A REMARKABLE EDITOR. Ho is Both Blind and Deaf, and Yet Works V ieorously and Successfully. From the Utica Observer. It -w as early in the past summer that Wil liam E. Cramer celebrated the fortieth an niversary of his editorship of the Keening Wisconsin, of Milwaukee, of which news paper he is also senior proprietor. This ven erable man is the most remarkable as well as the oldest newspaiier man in the West. He is totally blind, and as near totally deaf a l -any one can well be, and yet he is one of the smartest, shrewdest, most in dustrious, and best posted newspaper men in the country. He works as hard, reads and writes as much, and keeps closer office hours, in all probability, than any other newspaper man in the city. Of course it is necessary for him to dictate all of his editorial work to an amanuensis, who also reads to him by the aid of an audi phone, and in this way he manages to do as much work as most men who possess all of their senses. For fully forty years the blind editor has presiaed' over the' editorial columns of his paper, furnishing from one to several columns of matter every day dur ing this long and eventful period. The figure of this cheerful, chatty blind man is familiar to every man, woman or child in his section. He daily takes walks around the city, and, strange as it may seem, can find his way about as readily as any one possessing full eyesight. He can go alone to any particular spot or house in the city without the least trouble. Of late he is generally accompanied by a small boy, who walks by his side merely as a precau tion of safety and to please his family and friends. A guide is in no sense necessary He trots along without the use of a cane, and a stranger would never imagine that his handsome gray eyes were sightless. He lost his sight many years ago by excessive work in and out or season. His deafness is due to an accident that occurred when he was a boy. He was coasting on a New England hill one cold day in his youth, when his sled plunged through the ice and landed him in a frozen river. He was rescued more dead than alive, and though finally resuscitated, the experience cost him his sense of hearing. He is <0 years of age, as hale and hearty as many a man of 35, has made a handsome fortune, and is one of the solid men of the Cream City. A half century ago Mr. Cramer was a New York journalist, a mem ber of that brilliant group that had for its central figure the late Thurlow Weed, who was a warm friend and great admirer of the young man who was then preparing to invade the far Northwest to seek his for tune. Horace Greeley, and Raymond, of the old Times, were also intimates of Mr. Cramer, and he tells many interesting anec dotes and reminiscences of them and of other of the old-time journalists who have long since passed over to “the silent city.” The range of this man’s information is something to lie wondered at. He is a regu lar perambulating encyclopaedia, aud he can answer almost any question relating to the political or other imjiortant events of the past century at a moment’s notice. The memory Billy, as nearly all Mil waukeeans call him, is something marvel lous. When a fact is caught by the compli cated machinery of his brain it is held where the impalpable dust of ages cannot reach it. His library is large and well se lected. Among other rare things it is said to contain every printed record of the proceed ings of Congress. The contents of the Congressional Record from volume 1 to the last issue are at his tongue's end, and he can teli the date, page, or para graph of an important event that has been chronicled in tl i> cheerful and breezy pub lication since it first started. His in firmities have, ; anything, sharpened or qpickened hi- tue llv bright intellect, and he is to-day one of the very remarkable journalists of this country. A blind and deaf man at the head of a big newspaper is a journalistic novelty indeed. All the lead ing papers.of the country are systematically read to Mr. Cramet every day by his secre tary. The range of his information ex tends to the remotest corner of the tele graphic page of the latest issues of the me tropolitan dailies. Mr. Cramer's career has not been without thrilling and memorable incidents. He was in Europe during the Franco-Prussian war and was caught in Paris during its memor able siege. He lived on mule meat and suf fered many hardships until the capitulation of the city. When that famous old hotel, the ill-fated Newhall House, was erected in this city about thirty years ago, Mr. Cramer was the first regular boarder. He continued to live at this house until its destruction by fire on that terrible morning of Jan. id, ISB4, when 100 people were roasted to death by the catastrophe. Mr. Cramer was one of the last to leave the house, and ho escaped more dead than alive. His apartments were entirely • surrounded by flames when he was aroused. With liis wife he attempted to find his way out of the roaring furnace. Both were in their night clothes, which were nearly burned otf of them. The marble tiling in the halls was so hot that the flash was fairly roasted on their feet as they passed over them. They groped around until they were finally rescued, lioth in a fainting condition, and so horribly burned that it was feared for a long time neither could recover. The great building collapsed a moment, after they Were out. After a long siege both recov ered, but their escape was next to miracu lous. By this terrible fire the works of art, a fine private library, and the odds and ends which had been collected during Mr. Cramer's busy life were entirely destroyed, together with many valuables of various kinds, and all of Mrs. Cramer’s valuable diamonds. HOW WASHINGTON DIED. Medical Men Assert That He Was Bled and Blistered to Death. From the New York World. Washington, Sept. 18.