AFTER TWENTY YEARS.
A Winter Bight's Traeedy in a
Haunted House The Hideous
Dissecting Boom" The
Corpse Comjs to Life
Tinder the Torture
of the Knife.
( Fem the Onto Ktite JourniL )
One cold night in December , 1852 ,
three young medical students mot
for a purpose iu a third story , back
room , of an unoccupied brick dwell
ing house , located on Market street ,
Louisville , Ky. The building had
been vacated for nearly a , year , and
had the reputation of being haunt
ed.Vhac gave rise to that evil re
port will appear in ttie course of this
narrative. The students were in
the year of their studies that bring
them their longed for diplomas , and
aa they sat in this room drinking
from a bowl of hot punch that had
been carefully prepared by one of
their number , they canvassed the
many eventful incidents of their
course at college , and speculated
upon what the future had in store
for them. The castles they built in
the air were of the most brilliant
description , and
A KNOCK AT THE STREET DOOB
that brought forth an echo from
cellar to garret of the dismal , cob
web-lined building that failed to
draw their attention.
It was repeated , and with a joyful
of "There's Jack "
cry Limpy , ac
companied by a step on the hall
that emphasized the remark , one of
their number called his comrades'
attention to the circumstance. They
appeared to know the signal and to
anticipate no further repetition , as
they hurriedly left the room and
went down stairs , one of the trio
leading the way with a lighted can
dle in his hand. On reaching the
ground floor they did not go to the
front door , but with one accord
passed into what had once been the
dining-room of the families who
had occupied the house. Here they
found a door that led to the cellar.
Opening this door they descended
in the same order. The cellar was
damp and noisome , and was a place
only fit now as a habitation for the
vermin that warmed it. Picking
their way cautioasly , stepping from
plank to plank of the loose flooring
that covered the earth , and causing
muddy water to ooze above the
boards at every step , they at last
reached an object that appeared to
be nothing more than a sack of po
tatoes. Upon lifting the sack , how
ever , the head and shoulders of
A HUMAN SKELETON
emerged from it , and fell to the
ground. Eeversing the sack in
stantly , in which operation hit com
rades assisted , the man who held it
seized the mouth and drew it to
gether , after which -he threw the
canvass over his shoulder , and fol
lowed in the wake of the man with
the tallow dip , while the third man
of the party came last , and steadied
the gastly burden upon the shoulders
of his laboring companions. In
this order , and without a word , the
party carefully traversed the cellar ,
and ascended the steps leading to
the deserted dining-room. Here
they halted to readjust the load that
weighed heavily upon the man who
bore it , but the journey was imme
diately renewed , and in a few mo
ments the party were back again
In the comfortable room that they
tiad left.
The room was comfortable by
3omparison with the other depart
ments of the deserted dwelling. A
ivarra coal fire was burning in a
aearth of large dimensions , and the
) dor of the punch wa very agreea-
) Ie to the "senses. But whatever
jomfort a non-professional mail
vould have derived from spending
i portion of a gloomy winter's night
n such a room , the feeling would
lave speedily changed to one of hor-
or upon beholding the surrouud-
ngs. The room was filled on three
ides with glass cases , some con-
ainlng from three to sis tiers of
ihelving , and others being free of
bstruction in the space from top to
wttom. There were eighteen of
hese cases. Each of these with
inelves in them contained
HUMAN SKULLS AND BONES
hat had been taken from the bodies
if which they had formed a part ,
ind there were also a large number
if specimens preserved in bottles
illed with alcohol. The heart ,
irain , liver , etc. , were in this man-
icr exhibited and kept In then nat-
iral state. Others of these cases
ontained medicines and instru-
nents used by medical men. The
ases that were not shelved con-
aincd full-grown skeletons of men ,
fomen and children strung upon
rlres. In the center of the room
ras a table about ten feet la length ,
nd raised about two feet off the
round. It was covered with black
il-cloth , and ono pnd of it was
aised for the purpose of affording
resting place to the heads of
orpses laid upon this , the disseot-
ag table.
Upon re-entering the room the
tudents lost little time in proceed-
ag about their work. It was not
novelty by any means that they
. ere about to enter upon , and yet
hey ono and all manifested the
eenest delight in the Job. The
ack was laid upon the table , loos-
ned , and pulled away , revealing
be body of a man perhaps fifty
ears of ago. He had been tall of
tature and of great muscular de-
clopment. ? jo marks of violence
rcre to be seen about the corpse as
t lay stark naked upon the death-
loth , and the face bore a pleasant
xpression , as if the passage from
ife had been accomplished without
iain or vain regret. After placing
