Reminiscence of Salem Witchcraft ,
Boston traveler : Tlio homestead es
tate of the Into Orin Putnam , of Dan-
vors , IB to bo sold ntpublle nuctlon. The
c&tnto is of mueli historical lntorcstHnu
upon it is the Ucbecca Nourso house ,
famous in the annuls of witohcralt , and
whence Rebecca Noureo was taken to
Gallows Hill in Salem and hanged , Jnly
19,1092. A suggestion was made n year
or two ape that the town should pur
chase the estate for park purposes , and
a letter of approval of the project was
written by the poet \VhitUor. Thd
proposition , however , was not enter
tained , as the orico asked was consld *
crcd to high.-
The Coming Illusion.
Irttidon News : A lady will , wo are
told , soon appear in London , who is an
apparition at first , afterward a solld.pal-
pablo , and oven a somewhat fat lady ;
thru she retires from her fat and her
solidity and dissolves into airy nothing
ness. In the center of the exhibition
room a globe will appear withoutappar-
ontly , anything suspending it or sup
porting it. From that globe , after the
mystic words have been spoken , to the
accompaniment of weird music , a female
form will bo seen to emerge ( draped ) ,
but hardly recognizable , so vapory will
she bo. Then she will gradually solidify -
' ify , nourished on nothing ( a much do-
Blrod attainment in those hard times ) ,
and after smilingly , but speechlesslyin-
torvlowing the public , will gradually
become vapory , and retire finally to her
residence in the hanging globe.
Turned to Stone.
An Augusta ( Ga. ) special to the At
lanta Constitution says : A most sin
gular discovery was nindo in the Au
gusta cemetery to-day. In accordance
with instructions received from mem
bers of the family , the remains of S. G.
Glllott wore exhumed by Cemetery Su
perintendent Bryan and interred in a
different section. When the grave
diggers had uncovered the codln and
wont to remove it from the grave , it
was found that two men could not budge
it. Usually after a body has boon in
the ground for several years it becomes
very light , but it' took six men to lift
this one from the grave. This singular
fact induced Superintendent Bryan to
investigate into the cause , and it was
found thai the body was completely pot-
rillod , and was as hard and solid and
heavy as a rock. It was in a wooden
cofflu , and the top had decayed so
that the glass had fallen on the face.
The weight of the glass had somewhat
disfigured the nose , but with. this ex
ception , and the sunken appearance ot
the eyes , the face preserved its familiar
appearance. "When buried , however ,
the face was clean shaven , and when
looked at to-day it was covered with
beard several inches long. The face
was dark , and presented the appearance
of iron , looking not unlike a metal cast.
Superintendent Bryan and those pres
ent , aftnr making the examination ,
proceeded to bury the romainu in the
now lot , but the story leaked out this
evening , and Undertaker Platt and
others will make an effort to got the
consent of the family to again exhume
the body for the purpose of making a
more critical andbcloiitificoxamination.
The remains wore buried less than four
years ago , and the short time in which
purification has occurred makes it a re-
nmrkablo and unusual cabo.
Driven Out by a Ghost ,
Albany N. Y. Journal : The latest
sensation at Little Falls , N. Y. , is a
haunted house , and many believers in
"spooks" actually think that the torrl-
flcd people that wore frightened have
the best of reasons to vacate the dwell
ing , which they did without much do-
lay. No. 29 Portous street is a dwelling
occupied by two families , that of James
Carney on the first floor , and Mrs.
MoyItalian , a widow , and her children
on the second. These families have oc
cupied the house for the past two
months.
Of late they have been startled by
ghostly and unusual noises , such as a
dry , sepulchral cough and the slamming
and opening of doors. If a door was
closed it would suddenly spring open
without the aid of visible hands , and if
it was open it would close with u slam in
the same mysterious ways. In one of
the rooms occupied by the Cnfnoysafter
dark the dry coughing commences , so
ghostlike in sound , as Mr. Carney de
scribes it , it makes the hair rise on the
head , and cun bo distinctly heard all
night long , and apparently comes from
under the bed.