—Thirty members of the late Medical Congress met in a social "■ay after the regular business of the day, in the parlor of a guest at one of the hotels. The delegates were elderly medical men of the so-called old school of doctors, but rep resenting progressive minds of the allo pathic branch of the medical profession; some of them had been professors in medical colleges many years ago. These old frionds in a conversational way compared notes relative to the radical changes which have taken place in the methods of treatment of diseases, the largo and frequent rio-.ee of calomel and other powerful remedies ad ministered to their patients in the practice of forty and fifty years ago, compared with the almost infinitesimal doses now prescribed and the now total abandonment of some remedies and inodes of treatment which were in general practice theu. The old time doctor and even the physi cian of but recent date formerly carried in Ins coat pocket a formidable' la nee, the s’ghtof which frightened his nervous w bent. With that instrument he proceeded by "'ay of preliminary preparation for a "course of medicine.’’ to open a large vein in the sick person's arm and therefrom draw Iron) a pint to a quart of blood. Then fol lowed the inevitable prescription of fifteen or twenty grains of calomel, ucc impunled by a 1 Kittle ot castor oil, and the patient would he "laid up" thereafter for some flays engaged in recovering from his heroic med i' el treatment. Now phlebotomy or blood letting has I wen almost, wholly alamdoned. 1 alotnel when prescribed at all is given in half-grain doses at intervals, ot three or four hours, and so on to the end of the list of old !>opular remedies. One of the physicians present, pursuing this theme, astonished hut hearers by s* S'-fting that the "Father of Hi* Country,’’ ben. George Washington, did not die a nat ural death, hut was killed by his doctors. Here several voire* simultaneously **- lamied That’s a libel! Where is your evidencef' Thereupon the supposed libeller produced '•"om a Georgetown, D. C.. newspaper, printed in 170, an account Of tba illness, death and burial of Gen. Washington, to gethar With LOe cerMftcate of the phyM'ians, yr. Cnuk and IhcF, wbu usatwi the iliu* tnous patient in his last illness. Theoertif icate of these physicians, who resided about fifteen miles from Georgetown, showed that Gen. Washington, having been exposed to rain on Friday, Dec IS. in the night of that day was attacked with chills, accompanied with pain in the upper and fore part of the throat, coughing, a difficult rather than painful swallowing, succeeded by fever and quick and laborious respiration. “General Washington,” says the account, “regarding the attack as only a severe cold, would not send for a physician, but called in one of his servants, a bleeder, so-called, who took from the sick man’s arm nearly a pint of hlood, which was a goodly portion of the vigorous, healthy life of the patient. The patient was about in that condition un til the arrival of his physician at 10 oclock the next morning (Saturday), when the doc tors proceeded to repeat the bleeder’s opera tion, and twice within about four hours took other two pints or quarts of blood. In the interim were employed two copious bleedings, a blister was applied to the part affected, two moderate dose of calomel were given, succeeded by repeated doses of tartar emetic, amounting to five or six grains, with no other effect than a copious discharge from the bowels.” “This was treatment of the heroic kind,” interjected the alleged libeller, “which was enough to kill any ordinary well man, and was evidently doing the business for the gen eral, for the learned doctors add: “The powers of life seemed now manifestly yielding to the force of the disorder. Blis ters were applied to the extremities together with a cataplasm of bran and vinegar to the throat. Speaking, which was painful from the beginning, now became almost imprac ticable. Respiration grew more and more contracted and imperfect until 11:30 o’clock on Saturday night, when, retaining the pos session of his intellect, he expired without a struggle.’ “No wonder,” remarked tho alleged libel ler. “How could ho struggle after losing about all the blood in his. Ixidy, with huge blisters aiding in the depletion of vital strength and his stomach crammed with tartar emetic and calomel, so that there was no room for food or fluids, which he should have had to keep up the system ? Poor man, how he must have suffered; and he could not mnke them stop their torture, although he seems to have tried to do so. But the medical men certify that after rejieated efforts to be understood he succeeded in ex pressing a desire that he might lie permitted to die without interruption. There, my brother doctors, are you convinced? Wasn't that a clear case of malpractice?” “No, sir,’’ humorously responded a brother doctor. “That was in accordance with the treatment adopted by that eminent physi cian, Dr. Sangrado, who had a large practice in Spain over 200 years ago, which practice, as imparted by the renowned San grado to his apt student Gil Bias, consisted in copious bleeding and keeping the patient’s body filled with hot water.” Carlyle’s Ghost. From the London Globe. Seldom can there be seen in any decent street in a London suburb a house so dingy, dilapidated and squalid-looking as this. All the lower window panes have been shat tered (by stone-throwing apparently) and tho broken glass is lying on the dirty sills and on the rubbish heaps in the damp area of the basement. A house agent’s board,half thrown down, bore a torn printed paper an nouncement, “This House to Let;’’ the shut ters of the rooms were closed, and all very dirty; the brickwork was discolored with rain, and getting loose and broken; the whole aspect of the house was if it had been , deserted for half a century. I think there is sufficient matter for the growth of a myth or traditionary ghost story concerning Carlyle, in the following incident which took place on the evening of this same day in May, ISB7, of which I have been speaking. It was getting dark, aud a lady who lives in Cheytie row was coming homo. As she passed No. 5 she saw a group of childreu and young girls standing before it, in the roadway, looking up at the house and speaking in eager whis pers. She know one of the girls and asked her what was the matter—what they were looking at. The girl replied with hesita tion; “Oh! ma’am, we are waiting to see the ghost." “Indeed! Where is there a ghost?” The other girls came close to her, and they pointed and nodded their heads gravely at the empty house of the Carlyles. “Have any of you seen this ghost?” asked the lady, with much interest in the matter. “No, ma’am. We haven’t seen it, but my sister Folly was told that Mrs. .Smith at the shop saw it." “Who told Polly?” asked the lady. “Aunt Eliza, or leastways, somebody that heard it from Aunt Eliza.” “Oh? Then it was Mrs. Smith who saw tho ghost ?’ “Oh, yes. Mrs. Smith, last Friday evening.” “What w r as the ghost like?” Then the girls all whispered at once, “It was a tall old man, with white hair, and he was wrapped in a great white sheet.” Then they all looked with curious, eager timidity, up at the broken windows of the ground floor. “Did Mrs. Smith see him there, with the shutter closed like that?" asked the lady. There was a pause, and then one of the girls said: “No! The shutter must have been open, and the window, too.” “How do you know that?” inquired the lady. “Oh: Because Aunt Eliza said he heck oned to Mrs. Smith, and she was in a great fright, but she had to stop Localise he spoke to her.” “He spoke to her? Do you know what he said?” “Oh, yes! He spoke in in a strange, faint sort of voice, and said, ‘bring me two penn’orth of tobacco.”' The lady did not laugh, hut she tried to dispel the superstitious ideas of the girls, by saying: “Don’t you think it is likely to have tieen old Barnes, the jiainter, in his white coat and apron ? He may have been sent into the house by the owner to do some job there, and he can't get on with his work unless he, smokes, you know?” They did know; but they did not seem willing to adopt her commonplace view of the matter, and she left them still looking at the broken windows, expecting to see, the ghost. A ghost that calls for “two jienn’ort.h of tobacco" in the empty house No. 5 Cheyne row! A more appropriate burlesque could not have lieen invented by the cleverest of our many writers who devote their talents to making men and things ridiculous. Car lyle himself, in the flesh, would have felt the humor of it and enjoyed it immensely. An Elder’s Unique Way of Advertising fr'rnm the [Sihotel Beit. Elder Blodgett was one of tho old timers who used to preach in a town in the south eastern part of Dakota Territory. On week flays lie carried fin a piosperous livery stable business. There was n great deal of competition between him and the Justice of the place in marriage ceremonies, and they hod cut the former price of 415 down to a much lower figure. One day a couple who lived down on the bottoms were married by the elder. After the ceremony tin- groom acknowledged that he hadn't a cent, and askwl the elder to trust him until fall. •‘l'll tell you what I’ll do,” replied the minister. "You and ver wife just agree to drive around town a little while, carrvin' a sign advertisin' my business, an’ I’ll call it square ” They agreed to do it, and in a few minutes the blushing bride and the proud gi 'om were riding about the street* up <m a high seat in a lumber wagon, learing aloft a canvas sign reading as follows: "We were spliced by the Reverend Ed ward Bioodgood. and we like his styla Cast, tfi —ehteuswt place In town Htudy located at Red Front Bern Fay no attention to justices or 'ither id* iwher*. but go right to the Elder for your mttrylMl Money cheerfully refunded in case of Divorce.
