Two weeks age George Heidecker, a
farmer Of Green township, Pa, appar-
emily died very suddenly Of what was
supposed to be heart failure. The re-
mains were buried four days later at
Erie, and temporarily placed in lot in
the Erie cemetery. An account says:
'The coffin was moved on Monday and
opened at the request of Heidecker's
family. The body was found to be
turned around, face downward, and the
interior Of the casket bore traces Of a
severe struggle. The clothing abou,
the head and neck had been torn into
shreds, as was likewise the lining Of the
coffin. Marks Of finger clutches on the
face, throat and neck told OF the de.
spair of the revivified man who tore his
own flesh. Several fingers had been
entirely bitten off and the hands torn
with the teeth"

THREE or four years ago the Rev.
Mr.. Baxter Of England, delivered lee
ture in this country on his hobby, THE

predicted, that dread event would
take place in the year 1901, and that
General Boulanger, who would then be

be the anti-Christ foretold in the Apoc-
alypse. Nothing has been heard from
Mr.. Baxter since the death of General
Boulanger, but it is probable that he

The window slsss trust, known as The

at a preliminary meeting on Monday
some surprising matters were brought
to light in regard TO the failure OF the
big trust TO begin operation on January
l. 1t had been generally given out that
the trust was to have started on that
date. The principal cause foT the change
OF programme lies in the circumstance
that none OF the subscribed capital Of
the concern had as yet been paid in by
the members beyond the small sum re-
quired TO candnct the few meetings that
had taxed place since the organization Of
the company.
Yesterday it was proposed that the
