IT WAS Nor A SUICIDE.
Mr.. a. NJ. Pcrrottct's Friends Say That
His Death Was AccidentaI-Iiis Expert
cuce na n SulritupIlge,

Mr.. a. NJ. PcrrOttct's Friends sRy Tint
His Death Was Acciiental-Iiis Expcri-
cnce as "a Spirituniiat.
A reporter of rHE REPUBLICAN, called yes
tcrday upon Mr.. n IIorshler, Of tho war
department, who has Just returned from New
York, whittier he went TO bury his friend,
A. NJ. Porrottet. Inquiry was made Of Mr.
lIorshlor whether ho had learned anything
more of the Causes which impellcd his friend
to commit suicide.
But he did not commit suicide, n;said Mr..
Horshler.
"How did you make that discovery"
"Therc were several circumstances, of
which | learned whom | reached Now York,
which convinced me, and convinced Mr.. Per-
rottot's, friends generally, that ho did not
! take his own life. He had bought q ticket for
Washington, and had caused his trunk to DO
checked for this place Sunday night. At IL
o'clock Monday morning he went to the hotel
| and said ho was very much in need of sleep,
and asked not to be disturbed. He un-
doubtedly took some laudanum to
mako him sleep, and he did sleep
all that day and until midnight
! for his snoring was heard at that time. He
must have awakened after midnight, and
finding that it was still night, and being un-
able to sleep, took more laudanum, and un-
! Intentionally so much that he never woke
up / am sure that he would have written
| to me if it had been otherwise, for | was
nearer to him than anyone else. His father,
mother, sisters and brothers wero all dead.
| He had an uncle living in suburb of Chicago
but he was not intimate with him."
SIS it not possible that his spiritualistic
experiences made him melancholy, and
might they not have led him to kill him
| self?n
"Quite the contrary. He was not melan-
choly, and know that he looked forward to
and hoped for long life. Spiritualsm does
not tend to unbaance mans mind. 1t is
not an emotion like some phases of religion.
| 1t is rather u science--a thing to be studied
Belief in spiritualism is no moro likely to
make man insane than belief in geology"
In tho conversation which followed, Mr..
Hershlor stated that his friends experience
had been much the same rs his own. Neither
of them had ever seen what is called u
naturalization of spirits or had been accus-
toned to attend the seances of professional
mediums. Mr.. Perrottet had became u
Mason within short time, and had often
spoken to his friend of the pleasure
which he anticipated in studying in
the Masonic library here, which is
especially rich in works upon the occult
knowledge of the eastern nations. He was
satisfied that much of the strange and un-
accountable power of tho Indian magicians
was the result of the control of an inferior
order OF spirits. Mr.. Hershler said that to
spirituaIi3ts especially self murder was n
crime only less in degree than the murder of
another, and to them of all mon therefore sui-
eide was most abhorrent.

ton rs 2 reform candidate and others to re-
frain from voting.
As to tho expectations Of tho two parties,
the republicans fully believe that they will
come into the city with majority OF ,OOO or
moro. They count on substantial gains III
the democratic shore counties; expect the
four western republican counties of Garrett,
Allegheny, Washington, and Frederick to
give llolton over 1000 majority, and that
Prince George st. Marys, and Charles VIII
largely increase the majoritics they gave in
the congressional contest of 1882. They hope
in Wow of the prospect of fair election IN
the city, to keep McI.anes majority down to
something like that latrobe had over Heis-
kcll, and, in short, to make 1t very close
thing, with fair chances that Holton may be
elected.
The democrats do not concode that tho
republicans will carry the state outside OF
Baltimore but they do not seem very conf
dent upon this point. They claim at the
worst McIanos majority will not be less than
that he will receive in the city, which they
claim will be 5000 and upward. They claim
good wouling majority in the house of
representatives and the senate by at least two
majority. The truth is probably somewhere
between the two estimates.
My own conclusions, drawn from what 1
have seen and heard in different parts of the
state during the past few weeks, is that Me-
Lane will be elected governor, it may possi-
bly, DO by small majority, but think IL
will be by from 6,000 upward. |
think the republicans will probably carry the
senate and have the largest representation
in the house of representatives they have had
for u long series of years. | do not think
Holton's election hopeless. and my prognos.
tication of his defeat has been based upon
something in which ] may be mistakcn--that
is. on my lack of belief in the frmness of the
reform wing of the democracy in resisting
the powerful appeals that have been made tc
their partisan feelings in tho last ten days.

How LIthosrapMy Was Discovered.


After the first triumphant performance of
Mo2art's opera, don juan" at Munich, the
thoatcr was deserted by all except one man.
Alois Sennciolder had still much to do. After
seeing around the stage that no sparks had
ignited, he retired to his room to stamp the
theater tickets for the following day. As he
entered the room ho had three things in his
hand-a polished milestone for razors, IA
ticket stamp moistened with printers ink,
and choque on the theater treasury for his
weekly pay. He placed tho check on the
table, when gust of wind took it, swept it
high up in his room, and then deposited il in
basin filed with water. Scnnefelder took
the wet paper, dried it as well as he could,
and then, to make sure of it, weighted it
down with the wet milestone, on which he
had before carclessly placed tho printing
stamp. Returning to his room on the follow
ing morning he was surprised to see the let
tcrs of the stamp printed with remarkable
accuracy upon tho damp paper. He gaaed
long ut the check; sudden thought flashed
through his brain he wondered If by some
such means he could not save himself tho
weary trouble he continually had of copying
the songs of tho chorus. That very morning
he went out and purchased larger stone
and commenced to mako experiments, and
finally succeeded in discovering tho art o.
