MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.

A wealthy citizen of Cleveland, Ohio, was
arrested on Saturday by Constable Whitney,
on charge of perjury. 1t is charged that he
swore before an assessor that the only money
he possessed, subject to taxation, was 5000,
whereas it is claimed by the gentleman max
ing affidavit against him that he had at the
time he made the oath over $4,000 in ready
money at his command.
The London Court Circular has story
about lady who, more than sixteen years ago,
named Colson. residing in Hyde Park Terrace,
resolved 'never to see the light of day again, .
from having been disappointed in her matri
monial views with Col II. Ever since the
year 1913, this eccentric maiden has lived and
slept III Il chamber from which all light is rig
idly excluded, save what is furnished to her by
artificial means.
There is IL widow living in Erie County,
Minnesota named Roberts, who, with her four
daughters, does all the labor on farm of 100
acres. The eldest daughter has charge of the
blowing department, while the youngest super
intends the team. The other two daughters
assist as their services are required, both in
and out of the house.
The National Intide Convention closed its
annual session in Philadelphia last week. Ho-
race Seavcr, of the Boston Investigator, pre-
sided, and the proceedings are said to have
been very harmonious Fourteen new socie-
ties have been added to the parent society dur
ing the year. The next convention will be
held at New York.
About forty Of the Oldest citizens of Dumfer-
line, Scotland, dned together, the youngest OF
whom was 70, the oldest SO, the average age
being Is, and the aggregate being more than
5000 years. There being no fewer than q
present who had served in the army, their bat
ties were duly fought over again.
That old clock bought in Brooklyn, n. Y,
contained $4,000 instead of $4,000, as at first
reported. There were three fl000 Bank of
England notes of the reign of Queen Anne.
The lucky finder took the notes to New
York broker, who was afraid to cash them I'M
til he had written to the Bank of England,
which he has done, and is awaiting an an
swer.
Mr.. Green West of Amherst, Me-, had his
leg broken below the knee several years ago.
On Monday last, as he was passing behind his

the old fracture. He tainted Immediately,

few minutes.
Worcester daily spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1850-1888, 1859-10-19

AT the foot of the rock on which Csejta stood
was a small cottage, inhabitated by two old
women; and between the cellar of this cottage
and the castle was a subterranean passage,
known only to one or two persons, and never
used but in times of danger. With the aid of
these old crones aud her steward, Elizabeth
led the poor girl through the secret passage to
the cottage, and after numbering her, bathed
in her blood. Not satisfied with the first essay
at different intervals, by the aid of these ac-
completes and the secret passages, no less than
three hundred maidens were sacrificed on the
altar of vanity and superstition.
Several years had been occupied in this
pitiless slaughter, and no suspicion of the
truth was excited though the greatest amaze
ment pervaded the country at the disappear
ance of so many persons. AT last, however,
Elizabeth called into play against her two pas
sions even stronger than vanity and cunning.
Love and revenge became interested in the
discovery of the mystery. Among the victims
of Cselta was beautiful virgin, who was be-
loved by, and betrothed to young man of the
neighborhood. In despair at the loss of his
mistress, he followed her traces with such per-
severance that, in spite of the hitherto success
full caution of the murderess, he penetrated the
bloody secrets of the castle, and burning for
revenge, flew to Presburg, boldly accused
Elizabeth BathOri of murder, before the pala
tine in open court, and demanded Judgment
against her. SO grave an accusation brought
against person of such high rank, demanded
the most serious attention, and the palatine
undertook to investigate the case in person.
Proceeding Immediately to Csejta, before the
murderess or her accomplices had any idea of
the accusation, he discovered the still warm
body of young girl whom they had been de-
stroying as the paatine approached, and not
had time to dispose of it before he apprehended
them. The rank of Elizabeth mitigated her
punishment to imprisonment for life, but her
assistants were burned at the stake.
Legal documents still exist to attest the
truth of this circumstance. Paget, distin-
guished traveller, who visited Csejta about 20
years ago, says: "With this tale fresh in our
minds, we ascended the long hill, gained the
castle and wandered over its ruins. The
shades of evening were just spreading over
the valley, the grey walls stood up against the
red sky, the solemn stiffness of evening reign
ed over the scene and as two ravens, which
had made their nests on the castles highest
towers, came towards it winging their heavy
fight, and wheeling once round, each cawing
a hoarse welcome to the other, alighted on
their favorite turret, | could have fancied them
the spirits of the two crones, condemned to
haunt the scene of their former crimes, while
their internal mistress was cursed by some
more wretched DOOM"

THE BATH OF BLooD.-About the year
1910, Elizabeth Bathori sister to the King of
Poland, and wife of rich and powerful Hun
garian magnate, was the principal actor in the
most singular and horrible tragedy mentioned
in history. She occupied the castle of Csejta,
in Pennsylvania. Like most other ladies of
that period, she was surrounded by troupe OF
young girls, generally the daughters OF poor
but noble parents, who lived in honorable SER
yitude, in return for which, their education
was cared for, and their dowry secured. Eliz-
abeth was of cruel and severe disposition
and her hand.maidens led no Joyous life.
Slight faults are said to have been punished by
most merciless tortures.
One day, as the lady of Cseita was admiring
at the mirror those charms which that faithful
monitor told her were fast waning, she gave
way to her ungovernable temper, excited, per-
haps, by the mirrors unwelcome hint and
struck her unofiending maid with such force
in the face as to draw blood. AS she washed
from her hands the stain, she fancied the part
which the blood had touched grew whittier, soft
or, and as it were, younger. lmbued with
the credulity of the age, she believed she had
discovered what so many philosophers had
wasted years in seeking for. She supposed
that in virgins blood she had found the
ctirir rita, the fountain of never-failing youth
and beauty. Remorseless by nature, and now
urged on by irrepressible vanity, the thought
no sooner flashed across her brain than her
resolution was taken; the life OF her luckless
hand maiden was not to be compared with the
precious boon her death promised to secure.
Elizabeth, however, was wary as well as cruel.
