Surely you remem- | berhim. ‘Yes. 1} said. ‘Il remember dear little Jim, whe died last year, quite well.’ ‘Don’t you | see him there! fhere he 1s," said ithe man, pointing to the ant space on which his eyes were fixed, and when I did not answer he peated almost fretfully, ‘Don't you see him Standing there?’ I answered him that I could not see him, though I felt perfectly convinced that something was visible to the sick man which I could not perceive. When I gave him this answer he seemed quite amazed, and turned around to look at me with a glare almost of in- dignation. As his eyes met imine I saw that a film ecemed to pass over them ; ‘the light of in- teliigence passed away ; he gave a gentle sigh and expired. He did not live tive moments from the time he first said, ‘There is Jim,’ although there had been no signs of approaching death previous to that moment.” Another case is that of a refined and highly educated boy of 14, who died of decline, being perteetls intelligent and desiring the ui wn | to which he believed he was hastening. Death came to him at sunset, suddenly, as he turned away from contemplation of the scene | without to gaze at the wall, with wide opened eyes and a look of perfect ecstacy. His mother asked if what he saw was some wonderful sight beyond the confines of this world to give hera token by pressing her hand, as he was speech- | less, and he at once took her handand pressed | it meaningly. A third case was that of the brother of ‘a correspondent, an elderly man, dying of an incurable and painful disease, which, however, did not obscure his taculties. Upon him death came unexpectedly. It had been un- | certain for some hours whether he was alive or dead. but the eager. rapt gaze of wonder and Joy came just as with one long breath the spirit departed. Still another case was that of “a man ot high intellectual distinction, well known in the world of letters,” who, when dying peace- fully, as became the close of a profoundly re! mus life, was observed by his dang to look up, as if at some spect invisible to around, with an expression of solemn sur- | ise and awe characteristic of his habitual of mind, the end coming before the look had had time to falter or change. In yet another case so bright a light seemed suddenly to shine from the face of a dying man that “the ¢lergyman and another friend who were with him actually turned simultaneously to the win- dow to seek for the cause: ady, @X- hibiting the same aspect of joyful surprise, spoke of seeing. oue after another, three of her brothers, who had long been dead, then appar. ently recognizing last of alla fourth brothe who was believed by the bystanders to be still | living in India. couy his name with those of his ‘ited such awe and Se of the persons pre: room. In due co' horror in the mind ot one that she rushed from the of time letters were received announcing the death of the brother in India, which had oc- some time before his dying sister seemed to recognize him.” nt HARDENED SINN Consul Mason’s Course. From the Chicazo Inter-Ocean. Capt. Frank H. Mason, our consul at Basle, Switzerland, is the first of American consuls to take any active steps in preventing the exporta- tion of criminals to the United Si Through | his agency a larze number of hardened sinners tiexeted tor this country have been set to work | in their own country instead of being sent over here to add their help to our growing calendar of crimes. Switzerland doesn’t mean to be saucy in sending her sinners to us. She regards the United States as a sort of universal washing-ma- ehine,a purifier for all nations.and neglects tocon- sider the fact that we are a nation with a national | Ife to foster and to keep free from external sources ot corruption whenever we know it. Captain Mason reaiized the fact that senti- mentalizing and dillydallying wouldn't do in this matter, and he went actively to work with the Swiss government and succeeded in con- yineing them that his country can’t and won't Teceive their galley outcasts. Captain Mason's recent consular report in regard to American trade in Switzerland is practical and to the it. He speaks of the uselessness of sending lish advertisemé@nts ai speak only French or Switzerland is rman and South Switzer- land is French. A certain Wisconsin rail- — company sent a man to Europe cap- of telling people in thelr own lan- guage of the resources of that state. He ad- Yertised Wisconsin in their own language, and im consequence that state received last year forty-one thousand of the very best immigrants who landed in this country, and her proportion of this year’s contingent will be still greater. The consul recommends the plan of combina- tion of several American manufacturers or ex- porters of different classes of mer ise of uses to establish depots or the principal cities to exhi supply their wares. American improvements in | small articies of hardware and food products of | various sorts are most in demand. In the na- ture of the case, the extension of American trade in an old and conservative country like Switzerland must be in opposition to strong local competition and more or less prejudice, but | there is no reasou why persistent aud intelligent efforts even in this weil-worn flela should not prove successful and profitable. = ———. Balston’s Summer Home, The Ralston house, at Belmont, now in the Posession of Senator Sharon, is that perhaps having the greatest interest of all. The re- markable man who built it was the traditional California type in its most astonishing deyelop- ment. Starting from an humble origin, he be- came a forwarder of every brilliant scheme of improvement, public and private. and conduct- ed a hundred projects to success which in other hands would have been sheer folly. He arrived thus at an unbounded confidence in his star. Entangled finally while cashier of the bank of California, he handed in his resignation to the directors one day. and went down to the public baths near the Votrero. A stronz, athletic man, fu the prime of life, he swam out half a mile into the bay—for retreshment in his troubles, as some say, but asthe general opinion is, with the deliberate purpose of suicide—and was never again seen alive. The house that was his is notehed into a hill-side, in a rolling country, much pleasanter than the plain at Menlo Park. A app tal i behing !t is dammed at a certain level to furnish the water supply. There are gas-works, a bowling-alley, and an elaborate Turkish bath among the outbuildings, and a gtange-like barn of solid stone, ivy-grown now, which cost €30,000. As tothe immense resi- ence itself, that is of wood, white, in the usual 4ashion.

