WITTCHCRAFT REMEDIES.

PrrTsBURo, Pa, Oct. 26.-Nst long
since an information was made before
Deputy Mayor Pontor, charging Peter
Ammon with being a witch doctor. The
bill was sent to q grand jury, and true
bill has been found. The information
was madc by a Mrs. Mcdonald. of the
East End. One of Ammon's patients,
Mrs. Engle, of East Liberty, died re-
GENTLY. Mrs. Mcdonald, who was
charged with having bewitohed the wO-
man, took it up to the Deputy Mayor.
Her account of tho treatment prescribed
by the alleged doctor is horrible story,
and were it not that there have been va
rious cases before that are vOuched for
by good authority, there certainly would
be room for doubling it. Portions of it
are unfit for publication. Some Of the
incantations were of a most ludiCrOuS
character, but had to be followed out
with the utmost sOlemnity and precis-
ion. One was that the servant girl
should get up at II O'Clock every night
and begin to sweep the floor. She was
to sweep the dirt into the darkest cor
ner of the room, where it must remain
undisturbed for nine days. At the end
of this time the husband was directed
to get up at midnight and beat this
dust with two broomsticks, and keep it
up vigorously for three hours. This had
to be repeated nine nights in success
sion. At the end of this time no i'm
provement was noted and another Be-
ries of work Vas inaugurated. Broom

and windows for the witch to ride
through. This was bad enough, but not
half as bad as his alleged medical treat
ment. The most revolving land nausea
ting potions possible to conceive Of were
prepared and the poor woman COM
pelied to drink them. Then there were
powders, supposed to be composed of
dried lizards, livers, smoked brains, cat
tongues, frogs claws, cats hearts, ba-
bies' hair, blood of murdered people,
and other equally rev olting things. had
to be taken at certain hours and while
the incantatlons were in progress. 1t is
not known if these were given, but they
are reported by his patients to be in his
category of remedies. After about four
weeks of this treatment the woman
died.

BVsINEss.LIKE WARRIORS.

The English War Office is considering
the propriety of making money grant
to the officers and men of the Egyptian
expedition, 50 as to reimburse them for
any pecuuiary loss they sustained. This
would seem a proper thing to do. The
expedition was doubtless founded on
commercial principles for a commercial
end, and it would not be fair to let
those who brought it to successful is

of the barracks to field duty. the sol

have cost them money and which are

was something remarkable. Deeds OF
daring were little thought Of as COM

There was no enthusiasm, no rivalry
and not a bit of excitement. The troops
went at the rebellion exactly as force

the cause was not one to elicit from
them more than . simple performance

Gladstone, in replying to Sir Stafford
NorthcOte, while the judicial proceed
ines we're pending, said it would not be
possible TO give the date ON which he
woul j be willing to discuss the question
of the surrender of Arabi Pasha to tho
Egyptian government for trial and pun
ishment. He said Arabi would certainly
not be put to death. unless the British
government was first consulted. Lord
| Randolph Churchill moved that the
House adjourn, seeing that the state
ment of the premier was so unsatisf ac-
tory. it was most necessary that an early
date for the discussion of affairs in Egypt
be fixed by the House, including the
| question of the surrender of Arab.
NorthcOte said he desired to advise that
the motion be withdrawn. Discussion
could be had tomorrow without further
discussion if the motion of Churchill be
voted down.
