THE FACT.
Mr.. George ". Allen, one Of our
best known citizens, furnishes Us the
facts Of this peculiar case. They are
as follows:
This forenoon, ct the house Of VIM.
Giddings, in Aliens addition to the
Twelfth ward, sudden aud unsooount-
able oommotion commenced with the
furniture. Chairs went suddenly from
the floor up to tho ceiling, and ono
broke in falling back to the Aoor.
Crockery would ay from the chiua-
closet ont upon tho floor and break in
pieces. The teakettle flew of the stove
and upset. with its scalding water, up
on Mrs. Giddings, scalding her badly.
An oil lamp flew from the shelf aud
broke in pieces upon the floor. Cook
ing vegetables few from the stove over
the floor. A pail filed with earth
and flowers was taken from the door
and
FLEW OVER A FENCE
into the next yard. On being brought
back again it went flying over the
same fence. Wood from pile went
flying over the fence.
The floor of the house was 6}led
with the debris OF broken chairs, crock
cry, etc., etc. The women Of the neigh
borhood all gathered there and were
terribly frightened They sent for
Messrs. George W. Allen and his
brother Rufus Allen, who happened to
be down at their tannery. They went
in and saw the destruction, but believed
nothing az to the causes, but saw the
results: While Mr.. George w. Allen
was counselling the women to dismiss
their fears, the iron ladle-hook used to
remeve covers from the stove, and
which was resting on the stove hearth,
flew and 49,.
STRUCK HIM ON TIE LEG
with considerable force. No one was
as near the stove as himself, and he
was ten feet away from it. Soon a
newl y-made pie, standing upon a table,
few past him and smashed up against
the stove. Ho retrcated from the
room simply to prevent being hit by
these unaccountablo manifestations.
That things occurred without human
agency is vouched for by scores Of eye
witnesses Who are beyond impeach-
ment.
no HUMBUG.
AL Of the above Mr. Allen is will
ing to testify to. How to account for
it he cannot tell, unless it is by electric
ity. This docs not appear very reason
able, however. How could electricity
so suddenly take possession of one
house, end cause pots Of earth to fly
over fences cords Of wood to fly over
fenccs-ncwly made pics to prance
around the room, and things in general
to give a private sort Of circus
Wt]l, If it isn't electricity, is it
spirits? Real, genuine ghosts? Who
can account for it It's a lively sub
jeet, any how.

quarters at Waterloo, lows, was trying
one Of his machines on Oscar Ayers
place, last week, when DR.. Thornbill
went out to see it work. Not think
ing to buy, as he had nearly finished
his cutting. Mr.. Herrick represented
that the machine, with two binders,
could cut and tie up twelve acres per
day. To test the matter, the Doctor
told him it. he would take the Harves.
ter out to his Dexter Farm, and cut
twelve acres, and have it bound in the

ACRES Of Rio Grande wheat in HIGHT
HOURS, and that the grain was we'll
bound in the same length Of time, by
TWO MEN.
Further, that in my judgment. the
said wheat will yield an average Of
twcnty bushels per acre; that it was
fully ripe, all of it leaning, and not q
little crinkled; that the ground was
nearly new, and consequently some
what rough that tue grain was clean
ly and evenly cut, and bound with less
waste than ordinarily occurs in taking
up utter a reaper; that tho weather
was excessively hot, the Thermometer
indicating 1909 in the shade, and that
the work was done with comparative
ease, by both men and team. In ac-
cordancc with ny agreement to pur-
chase the muchinc, in case it would
cut twelve acres in as many hours, and
the same be bound by two men, l &C.
copied it with pleasurablo satisfaction,
and have bought two more for next
years use. : "<
