The Doctor’s Sole Object Is to Render 8 Service to Humanity. ' NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—-Dr. P. J. Gib. bone of Syracuse. ' who claims that he can resuscitate with the aid of an apparatus of his own invention a person who has been electrocuted, was in this city yester- day. He exhibited the apparatus and ex- plained his theories to some medical men and reporters. His theory is that the elec- tric current passing through the body of the victim does not destroy any nerve tis- sues or nerve centers, but produces sus- pended animation. He claims that Dr. Louis Duncan and Dr. Powell of the this theory. , Dr. Gibbons says that he has no finan- cial or pecuniary interest in bringing his resuscitate: before the public, his sole ob- ject being, to render a service to humanity by rest’oring-to life any person who to all outward appearance has succumbed to a shock of electricity, asphyxiation by gas, drowning or opium poisoning. He intends leaving an apparatus at Bellevue hospital and one each with Dr. Austin O’Malley of _Washington, Dr. Charles Hoban of Philadelphia and Dr. Gibbons of this city. “Were you disappointed, doctor, when permission to experiment on an electro- cuted murderer was refused you?” asked a reporter. , “I was both surprised and disappoint- ed, ” he replied, “as I understood Govern- or Flower was willing to allow me to make the test, and when I first spoke to the attorney general he was of the opin- ion that I would not violate any law~ by doing so. However, when he came to read up the law he decided differently. I hope before long that the efficacy of my inven- tion will be proven beyond a doubt, and Iain anxious to have it in as many places as possible, so that it may be handy in case of an accident. I am willing that the apparatus be made by any person and in any shape, ” said the doctor._ Policemen Must Pay.

When scarce THEY RIDE TO SCHOOL. Fun in the Omnibuses, that are Account- able for Regular Attendance. It is a. very different thing going to school in New York City today from what it_ was even a few years ago. And what a vastly different thing it is from going to school up in the country, where the little red schoolhouse is always at least half a. mile from any inhabited sec- tion. Up there the children walk that half mile through fields of daisies in summer, mayhaps, and through fields of snow in Winter. In New York, in the upper districts, where the schools are further apart than they are in the more closely settled sec- tions, the children ride to school. Not in their own carriages, but in omnibuses furnished by the city. Rainy days have no effect upon the at- tendance whatever, for the stages stop at the children’s houses to pick them up, and so the little ones are exposed to the elements for only a few moments. The continual attendance, too, unquestionably has a beneficial effect upon the progress made in the studies, as every teacher knows that a few absences are more de- trimental than stupidity. I The system ought to be introduced in the country districts. It is practical, not expensive and unquestionably very bene- ficial. In the country, too, the stages can be hired much cheaper than in the city. WONDERFUL HELEN KELLER. The Little Girl Who Was Born Deaf, Dumb and. Blind, Learned to Speak. It is an interesting story that of Miss Helen A. Keller, who, born into the world deaf, dumb, and blind. and who has ac- quired a cultivation which would be re« markable in a girl her age who possessed every normal faculty. She is now thir- teen years Old, and byher own determine. tion and application has learned to speak, an accomplishment which she acquired in a month after only eleven lessons. Her whole education has practically been ac- quired within the. past six years and in- cludes an elementary knowledge of nat- ural history, cosmo‘graphy, mythology, biography and English literature. She is an insatiable reader, and her memory is as remarkable as her power to assimilate what she learns by reading. The teacher under whom her studies were begun wrote of her two years ago: ”She is a phenomenal child, and in every sense a remarkable person. Her gifts are manifold. Her mind is as clear as her brain is fertile, while her heart flames with earnestness and glows with charity. She is the finest illustration of consecrated, unselfish, whole-souled de- votion that childhood has ever Offered to the vision of men or that of. gods. She combines largeness of view with subtlety of mind, breadth with keenness, vigor with delicacy, knowledge with genialty, tact with common sense, reason with warmth, enthusiasm with self-control, noble aspirations, gentle manners. intense feelings, incessant thinking, native good- ness, a passion for learning and self-im- provement, a thirst for righteousness, and a. hunger for holiness, all unite in placing her above ordinary mortals.” So far Miss Keller’s education has been acquired in rather a desultory fashion, but now that she has been taught to speak and can un derstand the slow speech of others by placing her fingers lightly on their lips and throat, her parents have de- cided that her education and mental de. velopment should proceed on more regu- lar lines. ADVANTAGE OF A RACING MATE. Flying Jib’s Mile in 1:58 1-4 was Paced \Vitli Racing Help. The mile in 1 58 1-4 paced by Flying Jib with a. running mate on the kite track at Chillicothe derives its chief interest from the fact that, it demonstrates what ex- treme speed is possible under certain favorable conditions. Hitched with a galloper to a. skeleton wagon, the pacer was free to skim along up to his utmost limit, while the mute took the weight of the wagon and driver, and, moreover, supplied the incentive of racing company. Light harness horsemen have always looked upon records made with the aid of a. running mate with a certain amount of good-humored contempt, and for this ’reason only one previous effort—ltgat of e " in ‘ ' eleven years tO‘IIOWOI‘ the record made at Ayres P. in 1893—has been me. this way of going by-Westmont at the , old “Test Side Park in Chicago. Thequestion naturally arises,‘if Fly- ing Jib, an unreliable performer, is thus. enabled, to cover a mile in such phenom?- nal time, what could Robert J. or Al it do under similar couditions?-N. Y.

