LAWRENCEBURG SENSATION.
j. Craig McLnnahan's Wife sCharge:
Him With Inhuman Treatment,

LAwRENCEBURG, SEPT. 25.-[Spe-
cial. Mira. Minnie McIIanahan yes
terday filed bill i'll the Chsncery
Court at this place, seeking a divorce
from her husband, j. Craig McLana-
han, on the ground of desertion and
cruel and inhuman treatment. The
bill sets out that the couple were
married some years since, and short
Iy after moved to Pinkney, in this
county, where the husband was to
operate an Ore-bauk which had been
leased from the Lawrence Iron Com
pany by his father, j. X. McLanahan,
q wealthy iron man living in Penn
sylvania. The couple have lived at
Pinkney as man and wife, but the
marriage was kept secret from the
father at the request of the son.
On recent trip North, the bill al
Ieges that j. Craig McLanahan cast
off his wife and disavOwed their mar
riage, claiming that she had simply
been living illegally with him.
The wife returned to Piukney and
took possession of their residence, of
which he attempted to fOroibly dis
possess her, but failed. Under the
bill an injunction preventing any in
reference with the wife's possession
WAS granted. Writs OF attachme MT
were also issued and all his property
In this county ha1 been levied on u =
der them. McLanahan has not bee n
here since the trouble began, ana is
now in Pennsylvania.

A Murderer COnfesses His Cri me and

MINNEAPoLIs, MINI, SEPT- 25.-
Conscience has finally forced
Jacob Brown to confess dire
deed that he did eight long ye; MS ago.
Since 1888 Brown has been fleeing
from his crime, but It has pursued
him the length and breadth of the
continent, until in Minneapolis he
confessed to superintendent of Police
Henderson his crime. There is one
man whose heart will give q sound OF
Joy when he hears of the confe IsiOn.
''He is Convict Gray, "lifer" ia the
penitentiary at Chester, Ill. Gray
had been thought the murderer, in
stead of Brown. He was cow fcted
at Salem, Ill. Br5wn's COME ssiOn
will set him free, both from prison
and from disgrace.
Browns story was so strange tale
that the chief at first set him d OWL
as a crank. The man was so ear lest,
however, that the chief ordered bin
locked up and sent a telegram! to
Centralia, ILL.,, where the murder was
done. This morning the ans Wer
came from the Sheriff. Hold The
man, letter coming, will send for
him" The story OF the murder j q a
strange one. Brown, who was trai mp
ing, went into box car to sit Yep.
He stumbled over man in the q ark
and fight ensued. Brown hit his
assailant q death blow with comp
ling pin and fed. Not long af-
ter another tramp came along and
went to sleep in the same car, not
knowing he had o dead man for q
companion. The next morning VIII en-
he arose he found that his arm had
lain in pool Of blood. He tore off
the bloody sleeve and fled. That
sleeve caused his arrest, cOnvicti on
and sentence. He does not eV en-
know who the real murderer wills.
Brown claims to come from q we'll
TODD Southern family, but will not
give his real name.

Wonderful IF True.


BRISTOL, TENN, SEPT. 27.-Dr. 3. F.
Bell, of Parrottsville, Tenn, on SaEur-
day read before the East Tennessee
Medical Society, a paper on wonder
ful case of exfoliation, or the election
of bones from the human body. The
victim of the peculiar disease is a lady
named Sarah Heas, II years of age, re-
siding in Caney Branch. About 81
years ago the doctor was irst called to
his patient, and since that time he has
given her ailment close atteh ion.
During all these years more than 60J
have been expelled from different parts
of Mrs. Heas' body. This eXtoIiaulon,
DIR. Bell said, has taken place without
pain or Inflammation, and soon after
the election of the bones the sores would
quicBl y heal up and nothing that would
be noticed till another batch OF
BONES WOULD START OUT.
The disease began in the index finger
of her left hand. Every bone in that
hand disappeared, and new ONES took
their places. The next member OF the
body attacked was the arm. Then the
shoulder blade and then the lower jaw
bone. Some of the bones worked out
through the throat, and others pene-
trateG the ear. The doctor SAID the pro
cess worked so rapidly that he had sat
near the patient at times and watched
the bones as they came out without any
assistance except that OF nature itself.
Some of Them were six inches in length
and one inch in diameter, while others
were smaller. They were of
EVERY CoNCEIVABLE SHAPE.
When the doctor presented them to
the fraternity for examination, 1T APP
peared to be the contents of an I'M
earthed coffin.
But few of those present thought that
they were anything else bu: bones from
some lower animal. The Doctor says
he will send the wonderful collection 10
al astrological society. 1t has been six
months since the first paper was read to
the society on this remarkabis case.
During this lapse of time the election
has been going on at rapid pace.
In the latter part of this paper the
Doctor said: "rhree weeks ago | called
she began to complain of severe pans
in the regions of the coronoid process
and extending to the ear.
IN LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES
from tho beginning ofth pain, Il section
of bone from the lower jaw Que inch
long and one-fourth of am inch wide
passed through the intervening flesh
and DOCUMENTS and pressed itself thus
entirely disengaged in the left ear"
The doctor concluded his paper with
| the following statement: 81 ne lady has
resided at the same place for the pat
| twenty-One years. She is visited 10y
MANY persons who come To learn the
real truth of the case, and they all &C
away declaring that it il the mos
| wonderful phenomenon that has ever
been heard of in this or any other land
The woman travels but little and has
never been on board a railroad train
She is well connected, having relatives
/ in different parts of Tennessee"

to the wheli g, is startling.
Much OF i;he low yield may be attri-
buted to ut1.savorable lands, or lauds
that are not brought to the requisite
state. of fe rtitity. The sooner the
farmer.is bro ug Int to realize that SUI h
lands are cuI tiv ated at loss, the BET
ter 1t will be.
/ have take n wheat only as an in
stance of the dill Ference between what
is done and what may be done in the
cultivation of srain. Take another
food crop, sthe Irish potato. Or
average yielCi is less than so bushels
per acre. sAe cur tie experiments last
wear showed that the yield could be
increased ten-fOl I, and various per-
sons, widely 6 eparated, working upon
large areas b.V Luethods within the
reach Of every far nler, produced crops
that were froLn hree to f1Ve times
greater than the Yerage.
Passing to Al 10Th er staple crop, cot
ton, we find tile average to be about
36-1OO of a bale per acre, while at least
one intelligeult cultiva tor in Georgia
has succeeded in growing three bales,
and expresses him self as believing
tnat the limit is yet far from having
been attained.
The second need Of the farmer is
the application of b usiness principles

His crop is Dol light, IN the sense that
he must pay i'll, either labor or money

the cost of plalllting, cuItivating and
harvesting his crop, and the cost OF
the seed. WhIile it would be futile
to attempt herr to estimate the cost
of any given Gll Op, owing TO the differ

be produced b1I different men and i'll
different regigSaI Is, we think we may
say without fts ar of contradiction that
| the average crop (of stap]es) does not
reDdu the c0SEl of production. This,
by basing the les Inmate of cost only
upon the iteF as considered. If in ad-

plant food absorbed by the crop, the
| grower is left 1o't only poorer IN purse
but with poorer land upon which to
grow his successive crops. In regard
