Strange DOings in a Farmhouse.
Shrewsbury Letter to the London Daily
Telegraph. :


Shrewsbury Letter to the London Daily
Telegraph. :
In the neighborhood OF Wen, town
on the Shrewsbury and Crewe Branch
of the London and Northwestern Rail-
way, some unaccountable proceedings
are reported. At Woods Farm, four
miles from Wen, occupied by Mr..
Hampson, his wife, and two children,
and two female servants. on Thursday
last, while the family were just about to
sit down at tea, at p. NJ, when it was
still daylight, a saucepan suddenly
jumped off the fire, and this was fol-
lowed by the tea things being swept off
the table and smashed. Several pieces of
burning coal was then hurled Of the fire
and set the clothing of an infant months
old in flames, and before the clothes
could be removed the child was severe
ly burned on the hand and arm; its hair
was slinged off its head. A small Amer
lean clock on the mantlepiece was next
dached violently to the ground, and sew
eral other articles, on the mantleplece
Something was thrown against the face
of large cased clock, and shivered
the glass and case, and lamp globe and
CHI mney were smashed. The mat
of the lamp took fire from a piece
OF burning coal falling on it, and a bas-
ket on the parlor table was also discover
ed in the flames. The neighbors
wera fetched in, among
them being Mr.. Lea, neighboring
farmer, Police Constable Bowen, and
others, and although the smashing of
crockery and the hurting ofarticles from
one side of the room to the o.her con-
tinued, they could not discover the
cause. Mr.. Lea and Police Constable
Bowen were both struck by things
thrown by an unseen agency. 1t was
feared that the house would be set on
fire by the burning Goa, and consequent
ly the fire Was removed from the crate
and the furniture from the house. All
went outside, but several things we're
flung from the inside through the win
dows. In the kitchen six panes of glass
were broken and several in the parlor
otrict inquiries have been made 10y the
police and others, but there appears to
be no calculation of the mystery. Mr..
IIampson says he cannot account for it
unless it is something in the coal; but
the coal could not throw articles about
the room. The affair has caused con-
siderable talk in the neighbor',ood. and a
great amount ofincredulity is expressed,
Our correspondent, who personally visi-
Ted the house, adds that the accounts o:
the occurrence were received from sey-

LOng-agO Dwe1lers OH the Pacific.

All over the Pacific coast are to be
found indelible traces ola long-forgotten
and prehistoric race. While the inves-
tigation has been of bit comparatively
recent date, still enough has been dis
covered to show that an almost limitless
field has been so far only dipped into
few places most easy of access to the ex-
plorent. AS yet these researches have
been confined almost altogether to the
immediate coast of southern California
and to the cluster of islands lying at
short distance therefrom. These islands
Santa Rosa, Santa Cruz, Anacata, San
Miguel, and San Nicolas-which are now
almost or quite uuinhabited, and are
only used as ranges for sheep and half
wild cattle and hogs, are known to have
been densely popula ted in long ages
past, as is shown by extensive. remains

of these isolated spots has been confined

A HAPPY MILLIONAIRE.

Tho Vast Possessions Of Dr. David
Ward the Richest Man in Michigan.
From the Northwestern Lumberman.
We often see going the rounds of the
press figures showing the wealth of
Americas rich men; but the name of
DIR. David Ward is never among them.
His modesty, in this age of the world,
is certainly curiosity. In early life
Mr.. Ward saw the possibilities of wealth
that were locked up in the Michigan
forests and invested every dollar he
could spare in pine lands. He now owns
2 ,2UO,OOO,OO0 feet Of standing pine in
Michigan and Wisconsin, July three
fifth Of it being the cork variety and the
balance mostly bull sap. 1t is said that
all told he does not own I, O00, 900 feet Of
Norway. Ask any lumberman who is &C
quainted with the Michigan pineries who
owns the choice pine ofthat State and he
will answer, DR.. Ward. On the head
waters of the Manistee he has rich pos
sessions of cork pine. The axe, to him,
has been a horror, and although for
many years he has been engaged, di-
rectly or Indirectly, more or less in the
manufacture Of lumber, we believe he
has never lumbered-a traGL OF lanu eX-
cept when the timber upon it was i'm
perilled by fire from the operations Of
his neighbors. For much of his sap and
bull sap pine he has been offered IS per
thousand and from IS to So per thousand
for bis cork. Without doubt
his Michigan and Wisconsin pine, is
worth at current prices. $l5,OOo,0 900.
This, however, by no means measures
the extent of his possessions. He owns
valuable hard wood and mining lands,
which, we believe, will swell the above
amount to $25 200, 0O0.
Not cent of this colossal fortune has
been obtained in the whirlpool of de-
structive speculation. The possessor of
it has been content to wait year after year
and work as steadily as the mechanic
does who earns his daily bread. To. day
he is as fun-loving as boy and nearly as
spry as one. Go. g.. -. ~, $751;.

The Cattle Ranges.
Globe-Democrat.

DENVER, COL, February 1.-Fin
Earnest, the cattle king of Northeastern
Colorado, has just returned from the
range, after having made Il thorough in
spection of the stock and the hardships
resulting from the recent storms. He
denies the report that the cattle are
dying off, and says it emanated from
Cheyenne, and is without foundation.
''The stock" he said, lis in much better
condition that [ expected to find it.
Comparatively few deaths have oc-
CURED, and now that the weather has
moderated our herd will increase in
weight as well as in numbers. Even if
the cold weather had continued our cat
tie would have been able to withstand
one or two weeks of extreme cold before
any serious effect had been noticed. It is
true that they have drifted many miles to,
wards the mountains, and that they con-
gregate in herds i'll railroad cuts, but
this does not signify that the migration
is made for better grass. The collection
in places free from snow and wind Is
made for shelter and protection. These
facts do not necessarily indicate that the
cattle are on their last legs and resour
ces. On the contrary, they come out of
the storm in excellent shape, and unless
we have another siege of bad weather
there will be no appreciated loss, and
this snow fall will prove a benefit in
stead of an evil. The statement that 10
per cent of the cattle would die this
winter was started by the butchers for
the obvious purpose of increasing prices.
There is nothing in it. People do not
realize the enormity of such loss. 1t
is very rare in the cattle regions. Why,
the death of 10 per cent of the cattle in
Colorado would amount to 10000 head
a loss Of nearly S4OO.OOO."
