These deaths included 19 suicides, 15 hom- icides, 8 infanticides, 104 deaths by accidents, 961 from disease and 72 still births. .The esti- mate for the support af the office for the fiscal — ending June 30, 1892, was also submitted. ie asks for an appropriation of 3,300, which includes the salary of the coroner, the care of the morgue and contingent expenser. THE ASSESSOR'S CLERKS CANNOT RECEIVE EXTRA COMPENSATION. In the appropriation bill for the present fiscal year thore is an item of €3,000 to enable the as- ¥essor to prepare a book showing arrears of taxes on real property. As clerks are required who have a knowledge of the business the assossor recently wrote a letter to the first controller asking opinion whether under that act the clerks of his oflice could be paid from said ap- propriation for work done by them outside of the regular office hours. In his renly to the | assessor's letter today the first controller says that the sppropriation act for the fiscal year 1891 provides saluries for said clerks without declaring how many hours per day they shall be employed. By regulation, he says, they are now required to be at tho office from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. with a recess of 30 minutes for lunch: but in the absence of any special wision of law salaried employes are not enti to extra compensation for work done in the time of their employment. He says it may be urged that, although hired by the yer, the employe cannot be required to work an unusual and un- reasonable number of hours so as to injure his health, and that such requirement would be a breach of contract on the part of the employ bat im the case at issue the employes are ing to work more than the usual office hours provided they can be paid extra compensation aud the work to be done is in the line of em- loyment of the clerks of the asseasor’s office. fie ys, in conclusion, that in his opinion it would not be lawful to pay from the above- named appropriation of $3,000 ra compensa- tion to the clerks of the assessor's office, MR.

As the audience, smiling with recollections of the funny scenes in ‘The Parlor Match” were emerging from the Park Theater in New York last night, an electric lineman named Koop mounted a pole to fix something about the lamps that controlled the garish light. Suddenly it was scen that something was wrong, the man became limp and the awful sizzle of the electric fluid could be heard by the crowd below. The electricity was eating into human flesh. The crowd below was spell-bound with horror, and was soon aug- mented by many scores of people who are always on the street about the corner of 35th street and Broadway. It so happened that Superintendent Charles W. Fipps of the Brush Electric Light Company was a visitor to the theater. He came out at this moment clad in full dress and took in the situation at a glance, With the assistance of Manager Dunleavy he succeeded in releasing the lineman from his terrible position only too late, for the poor man was already past all hel; Dr. George Gage, who was also in the audience, worked over the mau for # halt bour in the vain effort to re- uscitate him before the ambulance arrived.

A dispatch from Cresson says: There is every Feason to believe that the President is seriously considering the advisability of calling an extra session of Congrers, It is known that several Prominent Representatives have advised such ‘8 course with a view to an earlier consideration of the federal election bill. Persons who have talked with the President on this subject say that he will certainly reconvene Congress if certain pending measures in which he takes great interest are not disposed of at this ses- sion. These include the anti-lottery bill, the Supreme Court bil! and the labor bills, now in the Sonate, and the postal shipping bill, now await the action of the House.

The President said yesterday morning that if the weather continues favorable and public business does not prevent, he will remain at Cresson until the end of next week. He said the place seemed to agree with him. and that he wanted to stay as tong as possible. It is Jearned that while the Mountain House at this piace will close for the season next Saturday arrangements have been made there to supply the President's family with meals after date for a period not exceeding one week. THY GRAND ARMY VISITS. The Grand Army Posts at Tyrone, Pa,, have requested the President to receive them in a body next Wednesday, and their request will undoubtedly be granted. Maj. Denniston of Pittsburg, Pa., waited on the President last evening, and on behult of the G.A.R. posts of that city invited him to be present at their reunion at Rock Point, Pa., next Weduesday. The President received him cordially and expressed regret that his engage- ments would prevent an acceptance of the in- vitagion. ‘The President has also received invi- tutions from the people of nearly all the neigh- boring towns and villages to pay them a visi GOING TO SER THE MINERS. One that is likely to be accepted came from the miners of Houtzdale, Pa., who said they would suepeud work on the day of his visit and give him a ror reception. Mr. Wm. H.

