FOUND DEAD IN 1 SALOON. Collins "Went toj Sleep Aever Awakened. and William Collin was found dead In the Park Lobby saloon, at Washington street and Capitol avenue, about 8:30 o'clock last night. He had been drinking In the aaloon during the afternoon, and was found on the floor of the lavatory about o'clock by the bartender. Supposing that Collins was asleep, be and the porter carried the sleeping man.

Into a little room to let him sleep undisturbed. It was thought to be time to awaken him, and at 8:30 o'clock, 'when an effort was made to do this, his body was rigid. Deputy Coroner Dodds was called, and the body was taken to Tutewller's morgue. Dr. Dodds was not able to determine the cause of death last night.

and decided to continue his investigation this morning. Some bruises were found upon the dead man's head, but these, the deputy coroner thinks, were made by his fall to the floor. Collin had suffered much of late, his relatives say, with stomach trouble, and It was said by others that he took morphine to quiet the pain. There was no evidence, however, that morphine had anything to with his' death. He was thirty seven years old.

and was the son of R. K. Col lins, an old soldier well known In the eastern part of the city. The dead man was employed by his brother in the pool room of his Washington street and State avenue. His brothers said that William had not been drinking any Inoe August last.

The Plant Has Be en Knowm to the Chia and lte by Them for dleinal Purposes for Cn tnrlew Hoiv It Is Raised. ICorrespondence of The, Indianapolis Seymour. In.1. February 28. GinKeng.

the root of a ppecles of panax In th natural order of Ariltaoece. 1 a very celebrated fWnew medicine plant." highly prixed the "coolies' for its "traditional supernatural influence on the human system in preventing plague, restoring lost vtrilrty and prolonging life. The plant has been known and used tn that country for cen turies, and its culture and sale are mai lers of government control. Americaa gmseng. the panax quLnquefohum of Linrweus, was first discovered by the I whites.

ar.d Its close reeembtance to th Chinese plant in appearance and qualities was revealed to them hi 1718. Its use as a euiwtitute for the foreign product dates from about that time. Indiana, knew the plant, but the "medi cine men'" thought It was a useless weed phy FiciaTM of this country consider of no value for medical uses, and It only the "Celestial" empire that it is re garded as a panacea for all human Ills. There, as here. It Is a characteristic of the tuber of this plant to assume tn shape a Very close resemblance to the Truarsan figure, and for that reason, probably the Chinese call It "man root.

The steady demand and the very hign prices paid for the dried product China varyinfr from 86 an ounce upward, ac cord lag to the size, shape and firmness of the root has fixed Its position as an Important arrtoie of commerce, and the annual exports tn recent years have exceeded lOOO.OOO pounds The home market for export purposes very soon became so good that "sang dlgirtog" cam to be a constant and profitable industry A GINSENG, THE "MAN tn the heavtiy timbered regions of Hum country, and the "sang diggers formed a dtettnet and numerous class. With the disappearance xrt the great forest, the supply of tho natural product ha been rapidly exhausted, and these people find thieir occupation almost gone. i Very recently the cultivation of the plaint has received sufflcvaot attentXsn tn thd locality to demonstrate that. It can be carried on with ease and profil, and now there as to be a "sang" Last yeea. Leonard Hlbner, who owns a tract of 160 acre of timbered Jand near Bey mour.

began the experiment by transrJtenttng 1,200 roots end ptantlnr IS. 000 seeds. His venture waa a success. This ecaSdn he will plant another acre. and his ultimate purpose and plan 1 to devvvte hie entire land to this culture.

The rich soil of a dense hardwood for est is the natural home of this tender plant, which can not endure the summer sunshine. It makes Its appearance the late spring season, and Its develop ment Is rapid. When fully expanded it is a beautiful plant, with small, white. Inodorous flowers. At three years old It from eight to twelve Inches high and from three so nv leaves, rising on long foot stalks from the top or tne main stem.

Each leaf Is composed of flv leaflets, the longest forming tne point of the leaf. The flower head grows on a. snort stem rising irom tne axis i the leaves, and the bloom appear in Juiv. The fruit, a scarlet berry, one eighth of an inch In diameter, ripens in Kentemher. and three round, hard seeds are Imbedded In Its fleshy pulp.

