A PART OF THE CONSPIRACY.
Mrs. Weaver Thinks the Man Arrested at a. "
lanta as Her Husband Is an Imposter.

Elijah Hedges, the undertaken long connected
with James P. Weaver. supposed to have been
killed in railroad wreck near Atlanta, but who
is reported to have appeared there on Sunday,
received dispatch yesterday morning from
Walter R. Brown, who is the attorney at Atlanta
for Mrs. Weaver. The telegram says: IA man
reporting himself to be James P. Weaver, of In
dianapolis, has been taken up in Atlanta Come
on the first train" In the afternoon Mrs
Weaver received dispatch, also from Mr.
Brown which read; Come or send immedi-
ately. We have man arrested and will hold
him."
Mr. Hedges sent telegram last night that his
partner, w. /. Ripley, would leave for Atlanta
this morning, and to hold the man arrested.
Mr. Hedges has no doubt the man arrested is an
imposter and part of the Texas conspiracy He
said there was question in the world that the
body of-James Pearce Weaver, of Indianapolis,
was III Bellevue Cemetery at Atlanta. 1.-THE
Texas claimed as James w. Pearce with
grown sons. was said to be six feet high. The
coffin exhumed at Atlanta was only five feet nine
inches long. I've been undertaken too long
not to know that six feet men are not buried in
collins that short Weaver measured, laid out,
five feet seven and half inches, and when alive
was about five feet six inches tall Whoever the
man arrested at Atlanta may be, he is not James
2. Weaver, of Indianapolis"
The St Louis Globe Democrat yesterday con-
contained the following special dispatch from
Atlanta in regard to the case: "On the Oath of
December last thirteen persons were killed IN an
accident on the Georgia Pacific railroad, seven
teen miles from Atlanta Among the killed was
j. Woods Peirce, Texas stockman of wealth.
Soon after the killing Mrs. j. w. Weaver, who
lives in Indianapolis, appeared in Atlanta and
claimed the dead her husband. Mrs.
Weaver asserted that her husband had deserted
her and gone to Texas, where he changed his
name to j. w. Peircs. She followed him to
Texas and caused his arrest. He was fined
grave to be opened and recognized the dead
people of Atlanta, who knew Weaver when he
and were near him when his wife caused his
rest substantated Mrs Viewers claim, and the
body was about to be shipped to indianapolis
when Texas lady turned mp and claimed the
dead man was j. Woods Peirce. her husband.
She was backed up by an abundance OF testi
mony. Witnesses swore they had known the
dead man all his lfe and that his name had
never been anything but Perce. The Indian
apolis lazy described marks on her husband and
these marks were OIL the dead man. The court
granted the Texas lady an injunction and the
body was reburied in Atlanta. Both ladies sued
the railroad, and just as Mrs. Weaver was get
ting ready for her case new link in the mystery
arose. 1t was the arrest of a man who admits
that he is j. p. Weaver. He has the same marks
as the dead man, and has been recognized as the
indianapolis man."

Method of Purifying Water.

Mr.. Holmes, the engineer of the
water works at Hornsea, England has
adopted an ingenious arrangement for
filtering and purifying the water supplied
by the company there. The process is
thus described by The Sanitary World:
The water is pumped from bore whose
bottom is on level with the surface of
the Mere, the water being obtained from
the chalk. Formerly it was far from
satisfactory, and formed such a scale
upon the boilers that it materially af-
fected their workings. Mr.. Holmes set
himself the task of remedying this state
Of things. The water has always been
pumped into tank, and supplied thence
to the town. Mr.. Holmes had wooden
tank formed inside the larger one, and he
so spread out the water pumped upward
that it descended into the wooden tank
in the form of rain. The arr getting to
the water as it descended, oxidized it.
and of course. made it purer Inside
this wooden tank several smaller tanks
were constructed, through which all the
water passed. The sides Of the smaller
tanks were made of prepared linen, and
as the water passed through them they
caught up the impurities which it held in
suspension. AS the water flowed from
the upper tank into the lower from
which the town is supplied. it was sent
ripping over gravel, which further i'm
proves its quality. Although the con-
trivance is admirably adapted for the
purpose it is intended to serve. it is hardly
suitable for towns which require large
supply of water.-Boston Budget.

Evils of Early Rising.

Enemies of early rising will be de-

persons, and finds that the majority of
long-livers INDUCED in late hours. At
least eight out of every ten persons over
so never went to bed until we'll into
the small hours, and did not get up
again until late in the day. Indeed, he
considers that getting up early tends to
exhaust physical power and to shorten
life, while the so called invigorating
early hours are, he thinks, apt to pro-
duce lassitude, and are positively dan

Fires from Steam Pipes.

