THRILLING STORIES.
Where People Drink blood and
Bathe in the Same. Klever
way of Killing Woives
Some Thrilling Ad
ventures
“Did you ever see people bathe
in blood and drink it by the cup
ful!” asked Ellwood Johnson, of
Boston.
“I saw that very thing recently
in Rome during a tour of Europe.
It was at a place called theZooth
ennic Institute, and it is quite a
fad there. I have heard of people
drinking blood, fresh from slaugh
tered animals, for the cure con
sumption, all my life, but at this
institute people drink the blood,or
bathe in it, for the cure of gout,
rheumatism and the malaria,
which is such a curse in the mar
shes around Rome. The Roman
doctors have great faith in the
curative powers of blood, and the
patients claim to be benefited by
the treatment. For my part, hov.-
ever efficacious it is, I think I
would rather fall a victim to dis
ease than be cured by such to me.
revolting methods.”
One use of the whalebone to
which the Esq limaux put it, and
one case of which came under my
personal observation. I must not
allow to pass unnoticed, writes
Eugene Mellville, of the United
States Navy. Whenever wolves
have been unusually predatory,
have destroyed a favorite dog or
so, or dug up a cache of reindeer
meat just when it was needed, or
in any way have aroused the hire
of the Innuit hunter, he takes a
strip of whalebone about the size
of those used in corsets, wraps it
up into a compact helical mass
like a watch spring, having previ
ously sharpened both ends, and
then ties it together with reindeer
sinew, and plastersit with a com
pound of blood and grease, which
is allowed to freeze and forms a
binding cement sufficiently strong
to hold the sinew string at every
second or third turn. This, with a
lot of similar looking baits of meat
and blubber, is scattered over the
snow or ground, and the hungry
wolf devours it along with the
others, and when it is thawed out
by the warmth of his stomach, it
elongates and has the well known
effect of whalebone on the system,
but having the material advantage
of interior lines its effects are
more rapid, killing the poor wolf,
with the most horriable agonies, in
a couple of days,
‘‘A few years ago,” said Charles
J. Patterson, of Philadelphia, “I
learned the secret of the life of a
man who had passed more than a
quarter of a century with scarely a
Smile. He had been a physician
and surgeon, and on one occasion
had to remove an injurnedeye and
prevent total blindness. The night
before the operation he had been
drinking heavily with some friends
and allthough the following morn
ing he was sober, his hand was un
steady and his nerves unstrung.
After ad mistering chloroform he
made a fatal and horrible blun
der, removing the well eye by mis
take and thus ennsiging has pa
tient to prepetual blindness. The
moment he discovered his error
he turned the man over to a com
petent surgeon, deeded everything
he possessed to him. and hurried
from the neighborhood like a con
victed thief. The remainderof his
life was one constant round of re
morse, and he rapidly developed
into a confirmed misanthrope. The
secret of his life was known to a
numbs r of people, hut when it was
finally revealed to me it explained
a mystery and made me to respect
the man, for however grave was
his original blunder, which in
some respects was, of course, worse
than a crime, his repentance
was of the most genuine charac
| ter.”
A’man who hasjlied three times
has been describing his experiences
| He is a lim man connected with an
electric company. According to
| his story he was first knocked out
by an accumulation of gases in a
manhole: the next time was by an
electric shock, and the third by
sunstroke. “I don't see,” said he,
“why they make such a fussabout
suffering and all that from an elec
tric shock. I don't think it was
half had.” He was upon a pole
when the shogk came and was sitt
ing with his leg inter locked around
the pole. “When tlie shock came”
he said, “it just knocked me
backwards the same as if you had
hit me in the head with a hammer,
ami down I went, head first, but
not very far, because my locked
heels caught on the lowest cross
beam, and there I hung. My senses
were numbed right off, and I hadnt
the least sensation, except wait
ing rather unconcerned a couple
of seconds; then I lost my senses”
He says that by all odds the worst
was the sunstroke. For two hours
he suffered such torture as Dante
describes. All the time he was
conscious and the bad things he
had done in his life kept parading
themselves before him. He could
Ivar the people say that he was
dead, and could understand their
discussions over ways and means
to determine whether there was a
spark of life left —all this was go
ing on for several hours until he
did really lose all consciousness.
Aftes that he was for three weeks
in a hospital.
REMARKABLE FEATURES,
With Barnum £ Bailey’s Greatest
Show on Earth,
Every year for many past, the
pr>-ss and public have be-n wildly
enthusiastic over rhe extent and
magnificence of the Barnum &
Bailey Greatest Show on earth,
which will be seen here exact'y as
it wae in New York.
But what will be said of it this
year, superior as this season's
show is to all previous ones? In
deed the big show has been vastly
improved and enlarged in all de
partments to a most wonderful ex
tent.
Now in the circua department
alone one hundred acts are given
atjevery performance, afternoon
and evening by as’ many daring
champion equestrians, athletes,
gymnasts jugglers and acrobats.
There are twenty acts in which
perfectly trained animals are seen
with twmty comical clowns. Sev
eral of the flatter were acknowl -
edged to be the funniest fellows in
Europe before Barnum & Baily
engaged them.
After the acts in the three cir
cus rings and on the two elevated
stages numerous hippodrome races
take place, And after these the re
markable exhibition of trained an
imals in the specially constructed
iron-barred arena, in which lions
and lambs tigers and goats bears
and sheep ponies and elephants
and other wild and domestic beasts
take part.
Then there is Chiko and his
bride Johanna, the giant gorillas
only two of the world at present in
capivity. The grand Ethnological
Congress of k sawige and idolatrous
human beings,Jwith representatives
from nearly all the savage and
heathern countries in the world,
an equestrian exhibition by wild
and fierce Cossacks and hundreds
of others.
Besides the most marvelous feats
in mid-air the whole entertainment
is of such a grand character as t*o
amaze eyeryone. A Chidren circus,
too, especially provided for the
delection of the little folks. The
new million dollar free street pa
rade will take place on the morn
ing of the show’s arrival, and is
said to be the finest of its kind
on earth. It will all be here on
October 16th.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla is one of the
lew remedies which are recommend
ed by every school of medicine. Its
strength, purity, and efficacy are too
well established to admit of doubt as
to its superiority over all other blood
purifiers whatever. Ayer’s Sarsapar
illa leads all.
