LULLABY.
Close your eyes, baby, darting,
Like a bird's claws over skins of birds!
All unseen the holy angels
Keep their watch, dear, over you.
To his coach in golden spangles
Slinks at him, the summer sun;
While the twilight, soft and tender,
This day is done!
Lullaby! sleep and rest,
Oradied on this faithful breast!
Safe from life's storms, fierce and wild,
Sleep and rest, my little child!
Lullaby!
Like a bird, that, tired of roaming,
Becks at eve its downy nest,
So my birdling, in the glooming,
Swetly always upon my breast!
Off to dream land baby's grin—
Number's silken nails unfurried—
While night winds are softly blowing
Over the silent world!
Lullaby! sleep and rest,
Oradied on this faithful breast!
Safe from life's storms, fierce and wild,
Sleep and rest, my little child!
Lullaby!

A MODERN SAMSON.
BREAKING STEEL CABLES AS F.
THEY WERE COTTON THREADS.
Though He Spells His Name Differently
His Feats of Strength Are Almost as
Wonderful as Those of the Man of Olden
Times.
When James Wilson, the expansionist, was
described in these columns a few weeks ago
it was believed by the medical fraternity and
by all who saw Mr. Wilson in his wonderful
performances that no other man on the face of
the earth possessed such strength. But The
Evening Sun's freak hunter has been prowing about town for a fortnight, seeking a
parallel for Wilson, and yesterday found
him. The new man's name is Charles H.
Sampson. He is 30 years of age, of medium
build and height, not a man who would be
picked out as a giant in strength, but a
quiet, ordinary looking person.
Mr. Wilson broke great trunk straps one
at a time. Mr. Sampson breaks three of the
same straps at once. Mr. Wilson broke nine
steel wire cables of eight strands each, with the
power of his chest. Mr. Sampson broke in the
presence of the reporter 125 thicknesses of the
same steel wire cable, or, in all, 1,000 strands.
He went still further and broke a steel trace
chain, such as are in use on truck harness,
fastening it about his chest and bursting its
links like so much glass. The same chain,
link by link, be deliberately pulls in two
with his hands. Gas pipe an inch in diameter
be bends into elbows by striking the length
of the pipe across his left arm. He has successfully pulled in tug of war against twelve

Mr. Wilson broke great trunk straps one at a time. Mr. Sampson breaks three of the same straps at once. Mr. Wilson broke nine steel wire cables offight strands each, with the power of his chest. Mr. Sampson broke in the presence of the reporter 125 thicknesses of the same steel wire cable, or, in all, 1,000 strands. He went still further and broke a steel trace chain, such as are in use on truck harness, fastening it about his chest and bursting its links like so much glass. The same chain, link by link, he deliberately pulls in two with his hands. Gas pipe an inch in diameter he bends into elbows by striking the length of the pipe across his left arm. He has successfully pulled in tug of war against twelve strong men.
The reporter obtained an interview with Mr. Sampson in a private room in an uptown residence. The name of the man is at once looked upon as an assumed one, for the very reason that it fits his profession so well. Nevertheless his true name is Sampson.
Charles G. Sampson was born on the 16th of April, 1859, in Baden, Germany, and is therefore almost 30 years of age. He came to America only a short time since, after having traveled all over Europe exhibiting his strength.
SNAPTING THE STEEL CHAIN.
Selecting a piece of steel chain about three feet long, Mr. Sampson forced open one of the links and formed a ring of the chain, just large enough to fit over the biceps muscle of the arm. A second chain was formed in the same manner and carefully fitted. When the arm was allowed to hang loosely at the side, these chains were found to fit snugly about the biceps. Then Mr. Sampson's fingers began to twitch and close spasmodically, the muscles and tendons of his arm slowly swelled and increased in size, his forearm was carefully carried upward and as the elbow crooked the strain upon the chains became tremendous. The arm was further bent, when there was a sharp snap, a piece of each chain flow to the ceiling, and the chains dropped to the floor, broken squarely two. There was no "fake" about it. It was a genuine feat in strength, which no other man, so far as is known, has ever accomplished. The chain is made from steel, three sixteenth of an inch thick, and formed in double links an inch and a half long. The tensile strength is estimated at about 4,000 pounds. Mr. Sampson says it does not inconvenience him in the least to break them, and he apparently does it with as much ease as if bending his arm with nothing on it at all.
Taking up a roll of the small steel wire cable previously referred to, Mr. Sampson made a belt of it, containing 125 lengths of the cable, which he wrapped around his chest. "I don't propose to break this cable by expansion," he said, "for I have but very little chest expansion. You will notice, however, that the muscles in my back and sides are wonderfully developed. By swelling them up I accomplish the same result Mr. Wilson does with his wonderful lungs." A quick twist of his body, a sudden swelling of all the muscles of his chest, back and shoulders, a strain on the cable and it parted with a metallic snap, in less than three seconds from the time be began.
A CONTEST WITH FOURTEEN MEN.
"In St. Petersburg," said Mr. Sampson, "I had a large ring made from inch iron. The ring was 8 feet in diameter. I stood in the middle of it and fourteen strong men bad hold of the ring. They tried to push me or move me out of a certain limit marked on the floor, but could not. I can and will withstand the combined strength of any eight men you have in this city, not barring Sullivan, Mitchell, or any one else."
In 1878 Mr. Sampson started on a tour of the continent and was seen by many royal patrons of manly sport. He has received
of all the muscles of his chest, back and shoulders, a strain on the cable and it parted with a metallic snap, in less than three seconds from the time he began.

In 1878 Mr. Sampson started on a tour of the continent and was seen by many royal patrons of manly sport. He has received fifty-one decorations and medals for his prowess, of which forty-eight are from royal donors. Some of them are magnificent specimens of fine handiwork on gold.
On Aug. 10, 1878, Mr. Sampson engaged to alay a steer with his fist. The feat was performed with a single blow in the presence of Emperor Wilhelm and Emperor Francis Joseph. He wears a handsome decoration commemorating that event.
This feat of skill and strength was repeated at Ems, Germany; St. Petersburg and Paris, Mr. Sampson striking but a single blow upon each of the occasions except the last. In this case the steer was running and his aim was not true, but the first blow knocked the animal down and a second crushed its skull. During his professional experience this Hercules has suffered broken arms no less than seventeen times. He does not attribute his great strength to any freak of nature, but says it is the result of careful training and exercise. He has already been seen in public in this city, and is the wonder of all who see him.—New York Evening Sun.
How to Filteo Tattoo Marks.
Europeans who have been foolish enough, either in youth or age, to tattoo themselves like PIS LANDER, Patagonian, or any other race of pictureque savage, may be interested to hear that Dr. Variot, of Paris, has discovered a simple but effective method of removing red or blue pictorial designs from the human skin. M. Variot has embodied the results of his experiments in an elaborate treatise on tattooing in ancient and modern times, which has been sent to the Paris Biological society. Further, the doctor has experimented on prisoners in the Central Infirmary, to which he is attached, and on hospital patients, all of whom have, of course, offered themselves voluntarily for the operations.
M. Variot has also tested the efficaciousness of his method in removing black or brown hairy spots or moles from the skin of animals, and has found it instantly successful. His modern apparatus is to print the marks or spots with sandpaper until the blood flows then to inject titanium, and finally to sterilize with nitrate of silver. Very little intervention is felt by the person commanded to wear it, unless it becomes too small or so the parts which have been treated are almost invisible without the addition of another powder.
