A Dangerous Whira.

Dangerous Wh1mS
Officer Gillespie, of San Francisco,
was recentlv waited on by a woman
named Mcconnell, who resides on Mis-
Eion street, and who stated that she
wanted him to take charge of her hus-
band, who was on the street, armed
with an AK, and threatening the lives
of those who passed by.sj The officer
went to the place designated, and there
saw Mcconnell, whose first name is
James and who is a blacksmith by oc-
cupation, standing on the sidewalk with
an uplifted ak in his right hand.
The officer took charge of tbs snan and
conveyed him to the Central Station,
where he was examined and found to
have received two wounds, in the
back of the right hand and on the upper
part of the left shoulder. The prisoner
was charged with assault with deadly
weapon, and after his wounds, which
are very slight, were dressed, he was
| questioned, and said: "This whole
| thing arises from the fact that some one
| had connected an electric battery, or
| something of that sort, with my bed
| last Monday night. I don't know ex-
| actly what it was, but it was q sort OF
cross between an electric light box ant
| a telephone, from which numerous
streams of electricity darted and dis
! turbed me- This was going on all the
| time. vet my wife could not see the
light, which lit up the place more brill
| liantly than the sun. / went out and
watched and saw my neighbors throw
ing electric balls and darts at my house.
| I came here to-day to complain to the
! Chief of Police, but went away, as l was
| satisfied | wouldn't get much satisfac-
! ton anyhow. Tonight | got the az
| and saw the fe1lers at the same work
! again, so / determined to stop every one
who came along to find out if they had
| ANYTHING to do with the electric current,
and halted every one that came along
! but every time I raised the ak to strike,
| dart of electricity was thrown at me
and that made my arm powerless
Some people say had the Jim-jams, but

He Acknowledged the Corn.
It has always been thought that ears
of corn have an even number of rows,
and that one with an odd number of
rows would be an impossibility. In
slavery times this question was dis
cussed, and a negro in this country
/ claimed that he had seen ears of that
kind. His master told him that he
would give him his (the negro's) free
dom for an ear with an odd number Of
rows This was in the early spring;
but in the fall, during corn gathering
time the negro came with a sound ear
with thirteen rows. He got his free
papers. A long time afterward the
negro told that in roasting time he took
a sharp knife, cut out one row of grains.

where to find it when gathering time

THE TICKLE HElRESS.

New York, Nov. 2O.-Mrs. Bergman,
the Philadelphia heiress whose husband
and friends have been endeavoring to
have her return to Philadelphia, was in the
supreme court this afternoon on writ Of
habens corpus, directing Police Commits
sioner French to produce her in court.
Mr.. French made return to the writ,
stating that the lady was not detained
in cusody, but was at liberty to leave
the police headquarters whenever she
liked. Mrs. Bergman supported this
statement, and was allowed to go.
Mrs. Bergman drove away in charge
of Police Commissioner French and Dr..
Hammond to Jersey City. MIR. French,
on his return, said she had not been
placed in an asylum, but had been left
with friends who were solicitous for her
welfare: During the day Mrs. Bergman
was visited by several physicians, and
their unanimous opinion was that owing
to her misguided information she was
not responsible for her actions, though
otherwise sane, and with rest, quiet and
proper treatment her recovery would be
complete i'll short time.

Land Swindlera,

Cincinnati, Nov. 23--A. J. Tullis, law
yer, and Jacob Nine, who were indicted
by the grand jury for forgery, have been
arrested, and Cornelius McGolderiek, as
sociate, will also be arrested to-day. The
torgeries of which they are charged, are
of startling character, being the deeds
to large quantities of land owned by an
eccentric millionaire, jeremiah Fullis,
who died two years ago. Some 10000
Fort Dodge, have been thus fraudulently
conveyed, and innocent parties now oc-
cupying property and other lands in II.
linois, Missouri and Tennessee, have been
similarly disposed of. The method was
to make deed from Fullis to McGold.
erick, dated year or two before Tullis
death, then McGolderick would deed il
to another Of the party, and then il
would be sold to innocent victims.

A rather GOOD but tardy story comes
from an Indiana town. The democrats
of the village shared the confidence of
their distinguished statesman, William

placed loaded cannon on the town
square. and patiently awaited the news,
It came-and the democrats skunk home,