he body in a proper position , with
be head upon the raised elevation ,
be students divested themselves of
oats and tjats , rolled up their shirt-
leves and fastened them above the
Ibow , and adjusted clean-looking
lotbs , reaching to their waists ,
bout their necks. They then
rought forth from under one of the
lass cases a cedar-wood box about
ne foot in width by two. feet In
mgtb. From this box about
DOZEN LAIMJEGLEAlHNa INSTRU.
O
. Ic
icluding knives and aws , were
reduced and laid upon a chair plo-
ed within reaching distance of the
ible.
'I we'll find out
guess now if old
ake Hinghaus was crazy or not
rhen ho made that will , " said one
f the students ; to which another
? plied :
"Yes , indeed , we will. It's no
real interest to us ; but if there is
oiug to be a fight over that ten
lousand dollars of his , there will
9 some satisfaction in knowing for
urselves whether his real wife is
atitled to it , r whether it should
o to the children of his mistress , aa
e willed it. Do you know what the
ouble was between-him andhia
ife ? "
This , remark being addressed to
le third member of the party , he
nswered :
"I know no more than any one.
[ inghaus was a queer old Butch-
ion , and would have his tod. In
ict , that's what killed him , as we
11 know of course. Well , it's my
pinion that his will was made very
recently , and the money left to his
'old gal's' children , because his wife
was 'given to quarreling with him
about his drinking. "
"Well , anyhow , we'll satisfy our
selves to-night about that crazy
story. For my part , I believe he
was as sane when he made his will
as any of us , and I'll bet mousy
we'll find the cause of his acting BO
strange the last few weeks was
liquor on the brain , and nothing
else. "
These remarks from the first
speaker closed the conversation ,
The men approached the table. One
of them , who seemed to be silently
delegated.to perform the operation ,
held in his hand
A GLITTERING KNIFE.
The others caught the corpse by
the shoulders and raised it to a sit
ting position. One of them held it
there. The man with the knife be
gan to cut at the base of the skull
and around it The other , placing
his fingers on the bloody opening
thus formed , pushed them forward.
The knife cut clean , and in an in
stant the scalp was thrown forward
upon the face , exposing the bald
skull beapatered with blood.
At this instant a tremor passed
through the comae ; a second and a
third succeeded ;
A WILD SHRIEK
followed ; and with a cry of most
soul-curdling agony , the supposed
dead man leaped from the table.
The students , affrighted to death ,
could only hurdle iu a corner and
gaze at the apparition. Shriek after
shriek followed , and the sufferer
tore the bleeding scalp from before
his eyes and gazed about him with
frothing mouthy and looks of de
moniacal ferocity. When his eyes
at last rested upon the students , he
uttered a shriek irore appalling than
its predecessors , and rushed upon
them. He seizud upon the one who
had held his body in position ; with
a grip of iron he clutched his throat ,
and with a giant's power bore him
to tbe floor.
It was a question of life for the
students or death for their assailant.
The man who had the knife realized
thesituation upon theinstantleaned
forward and plunged the knife to
the hilt in the heart of the unfortu
nate wretch. With a horrible cry
he sank down upon the body of the
half strangled student , and in an
instant a cold shiver that convulsed
his frame , told that indeed he was a
dead man. Now that the deed was
done , the students looked at one an
other as if one and all were stupi-
ged. Then , with the bloody knife
above his head , the man who had
committed the act called upon his
companions to swear
AN OATH OF ETERNAL SECRECY
then and there. With their left
hands elapsed together , and their
right hands on high , the three men
swore eternal fidelity to each other
in the great and damning secret
that must forever darken their ca
reer. This done , the body was again
wrapped up in a sack. A large sup
ply of combustible materials was
then aoucentrated in the room and
the torch applied. Ere the flames
had time to spread , the guilty men
were on their way homeward.
The fire did its work effectually in
destroying all the evidence of the [
crime. There were no living wit
nesses save the three participants.
One of these ( Alfred Burgess ) was
killed at the battle of Pittsburg
Landingwhile serving as a surgeon
in the Union army ; Robert Craw
ford , the man whose steady right
arm had driven home that weapon
of death , was killed upon an Illi
nois railroad inr July 1869 , and Or
son Holmes , the last aotor in the
drama , died but a few days ago in
Parsons , Kansas. It Is frem a little
weekly paper , published in that
place , that his confession , giving all
the details of the horrible affair as
related above was obtained.
A Mule Willing to Go ,
[ LouUTille Courlcr-Journa1. ]
A bad little boy in Portland lit a
lack of shooting-crackersy and
hrew them " into the street to see
hem ' 'go off. " One of Ike Bate-
nan's mules came along and swal-
owed them before they "went off. "
fhe mule walked about fifteen feet

