The Undoing of MIR. Athena.


Carl Athena, a hypnotist in Omaha
Neb., has discovered a strenuous Ire

accurate. he prefers the gloom of a
small pocket in the earth to being re
Joined by his dear ones at his reawak-
ening. The trouble with Athena seems
to have been caused by more dear
ones" than the law allows. An alleged
deserted wife followed him to Omaha,
where he was to have been buried alive
for a week. Three days passed, but ms
was not the sleep of the just, for me
police of Kansas City had him dug up
prematurely to meet the hrst OF MS
dear ones. Athena. however, preferred
other things to this unexpected reun-
ion, and even vigorous pricking WIN
pins was a heavenly joy compared with
his stern alternative. So Athena went
to slear again. While in tins state, 1t
seems. Dear One No. del hut Dear
One No. : continued her silent, ! IT de-
termined, vigil at his cottinsiie, and
she was on hand to grab him by an ear
when the glow of life returned to his
cheeks according to the terms or ms
business managers contract.
II was a rude awakening. Great as
must be the bliss of the new life, 1t
surely is married when one is tugged
into il by the ear. The sight of Dear
one No. / and her ungentle welcome
led Athena again to prefer his at-so-
much-per-week death sleep, and he
rolled over rigid i'm his coffin. This
time. however, the police are keeping
him boxed up until physicians bring
him to, assisted by the influence of an
empty stomach. What is yet in store
for Athena may be guessed at by those
whose coin he solicits by proxy at the
door, and the rest of the world. too,
for that matter. but 1t can be conf
IDENTIFY predicted that even admitting

hospital surgeon, the policeman, the
resolute deserted wife" and the writ
of habeas corpus are awake. while the
subject lies in gentle repose.

CANINE ROONEY's" JAG.
Whirls Around Until She Becomes
Dizzy, and Likes II.


Dizzy, and Likes IL.

Rooney is giving the keepers at the
monkey house in Central Park a de-

is the name of the little brown and
black African monkey that animates
the cage just once removed from Pat
sy," the pigtailed monkey, who has re-
covered from his cold, by the way and
has begun to take an interest in things
once more.
Annie began to attract the attention
OF the keepers some weeks ago, after
she had made the discovery that rum
ming around in circle made her dizzy,
which sensation seemed to at once
mystify, astonish, and delight her
The cause of her discovery was a fly
That was buzzing lazily around the
cage. Annie, with nothing better to
do. began to chase the ny, with the
seeming purpose of catching II. The
chase led to a corner OF the cage,
where the fly. just out of reach, cir
have.
Annie began circling around after IL,
and as the fly buzzed round and round
i narrowed its circle. until Annie, in
her attempts to follow II. was spin
ming around like a top. BY the time
Annie was going around so fast that
she looked like a little brown whirl-
pool the fly few quietly out OF the
cage and away TO tease some other idle
monkey, Annie had begun to circle
SO fast that she did not notice the de-
parture Of Mr.. Fly. and finally, when
she began TO wobble because she was

alarmed John for a few seconds, as
Earl lay breathless and motionless.
John, with that qufckness of thought

John Cockrell put one end of rubber

and soon pumped him full. Cockrell
held Earl's lips close together. so the

MOVEMENT OF FREIGHT BY
STEAMBOATS, LIGHTER.

! The Falling ON Due to the Back
wnrdness of Merchants I'm Buying
in Face of UnfavorabIe Fall Trade
Notwithstanding Isle of Kent
From Savannah in Trouble at
Boston-Mattcrs of Interest to
Shippers and Mariners.
The reported slack trade in the in
terror is telling in the movement of
freight by the river steamers, which
shows marked falling off during the
past two weeks, according to reports
from several sources. When the out
look for business is gloomy merchants
do not buy, and this tells at once in
the freight movement from the East.
Capt. W. T. Gibson, general man
ager of the Southern Transportation
Company, stated yesterday that the
business between Savannah and Angus
ia, and particularly the through bus
mess from the North, showed some
falling off. This he attributes directly
to the trade conditions in the interior,
where the merchants have been back
ward about replenishing their stocks
in view of the rather unfavorable out
look for active fall trade 1t is true
that these boats will in a short time
be moving fertilizer, but this will not
compensate for the loss in the usual
amount of through freight at this sea-
son.
The steamboat Ethel, which went
aground above the city some time ago,
and which was later raised and brought
to the city, is at the companys
wharves foot of Abercorn street, where
she will be repaired.
The British steamship Isle of Kent,
which loaded here for Bremen, has put
into Boston damaged. She was load
ed by w. w. Wilson. Among other
cargo the Isle of Kent has 1850 bales of
upland cotton. The dispatch, dated
Boston, Dec. II, says The British
steamship Isle of Kent, of Newcastle,
Eng, from Savannah for Bremen, put
in here to-day with her bows crushed
in and her stem battered. She brought
the entire crew of the Spanish steamer
Amesti, bound from Bilbao Spain for
Philadelphia, the latter vessel having
sunk in half an hour after collision
with the Isle of Kent on Saturday last,
when about 1928 miles east of Cape Cod.
Philadelphia, Dec. 17.-Capt. Tunnel
of the schooner Francis G. Tunnel
from Brunswick, Ga, for this port,
reports that on the night of Dec. 10,
when off Cape Lookout, q sailor named
Leonard F. Grant. was washed over

blowing a hurricane.
Boston, Dec. 1.-THE collision oc-
CURED early in the morning. Each of
the lool5outs sighted the other vessel,
but too late to prevent the accident
The Isle of Kent cut half way through
the Amesti so that she began to fill
Immediately and sank within twenty
five minutes. Except the chief officer
and the deck watch, the crew of the
Amesti had time to save nothing. They
jumped into boats and the Kent pres
emily picked them up.
The Isle of Kent was loaded with
cotton from Savannah to Bremen. The
Amesti sailed from Bilboa, Nov. o.
with a cargo of iron ore for Philadel-
phia.

POLICEMAN INSULTED LADY.
When Her Husband Ran Up He Was
Hit With n Billy.

Patrolman C. w. Dyer created con-
siderable disorder near the Court
House yesterday afternoon while off
duty, and will probably be prosecuted
in the state courts. He was placed I'M
der arrest by officers, whose attention
was attracted by the trouble.
Dyer appeared to have been drink
ing and started the disturbance on
Drayton street, near State, by insult
ing the wife of D. Epstein, tailor.
prominent Bay street cotton merchant
who witnessed the act stated that Dyer
has acted in a most outrageous and
unwarranted manner. Mrs. Epstein
stated that she was on the street when
Dyer approached and addressed
her in a most obscene manner.
Mrs. Epstein screamed and her hus-
band ran out. He is a small man and
when he made an effort to find out
what had happened to his wife he
was struck over the head with a billy
by Dyer. The tailor claims that the
patrolman had a revolver, but the
weapon was not seen by the merchant.
He saw Dyer throw his hand to his
hip pocket, and, with an oath, say that
he would shoot the tailor. The officer
was sent to the police station house
and placed in a cell. He was suspend
ed by Supt. Reilly and will be given
a hearing before Mayor Myers for his
conduct. Mr.. Epstein stated his inten-
ton of presenting the officer to the
grand jury and prosecuting him to the
full extent of the law. The trouble
occasioned a great deal of excitement
