ABOUT The ANARCHISTS, CASE.
Mysteries Surrounding tho Recent Doings
of the Attoruevs.

OF the Attorneys.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2s.-A good deal Of
mystery surrounds the attempt made
last week by counsel for the convicted
anarchists To- in Joliet ~penitentiary,
Schwab, Fielden and Neebe, to secure
such an amendment Of the record Of the
supreme court as will show that the.
accused were not present in person when
the decision OF the supreme court ON tho
appeal was announced. 1t Is given out
that the correction is sought in order
that the case may be taken TO the United
States supreme court, but this proceed
ing would entail considerable expense
and inasmuch as il Is now necessary.
to hold frequent picnics and entertain
ments in order 10 raise funds for the
support of the families OF the executed
and imprisoned men it Is hardly possible
that the relief committee can afford to-
indulge in further litigation. More than
this an appeal to Governor Fifer for the
pardon OF Neebe is still pending, papers
largely and i~niuentially signed having
been filed over q month ago, and an
appeal TO the supreme court would GER
tainly injure his chances. The attor-
neys identified with the affair refuse Il
talk concerning their motives but o n
tent themselves with the statement that
there is something back of it all that
will be developed in due season.

Boone's Haunted House.

BooN, Ia. Sept. 2s.-Every town Is
said to have its haunted house, and
Boone is not lacking in this respect. In
the northern part Of the city stands a
story and a half house which bear the
reputation OF being haunted by the
ghost of q woman, who was murdered
there by her husband. 1t stands lonely
and Stunned by all. The yard surround
ing the house is bare of vegetation, and
the whole place bears a very desolate
look. Numerous attempts have been
made to reside In the house. but no ono
succeeds in Drawing the spirits long.
The seance generally commences about
midnight with o noise Of breaking
crockery and red and blue lights are
seen flashing in the windows, followed
by smothered cries, evidently from o
woman. Then comes thesound of q fall
ing body. and all is silent for a few mo-
ments. The noises are regularly re-
peated from 12 o'clock until 3 In the
morning. A belated pedestrian once
passing that way at night averred he
saw a woman's face at the window, and
though this is not sworn to the noises
and lights are. No one goes that way
at night and the place Is generally
avoided, eve in broad daylight.

Death OF a Mormon Elder.

SALT LAKE CITY, U. r., Sept. 2s.-
At an early hour this morning Bishop
Abram A. Kimball died at Kanosh, Mil
lard county. Years ago Kimball had
over a dozen wives, and there were any
number of women 10 whom he was
sealed. Abram was the son OF Clarissa,
and lived with her in Illinois till she
died, when he emigrated to Utah,
where his father, being one OF the
twelve apostles in the church, soon gave
him preferment. He held various
offices in the church. He was sentenced
TO six months imprisonment in the
Utah pe~nitentiary for unlawful cohabi-
~tation, but President Cleveland par
doned him out after he had served one
month,

fully neglected-overgrown with weeds
and grass. General Grants tomb in
New York City wcald disgrace a bacl;

England's recent naval maneuvers had
one very comic and very instructive

powerful battle ships, claimed to have
captured Aberdeen, and demanded a

instead of demolishing the place with
her heavy guns, made one reply with a
small gun and steamed away as rapidly
as possible. Then it became known
that the electric gear of her big guns
had gone wrong and they could not he

Insane Among Strangers.

Boone, Ia, Sept. 2s.-A Swede named
Ericsson was found wandering around
Dodge township a few days ago and
could give no account of himself. In
fact he could not speak good English.
When asked any questions he would
humble a few broken sentences con-
corning the old country. He is believed
to be demented, and will be held for
examination.

October 10, 1870, to John Paul Jones,

to have been written in the same bold

L~landuduo, Wales, provides a new
illustration Of the old adage that the
course Of true love does not always run
smoothly. One day recently a lady and
gentleman, evidently Of good social
position, were walking on the pier,
when their actions showed that an ''un-
pleasantness' had arisen. Angry looks
and emphatic gesticulations, particu-
larly on the part OF the gcntlen IN, char
acterized their procedure. Eventually
the storm came TO q head by the gentle.
man demanding tho engagement ring
from the lady's finger. She promptly
gave it mp, %whcreupon he took his ring
off and hurled both the love tokens to
the sea with o vim. This seemed to
have the effect OF cooling their anger,
love 0 resumed its sway and they
''made IL up" The gentleman hircd an
expert swimmer to dive for the rings,
but lie was unsuccessful.

Illustrating the changes which French
names suffer in this country, the Buffalo
Commercial says that perhaps no aristo.
cratic French name ever suffered more
from foreign usage than hat of the
early resident and benefactor of Buffalo,
Louis lie C%oulieulx, marquis dc eau
mont. This gentleman is known in this
vicinity as "Look-a-too, or "Liky-too."
1t must be admitted that the name is a
pretty tough one for Americans to
wrestle with.

A thief has interfered with the matrl-
monial plans of a couple in Louisa
county, Virginia. Miss Mary Jones'
prospective husband made her his
banker. He deposited with her So, 800,
and to this sum the young lady added
5000. The couple expected to buy a
home with the money, but the other
day, while Miss Jones was at church, an
employee on her fathers farm entered
the house and extracted the 81, 900 from
her trunk. The marriage, which had
been set for an early date, will not come
of at the appointed time, unless the
money should be recovered.

Mr.. Jones, of Cisco, Tex, got the idea

Under the edge Of a large rock he dis

He kept it up until he had shot twenty
one large snakes. Scores of young ones
got away.