Mr. Bayne Proposes to Exclude It From the Record ot the House. After the tariff bill was disposed of in tho House yesterday Mr. Enloe was recognized to call up his resolution condemning the attack of Representative Kennedy on the Senate in his speech delivered in the House. Mr, Grosvenor made point of order that the resolution did not present a question of privilege. Mr. Enloe argued the question at length, and his position was supported by Messrs. Bayne and Adama, Mr. Bayne said that he concurred in the remarks of the gentleman from Tennes- see. It was due to the Senate of the United States for the House to adopt the resolution which had been offered. It occurred, perhaps, for the first time in the history of the country that Senators of the United States had been at- tacked by name in the House of esenta- tives, and the Senate had been attacked as a body; and that epithets had been applied to those Senators which would dishonor and dis- grace any man before the country. It was in the interest of justice and truth and of the honor and integrity of this body that no technicality should interpose to pre- ent the House from doing its duty. ‘The utterances of the ntleman from Ohio September 3 had been withheld for revision and nos appeared in the Record until the precast time, so that notice could not be taken by members. Those remarke had now appeared, shora, perhaps, of some of their auimosities and misrepresentations; but, not- withytundingycontaining such a palpable charge of corruption upon the Senate that the House could not refrain from er the seal of its condemnation upon them. ‘This was no place to attack members of the Senate. The rul and courtesy which had always maintained this body had ———— its members against assaults from the Senate and the Senators from assaults from the members of the House. He trusted, in the interest of what was right, of what was due to the House in honor to itself, that no technicality should be allowed to come in the way of condemning the utterances made by the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Kennedy). Mr. Bayne then offered an amendment to the resolution, providing that the speech of Mr. Kennedy should be excluded from the per- manent Record. Pending a decision on the point of order an adjournment was taken. A LITTLE GIRS NERVE. She Pluckily Rescues a Playmate From Drowning. Rosie Corlies, the little daughter and only child of William H. Corlies, an insurance broker of Philadelphia, secretary of the Roso Troo Fox Huating Club, made a narrow escape from drowning Saturday afternoon. In com- pany with Edith Rowland and two daughters of Frank Ward, coal merchant of Philadelphia, all undet twelve years of age, sho was playing in the woods on the farm of Edward Worth of Wawa. The four children wandered down to the banks of Chester creek, where Edith and Rosie climbed into s boat that was moored there. immediately Rosie lost her bal- ance and fell overboard in twelve feet of water, going quickly out of sight. Little Edith, with grent nerve, reached over the sides, and as her [ eayoore came to the surface grasped her by er clothing and without assistance pulled her into the boat, , .& FATAL STREET DUEL. One of the Principals Killed and the Other Probably Fatally Wounded. A fatal stroot’ duel took place between two prominent young men at New Berne, Ala., Sun- day evening. Robert Turpin and Glen Duskin quarreled on Saturday evening. Duskin drew istol on Turpin, who, being unarmed, told a him to wait until they met again, and thes would “shoot it out.” The next evening the two men met and firing at once began. Tur- pin emptied his revolver, four out of five shots Fj 3 a ; j i i i i f | | | .the plunge for TAKING OFF FLESH, The Exhaustion to Which Jockeys Are Reduced—Hardships Endured. ‘From Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper. Little Bergen does not have much trouble in reducing his weight. as he has seldom been above 112 pounds. He rans all the way down to 190 pounds, and he easily reduces himself four or five pounds, as the occasion warrants, by going into the hot room of the bath, up in one corner and simply lying there while the perspiration rolls off of him. Once in a while he uncuris himself, goes to the plunge and rubs his head with ice water, then returus to his former position and stays there pluckily until he 1s down to the proper weight. Tarral is another easy reducer, He usually takes the hot room for two hours, then swims around in long while and returns for another hoor in the intense heat, If this is not enough, he puts on a sweater at the track and plods around in the dust hour aftor hour, untii he is fit to ride at the weight set out for him on the card. Jockeys like Tarral, Bergen and say Grace, whose weight is about 110 pounds, red not as much worried by the phantom of disaster known as too much weight as the brosd- shouldered