A Dead Negro Woman Comes to Life and
Predicts the End of the World on
the Goth CT September.

ASavannah Ga, special to the Picayune
says: In Liberty county a few miles
north of Savannah, a negress apparently
died on Monday last and the negroes of
the vicinity gathered at night to sit up
with the corpse. During the night the
supposed corpse came back to life broke
the glass in the coffin lid and sat up and
spoke. A stampede ensued. When the
terrorizatiOn had been overcome the wO-
man said that she had been dead and
sent back to warn the people that the
end of the world would come Sept. 90.
She also predicted her own death before
morning. 1t occurred and Tuesday
night came the earthquake. Nothing
can now disabuse the negroes of the idea
shat she was phophetess and 500 of
them have gathered in the neighborhOod
and spent the entire time since Wednes-
day in religious exercises. They refuse
TO work on the farms and are preparing
themselves for judgment day. They
pray in relays and increasingly take
their food without interrupting the ser
vice.

An Interesting Woman.
Philadelphia Press.]

Decidedly the most interesting woman
at Long Branch this summer is tall
willowy blonde, with perfect features
and great blue eyes that shine with a
warning brightness. Her toilets are
superb and always in the best taste, and
her jewels are all gems. She was ia
miliar figure at the races at Monmouth
though very few. indeed of the thousands
who gathered there knew or suspected
the role that she was playing. She was
the adviser-that is the whole word of q
wealthy New York broker, who had a
wild passion for gambling on the turf.
She was audaciOus enough to pretend to
be gifted with second sight and to be
able to pick out the winning horses in
in all racing events. He believed her,
and in consideration of her advice he
paid her large honorarium every week.
| fancy he is doomed to be a supersti-
tiOus crank for life now, for as il a Sc
ductive faith had willed it, he was away
ahead Of the game when the races closed.
His faith in the woman, consequently is
unbounded, and in addition to what he
agreed to pay for points" he has lavish
ed the most costly gifts upon her.

the fact that its members feel more
sure of their ground. And there can
be no doubt that they do so feel For,
the speech of M. Tisza and Lord Ran
dolph Churchill and the unmistakable
signs of an Anglo-Austrian alliance
must have assured them that Russia
will not be allowed to trample rough
shod over the rights of the Bulgarian
people and that despite the German ALI
ance, she will be made to understand
that it will be at her peril if she dare
hagrantly to violate the provisions of
the Berlin treaty, which prohibit the
interference Of foreign Power in the
internal government of the Balkan
Prlncedoms. Of this much the Bulga-
rian Government must have satisfied
themselves before venturing to tell the
officials of the Car, that their further
intermeddling with the elections will be
attended with certain penalties. The
Court Of ST. Petersburg will therefore
have eli her to moderate its pretensions
and observe the abstinence the Re-
gency demands, or by increasing these,
force an appeal to the sword. And
this mornings cables show that the
latter is the alternative to whice, as we
have always said, Russia's antecedents
have committed her. The plot for
effecting an insunection at the various
centres of Bulgaria, on the 18th in
stant, preliminary to Russian occupa-
ton of that country on the 9th Nov
ember, is quite in keeping with the
whole Of General Kaulbars's procedure,
and the massing Of forces at Odessa is
obviously in anticipation of the intend
ed hostile movement Among military
authorities in Austria and Roumania
there seems no longer any doubt of a
Balkan invasan by Russia, and the
reported nervous excitement Of the
Czaris sure portent that the plunge
into war is at length about to be taken.

FOREIGN NEWS
Bulgaria Stands Firm Against Rus
sian Aggression.

