DOCTOR RETURNS PATIENT TO LITE
Taken Out Lifelots, Ho l? Put In Con)'
pressed Air Bsx Again and CurM) by
the Hair of the Dog That Bit Htm.
A Most Tlemarkablo Case.
Twice held to be dead by two physi
cians and without the faintest percep
tible flutter of the beart or sign of
breath, Andre Morlti, thirty-five years
old, a "sami hog" of 329 East Twenty
ninth street, New York, was "brought
back to life" by being placed under
heavy air pressure in one of the air
locks of tl* Pennsylvania tunnel at
Thirty-third street and East river re
cently. The man had turned a pale
blue from head to foot.
Marlti is a Pole, and his relatives
and many yf Mi fellow countrymen
were overcome by awe ut his recovery.
They rofused to accept the scientific
explanation of the doctors, and at the
tunnel mouth they fell to their kne?s
in prayer uml songs of thankfulness.
There was another unusual feature
to the case, in that Dr. Sears almost
fell a victim to the "bends." In his
absorption over Maritl he did not
think of the danger to himself until
the great pressure caused the telltale
singing In his ears and the rush of
blood from his nose. Sears was at
tended by the doctor attached to the
tunnel hospital.
To the man's impatience was due his
terrible experience. He neglected to
stop the full time ordered by the tun
nel physician In the varying air pres
sures, but passed almost without de
lay from the heaviest pressure to the
free air. lie should have given at
least half an hour to three locks of
diminishing pressure, but he hurried
away to his home. His brother John
followed an hour afterward and found
hfm collapsed on the floor.
Without an instant's delay John
started at top speed back to the tun
nel and took the physician there back
to the house. The two men lifted Ma
riti to a bed. and the doctor after a
quick examination exclaimed, "Why,
this man's dead."
In the hope there might be a spark
of life, however, the doctor telephoned
to Bellevuc hospital for an ambulance
to take Maritl back to the air lock.
Tea minutes afterward Dr. Sears ar
reted with an ambulance, and he at
once placed a stethoscope over the
man's heart. In a few seconds he
straightened up und said:
"He's dead."
"That's nay belief," said the other
doctor, und then the physician, still
clinging to hope, decided upon on In
jection of strychnine. Almost Imme
diately utter the injection a slight ex
halation wasobserved.
"It's ouly the air leaving the lungs
after death," aajj^ Dr. Sears, "but we'd
better hurry hlin to the air lock."
Marltl was placed on n stretcher, but
his frame was. so big it was found Im
possible to carry him through the nar
row hall Into the street, so he was
passed out through u window. It took
half a dozen men to do the work. The
ambulance was hurried to the tunnel,
and when Marltl' had been taken Into
the lock both doctors worked over him.
Additional Injections were given, but
for more than tifteen minutes there
was no sign of life.
Still the physicians persevered, and
at length another exhalation was de
tected. '.'There couldn't be a second
one and after such a trip?" asked Dr.
Sears In wonderment
"I don't think so," replied the tunnel
physician, ant. then, holding his Angers
011 the man'e pulse, he cried: "He's
nllve! His heart's lieatlng."
First there were Infrequent little
gasps, and slowly the blue color began
to go from the man's body. Gradual
ly the breath came more evenly and
stronger until with a great sigh his
breast rose and fell, slightly, but regu
larly. Dr. Sears passed through the
air locks, and when he had recovered
from the effects of the prolonged pres
sure he lnsi^ed upon returning again
to examine the patient. He was there
Ttbout a minute and had the satisfac
tion of seeing Marltl open his eyes.
Marltl was able to sit up In bed
within three hours and shortly after
ward was chafing at his detenticn In
the hospital.
Lightning as She Saw It.
While little Gertrude was looking out
of a window during a thunderstorm
she saw a flash of lightning play
along a telegraph wire.
"Oh, mamma," she exclaimed, "I
just saw a piece of the sun fall down
from the sky!"? New York Press.