From the New York San, “What is Chief Engineer Roebling’s dis- ease?” was asked of an engineer of the East River bridge. “A very rare one,” he replied. “It 1s the caisson disease, the result of enduring a high atmospheric pressure. You know that these | two great granite plers rest to-day on wooden | boxes, turned bottom upward, called cals- | sons. These were constructed with the same | horizontal dimensions as the towers. For in- | stance, that on the New York side was 102 | by 172 feet, and was nine feet high. The roof of the caisson or the bottom of the box. was made twenty-two feet thick, of solid tim- ber, bolted together. The caisson was built on ways, launched like a ship, and when towed to | | the point where the pier was to be located | Ses of grani and by this blocks were laid upon the neans it was sunk until it ested onthe bed of the river. Then air was forced into the chamber of the caisson by en- | and the river bed left bare. This pressure was | maintained day and night, and workmen were employed digging out the’ earth from beneath the caisson, so that it should graduatly and evenly descend. As the caisson settled the ma- sonry on it was built up, so that the top of the stone work was always above water. A good foundation was not reached on the New York side until we reached a depth of seventy-elght feet. Of course workmen had to work in this compressed air, and the chlef en- gineer was with them, as he was anxious that no mistake should be made at the foundation of the piers. The pressure of air required to keep the water out of the caisson Increased in exact proportion to the depth. When the digging was | becun, the caisson being covered by forty feet of water, the pressure was about eighteen pounds to the square Inch, but it reached thirty-six before the close.” Did this pressure affect the health of others 2” “Very seriously. Some are to-day hopeless invalids like the chlef engineer. A number died, and only the most robust fully recovered. In Here is a medical definition of the disease: It is an ail- ment depending upon increased atmospheric pressure, but always developed after the pres- Sure fs removed. It is characterized by extreme | pain in one or more of the extremities, and Sometimes in the trunks, which may or may not be associated with ‘eplgastric pain and vomiting. In some cases the pain is accompanied by paralys®& more- or less compiete, which may be general or local, but is most frequently contined to the | lower half of the body. Cerebral symptoms, such as headache and vertigo, are sometimes present. In fatal cases the symptoms are con- nected with congestion of the brain and spinal cord, often resulting in serious sanguineous ef- fusion and congestion of most of the abdominal viscera. The chlef engineer has the disease in an acute form, accompanied oy intense neural gic pains, which ‘seem as though the flesh were being torn from the bones. ‘The pain is remit- tent and paroxysmal, especially it he attempts to move. In the last’ year or two he has been able to move at times with less pain, but he has suffered trom a mild paralysis which has kept hima prisoner at home. You know he never saw the towers and cables until he caught sizht of them from a soft bed on the deck of the canal boat upon which he was towed on the way from his home In New Jersey when he changed his residence to Brooklyn. With him the cerebral symptoms have not been so acute, and fortunately his brain has been clear, although he has had headache and dizzi- ness. He knows everything that goes on about the bridge, and he takes a deep interest in it. The disease has wrecked his physical life, and many aman would have prayed for death, but his keen intellect has found a stimulant in the expectation ofhaving his name linked with the greatest suspension bridze in the world. and but for this I believe he would care very little for this world.” BAILROADING MOUNTAINS. TH 10,725 Feet Above the Sea. Correspondence of the New York Tribune. Tn scenery the line fi Pueblo to Salt Lake City will present some wonderful attractions. From Pueblo you cross the mesa to Canyon c with its penitentiary and hot springs, from which is the unfortunate railroad branch to the mining towns of er Cliff and Rosita. Three times has this branch suffered from washouts, necessitating two repairs at a cost of $250,000 and $160,000 respectively, but after the third washout, which occurred only a fort- night since, the railway company decided to give up the strugzle, and the brancl will prob- ably be abandoned. From Canyon City in an open observation car you pass through the ma- Jestic Royal Gorge, or Grand Canyon ot the Ar- kansas, with its awful rock mountains leaning over you on either side. Then from Sallda you cross the Marshal Pass, and-this is a journey not to be easily forgotten. The track twists