Visit to Historic Grounds.
Following as custom inaugurated by
it several years ago, of observing the
snuiverssry of the evacuation of the
city of Philadelphia by the British in
1778 by an excursion to some point of'
interest connected with the War of the
Revolution, the Pennsylvania Society

For the third time the Seaside club

He was picked up and taken to the
Bridgeport hospital where he died at
,3 o’clock. His skull was crushed, both
arms were broken and his right foot all
but severed.
There was nothing on the man to
identify him. He had no coat or hat
and was about 80 years old, with fair
complexion and a' smooth face and
weighed about 170 pounds.

The Marble Faun.
The Messrs. Houghton, Miffiin Sr 00.,
Boston’s most noted publishers, have
issuedu new 1895 cdxtion of the com-
plete works of Nathaniel Hawthorne
and which should have a place in every
public and private library in the land.
Of all ihc bright galaxy of American
authors, none exceed Hawthorne. in
beauty of conceit, descriptive power,
the continued maintainance of and
absorbing interest in, his classic com-
positions. Of all his fascinating crea-
tions, his last written book, The Marble
Faun, now before us, is deemed his
best work, although written with a
heart heavily burdened with illness
and domestic afflictions. No student
in our schools, emulous to acquire the
nicer graces of elegant English com-
posrtion, can do better than to take
Hawthorne as a model, and The Marble
Faun is especially, a” gem, in the way

_ HE DIDN’I JUMP.
“D00” White Found Hugging a
Gas Main Under the Wall
Street Bridge.
Placed Under Arrest and Fined.
About 12:30 o’clock Sunday morning,
the attention of Officer Bartram was at-
tracted to some one calling from a.
closet at the rear of the Wilson build-
ing, corner of Wall and Water streets,
“Come out of there Doc.” He walked
to the bridge and lighting a match dis-
covered 0. man lying across the large
‘gas main under the bridge, and recog-
nized him as John White, in the employ
of Tracy the expressmun.
The officer immediately rapped for
assistance but before another officer
arrived Oliver Burton and John Tully
appeared on the scene, Burton climb-
ed over the ruilini‘: and attempted to
assist White, who refused to move from
his perilous position. A rope was then
procured from the telephone station
and a. slip-noose made, which John
Tully slipped over one of White’s legs
and he was dragged to the edge of the
bridge and from there lifted over the
bridge railing.
White then laid down on‘thc walk
and refused to budge. After some dif-
ficulty the handcuffs were placed on
his wrists and he was carried to the
station house. , .
The story of his crospadc as told to a
GAZETTE reporter is that White is seek—
ing notoriety ns 9. bridge jumper and
that one night last week he made a.
wager that he would jump from the
Wall street bridge. The conditions
were favorable at 12:30 yesterday morn-
ins.r inasmuch that White was under the
influence of drink and it was high tide.
He started out to make the jump, while
one or two of his friends went around
to the rear of tho Lockwood building
and secured a bout to take him in as he
floated down the river.
for the splash that would necessarily
follow the jump but waited in vain.
Evidently White when he reached the
gas-pips lost heart, and concluded to
remain there and give those in waiting
the impression that he had made the
jump and then claim the wager. But
his scheme didn’t work, and as stat-3d
above be was gathered in by thcpolice.
A Story, yesterday morning, that he
contemplated suicide was denied by
those who are his friends, and to the
majority of those acquainted with him
it looks like an attempt to “jolly” his
friends. .
It is also stated that he sent to New
Yorkashorttime since, and tried to
enter into negotiations with Steve
Brodie the Brooklyn bridge jumper,
but this story is also denied.
This morning he was taken before
Judge llubbell, and Prosecuting Attor-
ney Gregory read a. complaint against
him allegingr drunkenness, breach of
the peace and resistance to the officer
who placed him under arrest. He was
fined $5 and cost on the first count ac-
quitted on the scornd count, and fined
35 and costs on the third count. The
fine and costs amounting: to $17.75.
White was remanded in charge of the
officer to give him an opportunity to
settle up.
A Narrow Escape.
What came near being.1r a tragedy,
occurred last night at the residence of
Mrs. Ellen Sherwood of Belden avenue.
The nurse of the infant. child of Frank
Selleck, in attempting to go down stairs
with a light-ed lump, fell to the bottom,
the lamp fiyinnj ahead of her and going
, to pieces. The flames from it were ex—
tinguished before igniting the nurse’s
clothing and as she was not very scri-
ously hurt by the fall, it proved a most
fortunate escape from a serious acci-
dent.

The Englishmen Developing Intense Ro-

LONDON, J 11119 24.—~The half disguised
contempt with which Englishmen have
been discussing the work of the Cornell
crew at” Henley has entirely disappeared.
The Cornell boys have been improving
daily during the past week. ‘
When they rowed over the course yester-
day in 7 minutes 10 seconds, which is
within 90 seconds of the fastest time on
record, the English spectators suddenly
developed amazing respect for the Amer-
ican visitors, Whom they have been un-
manncrly enough to affect to despise.
Moreover, the Cornell men rowed as strong
at the finish as any crew over soon on the
course, ,yvhich quite belied the home crit-
ics, who have been declaring that no crew
would be able to maintain the terrific pace
which Cornell uses. .
The Americans are all in the best of
health and spirits, which is not true of
some of“ their most formidable rivals,
There are weak spots both in the Thames
and London crews, so that many believe
Cornell will find her most dangerous ri-
vals,a_fter a11,in the Canadian visitors. Mr.
Courtney, Cornell’s trainer, says little,
but is more than satisfied with thc‘situa-
tfon and outlook.
