then came clicking over the wires the nsws of
the assassination Of a Chisholm, whose heart
blood was reached through the blood of a low
ing daughter; and that fired the great heart Of
the north. 1t is instances of that XII nd recur-
ring year after year that have kept alive this
great sectional strife.
Was the north or the republican party respon-
sible for that atrocious act? Was the north or
the republican party responsible for the mid
night assassinations in the south? Certainly
they cannot be charged to the republican party,
and yet gentlemen rise here In their places
men whom / esteem and respect, and plead tor
peace and plead for an abandonment of these
past issues, while At the same time they con-
tinualiy resurrect them and bring them before

"But Mr.. Chairman, we have heard much of

cOmpilSneu III Onl-
cago by Paul Alexander Johnstone.
Mind-reader Johnstone drove blindfolded
through the crowded streets Of the city
from tho Auditorium to the Grand
Pacific Hotel, and, still with handker-
chief tightly bandaged over his eyes,
picked out of an old register a name that
had been selected for the test by COM
mittee of disinterested citizens. It was
similar feat which killed Bishop and 1t
nearly killed Johnstone. A doctor
worked over him for three hours to drag
him out of an attack of congestion of
the brain into which he had been thrown
by his adventure. The doctor saved him,
but he will never attempt the feat again.
He has had enough.
At o'clock in the afternoon score of
people comprising representatives of the
press and special committee sat In the
south parlor of the Auditorium Hotel
and watched with considerable interest
the nervous antics of a pale-faced young
man In closely buttoned Prince Albert
coat, who was about to undertake what
is conceded the most difficult accomplish
ment In mind-reading.
The committee selected to supervise
the InRdcrtaiing and soc that 10 did not
partake of the appearance Of q "fake"
consisted of DIR. &. +. Butler, b. A.
Johnson, editor of the Lumber Trade
Journal, Charles Lederer, the artist, w.
G Wright and Thaddeus Dean. These
gentlemen sat together in one end of the
room and listened with some incredulity

THE encampment at Camp Custer, Mt
Pleasant, called together larger num-
Der of old veterans than was ever seen
In Isabella County. The feature OF the
affair was midnight bombardment. 1t
was a surprise and the majority OF the
vets and citizens of the town had retired
to sleep after very pleasant day which
had been all the more enjoyable by Corp.
Tanners speech. Just as the clocks
were tolling the midnight hour single
cannon at the extreme right OF the camp
doomed out, followed Immediately by
brisk cannonading all along the line.
Everybody turned out. Lines were hur-
riedly formed and the defense was in
position to repcl any attack by the time
the rudely awakened citizens went tear
ing TO the camp TO sec what was the mat
ter. The next reunion will be held at
Alma.
GEN. FRANKLIN, Treasurer Of the Ma
tional Soldiers Home, has sent Gov. Luce
Ss, 1000 Of the amount due from tho Gen
eral Government. and says he cannot pay
the other 50, 200 because of shortage Of
funds in the treasury.
AMONG the attractions for the Alpen a

woman Vowed to Wear trousers.

Mrs. Kreiger has lived on a ranch on
the San Pablo, Cal, road for over fifteen
years, and during that time she has not
worn the ordinary apparel Of woman. So
accustomed have the people Of that
vicinity become to her and her strange
dress that they no longer notice II.
Up to fifteen years ago Mr.. Kreiger
wore skirts and dresses like any other
of her sex. Indeed, IL appears that she
had more Of them, and that they were Of
more varied forms, textures and colors
than are usually possessed by farmers
wives.
It was shortly before the change In
her manner Of dressing that she married
William Kreiger,a "A thrifty German farmer
and a widower, and went to live on the
ranch.
For time they got along well, but
when he charged her with extravaganza
In dress, she hung up her pretty gowns
and donned male attire.

State, south on State to Jackson, west
on Jackson to Clark, and then north on
Clark to the entrance of tho Grand
Pacific Hotel. Leaving Mr.. Dean at the
reins, the other committeeman went to
the desk and were given register full
Of names. The book was taken out TO
the carriage, and, after somo discussion,
tho committee decided on-the name of j.
G. Butler, Jr., Youngstown, Ohio, the
date being Aug. 25, 1890. Leaving Mr..
Lederer to guard the register, and see
that no one touched IL in the meantime,
the committee drove back to the point of
starting.
During their absence Johnstone paced
the floor like Gagged tiger. DIR. Butler
and Mr.. johnson were selected to take
charge Of him in preparation for the
drive. They blindfolded him and then
placed over his head the velvet cloak.
Then DR.. Butler traced on the wall with
his finger the route they had driven, in
dicating the turns made and the number
of blocks In each direction. When he
concluded the young man clutched his
hand and rushed down the stairway two
steps at time to the carriage. He was
assisted to the scat beside Mr.. Dean,
given the lines, and in moment was
guiding the spirited team along Michi-
gan avenue, while dozen cabs and car
riagos filed with students Of psychical
phenomena ratified along behind. When
the cloaked driver swung his
team west on Adams street. instead OF
Monroe, II looked as though he had