back- ward and forward along the flanks of the moun- tains with a grade of 210 feet in the mile. The train climbs up one side of a valley, circles around its head in a horseshoe curve, while from the rear car you salute the conductor in the baggage car, and climbs on again up the other side of the valley in a reverse direc- tion. <A four per cent grade, that is a vertical rise of four feet in every hundred feet, means very rapld climbing fora railway train, and this you realize as you look down the steep sides of a gorge and see just below three lines of track at different altitudes over which the train has just yoeet When the two panting engines have slowly dragged the train to the heavily timbered, tunnel-like snow-sheds at fhe summit of tne pass you are 10.725 feet above the sea, not very far from twice the height of Mount Washington, and only a little way above you see the end of ‘the timber line clearly de- fined on the barren side of Mount Ouray. Then the second engine is sent ahead as a pilot, and the train, which is equipped with automatic brakes, starts down with just enough steam on to keep the brakes from off the wheels. It is au easy mat- ter to walk down to the water tank a mile be- low and reach it fifteen minutes betore the train, where you can meditate on the fact that you have just traveled over oneof the highest points in the world reached by a railway. In the de- scent, the tortuous course of the track and the slow movement give an opportunity for glorious views of pine-clad canyons, stretching down di- rectly beneath your windows, of barren gorges, frowning mountain peaks, and as you descend still lower there are glimpses of smiling valleys framed between the ranges of the hills. Then comes a stretch of plain and Gannison, and then the extension which I described. SE eS Stewarts Hones Never He- covered. Correspondence of the Cincinnati Enquirer. Talking to a Yew York detective officer to- day, I asked him what had become of the body of A. T. Stewart. “The best information I possess,” said Ne, “4s that it has not only never been recovered by the family and executors, but that it is not now in posession of the original thieves.” “Well, who got it trom them?” said I. “It is the understanding at police headquar- ters,” sald he, “that a second band of thieves, thinking the body was a good thing, stole it from the first. Probably some of the persons privy to the robbery took the body away from those who had been at the pains to aig it up and spirit it off.” “Well, how was Mrs. Stewart appeased?” “Why.” said the officer. “I suppose that she thinks that the bones have been recovered. She either thinks they have been recovered, or does not inquire concerning them. The fact is,” A TF. said my friend, “that after the robbery of that grave, it became a Kee ee among numerous wealthy persons in New York what todo to parent a spoliation of other tombs of the same class. You know that immediately after the robbery in St. Mark’s churchyard the tomb of the Vanderbilts at Staten Island, was watched, and so were several oe tt hitees of Coreen) persons. They all w of paying sj watchmen, foto it looked as ifthey might have to watch the tomb fora period of years, and every rich man that died would juire two live ones to look after his bones—a tl not very palatable to heirs. C notice was sent to Ji not to pay any reward bones whether Mrs. want not. Theunderstanding isthat Judge Hilton and other gentlemen pacified Mrs, Stewart in some way. You know the coffin of Stewart was not carried off by the took the Trouble Manifesting Itself Among ‘These “Wild Cat” Associations, From the Memphis Appeal. A friend of the Appeal yesterday related to us the predicament of a young triend of his who had four policies in as many schemes. Said he: “Yesterday he received assessment nottfica- tions amounting to $33, and to-day he has ad- ditional notifications amounting to $25— amounting to $58 in two days. Now I happen to know that my friend's monthly salary does not amount to half that much money, and if he suceceds in ‘hunting up’ enough to pay those assessments he will never be gble to meet what might come to-mor- row and the days following. He has already exhausted all his resources in raising enough to meet demand think he has gone by the board, and what he has been paying in will have to be forfeited.” This is a true story, and is but the beginning of the game of ‘freeze-out”? hat is going to be played upon the member- hip of nine-tenths of these so-called marital, or whatever else name they choose to up. Bear in mind, the name is always selected with the view to beguile the unweary. We were notified that a suit would take place | before one of our magistrates yesterday against a marriage association. We were on hand, but the magistrate knew nothing of It. Of course itwas suggested that