BRUIN WENT THE PACE.
B« Wu Co** Abn»lT« Wben la Htt
Cops, But He Meant Well.
Bi*r Jackson is dead, and as a result
the heart of King McManus is bowed
down beneath the weight of unutter
able woe. Jackson was only a big,
bhaggv, black bear, bnt he was a hale
fellow" in his way, and there was not u
man in all the Potrero who could cope
with him when it came to drinking
whisky, says the San Francisco Ex
aminer. He could drink from morning
till night, go rolling to his bed in tho
corner of the yard, and get up in the
morning fresh as ever. From his youth
he was a rolllckingr blade, with a good
dash of the Bohemian in his makeup,
and early in life ho started to travel
the pace that kills. His friends had
foreseen for a long time that there
could bo but one end to it all, and
when Jackson succumbed to the grim
destroyer they shook their headsknow
ingly and saifl with one accord: "I
told you so."
Sunstroke was the immediate cause
of his death, but alcoholism reared its
hideous head behind it all. Dissipa
tion had sapped the strength of a once
robust constitution, and the other day
came the end. As usual, Jackson was'
in his cups. During the forenoon he
poured whisky into his stomach in lib
eral quantities, and the consequence
was that by the noon hour he was very
drunk. Then he became ugly ana'
boisterous, as was his wont when
drinking, and he was thrust out in
the small back yard to sleep off the ef
fects of his potations. The day was
hot and Jackson's blood was afire
from whisky. He lay in the sun for
some time in a drunken stupor, and
when evening came he was dead. Sun
stroke, the doctor said, and his lite
must have gfone out hours before they
found him.
When it was found that Jackson wss
dead, King McManus was sent for. He
had been the latter's favorite for years,
and it was deemed fitting 1 that the
monarch of Potrero should be given
the opportunity to show the last honors
to his pet.
"Give him the best send-off you can,,
boys," was the king's admonition,"and
don't spare any expense. Jackson was
a thoroughbred, and nothing is too
good for him. Send the bill to me.' 1
And so McManus' followers gatheredi
in to attend the .rites. There was a
wake such as only the Potrero order
knows, and when it was all over the
body of Jackson was laid to rest in a
grave dug for him on the top of Irish
hill, overlooking the scene of many a
jolly carousal. Nor was there any lack
*of mourners. Jackson had mad* a host
of friends in his dissipated career, and (
they stood about his graveside to do
him such honor as they could.
"We planted him just like a human
being," said one sympathizer.- "And
why shouldn't we? He wasn't the best
bear in the world, for he drank like a
flsli and was often cross and abusive,
but he meant well, and never played it
low on a friend in need."
GREATEST IN THE WORLD
An Imme&ie Bridge to Span the Mertry
at Liverpool.
It is proposed to build an immense
bridge over the Mersey to connect Liv
erpool with Birkenhead, and the de
signs of the structure are already in
existence. According to descriptions
in the Liverpool newspapers, the
bridge will be of the arched suspen
sion type, in three spans, the roadway
being suspended from an arch instead'
of the usual chain. Each span will
have a clear waterway of 1.100 feet,
the center span having a clear head-,
way of 150 feet above high water of or
dinary spring tides. Possibly it may be
considered advisable to have one large
central span of 1,500 or 1,600 feet with
two smaller side spans, so as to give
more room for maneuvering a large
ship not under absolute control. The
plans allow for a clear roadway forty
feot in width, sufficient for at least
four lines of wheel traffic, and two
outer footways, each 7 feet C inches
wide. The promoters further claim
that an overhead electric tramway can
be constructed along the center of the
road, supported on center columns in
a somewhat similar manner to the
New York elevated railway. The to
tal estimated cost of the bridge and
its approaches, including a sufficient
sum for the purchase of property and
compensation to owners, but exclusive
of additional approaches and the over
head tramway, is £1,730,000. Itls stated
that at present there is paid for the
conveyance of goods ana passengers
across the river by lighters, ferry
steamers and the tunnel, £195,000 a
year, of which £105,000 is paid for
goods traffic alone. The promoters
estimate that the income of the bridge
would be not less than £165,000 a year.
