IS NEAR The END.
Joseph Jefferson Critically III at Palm
Beach.

West Palm Beach, Fla, April IL
Joseph Jefferson lies critically ill at
his winter residence at Palm Beach.
His condition reported by the attend
ng physician, R. B. Potter, is little if
any improved.
He is surrounded by his family and
they are prepared to expect death at
any minute.
Three weeks ago Mr.. Jefferson
visited ex-President Cleveland at
Hobe sound, where he caught cold,
and on his return to Palm Beach was
forced to take his bed. He convalesc-
ed and was up after few days con-
finement, when Monday he was seiz-
ed with a relapse.
Dr. S. G. Worley was called from
ST. Augustine, but returned Thursday
when Mr. Jefferson showed some i'm.
provement.
Mr.. Jefferson was in fact born to
the stage. He comes of long anG
unbroken line of actors. In the yeaI
1749 Thomas Jefferson was a come
dian of rank at the old Drury Lane
theater of London, and subsequently
manager of a playhouse in Richmond
England. This Thomas Jefferson was
the son, if not the grandson, of an
actor, and it was a son of this Thorn,
as who established the line of Jeffer.
sons in this country. His name was
Joseph and he came to this country
at the age of 81, arriving one year be-
fore that mighty instrument of an
other Jefferson declared the separa-
ton of the colonies from the mother
country. Appearing first in public in
Boston and subsequently in New
York, this Joseph Jefferson finally set
tied in Philadelphia, where he won a
fame very similar to that enjoyed by
his grandson of our day. Like that
grandson he was a comedian

RothsehiId Declined Fortune.

Baron Rothschild, head of the
French branch of the family, recently
received curious legacy. This was
the fortune of an ancient beggar
named Abraham Fiddler, who died in a
garnet at Nice, and was found to pos
sess 1,250.000 francs. He bequeathed
it to the other millionaire on the plea
that money must seek money" Baron
Rothschild was not of the opinion, in
this case at any rate, and he pro-
ceeded to hunt up the lamented Ffd-
ler's relations, three of whom were
found at ODESSA and fourth at Brook
Ign. The legatee divided the million
and a quarter among them.

HAIR STEALING NOT NEW.
PiIferer of Woman's Charms at Work
Eighty Years Ago.

There was a remarkable scene in a
London police court on March IL,
eighty years ago. when a number of
poor. excited women stood before the
magistrate arguing as to whom should
be the spokeswoman. At length one
was found willing to voice the griev-
ance. 1t appeared that a barber nam
ed Rushton called at her poor abode,
and politely asked to look at her hair.
She took off her cap at his bidding,
and protesting to fall in raptures with
the beauty of its color and texture, he
offered a guinea for it. Being in
Strengthened circumstances the offer
was accepted, and Rushton at once
cut off the whole of her hair and ran
away without making any payment.
1t transpired that all the other wo-
men in court had been similarly treat
ed on the same day. Efforts were
made to catch the hair thief, but
without success.-London Answers.

Occupation and Tuberculosis.

The influence of occupation as a
cause of consumption is shown by DR..
]. NJ. French in the Medical Exam
liner.
At least four classes of employ
ments ments have tendency to favor
the development of tuberculosis.
They are:
1. Sedentary employments in i'll
ventilated apartments, involving con-
finement in impure air, and other I'M
wholesome conditions. This class of
occupations is typified by the So
called swet-shops for the manufacture
of various articles of clothing.
2. Employments which necessitates
the inhalation of irritating dust and
noxious vapors. Such are those of
stone-cutters, bleachers, matchmak,
ers, file-cutters, grinders, engravers,
etc.
8. Employments which involve the
overuse or abuse of certain muscles.
These are athletes, prize fighters,
gymnasts, wrestlers, professional BIZ
cycle riders, ball players, ETC., large
proportion of whom die eventually of
phthisis.
4. Employments which involve I'M
due familiarity with intoxicants.
These are those connected with man.
ufacture and sale of wine, beer and
the various classes of alcoholics.
Tatham's tables show that, taking the
average mortality from consumption
at one hundred, that of publicans is
one hundred and forty, of brewers one
hundred and forty-eight and of bar
tenders two hundred and fifty-seven.
Overcoming Hereditary Tuberculosis.
Much is being said nowadays re-
specting the out-of-door treatment of
tuberculosis, a disease which, while
rarely directly transmissible by hered-
ity, is one the predisposition to which
is in the highest degree hereditary.
1t has been clearly shown by numer-
GUS experiments in various parts of
the United States that out-of-dOor life
with regular hygienic habits, ire
spectfve of altitude or special climat-
ic advantages, is capable of so aiding
the natural powers of the body as to
effect a cure of this formidable NAL
adv without the use of drugs of any
sort.
tuberculosis is a disease of civiliza-
ton. 1t scarcely exists among saw
ages who live in the primitive state,
but quickly appears among such peo-
pie when the habits of civilization are
adopted, especially the indoor life.
The South American monkey and the
North American Indian alike fall vic
tins to this disease when shut away
from the sunlight and active exercise
out of doors.
The time is not far distant when
every large city will find it necessary
to provide conveniences for the APP
plication of this simple curative meas
ure, not only for the purpose of rescu-
ing the victims of pulmonary tuber
culosis from the certain fate which
awaits them, but as an essential
measure for protecting the public
health.