Doors locked at night are found un
locked in the morning , and yet there-
are no signs that a human hand has un
fastened thorn. The families being unable -
able to solve the mystery of these
ghostly manifestations have vacated
the house. Last" Monday night the
coughing and opening and closing of
doors so demoralized them that they
took refuge in one room. There wore
seven in all , but still the ghost was not
disturbed by their presence , for it kept
on coughing and making peculiar noises
the entire night , and the coughing al
ways proceeded from the name spot under -
dor the bad.
It was u long and fearful night , and
.the inmates of the haunted house clung
to each other and waited with boating
hearts and terror in their souls for the
break of day , when the invisible spirit
would vanish. With its disappearance
the coughing censed. The night was
ono long to bo remembered , and they
shiver now when they think of it. The
following day after their usual exper
ience the promises were vacated.
Policemen Torrlllod by IlobgobllnH
1'onsacola ( Fla. ) correspondence St.
Louis Globo-Domocrat : A short time
Hinco two foreign sailors wore drowned
in the harbor hero , and the stevedores
Bay that their ghosts walk , nnd.nothinc
can induce the majority of them to gc
near the wharves at midnight. A
dozen sailors of a British vessel lying at
anchor a quarter ot a mlle from short ]
came ashore on liberty , and , like all
Jack-tars , had n jolly time , ending bj
getting drunk us so many lords. Tvvc
of them mibsed the return boat , and on
going down at midnight found out thai
they were left. Uuing just far enougli
"over seas" not to know the dangers ol
the strong tides , they undressed and
plunged in to swim out to the ship ,
leaving their clothes on the whari ,
Some negroes passing by stole the
clothes , The next uny the bodies ol
the two mon wore cast r.shovoiv mile below <
low town.
The second day after a darkey cume
into the police station , and handing
the captain a package , told him that il
contained tlio olothes of the two sailors ,
The negro added that the men who hat
taken them had given them to him tc
return , as the ghpstaof the two men hac
appeared to them in nature's garb ani
tritk horrible imprecations uoina'nUud
their clothes. ThoJrlghtenfcd thieves
did not dare ' 10 keep them after this ,
and return them at onco.
The chief laughed at the tale , and
putting the clothes to ono side , thought
little moro of it ; The next day the pa
trol who was stationed at the central
wharf , whore the sailors loft from asked
for a change of station , alleging that
the cold night air from off the water
was bad for him. Ho was given another
post and a different ofllcor given tha
beat. Ho , too , applied for n , change ,
and successively six different olllcors
gave up the place. Tlio chief then in
vestigated and told the following story :
"At about 11:80 : the attention of the
policeman on duty was attracted by a
noise like as if a swimmer was climbing
up the side of the wharf , Suspecting
thieves he hastened there , and opening
his. bull's-eye lantern ho throw his
light on the spot where the nolso was
heard. As the rays illuminated the
dock there stepped into the circle -
clo of light the ghosly forms
of the dead sailors magnified
to huge proportions , stark naked , sea
weed clinging to their hair , and their
faces and bodies horribly eaten by fish
and crabs. They stalked by the ofllcor
without seeming to notice him , and
going to the spot whore their clothes
had been loft , appeared to bo hunting
for something their vain search scorn
ing to render them perfectly furious
with rage. The olllcor dropped his
lantern and fled. The others all corro
borated his tale and related the sumo
general pxporionco , save the last ono ,
who added to his "story that ono of the
spectral figures came up nnd attempted
to embrace him , with a drunken leer
on its corpse-liko face. No ofllcor Is
stationed there now and not a darky in
the city would go on the dock at mid
night for $1,000. During the day hun
dreds of people have visited the spot
and commented upon the strange talo.
Tlio odlcors nro laughed at by many ,
but they stick to their story and refuse
to do duty on that particular wharf.
SINGUIiAlUTIES.
Mrs. Phllo Lynch , of Crawford county ,
Ind. , is the mother of sovcn children , a U un

she gave birth to triplets- and -a few days
she gave birth two boys and two girls.
