Since then I havobcon unable to bo about

my limbs were pufTod up nnd fillot' with

that nothing could euro mo. I resolved to

"I Imvo no aloop for thirty-six hours ,
That's wlmt I came to too you nbotit.
Whnt Bhall I Uko-opium ? "
"No ; not at all. You don'tvran't
drugs of any kind. Take n bath firat.
Hold on. Where are you going i Don't
got mad about it. 1 did not mean the
remark in nn individual eonso at all.
The bath is not meant for purposes of
cleanliness but merely to equalize thodia-
tribution of blood in the various parts of
the body , particularly to draw it from
the vessel in the head. Giyo your body
a brisk application of friction nfter the
bath by moans of a course towel or
llcah brush , nnd continue for ton or fif
teen minutes. Then , perhaps , you had
boat swallow n few drops of spirits of
camphor in n wino-glaBt of water , and
my word for it you will sloop if your
room is dark and quiet. Very often the
application of a damp cloth to the base of
the brain is all that is required to atop a
man's brain from working and to send
him to sloop. I y all rncana avoid opiates
until every otbor moans of inducing uloop
has boon fruitlessly triod.
"Tho Idea ia altogether too common
that when n man wants to go to sloop all
ho needs to do is to swallow a dose of
opium or bolladpna , or inject a little
morphine into his veins. I toll you every
drugthatinfluccs artificial sloop is a poison
which leaves behind effects from which
the user Bomctimo never rocovors. "
The reporter know the orator to bo
thoroughly posted on the subject In hand ,
and meekly made a note of tlio foregoing
ofluct.
"See hero ; this is ono of my experi
ments in the study of the phenomena of
sloop , " continued the talker ono of the
five hundred medical students in Cincin-
cinnati , who is making a specialty of this
subject producing from n closet in the
rear of the room nn ordinary water buck-
ot. Pushing back his coat sleeve nnd
cuffs , ho plunged his hand into the water
and brought out a dripping tortoise shell
kitten , with a five pound rod-iron at-
lachcdjto a strap about Its nock.
"This kitten has boon under watrr for
seven hours , but 1 will bet you a nicklo
to a copper that ho is not dead. "
The little animal was perfectly limp
and motionless. The most careful exam
ination failed to show any action of the
heart , any vital heat or other evidence of
lifo. Contrary to what night have boon
expected , however , its abdomen was not
distontod with the usual volume of water
swallowed by drowning animals ; but this
fact was explained by the student with
drawing cotton plugs from its oars and
nostrils and disengaging a linen bandage
from about its head , which has boon so
placed as to prevent the opening of the
animal's mouth.
"If it has boon under water seven
hours that kitten is certainly dead. "
"Not at nil. In the course of time
I will guarantee to take you and to down
you under the same conditions , and ton
hours after you have stopped breathing I
will pump wind into you and start your
lungs again , and a cat has eight more
lives than you havo. "
Novnr mind. I will take your word
forit. "
"That feat would bo nothing. Lot mo
tell you what I saw in India about three
years ago and there are a dozen boys
about the college now who have soon
things that will seem oven more incrndi-
Mp to you I saw n Hindoo buried nlivo ,
His grave wna watched day and night ,
part of the time by myself , and at the
end of BIX weeks ho was dug up nnd
brought back to lifo by some of his friends
Ho wont into the grave voluntarily , you
understand , having prepared himself for
it before hand , and slept there for six
weeks , much ns a boar sloops through
the winter. Wo gave him GO rupees
, hat is , $30 for nis trouble , and con-
idorod himself well paid. "
As Allan Ingalls remarked to ono of
li.s interviewers , n short time nftor hu
wns arrested for burking the Taylor fam
ily , "Thoso medical students are n powor-
'ul queer lot o' men. "
'From that date I 'mvo ' given thia
study particular attention ; bill this ex
periment with the kitten is the only
ploasurn I have got out of it as yot. J
am always on tlio eve of a diccovory , but
1 never ( juito strike it. " The body of the
kitten was placed on the fonder , before
the open lire burning in the grate , and
for Bovorul minutes the student rubbed it
