A HERUIX'S DEATH.
William n. Isrue ) , a llioliold Recluse

Solitary tilf oof Over Twenty
Yocrs ,
Alone , in the old mansion where he
ltd lived the life of a hermit for twenty
fcais nd nirro , William Q' Isrcal , B
wealthy ri'izen of Baltimore , died Friday
light. Bo never wont out except at
light , when ho would alt on his front
anrch and g z at the stars for hours.
Jatll abant fiva yeatg ago he used to g' '
o the butcher and HIB biker dally , but
f lite he was too infirm to lotve the
louse , and hit raja'a ' were brought to him
rom a res'aur ' nt. When till wa ter took
10 pliln breakfast this mornlpg and
rnprjcd on the ivlndow-ahntter the long ,
bony bnod which wa wont t ) reach out
and grasp the food did not appear. The
waiter called n neighbor , and together
they entered the house , to fiud the olc
man dying at thnfoot of ft stairway down
which ho bad fallen. He expired in
thort time.
The secret of the hermit's life is
wrapped In myatory. For the last twenty
jo rs tbo house In which ho has lived
alone has been shut up , It hia never
been cleaned or piinted , nnd was gradual
ly falling Into decay. The hotuo was
once magnificently furnished. Das
ecvornl Inches thick covered the volvot-
cushloned furniture In the parlor and the
rosewood ballot in the dining-room. I
is said that a love affair caused the man
to become n recluse. Before bo clotec
himself in from the world the homo w&s

Fielder Iirnel , who carried on an exten
sive conveyancing business and was very
rich , The bnslnoin is still conducted by
two other sons. The hermit was 70 year
old and worth about $100,000.

DUDUQUE , Ang , 10.--A gentlem n who
has just returned from a trip through
Northern Iowa tells a very ntrango story
of the abduction cf a young girl fifteen
years old , during ho war , by n band o : '
gypsies who were camped near Shorrlll'i
Mound , a German settlement situated
ton miles north of this city. The girl ,
whom ho Is pleased to call Maggie Grdy ,
ho detcribcs as exceptionally pretty. The
gypsies were qaito a novelty , and thi
young people tn the settlement tbrongec
the camps to have a look In the mirror o ;
the future. Mnpgiu Gray wes porsuadoc
by a young man to accompany him to the
camp to have their fortunes told. This
was dona by an old , wltcbylooking
woman , who supplemented it with a cup
of liquid substance which In color resembled -
somblod wlno , but In reality waa a drug.
The young girl soon fell into a comatose
condition , from which aho did not recover
until she was In a country of which she
know nothing , not oven the locality. In
thla way aho baa passed twenty-four ycara
of her life , making no effort to escape ,
believing , as the was told by her abduct
or a , that her father had sold her to them ,
and that any attempt to cscapo would bo
futito. Three months ago she rnndo ho
oscapa from St. Joe , Bio , , to Omaha
Nob. She arrived at SnorriU'a thrco
weeks ago , and told , almost verbatim ,
the foregoing story. At the tlmo she
was spirited away her noart-brokon par
ents left Shcrrill'a and went to Dakota ,
believing ; tbat their daughter v
drowned. The daughter expected to find
them at Sherrlll' , bnt was eadly mis
taken. Over a week ago aho started , this
tlmo by rail , for the homo of ho puonto.
and , ere this can find its way to the pub
He , will bo enjoying their company.
