EIGHT YEARS OF SOLITUDE.
Los Angeles Has Female Hermit Who Ex.
poets To Be Medium.

Los ANGELES, CAL, Jan. 2Q.-For nearly
eight years q house on the site of the new city
hall has been occupied by Mrs. Jenny Leyes. a
female hermit who styles herself q Christian
spiritualist. The house belongs to Nj. L. Wicks,
who receives $40 a month from its lone inmate,
who regularly hands him the money through
broken blind. An order of the City Council di-
recting Wicks to remove the house at once has
attracted attention.
About n dozen years ago Mr.. and Mrs. Leyes
FIRST put in an appearance in Los Angeles. They
came from the East, and as near be
learned. Mr.. Leyes was in the last stages OF con-
sumption. They were both earnest spiritual
lists, and soor after their arrival here they be-
came acquainted with all the spiritualists in the
city. After the couple had lived here four
hVe years Leyes died. The next morning the
widow seemed remarkably cheerful to her won
dering friends. She said that her husband had
appeared to her during the night and had made
her perfectly happy. When closely questioned
she said that he had come to her bedside and
told her that she must shut herself ND in the
room In which he died and neither leave it nor
see any one for eight years. He told her that
at the end OF that time she would be given
second sight, and would be able to materialize
In broad daylight IN any room or even out in the
streets.
Mrs. Leyes believes that what her husband
told her. what she had dreamed. would actu-
ally occar, so she went into the room and has not
been out of IL since. She has been fed and
waited on through blind door by an old lady
who has stood guard over her for seven years
So far rs cen be learned no one has ever caught
sight OF her during ali these years, and what
business she has had to transact has been
through the blind door, Several attempts have
been made to get her out OF the room but all
have failed. few years ago a gentleman who
took deep interest in the matter applied to the
court for writ OF habeas corpus, but when the
judge learned his object and was told that the
woman was confined at her own pleasure, he re-
fused TO issue the writ. aud the woman has not
been disturbed until now. Her time il almost
up, and spiritualists watching with great
anxiety for the outcome OF her long hermitage.
The house will have to be moved very soon. and
Delievers in her peculiar religion are puzzled to
know what the effect of moving the house to
other site will be The woman is quite old. but
those who allowed to talk to her through the
dooor say she is in perfect health.
