"Talk about a policeruun's lot beinpr
'an unhappy one,' " said a veteran hack
Iriver the other evening to a New York
Herald man, "well, you can lay large,
floomy and peculiar wa.-ers that
I will swap lots with any police
nan on the east or west side or,
for that matter, with any one oi
;he squad in the toughest district in
;he city. I guess you don't know what
are drivers have to put up with, or the
rreat difference in the kind of partie8
ire have to drive. Why, before now I
lave had parties take me at the Astor
louse and give me an order to drive them
X Fifty-ninth street, and when I would
jet out at the address given me I would
:limb off the box to open the door for
ny passenger and collect my fare,
when, lo! presto, change! the hack
would be empty. The Lord knows
where my freight got out, but most
probably somewhere between Twenty
;hird and Twenty-fourth streets. I
lon't see how they do it so quietly, for
it makes some noise to open a hack
loor and takes come practice to jump
mt safely. Hut they do it somehow,
Mid I suppose it is partly due to our
jetting tired and sleepy with our day's
work.
"Then, I sometimes run across a hard
jrowd, and when 1 try to collect at the
jnd of the route they 'give me the
laugh,' and I know that if I insist I
will only get half killed. Policemen
are never near, cither. Oh, I don't
blame them, for if I was one I would
bide, too.
"Another thing that troubles a driver
awfully is waiting waiting, perhaps in
a pouring rain for a man never went
into a house yet without saying that
he would be out ib a few minutes. And
you never can tell when they will come,
either. If they, would only say how
long in the first place, it would be
easier, for then you could drive off to
some convenient spot, or else' curl up
and go to sleep quietly inside, in case
the gentleman didn't give you a cigar
to comfort you. And, speaking of
cigars, it is astonishing how iais.r fees-'
drivers get; A man will fee his waiter,
it any people in such employment, but
he seUlom thinks of offering the driver
anything but a cigar or a drink. Yet a
driver has a hard t.me, and his wages
are not large, either, to say nothingof
the responsibility resting on him in
the way of careful driving, finding the
way, etc.
"Still, I have known people to give
me money occasionally, and in this line
I think actors arc mU-a generous than
others. There is one lady in particular
the wife of a star actor who never
fails to give me at least fifty cents over
and above the fare I have to turn in to
the boss. I never eniov shonninsr et-
eept when I go with her.
"Speaking of ladies. I suppose they
are worse than anybody else at keeping
you waiting. The trouble with them is
that they get as far as the door of a
bouse nncl there they stand. Why, I
have jumped up and down off my box
a dozen timer, just because every time
aiy fare opened the house door she
would close it again and continue her
conversation. Of course it fooled me,
is I wanted to be ready to open the car
riage door for her.
"Theater parties and parties who
want to bo taken to the stations' are
pretty good jobs, as the distances are
ilmost always short and direct and
shere are generally scvaval in the party.
Another thing a "driver has to do is to
ase judgment as to how he drives, ac
sording to the party inside antl the oc
casion.. Often have I had a young fel
sow press fifty cents Into my hand when
t would be driving liim home from the
Jieater with his girl and whisper:
Drive slow as you can, please, and go a
ong way.' Well, sir, perhaps those same
people would take me again a year or
;wo afterward, and I could tell they
were married, because the fellow would
put her in -the carriams and shut the
loor, saying:. 'Good nk'ht, dear: will
oe home soon. I just want to look in at
;he Hoffman house; business engage
ment. Man takes an early train; be up
n half an hour.'
' VWhcn you are driving swells home
xom tne tneater wun t heir wives yon
want to drive fast, you know, so that
;hey can get back to their clubs at a de
cent hour.. . Everyone knows that you
want to go slow at funerals and fast to
;rains, but for the little fine details a
Jrivcr has got to have judgment.
"What's that? Well, thank you, sir,
lon't care if I do. Very much obliged.
3ood night, sir. and please don't men
tion my name." .

Volkhovsky, a Russian exile, while
iecturing at Hampstcad, Eng., related a
lesperate artifice to which he once re

ihe time there was in his possession a
certain document the di.scov.ery of
which meant serious danger, not only
xi himself, but also to his friends.
Volkhovsky was desperate, for it was

