In tha latter ton reeumed hi prectioa, and aaala In 1I0 went to Vienna, where he re mained five yeare. H was there he took up the weird atudy of the phe nomena of death. Ever since ha took up tha atudy of medicine he wae aiiainue to atudy - death, and nowhere in the world la the opportunity offered aa It la In Vienna at the Algernelne Kran kenheus. or "general hospital." In no other hospital In ths world Is such a minute record kept ef the oauees of death and nowhere la there auoh op portunity afforded for Ita peraonal ob servation. In the first placs the Algemelre Krenkenhaua Is the lareeet hospital In the world. It haa 1.100 bads, 1.000 of which are devoted to general hoapttal cases. Ths remainder are devoted to the old soldiers. The hoapltal Is sup ported by the Austrian government, and is rrse. niiween so and day In the various wards of the enormous hoapltal, and a post-mortem Is held on every body. This la one of the rules of the hoa- everything li patlenta die every devote their entire time to the work. A history or each case, together iib the dlacnoals and the treatment, whloa Is prepared by the attending physician during life. Is read before the poet mortem la performed. Theee records are of great assist ance to those who wlah to atudy the phenomena of death, for they furnish statistics of the causae ef death and ahow what treatment would have been beet for the symptoms shown. Dr. uumiston was the only phyalclan at the hospital who waa making a special atudy of death, and every poa slble assistance waa shown him to aid him In hla unuaual atudy. The wards ware open to every eludent. but , It waa only by ehanoe that they would happen to be at thebedalda of a dying man or woman. With Dr. .Humlaton It waa different Every Aura and physician In the hoaplfal knew what he was atudylng, and whenever they thou h t a patient waa about to expire thev would call him and he would haaten to the bed aide of the dying man hast be In ed by the hoapltal attachee thau In American hospitals that h eoou waa able to witness 40 or 10 people die every day and think ef nothing but the eolentlftcally Interesting phases of the various casea Often several patients were dying at the earns time aad he would have to ten from ona ward to another n time to wltneaa their final dis solution. During these five years which he spent In the big hospital ha aaw more than 11.000 man, woman end children die from almoet every cause known to man. "The Uerman and Austrian physi cians." said Dr. Humlaton. "ar moie Intereated In the causes of death than tha phyaloiane of other natlona. and more attention Is paid to thet ;rtlru lar study at the Algemelna Krenkenhaua than at any similar institution In the world. That la why I ehoae that hoa pltal to puraue my favorite atudy. which I have made my hobby through out yesra of practloe In this city. I have found thet when I know about WAR VESSELS WERE ONCE BUILT IN PITTSBURG One Hundred Years Ago Yard- Turned Out Fighting Craft for Uncle Sam 0 Navy ITT0BTJRO. Pa.. Saturdar-war vesaela built to Pittsburg! Tha bare auggeatlon seema absurd, but at one time, long In the misty peat. It waa a reeilty. .

