Ought—no n a. Neighbor of Jay Gould
“I! Is Very Wealthy.
I IN walking down Forty-seventh street
i ’ other day, attentively regarding Jay
d’s new parlor curtains, when the
our or a house very near his opened, and
: fine looking; middle aged gentleman
ped out, walked deliberately out to the
of the brown stone steps and fell
eadlong into the street.
5. An instant later a colored man rushed
‘ ‘t of the house, ran down the steps and
- h the fallen one, saying as he did so:
:“You should not venture out alone, sir.
~ on know you have fallen so many times.”
. Now this was more remarkable than the
mthat Jay Gould had new window cur-
, , so I at once transferred my atten-
Etlon. Was he an invalid? Surely not,
i'with such a color and such a physique.
’Ah, I had it. He was a victim of the dis-
ease called locomotor ataxia. so named, a
‘flippant medical student once said, “be-
cause when it attacks you, you can’t loco
inote." But when the gentleman began
to ascend the steps he walked with a step
that was perfectly firm and steady. though
very deliberate.
I was wrong again, for people afflicted
with the above mentioned disease have a
wobbly, uncertain gait that is painful. By
this time the object of my attention had
entered the house, the door was closed, and
as there was nothing particularly commu
nicative about the closed front of a stone
house I was not likely to have my curiosi-
ty satisfied.
A REMARKABLE AFFLICTION.
But fortune favors even the ubiquitous
news gatherer sometimes. As I stood wait
ing—I knew not for what-a carriage drove
up, a doctor’s carriage, and from it stepped
the eminent physician Dr. Davis, a. man
skilled above his fellows in the treatment
of nervous diseases.
The next day, during the doctor’s first.
office hour. I called upon him.
The learned man was very non-commit»
tal until I explained to him that I had at
one time been a student of medicine, and
was therefore entitled to know whatever
he could tell me that would be of benefit.
Thus reassured Dr. Davis proceeded to
explain the nature of his patieut’s strange
malady.
“It is a case of great interest." said he,
"to every man in the profession who knows
anything of it. There is not another case
on record that is the least like it. The dis-
ease of this gentleman, whom I will call
Mr. Andrews, is an affection of the nervous
system resulting from injuries received
years ago in a railway accident. It is of a
nature that has no parallel in medical his-
tory.
“Those nerves which telegraph to the
brain the sensations of touch, taste, smell,
hearing and sight are so deranged that the
transmission of sense is not, as in a healthy
person, instantaneous. As nearly as we
can calculate five seconds elapse beforeMr.
Andrews is conscious of any sensation, and
five seconds more before he can make any
response.
“The medical man is baffled in this case
for the reason that this affliction manifests
itself only in those movements of the body
that require conscious direction from the
brain. Actions which are termed involun-
tary, such as winking or gaping, are per-
formed the same as by a well person, and
that makes it a question whether it is the
nerves or certain portions of the brain
that are affected.
HE ENJOYS EXCELLENT HEALTH.
“Mr. Andrews is in perfect physical con
dition. He eats heartily, sleeps well, and
has an unimpaired digestion. Nor is he
fully alive to the terrible possibilities of
his position.
“Think of going through life ten seconds
ahead of yourself] There is scarcely any
calculating the things which might hap-
pen.”
Mr. Andrews is a rich man fortunately,
and therefore can keep an attendant con-
stantly with him, so that as yet he has ex-
perienced no serious injury. He never
knows when he is approaching an obstacle
or a danger. As in the case of his falling
down the steps when his belated sight de-
ceives him just so it is when a cab or a
car approaches him. He neither hears nor
sees them until five seconds after any one
else would. and it is another five seconds
before he can guide his movements by
means of thought and get away.
When he is walking the action becomes
mechanical. but he is constantly ahead of
where he seems to be, and in order to find
out exactly where he is he has to stop and
catch up with himself.
When he converses with those about him
it is a very peculiar fact that when a ques-
tion is put to him it is ten seconds before
he responds. Now this might be very em-
barrassing.