with a soft Turkish towel. With a Ublo.
knife ho pried open the tightly clenched
jaws and poured a spoonful of brandy
into ita mouth , confident that some of the
liquor would find its way down the foljnc
throat. After ton minutes' manipulation
there were no slgna of lifo , beyond an in
creasing degree of heat , which was , ol
course , duo to tlio lira.
Iho rubbings were continued , and the
throat was carefully stroked for the pur
nose of assisting the brandy in ( mump
its level , Presently the muscles of the
lower jaw began to twitch , and the stu
dent loft his work long enough to cut i
pigeon-wing.
"What did I toll you ? " said ho. "This
cat was not drowned ; lifo was only
suspondodifor seven hours , and in thirty
minutes more it will bo crying for a
saucer of milk. "
Even while ho was speaking , ono ol
the rigid limbs began to curl up in n
natural manner , and the pupils in both
wide-open eyes gradually contracted. In
thirty minutes , as had boon promised ,
the drowned kitten was seated composed
ly before the fire , making its toilet.
"Thoro will bo some astonishing discoveries <
covorios made in the subject of suspend
ed animation before many years , and J
wonder that thai whole medical fratornl
ty are not working on it. Every boj
knows that llios which have boon Heating
in a basin of water apparently dead foi
hours will coma to lifo when placed ii :
the BUD , and their resuscitation is just a !
wonderful as would bo the bringini
back to lifo of a human being. Fisl
taken from the water and at once exposed
od to extreme cold will grow stilf ant
brittle ns dry clay. They may bo kep
out of their nutivo element in this condi
lion for it week , and when ropluccd it
tlio water thuir faculties will return it
thorn ,
"Dears curl up in their dons at Iho beginning
ginning of winter , and remain , to all in
tents and purpose * , dead until the fol
lowing spring opens. In the course ji ,
( Into man will bo nblo to do this. "
"Hut what will bo the advantages' '
Who wonts to sloop halfhia lifo ftwajf
"Tho thing will have n great many ad
vantages. Suprpso you have nu income o :
$100 a quarter- "
"That is about the size of it , sun
enough. "
"I say , auppoBo you have an income oi
$100 a quarter ; you draw it and bcfon
lin first month is in your money la gone ,
Mid no moro will como for two months.
n the meantime you must live , but if
fou nro able to sloop any dosircd length
jf time your living need cost you nothing.
You curl yourself up in nn atticand there
you are until the next day of payment
draws near , "
The Btudont gracefully parted his cca * .
tails and took his plnco on the hearth-
tig bcaido the cat.
"That is nil gammon. IIow nm I , for
nslanco , to go to sleep for two months
it n stretch when I can't by anypossibili-
; y manage to keep my oycs closed for
wo hours ? "
"Do as I told you at the beginning of
jur talk nnd you will sleep. Hut I don't
want you to take my word for the fact that
men have boon in hibernation for ns
much as six weeks nt n timo. Sir Olnudo
Wndo , nn attacho of the British govern
ment in India , witnessed the burial allvo
of n man who won taken out of his grave
After forty dayn and restored to consci
ousness. I can show you his own testi
mony. "
Ho produced from the same cupboard
Jiat had sheltered Iho bucket in which
was the drowned kitten , a copy of Scrib-
nor's Monthly for December , 1880 , and
pointed to n paragraph in page 250 , It
road :
_ "I was present at the court of Rtinjit
Singh , at Lahore , when a fakir waa bur
ied alive for six wooku , nnd , though I
arrived a few hours after ho was interred ,
I had the testimony of Kunjit Singh ana
others , the moat credible witnesses nt his
court , to the truth of tlio fakir having
boon buried before thorn ; nnd for haying
boon present myself when ho was disin
terred and restored to n state of perfect
vitality , in n position so close to him as
.o render deception impossible , it is my
firm belief that there was no collusion in
producing the extraordinary fact that I
Iiavo related. "
"Thoro , you BOO , the voluntary hibor-
mtloii of human beings is already an ac
complished fact , and when the civilized
world becomes as higly educated in the
mysteries ns these heathen Hindoos have
boon for fifty years , perhaps you will bo-
"iovo it. "

