LoUIsIANA's WILD GIRL.-One day last
week two strangers passed through Trinity
on foot, having travelled from Alexandria, La.
They gave thrilling account of meeting
held with the wild girl of Catahoula. near
Hemp's Creek. They say she is ore of the
most ferocious looking beings that the hu.
man eye was ever cast upon. They stopped
to ask her few questions, but could not
get nearer than fifty feet. She is as feet as
q deer, and at one leap she cleared a root
seven feet high. She uses no language, on
ly gibberish. Her arms are long, brawny
and muscular. She appears to be about 16
years of age, and has a kind of limp when
walking. They could not get near enough
to distinguish whether she had deformed
foot She had an old knife, which they say
was about eight inches long, which she no
doubt uses dexterously. She is In height
about feet inches, and would weigh
about 125 or 140 pounds, with no surplus
flesh. These gentlemen say that in that
neighborhood they gave the information,
aud that no one seems to know anything
about the girl. The men say they would
not sleep in the woods near where they cav
the girl for all that was in the parish. They
think she can conquer any three men in the
neighborhood. She has immense eyes, and
her hair hangs to her waist and is of beau.
tiful brown. A committee of fifteen men
with provisions for two weeks will be Or
ganized, and steps will be taken soon to
capture her.-Trinity (La.) Herald.

SwINDLED By BUNKo MEN.-Two New
York bunko steerers have been working the
rural districts in Bucks county, Pa, during
the last fortnight. and as result various
farmers are bewailing their misfortune, hav.
ing lost amounts varying from 5000 to 81 900.
The lightning rod game, the three card
monte swinde and host ofothers have
been worked, and all successfully. But it
was reserved for Farmer Jordon Snyder, of
Church Hill, to bite on the fimsiest, scheme
of all. Farmer Snyder reads the papers and,
had heard of the swinding of his neighbors,
and when two spruce looking young men
put in an appearance they met with cool
reception But when they engaged board
for the summer and paid for week in ad.

soon ripe for aplucking, The strangers sym.

were slightly damaged, still were negotia.
BILE, for $500, and showed him samples of the
damaged money. He borrowed the needed
$500 on mortgage on his farm, and allow.
ed the strangers to wrap it into packages.
These they exchanged for similar ones filled
with sand. Farmer Snyder was go overjoy.
ed at the fortune that awaited him that he
presented his friends with $25, while they
proceeded elsewhere on business, agreeing
to meet him the next day. On their failure
to do go he discovered the fraud.

The MESSAGE DID NOT COME Courtlandt
Palmer and Stephen Pearl Andrews. of New
York, had an agreement that the one who
died first was, if possible, to communicate
from the spirit land with the survivor. A
year was to be allowed for the phenomenon
to take place, and in case it did not the con-
clusion was to be that the theory of spirit.
ualistic intercourse was false. Andrews
was spiritualist. The two men were anx-
ious to settle the question, while stlesst one
lived, whether the spirits of the dead COM
municated with the living. So they made
the agreement described Each memorzed
a sentence, and this was, if feasible, to be
sent by the one who died TO the one who yet
lived through some medium hundreds Of
miles away. Nobody else was to know the
words. Andrews died last autumn, and
Palmer, although without faith, waited for
the promised message. It did not come.
Andrews was frequently represented as
speaking through various mediums here and
there, but be did not mention Palmer or the
compact. Not long before Courtlandt Pal
mer's death ne talked with several friends
about the upkept promise by Stephen Pearl
Andrews, and declared that If the expira.
tion of the year did not bring the proof 10
the contrary, he should set down spiritual
ism as sure delusion. AS be died before
the end of the year, and without, go far as
known, disclosing the test sentence 10 any
body, this attempt by two of the Nineteenth
Century Club men TO ascertain the truth as
to spiritualism comes to nothing satisfactory.