A lonion wns picked nt Los Angeles. Cal. ,
the other day that weighed three avid three-
fourths pounds , was six and cmo-hr.tf inches
long and flvo inches in diameter. The tree
on which It grow had but half n dozen lemons.
A farmer near Chobanso , 111 , , having an
ox that did not obey orders , concluded that
the animal was deaf , and bought an car
trumpet , which worked with great success.
The animal had lost its appetite , but with its
return of hearing ate heartily. The oar
trumpet is fastened in place by wires around
ono of the horns.
While Daniel Lowry , a negro laborer , m
Marlboro county , S. C. , was cutting a log in
the woods , ho struck the rim of a hollow , out
of which suddenly Jumped a rain frog , which
wns perfectly transparent and apparently in
good health. The frog survived but a few
moments after reaching the open air. It is
estimated from the state of the log that the
frog had been in it for the last thirty years.
A dovilllsh or ocean vampire was acciden
tally caught near Vera Cruz , Mexico , in a
fishing seine recently. Ropes wore thrown
around the monster , and by the aid of horses
it was drawn to the shore. It weighed two
tons , and when spread out on the beach dead
presented every npycaranco of an enormous
bat or vampire. It measured fifteen feet
long and seventeen feet \vido from the edges
of the pectoral llns , nnd its mouth was llvo
lent across. A number of thorn had' been
scon for some timo. but all efforts to catch
ono had proved futile.
Hassan Toolidgo , of Ward City , A. T. , will
probably sooa bo seen in a circus. Ho has
devoted his spare time to educating a black
snake , and has taught Ita number of remark
able tricks. At the word of command the
snake will tie itself up into a Turk's head
knot and remain in that position until re
leased. Then it will stand straight up on the
end ofjits tail and hiss an accotnpaniamcnt 10 a
violin which its master plays. The intelli
gent reptile sees to putting tlio chickens in
their coop nt night , and if ono happens to bo
missing it will thresh and hiss iu a most
alarming manner until Mr. Toolidgo's atten
tion is attracted. Its favorite resting place
at night Is in ono of Mr. Toohdgo's long
boots.
Liberty Hill , Ga. , is the scene of a peculiar
phenomenon. A well on the premises of II.
Leo wont dry Just after the earthquake ol
18SO , and had to bo sunk eight feet deepot
before the How of water was resumed. A
few days ago the family of Leo was much
alarmed by loud reports from the well ,
sounding like powder blasts "or the firing ol
cannon. On Saturday night another detona
tion was heard , and the water suddenly shot
like a geyser nearly to the top of the well
with a rise and fall like the drawing in and
expelling of the breath in human respiration ,
The water thus expelled is boiling hot. People -
plo for miles around are flocking to the scene
and the scientists are much excited over it.
An animal , different from any over before
seen in that part of the country , has been
destroying sheep , swine and calves in Uarlow
county , Georgia. The animals wcro fount ]
dead with a wound in the throat resembling
the stab of a stillctto. A farmer who sur
prised the beast iu the act of trying to kill c
sleeping calf the other night , says the creature
turo resembled a coyote in Its movements ,
hut was unlike any other animal that he
oversaw. It was of a dark copper color ,
with possum-shaped head and small beadlike -
like eyes , the tail bushy and erect , and the
body long and smooth. Men have banded
together and searched for it day and night ,
but have been unable to kill or capture it ,
On ono occasion a pack of hounds pursued it ,
when suddony : the leading dog came whin
ing back with a stream of blood oozing fron
the throat , and in half au hour died. A
scientist by the name of Gredulot has offeree
S100 for the animal dead or alive.

Moral Obligation.
Philadelphia Ledger : The truth
; hat every now right secured involves
new obligations nnd now duties needs
much moro omphnsls than it nt present
receives. The doslro to gain rights is
strong enough nnd stilHciontly mani
fested , but the desire to fulfill worthily
the trusts they impose is comparatively
weak. A man chained hand and foot
is certainly deprived of the right of
Tree motion , nnd justly demands re
lease. But dlroctly ho is sot frco a mul
titude of duties and obligations .spring
up.Vhoro shall lie direct his stops ?