a comprimise had been effected, but we wanted the gist of that com- promise. The informants we traced up as far as the fourth story, resulting in a story about as follows: “A young man had been employed byan oMficer of an association—the name is withheld, because the scheme did not work,and the boldness of the adventure will break out at no distant day in probably a more disgraceful transaction—to go down to some point in Mis- sissippi_ and induce a young lady friend of his, upon whom a number of policies had been taken, and whose parents had protested against her marriage with her present suitor, to run away and marry him anyhow. He went as di- rected, but failed in accomplishing the desired result, but earned his stipend all the same. The result was the assoviation failed of the necessity of issuing assessments upon its membership to pay these premiums— fifteen or twenty per cent of which would have gone to the officers of the" association; consequently the officers refused to pay the hireling his wages and he threatened suit. The inference drawn from the fact that the suit did not come oif is that the assoctation feared the developments that would come out at the trial.” We heard a rumor that twoor three of the schemes had “suspended,” but could not trace it to any authentic source. It was probably the augmentation of the incident of a well-known bookkeeper who had policies amounting to sev- eral thousand dollars, which fell due a day or two azo. Up to yesterday afternoon he had succeeded in finding the officers of but two of the institutior in each of which his dues amounted to $5,000. One of these proposed a compromise by paying him $101 and the other $104 Hedid not settle on that basis, and we will likely be able to give an interesting narra- tive of what he knows about marriage associa- tions in a few day ——— THE MARCH OF EMPIRE. ‘The Wonders of Railway Progress and Industry—The Rapid Increase of Pop- ulation—Moving Villages Following the Workmen. From Gen. Brisbin's Travels in Montana. Thavye just returned from a visit to the end ot the Northern Pacific railroad track and the head of the Yellowstone valley. What an enormous valley this is—six hundred and twenty miles long! It would reach nearly, in a straight line, from New York to Chicago. The end of the North Paciile track is at Young’s Point, on | the Yellowstone river, or, rather, was there a few days ago. The road is progressing at the rate of one-and-a-half to two miles per day, and this winter will reach Benson’ Ly Bo: The track wiley at after having traversed it fora di miles. It strikes the Yellowston: Tuns upto Miles City, 80 miles; th syth, Al thence to Billings, 138 miles, where it crosses over from the south to the north Kk of the Yellowstone. From Billings it runs to Countryman’s Crosses, again to the north side, and thence to Bensc Here it turns snarp west, goes up Trail creek to Bridger mountain andthroush a tunnel 2.000 feet iong, and emerges in the head of the Gallatin yalley, near Boze- man, from which place it traverses the Gallatin valley to Helena. I saw the tracklayers at work on the Northern Pacific road. Little cars loaded with iron rails were dragzed forward by mules hitched to ropes made fast to the sides of the cars, and as fast a: the iron reached the end of the iaid rails new iron was seized and rushed forward. So accu- rately could the handlers throw a rail that it laid where it fell and was instantly spiked down inits place. If you stopped toconverse for a few min- utes the tracklayers would get several rodsahcad. I did not time them, but about a minute was sufficient to place a rail. In advance of the track layers were hundreds of men sizing up the roadbed, building culverts and putting in bridges. Behind the track men came scores of boarding houses on wheels, long lines of cars loaded with railsand great engines pushing them along westward over the new laid track. It was @ sight well worth seeing, and one calcu- lated to fill the breast of the Western man with hope for the future of his country. DISTINGUISHED VISITORS. I met many distinguished men and capitalists out looking at the country and seeking pleas- ure.

Last November I bought two lots in Miles City, for $250 each, and in April sold them for 2537 each. Meantime I had two per cent in- terest per month on my money from the rent of @ little building on the lots. During the past year I have loaned large sums of money not only for myself but eastern friends, and so far we have not lost a cent. The rates of interest are very high, one, one and a half and two per cent a month being Renalty obtained for loans of $500, $1,000 and $2,000. For sums under $500 two and two and a-half per cent a month are charged. The loans are met with great punctuality when due, and I would rather loan money for safety in Montana than New York.
