WITCHCRAFT.
Family Bewifched Parents, Sons, and
EDaDRhters seek Refuge In n Police station.

EDabehters Seek Refuge in n Police station.
The Milwaukee (Wis.) Sentinel OF the goth utimo
has this singular story
Until yesterday we had believed that witchcraft
and demonism were among the things of the past.
Then the delusion was dispeled by the appearance
OF entire family OF Second. warders, who in
sisted upon beng locked up to save themselves
from the direful influences OF a heXenmester, or
master of witches, residing in their neighborhood
The father, Heinrich Alvers, stated to the police
that he accupies a wing of house No. 500 Winnie
bago street. where demonstrations OF an unusual
character had kept the family in state OF great
citement for the past four days and that the noises
were so unearthly that his wife and children had
not been able to sleep for two nights.
About O'Clock yesterday afternoon Mr.. Alvers
was warned by the mysterious voice OF an invisi-
BILE presence, that unless he locked up the members
OF his family he would be murdered by one OF the
number during the night. He Immediately sum-
moned the family to the sitting room, and informed
them of the mysterious message. After prayerful
and fearful council, the family voted to forsake
their home and seek an asylum where the heXen-
meister could exercise no undue influence over
them, or cause them TO commit the awful crime of
parricde, which they considered certain II they re-
mained at home. Accordingly the house de-
serted the family taking up its march TO the police
station to claim the protection OF the authorities.
On learning the cause of their sorrow and tribala-
latlon, the of1cers attempted to persuade them to
RETURN assuring them that they would receive pro-
lection, but all in VAIN. they begged piteously TO
be locked up hey ond the power OF the hexenmeis-
ter.
The family, consisting of two sons and two daugh-
tiers, ranging between twelve and nineteen years of
age, were fairly wild with grief when the officers
marched the old man TO the cell-roOm IL having be-
come evident that he was slightly demented. They
were finally prevailed upon TO leave him to the care
OF the authorities but he could not be prevailed upon
TO return home until two MEMBERS of the force were
detailed 10 escort them TO the house. with orders to
stop with them during the night for the purpose of
discovering the cause of the Old mans troubles.
How the goblin chase OF our trusty policeman will
turn ont remains TO be seen, but that it will esta-
bish peace In the deluded household and prove the
Vaccinations or the heXenmester TO be the phan-
tasms of a dsOrdered brain, one acquainted with
the case Will for moment DOUBT

refrain scrupulOusly from putting any question to
him which IL might be embarrassing to answer In-
quiring after Riciott the General told me that when
last he heard of him he was in Corfu; that he had
come away from Caprera so suddenly that his sons
did not know OF his doing; but he was sure that
when they knew he was in France they would both
follow him. He said it was not true as the papers
have reported, that any red shirts were in Tours,
and that the members Of his legion who
are awaiting him at Chambery were not yet
equipped. He spoke with affection of common
with brighter ray as he said he believed he should
be joined by some English volunteers. At the end
OF about quarter OF an hour rose to take leave,
feeling scrupulous about depriving invalid OF his
rest But he detained us good while longer after

servation made that one of the most marvellous
things in this marvellous year was to see him

where, six months ago. Pierre Bonaparte was tried
and acquitted. When at length we retired he
thanked us repeatedly for our visit in the most
hattering terms.

Secretary again, through purely political intrigue
found himself in very embarrassing position.
knowledge of the situation here reached him a.
Staten Island where he was spending his vacation
and he finally consented to place the questions In
volved before the President in such way as to as
certain whether it the wish Of the Executive to
support him in the contest or to abandon the field
to the influences which had been at work so long
and so persistently, and thus secure peace.
Accordingly on the Sd OF October the Secretary
wrote the letter of resignation and mailed 1t to the
President at washington. The envelope was
marked personal to distinguish it from the mass OF
business mail, and to ensure Its meeting the Presi-
dents eye first Upon the letter itself there were
private nature by the Secretary, has ANYTHING
since passed between the President and the Secre-
tary to indicate that either considered the letter
other than the open official correspondence attend
ing resignation.
1.-THE Presidents reply was written Immediately
upon the receipt Of the resignation, namely, on
October 5, and is throughout IN his own hand. ln-
stead OF being forwarded to the Secretary himself at
Staten Island it sent with the routine business
mail TO the Department, addressed in the usual bus
ness form, The Secretary OF the INTERIOR, with no
mark the envelope to indicate that 1t was for the
Secretary in person. Consequently it was opened
with the business mail, and passed through several
hands as ordinary business does, before it was
stopped for the Secretary.
'Lest it might be supposed, from the statements

relied upon that the Secretary has never, either
orally or in writing, laid any private and personal
matters before the President as reasons why he

The Feeling Of Dependency.
Lyons Correspondence Of the London Times
While insisting upon hopeful view Of
their prospects the part of foreigners, and upon
having it presented to them in their own news
papers, there is deep underlying feeling OF des-
pondency which no false telegram of "a glorious
victory no sudden arrival of Gambetta and Carl
bald no positive intelligence OF the death OF M0tke
and his burial in gold coffin, can remove. An
ever-growing consciousness Is forcing itself upon
them that their position from day to day. instead of
growing better, ls getting worse that so far from
the republic putting forth latent and overwhelming
forces, and calling out the fresh and undeveloped
making themselves felt, and the energies of the
ton are almost exhausted; or IT, as may be possible,
the forces and the energies do exist, then
Repubcansm, so far, has failed to evoke them. No
doubt the country responded with tolerabe alacrty
to the call OF a teDee en HldSse-not, however, as
countries have responded in the supreme moment
of their fortunes OF their agouy not the two
tions OF the United States responded when locked
in their death struggle; not Poland or Hungary
responded when they wrested with an almost super
human effort to free themselves from the giant
grasp OF Russia and Austria; not a nation ought
TO respond that is hghting for bare life. Perhaps
they cannot believe that things desperate.
They may still honestly believe that the rest of Eu-
rope, sharing their own conviction that France
and "civilization" are convertible terms, cannot
stand tamely by and see the latter perish from OIL
the face OF the EARTH