aim. Jle coolly handed the document

AN EXTRAORDINARY RACE.
The Plan by Which u Pie Could Be Mad.
to Outrun a Horse.
"The queerest race I ever heard of,'
said Major Wethcrill in the Colonnade
to a Philadelphia Press reporter, "wat
proposed at 1 levon inn a few years age
by one of the guests, an Italian noble
man, Count Montglas. A crowd of up
were talking about horses one day on
the veranda, and JIontgluH offered to
wager that he could successfully run
any active pi'r in Chester County against
any horse there, and beat the horse,
over a twenty-live yards course. Af
was natural, we roared at the idea, but
the Count persisted that he could do so,
and then we supposed there was some
catch in the wager and nobody took it,
"After awhile Montglas and I were
left alone on the veranda, and he told
me that he was sincere in the bet,
and explained how it was that a pig
could outrun a horse over twenty-five
yards. Of course it takes a horse a long
time to get under way, and it was on
this alone that the Count placed his
faith. He would have the course de
cided upon, and over it would scatter
a line of corn, at the end placing a big,
double handful. Then he would release
the pig. and the latter would start
along, eating the corn ns he went, un
til reaching the end. where ha would
find the double handful. Later on that
day the process would he repeated and
the pig would move hurriedly, cat along
the scattered kernels, in an endeavor to
reach the pile, twenty-five yards away.
I he next day considerably less corn
would be scattered over the course,
but the double handful would still be
placed at the end. Within a week only
a very few grains would mnrk the line
to the capital prize, and on being re
leased t!w pig would utart off at break
neck speed i;i hin ( Teediness to get the
latter. "Well."' continued the Major,
"on the day of the race there would be
no corn at all scattered on the course,
but piggy would be squirming and
wriggling to get off toward the pile.
When all would be ready the word
'fo!' yould be given; the pig would be
freed, and away he'd start (Is if shot
frem a cannon, liy the time the horse
eon Id (;! t, fairly under way the pig
would lie half over the course, just
tca"i':- ' H' i:!mi.t Ktrt to reach
Uu.l !' .dr. of grain. Yon see, Mont-
gla.s -tn-.i:! on the pig's legs, but
an his appetite."

. ,"I don't cure if I am an old maid,"
said a charming woman. "If I wait till

FATAL PNEUMONIA!
Peculiarities of a Prevalent
Dangerous Disease.
and
Its Different Symptoms and Stages and

the Various Methods of Treatment
la Use Among Physicians of
Different Schools.
The sudden changes of temperature
and the carelessness of people generally
who are apt to expose themselves un-
necessarily to wet , and cold are fruitful
inducements to this disease, the statin.'
tics of which show a fatality of about
thirty in one hundred cases. The mal-;
ady, says the Chicago Tribune, was
formerly known as lung fever. It is
an inflammation or congestion of the
lungs, and there are four distinct classes
the lobar, lobular, fibrous and caseous
or tubercular pneumonia. The two
classes last mentioned not infrequently
uuuuuaie m pmmsis or consumption.
The first stage is known as that of "en
gorgements," the second as "red hep-1
ati.ation," when the lungs become the
color of the liver. When this brownish
color gives way to gray the malady has
reached the third stage, that of "gray
hepatization." This is the stage of
"absorption" in favorable cases, when
convalescence ensues. In unfavorable
cases the disease passes into the puru
lent stage, when death is likely to en
sue within il.. verv -fi.w ,ln.,G cm,.;..

the-nippje on the affected, side.
A rack-
ing cough and expectoration soon fol
low, jfhis is the stage in which the
oval, bacteria is found in the sputum.
Them' follows' high fever', pain in the
head, Iosb of appetite, severe thirst,
prostration, increased respiration and
pulse varying from 80 to 120.
In the second stage pain' may cease,
but the cough may continue, though
less hard and painful. In the third
stage the puticnt, if the symptoms are
favorable, will cough less; respiration
will resume its normal condition, appe
tite will return and pain will almost, if
not entirely, disappear. One of the pe
culiarities of pneumonia, is that this
third stage in the intemperate may lead
to delirium tremens. Once convales
cence begins in eases of pneumonia,
however, recovery is almost certain.
Fatal relapses are very infrequent.
Pericarditis, or inflammation of the
membranous sack which incloses the
heart, is a very grave complication in
nctunonia.
The old method of treatment was
bloodletting, and some physicians ro-
seort to that now when the patient, is
plethorie. Some believe that the at-
taek ctin be rendered harmless by a dose
of from forty to sixty grains of quinine.
The course of treatment commonly
employed is to give quinine, untipyrine,
aconite, and nntifebrines in the first
stage, with expectorants and flaxseed
poultices as hot as they can be borne
applied every twenty minutes. In the
second stage the object is to support
the action of the heart, and milk punch
or some other stimulant is given. Dig
italis is also prescribed, and this treat
ment is continued with the third stage
and up to convalescence of the fatal is
sue, Death comes when the lungs be
come consolidated so that the blood can
not pass through them and can not be
come oxygenated, and is due to heart
failure. Some physicians have lately
used oxygen gas to aid the oxygenating
function of the lungs and in Germany
patients have been earned into the open
air. In one of the German hospitals a
ward is being prepared specially for the
treatment of patients suffering from
pneumonia, the preparation including
the construction of inachincrv for
pumping cold air over the heads of the
patients. At some of the hospitals in
this country cases have, boon success
fully treated in tents. The tents are
well heated in winter, though, by large
stoves, so that the patients,' while
breathing rir almost absolutely pure,
are not exposed to the cold. Freer at

jective point with American physicians
