Prangle consisting of husband, wife, two
sons and four daughters, became converts
home in Oneida county, New York, for
Salt Lake City. On the route they were
attacked by Indians, and one of the sons,
then but ten years old, was captured by the
savages. The captive remained with the
tribe until 1859, when he escaped. made
his way to New Orleans, and during the
war was in the rebel army. Last Friday he
happened to be in Cleveland, where he met
bis brother, whom be had not seen for

The cause of this great revolution was
partly general and partly local. In Pitts
burg, as in Cincinnati, the nominating
Conventions of the Radicals have long
been controlled by secret ring of poll
ticians, and great dissatisfaction is the re-
suit While the feeling growing out of
this controlled great many votes, the pre-
dominant reason was the popular disgust at
the complete incapacity which the Radicals
are exhibiting in Congress, and the utter
failure Of the reconstruction scheme" to
restore peace to the country. She Pitts
burg Post, in noticing the result, says
"This revolution is not alone confined to

THE ADDITIONAL BoUNTIEs. The COM
mitteo charged with the investigation of
the causes of delay in the payment of ad-
ditional bounties under the act of July,
1866. have reported to their chairman, COL
WAsuBURN, of Indiana, that the commit
tee find that up to December LIST, $751;
1900 claims were field, of which 273, 900
remained unsettled /; that the delay in great
part arises from the insufficient force EN-
ployed, and also from the fact that the
Paymaster Generals Office has no control
of the final master out rolls of the army,
and is obliged to receive all its information
regarding each case from the Second Au-
ditor's Office /; that in this Office, however,
all has been done thatcould be expected to
further the work The committee also re-
port that the crowded state of the rooms
where many of the clerks arc obliged to
work is disgrace to the nation. Many
cases daily occur through frequent losses of
checks in their transmission through the
mails, tie Assistant Treasurer in New York
refusing to pay duplicate checks even when
notified officially that the originals are lost
The committee recommend the passage of
a bill providing for suitable increase in
the force employed in settling those claims,
and also authorizing payment on duplicate
checks where the originals are known to be
lost.

AN AGED MASON. Nathaniel Fuller
ton, resident of the Bellows Falls vt
Bank, was born in ITS, and is consequent
ly ninety-two years old. He remembers
Gen. Washington, whom he saw at Wor-
cester, Mass, and also many events con
nected with his Presidential administra-
ton, as well as the period of confederation.
He was made mason in 1897, and has
always been active and faithful! in his rela
tions to the fraternity. By industry and
integrity he has accumulated large for
tune in the avocation of farmer, merchant
and banker. He still retains much of the
vigor of manhood, signs all his bills in a
full, clear hand, attends lodge meetings
quite regularly, and plays euehre with all
the relish and zeal of the amateur. His
son, sixty-three years of age, whom he
calls his ''boy," lives near him, and par
takes much of his fathers energies and
tastes He is probably the oldest euchre
player in the United States. Better than
this, his long life has been marked by a
strict adherence to the right, which has
brought to his old age honor and compe-
tence.

Mrs. Cunningham Again.

The lovers of scandal are anticipating a
rich treat in the developments In the forth
coming divorce trial Of. Mary G. Hyde U.s.
w. Z. Hyde Our readers Will; most of
them, remember the famous tragedy of the
Burdel murder, in New York, and the
subsequent somewhat farcical proceedings
in regard to the doctor s, property The
doctor coming home late one night WIS
murdered in the hail Of his house by
somebOdy-;t was never known who, but
the public and officers of the law had strong
suspicious, and subsequent events have
rather tended to confirm them. Mrs. Gun
bingham, a woman with two grown up
daughters, was living in the doctor house,
and on his burial Mrs. Cunningham laid
claim to the property, on the pretence that
a secret marriage had been performed be-
tween them months before the murder.
The case created the greatest excitement,
and was the talk of the whole country.
Her marriage, said to have taken place at
a daguerrean gallery, if [ remember right
ly, was not proven to the satisfaction of the
court though a considerable degree OF in
timacy had undoubtedly existed between
them.
Then there was simulated childbirth,
and the new claim TO the estate of the doc
tor faiid, the physician employed by the
heirs having discovered that the supposed
infant son of the murdered man was a
dummy" made up for the purpose, and
that Mrs. Cunningham illness was caused
solely by An overdose of green cucumber.
This woman was recognized in San Fran
cisco some years since, and has been re-
siding here and elsewhere on the Pacific
coast from that time, occasionally making
her appearance before the courts under
one name or another. She Mrs. Cunning
ham) is the plaintiff in this divorce suit:
She charges Hyde with cruelty, hNbitual
intemperance, adultery and desertlon, and
he make answer that the plaintiff, who
sues nnder the name Of Mary @. Hyde,
was baptized Emma Augusta Hampstead,
and first married George Cunning ham, at
ter which she claimed to be the wife of DR..
Burdell, as stated She was married to
defendant Hyde under the name OF Caro-
line Doremus, and the defendant charges
her in turn with adultery in New Mexico
and also in San Francisco. Mary Augusta

BODY SNATCHING The Ozaukee county
Advertiser reports the following case Of
"body snatching:"
"On Saturday the 18th inst, Mr.. Den
MS Cooney, son of John Cooney, OF this
village, died of consumption, and on the
following Monday, was buried in the Cath
Ollie Cemetery. On the very night OF the
day on which he was buried, his body was
dug up and carried away-by whom, is, as
yet, unknown. The body was taken from
the coffin, and the coffin and rough box
which contained it, were replaced in the
grave and carefully covered up again and
had it not been for light fail Of snow on
the day and evening of the burial, the fact
of the robbery of the grave would have
forever remained a secret. But the doings
of the operators were discovered on Tues
day morning by their tracks in the snow.
This is something new in quiet place
like this, and so remote from any medical
institutes. And this fact led to the search
ing of the premises of our local physicians,
which, of course amounted to nothing, as
none of our physicians would engage in
such mean business. 1t is probable that
no clue will ever be had to the perpetrators
of this outrageous deed. Nothing can be
moro narrowing to the lnnermost feelings
of the human heart, than for surviving
friends to know that dear departed rela-
tive has been ruthlessly snatched from the
quiet slumber of the grave and taken to
some dissecting room, to be cut and carved
with as little feeling as butcher cuts beef
steak"

An Elephant Kills His Keeper,

From the Pittsburgh Commercial, Dee %.
The elephant Romeo, known as one of,
If not the largest in the country, was placed
a short time since on farm in Hatboro,
Montgomery county, Pa. for winter quar-
ters by his owner, Mr.. Forepaugh, and
leaving his keeper, Mr.. w. S. Williams, in
charge. On Wednesday last Mr.. Williams
went to the place where the elephant was
kept, for the purpose of washing the face,
tusks and portions of the body of the ami
NAL, and while thus engaged Romeo at
tackled Williams, thrusting one of his tusks
into his body and treading upon him. The
cries of the keeper attracted number Of
persons, when the elephant allowed the
wounded man to be removed without OPP
position. Williams was so dreadfully in
jured that he died in about one hour after
being attacked The elephant seemed to
be perfectly docile shortly afterwards, but
it was thought proper to confine him with
chains, so as to prevent future accidents.
Mr. Williams, the deceased, belonged to
London in Canada West, and leaves wife
who was with him at the time of his DEATH
He had charge of Romeo for four or five
years, some fifteen years ago, and did not
again assume the duties of keeper until one
yeai ago.
