LINCOLN MATeRlALlzED.
Extraordinary Spirit Man ifestatlons Ia
Philadelphia.

DR.. Henry T. Childs is authority for
the statement that at the recent n
held in the house OF Mr.. Nelson Holmes,
No. 80 North Ninth street, Philadel-
phia, where the spirit OF Katie King APP
peared, among the visitors from the
| other world was the late President Lin
coin. On Thursday evening, June llth.
IL persons besides the medium satfor an
hour and a half without any manifesto
tons. They wsro told that the spirits
were trying to materializs Mr.. Lincoln.
and that II the same persons would
meet on Sunday evening they hoped 10
succeed.
Accordingly, on the following Sunday
the party met, Mr.. Stsnerson, Swedish
Minister to the United States, also being
present. When the doors Of the cabinet
opened. Katie King and her father, John
King, appeared. After a brief time
they stepped aside and gave room to the
form Of Abraham Lincoln. DIR. Childs
a y that the Presidents face was I'M
mistaksable. and that he was clothed in
beautiful white raiment. He waved his
hand, but did o speak. BY his side.
on the left. stood a fne-looking negro
fellow, his head coming to q little above
Mr. Lincoln's shoulder. These figures
appeared n second time, and upon n
OF the gentlemen present asking whether
the taller form was really that OF Abra-
ham Lincoln. 1t nodded its head in the
Affirmative. There was n third attempt
to show Lincoln with the American flag
in his hand, but though the apParition
was there, both the figure and the flag
we're indistinct. At another time Gen.
Rawlins. formerly Secretary Of War,
came and spoke q few words.
DIR. Childs gives MI account OF an
other sitting. at which Vice President
Henry Wilson. Geo. W. Childs, the
publisher of the Philadelphia Ledger,
and Mr.. Drsxlsr, the banker, were pres.
emit by invitation. Katie King material
izsd and came out OF the cabinet and
convsrssd with the gentlemen some
time. She shook hands with the Vice
President, but not with the others. Mr..
Wilson being the favored person in tho
party. should return the compliment by
making u pubic cortineauoh VI "iss
Kings ghostiness n genuinensss'
Katie, DIR. Childs says, on several eeca-
sions has stepped into the cabinet bear
ing a bouquet in her hands at least SIX
inches in diameter, n standing with
the door open so that she could be
plainly seen, has gradually faded away
until shs entirely disappeared, and with
her would appear the bouqast. After a
few minutes there would gradually reap
pear near the floor the bouquet and q
hand, and then her fern would rise up
and walk out into the room, talk, and
allow itself to be felt the door Of the
eabinst being open all the time.
1t will be remembered that Mrs. Ross
Church testified OF the London Katie
King that she placed her hand under
Katis's dress and felt her nude flesh md
the beating Of her heart. DR.. Childs
says that he asked Katie in Philadelphia
to let him feel her pulse. She held iorth
n beautiful white arm. lo placed MS

A rEnnfpLE waoNa,

That vilsr than ths vilsst lying eireti'
lar which svsr dissrsced a State or pso-
pie, a sheet controlled by Mr.. AdolpA
sutro and associates. yesterday pup
lishsd a libel which stamps 1t with an
ea.csabl. brand OF infamy. W. aiiua'
TO an article against a well-known citizen
and respected business man OF Storey
county. Mr.. James G. Fair. We will not
,.n..i the assertions or insinuations
.bieb n made. They are worthy their
.oure.. and in their origin bstray the
ba..p.ss Of the motives which actuats
N. management OF that blackmailing
sheet. This morning, the Dependent,
finding it was trsadinC upon a volcano,
which might at any moment burst forth
in furious eruption, takes back its
dam.able ISLANDERS, and tries to apologize
for the infamous lies it told yesterday.
But il Is too late. That journal claims 10
circulate in every county, town and ham,
let OF this State. II such be the case,
the lie 1t published yesterday has been
read by many hundred people. The
damnabls suspicion thus aroused has
been discussed by all its readers and
those with whom they have convsrssd,
and no denial now can make amends for
such an outrage upon Mr.. Fair. The
poisoned shafts Of inusndo and direct
attack have been sent broadcast. They
stamp that sheet with infamy and its
proprietors Of a crime worse than that
Of a cold.bloaded murderer. On a street
rumor which it is "unabls to trace to
any responsible source" Mr.. sutro's
organ editOrially accused a man OF an
act the blacklist in the calendar OF hui
man crimes. II cannot make amends
therefor, even though 1t print dsnials oil
It's allegation for a thousand years to
come.

