Der of Americans, headed by Duke Gwin
were scheming 10 aid the foreign usurper,
Brannan cave money and equipped a regi
ileut of troops to aid the Republican cause
Republics are proverbially ungrateful, but
Mexico is somewhat of an exception. She
vosed Brannan large sum of money, some
ching over 100000, and a grant of land in
Sonora. He obtained $4,000 in 1880, and
went TO Guaymas to push his scheme for es
tablishing an American colony Oh his land.
The old speculative instinct seemed for the
time to get the better of his dissolute habits,
and he entered actively into the scheme of
colonization, but when he came to survey his
lands he found that the greater part Of the
grant was ranged over by the Yaqui Indians
when they first came into that secluded re-
gion all the devilment not otherwise account
ed for was laid to the Irish then at work on
the Wabash and Erie canal"
In like manner all the fires in western Hi
nois then were 'laid to" the Mormons, as
those recently in Pennsylvania were to the
careless Hungarians. In 1887 there was
universal drought from the Alleghanies to
the Rocky mountains and from the British
line to the gulf, while east of the mountains
the season was unusually wet; so there were
fires in all parts of the central valley. Many
columns might be filed with bare mention of

4 Noted Burglar,

Herman Palmer, or as he is better known,
Dutch Palmer, one Of the noted burglars of
the United States, whose portrait has a place
of honor in Inspector Byrnes' professional
Criminals" was recently acquitted of bur-
glary in New York city. Dutch Palmer is a
remarkably clever man at his philanthropic
profession, and although he has been arrested
many times, he has been very fortunate in
escaping severe punishment for his crimes
His brother, August Palmer, another famous
or infamous burglar, has not had so much
luck in wrigglng out of the laws clutches,
and knows the systems followed at several of
the big prisons.
This is the description of Dutch Palmer in
the New York police records: "Twenty-nine
years old in 1886. German, born in New York

to beg successfully; no other woman, no
matter how bad her motives, could do so
much harm" 1t was terribly severe self
condemnation, but there is too much reason
to fear that it was true Philanthropy with
out good judgment is dangerous. The man
who gratifies his sense of benevolence, who
induces voluptuous thrill of self satisfac-
ton, as one writer puts it, by finging money
to the sturdy beggar, is injuring the whole
community.

versions meetings were held everywhere they
went, a bethel flag being hoisted, calling all
within sight to attend the meetings, and soon
his vessel became known to every one, and
was popularity called the gospel ship.
The captain, in the course of his travels,
makes frequent stops at the widest settle
ments on the lake shores and establishes Sun
day schools and supplies them with reading
matter, including Bibles and Sunday school
papers. On his trips he is accompanied by
his wife, who oiliciates as ships cook, his
daughter, now II years old, who leads the
singing and plays the organ, and his son.

MRS. ATHERToN'S REJOINOER.
She Writes Letter at Ella Wheeler Will
cox to The New York Sun.

cox to The New York Sun.
Many readers of the newspa pers have been
waiting ever since Ella Wheeler Wilcox gave
out the now famous correspondent between
herself and Gertrude Atherton, to see what
the latter, now in Europe, would say when
she heard about it. 1t was thought in some
quarters that she would maintain silence
as cutting as undeSn able to Mrs Wilcox,
who doubtless considered the matter an ex-
tremely good lad, but not So Here is Mrs
AthertOn's rejoinder sent from Paris to The
New York Sun:
you will allow me to thank you, no! for
your kind article upon my correspondence
with Mrs Ella Wheeler Wilcox which, it
appears, she has published
Poor, struggling little creature! Mrs.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox seems to grasp at every
straw which carries her before the public
eye. Although had no time to more than
glance over her letters when | received them,
it occurred to me then that they were written
for ultimate publication. Her elaborate
enumeration of her exalted sentiments re-
garding mankind in general and myself in
particular, as well as her systematic
review of my charms (Which, by the way,
are unimpaired), looked very much as if
a dress parade were in prospect. Twas there
fore as cold and guarded as possible in my
replies, not having the same craze for vulgar
nOtoriety which appears to agitate Mrs. Will
cox, and not wishing to lower myself to Ler
undignitied level That should quarrel with
her is impossible. l am hall a southerner,
and southerners have very stringent canons
on the question of dueling.
Il am surprised that woman of Mrs. Will
cox's noble sentiments should not have printed
the letter with which | finished the CORE
spondence. 1t is perhaps charitable to sup
pose that this letter was lost in the mail; but
it is a remarkable fact that the rest Of the
correspondence was not published until was
safely on this sldetQf the Atlantic. l. read
as follows:
My DEAREST MIA WILcox-Your letter was
feminine and interesting and all that was to have
been expected, but you will pardon me IL do not
reply to it. never yet have descended to handy
ing words with a woman and cannot begin now
This is the nearest approach have ever made to
it, and l feel it to be both ridiculous aud con

