The Burney Tailoring Co, 220 Broadway, NEARLY A PANIC. i Actors Rehearsing a Piny Cause Excite* inent In a Chit ago Hotel. There came near being a panic in the reading room of the Great Northern the other day. Archie Boyd, the actor who used to play Den Thompson’s part in “The Old Homestead” and who starred last season in a new play of his own called “The Country Squire,” was here some weeks ago to consult Cow T. Mur phy, the playwright, as to alterations in this play. He wanted a new second act, and after talking inarterg over with Murphy he left the latter hard at work on his manuscript at his Lake Bluff home. One day last week he wired Murphy that he would meet him at the Great ( Northern at a certain time and read over the altered play with him. The ' author was on hand at the appointed I time, and so was the star. Together j they repaired to the reading room and , set about their task. Mr. Murphy read quietly until his enthusiasm overcame | him. Then he threw cautflik to the , winds and exclaimed: “My God, you have stolen my child!” ' A guest from Oregon, Bl*., looked i up from a letter he was wrllig to the folks, and then he edged uneasily to waid the end of the table. “ ’Tis false, ” roared Boyd. “I am no kidnaper. ” * • “You lie!” exclaimed Murphy in loud tones, throwing the manuscript aside, and the man from Oregon started for the door, while a commercial man from Toledo leaned back in his chair to see it out. The author and star had shifted to a ' quiet love scene, when Landlord Eden I came in at the request of the Oregon I man to see what the trouble was. When | he told the latter what was up, he apol ogized profusely and wanted to buy pop I for the party. When Boyd plays in Oregon, the stranger will be in the au dience. —Chicago Times. WONDERFUL NERVE. ■ AManVGio Looked on Calmly While the Surgeons Cut <>lT His l oot. Thomas E. Byrnes, a molder, had a portion of his right foot crushed by be- I ing run over by a Lake Roland car yes | terday morning, which necessitated the amputation of about oue-l>aif of the foot. i During the amputation .Byrnes gave one i of the most .tolid exhibitions of nerve and impassiveness to pain twr witness ed. Drs. R. F. Blake and Geer matte ■ preparations to put their patient under the influence of chloroform for this pur pose, but when Byrnes was informed of what they were about to do he amazed them by telling them to go ahead with the cutting, but that he didn’t want a narcotic. The physicians feared he couldn’t stand it, robust as he is, and plainly told him so, but Byrnes was firm and said he would get through it all right Then the surgeons proceeded as gen tly as possible. The pain must have been terrible. Just imagine taking a knife and sinking it down into the flesh, sever ing bones and joints! “It’s enough to make one shudder, ’ ’ said a bystander, a surgeon, too, accustomed to the horrors of a surgical hospital. But Byrnes never even winced. He sat in the chair with folded arms, braced himself against the back of the seat and watched the move ments of the knife. There was no moan, no rolling of the eyes, no twitching— absolutely no indication of the terrible pain except the pallor of his face. The operation over, Byrnes thanked the sur geons, who seemed to be far more con cerned and anxious that the job come to an end than the heroic patient.—Bal timore American. r DUCKED IN SACKS. But the Saltan’s Affection Made the Opera tion a Mild One. Odd stories are coming from Constan tinople in connection with the recent earthquakes. One has bens of G jus- suf Block, physician to tKe sultan. The earthquake damaged the part of the palace in which he lives, and suddenly two favorite wives of the sultan were precipitated through the ceiling into the doctor’s room. All three fled from the building before it collapsed and found the sultan himself in the court yard. The stern practice of Islam left the 'sultan no choice but to tie up his two wives in sacks and plunge them into the Bosporus, they having been gazed upon by a profane giaour. Fortunately the sultan cherished affection for both of them, and having consulted the grand mufti he saw his way to have them pun ished symbolically. They were put into sacks which were properly sewed up and duly taken to sequestered spots on the banks of the Bosporus, and in the presence of a number of praying imams gently dipped into the soft, blue waters, after which the women were deemed to be purified. They were then removed to a new home and restored to their con | jugal rights.—London Truth. A Strike Mail Route. Talk about red tape! The recent strike was productive of some remarkable spec imens. Mail matter from this place to Rosedale has to go via Jewetta, and it cannot be sent in any other way. As the trains to the north were blocked, while there were one or two south bound, Postmaster Miller, acting raider instructions, sent mail matter for Rose; dale to Los Angeles, where it was trans ferred to San Pedro, took the steamer to San Francisco and finally was taken to Jewetta by train and thence to its j destination, just eight miles from where j it started. —Bakersfield California. Pope L.eo’» Mistake. , The pope is said to have made an awk ward and amusing mistake when Mr. J. G. S. Cox, editor of The Tablet, Lon don, was presented to him. C atching of the words of introduction only the announcement that his visitor was the editor of a celebrated English paper, the pope, with a radiant smile, said, “Il Punch. ” The pope is pardonable if be doesn’t read all the religious papers lent to the Vatican. —Boston Transcript. THE HUSTLER OF ROME. SUNDAY SEPTEMBER, 16 1894. STUDYING HUMAN NATURE. Novel and Valuable Scientific Work