day by commission of lunacy. Ex-
Congressman I. NJ. Norwood questioned
the impostor to enable the jury to arrive

Very few, though. were permitted to
hear it All the time it was going on
the crowd outside discussed the mans
lunacy. The colored people seemed to
be about evenly divided. One old man
said that IL Campbell would step in front
OF the fast mail as it came by and
stop the train he would believe in
him, and let the grass grow in the
corn and follow him. In the examina-

The juror did not accept the proposition.

lisle D. Graham made an experimental
trip this morning with his new patent
torpedo barrel lifeboat, preliminary to
going over the Horseshoe Falls in it on
July Fourth, but the craft was dashed
to pieces in the rocks Of the upper rapids
before it reached the falls. The boat waD
twelve feet long, forty inches in diameter,
and was strongly built Of oak and cedar
slaves, bound with iron bands and with
propeller wheels on the sides. There
were three water-tight compartments.
Graham was so confident OF his ability

torpedo that he contemplated no trial
trip, but this was insisted upon by his
wife and other people Interested. w. S.

little Japanese All Right, received a
letter from the Japanese Legation at
Washington that he would be prosecuted

cluding your correspondent, waited on
the cliffs in the Canadian Park for the
boat to appear. Below on the river,
near the foot of the 20O-foot Horseshoe

boat when it came over. Nothing but

boat came over. and these swept rapidly