A Bottle ii IK Ycni-B OUI.
I'Vom ' the Waahltifrton Mo. , Observer.
Mr. L. Croon , of Newport , called at
this oflico last Saturday morning and ex
hibited to us a four ounce bottle , the
existence of which is clearly traced back
248 years. It can not properly bo called
n tquaro or round bottle , as the corners
and edges hardly approach either.
Evidently the process of blowing glass at
the time it was made was in its incipion-
oy. The bottom was doubtless intended
to bo Hat , but the corners and edges are
not equaroly and smoothly turned , and
in the contra of the bottle n daub of mol
ten glass seems to have .boon cut on to
stop up the hole that was loft by reason
of the edges failing to come together and
close in tlio bottom. The shoulders at
tlio top of the bottle ,
too , look as if they were intended to bo
blown square , but instead of this they
awkwardly doubled in toward the center.
The nock of tha bottle is short nnd
straight , without the usual rim nttho top ,
and at the bottom of the neck it spreads
out and is apparently molded into the
hole left nt the top of the bottle where
the glass laps over from the shoulders.
Up nnd down the body of tlio bottle in a
sort of twisting shape are largo but pretty
uniform ridges which appear to bo on the
outside , but upon fooling the bottle they
are discovered tJ bo but slightly indented
on the outside and must be either inside
or running through Uio interior of the
body of the glaes.
This bottle wns brought from Germany
in 1010 by John Baker ( Uiu Gorman
name would probably bo Hpolled Decker ) ,
who settled in Philadelphia. When ho
died the bottle full into the hands of his
son , Fred Baker , then into the hands of
Fred's non , Kurl , and then into the hunuu
of Karl's daughter , llachel , who married
Win. Ilimoy and settled in St. Luuis
county In 1880 , Win , Ilamey was an un
do of Mr. L. Groun who secured the
bottle from his uncle's wife. Mr. Green
has lived in this county Tor twenty-five
years , and still holds nut to certify to
what wo have hero written and show us
the "documents. "

