The way to build a city is tc
seek and encourage every enter.
plize coming in the way Of q
growing town, and after getting
them them then encourage and
foster them in every way posi-
bic. Such courses will lead in
vestors to hunt such places, and
the encouragement and fostering
allows them to enlarge and thus
add to the city's greatness. This
spirit was shown at Seattle, Wash
ington, short time since, and IS
tod by the Youths Companion in
in this way:
The Seattle spirit is a thing to
admire and initiate. 1t was mani
tested when the Secretary of the
Navy told a seattle firm that their
bid must be reduced two hundred
thousand dollars if they wanted
contract for one Of the new
battle ships. That was final, and
in many places the people would
have said, '.too bad, we've lost it,"
and gone abont their humdrum
business. Not so with Seattle.
the strong men Of the city con-
ferred; the builders offered to
scale down their bid if their fel-
low citizens would divide the loss
and the Seattle business men
promptly subscribed the hundred
thousand dollars-and four thou
sand over. These things being
understood, we fancy nobody will
Seattle the contract
which will so richly benefit the
manufacturers, mechanics and
.radesmen. She demonstrates
her possession Of that public spirit ,
BY which a city grows great.

FATAL WOUND DID NOT KILL.
strange Case CT "A Man who Was
Given Up for Dead.
From the Baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore Sun.
There lately died in Arizona a man OF
extremely old age who has been the
cause of the greatest wonderment OF
not only the medical fraternity, but also
OF all who had ever seen him. as he
was a man who literally had had day
light let through him, and lived-yes,
lived longer than the life of most men,
after an accident that any surgeon I'm
the world would have pronounced i'm
mediately fatal.
The history of this case is most won
derful and interesting. Fifty-one years
ago, in 1850, DR.. Henry j. Bigelow OF
Boston, was called up hastily to see a
quarryman who had been killed, but
was still breathing" as the messenger
described the case. According TO ali
precedents in surgical science. he should
have been dead for AT least two hours,
for the character OF his wounds was
such as would usually produce instant
death.
Or. Bigelow found that the patient,
says the Boston Herald, a young quar-
ryman about 20 years OF age. had been
tamping the powder In a hole prepard-
tory 20 "A blast. when premature Xxx
plosion had taken place, eicctinE the
crowbar used for the tamping to a
great hight On It's descent Il struck

First. That so far as may be prac-
.tcable all port charges upon ships be

consideration being given to equitable
adjustment of such dues upon ships in

ton of tonnage dues.
Third That each of the republics

ties upon which import duties are
levied, to be used by all the American
republics for the levying of customs
imports which are or may hereafter
be established and are also to be used
in shipping manifests, consular in
voices, etc. but not to affect in any
manner the right of each nation to
levy the import duties they may now
have in force or which they may here
after establish. For the purpose of
making recommendations to their re-
spective republics there shall be con-
stituted a commission, to be known

| through the brain and came out of the
head at the angle of the lower jaw.
When the doctor saw the man he was
lying in the bottom of a rough, spring
less wagon, such as is usually used for
hauling stones from the quarries. He
was stretched out on piece of can
vas under which had been placed some
old coats of his fellow workmen, and
in this manner he had been transported
over a rough quarry road nearly
twelve miles.
On arriving at the mans house 1t
was discovered that apparently he

In DR.. Bigelow to decide whether the
man was dead or alive. Upon exanDi-
nation the doctor found that he was
still alive, but the brain tissue was Is
suing from the hole In the skull where
the crowbar had passed through the
head. This tool was lying near the
man. II was 1h inches In diameter
and weighed 1874 pounds.
Under the circumstances the doctor
decided that the mans wounds were
fatal and that recovery was an impoa-
sibility. So the man was taken into the
house and laid ost. after receiving a
hasty bath, by the sympathetic neigh
bors OF the family.
Again, the next morning the doctor
was requested to come and see tho
man. as he was still breathing He ala
so, and at the request OF the family
made a superficial dressing or the
wounds, expecting that at most. the
mans life would be prolonged but a
few hours.
on the following day, as he found
life still present, he prescribed a IL
quid food which course was continued
for about two weeks. After IS DAYS
OF semi-comatose condition the man
finally regained consciousness. He
rapidly recovered strength, and, with
the exception OF losing the sight OF his
left eye, seemd none the worse for his
terrible accident. Finally he driftci

HIGH COURT DECISIONS.
Evansville Street-RaiIrond Company
Escapes Paving Bills.

The Supreme Court yesterday rendered
a decision the effect OF which was to ex-
empt the Evansville Street-railway Com
pany from paying for paving between its
tracks. The court rendered this decision
without constituting the street-car COM
pany's contract with the city. A property
owner brough: suit for a mandamus to
compel the Board of Public Works OF
Evansville to assess a proportionate part
Of the cost OF paving Washington avenue
against the owners of the street-car COM
pany ard the lower court granted the
mandan,us. At the time the assessment roll
for the Improvement was made up the city
attorney advised the Board of Works that
the Street-car companys contract with the
city did not require IL TO pave between its
tracks. The first formal declaration to the
contrary made by a citizen was in the
mandamus proceeding which the Supreme
Court held TO be too late, saying that the
objection should have been made when the
assessments were confirmed.
Frank +. Williams, a prisoner in the JEFF
fersonville Reformatory, yesterday lost his
habeas corpus suit against Superintendent

from the Reformatory on an error COM

clared that he ought TO have taken APP
peal from the original judgment Of convic-
ton instead of bringing a habeas corpus
suit
The Appellate Court decided yesterday In
the case of Loring Williams against the
Board of Commissioners OF Henry county
that counties must pay for postage stamps
necessarily used by county officers in con-
Quoting the business of their offices.
