From Paradise Back TO Earth.
Macon, Ga, Telegraph.

The little town OF Vernon, Lamar
county, Ala, twenty-eight miles north
east Of Columbus, Miss, has furnished
a first-class sensation, which has set the
entire country wild.
Mollie Pennington, daughter OF
George Pennington, who resides four
miles from Vernon, aged thirteen years,
was taken sick on the 10th ult. Physi-
clans state that her illness resembled
hydraphobia. On the 18th Drs. Reed,
Brown. Morton and Burns were called
in to see the girl. She presented every
sign oil hydrophobia, attempting to bite
every one around her, even herself. On
the 18th she somewhat rallied, gained
her consciousness, and told those around
her that she would die for an hour ex-
actly, and at the expiration OF that time
TO chafe her hands and feet and that she
would come back to life
At the time predicted she died away,
and physicians present state that death
was apparent, the pulse failing to beat
and her body was cold. Her physicians
during the hour applied all available
remedies to restore her, and at sixty
two minutes exactly from the time she
swooned away she astonlshed all by
opening her eyes and jumping nimblg
from her bed.
She told that she had been to heaven
and that God had cured her. She then
told that she was returned to preach TO
the earth, and commenced there exhor-
tations that amazed them all.
The most curious circumstance is
that she remarked Immediately that
she had seen Mrs. Briermore in heaven
and had talked with her. Mrs. Brier-
more, who lives four miles away, died
during the hour the girl was apparently
dead and no one had had any commu-
nication from the-family.
At The appointed time OF evening she
has continued her exhortations, telling
before hand at what hour God would be
with her.
Ministers from all over the country
are hoclling to, see her, and her discour-
ses move her audiences to shouts and
tears.
Men Of strong minds say there is
samething supernatural about her. She
never went to school day in her life
and cannot read her name, and never
heard but one sermon in her life; and
the good language used by her in her
discourses and Bible teachings strike
her hearers with wonder.
She is unusually small for her age,
weighing but forty-one pounds. She
has always been ol reticent disposition,
until within the last month she has
been in unusual good spirits and talked
necessarily.
This statement is corroborated by at
least dozen men your correspondent
has talked to, who have seen her and
heard her talk. Great crowds are re-
ported as going from all over the coun-
try to hear her.

HAPPY DETROIT NEWSBOYs.
Gov. AIger Toys out Half a Thous
and Urchins in New Clothes.

From the PkiIddeIDhia Press.
DETROIT, Dec. 25-Between 500 and 600
newsboys appeared on the streets this
evening in new suits OF clothing, gift
of Gov. Russell A. Alger. This wholesale
giving by the Governor was part OF a gen.
erous plot conceived by him some time
ago, and kept from the knowledge of the
boys until few days since, when it was
necessary that they should have their
measures taken. The Governors gener-
osity in this instance cost him several
thousand dollars, but he was well paid for
it. tonight by the happy looks OF the boys.
Thanksgiving day the Governor came
out of his Office In the Telegraph block,
and calling to him little Hebrew news
boy, said: go fetch all the boys you see.
| have quarter for every one."
AS soou as the youngster recovered
from his establishment he ran like mad
down the street shouting to every boy in
sight, and in ten minutes time there was
a bowling mob about the tall, dignifed
form of the chief magistrate. The eager
mesa with which the boys grabbed their
quarters, the enthusiasm with which the
distribution was received, the cheers
which made Griswold street ring from the
river to the high school, made the Gov
ernor's eyes twinkle with pleasure as he
stalked back to his Office upstairs. 1t was
then that he conceived the idea of doing
something more substantial for the lads.
He took into his secret the newspapersot
the town and two of the leading mer-
chant tailors. They entered into the
spirit of the plan with cOmmendable in
terest. The tailors contracted TO furnish
good clothes at low prices, and made ar
rangements TO III out, in an expeditions
and convenient manner, the small army
who were to be the recipients OF the Gov
erpor's bounty. The names of the boys
were evenly divided into two lists, and
the younger boys were first disposed Of.
A week ago 100 urchins answered TO
their names and were measured for such
a style as each selected. On Monday 100
more were served Likewise.

King of the Soapy Eits Trick

wv A<1fettDee
One of the bitterest pangs for the really
deserving poor must be the thought OF
the many iniquities that hypocrisy COM
mits In their name. The cruelest OF these
perhaps is the shamming OF fits in the
public streets. The practice seems to be
almost as old as lying itself, yet it admits
of regular revival III each generation Of
impostors. A fellow charged with this
offense at Lambeth Police Court on Sat
urday was said to be very old hand. An
officer OF the Mendicity Society saw him
have three fits in successiOn-each fol-
lowed of course by cOllectiOn-and
very properly invited him to finish the
third in police station. He uttered deep
groans, and foamed at the mouth in a
manner shocking TO behold, until it be-
came manifest that his sign OF suffering
was due TO the simple. though unsavory
expedient, of chewing a piece OF soap.
Nothing IL really wasted in a great city,
and the bits OF soap that are too small for
toilet use are, no doubt, eagerly bought
up by ''the trade'' In sham epileptic tits.
The practitioner in question is said to
stand at the very head Of MS calling, and
he is known professionally as the "hing
OF the Soapy Fits Trick" In these
stormy tunes the title must seem enyiable
TO many pOtentate OF wider dominion.
The monarch IN question has one
true note of royalty In sort OF
passive persistence in chosen course.
lie has elected TO live by chewing soap,
nd he goes on living by IL, in spite OF
wears upon years OF prison hard labor,
and even of one whipping. On his re-
lease from Jail, apparently, he begs, Dor
rows, or otherwise provides himself with
piece Of soap, and starts in business
again. II society, on the one hand, never
wearins OF correcting him, the King OF
the Scapy Fits, on the other, never wear
les of being corrected. 1t is, perhaps,
more discouraging for society than him.
1t is strange that no one has thought OF
soliciting his testimonial to a new soap.
His recommendation ought 10 be supreme
authority on the question OF fathers.