and big-boned boys. Many jockeys of the latter build are sure, steady, clear- headed boys, with plenty of pluck and strength and the other qualifications that go to make up a successful jockey; but they have to undergo such extraordinary tortures to keep down toa weight which will not place a creck horse at a disadvantage in a race. that the: get nervous, irritable snd lose their skill 0 differenc: weak that ho cannot hold him wide one. A strong dose of brandy before the race be- gins may pull together a few of the failin energies, but it does not givo the rider the coo! judgment and thorough balance which comes of perfect health. That is one reason why who are naturally small and thin have a Lig advantage on the season's mounts over much more clever jockeys who are handicapped by big frames or a disposition to growstout. There seems to be a great dif- ference, too, in the abilities which jockeys show toward reducing themselves. An hour in steam heat with one man will take off a pound, while it will not reduce tho weight of another 8 ounces, They tell me that Spellman was one of the readiest reducers that ever went iptoa bath. He was known on one occasion to take off 7 pounds in four hours, His weight in summer was usually 130 pounds, while he often rode at 111 pounds, It is said that Spellman on one occasion, Raving to ride ata light weight at short notice, reducod his weight in one night from 111 pounds to 104 pounds in a little less than five hours. He was always the source of more or less alarm to the attendants of the baths, for they could never tell exactly how he was getting on. He would walk into tho hottest corner of the ateam room, wrap a wet towel around his head, curl up on a chair with his head resting on his folded arms and his legs crossed, and nit like 9 Sphinx for hours. Once in « while one of the attendants who knew him well would goand speak vo hi: butthe boy would not answer a word or raise hishead. They were always afraid that ho had fainted from exhaustion or had suc- cumbed to an accelerated action of the heart, but they were afraid to disturb him. After sitting two or three hours in this position be would uncurl himself, drift tothe outer room and drink a bottle of ice-cold beer, Then he would resume his former position and re- main there, with the thermometer at 160 or 170 degrees of heat and the Perepiration dripping off of him steadily. When he finally got out of the bath and had been thoroughly well rubbed he was invariably light wane to ride. Spellman died about two years ago on 6th ave- nue. It was at first thought that he had been robbed and murdered, but the coroner decided that he had fallen and hit his head against one of the pillars of the elevated railroad, causing (earner of the brain, which resulted in his leath, AN EMPRESS INCOGNITA, A Dismal Account of the Beautiful Elizabeth of Austela. From London Truth. Old-fashioned royalists are shocked at the fin de siecle incognita of the Empress Eliza- beth. “Mrs, Nicholson” was very bad, but “Mise Simpson” was too awful. The empress’ will was that every one should let her be. No exception was made for Count and Countess Hoyos, who rushed back from England to pay her their duty. Her let-me-be determination was shown in orders to concierge, clerk, lift- man and waiters at Meurice’s. Her imperial majesty meant to be simple Mrr. Nicholson and not to be pestoted with officiousness. No visitor was to be allowed to her rooms, which were those occupied during a course of nearly thirty years by Mr. ‘I. B. Potter and his late wife when they came to Paris, Empress Elizabeth was “let be” when she wanted to go out alone. She preferred calling cabs in the street to going about in a hotel carriage, friond of mine, who was on the same floor, went down with her in the lift, and thus describes her: “The figure, having stif- fened, has lost the fiexibie clegance which was so admired at the Melton Mowbray meets, But- it is still ladylike. Tho face betrays infinite Prieta y and has the drawn expression of dry-eyed grief, which is the worst of any. I was also struck with the darkened color of the hair and the pale reddish streaks—-certain signs of silver gray. Her eyes are still lovely, but have a dazed and startled expression. I fancy she hardly realized the causes of the grief from which she tries to escape. As to her dress,At was the plainest and commonest mourning. A nun could not have been more unadorned. As the fit was not Pastas dare say it was bought ready made, hen the empress went into the street she went aud stood at a print-shop win- dow, to be, I dare say, quite sure she was not followed, and then walked down a side street to Saint Roche, Her step is now unclastic and she seemed not to feel the grow under feet, walking as if they wero ‘asleep. ~ eee IMPRISONED IN A SMOKE HOUSE, A Brother Chains Up His Sister for Fifteen Years.