ALIVING WONDER.
A Child Two and a Half Years Ola
Which Weighs 11e Pounds.

[Glasgow (Ky.) Times.
Our town has been for the past two
DAYS unusually excited over the arrival
of the child wonder, in the person of
Dero Edward Chambers, who has here
tofore had mention in the columns OF
the Times.
Dcro Chambers the subject of this
notice, was born in Barren county, on
Skegg's Creek, on the 18th day of
August, 1871, and at tho time of birth
was characterized by nothing unusual
to ordinary children. When about
three months old he began to feshen,
and soon began to attract serious atten-
ton Of his parents and immediate
friends. His accumulation of fat has
been uninterrupted,a land now he exhibits
an obesity of huge aldermanic p1opor-
tions.
We visited him on yesterday and
made a careful examination and meas
urement, which we give to the curious
public. His parents are the reverse OF
their infantile representative SO far as
physical proportion is concerned. Inc
father, Smith f. Chambers, is a deli
cate, spare made man of not vigorous
look, and weighs 127 pounds; the
mother is small, delicately built, and
weighs LA pounds.
Dero, the young giant, stands in per-
pendicular measurement thirty-seven
inches. The measurement around the
waist is ten and 4 halt inches, and
above the elbow sixteen and half
inches. The leg around the calf gives
circumference eighteen inches, and
the thigh the enormous length around
of twenty-eight and three-quarters,
while the hips take forty-eight inches
of tape to circuit their hugeness.
Around the waist he shows girth of
forty-two inches. His avoirdupois
pulls down the scales easily at 1881
pounds. The child is quite intelligent,
can walk with much easier focomotion
than his ponderous, unshapely form
would indicate, and enjoys very good
health. For a child OF his age, being
as before stated only two and a half
years old, he bids fair, if his life is pro-
Ionged a year or two to become one of
the most noted human wonders of
the age. His parents are possessed
Of only this living child, although
they have had three others all
dying early. One of the deceased
children was very similar to the one
now exercising the curiosity of our peo-
pie.

tall, bluc-cycd spirit standing by him,
with light side whiskcrs and hair part

inquired Il man ut his side, in II synlpa~
thctic whisper. "I<now him? guess l
DO" replied the unhappy man, wiping
his eyes. "lIe was engaged to my wife.
If he hadn't died he would have been
her husband instead of me. Oh,

voice chokcd with emotion, "why did

AN IDEA FOR TRANSFERS.

A great deal of labor and Juggling
may be saved if every wagon Or truck
is provided with 100 feet of rope and a
single pulley. A snatch block is the
best arranged with Il strong hook, and
the usual construction for slipping the
tight of the rope under the strap to the
sheave instead of waiting to reeve the
line through on end. If II wagon gets
stuck in heavy mud or in the snow, the
driver has only to Eastcn his block to
the tongue, reeve the rope through it,
and attach one end to Il tree or post
and let his team pail on the other.
Their work is of course just halved, or
rather they bring twice as much power
to bear in dragging the wagon clear.
There are plenty of other applications
for this simple device, which will read
lily suggest themselves. With Il couple
of skids for AN inclined plane, heavy
logs could easily be drawn on Il sleigh
by the unhitched team.
Another case where it is likely to be
useful is when loaded slcighs attempt
to cross II wooden bridge. Although
the horses draw the load very easily
over the snow, they are often unable
to start it over the generally denuded
wooden flooring of the bridge, and
hence would be materially aided by the
tackle hitched on rs we have described.
