A FEMALE NAMPIRE.-There is youno
married woman in the city of ST. Louis, a ma
tive OF the Canton of Berne Switzerland. who
is afflicted with a disease which she calls - a
dancing of the heart" and which the phys-
lcians pronounce incurable. She has a fe.
male friend who was afflicted with similar
disease, and was cured by tving around her
neck piece of rope that had been used in
hanging criminal. The lady with the
dancing heart'' firmly believes that she can
be cured hy drinking few drops of the blood
OF man who has been executed in a similar
manner. Her name is Elizabeth Mund. and
she Is twenty three years of age. and has been
the mother of three children, none of whom
survive. She has made Numerous applica.

be an execution, and rs there has been no
case of capital punishment at that institution
for several months, her desire for human
blood has not been gratifed. On the 18th of
March Mrs. Mund came in with smiling
countenance and inquired when the execu-
ton would take place. She heard that John
Abshire, sentenced by court martial to be
hung by the neck. was to be executed in the
jail yard on the 18th of March, as it was sta.

tence. however, was suspended until appli-

Communication to imprisonment for life. and
on being informed that the man was not to be
hung, Mrs. Mund appeared to be greatly
disappointed and chagrined. Captain Bish.
oop cheered her dropping spirits, however,
by telling her. in the smoothest German he
could command. that on the 18th of April
man would be hung by the neck until dead,
