President Harrison Before the Parnell
Commission.

LONDON. May 3O.-At the meeting Of
the Parnoll commission to-day, Arthur
O'Connor, member of parliament, testi-
fed while he was in Indianapolis last
year, General Harrison, now president OF
the United States, said every honest man
and lover of liberty would rather share the
company of William 0'Brien, in Tulla
more Jail, than that OF the viceroy in Dub.
lin castle. OfConnor said when he took
office in the league, he found many of the
books fragmentary and in arrears, 1t was
impossible to do anything with them. He
did not know whether the books which
the government seized during the admin
istration of Chief Secretary Foster. had
been destroyed. Judge Hammer ordered
inquiries to be made about these books,
O'Connor repealed as a calumny the
suggestion that tenants understood his
advice to them to boycott land grabbers as
a hint to murder or use violence upon
them. He admitted saying it was not
unnatural that a man who saw his family
flung into the road side, should shoot the
%evictor. Justin Mccarthy, member OF
parliament, testified to the horror and dis
nay that the Phoenix Park murders
caused among the Parnellities.

New ORLEANS, May 30.-A case in
the second recorders court established the
fact that voudooism and its disgusting
rites still have a foothold in Louisiana.
For some time there have been promiscu.
GUS gatherings OF whites and blacks in a
house on st. Anthony street. Although
in a retired locality, the assemblages be-
came so noisy that they disturbed the
neighbors. At last the place became a
nuisance and the police were informed.
The result was that the police made a de-
scent on the place while the orgies we're in
full swing. A strange and disgusting
sight met their eyes.
In a circle formed by eight white and
six negro women, and seven negro men,
was a a lf-breed negro and Indian, named
Alexander, who, dressed in silken tights,
performed the typical vou1oo dance.
mdttenng Il weird incarnation, the re-
frain of which was taken up by the men
and women surrounding him. The negro
men we're lying on the floor partly clad,
while the women standing around had
also laid aside much of their ordinary
wearing apparel. When robed for the
street it was found that nearly all the
white women were well dressed and APP
parently respectable. They were horri-
fed TO learn that they we're to be taken to
the police station.
When they reached there they volun-
teered an explanation of their presence IN
such an assembly and in such scant attire.
Alexander. they said, was a Voduoo doc
tor. He had made wonderful cures and
they had full confidence in his power to
relieve their suferings by his incantations.
They stoutly insisted they had experienced
benefit from his treatment and were con-
fident he would effect a thorough cure.
The women were evidently sincere in their
statements. They were of all ages rang
ing. from l6 to so, and several OF them
decidedly handsome.

KANSAS CITY, May 3O.-The storm of
Tuesday vas general over Missouri, Kan

in Western Illinois were inundated, and
at Slater a heavy landslide occurred.

OF the farce comedy to be seen here
o'morrow afternoon and evening, the San
Francisco Post says: The company is
decidedly clever, and though the piece is
noisy, there seems to exist an impression
in the minds of each of the company that
the success of the play depends upon the
work that each individual can accomplish.
Mackie makes as good a Grimes as did
Garfield, while Louise Sanford as
TEDDY" made quite a hit. The rest of
the company are bright and active. An
excellent thing about this company is that
they act with a vim, and there is no time
throughout the three acts when the fun
is allowed : relax. y

town, like all new oil and gas fields, has
its share OF scalpers aud buns, Since
the coming in OF the Warrington well,
known better as theMOntgomery,J Jackson
& Co, gusher, there has been an influx
ofthat class which, by intimidation and
large bonuses, prevents to a greNt extent
the development, The common farmer
is gulled by the extravagOnt offers made
by this class OF men, who seCur6 their
leases aud place them upon the market
at an advanced price, There ia farmer
by the name OF Baker, who lives about
four miles from town, who owns seven.
ty.six acres Of land, and during the past
six months has declined to lease to any
company, Yesterday sharper who
could both pray aud repeat the ten
commandments, called upon him, and
he invited Mr.. Baker to take sacrament,
and he bowed in humble submission
and received in cash ore hundred dol
lars as u bonus upon " 4nty acres Of the
choicest part Of his land, with the mu.
tual understanding that he would re-.
turn the day following to take the re-
mainder OF theseYenty.siX acres and pay
to him $1,000,
On examining the lease, it appear
ed the man hUd secured to himself
the entire tract for five years. This is
one OF the tricks that are being played
upon the people, not ouly in the county
OF Marion, but leases numbering thou
sands OF acres GrO being brought into
Warrington by sharks from the counties
OF Doddridge, Richie aud Wood, and
sold ut from five to twenty-five cents per
acre, 1t is time that the land owner
should open his eyes, and be careful Of
this class OF sharks.
A party from tho county OF Richie
brought leases VI some three Thousand
acres OF land aud sold them to two spec
ulators in this town At five cents, and
they (the speCulatOrsl turned them over
to another liTm iOr twenty-five cents per
acre. The same man wis at one time
leasing for company called the Phia.
delphla. There is no such company
chartered in this State, yet he has thus
swindled the people both in Doddridge
and RitChie counties.
There are honest speoulators here, but
they find it troublesome to contend
against these sharks.
A. ]. Montgomery & Co., who have
quite large territory in Richie county,
propose soon to commence work in that
county.