Suppose. on the other hand, a man were
to take from him his watch; before he
would have the power of preventing him
or before he could give any alarm the thief
might be far and away, indeed he might be
away before the man could know that he
had been robbed. A friend salutes him on
the street, but he doesuot see the saluta-
tion until it is too late to respond, and of
course the friend thinks he has been
snubbed.
When Mr. Andrews first recovered from
his accident he used to attend the theatre.
His taste was for comic opera and melo-
drama. But he does not go any more. The
peculiar manifestations of his > nalndy
caused much embarrassment to his friends
Who accompanied him. Appreciation of
jokes and ludicrous situations came to him
just ten second after everybody else. His
hearty laugh would not be noticed in a
‘general chorus. But his explosive ha have
when the audience was quiet were start-
ling—New York Press.
The Pride of Matrimony.
» [In his recently published “Trials of a
Country Parson” Dr. J essup tells some
amusing anecdotes picked up in Arcady.
'As thus: It is very shocking to a sensitive
person to hear the way in which the old
people speak of their dead wives or bus.
Fbands exactly-as if they’d been horses or
”dogs. They tie always proud of having
been married more than once. ”You didn’t
,think, miss, as I’d had five wives, now,
flid you? Ah, I have, though—~1castways
I buried five on ’em in the churchyard,
that I did—and tree on ’em bewtiesl”
, On another occasion I playfully suggest-
ied: “Don’t you mix up your husbands
,‘now and then, Mrs. Page, when you talk
about them?” “\Vell, to tell you the
truth, sir, I really dul But my third hus-
band, he was a maul I don’t mix him up.

NORWALK GAZETTE WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 5 1890.. '
BRUIN’S REVENGE.
now I Tame. Unoflendlng Bear Got Even
with Two Pugnacious Dudes.
A dozenyears ago a garden was located
in the eastern, end of that long and narrow
southern watering place, Hot Springs,
Ark. ..'As all visitors to that little city
among the delectable Ozark mountains at
the time indicated will remember, this
garden contained a bear, which served as
the principal attraction to draw a crowd.
One hot day in July, after bruin had
“rasseled” down Black Dan, a burly Afri-
can employed for the purpose, and had
robbed a beehive, the rightful proprietors
of which lacked the spirit to defend their
rather limited stock of sweets, an amusing
incident occurred.
“It’s a swindle, a hippodromel” growled
a youthful Hebrew, conspicuous for his
white duck suit and shiny silk hat. “I’ll
bet that those lazy old drones will call
around after their share of the rake off.”
Then he and a friend followed Bruin as he
was led away to an open space among the
pine trees and fastened to a. stake bya
chain something like thirty feet in length.
Left to himself the animal began travel-
ing round and round in the largest circle
his tether permitted.
“The stupid brute!” growled the white
suited Israelite as he poked the animal
with his silk umbrella.
The bear recededa little and then con—
tiuued his circular tramp, swinging his
head slowly. Each time he approached the
twain the one with the umbrella struck
him, and the two laughed in unison. Soon
various onlookers observed that Bruin was
dragging a good deal of slack chain behind
him, and that his annoyers were standing
upon his beaten track. Suddenly, with a
quickness hardly to be expected from an
animal of his ungainly motions, the 'bear
rose to a standing posture, and seized his
tormentor in his enormous arms. The
next instant they were rolling over and over
across the circular plot of ground. Soon
Bruin released his victim and ambled to
the stake in the center of his domain, be-
side which he sat in indisputable enjoy-
ment of the scene.
The tramping ground of a bear is not
the most cleanly place imaginable, and
though the man was not hurt physi—
cally his White clothing and fine feelings
had suffered sad injuries. He left that
night for his home—Chicago Special Press
Bureau.
A Snow Vinita Swallow.
Ornithologists in Paris are much inter-
ested in the discovery of a rare bird in the
shape of a snow white swallow. This
novel specimen of the feathered tribe came
to life lately in a nest which was built by
the parent under the caves of a glass roof
covering a court in the extensive manufac—
tory of a tradesman residing in the district
of Grenelle. The white bird was born
with two black specimens, one of which
flew away as soon as it was fledged, where-
upon the tradesmen, in order to keep the
other two, transformed the glass roofed
court into a temporary aviar y.