How shall ho use his hands ? "What
good thing is ho to bring out of his lib
erty that was Impossible before ? If he
use's his newly-found power only to
abuse and maltreat his fellow-men , it
may well bo doubted whether , nftor all ,
his former state of restraint were not
preferable. So with all other
rights free thoughts , free speech ,
free press , free labor they are bless
ings in proportion as they are exercised
for good ; when they are used in the in
terests of selfishness nnd greed , or to
destroy the rights of others , or to break
down law and order , they ccaso to bo
benefactions , and if carried in such di
rections beyond certain limits , society
iustly retracts the boon. Rights used
in the cause of wrong certainly forfeit
their claim to recognition , and render
their very name an absurdity. It is
time that more omphaais were laid upon
moral obligation , both ns between man
and his fellow-man and between man
and the community. Too many people
are developing a keen insight into
what they suppose others o've thorn ,
while maintaining a dullness of per
ception truly alarming as to what
they owe to others. Clamoring loudly
for their own rights , they forgot how
many rightful claims of others they are
constantly withholding.It is , of course ,
only the few extremely pronounced
cases of this injustice with which the
law can deal. By far the larger pro
portion are beyond the reach of law
courts. The father of a family , claim
ing the right to order hU own house
hold , robs his children of the most sa
cred rights , nnd through avarice , self
ishness , or ill humor , wrecks their hap
piness and prospects. Or an avaricious
manufacturer , who claims the right to
manage his own business without inter
ference , so manages it that his work
men must labor at starvation wages ,
and his customers mutt pay full price
for an adulterated article. Or the la
borer eagerly claims his right to labor
at pleasure , nnd to ccaso when ho will ,
yet utterly disregards the bamo right
of his fellow laborer , and compels
him , by threat and penalty , to abstain
from working at his command. Thus ,
in the name of liberty , many an act of
tyranny nourishes ; in the name of freo-
d'oin , many a feeble ono becomes enslaved -
slaved ; in'tho name of human rights ,
many a man and woman is1 cruelly
wronged ; in the name of free speech ,
many a fair reputation is ruined , many
falsehoods disseminated , many errors
taught. What is needed among us
moro than the insistence of rights is
the enforcement of duty. It should be
impressed upon the minds and hearts of
all that a right is not something
merely to secure , to rejoice in , and
to use at pleasure , but tliat it is
a solemn trust to hold , an obliga
tion to fulfill , a power to wield , a re
sponsibility for which each who
possess it is accountable. Tho'question
BO often asked : "Am I receiving all
the rights to which I am entitled ? "
should bo coupled with the moro im-
and searching ones : "Am
Fortant all the rights with
which I am invested for the best good
of society ? Am I giving to others all
the rights which belongs to them , as far
as my power estends ? " It is this atti
tude of mind which gives breath and
dignity to life , and raises justice and
generosity to their rightful places in
society. Only' men live for some
thing higher anil nobler than self can
they attain their true value , and only
ns tills is done habitually by Individual's
can wo hope to BOO an elevated and
prosperous community. A movement
in this direction is being made by the
formation of societies , whoso object is
said to bo "tho dissemination of a
knowledge of the principles of good
citizenship and the promotion of the
observance of the duties imposed
thereby. " Wo gladly welcome all such
endeavors , hoping that their influence
may bo widely dilTused and may help to
place the whole doctrine of rights upon
the firm and sure basis of righteousness.
Mr. Oonkllng's Property In Washing
ton.
Mr. Colliding owned a valuable build
ing lot in this city , situated at the intersection -
torsoction of Hhodo Island avenue and
M street , which ho bought many years
ago at a very low prico. It is now very
valuable , being ono of the most attrac
tive lots in the city , and would sell for
ton times what ho paid for it. Ho had
several offers from would-bo purchasers ,
but has always refused them , declaring
that ho would not dispose of the prop
erty for any less than it had cost him in
taxes and interest on the investment.
It is thought that amount can now he
obtained and it will shortly bo put in
the market.
