THE DEFENCE OF FISK s MURDERER-A Strange
Story" Bureigh," the New York cores
pendent of the Boston JoDrnaI, gives the fol-
lowing outline Of Stokes defence: "Stokes
has been arraigned on an indictment found by
the grand jury, but he has not vet pleaded
There are some interesting if not startling po-
sitions taken for the defence. The one is that
Colonel Fisk was not only armed, but that the
wound in his arm was inflicted by himself
inflicted a la Vallandingham, in attempting to
draw his pistol from his pocket. That two
pistols were used is very clear, from the fact
that two bullets were found, one in Fisk S body
and one on the marble pavement, the one bull
let fitting the pistol found and the other not.
The bullet in the body fitting the pistol found,
the bullet on the floor, which produced The
wound in the arm, not fitting any pistol yet
produced. The theory is that Fisk, coming in
at the door, and seeing Stokes on the stair,
attempted TO draw his pistol, when it accident
ally discharged at the same time that he re-
ceived Stokes bullet in the arm. The parties
who removed the outside clothing of the Col
are yet to be produced in court The woman
who handed the pistol to the officer is vet to tell
how it came into her hands, with other inter
esting testimony 10 show that Stokes did not
fire on an unarmed man. But two persons
witnessed the shooting. These were two hall
boys of the Central Hotel, who were either so
frightened that they did not know what was
going on, or deliberately perjured themselves,
as they fatty contradcted each other and their
own testimony on the stand"

BURNING THE WHITE DoG.--A curious cere-
rnony was recently observed by the Onandaga
Indians near Syracuse-the burning of the
white dog. This rite seems to have an astro-
nomicai as well as a religious significance, be-
ing always observed at a certain period during
the old moon nearest to the month of Fehrua-
ry. On the day preceding the feast solemn
preparation by fasting is made. Early in the
morning of the appointed day the tribe meets
at the council house, great fires are lighted,
guns are discharged, and general jubilee af-
ter the Gilmorean model is organized dog.
pure white in color, is then strangled, the
shedding of blood being unacceptable TO the
deity honored by the sacrifice. The medicine
man then makes speech, the tribe marches
round the dead cur thrice, the medicine man
faces towards the east and throws the body
into the flames keeping up solemn and mo-
notonous chant during its incremaiion. The
dog is supposed to bear and by his death
atone for all the sins of the nation, and the
whole ceremony reminds one strongly of the
driving into the desert of the scapegoat by the
ancient Jews from whom it is claimed the
American Indians are descended.

WHAT DREAM DID Tile Fort Wayne Sen
tiqel soberly narrates the following as a fact:
a gentleman OF high social position living
in this county has son engaged clerk in
large mercantile house in Omaha. A few
weeks ago the father received letter from his
son to the effect that he had been robbed of So
900 belonging TO his employer while returning
from Il collecting trip into the country. The
father was naturally troubled by the intelli-
gence, AMI when he retired 10 his room for the
night he lay awake for some time thinking Of
the occurrence. At last he f,ll asleep, and as
il seemed to him, he was sitting By n table, in
u bed-chamber Of Hotel, of Omaha, lis
tening to the conversation Of two young men
who were recalling the particulars of a robbery
in which they had just been concerned, while
they counted over the proceeds Of the same with
an eXultant air.
Learning the number Of their room he de-
scended the stairs consulted the register, fixed
their names in memory, together with the date
under which they were written, and then
awoke. He Immediately wrote letter TO his
son requesting him to call at the - Hotel,
look ut the register, and if he fond the names
of John 3. Wilson and james Frank inscribed
on its pages under the date Of November, TO
have the parties found, arrested and charged
with theft of the FIVE thousand dollars. The
son followed the directions and from letter
itCSihcu ny tue StSAcluaI VIC iedIu lIift
the said John B. Wilson and James Frank
were arrested at the said hotel, that they con-
fessed to the felony, that $4,8l2 of the lost
money WAS recovered, and that the offenders
had been sent 10 the pentontiary.
THERE is an account in Sun Francisco ex-
change of safe which an ingenious mechanic
constructed, and declared TO be absolutely bur-
glar-proof. To convince the incrednlous Of
this fact, he placed 81 900 bill in his pocket,
had himself locked in the safe with an an pie
supply Of provisions declaring he would give
the money TO the man who unfastened the
door. All the blacksmiths and burglars and
carpenters in the State have been busy for a
week, boring and blasting and beating at the
safe, and the man is there yet. He has whis-
pered through the key-hoe that lie will make
the reward $4,000 if somebody will only let
him out. Fears are entertained that the whole
concern will have % be melted down in blast
furnace before he is released, and it is propos-
ed to pass in through the key-hole a ireproof
jacket, to protect the inventor while the iron
is melting.

THE s EN TINEL.
A Prophecy Discredited.

PHlLADELpHrA, Jan. 30 "A Catholic journal,
the Bishop -organ, having republished an ar
tce purporting to set forth the predictions of
a notable person in religion, who died several
years back in an Italian convent, to the effect
that about this time there would come, along
with wars and pestlence, an awful calamity Of
three days total darkness, during which many
people would perish Bishop Wood has is
sued circular rejecting the publication as
made without his sanction. Respecting the
prophecy itself, the Bishop advises the faith
full to calm their fears, and states that after
examining the life of the holy person to whom
the prediction is ascrbed, one whom the
church has declared venerable, nothing has
been found to authenticate such a prophecy, as
has been asserted in her name. He also re-
minds the faithful that they are required to
believe only that which is promul gated by
the church, and by obeying her precepts and
avoiding sin, they may be prepared to receive
whatever judgments God, in his wisdom,
might impose.

the rear Of the White House, at a cost
of ~thirty-nine thousand dollars, the
money in payment for which WA taken
