4razed by Religious Excitement.

WILLIAMsPoRr, Pa, October IA
case of insanity brought on BY religious
excitement came to light yesterday after
noon when VIM. II. Basti.D, u Il err in the
Dodge Mills, tried to drive mis- fellow
wOrkmen from the shop. Bls,ian for
some time has been attending the reii-
gious REVEALS at Newbarry, aud for days
his wife has noticed that he acted queer.
He has necessarily been bemoaning his
fate and praying that his sins might
be forgiven. Monday morning during
one of his fits of depression he tried tc
kill his wife, but she escaped from him
and he went to work. At The mill he be.
came a raving maniac, and the police
were sent for. 1t took the combined
strength OF four officers to hold him. He
is a h. avily-built man and he struggled
furiously, but was at last handcuffed and
taken to Jail.
In Jail Bastian managed to get loose.
He tore his clothes OF and ran into the
corridors naked and howled friehtfuily.
He reached the door leading from the
corridor and with a tremendous muscular
force tried TO break it open. Sheriff
Spracue was preparing to start for
Gettysburg, but when he saw what the
matter was, he concluded to remain at
home and watch the mailman. 1t took
eight men to recapture Bastian. He was
at last overpOwered, dressed and chained
to bed so that he could not move. lie
was examined and removed to the Dan.
vile Asylum last evening.

An Antediluvian Jumbo on Exhibition ~
Fort Smith, Ark.
FORT SMITH; ARK, October 12.-Mr. j.
W. Watts, a ferryman, living up the Arkan-
sas River about six miles from this city,
arrived in town this morning, bringing
with him for exhibition at the fair to-
morrow the bones of a mastOdOn, which ne
found a few days ago at his place Of boat
ing. He happened to see a large bone
prOlruding from the sand, and at
once proceeded to investigate, and
after bringing 1t to light found it to resem-
bic the femus of large animal, no doubt
of the prehistoric kingdom; it measured
thirty-eight inches in length and twenty
eight inches at the largest circumference.
The finding Of this bone induced Mr.. Watts
to investigate further, and in few
hours, at the depth of sixteen feet
in the sand, he found the entire
skeleton. The ribs measure twenty-eight
ana thirty-six inches in length and are four
inches in circumference; the head is almost
perfect and is of huge dimensions. All the
imperfections are, the horns are broken off
and the nasal prOtuberence has crumbled
away. The entire skeleton measures over
sixteen feet in length and stands as Won
der to the hundreds who are finding their
way to the enclosure in which it is kept.
The like has never been heard of before in
the Southwest, and is attracting the atten-
ton of the skilled as well as the ignorant,
who pronounce it wonder of the age.

THE MAckiN CASE.


4 HsuasksSas Complicatioa 0rowlng Oas
efa Conviction h Two Courts.
CHICAGO, October IA remarkable
eGal complication has arisen IN the case Of
Joseph Chesterfield Mackip, the notorious
Cook County politician Some months ego
70 was tried in the United States Circuit
Court for IN offense against the United
States election laws, and waS convicted. A
writ of erlor was applied for, the cases
argued before NessrA HAilan and Gresham
md . case granted for the United States
Supreme Court Nackin being released On
ifty thousand dollars bail A few weeks
alter he WAS tried and convicted in the
States court for an oftense against tho
State election law. This conviction Is also
before the State Supreme Court and do
sisi0n will be rendered In about elk weeks.
Mackin Is now confined In tho county
Jail, the State Court refusing - grant
bail, even In the sum Of ono hundred
thousand dollars, which was tho figure
submitted by the late Emory A. Storms on
the day before his sudden death. The
probabilities, however, point to the fact
that the United States Supreme Court
which reassembles to-day, will consider and
render Judgment on the appeal prior to the
decision of the State Courts being an
nOunced. and whether or not tho Washing
ton decision is In the prisoners favor he
must be produced in court upon the day
that the stay of execution expires. But it
10 happens that there 10 no authority by
which he can be taken out of the Cock
County Jail in order to surrender to the
United States authorities, ard consequently
which ever way the Washington judgment
goes, his bondsmen will be compelled to
forfeit the $4,000 Speaking upon tha
matter tO-da;, Attorney General Hunt
of this State, said: 1.-THE situation is cor
rectly stated, but that is one of the rnks in
Cured by bOndsmen. 1t is not generally
supposed, however, that a man would go
ahead SO fast as to get two cases on hand
for separate Offenses at the same time. |
am sure that this contingency will arise, As
the Supreme Court is sure to pass upon the
appeal from Judge Gresham before the
State Court can act" Mackin's bOndsmen
view the outlook with dismay, but are said
to have been advised by eminent counsel
that they have NJ relief.

COLUMBUS, o., October 14-UnOfiicial
returns from nearly all the precincts can
vassed since midnight make FOraker's plu-

100000. The Legislature is Republican on
joint ballot without fourteen members from

majority. With Hamilton County the Re
publicans would have majority Of thirty

WASHINGTON, October 16.-In a dis
patch to the State Department dated Sep
TENDER Z, the DragOman of the United
State Legation at Teheran gives the SUBJ
stance OF recent conversation with the
Persian Minister of Foreign Affairs in
which his excellency asked whether the
Americans would engage in business in
Persia, as the Persian Government was dis
posed to offer every facility in its power
to improve business relations between
Persia and the United States.
Any proposals. he said. for con-
cessions for tramways, railways. mines or
commercial projects, would receive the most
serious and favorable considerations from
the Government, provided that the persons
making them were known and introduced
by the United States Minister; that he
would be glad to do everything in his power
to encourage American commerce and i'll
dustry in Persia and that any fair c0Edi-
tons for concessions would be accepted by
the Government. He wished this should
be brought to the attention of the business
men of America.