An intimate friend tolls mo that the
estate will not amount to moro than
$ (10,000 ( or $70,000 , exclusive of his resi
dence in Utica , which is now free
from incumbranco. Although his fees
were largo , and his income amounted tc
$50,000 or 00,000 during the last three
or four years , he has devoted the most
of it to the payment of his debts nnd tc
reimbursing the family of children whc
were robbed of their fortune by Arthur
Johnson , ills frlond.

Her Portrait.
New York Tctct/rnm.
A sweet , grave face , a straight , alight form ,
And eyes that scorn to gaze and gaze
At clouu and sunshine , pence nnd storm ,
Still hidden In the unborn days.
A child's unconsciousness of 111 ,
A woman's sympathy , a mind
Too near to heaven nnd childhood still
To harbor aught untrue , unkind.
With fancies tender ns the loaves
Just budding In the uarly spring.
Such garlands of sweet thoughts she weaves
As quaint old poets loved to sing.
I feel I have no place nor part , >
No chance of harmony in sooth
With this child-woman's ' sleeping heart ,
Her queenly and Unconscious youth.
But would I have it otherwise !
Nay , sweet , thy calm I would not move 1
With throbbing heart and conscious eyes ,
Tiiou wouldst not bo the maid I love !
An Interesting Contest.
Two French ladies lately agreed
upon a trial for a thousand francs to see
which could make her tongue run the
[ aster. The contest was to endure for
three hours. Ono pronounced 203,500
words , reading from Eugene Sue. The
other pronounced 200,311 and won the
prize.
That is , of course , owing to the liquid
ity of the French language ; however , a
ntloman who tried to break the rec
ord scored a record of only 119,412 words.
Ball Programmes Kncirclliigtltc Wrist
Like a Bracelet.
A novel ball programme , says the Now
York Mail and Express , consists of a
neat , thin , cardboard baud an inch and
a half in width , edged with gold , which
encircles tha wrist like a bracelet , and
is easily closed and unclosed by moans
of the thiirsiljccn cord which suspends
the pencil. "Dances" is inscribed on
the overlapping Map , the date and resi
dence below , Tand the dances in rota
tion all around , with space left for the
gentleman-to write his name or initials.
These novel , "bracelet programmes"
can bo had in ivhito , pale blue , or pink ,
and stamped to order nt short notico.
There is another ; is is a menu. It is
alsoabracelot and Is fastened by a dainty
colored ribbon bow after the menu is
stamped or written and passes over the
folded table-napkin. These are in
white or delicately tinted card , and are
pretty and novel. They can bo stamped
with crest if required , close to the bow ,
where "Menu" is written in gold.
And here are other novelties in the
same line. There are seine French
menus , with pen and ink sketches ,
which are uncommon and consist of sets
of six , issued fresh every month.
Ainony the subjects are scones at race
meetings , visitors to art galleries ,
fashionably attired femlao figures ston
ing out of a largo broken egg in
various positions , others caught in the
rain , etc. , all artistically and quaintly
drawn. Two slits are cut in the paper
and the menus slipped in , so that they
can bo used as often as they are
not carried oil tiy the guests , which is
so frequently done.
This does not Finish the now menus ,
beautifully colored with buttercups ,
daisies and violets ; another of Watteau
figures , each one a picture ; an old En
glish ono in imitation of discolored
edged parchment , with narrow double
ribbons run down the sides holding the
seal and "Yo Lystoof ye Dyshes of yo
Refection , " illuminated above in old
characters , others to fold up , represent
ing a natural looking slice of toast , etc. ,
are all popular designs.
Two Curious Artists.
Says the Now York Graphic : There
is a picture in the Academy by Maria
A'Bcokot , the chum of Bertha Von Hil-
lorn. They are a curious pair. Miss
A'Beckot has boon a nun. and through
some inscrutable logic still claims nllo
glance to the Roman Catholic church.
and in some still moro inscrutable way
the church accepts that allegiance des
pite her broken vows. She went along
with the rest of the public to see Miss
Von Hillorn when she was walking in
Boston olovoii or twelve years
ago. She loft the hall late in the
evening and after she got homo
and in bed she was haunted
by the thought of that
woman going on , round and
round through all the long night hours ,
nnd finally about 2 o'clock she got up
and dressed and wont back there.
