THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH FIlILiDELI'Il 1 A, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1871. ) (l 1 A LOJiGSLEEP. Says the St. Louis Timet "of tho 4th Instant: -We have recently had In onr midst a most remarkable cane of coma, with general noeatuc ela, lasting 120 hours. Emma Gray, who lives at No. G17 Green street, was attacked with epileptic convulsions early la the evening of the 27th of December, which were repeated very frequently for four or five hours. After the convulsions ceased she fell into a comatose etato, In which she was utterly deprived of her f enses, not being able to be aroused by power ful shocks from electric batteries or any appli cations which ordinarily succeed In reaching the human senses and provoking some evidence of vitality. The patient was visited by several of our pro minent physicians who had heard of the phe nomenon. Such cafes are mentioned as being of extremely rare occurrenco, and doubtless all of our disciples of Keculnpius would have been glad to have witnessed this one. Watson, in his "Principles and Practico of Physic," says that after epileptic attacks the subject has frequently leen known to lapse into a stupor which lasted for an hour or two, sometimes for half a day. lie says nothing of the complete loss of sonsl bility, however, as was the case in this instance. Many features in the case bore a strong analogy to that of the sleeping beauty from Obion county, Tenn. The Green street woman was in this condition from early Tuesday evening till about 10 P. M. on Saturday, during which time ehe breathed regularly and freely, with no dis tortions of her face, her eyes being just closed. To all outward appearance Bho was merely enjoying a gentle sleep. She says that ehe came to this city from Memphis, and that about five years ago, while living remote from medical men, she fell into a similar state, which lasted nearly a week. Preparations were being made this last time to put her on exhibition, when she gave signs of returning consciousness. The case is certainly a remarkable one, both as to symptoms and the duration. Emma is quite a etout, hearty girl, and looked, and really was, as well is a short time after awaking as she ever was, with tho exception of paleness and weak ness, which were the natural results of doing without food or water for so long a period. STYARTIIM011E COLLEGE. Progress of the Nevr Iantltutton. A lady whose opportunities for accuracy of statement are excellent has stated the following facts concerning the progress of "Swarthmore, the Friends' College In Delaware county, Pa.: The institution now contains about 250 pupils. The boys' department is full, and the girls' has only one or two vacancies. A considerable ma jority of the whole number are members ot the Society of Friends. The faculty includes sixteen professors, ot whom ten are women, the chair of mathematics being filled by one of these. The girls in the institution make progress in their studies fully equal to tho boys, and, as a rule, stand higher in the classes, in all departments. The boys say that this is because the girls work harder "While we play, they study." As to 'this, it may be objected that in order to preserve health, sufficient outdoor exerciso and recrea tion is an absolute necessity, and that overwork in study Is an error always to bo avoided. Numerous improvements are now in progress about the institution, and the foundation of a large building for a gymnasium has been laid. It will be ready for use soon. The walks around the grounds have been laid out, and filled with a solid and enduring cement of gravel and asphaltum. Among the ornamental and shade trees, it may be remarked, with re gret, that the two young oaks, growing from acorns brought by James Mott, of Philadelphia, from England, and planted in the autumn of 1809, at the formal opening of the institution, by his venerable widow, Lucretia Mott, are perishing. A HEROIC SCHOOLMISTRESS. She Saves the yJvee of Two Little Bays at the Kidkof her Own. The Independence (Iowa) 'Bulletin records the heroic conduct of a lady teacher of that place, Miss Maggie Cooper. The school build ing in which she was teaching Is provided with ventilating flues, connected with the rooms by registers. These registers are of cast-iron, weighing about forty pounds each, and are let into the wall about thirteen feet from the floor. On Monday aiternoon of last week, as two little boys were working at the blackboard, directly under the register, in Miss Cooper's room, the lady happened to cast her eye in the direction of the ceiling, and saw to her consternation the heavy iron register was on the very point of fall ing on the heads of the unconscious children. Taking in-the situation at a glance, she saw that the little ones could not be removed in time to avoid the impending danger; but, determined to cave their lives at any sacrifice, Bhe rushed to the 6pot, and extending her arms above the heads of the little boys, received the whole weight of the falling iron, and, by the utmost exereiee of her strength, diverted it from the line of Its descent to the floor, where it fell close by the side of the Imperilled children. There is not the least doubt that, but for the heroic action of Miss Cooper, the lives of one or both of the boys would have been sacrificed. Miss Cooper received a severe cut in the hand, and for a day or two her arm was so benumbed by the concussion as to be entirely useless. THEATRICAL SESSATIOX. On Saturday evening, at a theatre in this city, Bays the Pittsburg Chronicle ot last evening, one of the attractions was a gymnastic performance by a man and two women. The performers used a queerly-sbaped iron framework, which was properly suspended from the celling, and ex tended its length across the house, above the audience in the orchestra chairs. In one act the man hung by bis legs from one end of the frame, and was to catch with his hands, by the ankles, one of the women who swung towards him off a email trapeze, suspended from the other end of the frame. Unfortunately the attempt failed, and the woman was pitched headlong towards the floor. As it so chanced that part of the house was crowded, and the audience spread out their arms and caught her. If the scats in that part had been empty, as frequently happens, the girl must have sustained serious injury, if not loss of life. Although it may not be quite proper for women to engage in such dangerous gymnastics. still so long as they do they have a right to have proper precautions taken for their safety, and in the case of all trapeze and other perilous per formances the law should require that netting should be spread to catch the performers if j they fall. ALLEGED HEAYY DEFALCATION. Examination ef the PrUeaer. E. S. Stokes, charged with embezzling between $25,000 and 35, 000 from the Brooklyn Oil Ke finery Company, was brought up for examina tion at the Tombs Court this morning. The room was croweed with the prisoner's friends and others anxious to hear the proceedings. Stokes entered the court, accompanied by his counsel, W. A. Beach, Esq. lie was attired in thn height of fashion, with a seal-skin coat, a .10.000 diamond Din. and carried a gold-headed cane. His appearance attracted considerable attention, and he was the observed of all obser vers. The first witness called was Mr. v imam A. Brers. Treasurer of the Brooklyn Oil Refl- very Company, at who3e instance Stokes was arrested, who testified that the prisoner bad ob tained from the Devoe Manufacturing Company the sum of 20,ooo on two cdccks or iu,uw each. The checks were numbered 7'.K)8 and mis drawn on the Importers' and Traders' TUnk. and alined bv F. W. Devoe. Mr. Stokes was superintendent of the oil refinery, and claims that he can show that he did not procure the funds fraudulently. JV. x. Commercial.
