Alleged Supernatural Gifts.

One of the most remarkable cases OF
the exercise of alleged supernatural
gifts has recently been unearthed BY a
correspondent in Shropshire, England.
Emma Davies, young nurse gill but
thirteen years old, sighed to conquer
other worlds beside the somewhat lin
tied one over which she presided, and
one night resolved to strike out in an
original line. She heard her ompau-
ions speaking of moving chairs and
tables, and furniture of all kinds mvs-
teriously, by dextsrity of the hand, and
practiced the art until she became pro-
hcient enough to herself
as a full ledged medium. She went
around among the credulous peasantry
practicing the deception, and her fame
spread. Upon the slightest prete6t the
deeds OF the little nurse girl we're mag.
nifed, and the child, finding herself the
observed of all observers, with some de-
gree OF cleverness jerked about books,
buckets and small articles of furniture.
Tales of pigs standing on their heads
when she commanded, rats and mice
appearing from their recesses and 9TH
wonderful stories brought down upon
her the more enlightened reporter, and
he hal witnessed some of her al
legged supernatural powers, he quietly
exposed the whole thing. Miss Davies
has fled, no one knows whittier.
