A BIG FIND.
A Body Turned to Stone and Weighing
Eight Hundred Pounds.

A Body Turned to Stone and Weighing
Eight Hundred Pounds.
\ correspondent from Millersburg,
Ohio, says A big find was made few
DAYS ago near Nashville, eleven miles
from here, by the village undertaken.
Some years ago there died woman
named Mrs. Mary Reynolds, who weighed
about 800 pounds at the time of death,
aud was buried in a secluded country
burying ground.
Last spring her husband died and was
buried beside her. The village under
taker was employed last week to take up
both remains and move them to the
cemetery at Nashville. The body of
Mrs. Reynolds VAS found to have petri-
fed and weighed nearly 500 pounds, so
that it required the combined strength of
dozen men to load and unload it from
wagon.
Several hundred people visited the
cemetery to see the remains, which an.
peared very natural 10 those who knew
her in life

A BURGLAR CAPTURED.

He Carries a Diary Which Makes Dam
aging Disclosures Against Him.
WINSTON, Dec. IA suspicious
looking white man about thirty years of
age and with a weight of 115 pounds
who gives his name as James Prather
was a arrested in a barn loft here today
by the officers. Judging from the strange
mans actions it is evident that he is a
member of the gang which has been
doing so much burglary work in num-
Der of Virginia and North Carolina towns
for the past several months. In Prather' s
possession was found large bundle con-
tanning a number Of valuables, such as
lady's gold breast pin, watch and chain,
and matches beside a large bunch of
keys, which would fit locks of almost
every description, including bank safe.
At the trial before Mayor Mast this morn
ing Prather admitted that he was run
away from Erie, Pa, for stealing. In his
pocket was little note book which con-
tanned the history Of his travels, ect. In it
he says he has been through Virginia
Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania and North
Carolina. The places he has visited in the
last named State are Raleigh Weldon
Henderson, Jonesboro, Greensboro and
Winston.
In another place he states that he stole
his way on trains by riding in box cars
with cattle, merchandise, etc, and in sew
eral instances was locked up in cars
without food or water for two days and
nights at the time. Prather was ordered
back to jail by the mayor to await an
swers from telgrams which have beer
sent to the various states to try to learr
something, if possible, of the man. An
other prisoner in Jail says that Prathe
told him there was enough against hin
to put him in the penitentiary for year
if it could be found out.

ALTHOUGH debate in the senate has
been revived on the force bill, and the
wearisome argument on this measure
has been renewed, the opinion is gem
eral that the bill is practically defunct.
Even should the promoters of this propo-
sition to interpose federal interference
in the matters Of state elections, manage
to secure n ma jority vote in the senate,
there is not one chance in million that
the amended measure can be reached
and acquiesced i'll by the house.
Naturally, the administration is using
its best efforts to secure the passage Of
some sort of elections bill by the present
republican congress, so that it may re-
dound to republican advantage at the
presidential election of 1899. Unless
this can be accomplished the chances of
republican success in 1892 amount to
nothing, since the pronounced demo-
cratic majority in the next house will
interpoSe a barrier against the republi-
can schemes to control elections by the
federal power. Nevertheless the demo-
cratic minority in both house and senate
are on the alert and every means known
to parliamentary tactics will be resorted
to to defeat the force bill, even if it shall
involve an extra session of congress.

ter school district of Waterbury, are here

AN army officer Of high rank and con-
siderable experience in Indian wal fare,
stated that, while General Miles had
brought the hostile Sioux to terms and
an apparent peace had Ebeen seonsum-
mated, he nevertheless entertained
grave apprNhensions that sometime in
the latter part of May or first of June
when the grass had sprOuted, and their
ponies could subsist, these Indians
would entirely break loose, resume hos
tilities and raid the settlements, in which
case great loss of life and property would
ensue. This officer had no confidence in
the good faith of the surrender Of their
arms. He admitted, however, that
these Indians had not been dealt with
fairly and honestly, that they had griev-
ances to which the white citizen would
hardly submit, and he believed in the
policy of keeping faith with them lin all
treaty obligations. He thought that a
more satisfactory condition of affairs
could be brought about if the Indian
,gencies were turned over to army con-
rol, retired army officers appointed
gents, and the army system Of supplies
md accounts substituted for the present
methods.

MIDwINTER is not usually II season Of
active trade. The mild weather at this
period year ago tended, no doubt, to
facilitate building operations. and to in
crease the volume; OF general business.
The present winter is, however, some.
what old fashioned in its character. 1t
accordingly produces lull in many in
dustries. While the business situation
throughout the country is in quiet
, uudition, it is nevertheless noticeable
that the future is regarded in trade
circles with increasing confidence.
This may be-. in Part, due to the reac-
ion from the financial StrIngency and
unsettled state of credit which marked
he last month OF the year. The money
market is now easy in almost every
important financial center of the coun-
try, and the heavy crop of failures at
tributed to the panic has been practl-
cally cleared up.

IT took considerable time for Gov
ernor Hill to make. up his mind as to
whether he really wanted to be senator;
but his friends now say that the close
ness Of the vote on joint ballot in the
legislature induced the governor to
make the sacrifice, with the under
standing that he shall substantially serve
out his term as governor before taking
his seat. Whether his election to the
senate ends his chances as a presidential
candidate is a problem yet to be solved.
The circumstances of his election to the
senate, however, show that he has a
very powerful hold on the New York
democracy.

1AWAI,s DEAD KING

Kalslsaua's Remains Sent Home To-day

arrived from Honolulu, brought the
news that extensive preparations were
being made to welcome the King on his

rade. There was to be q ball on the
