lively and peremptorily refused TO return
the money received for the chickens. At
this the wizard woman became very
angry, and said that she would go home
and fix up spell, and come back and
put it upon Mrs. Fitzgereld. The next
day she again visited the market place,
and was friendly with Mrs. Fitzgerald,
apologized for her rudeness the day be-
fore, that the chickens we're all right, and
finally induced Mrs. +. to taste some wine
she had with her. As soon as the en-
chanted mixture had been swallowed, the
old fortune-teller revealed her true char
acter. Her friendly manner had been
assumed for the occasion, to enable her
to accomplish h her fell purpose. She
made a numb er of mysterious signs, and
then told the affrighted woman that she
had put spell upon her, and that as
long as life lasted she would suffer from
consuming inward fire-a burning. in
side, as Mrs. F. terms it--which no doc
tor could cpire. Mrs. +, AYERS that, as
soon as the fell words were spoken, she
began to warm up internally, and since
that hour has felt as if she were being
consumed with fire; that her head burns
and blazes ils though it would burst. She
has tried all sorts of remedies without
effect She went to the old woman who
had conjured ller, and plead with her to
remove the spell, and offered to pay
her handsom, ,ly. The old woman re-
fused, whereul ION Mrs. +. pitched in and
thrashed her oundly The burning still
continued, and she again visited the old
woman to get relief, but she was mex,
orable and re fused to remove the spell
for any consie eration. Mrs. Fitzgerald
says that, gored to desperation by her
sufferings, which she knew nothing but
death could alleviate, and confident that
her soul was gone, she tried to poison
herself, and still wants to die.
A met lical examination disclosed the
fact that she was of unsound mind. The
old fortl Ine-teller did pretend to con
jure b er, and this so worked upon the
weak, superstit ious fears of Mrs. +. as to
drive her crazy She will be sent to the

Attempted Suicide A Bewitched
Woman Tries TO Break the Spell
with Bedbug Poison. n.


From the Courier-J Journal.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Ellen Fitz-
gerald, a married woman about forty
years of age, and the mother of several
children, attempted to commit suicide at
her residence on Main street. between
Eleventh and Chapel, by swallowing a
quantity Of bedbug poison, the chief
component of which is strychniDe.
At an early hour yesterday she, went
to Sutton's. drugstore. ON Je fferson
street, between Ninth and Ter tn, and
asked for something 10 destroy bedbugs.
The druggist gave, her the p olson and
she went home, and soon affsr entering
the house she began to dri'ak the con
tents of the bottle. Mrs. Mitchell, who
was in the room, observed the action and
seized Mrs. f. by the throat and com
PEELED her to eject from her mouth a
quantity Of the poison. She managed,
however, TO swallow more than sufficient
To have caused death. A physician was
speedily summoned. and by prompt
treatment the deadly potion was re-
moved from her stomach. She was then
removed 10 st. Vineents Home, the hos
pital Of the Sisters of Charity, on
Fourth stseet where she was kindly
cared for. IN
When questioned as to the motive for
the suicidal act she told a strange story
Of Ignorance and superstition. For
some years she kept a huckster stand in
the Tenth street market, and her troubles
were brought upon her in the course OF
trade. She SAYS that about four years
ago an old fortune-teller. who lived in
Congress alley, came TO her stall and
purchased a pair Of chickens, but in a
short time returned and said they were
not as they were represented, and
wanted the purchase money refunded,
but Mrs, 4. did business upon the princi-

HoRsE kILLrp.--On Thursday night
last. as Henry Bricker and another
young man were driving into town in
buggy, near the station, they saw the
Philadelphia Express approaching as
they were on the track. Both the men
in their fright jumped out of the buggy.
and the horse turued to the right and
was going along the track when the To-
comoiive struck it and mangled it in
such frightful manner that it had to be
shot to end his misery. The buggy was
shattered to pieces.-Huntinsdon Globe.
