AWARNING TO TANNER.
The Fate of a Man JVh0 EndeaUored to Ldee
Forty Days Without Food.

The Fate of a Man JVRO Emde0UOred to Lfee
Forty Days Without Food.
On Sept. l, 1870, John French, son of
Judge French, of Hagerstown, died from the
effects of a fast of forty days. For two or
three years previous it had been noticed that
he had peculiar views upon religious subjects,
and had great anxiety about his future state.
but it was not surmised they were imbe,lded
very deeply or to such an extent to affect
his mind. On the contrary, being more tn ian
usually gifted with intelligence and acuteness,
credit was given him for more
than the usual amount of common
reasoning sense. He, however, be-
came fond of reading works on theoretical re-
ligion, and to such an extent did he become alb
sorbed in them that his brain gave way and
reason, at least upon religious subjects. took
fight. Whilst laboring urder this misfortune,
he became impressed with the idea that he had
some special religious task to perform which
forty days. which fast he began
July 12, 1870, and actually finished August
81, every effort made during that
time to induce him to eat utterly failing, and
those who were in close contact with him all
the time say that not a mouthful of food passed
his lips. Strategy, after persuasion had ex-
hausted itself, was resorted to. Tempting
inviting manner, WAS placed in his
way, and in such manner
as to lead to the impression that itb
presence was unknown to all but himself. Yet
he refrained from partaking of it in every in
stance. The fruit was counted and food weighed
but in no case was there discovered any dimin-
ution of it. OF course during this time he
was very much reduced, looking more like a
skeleton than living human being. Nature
at length could stand the strain no longer, and
a few days before the expiration of
tho forty days he was COM
PEELED to take his bed. Here it was found i'm
possible to use any means to compel him to par
take of any nourishment until the forty days
expired when he placed himself voluntarily at
the disposition of his physicians, and said he
was hungry. He was then fed with great care,
but his system had sunk too deeply to recup-
crate.
There are very few people in the community
where French lived who doubted that he did
what he professed to undertake. Namely, !"
with the exception of drinking freely of
water and smoking moderately, to act
ually live forty days and nights with
out tasting food. 1t was pronounced by
physicians at the time to be one of the ex-
trenely few cases of extended fasting
which had come to the knowledge of the
world. DR.. Fred Dorsey, of Hagerstown, first
visited him August 81, 1870, when he claimed
to have completed his fast of forty days and
nights. The doctor, who is practicing medi-
cine sJill in Hagerstown, says he was then a
mere skeleton. He died September l, 1870

JIM HOLT.
A Kentucky Waif Who Needs a Home
Chance for the Charitable

will you give me q cigar IL will pay you
for it tomorrow" was the salutation which q
coatless, hatless, barefooted boy gave GLOBE
reporter on Wabashaw street at midnight a
night or two since.
The reporter looked at his questioner, and re-
cognized in him waif he had found floating
about the city on Sunday. The boy has found
temporary care at Booths restaurant, No. II
Wabashaw street, and last night the reporter
had quite a talk With him. He gives his name
as Jim Holt, age thirteen, and says he ia from
the Big Sandy region of Kentucky.
Where is your father?'
Hes dead,'' was the reply. in a peculiarly
plaintive tone.
Where is your motber!'
"She's dead," was similarly answered.
'When did she dieT'
Last year, about July.'

Eyes, sIr, pretty near
What was the matter with themi''
"They said it was yellow fever" this answer
being with the peculiar plant which marked
his response when he said his father and moth
er were dead.
Further talk revealed the fact that some fam
lily had removed to Minnesota from Kentucky,
and he had come with them. His brother, John
Holt, twelve years old, Jim is thirteen, he said
he had left at Minneapolis. He hoped he
would be able to nnd him, he said, when he
went back. Where he spent last winter, he
does not know, only that it was
at a store 800 miles from here.
The conductors have passed the little waif
and he says he has never paid any Car fare at
all. As it was about midnight the reporter
asked him why he didn't go to bed.
Il don't go TO bed until three o'clock" he
said.
Cant you go to sleep before 8 clock?
No sir; that was the time my father went to
bed"
What time do you get up in the morning2"
"Oh, have to get up early to sell papers.
got up at 5 O'Clock yesterday and they said I
was too late."
The sleeplessness is something peculiar in
the boy. One night about midnight he was
told it was o'clock and he had better go to
bed. He accordingly went up stairs to bed,
but returned in half an hour saying it was not
3 o'clock and he could not sleep. He is up, as
he says, early in the morning.
The little fellow says he wants to get some
work but don't know where to go. He has
never been TO school and canno: read word.
BE is white headed, thin and poor and de-
cided object for some philanthropical person.
The reporter spent an hour in questioning him
and submits him to the good people of Sc.
Paul as puzzle, He can be found at Booth 8
restaurant.

Reporter-"What do You think about the

Senator McDonald-"It is 80 early in the

faith that is in us, or to drop the scripture,
the confidence that I, in common with all the
Democrats, have in the success of the Gin

it is only possible to get the drift of public
sentiment from private expressions of opin-
ion.''
"What is the feeling in your own Slater"
"The Cincinnati nominations were re-
ceived with great enthusiasm throughout the
State, which has increased as the people have
had time to quietly consider them. The
more people think about them the better
they like them."

They have come to the sensible conclusion
that their objects can be best secured by
legislation, and that in the restoration of the
Democratic party to power the interests of
the people will be best subserved.'
''But it is said that placing Mr.. English
on the ticket is very unpopular with the
Greenback element"
"That is not the case with the Indiana
Greenbackers. They know English as a
man who has risen among them by his own
efforts, and, while he is connected with a
national bank, they are able to discriminate
between the system and the man. They are
opposed to the present banking system, as
indeed, are many wise and good men of both
parties. They do not base their opposition ur-
on the management of every particular bank.
1t is the principle for which they are COZ
tending, that the government should issue
all the money. 1t Is absurd to suppose that
the Indians. .greenbackers hold VIM. Fl. Eng