failed at the very start. II was the only
mistake he made. He drove west on
Adams one block to Wabash, then south
to jackson, west to State, south TO Van
Buren, and west to Dearborn. Here he
seemed TO lose his bearings or realize
that a mistake had been made. The
drive up TO this point had been attended
with several difficulties and delays. The
streets were filed with vehicles and q
crowd Of 500 curious people followed tho
carriage. At the corner of Adams and
Dearborn streets the tongue Of the car
riage ran into the wheel Of an express
wagon and the consequent stop and OK
citement probably assisted In dlvcrting
the mind of the driver.
At the corner of Dearborn and Van
Buren, streets Johnstone alighted and
led a member Of the committee to the
middle of the street. After standing
moment he appeared to recover his
bearings, for he hurried back to the car
riage and drove without further hesita-
tlon to Clark street, where he drew up
in front of Cores Hotel, just one block
south of the Grand Pacific, thus proving
that the only error he had made was In

pencil and wrote the name second

"Am 1 rIght?" nervously shouted John
stone.
"You are" shouted the committee. and
the big crowd cheercd the accomplish
ment of wonderful effort.
Johnstone burst into tears when he
heard the shout, and he was carried
away sobbng. His temperature and
pulse we're remarkably high, and his
heartbeat was as rapid as the humping
of car-wheels on the joints of a short
rallied track. Nearly everybody else who
saw the torture he endured while he was
trying to find the name felt about as bad,
and the committee looked like ghosts in
plug hats. When Johnstone came down
from his room he reeled between his at
tendants. He was driven home and
there he had the attack which nearly
ended him. He fell over onto a lounge,
his face became purple, his jaw dropped,
and his eyes lost all their natural light
and seemed about to pop from his head.
"Ths ends him." said his manager,
but there was life in tho boy when DR..
j. III. Law came. The Doctor labored
over him and brought him to conscious
ness.
al will never try 1t again." he NUT
tered, and then became delirious. In his
rawlings he went over the afternoons adj
ventures and three men fought hard to
keep him from jumping through win
dow. The Doctor said the strain had
produced congestion Of the brain.
But he had successfully accomplished
the marvellous feat, and not one of the
committee was In any doubt as to the
exhibition being a genuine case Of mind,
reading, self-induced hypnotism, oI
something else just as wonderful.

turning from Michigan avenue to Adams
Instead or MonrOe. When informed or
his mistake he asked Mr.. Dean TO fix his
mind on the proper direction to take.
Mr.. Dean apparently selected the right
direction, for moment later the vcner-
able gentleman was being violently
pulled along the pavement toward the
Grand Pacific. A jostling crowd fell in
behind. Turning into the entrance, the
mind-reader hurried to the exact spot
where Mr.. Lederer had been left with
the register. Here his strength appeared
to desert him, and he would have faint
ed had not glass of liquor been put to
his lips. He was allowed a few mo-
ments' rest in private room and then
was led behind the desk in the rotunda,
with the book before him and the mem
bers of the committee standing about.
Taking Mr.. Lederer by the hand, the
blindfolded man began rapidly turning
the leaves. When he reached the
proper place he exclaimed:
"That's 1t, Aug. 25! Is that right?
Tell me, quick, is that rlght?"
.,..s.HaS that is. the, right D0ge> said DIR.
again came very near going into ner-
vous collapse, and it was several minutes
before he could proceed.
"Now, gentlemen" said he, "thlnk In
tently of the appearance of this sigma
ture."
He leaned over tho page, beat It with
his hands, passed his palms nervously
across the foreheads OF those about him,
and then asked that coat be thrown
over his head. This was done, and after
further lightning maneuvers suddenly
called out: "A paper and pencil quick"
They were handed him, and leaning on
the book he wrote an almost correct fac
simile of the signature before him, 81.
G. Butler, Jr." As II doubling the cor
rectness of this, he again called for a

to the announcement of what Mr.. john
stone proposed to do.
"A portion OF the committee will leave
here in a carriage and drive by some cir
cuitous route to the Grand Pacific Hotel, /"
said the restless and excited young man.
"There you will select hotel register
and mutually agree upon name therein,
fixing In your minds the appearance Of
the signature and the date of the same.
Then you will return here, and after
have bllndfolded myself and covered my
head with cloak, will drive over the
same route to the hotel and pick out the
name in the register and write IT, Keep
the exact particulars of the drive In your
mind, as l must depend on your recollec-
tion Of what happens to guide me. Don't
drive too far, rs fear that IL will require
all my strength to complete the difficult
test at the hotel"
An open carriage was waiting at the
Michigan avenue entrance of the hotel.
w. c. Wright was to remain with Mr..
Johnstone, and the other five gentlemen
of the committee went down and took
their places In the vehicle, with Mr..
Dean at the reins. 1t was arranged that
he should do all of the driving and not
leave the seat during tho test. The COM
mittee drove north on Michigan avenue
to Monroe street, west on Monroe street
to Wabash avenue, south on Wabash
avenue to Adams, west on Adams 10