With each recurring fall and winter
the question of possibility of fires from
steam pipes becomes one of importance.
AS the most insidious diseases are usually
most to be feared, SO the most occult
causes of fire are among those which
should be most carefully looked after. 1t
lls very well known that wood, after re-
tmaining for some time in contact with
steam, hot air or hot water pipes, be-
comes carbonized on the surface and to a
short distance below. The charcoal, of
course, readily oxidizes. When steam is
not in the pipes the charcoal will absorb
moisture. When again heated the moist
lure is driven out, leaving a vacuum, into
which the fresh air current. circulating
around the pipes, readily penetrates. 1t
'lmparts oxygen to the charcoal, causes a
more rapid rise in the temperature, till
finally the point of ignition is reached.
The rusting of the pipes, if it occurs,
might also conduce to the same result.
the rust being reduced by the heat of the
steam to a condition in which it will alb
Sorb oxygen to the point of red heat.

Necessity for Two Enrs.

Sound travels by waves radiating from
a central point of disturbance. like the
wavelets caused by droppinga pebble into
still water. So far as the hearing of each
individual is concerned. these waves move
in a direct line from the cause of sound to
his ear, the impact being greatest in the
ear that is nearest to the source. The eff
feet, in this respect, of the total loss of
hearing in one ear was fOrciblv illustrated
by the statement of a patient who con-
suited me recently He lived in wild
portion of Tennessee, and spent good
deal of his spare time in the woods, hunt
ing squirrels, accompanied only by his
dog. An explosion suddenly destroyed
the hearing in one ear. After this acct
dent, while in the woods, he found that
he could hear his dog bark, but for the
life of him he could not locate the direc-
ton of the sound, even when quite close
to him, and he was compelled to take his
little boy along with him to find the dog.
After time persons learned to correct,
to a limited extent, the errors in estimat-
ing distances after the loss of vision, but
the effect of the loss of an ear upon the
destination of the direction of sound is
never corrected. Williams.

The Life of n Convict.

1.-The study of human nature" said
Principal Keeper Patterson, of the state
penitentiary at Trenton, N. j., to a re-
porter III the lobby of the National hotel,
'inside prison walls is more interesting
than pleasant. The class of human beings
one comes in contact with is usually SO
depraved and hardened that it often
times surprises even those accustomed to
the life. We believe our system to be as
good as any in existence, and yet we are
not as severe in some ways as the people
of the Eastern penitentiary."
Are there not number of criminals
sent you who instead should go to asy-
lums? Do you not have many cranky
characters to contend within
"Well, we do in a certain sense.
Criminals are, as a rule, one-sided char
acters; their moral character is, SO to
speak lopsided. But it is not the men
who go into the prisons that are mentally
unbalanced it is those who come out.
The fact is, the man who serves five or
even three years sentence out, is apt
to leave the penitentiary unsound in
mind, if not in both body and mind.
Imagine, for instance, the life they lead,
day in and day out To the mess room
in the morning, where they cannot speak
a word to any one; to the workshop for
the day, where talking is strictly forbid
den; to the mess room again for supper,
where the same order is enforced, and
then to solitary confinement in their cells,
where there is no one to talk to. Think
of it. Such life for years! Is it not
enough to drive a man insane? Why,
man alive, you cannot realize it; but the
percentage is simply frightful of those

Resistance of Hard Burned Bricks.

1t is found that walls laid up OF good,
hard burned bricks, in mortar composed
of good lime and sharp sand, will resist a
pressure of 800 pounds per square inch,
or $4,000 pounds per square foot, at
which figures it would require 900 feet
height of 12-inch wall to crush the bottom
courses, allowing 1875 pounds as the
weight of each cubic foot. It also appears
from accurate calculations and measure
ments that walls laid up in the same
quality of brick and mortar, with one
third quantity of Portland cement added
to the same, are capable of resisting some
$500 pounds per square inch. or $50, 900
pounds per square FOOT this would re-

An Arizona Lizard.

These lizards are found in the canyons
of Arizona. They are very poisonous
as poisonous as the most venomous
snake. The natives claim that to inhale
a lizards breath is sure and almost in
slant death The truth or fallacy of this
has never been established. Nobody
seems to want to take the chances of try
ing the experiment. The lizard fare, in
captivity. is fresh egg every morning.