WILD ENGLISH GAMBLERS.

Could Coolly Iioso $100,000

Although America , nnd moro partic
ularly the cities of Now York and Wash
ington , have furnished many noted gam
blers , the amounts that have been staked
md lost or won nt play on thin fiidp of the
\tlantic may bo said to bo small in com
parison with the tremendous ventures
node abroad. Now that gambling has
fallen into disrepute in England nnd in
Borne parts of the Continent , the wealth
ier classes and sporting men of title fight
rather shy of the grcon cloth. But the
private clubs of London and the tables of
Monaco and Baden-Baden still furnish
their quota of patrons who frequently
make ventures and take risks that are
astonishing , and upon which the success
or complete ruin of the player dbpcdnds.
The famous old London gambling Kent
Cocoa Trco Club , in St. James' street ,
had its origin in n Tory chocolate house
in Queen Anne's days , and assumed the
higher form of a club in 17-U ! . Members
of parliament nnd persons high in lifo
belonged to this club , which , it used to
bo said , exorcised a very important in
fluence on the course of politics. In those
days members of parliament were not
nlways nbovo tnking a bribe , nnd many
of the Cocoa Tree gentlemen were only
too easily induced to accept bank notes
for 200 or 300 each when the ministry
hard pushed , wcro obliged to resort to
such n device to obtain support ; nnd the
pcnco of Fontninoblcau is allrgol to have
cost the government in this wny 25-
000. Gambling also went on to n fearful
extent nt the Cocoa Treo. Horace Wnl-
polo relates , in lTTO , that n Mr. OBirno ,
an Irishman , won 100,000 from a young
Mr. llnrvoy.
"You can never pay mo , " said 0'
Birno.
" 1 can , " replied the young follow ;
'my estate will sell for the amount. "
"No , " said the Irishman , "I will take
10,000 , and wo will throw for the old
ninety. "
They did , nnc Harvey won. In most
of the fashionable clubs of the last centu
ry gaining wns carried on in the most
reckless manner. In the club book of
Almack's- there is this note :
"Mr. Flynno , havingjwon only 12,000
guineas during the lust two mouths ,
retired in disgust March 21 , 1772. "
To lese 20,000 in ono evening was
not unusual. Generally 10,000 in spe
cie lay on the table. A curious account
is given of the way theao dcsporato gam
blers used to equip themselves for the
sport. They took elF their embroidered
coats , put on frieze garments , protected
their lace rullles with pieces of leather ,
shaded their eyes with broad-brimmed
straw hats adorned with ilowors and rib-
bans , and were masks to "conceal their
emotional" That suicide WHS not an un-
frcquont result of such high play can
hardly bo wondered at. Lord Mountford ,
a member of White's , where the gamb
ling was fearful , got so terribly involved
that ho determined to ask for a govern
ment appointment , nnd failing that , to
take his own lifo. Ho did fail , and after
asking several persons what was the easi
est mode of dyiufj , invited some friends
to dinner Now gear's day _ , having supped
the evening before at White's , whore ho
played at whist until 1 o'clock in the
morning. A fellow-member drinking to
him a happy Now \ear , "ho clapped bis
hands strangely to his oyes. " In the
morning ho sent for a lawyer and three
witnesses , made his will with great delib
eration , and then asked the lawyer if it
would stand good though ho were to
shoot himself. The answer being yes ,
ho said :
"Pray stay while 1 stop into the next
room , " and then , retiring , shot himself
dead.
According to Walpolo , three brothers ,
members of White's , cou'tracted a gam
bling debt of 870,000 , while Lord Foloy's
two sons had to borrow money to such an
extent that the interest utmost amounted
to 18,000,000 a year. The same vivacious -
cious chronicler of the manner of his
times gives nn almost incredible account
of Fox's Iovo of pltty and dissipation , lu
the debate on the thirty-ninth article , on
on February 0 , 1773 , ho spoke very in
differently , which , Walpolo says , was not
surprising under the circumstances.
"Ho had sat up playint ; hazard nt
Almack'a from Tuesday evening , the -ith ,
till 5 in the nltornoon of the following
day. An hour before ho had won back
12,000 that ho had lost , but by dinner
time , which was at 5 o'clock , when play
ended , ho had lost 12,000. On the
Thursday ho spoke in the above debate ;
wont to dinner nftor 11 at night ; from
thence to Attack's , where ho won ( > , -
000 , and , between 3 and 4 in the after
noon , ho sot out for Newmarket , Bis
brother Stephen lost 11,000 two nights
nftor , and Charles 10,000 moro on the
llth ; no that , in three nights , the three
brothers , the oldest not 26 lost 32,000.
Captain Gronow relates that , about this
time , Lord Robert Spencer and General
Fitzpatrick were allowed to keep u faro
bank at Brookes' , and that the former
bagged , ns his sharp of the proceeds ,
100,000 ; after which ho never again
gambled. George Ilarloy Drummond ,
the banker , only played once in his
lifo , when ho lost 20,000 to Brummol ,
and was obliged to iotiro from the
linn. In the first hal1 of the Eighteenth
century , ladies of title kept gambling
houses.
An entry ii : the Journals of the House
of Lords , dated April 20 , 17-15 , shows
that Ladies Mornington and Cassius
claimed privilago of poeraco in resisting
certain peace otllcors in doing their duty
in "suppressing certain gaming houses
kept by the said ladies ; " but the claim
was not allowed. Betting was also in
dulged in at the clubs witlras much fran
tic zest ns play. Anything served ns
an excuse , and sometimes the occasions
of the bets were so shocking
that the men of the least
oconcy would Imo shruuic
from associating them with any form of
amusement , A. man dropped down nt
the door of White's and was carried into
the house ; Immeditoly the betting har-
p'e j were staking largo aume on the quus-
tion whether ho was dead or not : and
when it was proposed tr bleed him , these
who luvd taken odds that lifo wns extinct
protested against such a coarse , on the
( { round that it would affect the fairness
of the but. Bad ns this was , thorp was a
worse case still , for which Walpolo is
again the authority. H true though
ono would believe it an invention it is
sulllcient to leave n stnin of murder on
tlio very name of Whito's. A youth bet
1DOO that a man could hvo twelve
hours under water. Ho accordingly hSrod
some poor wrotch.probably . in a most des.
porate plight una sank him in n ship.
Both ship and man disappeared , and were
never heard of morJ. Walpolo adda that
the miscreants actually proposed to make
the experiment n second timo. It is n
singular fact that Lord Mountford , whoso
suicide wo have just related , bet Sir John
Bland that Bonu Nash would outlive Col-
ley Cibbor , and that both the personsthe
subjects of the bet , survived the bettors ,
and that Bland , ns well ns Mountford
died by his own act.
