A VOUDDU QUEEN.
Hours Spent Near tlio Old Aroli
in Thompson Street ,
How the Queen Wna Found
A Remarkable Rooster
Witch Padlooke ,
New York Sun.
In the vicinity of the arch , lu
Thompson street , where whitewashing
and kalsomlnlng signs and dirty picka
ninnies are abundant , wo made Icqnl-
rlosfora vondou witch. The whole
batch of plckanlnlcs volubly shrieked
the desired Information , Wo outarod
a blind alley , and ascended the rickety
steps of a whitewashed houso. Push
ing open the front door , the odor of
fried ham and eggs , mingled with the
moro pnugent smells nt onions and
boiled cabbage , was Rtnolt. Ollmblug
a flight of dirty stairs wo knocked at a
rear door on the second floor. It waa
opened by n colored woman , certainly
the largest female , either white or
black , over scon outside cf a dhow.
Sbo asked what was wanted. She was
ever six foot In height , and broad in
proportion. On her head was a
bright-colored kcrchiof tied at the top ,
the ends sticking out like a pair of
horoo. Acrosa her ample shoulders
was spread another kerchief of a moro
brilliant hue , fastened at the throat
by a brooch of fantastic design repre
senting two yellow serpents playing
tag among green hieroglyphics on n
rod ground. Her fingers were covered
with rings. She had aa many as throe
or fonr on each finger , the thumbs
even not being neglected. By actual
count the number waa thirty-seven.
Of what material thoao rings wore
made It would bo diflionlt to say , but
in color they wore whlto , yellow and
rod , apparently silver , gold and cellu
loid. Ono this information was
afterward imparted and received with
becoming awe and reverence was
made out of throe screws stolen from
a cofliu dug up at midnight. Its occult
properties were ao mysterious and fir
reaching that it could only be men
tioned with bated breath.
The room was clean and compara
tively tidy. A largo black cat aat
purring by a highly polished cooking
atove , on which a savory smelling
stew waa simmering. On the walls
hung many mystic signs , the only one
intelligible to the 'unltlatod being
"Abracadabra. " This was enclosed In
a largo gilt piaster of Paris frame , and
arranged In the form of an Inverted
pyramid , thus :

A atnflod owl with distended wings
engaged In the cheerful occupation of
disemboweling a rat , whose llto'a gore
was startliugly depleted , stood upon a
bracket , and a live rooeter In the last
stages of melancholy wai in the cage
on a table near the window , making
abortive efforts to keep dp his tplrlts
by crowing dismally.AivtvmbiVir.tiB
attempt to conceal the presence of a
bed WHI made by straight strips of
calico hanging from the ceiling.
"Aro yon a fortune telleil" was
asked differentially.
"Inebbersald I were , sah , " was
the cautions response.
"Well , the case la just this My
wlfn has lost some valuable jewelry
diamond earrings. I have heard oi
your great reputation , ' BO have called
an yon for assistance. Can yon help
m'eT to find them ? "
"I'so no fortune teller , sab ; I'so a
Hoodoo. "
Tho'neooisary apologies were made.
_ J"An mor'obor , Bah , I'so oooustdm'd
to references. Who reforensbnated
yon to me ? "
Fdr a moment the searcher after in
formation hesitated. Every name
but that of the P.rlncess Louise seemed
to fade from his mind ; so at a venture
he replied "Mrs. Louise Campbell , '
dovontly hoping , as that lady waa It
Bermuda , she wonld not hear of the
unwarranted use of her name.
"A dark complected lady ? "
"Yes , ma'am. "
"An * lives in Twenty-fourth street1 ?
"Eiactly , " with a gasp of relief thai
the reference should bo so satisfactory ,
After this everything progressed
smoothly until the charge three del
lara wai objected to , it being mildly
hinted that a colored lady In Grosbj
street wonld Impart the desired Infer
matlon for one dollar. In an inatanl
all suavity waa swept aside and furj
reigned instead. She bogged it to be
understood that she waa no "oommor
Nor' Korollna nigger , but a ginovinc
Hoodoo from Lawsanna. "
When three hundred pounds ol
human flesh Is prancing about a small
room , not [ quite twelve 'feet square ,
something has to be done , and thai
quickly , If the onlooker wishes tc
keep his own body Intact. Apologies ,
If not sincere , were at least given with
great earnestness , and the depositing
if three dollars on the table seemed tc
baye a mollifying effect , She swept
the money up in ono of her wild
rashes , and It was seen no moro. Her
mind soon became tranquil enoogh tc
resume business and ask questions.
No ono waa ( inspected , so it wae
impossible to say whether the thlol
waa dork or fair. It might bo a
woman , perhaps a man , mayhap a
child , Anyway the earrings were
gono.
"Dah's a good deal ob difficulty lc
dU yero case , " said the sooress. After <
tor much pursing of lips and knitting
of brow , she went to a corner and got
a roll of canvass , which she opened
and fastened to the floor. It wai
about fonr feet square. On it twc
circles were drawn , an Inner and at
outer ono , with figures resembling the
signs cf the Zodiac printed botweet
them. Stopping In the center of thii
oanvus she , began to gyrate , slowly al
first , then faster and faster , until K
madf ) mo dizzy to look at her , keep
IngcOp meanwhile a low , monotonoui
chant of unintelligible gibbering. Al

