terrify anybody, except the certain

. The Female Husband vs. the Lu
minous Tree.
A recent copy Of the Tuscaror:
Times Review contains the follow
ing:
That tsuth is stronger than fic-
ton we are not prepared to admit
notwithstanding the antiquity of
the adage. We surmise that it is
so conceded more from the prone
ness of the human mind to accept
fiction as truth, and the reverse,
than the result of human obserya-
ton and experience. Some five or
Six Years ago the Times-Review
published a sensational account of
remarkable marriage in Tusca-
rora, where the fact was developed
that the husband was a woman.
Every word that appeared in this
paper in relation to the matter was
strictly true, as was we'll known to
every resident of town. Almost
the entire press of the country ridi-
cuied the story as a hoax, and the
public generally discreditcd it.
Only short time ago the writer |
was introduced in San Francisco
by one newspaper man to another, |
as the author Of the famous female
husband canard. That was the
manner in which strictly truth
Ful account of somewhat remark

dvanced in explanation of the phe- t
omenon. We haye received at a

The Armstrong abduction Ca.e

| LONDON, Oct. 29.-The trial Of
defendants in the Armstrong alb
ouctlon case was resumed this
morning at the Central Criminal
Court. The testimony for the pros
ecution being all in, the Attorney
General announced that his side of
the case was closed. Charles Rus
sell, counsel for the defense. then
addressed the Court in behalf of
the prisoners. He INDICATED the
sublime motives of Mrs. Jarrett
when she took the girl from her
mother, for MIR. Stead, and claimed
that the absence Of consent from
the father did not make the act
crime if the mothers consent had
been given without misrepresenta
lion or fraud.
Stead then addressed the Jury |
n behalf Of himself and other de-
endants. His argument was on
he basis that the end justified the
means. The Court then ad-
burned.

An Ambitious Indian

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-"Hole-
in-the-Day," great grandson of the
famous Chippewa chief of that
name, is in this city with Mime

President an appointment to West

is young, tall and straight and of
very progressing personal ap-
pearanee, with but little to suggest
Indian blood in his veins. He
dresses well, and is said to be
highly educated for bis years. He
was at the War Department today
and made very favorable impress
sion upon the officials he met.

Fish and Ward.

| NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-The seen,
between Ward and Fish when the
latter was called to the witness
stand yesterday is the morning sen.
sation. The Tribune says "The
meeting was more painful to Ward
than to Fish. The latter knows
and realizes what life holds for him
and 1T cannot be much satisfaction
to him to tell all he knows about
Ward. The prisoner, however,
backed as he is by counsel, money
and influence of all kinds, must
have been bitterly tortured. Not
withstanding Fish's evidence. it
would be extremely unsafe to ven
ture an opinion about the result of
the trial. 4 sharp attack will be
mape by the defense on the tel
ephone conversation between Fish
and Ward, on which so much de-
pends." The Sun headlines its re-
port as follows Fish gets even |

eagerly against his accomplice-'I
I'm sixty-six years old, by occupa-
ion convict'-He stares with Bit
er contempt in the young fnan-
lers face, swearing him to State
