SuDerstitiOn's Victim,

A colored man of Camden, N j., be.
ing out of employment, consulted a
black sorceress who had agreed to OBJ
tain for him, for a trifiing 50. a place
in warehouse. She gave him white
powder and instructed him to scatter
some of the same upon the floor of the
warehouse, when he made application
for a job. and to repeat these words:
'As the dead remain, so let them be, in
the name of the Father, the Son, and
the Holy Ghost" When the poor fel-
low sprinkled the powder, as he had
been directed, one of the warehouse
men roughly asked him why he was
soiling the floor? The question so start
led him that he ierked out: Muffin, [
want a job. Let de dead stay where
dey be in de name of de Fadder, Son,
an Holy Ghos'r' The charm was bro
ken and no employment was obtained.
He again sought the negro witch. She
told him again, for 50, that he must
walk, without food or drink, from Mar
ket street ferry, Philadelphia, to 65th
street and back, and he would be made
the president of a great railroad. The
deluded wretch did as he was told. He
walked mile further. With blistered
heels and cavernous stomach he return
ed to Camden, and under close ques-
tioning from his oracle confessed that
he had walked the additional mile.
Again was the charm broken. To do
penance for disobedience of instruc-
tions he again set out upon a longer
tramp than the one to Goth street. and
for additional safety he carried around
his neck a toad's heart hanging by q
string. This time he ate cents worth
of bread. Again was the spell broken.
''The spirits of the air, the sea and the
planets say that you have deceived them
and you are undone," cried the wizard
when she heard the third confession.
'Den gimme back dat var money-gim-
me cash." cried the colored man. ~ Sc
sore in de feet and sore in de back, and
l amt president yet" He hied him to
justice and caused the sibyfs arrest,
and she was fined for obtaining money
by fraud committed in protesting to
work charms by occult and crafty sci
ence. The credulous Senegambian had
lingering hope that he would have a
partial success at least in his endeavors,
and continued to practice one other
charm. He swallowed three grains of
sand regularly every three hours, say
ing, as he did so: Gas the dead remain,
l shall live and prosper. Amen" Atlast
accounts he was still swallowing sand.

A negro at Louisville could not be
placed under the influence of ether and
anasthetics when physicians desired to
perform surgical operation upon him,
and so one of the doctors mesmerized
him and kept him under mesmeric in
fluence for two hours, or until the opera
ton was over. When the patient was
aroused he stated that he had all the
time been conscious of what was going
on, but had felt 40 pain.

InPennsylvania, at least love-making
on Sunday is legal. 1t has so been de-
cided by the Supreme Court of thatState
on a recent breach of promise case, in
which the defendant set up the plea that
the proposal was not binding, as it was
made on Sunday. The court said that
in courting no Sunday law could be ap-
piled, and gave the girl verdict for
$998.75. 1t is well for young men to

There is probably more monkey busi-

other department of the Government.

PEELED President Arthur 70 decide on a
step toward the transfer of the Indians
to the War Department. This, how
ever, can only be done by Congress.
The President viii soon order General
Miles to make an investigation among
the Indians, that all details OF their
treatment, needs and wants may be
learned. The selection has fallen upon
Miles because Of his success in dealing
with the indians both in war and peace.
In mnny instances where regular Indi-
an Inspectors have been dispatched on
such missions they have either been
deceived or have sold themselves to the
persons whom they we're sent to inspect.
Gen. Miles, being proof against both
cunning and corruption, is admirably
fitted for this service, and may be re-
lied upon to obtain accurate informa'
ton regonidn.

markably fine.
1t is well known that minute metal
lie particles are often collected in places
remote from terrestrial sources of dust.
Recent investigation shows that many
of these particles must have undergone
fusion, which evidently proves that
they have come from the smoke Of fac

had m eteoric origin. 1t is found by
chemical analysis that, that in addition
to iron, they contain nickel and cobalt,

Chi-Delta Entertainments

The Chi-Delta Society is noted for the
pleasant and profitable entertainments which
it has always given to the public. The one
given last night at the society hall on the
hill, fully sustained its well earned reputa-
ton for literary treats. The hall has just
been beautifully repapered and the ceiling
kalsomined and other improvements made
which add vastly to its already attractive
appearance; and this attractiveness was
vastly augmented by the score of beautiful
young ladies who graced the hall with their
presence. The exquisite floral crescent
which adorned the speakers stand, Was the
work of some of Cbi-Deltas young lady
honorary members. Of these Jealous advo-
Gates of her cause Chi-Delta may well feel
proud. Misses Hattie Park, Lora Nichol-
son, Bette Park, Edith Lockett and Lille
Rogers are entitled to the most profuse
thanks of the society for the flowers which
they presented.
The house was called to order by the pres
dent, r. F. O'Neal The literary exercises
were then begun. without attempting q
lengthy criticism of these, we simply state
that they were most creditable. Mr.. ]. w.
Shipe delivered an Grafton, and Mr. J. N
Bogart followed with an essay. The decla-
nations of NJ. B. Ochs and P H. wofford
were both entertaining. The debate was on
the question Should women be allowed
the right of sufrage?" Messrs. Sanford and
Mason represented the affirmative, and
Messrs Crutcher and Humes the negative.
Col Moses White, an ex-member, made
some interesting remarks.
The President gave his decision of the
question in the negative.
The Weekly Crescent was read by the ed
ditor, W. B. Kennedy, after which the So
ciety adjourned.

Gard of Thanks.

MR- EDITOR: Please permit me to re-
turn my sincere thanks and gratitude to the
Daughters of Zion and Mrs. Galloway for
their unceasing care and devotion to my
wife during her short, but severe illness.
Words cannot express the feelings of my
heart to them. From first to last she was
attended to by them increasingly, until her
remains were removed to their final resting
place-the cemetary of the Daughters of
Zion, of whom she was member. May
God reward them, as I cannot. Without
their aid and assistance 1 would
not have known what to have
done. Again 1 hereby tender them my
most sincere thanks, forever remembering
their devotion and kindness to myself and
little daughters in this our sad bereavement
and affection. Sincerely,
LAWSON IRWIN.
