Ministry Not Changed.

'MADKID, April 22.—The rumors of the granting of reforms for Cuba by the Spanish government are much discussed by all sections of the political world here. The supporters of the government declare that the ministry has not changed its line of conduct, but that it will submit its proposals to the cham bers.

WILL LOSE THE WAGER. Wheelbarrow Pedestrain Dying in Pittsburg1 Hospital.

PITTSBURG, April 22.—Dick Whittington, the man sent out by the California Athletic club with a wheelbarrow and dog and $1 in his pocket to defray the expenses of a pedestrain tour to New York and return, is lying in a very critical condition at the "West Pennsylvania hospital. He is suffering from hemorrhages brought on by exposure on the journey.

Whittington is under the care of the local physicians for a week, and they think he will not recover. Even if he gets better he has lost so much time that the club will lose its bet of $10,000, if such a wager was made.

CLOSE TO THE LAST.

An Indiana Man ISorrows a Cartridge to Kill Himself With. LOQANSPORT, I«d., April 22.—John

Harter, the wealthy Miami township farmer who suicided last Thursday, was a man whose saving propensities amounted almost to a fault. Even when making methodical preparations for death, he exhibited a desire to kill himself with as little expense as possible.

He went to Peru and purchased a sec-ond-hand revolver, but when he got home he found that the cartridges would not fit. He accordingly walked to Mexico and borrowed a cartridge with which he shot himself. He owtted nearly 800 acres of fine bottom land.

NEW YORK, April 22.—Nikola Tesla, the electrician and inventor in a communication to the electrical review, of New York,, annqunces two interesting results he has achieved.

One of these is that of a sensitive film be placed between two plates,1 say of magnesium and copper, a true Roetengen radiograph would be obtained after a very long exposure in the* dark.

Another wonderful result Tesla has obtained is that by the use of a new type of fluorescent screen, devised in his laboratory, he has been able to greatly increase the sharpness of the outlines in a shadow on the screen, and to actually see the human heart.

A Wonderful Family.

Near Athens, Ga., resides or did reside recently One of the most remarkable families to be found any place in that section of the south. It is the family of

D. Gloer. a man of the average weight of about 156 pounds. Gloer's "children" and his wife, however, are persons whose weights are far beyond the ordinary. To begin with, the wife weighs 816 pounds, over twice the weight of the husband. Joseph, the heaviest of the "boys," weighs 312, David coming a good second with 309 pounds of avoirdupois. Mary, tlio only girl of the family, weighs but little loss than her giant brothers, tipping the beam at about even 300. Isliman, the "runt," who, the neighbors say, "takes after his daddy," weighs but 190. Taking the six as a grand total, it is doubtful if there are a half dozen families in the United States comprised of a similar number that will weigh as much. Collectively they weigh 1,583.
