BLUE and
DRY IN GREAT
METROPOLIS

New York. Dec. 16-With the firm
belief that it never will happen again,
New York went through its second
"blue" Sunday without whimper.
Not a theater or concert hall WAS
open. Roller skating Kinks and
dance halls in some parts OF the city
were operated under injunctions or
without charging admission. With
few exceptions, the 500 penny and
nickel arcades throughout the city
were closed
In addition to having 'blue"
Sunday, New York also had in mill
measure. ''dry" Sunday. Only
those saloons conducted under a
Raines law license were open. In
Brooklyn more than 30 saloons were
closed after arrests for violation of
the Sunday laws had been made.
In few instances there were
clashes between the police and owners
of amusement places, and few ar
rests were made. No attempt was
made by any of the we'll known theat-
rical managers to give performances.

LATEST MAN ON EARTH.
Mr.. Th,mpson, Perfectly Well, In Bee
twenty. nine Years.

A man named Thompson, who lives
with his mother at Clare. Lurgan, Ire
land. can justly claim to be the LATEST
man on earth. He went TO bed in 1877,
never leaving it till fortnight ago.
and then only by compulsion.
Thompson was boy of eleven when
he abandoned all other worldly pleas
ures for a life of comfortable ease in
bed, says correspondent of the Buff
falo News. lie was looked after by
his mother, and very few of the viii
layers at Glare We're even aware Of
his existence.
There is every reason to believe that
Thompson would have remained in bed
until the end of his life had not crisis
occurred in his domestic affairs. Mrs.
Thompson was taken i'll and had to be
removed to the ntrmary. Left help
leSsly alone, Thompson was compelled
to get up.
\ search was begun for some of the
clothes which he discarded twenty
years ago but he was unable to dress
without assistance
Two neiShbors were called in. and
the work of squeezing him into the out
grown suit occupied whole evening.
When dressed he was too tired to
walk, and an ambulance had to be
brought to convey him to the union.
Thompson reposed at the wOrkhouse
until his mother was well enough to
leave the intirmary. when he followed
her home. He was compelled to walk
this time. as the guardians refused al
ambulance.
The facts Of this extraordinary case
came out when the relieving officer ap-
Piled to the guardians for relief for
Mrs. Thompson. who has only occa-
sional help from some more energetic
sons who emgrated to Australia She
was allowed Is pence week.
Inquiries show that numerous med.
ica men have tried their hands at
stimulating Thompson out of his chron.
ic lethargy.
Irritating plastcrs We're applied. but
they had no power to irrtate him.
Mild electric currents left him unruf.
fed, and finally in despair the doctors
left him to enjoy the serene calm they
were unable to disturb.
Thompson is quite healthy and suf-
! fers only from chronic laziness. He
has remained in bed since his return
home.