Now Being Curried on In Washington. A new kind of scientific work is lie ing carried on in Washington, in v> Inch the testing of 25,000 school children mentally, morally and physically is the preliminary step. Dr. Arthur McDonald i is conducting the work under the aus ' pices of the United States bureau of ed ucation, and the results when arranged ami tabulated are expected to throw valuable light upon a number of mooted questions concerning the race. For example, it is desired to know whether boys of the labo? .ng class are less bright than the sons of the well to do. Are they as well nourished? In , London not long ago investigation , proved that the children of laboring ' people in that metropolis were better 1 nourished—that is to say, weighed more j at the same age—than those belonging , to higher social strata, the latter being fed on too much candy and cake. ( | The work here being unfinished, con , elusions cannot be stated. To begin j with, the height and .sitting height of ' each child were taken. Long bodied I j races, generally speaking, are inferior. ■ It is desired to know if long bodied i individuals are less clever or less strong I ! than the short bodied of the same race. [ Are long bodied boys and girls apt to be | stupid? Long headed children are usu ally tall. Tall people are most often long headed. Tall races are superior. The question naturally follows, Are long headed children superior mentally? When it is said that a man has a long ' head, is there not significance in the re ' mark? i Are tall children, then, superior? No | body knows as yet. These are among the : things which Dr. McDonald is trying to find out. In the classification the 8,000 negro children in Washington schools have been kept separate, so as to compare them with white children. How do they compare in respect to brightness, weight, physical measure ments, etc. ? The colored child surpasses the white child up to 5 years of age in mental development, then the white I child goes ahead. Comparisons of girls 1 ; with boys naturally follow. At the age of entering womanhood girls weigh more than boys. That age with city girls arrives a year earlier than with country girls.—Boston Transcript. ' I COLUMBUS TOOK A TUMBLE. ■ It Was the Last Day of the California Fair, and He Was All Broke Up. ■ i Truth crushed to earth will rise again, but there is no such hope for the [ I statue of Columbus at the fair. It lay i on the ground in the grand court xecent i ly shattered to a thousand pieces. Co ,l lumbus came off his perch about 10 I o’clock in the forenoon, and as he was i ■ large and portly he struck the ground ; i with a dull thud. His right leg clung to the pedestal, the indications being - that that limb had been pulled, the i fracture being committed at the knee, j Columbus wore no whiskers at the ex -1 position, but the wind was attracted to j i him nevertheless. It sought to lift the i long locks that hung over his shoulders, II and in this effort it toppled their big r owner from his commanding elevation i, in the valley of the court. People who 3: are affected by coincidences did not fail . I to comment on his passing way on the I day that was practically the last of the - I fair. He had seen the glories of the 3! exposition come and go, and some >I persons imagined that the memories he cherished overcame him as if he . were an animate being. The knowledge 3 that the fair was over and that he was . to be taken away to some obscure and strange place broke him all up, they said. He had been ailing for several days. When it was evident by the in clination of his head that he was unbal anced, measures were taken to keep him from injuring himself, but he finally broke from the ropes that restrained c him, and the fall of Caesar was nothing in comparison to his. The statue was made of a sort of plaster and was part -1 ly hollow, being devoid of lungs and other internal organs.—San Francisco ’ Chronicle. i I, Novel Ground For a Suit For Damages. I Lawyers are ever ready with new •‘ methods of procedure and novel grounds for action, but there is an Englishman > who has just made himself prominent ’ in his profession as a deviser of a unique ’ I basis for a suit for damages. I I He has entered suit against a news ’' paper asking damages and an injunction on the ground that his practice has been I injured by the newspaper withholding his name in cases where he has been 1 successful and publishing it only in 1 j cases which he has lost. Eminent coun sel have been retained on both sides, and I the action will be bitterly contested.— II New York HeraM. I , Mixed the Babies. i Among the curiosities of typography a prominent place must be given to the I recent achievement of a Chicago paper in the mixing up of headlines in a most startling manner. First there is an ar ticle with this caption: THE CONDOR OF THE ANDES. Albert Seaton Hery of Kentucky Hears That Distinction. In another column on the same page of the paper in question is this an nouncement: TALLEST MAN IN CONGRESS. Soars Far Above the Eagle and Reaches a Height of Six Miles. I —Buffalo Commercial. What Senator Hill Said. With the echo of his defense of Presi dent Cleveland still ringing in the ears of his colleagues, Senator Hill walked into the cloakroom and dropped into an easy chair to chat with Senator Smith. Presently a page appeared, carrying a note inclosed in a large square envelope addressed to Senator Hill. ' “Ah!” said Mr. Smith, with a tone of inquiry, “an invitation to dine with the president tonight?” Senator Hill looked up from the note with a twinkle in his eye. “Not at this stage of the game,’’said he.—Wash ington Post. fita H Co Sciiediilo.