Photographs have been taken of the snow
white swallow, and will be sent to the lead-
ing naturalists of the city, one of whom
went to Grenelle in order to study the feath—
ered curiosity. This gentleman was, how—
ever, too late to see the bird alive. It per-
ished probably because too much care was
taken of it, or through fright at the num—
bers of people who came to stare at it as a
natural curiosity. The dead bird will now
be stuffed and sent to the museum at the
Botanical Gardens, where there is already
a white magpie, which still lives and hops
about among its companions, from which
it only differs in colon—Paris Letter.
The English Dame’s School.
The only school in which I can remember
being taught to bow upon entering or leav-
ing was a. village dame’s school kept by one
Pleasant Allen. The curriculum there was
of the simplest kind. It consisted of the
Church Catechism, the alphabet and easy
spelling, “pot books” (on a slate) and “un-
pickiug.” This last—the unraveling of
worsted stuffs afterward used by the dame
in the making of patchwork cushions—by
the sale of which slfe eked out her living—
occupied most of our time. TVhile we boys
“unpicked” the bigger girls would sew the
patchwork covers. If we learned little
else, however, we were at least taught de-
portment, and I believe my “first first-love”
was excited by the .icautiful courtesies of
little Annie Allen, a granddaughter of the
dame. Such courtesies are rarely seen
nowadays, but I have seen them occasion-
ally within the last few years—Notes and
Queries.
A Veteran Mule.
At Ccntreville, in Dauphin county, is a
veteran mule that deserves to be placed on
the government pension list. He is 47 years
old, but notwithstanding his age shows a
‘ great deal of endurance when driven by
his owner, B. F. Balsbacb. This ancient
mule was in the service of the United
States during the Mexican war. When the
rebellion broke out he again entered the
service of Uncle Sam, but before the war
was over he was captured by the Confed-
erates and made to do duty for them. This
is why the letters “C. S. A.” as well as “U.
S.” are yet plainly visible where they
were branded on him more than a quarter
of a century ago—“Test Chester News.
“’hat Becomes of the 01d Ties.
You see those men putting in new rail-
road ties? I am sometimes asked what
becomes of the old ones. A long time ago
the company had them saved up and they
were burned. But that is not done now.
As a rule these old ties are stacked up in
the section where they are removed and
used for posts. You know we are fencing a
great deal nowadays. These ties make ex-
cellent posts. This use is a great saving
to a railroad company—Interview in Chi—
cago Tribune.
Great Success Due to Diet.
\Vho were the great victors of the Eight
centh century? Voltaire, who lived on
coffee, and had too weak a. stomach to bear
much food; Washington, who was spare
and abstemious, and at the revolution
the people of Paris, who were starvelings.
Stanley greatly explains his success when
he says that all he wants is a crust of
bread, a mouthful of meat when he can
get it and a cup of tea—Mrs. Crawford in

In the»
, A Queer Fad for a Man.
- It is strange and indeed inexplicable how
some very stern, plain and unpretentious
men “cotton” to silk underwear. It is
generally supposed that women only love
pretty things simpleec‘ause they are pret-
ty, but now and then one comes across a
man who seems to have an innate love for
all that is dainty and beautiful. I know a
man of 40 who belongs to no clubs, who is
quite indifferent to society, for whom
neither wine, women nor song have any
attractions, who has neither sister nor
cousin nor even a sweetheart, who yet
spends more than $2,000a year on his under-
wear. He has nightgowns of silk embroid~
ered all over the chest with dainty little
flowers. He has others of finest cambric,
on which the lace ruffles at the wrists and
- neck alone cost a small fortune, and he has
others still fastened all the way down the
front with studs of great value.
One, for instance, is a white China silk
with coral colored dots all over it. It draws
up around the neck with a coral colored
silken cord, which can be adjusted loosely
or tightly at will, and is fastened all the
way down the front with twenty-four little
studs of real coral. An unfeeling brute of
a man who once beheld this “confection”
advised the wearer to draw the cord tight- 3
1y enough to choke‘ himself to death, and
thus rid the world of a ninny who could
wear such a garment. And yet the wearer
is a grave, studious, reserved man, fond of
books, and not a bit of a dude or a dandy.
