Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller has a direc-

OF American braidinE. but specimens Of

An IDcompetent Youth who Was
Chained Up Like "a Wild Bcast.

st. Paul Globe: Henry Miller, a 16-
year-old boy, has beer ordered to be
taken 10 the school for the incompetents
al Faribault by Judge Won Schlegel. The
story Of the boy is "A peculiar one. He
lives with his father and mother at the
old stone tenement row at the corner Of
Eighteenth avenue south and Thirth-firs
street. Weird stories are afloat in South
Minneapolis that the boy has been tied
with ball and chain, and is ferocious az
any wild beast; but this is one of the
ghost stories that soon grow when there
are outward appearances to warrant it,
and the nearly empty old stone building
with is broken windows and doors, is a
ht place to feed the imagination of the
g%arrulous Passer- by who has by nature a
vein of the gossip.
While the boys condition is not 30 bad
az this story makes it out TO be, it is bad
enough. When 3 years old, while sway
ing back and forth ir a swing he went
into a spasm and falling out struck on
his head. Physically he has not seemed
to be injured, but since that time he has
not spoken an intelligent word. He is
now as big as a man and wonderfully de-
velOped about The body and arms. He
will eat little but meat, and so has been
fed on it till he is almost like a beast
with a thick, heavy neck. Kno wing no
other way of keeping him, his parents,
who are hard vOrkipg people, have shut
him in the upper story Of the house, and
there he has lived for years, with no
company except when his food IS thrust
in TO him. His apartments have had
screens fastened at the win
dows, and the bed is nearly
the only furniture. He has an iron chair
TO plav with and this he winds about
himself and sings from one end of the
room TO the other. He is constantly
active, never standing or sitting still
when awake, but like a Gagged beast
strides about the place stopping to rub
his head in the mattress or his body
against the wall and then go on with his
wild freaks. he never lets his eyes rest
on anyone for an instant. lie is clothed
merely in u rough SHIRT. And this is the
way he has lived all his life, just like a
brute. with no lights at night aud no fire
in his room in winter, He is about al all
hours Of The night. humping around in
the dark, pounding on the window and
rafting his chain. When fed he grabs
the food in his hands and il disappears
down his throat like magic.

THE CZ4R'S GIG ANTIC ARMY


His Conntry's Defenses.
Ia accordance with nay promise before
leaving New York | send you herewith
a few facts regarding Russis's military
affairs, writes the great Russian artist
Nasili Verestchagin to the New York
World. The information concerning the
vast organization Of the Cars soldiery |
procured from an army officer Of high
rank, whose name, if / were permitted to
give il, would be at once recognized as a
military authority:
In our preparations for war we are
pessimists, always expecting the worst.
The Russian military organization is
under the direction of General Obrut-
chef, chief of the general staff, with
General Vannovsky. minister of
war. These are assisted by
General Kuropatkine, Skobeleff' 9
bosom friend and chief of
staff. Obrutcheff has devoted a great
deal OF time and attention 10 Russia de
lenses on the German frontier and is CON
seguently unpopular in Berlin. Indeed,
it is said that the young German emperor
during his recent visit 10 St. Petersburg
displayed his dislike of the worthy Rus,
SLAMS organizer by practically snubbinc
him altogether. Like Court Taafe, in
Austria, Obrutchetf was omitted from
the lis. of recipients Of German decora
tons.
Vannovsky is a very efficient and pre-
else officer, but K~uropatkine may be
called the very soul of the military or
ganization in Russia. He is a highly IN,
telligent man, and although his bravery
is no Of that brilliant, that elegant
description az was Skobeleff's he is ex-
ceedingly brave; quite a number of horses
were killed under him, many cases Of
ammunition have at different times been
exploded at his side, he has been wounded
at least five or six timee. and yet he Is
hale and hearty, and is certain to devote
all his strength and abilities to the task
of averting the German onslaught sooner
or later TO bear down ON France and
Russia.