Even prior, to the war of 1111 war veaaela were built In Pittsburg. There la a coaslbllftr that the city will reclaim thla lucrative Induetry and war craft of an auxiliary kind be manu factured, but aa thla hinges on the Im provement of the entire length of the Ohio river It mar not oome In the near future. Judging- or ths progress made in slack watering that stream within the laat 10 years, while much of the material for suoh vessels Is made In Plttabura and its environs, It la shipped to the coast and there put together, in years gone by the parts were assembled here and then floated or carried down etream under tbelr own ateam. Steamboat building Is atlll carried on, the river coal and transportation combi nation having a marine ways at Eliza beth and steel barges are made at Am bridge, while the Reea boat building and engine building works on Duquenne way turn out Iron steamers and light draught bouts designed for the shallow rivers of Europe and South America. But these are merchant craft. No war vessels of any kind are now constructed In Putsburg. A oouple of years ago W. A. Crump, superintendent of transportation of the coal combination, pronounced all condl tlona favorable for the building of small war craft in the local waters. "I do not see why the building of all kinds of river craft and light draught ocean and lake craft should not become a leading Industry in thla city," ba said at the time "we nave an in neces sary materlala here and the akllled la bor. In fact, all we need la alack water. Nine feet of water the year around on the Ohio la neceeeary." Oldest Industry. . Boat building I beyond doubt tha old eat Induatry of Pittsburg. At a time whan tha country swarmed with Indiana hundreds of canoe war turned out here, and later, when the Indian trader and trapper came to the "Forka'of the Ohio," he built rude flat boata to trans port hla fura and peltriea down tha river. Boat yards ware established as early as the revolutionary war, a large num ber of barges being conatructed In 1777 for army use at a point Juat above the mouth of Turtle creek. Boat building for the United Statea navy began in thla city more than a century ago. When war with Prance was Imminent as the result of Napoleon's high handed actions in closing the mouth of the Mis sissippi to American commerce and travel, the galley President Adama was built here on May 19. 1798. It carried General Wilkinson, commander In chief of the United Statea army, down the Ohio on June 8 of that year, being; built In record time. Thla Bpeaka volumes for the efficiency and speed of Pittsburg mechanics. Shortly after this the keel of a second galley, the Senator Kosa, was laid out same year the galley the Senator Kosa, was laid out. is now no crart with spar but the galley boat was not launched turned out In this section until the spring of 1700. As war with France did not occur these vessels did not see any service. It appears from the accounts of those early days that the chief boat builders for the navy at this place were Taras con Brothers and James Bethoud & Co., both firms having yards at this point. In the year 1804 many brigs, schooners and other vessels were on the stocks of THE JEFFERSONS Successfully nnt seeming fortitude with whloh thoss ha has known llmla in weir jives per haps have approached the ordeal of final dissolution. Perhapa if w knaw that there had been no ordeal In th closing hours, that then th desire, de termination and hone to live ar greater than the fear to die, and that death la a function as natural and unemblttered as sleep, w might be less unhappy at the thought, we ourselves must some day face the great mystery. And it was with the object of determining theoe things that Dr. Humlaton devoted five years of hla life to a atudy of tha phe nomena of death. The principal reaaon why Dr. Humla ton took up this weird study, which would be worthy of a seml-sclentlflo treatise by Edgar Allan Poe, was to weigh the old adage that the good die a peaceful and the wicked a horrible death. Dr. Humiston's parents were strict believers tn the Anglican faith, and from childhood he was taught that a sublime death was In stors for those who had led a moral and upright life, while the dying hours, or even moments of tho ungodly would be tortures. In addlfion, there was always a weird fascination about death whloh attract ed him, anil he wanted to disprove, at least t i his own satisfaction, a number of beliefs he had - brought from child hood. He believed the phenomena of death waa a subject which had been neg lected, but which was worthy of close study. His theory was that If so much time and money was spent In studying how to bring people Into the world, it was quite Important to study how they left It. especially as the knowledge thus derived would be of great benefit to mankind, both In prolonging life- and easing the pain of those who suffer. No medical man or scientist has made a more careful and thorough study of thla grewsome subject than Dr; Humla ton. He Is recognized as an authority on the subject, and while his observa tions and deductions have never before been made public, they are known to the greatest . scientists of Europe, and , aocounted as valuable and highly accu rate Information about ona of tha rid dles of the universe. There are three theories by which man accounts for all phenomena. First, the supernatural; second, the su pernatural and the natural; third, the natural. Dr. Humiston studied the phe nomena of death aa natural phenom ena. "There Is no truth In th statement that, the good die happy and the wicked suffer, as has been taught by the church ever since the dawn of the Christian era," said Dr. Humiston, to a World reporter. "There Is absolutely no dif ference In the actual death of the vilest c riminal and the most sainted man or M-oman. There Is no pain In death. Avoi J Going to Law By Cara Reese. ' EEP out of law altogether, or else keep in law up to the handle, if you expect to be a winner In law suits. Tou muat make up your mind to deliberately swallow every grievance and Injustice and there by save your bank account and pre serve your mental balance aa well. Or you muut do the very opposite, namely, rmploy an attorney by the year and ulrnply wash your hands of legal pro cesses by dally unloading the troubles on him and leaving the thinking, the manipulating, the disturbances and anx ieties as his share along with the reg ular salary you pay him. These are the only two way of steering clear of legal worriment and cf scoring victory in th long run. Just the minute you begin to take up all the little infringements and Infractions on your rights and privileges as a citi zen and run Into court with them as an amateur, that is as one unprepared to meet the cold, calm working of legal process that has been on the erlnd for many years, Just that minute you enter the maelstrom and are whirled hither and thither until you are blinded, dated and churned, and eventually take leave of all your re maining senses. Bo, If that is your plan at present, you are duly warned, and there la time yet to calf off the slip you hold from your savings de posit on a two weeks notice, and to restore the amount it calls for to the principal once more. If you know nothing about law, then keep out of it; ewallow your chagrin aa a personal In justice and thereby aave your pocket book. Then there Is the one other plan for the know-nothing, but this Is too ex pensive for you In your present cir cumstances as a clerk on lowered wage In hard times. 8me attorneys, "by the year," receive salaries as big as the salary of the president of the United states. And they earn their fee, for that is what they are paid for, to win every case, regardless of facts. Thla Is why kings and queens and great heads of corporations and rulers of na tions are not worn out when wars and rumors of war, snd territorial selsur and poaching and pilfering In forest pro nerve and on high seas com to their ears. This Is why they are not worn out by hot temper, expostulation, threats of anlng to law and wildly hunt ing up forgotten records and document which they imagine will be needed In evidence. Instead, they almply aay, "Ah. bat" then calmly loach the button, then allp their worries, ona command only, to the effect that the verdlot la tha end ba In their favor.