ight inside. He began to taste the
imoke of fire-crackers. He laid his
eft ear around against his ribs , and
icard something. It was them
irackers having fun. The mule
licked out about three and a half
uiles of straight road and started.
V negro met him about a mile the
itbcr side of the alms-hou , going
outh , white with perspiration , with
treams of smoke shooting out of
lis nostrils , mouth and ears , while D

Frazier's Hoot Bitters ,
tlio ( ireat Blood and
Humor Remedy.
[ From the Cleveland Sunday Morning Voice ]
That Frazier't RootBitters possess an efficacy
greatly superior to any other preparation for
searching the blood with which we are acquain
ted , e can testify from actual observation. We
know many instances where Individuals for
yemrs afflicted , have been permanently restored
to health by their use. Mr. Frazier , the pro
prietor , is a resid'Dtof this city , and is wlJely
known ss one of oar most prominent bustnrij
men. His references to tbe great value of his
Boot Bitten. Are also persons well-known as
citizens of standing and integrity , in whose
statements implicit confidence iuay be placed ,
ted their testimony mayba taken as conclu
sive erldence of the estimation in which Mr.
Frazler's remedy is held , particularly at home.
Hera it has alnady atuined'that positian that
requires no recommendation , having stood the
teat of trial here. We can say with safety , and
do recommend with entire confidence , its use
elsewhere , by all who may be afflicted wifb
any kind of weakness or humor in the blood
as the most searching , strengthening and heal
ing remedy of which we have -any knowkdg
Sold by druggists and at country stores.

I have been an invalid for over thirteen

of my eyes wis the color of saflron ; I was si f py
and heavy , with headache and no appetite for
food of any kind , I was afflicted as bad as any
living woman rould be. I took bottle alter
bottle of patent medicines , end paid over seven
hundred dollars to the best physicians without
any benefit. I suffered more than I can tel ! you
by letter , hut could get no relief until about
two months ago I purchased a bottle of your
Boot Bitters from Louis Smithnight , druggist ,
13C Woodland Av. , this city. I used thlslo'-
tle up , and ilntc then have nsnl nearly two
more , and they are the only positive , sure cure
for liver and dyspepsia complaint I have ever
tried ; they have cured me completely , and to
day 1 am as heilthy as any person can be.
You may use my name , if you see propper. as
it may be the means of inducing otbers to try
yourdiseovcry and be cured , for coed health 19
better than gold. Ever your friend , M1W.

MR. FBAZIKK I wish to inform you , what
pour medrcine has done for me. I was afflicted
with Catarrh in its worst forms for many years ,
f tried various medicines recommended by
Physicians , which proved but a tempoary re
lief. By tie advice of a lady who was cured
j this same disease by your Tloot Bitters , 1
procured one half dozen lx > Ulca and they have
iccomplished a perfect cure In my case. B -
lievlng that thousands are dragged out of a
miserable existence from the eflect of Catarrh.
[ cheerfully recommend your Root BlUcrs to
ill -who are similarly aOected.