for libel, because that often militant gentle
man had branded his feats as mere charlatan-
ism.
One of the tricks which he often per-
formed while lecturing was to carry a bouquet
to some lady in the audience, whose name
was put in sealed envelope and held by
responsible assistant, also of the audience.
One Of his most difficult tests was the read
ing of the number on a bank note in the
pocket of some one in the audience.
The performance of these feats always had
an injurious effect upon Bishop, as he was
naturally phenomenally nervous man. AT
ter having performed his tricks his pulse
often ran as high as 100 beats to the minute,
and he not infrequently had cataleptic fits,
from one of which, as has been stated in the
Geographic dispatches, he died. He was a
slender man, but his muscles were as hard as
wood 1t is said that he became addicted to
the use of cocaine over a year ago, and while
under the influence Of the drug he was utter
" unmanageable Many of his matrimonial
complications were owing to the looseness of
his habits.
The portrait here given shows him as be
appeared some two years or moro ago. when
he was on the lecture platform. He wore no
beard at that time, and although nearly 40
years old, his face was exceedingly bOyish
looking. At the time of his death he wore a
full beard, which he kept carefully trimmed.

WASHINGTON IRVING BISHOP.
Something of Interest About the Late
Mind Readers Career.

Mind Readers Career.
Washington Irving Bishop, the famous
"mind reader" who died suddenly at the
Lambs club in New York city recently,
while performing probably the most difficult
feat of Thought transferance" he had ever
attempted, has been talked about great
deal during the past ten years. There were
many believers in his psychological powers,
and also many skeptics, who protested that
his mind reading" was simply muscle read
ing" and, with little practice, could be per-
formed by any one of average intelligence.
Charles Montague, Boston journalist, was
one of the first to boldly deny Bishops pow
ers, and he gave several exhibitions to prove
his statements Henry Guy Carleton, the
New York humorist, was also detractor of
Bishop, and for The New York World he
wrote several articles which endeavored to
reduce Irving'ss so called psychological powers
to the level of muscle reading. Certain it is,
however, that neither of these gentlemen
ever performed feats equal to those of Bishop.
1t will be remembered what sensation
was created when Bishop drove blindfolded

"BUNCO" BUzzARD.

As the train was due MARSHAL DULEY.
in seven minutes, there was just that time
between getting away and arrest. Duley
stepped up to Carter, covered him with a re-
volver and took him prisoner. Carter made
a motion to draw a weapon, but the marshal
told him that if he did he was dead man.
Carter was searched, and on him was
found S6,125, most of the bills being in the
wrappers in which they had been de-
livered to Coffman from the bank, and one
of them bearing the check mark of the
cashier. Carriers confederate, Black, was also
found by Duley and arrested; but Black
claimed to be travelling man and declined
to acknowledge any acquaintance with Mr.
Carter. He found the proprietor of livery
stable who declared that he had been in the
place week. On hearing this plausible tale
Black was released.
Carter was taken to Washington and lodged
in Jail. The farmer who had been robbed
identified him, and valise which Black had
thrown away was found with the three paste
boards inside with which the man had been
relieved of his money
