CUM 0FTHE HOSPITAL
"Sailor" Jordan, l'ho Fell from the
New Hotel Jcrmyn,
KICKS AND ENTERS CO.Ml'LAIXTS
But He and His Health Arc Freakish and
the Hospital Officials Like Hint-He
licincmbers Nothing of Ilia
Terrible fall.
On a cot In the surgical ward of the
Lackawanna hospital and In fairly
good health lies "Sailor" Jordan.
No especial Importance would be at
tached to either the mun or his bodily
condition but for the fact that the man
Is a freak and his bodily condition Is
something almout beyond the ken of
the medical men who are familiar with
his eise. "Sailor" Jordan four weeks
ago, lacking two days, fell from tho
sixth to the ground Hour of the new
Hotel Jcrmyn und today Is almost well,
which explains his Importance, und the
attention bestowed upon him and his
health.
In his awful fall he sustained a
broken leg, a broken arm, Internal
Injuries and concussion of the
brain, and was taken In a more or less
damaged state to the Lackawanna hos
pital. Under such conditions it is not
surprising that his life was despaired
of. But after being for ten days dead
to the world he became conscious. In
sisted upon attending mission services
ut the cathedral, complained of hospi
tal food, criticised the nurnes and the
doctors and In various other ways con
vinced those around him that he was
yet worth more than several dead men.
Jordan Is a kicker.
In fact "Snilor" kicked. The word
most aptly explains his recovering con
dition. However, the hospital force
humored him, enjoyed his queer char
acteristics and grumbling and finally
the ludicrous part of the situation
dawned upon the patient. Since then
he has been dubbed the clown of the
hospital and every one likes "Sailor,"
he likes every one, though he yet kicks
constantly, and there will probably be
certain mutual regrets when he Is dis
charged. Yesterday "Sailor" told of his fright
ful tumble to a Tribune reporter and
the Inference was drawn that the tum
ble was not so frightful after all. In
fact "Sailor" knows nothing ubout It.
He even does not remember the be
ginning ot the fall, and said that his
last recollection Is of trying to lift one
end of a short Iron beam.
This is taken by the doctors as an
evidence that his mind power was de
stroyed during the Inflnitessimal part
of second that his frightful danger
dawned upon him. There was noth
ing to indicate that he had an epileptic
or other sudden attack. If that were
so, the fall would have killed him.
Through "Sailor" Jordan no person
can ever learn "how It feels to fall
through six floors of a towering build
ing and strike on a pile of iron."
All that "Sailor" knows nbout it Is
what he learned two weeks after the
accident from the fellow' workman who
stood near him when he fell. He struck
an Iron rod or beam on every floor ex
cept the fifth. His body was tumbled
about forward, backward nnd side
way and he struck thp ground floor on
tho back of his head and shoulders with
such sickening force that his body re
bounded upward for several feet and
fell face downward.
Is Still Kept In lied.
A few days ago he was able to bear
his weight on the broken leg, and his
broken arm Is so strong that In a day
or so its plaster cast will be removed.
He Is kpt In bed because of some di
gestive Irregularity and because of
some refraction which might result
from his not too angelic disposition if
he were up and about.
Under certain conditions "Sailor"
Jordan could make a good living In a
Scranton museum.
Scores of persons ns they hurry by
the towering frame work of the Hotel
Jermyn daily stop for an Instant to
gaze at the point from which "Sailor"
took his plunge. A group of Idlers can
be descried at any hour of the day
watching the progress of the work
and talking about Jordan's fall. The
number o" men who saw hi in an he shot
downward Is constantly growing.
When the accident occurred there were
probably not over live persons who
saw the unfortunate man ns he whirled
through the air, but now a census
would without doubt reveal not less
than 500 persons willing to affirm that
they saw the fall.

Affairs have taken another turn In
the matter of iJh appointment of a dis
trict engineer. Klchnrd J. Farrell, fore
man of the William Connell Hose com
pany, has withdrawn, nlld Is support
ing Louis Schwas, the present district
chief, for a reappointment. First Mr.
Forrel had the Hi Id to lilmfplf, because
It was contended that the William Cou
ncils had waited long vnough for the
honor. District Chief Schwass wns
urged by his friends to stand for reap
pointment, but ho refused to stand In
tho way of Foreman Farrell, of the
William Council's. It recently dawned
on the latter tlinit he ought not to have
plopped In and urge himself forward
to tho displacement of Mr. Schwnss,
nnd he reasoned It out that Mr. Schwnss
bus made such a good record that he
Is entitled to a second term. Therefore
he withdrew hnd Acquainted Mr.
Schwnss of the fact. The present chief
thereupon consented to becomo a can
didate for reappointment. This amic
able understanding will result In Mr.
Farrell's unanimous selection for the
honor a year hence.

THE MIMIC WORLD.
Peter Matter and his company ap
peared for a second time at the Acad
emy of Music Saturday night. The
vaudeville portion of he entertainment
was excellent, but It was the set-to
between Maher und Patrick Murphy,
of this city, that the largo audience
was eagerly waiting for. It was nearly
10.30 when tho men uppeared un the
stage. Murphy is not near so largo as
the big Irish champion, but he knows
how to handle himself and use his
hands, and he has plenty of grit. Al
though greatly outclassed by Muhor he
gavo that gentleman an exceedingly
lively battle for four rounds and mnn
uged to land some telling blows. Billy
Hennessy and Peter Lowry, both mem
bers of tho cornimny, gave a 3-round
sparring exhibition. Tonight Maher
and his company appear at Carbondale.
Nugent's Metropolitan company
closed a successful week's engagement
at the Frothlngham Saturday night. In

much superior to those that usuully

Tonight at the Academy of Music will
be given one of the most Important
dramatic productions of the season. Lil

play. In the cast is that best of classic
actors, Charles B. Hanford. By special
arrangement the prices here will be on
the dollar, not on the dollar and a half
scale. The play with Its magnificent
mountings and many sensational fea
tures Is certainly a brilliant entertain
ment. The Egyptian dance executed
in the first act by the star; her mag

one by land, the other by sea, shown
In a series of panoramic views, ballets,

Washbtirn-Crosby Co. wish to nssure their many put
rons that thev will this vetir hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop

owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully thrco
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling ha9
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