She fell in a heap with a heavy thud
that shook the building to its founttn *

utter a cluck of dismay , She waa still
within the magic circle , however.
[ Musing nil assistance , nud nhrloklcg ,
"Kwp oway dnh , keep away , or yorHl

the canvass , clutching convul lvcly
with her loft hand ouo of the printed
iguros.
After a while , when' she hod some
what recovered her breath , aho said
pantlugly : "I dnn'nodUsackly woddor
It's a man or a woman , it kind o' bod-
dors mo. But I knowa do fiut letter

"Yon do ? "
"Yoo. It oommoncna wid a V.

Turning ever In hla mind all the
names ho know commencing with a

lug with Venuor , and not. being able ,
conscientiously , to charge thorn with

"Hat aho will know , " was the posl-
Ivo niipotiBo , and the Borcotcss gave
uiimiatakablo indlciliono tlmt aho
thought enough had been given for the
nv-noy.
Before my departure the "Lowaimna
Hoodoo" expatiated forcibly and at
; ro t length upon the woudotfnl pow.
; rs of a etone , resembling veiy much
an eye ator.c , which aho picked out of
a tin box taken from her pocket. The
ncky possofsor wonld bo given what-
> vcr ho or she wished , no matter what.
: t was procured by purloining n ship's
cat a ship that had actually boon to
oa ; no lake vessel v onld do , She out
off its head , and it was danndcd of its
losh by auto. The atone was found
embedded in the skull. Ito virtues
were never known to fail The price
was the ridiculously low Bum of $ o
The following day she waa much sur
prised at the non-discovery of the
hltf , and aho told many reminiscences
of her pist successes. The vast amount
of wealth returned to its lawful owners
ors was wonderful , and the number of
rrlng and fugitive children returned
o the right path by her anpornatural
cfluoucos was marvellous. Another
rial must bo essayed , an entirely now
one , for which she would only charge
ouo dollar. This was agreed to.
Twenty-Biz carda were laid upon
ho floor , each bearing a.lotter of the
alphabet. , Upon every ono of those-
otters was placed a single grain of
oed. The rooster was released from
its confinement , and he began to peck
with the greatest avidity. As soon PI
ouo uraln wei gobbled it wrs immedi
ately replaced by another , for a stml-
ar letter may ooaur twice in the same
namo. Decidedly the rooster was not
a SUCCOSD , but ho undoubted had a re
markably fine food. He could not
lick out a proper combination to spell
mything. Atlnat , of tor much dux tor-
om manipulation by hi * mlatrure , ho
oulootod au oat from a J , an 0 , au R ,

This last , it wa allugoo , was novoi
known to disappoint. Evou the aatis-
faction to get rqaaru with the thief ,
for the paltry chwrge 6f fifty cents and
an onion , was refused. All that wai
necessary was to stick an onion full ol

As the twilight wan deepening Into
the darker shades of night , a reporter
for the Stnr stood at the corner of
Madison avenue and Thirty-sixth
etroot a few oveulnga ago to witness
the Buddou tranaforuiatlou from Glm-
orlon darkness to noonday brilliancy
in the palatial residence to J. Plerpout
Morgan , the well known niombor of
the banking firm of Dcoxol , Morgan
& Oo. Weary of waiting for the up
town oloctrlo lighting district to bo
laid out and circled with wlroa to bo
connected with uptown residences ,
Mr. Morgan gave the first order for an
Kvllson loolatud plant among the man-
ntons of the mllllonalroa who inhabit
Fifth , Madison and Lmington
avenues , The plant la for 20 ! ) A and
110 B lumps , or a total numbur of 385
burner * . In n twlnklinp , aa if by
magic , from every window in the
drolling , a flood of mellow light that
gave the appoarauoo of a general il
lumination. The Star man waa ro-
oelvud kindly by-Mr. Morgan , na he
entered the mansion , and the myster
ious illumination waa explained to bo
the perfection of electric lighting.
"I have ubaudonod the uao of gas , "
said Mr. Morgan , ' 'with the oxcnp-
tlonof a'fow jots at various points for
use when the ulootrfo light engines are
not working. The dilbront lamp cir
cuits thronghout the honao nro pro-
tooted by the usual Edison oafoty
guards against fire , while Bwltohea ,
uaoh designed to control a largo num
ber of lampn , are conveniently
arranged In the different rooms , ao
that the HghlB can bo turned on and
off in quantity , In addition to each
lamp , being lighted or extinguished
separately. "
' Your nonao must have boon
thoroughly wired , " said the reporter.
"Yea , " waa the anawor , "in every
portion of the house and stables. "
"How are the lighta distributed ! "
"They are distributed in the follow
ing order : "Main halls and stairway ,

After contrautlng tlio Morgan man-
ion with ita moro dimly-lighted sur-
'oundlngn , and admiring the simplloi-
, y of mechanlHtn which controlled the
ilectrlo force , the leporter called upon
