A STRANGE PHENOMENON.
The Weird Story Evoled From a
Texas Imagination.
tFrom the Gatesville (Tex.) Advance

tFrom the Gatesville (Tex.) Advanced
Last week Mrs. Reneau, who with
her husband and family lived on Cor
veil Creek, some five miles from Turn
ersville, died rather suddenly. At the
time of her death several neighbors
were present, together with the attend
ing physicians, DIR. ]. d. Galway, of
Turnersville, and DIR. Toland, of Jones'
boro. When the spirit had departed
from the body and wended its way to
the home above, a sight was seen
which, to the faithful ones who were
watching by the couch, was as startling
as it was real. The spectacle presented
itself just above the house, and was
frightful in the extrem. Six coffins of
different sizes were seen to come and
hover Immediately above the house.
The night was dark, and ordinary OBJ
jects at any distance were invisible; but
the eoffins were as plainly to be seen as
they would have been in broad day.
light, When the gaunt and CHASTITY
coffins had been visible for some time
they disappeared, and as they seemed to
glide gently upward sounds of the
sweetest and most melodious music
were heard, and seemed to accompany
the dark omens in the journey toward
the skies. We did not see any of the
parties who saw the strange phenome-
non, but no doubt can be entertained of
their veracity, or the facts regarding the
strange sight as herein stated. The
phenomenon was indeed q curious one,
and we do not remember to have ever
chronicled such rare occurance before.

"THE Democracy of Ohio should elect
their District Delegates to the National
Convention in convention called for
that purpose. In this way the people
of the counties can have more direct
expression of their sentiments on that
subject. Heretofore it has been the GUS
tom to allow the delegates to the State
Convention to meet by districts and Sc
lect delegates and thus a few Democrats
make up the State representation. We
believe that it would be more satisfacto-
ry to the people to have a convention
of the counties composing the Con-
gressional Districts called, at which
delegates to the National Convention
could be chosen to properly represent
the people ON the question of the selec-
ton of Presidential candidate. This

Some Of our esteemed contemporaries
should treat the Cash sensation in South
Carolina with extrem caution. Colonel
r. b. G. Cash, who is threatening to
burn the town of Cheraw, if his son, the
murderer of two inoffensive citizens, is
placed under arrest, is q leading Re-
publican statesmen. The murderer
himself is also an influential Republi-
can. 1t will be seen, therefore, that the
case demands careful handling by the
Northern newspaper. TO treat it in
the orthodox way of treating Southern
outrages" would not do at all. The
Richmond State supplies some infor-
nation touching the illustrious pair
which may be of service to Republican
newspapers in making up their judg-
ments:
"South Carolina is now much excited
over the Cashes-- father and son. w.
B. Cash, the son, recently shot two men,
one of whom died. He has defied ar
rest up to this time, and Colonel e. b.
G. Cash threatens to burn the town of
Cheraw, the county seat of Chesterfield
County, where these two desperadoes
live, and kill the law officers if infor-
nation is given which will lead to the
arrest of the young murderer. Colonel
Cash has long been terror to his State,
and now Cash, Junior, has developed
into even worse man, if possible than
his sire. w. b. Cash is not Demo-
crat, but an Independent, or Republi-
can, recently in the employ Of the
United States Government. A CORES
pondent gives the following facts in the
history Of this lawless Republican:
"W. Began Cash is thesa man who
was arrested here last spring for assault
ing, without justification, an old and
feeble Democrat from Fairfield County,
He is the same man who was held by
the State authorities for carrying con-
cealed weapons here in defiance of State
law. He is the same man who was de-
Tended before the Mayor and before the
Trial Justice by Mr.. William Penn Sni-
der, special counsel for the United
States in the election cases. He is the
same man who was taken out of custo-
dy of the State by the United States
authorities for the reason that he held a
Deputy Marshal's commission while
he attempted to terrorize old men in a
quiet town. He is the same man who
Immediately after his release from State
control acted as spy in Chester Coun-
ty and arrested white Democrats. His

NEAPoLIs, o., March 5.-Scarlet fever
has been prevailing here to an alarming
extent; about thirty cases here and in

the remaining cases, with two OF three
exceptions are doing well.
Strange to tell the school was kept
open till after the deaths occurred above
mentioned, when the indignation ofcer-
tain of the citizens became so great the
directors were compelled to close the
school, and it remained closed about
two weeks.
Last Monday morning in violation of

scholars present per day. 1t looks as

instead of being of the natural shape

In 1860 one dollar would give man
board for two and one-half days; in 1881
for less than one and one half days.
In 1860 one dollar would buy the
workingman nine and one quarter
pounds of roasting beet; in 1881 less
than six pounds.
In 1860 one dollar would buy 3l2 lbs.
of coal; in 1881 only 256 lbs
