The s'rangest St ~ On Record.

From the Lacrosse Democrat.)
A correspondent writes Us from Water
loo. Iowa asking if We know of one Edgar
Burnham, and Of his history.
We do. And, as tits strange. true one,
known TO hundreds. we give il in the Dem
ocrat as it is. that we may correct some err
rOrs those who speak Of MIN have fallen IN
to-
Eight years since. when We were engaged
as city editor of Milwaukee paper, there
lived in this State an editor named Powell,
now connected with Chicago paper, we
think He is, unless he has quit it lately
In 1869 Powell was married to a Miss
Files Durham, Of Brodhead, Wis, after a
courtship OF some months. Miss Burn
hams parents were old residents of Brod-
head, and of high responsibility. The
daughter taught music, had large number
of pupils. aud was very attractive. Powell
iYed with her as husband two years, she
being all the time good wife in all respects,
presenting him with but one child. Attic
expiration of two years, when about twenty
one years of age, Mrs. Powell's voice
changed, she grew light whiskers, and
gradually changed her sex; developing into
a man in all respects, as if nature, anxious
for freak, had turned portion of herself
wrong side out!
The husband and wife separated when
the wife became man. and Miss Ellen Pow
ell took the name of Edgar Burnham, DOM
ed male attire, sought aud obtained en-
ployment as clerk in Chicago, and lived
a single man for one year.
/ During this time be fell in love with the
niece Of Senator Morgan. ofNew York, but
did not marry her, for reasons not peril
| nent to this article. But about the end oil
the year he did marry young lady of Brod-
head, Wis, Miss Gerta Everett, who was
music pupil of his when he was Miss Ell
len Burnhan, over three years previous to
the marriage. This second marriage was
about two years ago. Soon after this mar
rage, Edgar" Burnham removed to Wa
terloo, Iowa, where they now reside, or did
not long since.
The former girl is now mau; the former
wife is now husband the former mother
is now father the former young lady
teacher Of young lady, is now that young
lady's husband! Truth is, indeed stranger
than fiction. and the above simple STAGE
ment of facts borders SO upon the marvel
Gus we could not believe it did we not per-
sonally know nearly all the parties.
Any one can be convinced, by writing
to parties in either Of the places we have
named, of the full and entire truth of this.

The reason some persons are IefJ-handed
is because the left lung or side is stronger
than the right; but the reverse is the case
with few exceptions; and hence most people
are right handed; so also the reason Why
one travels in a circle when lost in the for
est, is because the superior strength Of the
muscles Of the right side draw the body
round unless the attention is directed to
some particular point.

In 1927 there were miles of Rail Road
in the United Stats, the Quincy Road in
Massachusetts; in 1897, there were l 1921
miles; in 1916, there were $3.50 miles; in
1857 there were 90, 625 miles; in 867 there
are SO, OOO More than enough to girde
the Earth. These roads are estimated to
have cost at least 81 500, 900, 600. The
most expensive. those Of West Virginia,
have been constructed at an average cost
per mile of S68 600. The cheapest, those
of North Carolina, at cost of about $50,
600, per mile. And the R Dads in the South
ern States, south of Virginia have averaged
from S24, 900 to $4,000 per mile. So it
will be seen that our Great Rail Road sys
tenn began on the shores of the Atlantic in
Massachusetts, in the East, in 1927, and
will end at San Francisco in California 10
the west on the shores of the Pacific, in
1870. Does this not,
Exceed what Greece or Rome has done;
Or any land beneath the Sun.
Three great Rail Roads have been pro-
iected from the Mississippi River to the
Pacific. One from St. Pauls, Minnesota
to the Bouth Of the Columbia, Oregan; an
other from St. Louis, Missouri, to San
Francisco, California, and Sd, from Mem
phis Tenn, & Vicksburg. Miss, also to
California. These are estimated to cost in
the order named about $3.50, 900 900;
$3.50. OOO, 900; and 394, 900, OoO Any one
of these great roads would repay the ex-
pense of construction in ten years, after
having been finished.

MIR. L1NooLN's Op1N1oN OF GEN.
LEE.-Mrs. Keckley, the colored SER
want of Mr.. Lincoln's family, says
that on the very morning of the
assassination, President Lincoln took
up portrait of Gen. Lee, scanned
the face thoughtfully, and said: "It
is q good face; it is the face of q
noble, noble, brave man. I am glad
that the war is over at last" Look
ing up at his son Robert, he CONT
nued: "Well, my son, you have re-
turned safely from the front. The
war is now closed, and we will soon
live in peace with the brave men that
have been fighting against us. I
trnst that the era Of good feeling has
returned with the close of the war,
and that henceforth we shall live in
peace" We're President Lincoln not
dead, he would, for such sayings and
thoughts as these, be denounced as
first class, double-dyed traitor by
those who have now the hypocrisy to
pretend reverence for his memory.