—-New York Press.
How It “'as, Founded.
Mme. Carnot, the wife of the president
of the French republic, frequently visits a
day nursery for poor children in the Rue
Bacon loaded with toys and fresh fruits.
The story of the establishment of this
charitable institution is full of interest and
pathos.
Many years ago an only child, a daugh-
ter, was born to a noble but poor couple,
the count and countess of Laurenceau.
The girl was beautiful and attractive and
became the pet of a large circle of uncles,
aunts and cousins, who all fell into the
habit of giving her birthday gifts of money,
which was laid away to bear interest until
she should be grown and require a. dot.
The young girl died while still a child,
and her mother took this money, and with
it founded this asylum for the homeless
:babies of Paris in memory of her lost dar-
ling. Other mothers, left childless, have
given aid to this charity with the money
which they had intended to give to memo-
rial windows and costly gravestones.
The Little Bethlehem, as it is called,
thus is dedicated not only to the help of
the innocent little living children who find
a refuse in it, but to the memory of oti-crs
whose fate in life was happier, but who
were perhaps not more dearly loved.—
Youth’s Companion.
Origin of the Artesiau “loll.
The sedimentary rocks in their great
thickness inclose a succession of water
sheets or water levels occupying distinct
stages, and extending with uniform char—
acter under whole countries, like the strata
to which they are subordinated. It is
proper to remark here that by the term
water sheet is not meant a. real bed of wa-
ter lodged in a cavity between solid masses
that serve as walls to it, but water filling
the minute interstices or the cracks of a
rock. Continuous and regular in sand
these sheets are usually discontinuous and
irregular in limestones and sandstones, in
which the water only occupies more or less
spacious fissures.
W'hen natural issues are wanting human
industry is able, by boring, to make open-
ings down to the subterranean waters,
which it causes to jet up to the surface,
and sometimes to a considerable height
above. The thought of undertaking such
works is avcry ancient one. The Egyp-
tians had recourse to them forty centuries
ago, and they were exccu ted in France in
1126 at Artois, whence the name of arte-
sian wells has been given to them.—-Philn-
delphia Record.
Golden Rod and Influenza.
A Maine man says the golden rod is re
sponsible for many cases of influenza. He
speaks from experience. His little daugh-
ter gathered a large bunch and put it in a
vase in the parlor. Two sleeping apart-
ments are on the same floor, and the doors
are frequently left open at night. Two
days after the flowers had been carried into
the home several members of the family
began to sneeze, complain of sore throat
and feel greatly depressed, but not for sev-
eral days did they find out the cause of
their illness. It is said that the flowers
give off an imperceptible powder like sub-
stance, which is taken into the lungs by
the sleeper, causing an irritation. It also
irritates the throat, produces violent sneez-
ing. makes the limbs feel as though bur-
dened by some heavy weight, and depress-
es a person to such an extent that he is
inclined to suicide.—Lewiston Journal.
Regimental Field Telegraph.
An ingenious field telegraph has been in-
vented by an English judge. The coils of
double insulated wire, giving a complete
metallic circuit, wound on bobbins, are
supported on the backbones of two bicy-
cles. Six poles, to enable the troops to
carry the wires over roads, are support—
ed over the handles of the bicycles,
which are trundled one in front of the
other. When the wire is to be laid the
bobbins are taken off and carried on the
back and wound off, a special rapid coup—
ling being provided in case of necessity.
When on the road the poles can be thrown
off and the bicycles mounted, so that the
instruments and the conducting wires can
be carried off and saved from capture.—
New York Telegram.
An Ideal Employment.
“Supposing one had to work,” said the
idler, “what would be the ideal employ-
ment to choose?”
“Horticulture,” answered the professor
promptly. “In the first place, it is a health-
ful calling, but that is the least of its ad—
vantages. It affords abundant opportunity
for meditation, and unlike most work
which has this merit it is not tedious or
ncchanical. It is full of valuable sugges—
tions for thought. Best of all, it admits,
as does no other occupation, of unalloyed
satisfaction in the results of labor. No
industry, art or profession produces any-
thing which so nearly justifies pride as the
work of even the mediocre gardener.”—
