A waterman in Long Island sound ran
his rowboat into the body Of q woman
that was floating about with the tides
and currents. He hauled the body
aboard and it was finally deposited In
the morgue for Identification. Two wo-
men had been missing for a week or two
and one OF them was seen one night
throwing herself headlong into East
river. Her name was Hannah Roach.
was Henrietta Shaw. The body at the
morgue had a heavy gold ring on the
middle finger, on the inside Of which
was inscribed III. R.--H. ST." the latter
initials corresponding to the names OF
both women. Some female friends OF
Henrietta Shaw came to view the body.
One young girl who accompanied an
older woman had known Henrietta Shaw
well-had roomed with her in fact.
She said she recognized the features as
those Of Henrietta Shaw, but did not
recognize the hair Of the eorpse-that
being rich brown, tinged with red.
Neither did she recognize the clothing
as like any that she had ever seen Hen
rietta Shaw wear. She thought 1t might
be, and yet could not be positive. The
and went away, promising to call again
the next day, but refusing to give their
names. Now, Hannah Roach had hair
OF the peculiar red brown tinge like that
OF the corpse, but her friends were
equally uncertain and could not posi-
lively identify the remains. Hannah had
taken off and left in her room all the
rings she was known to have-and, be-
sides, the dress of the corpse was unlike
any that Hannah Roach wore at her
last place, neither was the face OF the
dead woman appeared to correspond
with that of both missing women, but
the contradictions of hair, ring and
dress made puzzle which the coroner
was not able to solve. All that could be
certainly known was N. R.-H. s."

hence we quietly awaited further devel'
opments; nor did we wait long, fol
some startling evidence of Satanic infiu-
ences soon came to relieve the monot.
ony of the moment.
Suddenly a heavy substance rolled
down the stairway, gathering and re.

smell OF blood, fell on our hands, and
by the masked light Of our dark lantern
we found that it was blood. Certainly
by this time there were tangible evi.

haunted house was we'll merited. But
we had gone there to see the show, and
so we staid to enjoy the entire pro.
After short respite the sounds began
again chain clanked slightly, and
footsteps went warily shutting about.
These sounds evidenced very intelli-

and awaited further development.
Quickly and Immediately overhead
there became evident sufficient cause
Tor us to take prompt action in the mat
ter OF defense. So a pistol shot was
fired In the direction Of the sound, and
in an instant afterward there was gen.
eral stampede OF the ghosts. Some

indianapolis and New York. James was the
New York representative. The firm of
Kingan q Co., Indianapolis was well known
throughout the country, and the enternrise
and energy displayed in its management
made the firms name household word in
that city. About two years since the firm
dissolved and James received, it is said,
about 100000 as his share at the dissolution
of the partnership. Since that time Mr..
Kingan has been alone his business un-
dertakings. r. fI esf- ~
HE WAS INSANE.
DIR. Hammond said yesterday that ne was
Kingan's physician for time, and that he
believed Kingan was undoubtedly insane,
and therefore ready prey to designing per-
sons when he met his tragic death. Some
two years ago Kingan came to him suffering
from nervous exhaustion, brought on by
mental excitement and overwork in his
hazardous speculationS. DR.. Hammond
treated him for short while and Kingan
recovered completely. About month ago
Kingan returned. The mental over-excite-
ment of the two years that had passed had
again shattered his delicate nervous system,
and he gave unmistakable indications OF a
disordered brain. DIR. Hammond strenuous
ly urged him to cease all work, TO stop going
down town. to travel and amuse
himself, and thus, through period of com
plete rest, restore his body and mind to their
healthy, normal equilibrium. BUTT was no
avail, and the inevitable consequences en-
sued. 81 have no doubt, /" said the doctor.
that he was under the influence of mental
alteration, and you will see, therefore, that
he may easily have committed suicide"
The doctor added, refectively Very few
people die from physical overwork, but a
great many are killed by mental over-excite-
ment, and Kingan was one of this large
class" Kingans insanity, while it would
account for the theory of suicide, would,
however, at the same time facilitate the de-
signs of murderous robber, who discovered
that he carried bonds Of great value upon
his person.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

