Raced with a LncnInnfiye.

Tn race for life over the Delaware
and Hudson bridge across the river at
Wllkesbarre, Penn, Edward Wilson
won and saved his fvc-year-old son.
They were walking across the bridge
between train times when an engine
thundered on the structure. They
were I'm the middle Of span at the
time, and the father. snatching up the
little boy, ran as fast as his legs could
carry him, over the eight-inch wide
ties. He took three at every bound,
and by the greatest care held his foot
Ing. Had he slipped he would have
been caught between the ties and
killed. He managed TO reach n pier
and spring on 1t Just as the engine
swept by.
Wilson says that the engine never
diminished It's speed, rang a bell, blew
n whistle nor gave any indication that
the engineer saw him. He was COM
plctely unnerycd by his experience.

A Darwlnlan Theory.


The usual idea that a drowning man
is stretching out his hands for aid or
catching at straws" is not altogether
satisfactory. a possible explanation
has lately been suggested, and this
supposes that the drowning man, los
ing all his acquired habits and even
some Of those inherited from more re-
cent parents, in his terror goes back
to the instructive movements of his
arboreal ancestors, and the movements
of a drowning man are those OF a
frightened ape, seeking safety by
clinging to the nearest tree.
The movement is certainly instinc
tive. for II can only be eliminated by
considerable training and voluntary
efforts, and yet it is fatal TO the indi-
vidual. for the specific gravity of no
human body is so nearly that of water
that the removal of the arms from the
supporting fluid at once sinks the face
beneath the surface. In cases of So
called cramps" the victim, often a
highly-trained swimmer. generally
throws up the hands, but these cases
are probably due 10 heart failure. and
a similar movement takes place on
land when the subject receives a fatal
heart wound; and IL is even a COM
mon expression OF shock or astonish-
ment. The ordinary movements of
walking or running would keep n
mans face above water. but these
curious climbing movements of both
hands and feet made floating impossi-

he said, among other things:
''The great temptation which I believe

We find man giving libraries to a city
which should be ashamed to accept
them, when it knows his name must be

The same man gives universities to a
country which never asked for anything

who have amassed great fortunes at

APPROACHING Recovery
MRS M'KINLEY's CONDITION CON-
TINUES TO IMPROVE AND

If Present Rate of Progress Toward
Recovery Maintains, Presidents
Wife Will Soon BE Taken
to Canton

WASHINGTON, June 16-The improve
ment in Mrs. McKinley'a health con-
tinues and Dr. Rixey said tonight, on
leaving the White house, that he was
satisfied with her condition. She sat UP
in her rolling chair during the day and
chatted and laughed with the president
and others at her bedside. AS night came
on Mrs. Mckinley again took to her bed,
after passing a fairly comfortable day
During the past three days the weather
has been cloudy and rainy and today
was particularly gloomy, This had a
somewhat depressing effect on the pa
tient, but with the return of good wealth
er more satisfactory results are expected.
Today was a very quiet one at the White
house. The president spent most of the
time with his sick wife. Capt. and Mrs
McWilliams, of Chicago, accompanied by
their son, called during the evening, and
others left their cards.
Word comes from Canton, Ohio, that
the Improvements on the president S
home there are about completed and that
everything will be in readiness for oc-
cupancy by the LIST of July. If Mrs. Nc
Kinley's condition permits her removal
by that time she will be taken to her
Ohio home, where it is believed the
chances for permanent improvement W Il
be greater than in Washington. Hopa
is expressed that she may be able to
travel by July 1 If the present rate Of
progress toward recovery is maintained.

IS ELIJAH REINCARNATED

CHICAGO, June 1s.-John Alexander
DoWie announced at his meeting in Zion
tabernacle today that certain physicians
Of this city had formed a plot to kidnap
him, lock him in a detention hospital and
beat him in the head and back until no
should lose all his reasoning powers and
become really insane. He said that the
KIDNAPPING might take place tonight, and
after his service he called a special pri-
vate meeting OF the male members Of
Zion to take steps to help the Zion guard
in protecting him. He also made threats
against the physicians that he would do
to them as he thought they were trying
to do to him until they should let him
alone and stop calling him a paranOiac.
With all this DOwie repeated continually
his pretensions to be Elijah Teincarnated,
making way for the Messiah, and he in,
cidentany laid claim to immortality until
such time as his work was accomplished,
"I have. special Information" shouted
the general oVerseer to his followers,
THAT law has just been juggled with
special reference to me. These doctors
have fixed 1t so that an insanity COM
plaint does not have to come from b
relative now but may come from ahy
man who claims to act in the public good.
