A Clafrvoyant,s Victim.

KINGSTON. N. Y, June 1s.1ames
Smell, a wealthy farmer of Fordsbush,
has been pronounced insane and placed
in the Utica asylum. Some years ago
Mr.. Smell employed aclairvoyantnamed
Mrs DIR. Xix, to attend and advise him.
She told him he should keep a colt he
had in box stall for sixteen years and
he would then receive $40, 600 for the
animal The horse has been kept
locked in its stall for fourteen years.
Mr.. Smell is still under the delusion
that he is to get $40, 600. This and other
foolish predictions of the female clair
voyant constantly preyed upon his mind.

ORIGINAL PACKAGES.


AteOrney-General KealogG Advises Con.
tinued Prosecution.
TOPEKA, Kan, June 20-Judge Cald-
wells decision has had tendency to
give an impetus to the original package
business and houses are being opened
all over the State. Hon. p. p. Cochran,
in consequence of this, sent . letter to
Attorney-General Kellogg in which he
asked if there was any remedy what
ever under the recent decision of Judge
Caldwell
After discussing the question of what
constitutes an original package At
torney-General Kellogg in his reply said:
These unusual and extraordinary methods
the purpose of evading the laws OF the state
of Kansas. I do not think the United States
Supreme Court il prepared to go to the
length of upholding this method of importa-
ton and sale for the purpose OF violating
the Prohibitory law of this State as author
lied by it's decision.
1 understand that in some instances the
agency claimed is a mere subterfuge, and
that in fact the dealer purchases his liquors
and sells them on his own account, but that
some sort of an understanding exists with
the wholesale house from which he gets the
liquors that he is to be permitted, to adver-
tise as their agent in making the sales.
1t is my advice to watch carefully every
liquors in 'torginal packages or otherwise
in your county. and promptly commence
proceedings against him by injunction, and
under the criminal statutes.
Judge Caldwell intimated in the course OF
the hearing, as I understand, that a party
who buys an original package of intoxicat-
ing liquors may with impunity drink the
same upon the premises. The decision OF
| the United States Supreme Court goes to the
extent of saying that the act Of i'm
portatfon under the commerce clause
of the United States Constitution does
not cease until the importer made the first
| sale of the liquor In the unbroken, original
| packages in which it was imported. But il
goes further. At the conclusion of the
| sale there would be the purchaser with the
unbroken package of liquor in his posses
sion, but both he, the purchaser and the
| liquor in his hand are subject to the police
power of the State, and SO is the building in
| which the sale was made. If the liquor is
permitted to be drunk on the premises, the
place Immediately becomes a nuisance un'
| der the Prohibitory law and it may be abated
| as such and the keeper thereof punished
crminaily for keeping and maintaining such
| nuisance.
| 1t is my view that, notwithstanding the
"original PACKAGE decision, the duty of the
| people of Kansas and the proper law officials
in each county is to still continue to enforce
the Prohib;tory law in all proper ways ant
with increased diligence and activity. Lei
| it be made uncomfortably dangerous fol
ing liquors for the purpose of beverage il

of selling in "original packages or other

AAfOE GEO. W. PkNh, the afternoon at
Mh"auAee' four o'clock the
Pythian hosts. in full uniform, will as
semble for general parade. This will
be the great public event of the meet
ing. AS near as / can estimate from the
data at hand there viii be about lO, 600
men in line. About hundred bands, of
various sizes and degrees of accord, will
furnish music, and about 500 officers,
mounted, will represent the strength of
the cavaleade. The mounted divisions
of the order. of which there are at pres
emit two, will occupy prominent places
in the procession, being either st the
right of the line or forming special es-
cort for the Supreme Lodge officers
The line Of march will be along we'll
paved streets, broad avenues and
through the most attractive part Of
the city. where thousands can witness
the demonstration without crowding or
Inconvenience. That long line of wav-
ing plumes, glittering helmets, flash
ing swords and richly caparisoned
horses and riders, moving to the strains
OF a hundred bands, will be spectacle
we'll worth seeing. Comparisons are
'toderous" as Mrs. Malaprop would say,
but I venture the assertion that the
street demonstration at Milwaukee will
scompare favorably with any militia or
secret order parade ever seen in this
country.

SOME HOPE.

Possibility That the Imprisoned Pennsyl-

DUNBAR, Pa, June 2O.-At four o'clock
yesterday afternoon the men working in
the head of the entry in the mine where
thirty-two men are imprisoned sent
word down the entry to keep quiet.
Every one did so, and in moment
''pick. pick" for a dozen times came the
signal from the inside. Then the men
went to work with renewed vigor.
The imprisoned miners can not be
reached for twenty-four hours yet. The
rescuing party is within a few feet Of
the line leading from the Mahoning to
the Hill Farm mine. But after that is
reached the men will have to drive
through seventy-five feet of coal. The
best authorities in the rescuing party
hold that it will be after twelve o'clock
to-day before the men will be reached.
Bert Wormley, superintendent of the
mine, seen at his house last evening,
said: 81 was sitting down the heading
a short way when the word was passed
to keep quiet. OF course, kept quiet
and then the word came from the face
of the heading that a faint rapping
could be heard. We can not reach them