Harrisburg Patriot: Now let that pesti-
lent widow desist She can't marry sena-
tor anyhow.
Memphis Avalanche: A strict though
thus far unsuccessful search is being made
for the old, moss back bourbon democrat
who would decline federal Office il proper
ly approached in back alley. Barnum
wants him.
New York World: Upon the many little
adulatory murmurs which rise like the
sounds OF q summers day to greet Governor
Hayess declaration of his policy, the letter of
William Lloyd Garrison to Senator Blaine
breaks like clap OF thunder announcing
the coming storm. II behooves all prudent
men TO pay due heed to its evil and sonor-
Gus utterances.
Baltimore Gazette: In these days there
are thick and fast flying rumors of appoint
ments by the president; Abort three,
fourths OF the men most hopefully named
are from Ohio. Now it Is possible that the
gossips are Cabling at random. Ii is ais
possible to have too much of good thing
even from Ohio. The people don't want
this government run as department Of
Ohio.
Cincinnati Enquirer: The republican
newspapers are discovering new grand
eur in Hayes every day. His'selection OF q
confederate colonel as member OF his cabi-
net seems 10 be the height OF wisdom. When
| the democratic house elected a few ex con-
| federate soldiers 10 minor positions, two
years ago. the country was turned upside
down. IL was feared then that the fruits OF
the war were entirely lost
ST. Louis Republican: II seems the report
that Bob Ingersoll would control the Illinois
| appointments was without foundation. Bob
was OF that opinion himself, up to the in
auguration, bat when the Rev. Byron
Sunderland, chaplain OF the senate, prayed
| on that day that God would "sweep away all
infdelity with its terrible brood" he con-
cluded he was not needed about president
who could subscribe to such sentiments.
New York Express: No surrender is a
cry we hear from Sag Harbor to the lakes.
IL comes 10 us from every democratic jour
mai, organization. and, as fer as we can learn,
from every democratic voter, from many re-
publicans, and from avery promnent ono

Hayes, that he will never vote another re
must be the feeling of thousands of republi
cans who believe more in fair play than in
party triumph. Pass 1t along the line, then

Albany Argus: Considering the fact thai
the pseudo president obtained admission tc
the white house by a series of lawless over
throws OF constitutions, statutes and ballot
boxes, his remarks to a delegation of colored
South Carolinians are sublimely impudent
He says that he recognizes the necessity o
protection at present until a feeling OF re-
spect for the rights OF political opponcnt'
shall be entertained by the democrats Of the
south. This from a man who has not the
slightest respect for the rights of his politi
cal opponents; nor for the requirements o.
constitution and laws nor for the verdict ol
the ballot-box. This from the chief OF Law
breakers; the sum, fruit and substance of the
most gigantic conspiracy which eve
trampled upon constitutional liberty!

No language is expressive enough to con-
vey a correct idea Of the rugged grandeur OF
the mountain scenery that surrounds US
here at Sunshine. No pen can picture the
sublime beauty of the broad and varied pan
Drama that presents itself TO the eye Of the
beholder as he stands on the summit of Lee
hill and takes in a full view OF the mountain
ranges, piled one upon the other, with peak
after peak. After feasting our eyes on the
most magnificent mountain scenery we turn
our gaze upon the far reaching
plains which spread out before u.s.
There we can see the Platte winding
its way through the desert with its many
tributaries, dotted with sparse growth OF
willows and cottonwoods, which marks its
course across the broad plain. Many of the
thriving Colombo towns are also brought so
close to the beholder as to be plainly recog
nizable. Among them are Greeley, Evans
Erie, Longmont, Denver and many others.
No American need go abroad to feast up
on famous mountain scenery, for we believe
the Rocky Mountains afford the grandest
and widest scenery the most vivid imagin-
alton can picture. besides the most magnifi-
cent natural curiosities in the world.

INDIANA CORRESPONDENTS.
KEEP POSTED.
A Correspondent Advises Democrats TO
Keep CIo.e Track of Current Events.

n
To the Editor Of the Sentinel:
SIR-I desire, by your grace, to say few
words to democrats through the medium of
your paper. 1t is Of first importance that
not only democrats, but the people gener-
ally, keep informed on matters of public
importance, or interests generally affecting
the.people. II the public could have been
correctly informed, and have known the
truths as they really were during the recent
political struggle, things would have been
far different now. But such lying sheets as
the indianapolis Journal have constantly de-
ceived many honest men who read nothing
else
Many honest republicans in the out Of the
way localities really believed Hayes was
elected because the Journal said so. The
Journal knew II was lying every time il said
=. but many who were more ignorant knew
no better. Hence the necessity Of proper
knowledge. Convince those people that they
are designing rascals and they will be power
for good. Now Ipropose to do this by plac-
ing the Weekly Sentinel in their hands. Let
active democrats see to it. and do IL at once,
that conservatives aud Independents have
the Sentinel for the coming year. IL you
can not get them to subscribe, number of
democrats make up the money and send
them the paper that there be at least seed or
nucleus in each neighborhood. Let us see
to this sure. ,'R J. NJ,