Everyone wns gene but the trainer and
n sleepy attendant or two. It was the
last night of the engagement and the
trainer was very anxious about Miss
Von Hillorn. Ho welcomed Miss
A'Bockot's arrival eagerly as something
to excite nnd interest his charge. Ho
bogged Miss A'Bockot to walk around
the track n few times with her and talk
to her. SJio did so , and became so in
terested in the conversation that she
walked on till daylight. From that
night the two women have boon great
friends. Mlsjf A'Beckot wns painting ,
and , with 'characteristic impulsiveness
and belief "fn" her own intuitions , she
declared MlstfVon Hillorn ought to bo
a painter1 that sho'd make a great
painter , thai' she must stopwalking and
go to painting. Miss Von Hillorn ac
cepted the dictum , and the two women
have sincoithon spent most of their time

In fact It was of llttlo use to eat , for oven the
lightest food would not stay on my stomach. It
wns so weak. My lungs were very sore , and U
produced severe pain to cough.
If anyone wonfd have told mqthntl would
pull through I would not have bollored it. In

that I could not bo cured , nnd ono doctor told
mo I would not live three mouths. I had read

Cnn Catarrh Bo Cured ?
The past ngo might bo called n superstitious
one. The present can more properly DO called
an ago of surprises , for many things once classed
among the impossibilities have now become
everyday possibilities. It would besnperlluoua
to enumerate them , lint nave wo reached the
utmost limit ? Have we ? 1'hyslclans who claim
to wake certain ailments the human body is
subject to a special study , and claim to be nblo
to euro such diseases , are pronounced by other
self-satislled practioners as presumptuous ; bat
does their saying so make it so ? The man who
can como tlio iiearo&t to overcoming thu seeming
Impossibilities of others is now all the rage , and
won does ho or they deserve the success they
have labored so hard to attain. Dr. J. Cresap
McCoy orhls associates do not make claims to
anything marvelous , such as raising the dead
and giving them new life : neither do they claim
to give sight to the blind ; but by
their now nnd sclentlllc method of treating
catarrh they have cured and do euro catarrh an
well as bronchial and throat troubles. They
make catarrh n specialty , because ills one of
the most prevalent and troublesome diseases
that the people of this climate nro heir to. Slnco
Dr. McCoy and Ills associates have located In
this city they Uavo treated with success hun
dreds or persons whom other physicians hare
told their disease was classed among the In
curables. Do' they not publish from week to
week In the dally papers testimonials from
seine of their many grateful patients , giving in
each cabo the full name nnd addrosn of tha per
son making the statement that tha doubting
and skeptical may call and interview the said
people prior to visiting tlio doctor's ofllce * for
consultation. The people advertised as cured
nro by no means obscure or unknown , but In
the majority of cases nro citizens well known
by the business people and community at large ,
and it will uioio than repay any one aullonng
from catarrhal nllectlon to visit those wlios *
statements are published , or consult with tu
the doctor or hla associates at his ollice.

Advances Hla Tlicory of Catarrh and
Consumption His Advice on the
Hnhjoor.
One of the boat learned physicians of modern
times , in un article on catarrh and consumption
Bays : "The tieatrnent of consumption has made
great advances by the introduction of new rem
edies , and has enabled the close student and
specialist to establish indications for remedies
long in use. so that by their methodical applica
tion butter results are attained than were for
merly gained at a time when consumption and
cancer weio regarded as equally incurable , nud
were somewhat ( similarly treated
The treatment of consumption demands a
careful avoldnnca to nil agents calculated to
cause liyneremla of the lungs und bronchial ca
tarrh. J'ersons in whom a tondeucy to con-
Humptlon Is suspected should bo treated with
the greatest caru und attention.
I "Finally , whenever there Is the slightest sus
picion of a predisposition to consumption , every
catarrh , no matter how Might , should bo treated
with the utmost care , which must not bo rolaxud
until the cuUrrh in entirely well. This rule , so
obtloiiH from our point of view , la very fre
quently violated-
"Many patients fall n victim to tue deply