Falcons as Letter Carriers.
Falcons may be used as letter car
riers in place of homing pigeons. M.
Smokoff, a lieutenant in the Russian
army, has contributed to the Revue des
Sciences, the result of some experi
ments in training falcons to carry dis
patches. Compared with pigeons, fal
cons arc in more than one respect su
perior as carriers. A pigeon travels from
eight to ten leagues In an hour, while
a falcon, it appears, can cover fifteen
leagues in an hour, and keeps up this
rate of speed for fifteen hours at a
time. The falcon can also, of course,
be intrusted with a heavier budget.
He is less easily affected by atmos
pheric changes, encounters fewer dan
gers on the way and can rarely become
the victim of an enemy stronger than
himself.
Suicide aiicl Insanity.
An epidemic of 6uicide has prevailed
in lluda l'esth and other Hungarian
towns lately. In Buda Pesth alone
seven suicides occurred in one day
some two weeks ago. The number of
cases of insanity is also increasing so
rapidly that the hospitals and asylums
are crowded. Physicians ascribe both
phenomena to the scarcity of pure wine
since the phylloxera, in consequence
jf which the people drink a made-up
.iquid composed of substances perni
cious to the brain.

Color-Blind Cupid.
(Pittsbnrjt Commercial Gazette.)
Since the days wiien the fair Besdemona j
of Shakeipear's creation fell deeply in love
with Othello, the jealous Moore. ;t seems
to have been the custom for white women
to become enamored of colored men. In
this city the custom exists to a startling
degree, and the Freeman-Lawton tragedy
just enacted recalls the fact that in the
last twenty years the increase in this prac
tice has been very marked. In the various
low quarters of tha city, such as Jones
avenue, second avenue above Try street, in
many streets of the hill district, in the
Fifteenth ward, in the vicinity of the Black
Diamond steel works, blacks and whites
may be found mingled together at every
mm. In many cases ot this character the
black man and white woman are man and
wife, and they seem to live happily togeth
i °-
if. J. Dean, late supterintendent of the
Hmmane society, had met during his term j
of office many cases of this kind and he
says that these same exist to-day.
"Take Jones avenue, for instance, and I
you will lind white women by the scoreco" j
habiting with negroes. Some of these
women have *leit good homes and hus
bands, and even children, to Jgo and live
with men whose faces are blacker than
night. I hare known an instance of where
two handsome young white girls whos®
parents were Irish,became infatuated wi*h
coal bUck darkeys and left thair homes
anl friends to go with their dusky lovers.
"There are quite a number of white
women married to colored men ia the hill
district. One very handsome blonde is
the wife of a barber. Her husband is a
mulatto. Tuere is another family of col
ored people in this city whose father was
a tall-blooded white man. His wife was a
great, big, slovenly loosing ncgress. Af
terwards tho father committed suicide by
drowning.
"I knew another instance where a white
womam, who at present cleans offices on
Grant street, has bj_-a:ne infatuated vv-I L;i
a barber doing business in that locality.
She is a pure CaucAasiau, bat I believe she
is fast growing to look like her dusky
lover.
jt"Then there is a case of a well-known
business man of this city whoso sister mar"
ried a colored employe of the Monongahela
house. That created quite a sensation at
the time and then the brother of the woman
visited the hotel for the purpose of demand
ing satisfaction from the black brother-in
law and the later drove him from the hotel
kitchen at the point of a knife. A great
many of these miscegenations have their
origin in the large hotels. Here white
domestics and scullery maids are thrown
considerably into the company of colored
waiters, cooks, porters, etc., aDd in that
way natural attachments are formed. On
lv last week two girls were sent to Mor
ganza on account of their shameful and
disgraceful tscapdes with two negroes.
"In Allentowu, Thirty first ward, there
are three families |residing on the same
street, the head of each is a black man,
while the consorts are whito.
"A visit to the colored churche3 on any
Sunday will disclose a number of cases of
where white women have taken to them
selves dusky life partners, but ouly rarely
can a case be discovered where white men
have married colored women."