Trousered Wheclwomen, An gored at the Treatment they Receive from the Men of Creation, Threaten to Carry Revolvers; and Police Whistles, and to Use Them too. There was an exciting meeting of the the \Vomen’s International Cycle Club in New York the other day. The subject discussed (and to an extent the “dis” could be omitted) 'was man of the bad, gibing and ungallant species. Mrs. Hollahan and Mrs. ‘Bell’ made some re- marks reflecting upon masculine haters of bloomers, and then ,a prettylittle wo- . ’ , slightly built, with fiuflfy brown hair, and big blue eyes arose and told her tale of misery. ‘ “I was going overrthe 160th street just yesterday,” she said, “when a beast of a. man up on top of a. big coal wagon, with his faceIall black, yelled at me. . ‘You bet if I was your husband, you [crazy idiot, a- scaring—my horses, I’d make you do some- thing else than ride around like a man on a blasted bicycle.’ ” ' ’ Tears came into the youu g woman's eyes as . she finished her tale. She was succeeded by one young woman after an- other, all with stories of injustice. Mrs. Hollohan waited patiently until they had all finished, and then, like Mrs. Bell, she asked, “What shall we do about this?” Mrs. Bell rose again, and every one kept quiet while she spoke. “I just tell‘you,” she said, ”when any man makes a remark at you, and keeps on insulting you, why, if he is worth the attention dismount from your wheel and slap him real good‘ right in the face. ,If . the man ain’t worth slapping, why, of course you have to let him go. I was the second woman to ever wear bloomers, and I have had some experience. I have al- ways found that when you slap a man once real hard he will let you alone”; Then she sat down with a determined shake of her head. Of course this cour~ ageous speech caused much excitement and hand clapping. As soon as it had subsided, a small, mild mannered woman arose, and with a wave of her hands made a speech advocating the use of re volvers, knives and other gore-letting in- struments. The proposition had differ- ent effects upon the diiferent members of the club. Some turned pale, others seem- ed fired with aburning desire to slaught- er the next man who shouted at them, while others were too astonished to ap- prove or disapprove. .r A long and heated discussion followed upon'pistols and knives and whether the police would allow them to carry Weap- ons. It was finally ended by Mrs. Holla- han rapping for order and giving the club a severe talking to about the si iness of the idea. of carrying weapons. he said that if such a discussionshould reach the ears of their enemies, the anti~woman bicyclists, nothing would please them better and that they would be ridiculed by every one. . Some of the members looked upon thei President admiringly, while others were not ready to drop the fascinating topic of pistols and other blood-curdling imple- ments. Mrs. Bell wasI.IIheard to mur- mur: ’ . . , "Well, I’ve got a. pistol and I am going to carry it.” , . m A Sun reporter called upon Mrs. Bell 130 ask about the pistol she carried. “Now, really, you don’t suppose I would have a real big pistol, with bullets in it, do you?” she asked | in answer to a question as to what make of revolver she preferred for bicyle use. “I mean a little ammonia pistol—one of those you squirt at a dog to make him quit biting at your feet when you are'riding.”, “Oh, you don’t carry a gun, then, do you?” said the reporter. “Certainly I don’t,” replied Mrs. Bell, “and I think it just horrid for the papers to say I do.” . Mrs. Merry, the most enthusiastic mem- ber of the club, says she has reduced her weight from 238 pounds to 210, her pre- sent weight. She believes 'in carrying 8. whistle, and when asked about it, said: “Why, yes, I have got a policeman’s whistle audI am going to use it when- everI need a policeman. Why, just last week I was coming dowu \Vest Boule- vard when a. boy deliberately threw a. large stone at me and hit me with it, too, Oh, but didn’t I whip him, though! I just got down from my wheel and grab- bed him and beat him until he yelled for mercy. “These ruflians who drive wagons are the worst, though. They» yell at me every time I go out.- I know I am stout, and that my bloomers made me look stouter, but I like them, and am going to wear them as much as I_ please. A few days ago a man insulted me and I went around to the West Sixty-eighth street police station and complained about it, and told the Sergeant I was going to get me a police whistle and use it. He told me to go ahead, that it was all right and I am going to do so.” oaa Little Item; Telephones employ 10,000 Americans. A single hair will bear a weight of 1,150 grains. .
