
We're in search Of political wisdom. but
as sample of demagogic buffoonry il
was we'll worth looking over. 1t was
IL, 900 word fight to q finish with a man
of straw as an opponent. The Indian
apolis atmosphere was rent with meg
aphonic denunciations of an imaginary
imperialism" the empire" was over
thrown and the republic saved: the
army was disbanded: the Filipinos,
eulogized as noble and patriotic mar
tyrs, were left to shift for themselves;
the Monroe doctrine, without the aid of
an army, was extended over the Phil
ippines; and the memory of Washing
ton and Jefferson was insulted by con-
traction Interpretations.
The imperialistic bogy was waved
aloft until the orator and audience
We're too exhausted to permit any dis
cussion of free silver or the numerous
other follies and fallacies embodied in
the Chicago and Kansas City plat
forms upon which Bryan asks the
suffrage of the people. He did darkly
ting the dollar before the man, which
is most serious charge very lucidly
explained. He also found time to re-
mark that the Republican party is an
organization of plutOcrats engaged in
crushing the poor classes all of whom
are Democrats. AS he was in the pres
ence of Chairman Jones and represent
tatives of Tammany he considerably
refrained from roasting the trusts.
Nor did he explain why the Tagalog is
more capable or deserving of self
government than the negro in the
South. There was a perceptible limp
in his eloquence when he touched upon
his own support of the treaty with
issue" in their campaign. His horror
of the importation of Filipinos to COM
pete with American labor is a sample
of the demagogic tricks and mounte-
bank bluffs resorted to. Bryan's
speech of acceptance was thoroughly
Bryanistic. and only makes it more
apparent how utterly unsafe a man he
is to be trusted with any high office in
our government.

The "HcrseIess" CARRIAGE,

Why do the manufa cturers of the
automobile persist in giving that
''horseless' look to the new creation
that is growing SO rapidly in public
favor? The development of the auto
mobile has been rapid. but the invent
ors have not brought out design that
furnishes no suggestion of the horse or
his absence. To be sure, the shafts
and whiffletree have been discarded.
but everything else is there that sug-
gests the equine means of lomotion.
This impression Of the ''horselessness"
of the new vehicle must have i'm
pressed us all, and the Electrical Re-
view makes an earnest editorial plea
for an automobile that shall look as
though it had always been self pro
polling vehicle, had never been hitched
to a horse, had never seen a horse and
did not know that such a thing as a
horse existed. The Review AYERS that
the Chinese mental attitude" toward
out in our construction of automobiles.
1t says our adherence to the old lines
of the horse drawn vehicle would be
pathetic were it not so infinitely ridicu
lous." IF anybody can assign any
reason whatever why an automobile
should look like a horse vehicle with
out horse now is the time for him to
speak" says the Review.
But isn't it barely possible that the
study of the public taste in this mat
ter and are endeavoring to conform it?
The public is not ready to give up the
horse. 1t does not want to forget the
faithful animal that has carried the
burdens of our civilization. 1t is,
therefore. doubtless a fact that the
automobile will make greater progress
in ingratiating itself in public favor if
it retains some visible reminders of the
horse. 1t is highly probable that a
very radical departure from the lines
of the horse drawn vehicle would real
ly retard the development of the auto
mobile. For this reason, no doubt, the
''dashboard' style of horseless carriage
will prevail for many years to come.
In the popular mind an automobile that
furnished no suggestions of the horse
would not be a vehicle The TWEEN
teth century automobile. in its ulti-
mate development. however, will con-
tain no more reminders of a horse than
a trolley car or locomotive.