The following summary of the latest
European news is from the Auckland,
N. L., Herald Of October I2th:--
The Bulgarian Regency having de-
clined the ultimatum of the Russian
agent requiring the release of the pris-
oners implicated in Prince Alexander's
deposition and the postponement of
the elections, and having also issued a
diplomatic note to the Great Powers
protesting against General Kaulbars'
action in his tour Of the provinces, has
assumed yet higher ground. A circu.
lar has been addressed by it to the for
eign censuls in Bulgaria threatening
the expulsion of foreigners if they con
tinue to meddle with the elections for
the National Assembly now proceeding
There can be no doubt as to the signi-
ficancy of this action. 1t is made to
have general bearing, but it at the
same time has special aim, as it is
we'll known that the agents of Russia
are the only parties against whom it is
directed. This is made very evident,
even if there we're no other grounds for
the conclusion, by the fact that the
Russian consul is the only one who
has taken offense at the Regency's
action. This arrogant official has, it is
said, returned the circular suspended
relations with the Regency, and awaits
instruction from General Kaulbars as
to his future course. What the orders
of his coarse superior will be, may be
be inferred from previous occurrences.
"A recommendation of any other than
an impertinent and offensive policy
could not be looked for from man of
General Kaulbars' character. His ad-
vice to the consul will doubtless be to
interfere still with the elections as
much as he possibly can. What else
could be expected from one who has
been endeavoring to excite treason in
the Bulgarian army, and to brlbe its
officers in command. And this advice
he will be all the more disposed to give
that he will interpret the threat of ex-
pulsion as being specially directed
against himself For it is not alone the,
consuls that are referred to in the cir
cular but any foreigner who may inter-
fere with the people in the exercise of
their elective rights. And, of all who
may have erred in this way, General
Kaulbars is himself the greatest sinner.
On him, therefore, the effect of the
circular will be to compel him either to
desist frem his seditious practices, or
to assume more defiant attitude. And
judging from the past the latter is the
course he is almost certain to elect.
True, his attempts TO excite treason in
the Bulgarian army or people have
failed; but this will only dispose him to
resort to conduct more outrageous, as
his mission is bysome means or other to
create a pretext for Russia's armed
in Bulgaria. Looked at
from this point Of view, the bold front
put on by the Regency may to some
appear to be impolitic. More closely
examined, however, it is suggestive Of

Rather Rough.

A member of Engine Company No.
2 absorbed more stimulant than was
good for him after the fire. On arriv-
ing at the engine house he lay down
and fell into heavy sleep. Some of
his comrades knocked together a rude
coffin, into which they laid the slumber-
ing form, placing lighted candles and a
cross in position about it. Then they
asked loiterers in to the wake, and
among others Chinaman, who was
very much frightened when the sup
posed corpse gave loud snore. When
the fireman woke up he was Mortified at
the situation, and would have taken
vengeance on the practical testers, but
none of them could be found to own
up to the ghastly and irreverent prank.

Lord Churchill's American Cola.

have read a most amusing remark made
by Lord Randolph Churchill in one of his,
few nights ago. Here is the remark:
sMr. Gladstone has also American gold to
help him. Eighty-fiye members of Mr..
Gladstone's party absolutely depend for
their living on the almighty dollar"
There isn't prima facie anything very
amusing in it, is there? No. But here
is where the amusing part comes in. Inc
laugh begins il we reflect that at the pres
ent moment Lord Randolph Churchill is

dinner party in Paris the beautiful
American girl who has since become such
Il prominent character in England. She
might have had q hump, Or a squint. or

money. II she hadn't had money, don't
think her beauty would have helped her
to become Lady Randolph Churchill. Like

Randolph woultln', have married any

fore each little earthel pile was Il group
OF devoted Cinnamon, with lighted tapers
and joss sticks and /; huge pile of roasted
pigs, chickens and other delicacies to de-
light the spirits of departed ones. Along
side OF the sacriticial offerings were the
various figures made out OF fire cracker
anu other cOlOred paper, some in the
shape of men and women, beasts, birds,
and dragons, while others initiated the
various currencies Of the world. They
were mostly stamped on the paper, in
stead Of made into the lifesize figures as
is the custom in China
The ceremonies Of sending servants and
provisions to the dead were conducted in
solemn silence Hardly a word was ut
tered by the devOtees except an occas-
ional whisper to the attendants when any
thing was required. After all the daint-
les had been formally Offered to the dead
a match was applied TO the pile Of paper
servants, prayers, and money, and just
before the blaze died out an urn OF rice
wine was poured upon it. This was IL
parting drink to the spirit who carried
away the presents.
The ceremonies over, the roasted pigs
and chickens We're carried back into tt
various carriages and carted back to Mott

In China the period Tor sending offerings
