In the Hours of s%Iumber.

Certain brute creatures can de with
out food a longer time with less harm
than they a do without sleep. Prof.
Paul Haupt of the Johns Hopkins uni
versity has accomplished twice as
much work as the ordinary man by
sleeping only two hours in the twenty
four for almost a generation. If it
were possible for him to stay awake
altogether there is no doubt he would
do SO.
The brain takes no rest in sleep.
unless you consider a change of activ-
ity rest; the heart does not falter in
its rhythm while natures alleged re-
etorer is on the job; nor do the lungs
and liver pause In their appointed
work during your Inconsistencies.
The blood flows, the kidneys work. the
stomach and vital organs carry on
their allotted tasks; consciousness
alone - dulled.

Resolutions by Post 1853.

At a regular meeting of Post 1853,
Carnegie, Pa, resolutions presented
by Chaplain John a. Sncdgrass were
passed expressing the gratitude of
the post for the splendid liberality
of the legislature Of Pennsylvania
and the state officials. which made it
possible for a large delegation from
the post to attend the Peace Jubilee
at Gettysburg. The resolutions also
commend the action of Governor
Tener in assuming the responsibility
Of returning to their homes those who
we're unfortunate enough to lose their
transportation, and expressed appre-
citation of his untiring energy and out
spoken patriotism.

LIFE TOO STRONG FOR POET
Able Young Frenchman Found IN
Death His Only Reward for
ignoring RsailtIes-

The death OF Louis Deubel, a young
poet Of the Latin Quarter. who, among
those whose verdict counts numbered
many sincere admirers, recalls the
tragedy Of John Davidson. Deubel's
dead body was found a few days ago
in the Marine and taken to the morgue.
IN the clothes Of the suicide were his
Livret Militaire and six soue. That
was all.
This Is a tragedy of poverty and a
poets pride. 1t was known that for
some time things had not been gong
well with Deubel. But of late he had
dropped out OF sight. He was never
seen at his customary cafe, and his
odd rooms were vacant, nor had he

Figaro writes his requiem. He tells
how Deubel left his post Of tutor at
Belfort and came in his early, eager
twenties. to tempt his poetic fortunes
in Paris.

Gregh. The thought only of verses, of
questions of meter, of schools OF liter
ature. That for him was the sole
reality of life. The rest-politics,
finance. commerce-were but shadowy
accidents" But I'll fallait WIRE" so
the poet, his Pegasus in harness, be-
came. in fact. a publishers hack.
From time to time he published a
slender volume, which critics praised
and the public ignored. And then he
dropped out OF sight" and nothing
more was known of him till his dead
body. with six sous in the pockets and