Oeneral James p llara, grandfather of the late Mr a. Scnenley, owned several mercharrt vessels, one of which fell Into the hands of Spanish pirates operating In tha Carribean sea. Brig Allegheny. About thla time the brig Allegheny, of 160 tons, was launched at the yards of Barber Sc. Lord. All this activity waa largely due to th feeling of the federal authorities that war with England would soon ensue, whloh It did seven years later. ,The next great period of war activity was when the Mexican war broke out, when six vessels, two war steamers and four revenue cutters, were built here. The war steamer Michigan was bark rigged and the war steamer Allegheny ship rigged. Four others, the Bib, Hun ter, Walker and Jefferson, were schoon er rigged. It seems, strange. Indeed, at this late day to hear of sailing vessels built and launched In this city, for there is now no crart with spars ana rigging used In Its construction. It measured tit feet in length, 41 feet beam and drew 11 feet of water. Its burden was 110 tons, and It had a speed of It miles an hour In atlll water. The Manayunk waa towed down the Ohio on March , 188S, having broken loose from its moor ings the night before but without any mishap, although It floated three miles or mora Among tha unique war craft fitted out In this port were the rams, ar ordi nary steamboats mad ironclad by plates of boiler Iron, and the pilot houae and other parts protected by walls of heavy timbers. Theae ware attached ' to the flotilla of gunboata on the Mis sissippi that performed such good serv ice at Vlcksburg and other places dur ing ths war. There are several ram fleet .veterans living In Greater Pitts burg. Merchant Ships. The number of merchant vessels butlt In Pittsburg Is legion. Ons of the very first. If Indeed not tha first, was the schooner Monongahela Farmer, con structed at Elizabeth In 1801. Pittsburg was only ons year behind her sister town In boat building of this descrip tion, as the records show that in 1801 the schooner Amity, of 120 tons burden,' was built here by Jarasoon Brothers. The voyages of these htstorlo craft mark the initial step In the building up of the enormous commerce of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. Before the ad vent of ralroads the Ohio river was the great highway for freight shipments (and passenger traffic as well) out of Pittsburg to the boundless west.

This la a moat peculiar fart, for It la- ftenarally believed that many people tave been able to tell when they were going to din.

They were strangers to each other, but ha was convinced that she was a southern girl of high casts, and she In turn believed h(m to be a New York man of money. "You are from New York, arn't you?" she abruptly asked when they had paused for a moment; after a stroll along the beach. "Yes," he answered, determined to re veal himself In his true station. "I live In East Sixteenth street, where I grovel among my fellow-clerks on $10 a week. But you you are a aouthern lady of social distinction and" "No," she coldly rejoined; "I live In East Sixteenth street among th clerks also!" "Anywhere near No. 161 T" ha faintly asked. "Next door 1581" Then they parted. ately after they had given me the sin nal. Home of them lived for houra ami even days afterward, and many dlH ' before they were able to tell or slgnat me. Some nf those who told m thev were going to live 24 hours more, dieI aa they were speaking. Careful Investi gation allowed absolutely that no on can tell when the end will come. Many dying people, when their suf- fering ceases, having reached th perlo.f of no pain, believe that they are better. In a large percentage of th cases I ob- served th patients thought they were Improving when thay were actually dying. Some of them thought they were ' ao much better that they jumped out of bed and walked around the room an! then fell back In bed and died.

J Nearly all patlenta who are dying, t Dotn tnoaa wno nave Deen told tnat they have not much longer to live and those who know themselves that they are g-olng to die, want to live, and make a struggle to do so. Of course, soma want i to die. and either pray to pass away, or beg the physician or nurses to enl their suffering. That Is only to ba ex' pected, and the expectation prove the" rule.