All the nlant above ground dies after the first sharp autumnal frost. In cultivation, to nlant nna acre reo ires 40.000 seeds, cost ing $85. After germinating the plant has very tardy growth, and from live to hevi vears are reauired for it to ma ture. When matured each healthy root will weigh from one half ounce to three ounces; to be 01 roaraeiaoie vaiue wen should weigh two ounces. The best quality Is found when properly dried in hard, brittle, translucent, resinous pieces about the size of the little Anger and from two to four inches, long.

It sweetish, eflightly bltterj mucilaginous and aromatic i The plants are set ten Inches apart, with a space of twelve Inches between each row. and where there is no forest had they are sheltered by movable GINSENG FOLIAGE AND 1 BERRIES. frame covers. The seeds are planted as soon as they are gathered two inches deep in beds of loamy soil, enriched by natural and in dry seasons they roust be well watered, as In growing the evaporation of moisture Is very rapid, It requires about eighteen months or tie seeds to germinate they can neither be forced nor coaxed and at the close of the first season after sprouting the seedling will have one small leaf, and. If healthy, if will bear seed of Its own fn three years.

The roots are gath ered after the fruit has ripened. This work Is done with great care. The flesh Is juicy and tender, and they must be taken out whole. The adhering soil ia removed with a brush, as cleansing with water retards the drying and renders the roots spongy and of less value in the market. They are best wben dried In the open sunshine, but for this purpose artificial heat may be applied.

The older the plant, the better the quality of the root is reckoned to be for medicinal use. JOHN AULD FORSTTHE. a Mrs. Kraaees Knntsler Paroled. Governor Mount has paroled Mrs.

I Every Biblical scholar knowa that thl Hebrew account of the detug found fn uy. i wo aoy lonlaa a croon ts one that of Beroaus, a Babylonian hlstorUn. whose narrative hA been bxeded down to u' by early Or Christian writers, and th other ttisU fouid on Assyrian tablet by Georgo Smith. BjOth resemble, and yet both differ from the Genesis storr. Biblical critic hav differed as to th ag of thr Biblical story, th mor consenratlT holding that, being written by Mose.

Inclined th. bellev that the story wa borrowed from Nineveh or Babylon at the time of the captivity, or not long before it, at which tlm th Book of Gn esis was written. Th dloccvery by George Smith of full poetical account of the delug. on tablets In King Assurbanlpal'a library gt'V Nineveh, wa of Immense intarret; but It did not assure us of the sge of the delug story amcng th Inhabitants of ue Eupnratea valley; for it was on tablet written in 'Assurbanlpal' reign.

tat is scarce tlx hundred betor Chrlrt. To be euro, these wera said te.be copied from tablets In Babylonian libraries, but we did not know how. old tha original tablets were. Beside, th delug story was on the eleventh tablet in a long poem, compiled In twelve books, one for each mot th.

To be sure." the record oa th tablet I doe sot. amount to much, it 1 such a fragmentary bit: but It I large enough to make sure that the tablet contained the story of, the deluge', and. most fort 4. nnately, tho most Important part of all ia preserved the colophon with th dat. It ia dated In th.

That ts enough to make th discovery memorable. We learn positively that the story of ther deluge was familiar to the common neo pie of Babylonia, and, therefore, of all th East, from Syria to Persia.

cars ana accuracy with which tha document wa preaerved from generitlon to generation, with "no change even In the form of a single word." This is not the fact. Thi Is aft entirely different redaction. and Per Schell suggests that different cities would hav their different poetical edition of the story. This fragment belongs to the story current at Bippara, where tb frag ment was found, and we may suppose that th account given by Berosua was also from th Bippara edition, for Be rosus tells us that Xlsythru (Noah), be fore th flocd. buried In Bippara the rec orda of the world' antediluvian history.

The cuneiform account discovered by Georg Smith seems to have originated, In the city or sunppax; at any rate. ire Noah of that story cam from 8urippak.
